OYSTER WEEK.
Norwich Citizens Falling Into Line in
 the Campaign This Week.

Norwich oyster dealers who have enlisted in "Oyster Week" campaign which is carried on in a country-wi way this week, said on Monday and Tuesday that Norwich householders were evidently going to get in line with all the rest of the country in add ing oysters particularly to their bill of fare for this week and the local orders were already showing the ef- feet of the publicity campaign on the subject that has been carried on by the National Oyster Growers and Dealers association.
 In speaking of the Oyster Week cam paign, one of the local dealers said Tuesday that if sold by weight, oy- sters would cost about P cents per pound According to a recent issue of the Farmers Bulletin, published by the department of agriculture, the cost of foodstuffs to the consumer at mar ket prices, when refuse and waste were considered was: Chicken, S5.sc per pound; choice cuts of beef and lamb 30 to 40c per pound If sold by weight. opened oysters would cost about z2c per pound, but few people realize that about one-ta1f the weight of meats Is in the bones, gristle and waste. Oy sters. although costing much less by weight, have no bones or griStie to dis card.
 Thus oysters are not only 8 deli
  but are an economical and wholesome food for those of limited means. They furnish an agreeable change from the monotony of ordinary foods and an- swer the frequent question of the pug zled housewife, What shall we next have to eat ?'' They should not be re- garded as a rare treat, but az a fre- quent and appetiZing item of regular food supply.
 Oysters are now caught by steamers, power boats and fast sailing vessels. delivered promptly at the shipping houses They are thus not subject to the delays formerly experienced. They are handled and packed by the best methods in sterilized receptacles. They are kept cold by artificial refrigeration and by pure artificial ice. Oysters, either in shell or opened, are now ship ped from the Atlantic coast to the Pa cific arriving there in as perfect con- dition as when taken from the water There is no place in the United States or British America where the rail- roads penetrate in which oysters can- not be received in perfect condition.
 As a backing for the use of the oy- ster, the dealers are quoting the fol- lowing opinions:

EASY CHANGE. When Coffee Is Doing Harm.

A lady writes from the land of cotton of the results of four years use of the food beverage, Postum:
 Ever since I can remember we had used coffee three times a day. It had a more or less injurious effect upon us all, and I suffered almost death from indigestion and nervousness.
 T know it was coffee, because when I would leave it off for few days I would feel better. But it was hard to give coffee up, even though I realized how harmful 1t was to me.
 At last I found a perfectly easy way to make the change. Four years ago I abandoned the coffee habit and began to drink Pestum and 1 also in- nuenced the rest of the family to do the same.
 Even the children are allowed to drink it as freely as they do water And it has done us all great good. I no longer suffer from indigestion, and my nerves are in admirable tone since I began to use POstun. We never use coffee any more.
 We appreciate Pestum as a de- Hghtful and heaIthfuI beverage, which not only inVigorates but supplies the best of RoouFishment as we'll" Name given by Postum Co, Battle Creek, Mich.

must be such that all the people of a
district. whether fruitgroWers or not,
have their attention called to such
problems showing them that it affects
them whether they be a merchant,
blacksmith. lawyer or any other pro-
fessional man.
When the business men of section
stop and think what the calamity of
the destruction of any crop means to
them or what the annihilation of the
orchards would mean they always
come to the rescue and give their CO.
operation in the eradication of the
trouble or the general betterment Of
the conditions. When people are prop
erly educated along any special line
co-operation is not hard to secure Ig-
norance is bane to prosperity or de-
yelopment Of any kind. In many in
stances it has been more difficult to
control the people than to eradicate
the blight. We can control the blight
by the destruction of the diseased
trees, but the antagonism Of the peo-
pie can only be overcome by educa-
ton. For the past three years we
lave been fighting the blight and in
s..me sections the people have fought
us, but today in the fruit sections the
utmost cooperation Is being given the
work. Business men of all classes in
dorse and uphold the work and lend a
hand of assistance wherever they can.
The blight today is the worst and
most dangerous enemy that the fruit
grower has. Some people do not stop
and realize what it means to have In
jeopardy the immense horticultural
development of the entire northwest.
Millions Of dollars have been brought
into this state and today is repre-
sented by orchard properties. Every
dollar brought into the state for this
or any other enterprise enhances the
value Of the entire state and every
property owner ortcitizen of the state
Is much richer thereby, hence it is the
duty of every citizen to give his best
support for the welfare of such an en-
terprise.
1t has been more than 100 years
since this disease has been known in
the United States. DR. Burrill of the
University of Illinois discovered the
organism or germ of the disease about
1873 and since that time some of the

Owing to the present condition of
the blight infection which has, within
the past few days, developed upon the
trees in some parts of Missoula and
other sections o. the state, it seems
advisable to present few words of
explanation, as many people contend,
and perhaps honestly believe, that it is
a spray burn, or condition caused
terials. Fortunately-thoug unfortu-
nateiy for the owners of the blight
stricken trees--there are yards in
which tlecs are located, streets and
blocks OF the city where no trees have
been sprayed. and also orchards in the
Orchard Homes sections, Bitter Root
valley and other valleys where spray
pump has never been taken Within the
enclosure Of the property, and the
trees show the same condition. 1t is
simply an infection of the blight. We
will be glad to furnish anybody with
printed matter setting forth the cause
OF the disease, it's action, treatment
and remedies.
As a rule people do not read the
tens of literature which are sent them.
For the past three years the disease
has from time to time been described
in the state papers. Cuts of the micro
organism which causes it have accom-
panied the printed matter SO that all
people should know it's history and it's

Wood has cabled to Major General

Pershing had been given free hand

Under the first factor comes the
technical side of the question which
can be known in its entirety by seek
ing the printed information available.
Montana has as stringent horticul-
tural laws as any state and they are
sufficient to cover all exigeneies of the
case, II we had more funds to put
more trained men into the field we.
will be obliged to relieve this situa-
ton in a measure by resorting to a
provision of the law which provides
for the levying of the cost of eradica-
tion of any pest or disease from the
orchards upon the property itself. A.
bill was unanimously passed by the
last legislature levying d tax upon ey-
cry orchard acre in the state for this
purpose, but by accident it failed to
be properly signed before adjourn
ment, hence was of no avail. The di-
rect provision of the law Is more.
