FRIDAY EVENING
ADIEU

This is the last issue OF the Appeal
under the present management. To-
morrow the paper and business goes
into new hands. 1t once again becomes
our duty, which is also a pleasure, to
thank the patrons and friends we have
made during our i~ncumbency. We
have gained many strong and loyal
friends and have received liberal SUP
port in a business way for which we
are more than grateful. We feel that
we have received a fair share of the
public patronage, and that is all we
asked. We step nj with this issue
and turn the affairs of this paper over
to the new managers.
This is nothing new to us as it is
the third time that we have done the
same thing and it is becoming to be
a habit, apparently. = The situation is
well understood by the general pub
lie and further comments are not nee
essary. We bid adieu with a kindly
feeling for all.

But, Of late years, q great work has

Take, for instance, the elm tree.
The spraying Of large elms Is, of

cause great injury to these trees, are
less susceptible to arsenical poisOns

and efficient method of protecting the
tree is the preparation Of adhesive
