Gave HeckIers a Chance.

At one time he Republicans of Chi
cago were out and were fighting De-
mocracy on industrial conditions and
the putative helplessness of situa-
ton which did not let the Republic
ans in. A parade had started off and
was well on it's way-nearly to the
file closers-when a ward boss saw
that two lighted tram parencies lacked
carriers. He looked around hurriedly
and noticed that one of his retainers
was idle. Here" he yelled, "shoul-
der this and get in line" The shang-
haied recruit was a gambler who
busted himself in ward politics on oc-
casions, but for the most stuck to his
trade when trade was possible. AS he
hoisted the lighted legend, open up
the mills and factories" there was a
chorus of derisive yells from the side
walk: "Never mind the mills. Open
up the poker games"

CRoWN-ROT OF FRUIT TREES
Extended Investigation of Disease
Shows That 1t Is Due Chiefly
-~ to Winter Injury.

CrQwn-rot is a disease of trees in
which patches Of dead bark or bare
wood occur on the trunk near the sur
face of the soil. An extended investi-
cation of this disease shows that it
is due chiefly to winter injury. 1t is
most liable to occur on trees in wind
exposed situations, particularly on
those which have made very rapid
growth and gone into the winter with
their wood unripened. Hence, it ap-
pears probable that it may be at least
partially prevented by planting the
varieties which are least susceptible,
providing windbreaks, heading low,
avoiding excessive rapid growth and
inducing early ripening Of the wood.
In order to prevent trunk rot which
often follows the initial injury the
areas of dead bark should be detected
and treated as early as possible. The
trunks of young apple trees should
be carefully examined twice a year
May and July. Wherever dead bark
is found it should be carefully cut
away, the wound disinfected with
/ to 1000 solution of corrosive sub
Innate and then covered with grating
wax or gas tar to keep out moisture
and induce healing.-Geneva Expert

WOODRUFF GRAPE QUALITIES
For Hardness and Productiveness of
Vine IL Has About All That
Could Be Desired.

One Of the grapes not particularly
well known, yet possessing some
merit, is the Woodruff. So far as the
hardness and productiveness of the
vine are concerned, it has about all
that could be desired. But the fruit
is lacking In some Of the character
istics that go for sustained popularity.
The Woodruff is a handsome, snowy,
brick-red grape with large clusters and
berries, according to the careful de-
scriptton appearing In the recent COM
pilation, Grapes of New York" under
the auspices Of U. P. Hedrick.
While attractive in appearance, the
flesh is coarse and the flavor foxy. 1t
ripens a little before or with the Con-
cord and comes on the market at
good time, especially for red grape.
II Is not considered a good keeper
and shows a tendency to crack and
shatter. Thus the Woodruff has not
been popular for either vineyard or
garden. The Woodruff came from c.
w. Woodruff of Ann Arbor, Mich, who
reported it a chance seeding. which
came up in 1874. and fruited for the
first time three years later.

DEMAND is FOR ABLE MAN
High Positions Waiting for Those
Who Are Competent Properly
to Fill Them.

We know big firm in one of the
Oldest and most important industries
in this country which has been hunt
ing for over a yeyar for man to
whom to pay $4,000, and they cannot
find him, writes the editor Of the
American Machinist.
! We know an executive who wants
two or three men as assistants; if he
could find them in his plant he would
gladly pay them $40 week He has
tried considerable number in these
positions during the past year, but
without success as yet. He feels that
he is positively hampered by the lack
Of them.
We know that there is an active de-
mand for $4,000 men, and we can
readily believe that there is keen
demand for $4,000 men.
It is remarkable that in a plant en-
ploying, say a thousand men, there are
SO few who raise themselves above
their fellows far enough to be con
spicuous to the management. And
even, Of those few, not all have the
initiative, the ginger, and faculty Of
being thorough that would make them
of value as assistants to the execu
tive. What a god-send to the engineer
is the draughtsman who can do his
own thinking, and dig out the solution
of a problem somehow without con
slant prodding and pointing from the
boss!

extent on the twigs.
Scab also affects apple trees and
fruit, but usually it is not quite SO
serious as the pear scab.
Scab may be controlled by spraying
with either bordeaux mixture (3-5-5O)
or lime-sulphur. The first application
should be made just as the leaves are
unfolding, and another should be
given Immediately after the blossoms
fall. The leaves should be plowed
under or gathered up and burned.
