Spray For Cooling Moth And Plum
Curculio

The School of Horticulture of the
Maryland Agricultural and Experiment
Station has just completed the spraying
and pruning demonstrations inaugural
ed in February. There has been a
great demand for these demonstrations
in all parts of the State and they have
been largely attended. Growers are
recognizing more and more the impor-
lance of starting the trees right by
pruning them properly.
The time will soon be at hand when
apple orchards should be sprayed with
the concentrated lime-sulfur solution
1-4O, and lbs. of arsenate of lead to
so gallons of water, applied just as the
blossoms fall, to prevent injury from
Cooling Moth, Curculio and various
diseases. Peach orchards should be
sprayed just as the shucks are falling
from the young peaches with the self
boiled lime-sulfur, 8 pounds lime, 8
pounds sulfur and pounds arsenate of
lead to so gallons of water.
The School of Horticulture desires to
also conduct as many spraying demon
strations for these pests as possible, to
show the growers of any community
how orchards can be made to yield fine
quality fruit with such treatment.
Anyone desiring bulletins on treating
orchards for these pests or desire
spraying demonstrations in their com
munity should communicate at once
with the School of Horticulture,
Maryland Agricultural College and
Experiment Station.

Jump On The Fly.

Now is the time to begin the fight
against the housefy. For every fly
that you kill this month you will re-
duce the fly population in the summer
by several billions.
1t is said that one fly on an average
lays in season twelve sets of eggs
At the lowest estimate sixty flies are
Matched from each laying. 1t sis fair
to say that fifty. per cent of the eggs
Matched Will be females. Each female
will beset others, so that in one sea-
son single fly will, by most conser-
vative count, produce seven billions of
flies.
Just as the bee gathers pollen from
the flowers on its legs, so does the fly
collect germs. Typhoid fever, tuber.
culosis, and mary other disease are
carried in this way from thelsick room
to your home, Wherever there is filth
there the fly swarms. The fly which
lights upon your lips may menace
your life with disease germs. The flies
that buzz about your kitchen or your
dining room may literally be poisoning
your food.
Absolute cleanliness around houses
stables and outbuildings seems to be
the only solution of the fly problem
offered by those who have made &
study of it.. The fly question seems t.
be in reality dirt question. 'Ne
dirt, no flies," is what sanitarians tel
US. Flies spread disease. Therefore
anyone who makes an effort to reduce
their number performs a distinct ser
vice to humanity.

poouie Got His Meatl

There was once dog who used to
go to market with his master every
morning. He was always given cent
to buy meat for himself.
II the butcher took the money be-
fore he gave him the meat the dog
would growl and show his teeth.
One day the master was called away
on business and was gone for several
days. On his return he told Romp to
bring him his slippers. Romp did not
obey, but skunk into corner, and the
slippers could not be found.
Some hours later the gentleman went
to the postoff1ce, and Romp went with
him.
AS he passed the market the butcher
asked him to step into the store and
gave him his slippers.
Romp had carried them down one at
a time to pay for his meat.

Business and Morality.

You can not divorce business from
morality. You will be rewarded
hereafter, if not always here, &C
cording to what you make of your
self as a man in the ways Of noble
ness and integrity-Bossier Banner
All of which is indisputable, but
there are individuals who will risk
the hereafter. However, there is
some solace in the reflection that
whatever the dollars at the final end
the millionaire is equalized with the
pauper. In good deeds is the reward
that comes from the ways Of no
bleness anfdY integrity" These never
corrode and are beyond the reach
of swindlers and thieves.

A MEASUREMENT.
Applied Inadvertently to General
Pickett--Married After. the War.

In several references to Genera
Pickett in newspapers. editorially al
we'll as news, it has been stated tha
he was married and that he ha(
written his wife preceding his his
torical assault at Gettysburg, a let
ter filled with words of loveful de-
votion. This statement is mislead-
ing. AS q fact, it is incorrect.
He was not then married.
AS related in Southern history
Pickett handed the note to Long
street, who had strongly objected to
the proposed assault With the forces
available TO Pickett's question
General, shall ] advance?'a Long
street said nothing, but Simply nod
ded Pickett then accepted the duty
with apparent confidence and rods
gaily to his command, before going
into the fight, writing on the back
of the envelope of a letter to his
betrothed: IF Old Pete,s nod means
death, then good bye and may God
bless you, little one
Old Pete was Longstreet.
General Pickett was married to
his sweetheart soon after the war,
and engaged in business at Rich
mond. His married life was ideal. It
was filled with happiness, the joy
full contentment, the comradeship
which strengthens the ties of two
hearts, bound by the love which
grows with the years. General Pick
EFT died at Norfolk, Va, July 80,
1875. He is survived by his wife, who
is an interesting and valuable con-
tributor Of "reminiscences and Incl
dents Of the war, which are pub
lished in metropolitan newspapers.

