Every city has a directory of its in
habitants, giving the names of wage
earners, and the addresses where
each may be found. If you don't
know a persons name but do know
that he is a paperhanger, the CLASH
fed business directory will locate
him for you. a directory of the
useful minerals in the United States,
on much the same plan, has just
been published by the United States
Geological Survey. If you want to
know where any one of the 400 use
full minerals occurs, this directory
gives the list of localities IN each
State where your mineral will be
found. If you do not know the name
of the mineral but do know that it
is an ore of silver or manganese, or
carries asphalt or radium, the CLOS
sary will guide you to it.
The material in this bulletin is in
two distinct parts. The first part
| minerals in each of the States, be-
| gninning with Alabama and end
ing with Wyoming. Under the name
of each State the minerals found
in that State are given in alphabetic
sequence, and after each mineral
name is given list of the places
where the mineral is found. The
second part Is a glossary OIL more
than 425 names. Each definition is
followed by list of the States in
which the mineral occurs. The CLOS
| sary is therefore virtually an index
to the first part.
Some mineral aggregates, such as
clay, granite, limestone, sand, and
sandstone, are included because they
constitute a very considerable part
of the mineral production of the
| country.
This publication should be useful to
many classes of people in many ways
If some one wants to sell you stock
in Texas oil company the report will
tell you in what counties in Texas
oil is produced and in what other
counties it may eventually be found &.
If your wife wears a bloodstone lava
lier, the the report gives you the
locality in the United States where
that stone is known to occur If

where to find the gypsum and gives
the location of your nearest lime.

New Fruits

The Pacific Coast Packer in a re-
cent issue contained the following
item of interest to readers of these
columns:
"David Fairchild. in charge of the
office of plant introduction Of the
bureau of new plant industry. De-
partment of Agriculture. Washington,
D. c., says that comparatively few
people realize what wonderful work
is done by the governments bureau
of new plant industry.
''The government has explorers in
all parts of the world searching for
material for crossing and expert
mental purposes, says Mr.. Fair
child. There are three men now in
the interior of Brazil hunting for
specimens of the original navel orange
which was brought to this country in
1870. Only twelve trees we're brought
here and from them have sprung the
millions of such trees now growing
in California. Our explorers are try
ing to find. if possible, better strain
Of this orange in Brazil.
"They have found a fruit there
called by the natives 'jabolicaba'
which is as wierd looking as its name
sounds. 1t is coal black and grows
directly from the trunk and limbs of
its parent tree. 1t tastes something
like the grape and grows in a climate
about the same as southern Florida.
We have received some specimens of
the fruit in alcohol, but it has never
been imported to the United States.
Efforts will be made to grow the fruit
in this country. Our explorers have

when the insect is first Matched.
Quassia and whale oil soap has been
used for many years by hop growers
in combating the hop aphis and
many of our fruit growers prefer
using such spray. During the past
few years tobacco sprays have become
very popular. A commercial tobacco
spray called "BlackIeaf 40" is giving
excellent results when properly used.
1t is quite expensive but very con-
centrated and can be diluted to 800
or 1000 times it's bulk in water.

APPLE SCAB.

This is a fungous disease which
most commonly developes on and
takes it's nourishment from the leaf
and fruit of the apple. The spore
from which this parasitic plant grows
is very small but under favorable

of fruit in Brazil which they will
bring home.
"We also have a man in Dongola,
Egypt, far up the river Nile. who is
searching for varieties of the date
palm, native to that region. He is
sending in suckers which will be ex-
perimented with in the southwestern
part OF the United States. Another
of our explorers recently left for Kan
sau province, Northwest China, for
specimens of hardy plants, among
them peaches and almonds, which, it
is believed, may be grown success
fully in Pennsylvania. These trees
have wonderfully hardy roots and
will be able to stand the long hard
winters of this climate, which, as it
is we'll known, is most destructive to
peach trees.
'Our bureau is on the alert for
diseased plants imported to this
country. Those afflicted are at once
burned and those suspected of having
any disease are placed in quarantine
for at least three months. Only last
week we burned more than a thousand
Chinese persimmon trees because
