No fruit grower In West Virginia Is
safe unless he applies a thorough dor
mant spray to his orchard. The San
Jose Scale is so prevalent throughout
the state that no one need be surprised
to find it established in his plantation.
This orchard pest can be successfully
.combatted only by applications of
strong caustic or corrosive sprays
while the tree is not in leaf. While
the scale is the most important or
chard enemy to be combatted by dor
mant sprays, it is by no means the
only one.S The Blister Mite may be
controlled and some eggs of the Oyster
Shell and Security Scales may be killed,
as may also the tiny black eggs of the
Green Aphis. Among diseases, the
peach leaf curl is held in check by a
winter application, while the first blow
against apple scab is dealt at this time.

Sulphur.

Sulphur.
For equipment one should have a
large kettle holding sixty or seventy
gallons. This will allow a full barrel
of liquid boiled at time without dan
ger of boiling over. Better yet
would be boiler where live steam
could be produced and used for the
tanks o. barrels could be used for boil
ing.
To make fifty gallons of the con.
centrated solution, weigh out forty
pounds of lime and Stake it in about
ten gallons of hot water in the boiling
vessel, adding the Jumps of lime grad
ually to avoid too violent boiling
Eighty pounds of sulphur should in the
meantime be weighed out and moisten
ed, stirring constantly until it makes a
thin paste. This paste should be grad
ually poured into the shaking lime and
stirred to prevent the formation OF
Jumps. When the shaking has finished
add water to bring the amount up to
fifty gallons and boil gently for one
hour.
The cost of this homemade solution
will not exceed $3.50 for actual mate
rails. Commercial sulphur flour may
be purchased for $3.50 to $1.60 per 100

He was father of a bill author
izing the names of farms and the
protection of the name: he assis-
ted in procuring an appropriation
of $17, 600 for the purpose of ex-
perimenting upon the state farm
near DR.. Resner's and others
with a view of ascertaining what
crops are best adapted to the soil
of the Flathead reservation: he
assisted Mr.. Rhodes in putting
through both houses a joint reso-
luton relating to the suspended
entries upon the Flathead res
ervation, and asking the Interior
department to approve of the fill
ings upon this land. He insti-
gated and took a prominent part
in the joint investigation of the
irrigation and Carey projects of
Montana, and largely through
his efforts recommendations were
made to congress which will be
Of vast Importance to the set
tiers. 1t is believed that these
recommendations coming from
the legislature of Montana will
have some force and effect upon
the Interior department and con-
gress.
! In the states of Iowa, North
Dakota and South Dakota, prac-
tically all of the moneys belong
ing to the permanent schools,
charitable and educational funds,
are loaned upon farm mortgages
in their state. In the state of
Montana, not one single dollar of
the $11, 600, 600 now in the fund
is loaned upon farm securities,
but every dollar is loaned upon
various kinds of bonds. 1t was
Mr.. Brewers belief that mas
much as all this money was de-
rived from the sale of land, at
least a portion of it should be
loaned out in agricultural sec
tons upon farm lands. Acting
upon this belief, he drew and in
troduced into the house, bill
providing for the loan of por-
tion of this money upon farm
lands at 6 per cent interest. The
bill was referred to a committee
of the house, who promptly at
tempted to kill it by reporting it
unfavorably. BY a majority of
the votes of the house members,
their report was not approved
and the bill was printed and
placed on general order. Then
it went into the hands of the
steering committee, who refused
to let it come before the house
for vote, but by majority vote
of the house was ordered to re-
port the bill out. Against ire
mendous opposition by those who
wished to help special interests
instead of the general public, the
bill was finally passed by the
house and transmitted to the
senate which proceeded to kill it
and protect the interests of their
masters, who, by the way, were
not the farmers of Montana. I
Had this bill become law, the
farmers would have had a way
to obtain cheap and ready money
which they sorely need. 1t is
Mr.. Brewers regret that he was
unable to accomplish the enact
ment into law of this measure,
but surely none can doubt but he
did all he could to accomplish the
object. The above record looks
good to us. Sixty days is a short
time in which to accomplish the

her everYtopoprtunity for the best
work of her career. 1t is a play that
depends absolutely on its characters
tic types and the handling Of them
for success, and Miss Ellington and
the company supporting her supply
every demand. In the principal role
this delightful actress resorts neither
to gorgeous dress or jewels to en-
nance her value. It is her splendid
acting that has carried the play to
success. The character she portrays
is that of young wife of lower
East Slider, New York, a stevedore,
who as is natural to all women OF
normal mind and health, desires ma
ternity. On every side she is con-
fronted with the argument that chill

Monday, Jan. 81.
The dramatization by Mr.. Baker is
said to be excellent. He has carefully
followed the lines and situations of the
book, making only a few minor
changes that have bettered the action
of the play. Frau Bauer and her lover
engage in many amusing tits, the
goose girl comes into wealth and the
love between her and the vintner
grows, as does the affections of Car
michael and the Princess. There are
rumors of war, talks of spies, and the

Cullinane's natural object or to
Michael Angelo understanding as
you think in terms Of life or in terms
of art, You will find "Kindling'
exemplifying the union of Art and
Life.
So with the acting. Miss Margaret
Ellington saw a Maggie Schultz,
Clipped away everything superfiuous-
including Miss Illington-and let 9TH
ers see Maggie Schultz. The actors
about her have visualized life, too, and
given others the vision.
Life in tenements and away from
tenements will go on for time as
this play Of "Kindling" shows it. But
it will not go on that way for very
long. Not because 'Kindling" will
amend it. But because facts that grip
the heart, as their portrayal grips the
heart, cannot last very long. The
heart cannot stand the pressure. This
play is in the class with the book
Uncle Toms Cabin"-in the social
class with the book.
| 1t is curious how our drama anc
our politics and our industry get al
mixed up-curious especially to- those
who know how inevitable and historic
the mingling is. The miserable
"cadet" and the wealthy tenement
owner are victims OF that which makes
them parasites. They are effects al
well as causes. It is touch of un
conscious, and SO of supreme, art tina
are "roses in Wyoming" for Maggi'
and Heine and the baby, but no wa.

For the way out that the objectiv
art of the play does not show we loo
from the stage, to the political and il
dustrial movements of the time.