The Bulgarians Cry Enough.

The Bulgarians are fighters. They
have been fighting almost since the
flood. in the recent war against
Turkcy0the Bulgarlans fought nero
ically, but without the aid OF theli
allies, the Greeks and the Servlans,
they would have in all probability
been defeated. In defeating Turkey
the Bulgarians and their allies were
relieved Of the yoke OF oppression,
and, as should have been expected
in reason, the Bulgarians and their
allies should have formed COM
pact that would have made them
strong and powerful, but if the Bull
garians are fighters, they are also
greedy, and somewhat on the order
OF the bully.
Relying on the strength Of their
numbers against any one Of the al
lies, the Bulgars declined to con-
slider a fair division Of the spolls OF
war resulting from their defeat Of
Turkey. In their attempt to grab
and hold If not all at least the ma
jor part Of the spoils, the Bulgars
were frustrated by the combination
Of their allies, when what was pos
sible through peaceable negotiations
they attempted to secure By force.
Not only have the Bulgars been
whipped, but they have appealed to
Russia to bring about cessation Of
hostilities as preliminary toGpeaee.
According to what appears TO be
an authentic report, more than
$4,000 men have been killed and
wounded during the thirty days Of
this useless struggle, precipjitated
BY inordinate greed, stimulated by
overbearing presumption and the
selflshness Of the bully. What will
the Bulgars have gained and &C
eomplished? Nothing. Indeed, the
Bulgars have lost prestige, they
have sacrificed men who can not be
replaced, they have increased the
numbers of their widows and or
phans and have impoverished them
selves and may be subjects Of self
congratulations should they escape
the contempt .of their allies by
whom they have been licked to
finish.
The defeat Of the Bulgars may
complicate the situation in Europe,
but with mediation and wise coun-
sci the long predicted war between
the nations of Europe will be avert
ed. "A European war would be a ca
lamity, The horror of which can
scarcely be contemplated.

The Hight 10 Rule the Currency.


rl'he Comm Ilelr: Spending to !
representative Of. the New YorE,
| American, Senator Owen, chairman
OF the Senate Finance Committee,
explained the terms OF the admins
tration currency bill. which he be-
lieves will be enacted into law be
fore the end Of September.
Some Of The larger interests of
the country" he said, "having set
their heart upon the passage of the
Aldrich bill and having expended
large effort in educating the coun-
try in favor of the Aldrich plan,
have been disconnected in two very
important particulars. First, the AL
drich bill gave control Of the pro
posed system to the banks Of the
country, and, secondly, authorizing
the banks to issue the currency to
the country under this system as
bank currency.
we have been unable 10 approve
these principles Of the Aldrich bill.
believing that the Federal reserve
banks, having been established
purely for the purpose Of stabilizing
the commercial and financial opera
tons Of the people Of the United
States, should be governed exclu-
sively by the people Of the United
States, and in establishing the Fed
eral reserve board to exercise their
governing function We do not think
it proper to permit private persons
to have representation upon such
governing board,
I'VE think it no more reasonable
to grant this than to authorize the
railroads to have representation and
exercise a part of the governing
power of the Interstate Commerce
Commission. Tt would, perhaps, be
but little different if the beef pack
ers should demand representation
in administering the pure food act.
1T has been suggested that some
of the largest national banks might
60 out Of this system and become
state banks. We feel justified in say
ing that there is no reason to APP
prehend that any national bank will
go out of the system because Of the
provision Of this bill, but that they
will generally rejoice at the oppor-
tunity afforded them of having a
more stable condition in the tinan-
cial and commercial world
Why should not the government
rule the currency? In France, in|
England and in Germany panics do
rot occur, nor would an attempt at
a panic be tolerated an instant. Pan
les should be made impossible in
the United States. Panics are due to
wild speculation, to the scheming of
individuals who involve millions of
The people in ruin, while a compar-
alive few become the beneficiaries.
The currency Of the United Statesl
should not be controlled by the
banks but the government should
the banks to the fullest
limit compatible with that surety Of
safety and protection that would
secure sound, substantial financing,
against every scheme of a panic or
effort at disturbing the money mar
LET for its legitimate functions.
