Bulletin Issued TO FruitgrOWers
Series Of Spraying Demonstrations
Called TO Attention OF
HortIculturists.

The state horticu tural commission,
through J. Edward Taylor, state in
spector, assisted by the various coun-
ty inspectors, Is planning a series of
demonstrations TO teach the farmers
of the state the best methods of spray
ing apple and other fruit trees and
the necessity for such spraying.
As this season is about the best
time to demonstrate the spraying of
codling moths. which do immense
damage to fruit trees, the demonstra-
tons will be begun at once In every
part of the state.
That the department intends TO give
the orchardists fair warning that
fall If it Is wormy, was stated ycster-
day by Mr.. Taylor. He says that
there is absolutely no excuse for
wormy fruit If the trees are properly
sprayed for moths. Mr. Taylor says
that the codling moth does more dam
age than all others with which the
applegrower has to contend. He will
send out TO fruitgrowers the follow
ing bulletin telling what remedies
should be used:
Spray with arsenate of lead or Paris
green as soon after the blossoms fall
as possible. Repeat in nine to four
toen days, Ii the orchard has been
badly infested or is within quarter
OF mile of other infested ones from
which moths may ny in, spray for the
second brood
Never spray the tree when in bloom.
The first two sprays should be thrown
prom above down, and from the sides
IN, so as TO force the poison into the
calyx cups. For these sprays use
Bordeaux nozzle, giving a coarse. fan
shaped spray that will carry six feet
before II forms mist The two
sprays should he continued until every
Hover has been thoroughly soaked
and the trees are dripping heavily
For the latter sprays use finer mist
like spray, and stop as soon as the
trees begin to drip
Put bands on the trees a month
after blossoming and remove every
ten days and destroy all larvae until
the Goth of August then leave on
until picking time. Remove bands
after fruit is picked kill larvae and
| put bands away until next year
Scraping the bark In the spring
screening the fruit house and picking
)ll all wormy apples about two weeks
after the first worms come under the
bands viii also aid In controlling
them.

Merchant Marine and Navy.

Paving tribute to McDonOugh at the centenary
celebration Of the battle of Lake Champlain,
Governor Glynn voiced the righteous hope that
McDonoughs of the future would not be 'handi-
capped by national stupidity provincial selfish
ness" He would have navy big enough to
enable American sailors to fight any foe on equal
terms And he would have merchant marine
worthy of the commercial position Of this great
country
Out of the great European conflicts widespread
changes is coming an American merchant marine,
or at least the beginning of one. If it does not
grow into a great fotilla TO sail all the seas OF
the world the much Wanted American progress
siveness and foresight will become byword for
the rest of the world. In urging this Governor
Glynn voices the desire and hope Of every citizen
whose personal interests must be advanced by the
advance of his nations prosperity Yet it would
be lamentable fOOliShncSs to have such merchant
marine without a navy equal to the best. II IS 10
be hoped the Democratic administration at Wash
ington which is taking commcndable measures to
foster the bringing Of commercial bottoms under
the American flag realizes that nothing but ma
tional stupidity" will prevent the building Of new
battleships to protect them and the farms and fac
tories which must send out their cargoeS

The Return of "Unclc Joe.

Uncle Joe" Cannon has proved to the country
at large not only that the Old Guard never surren-
dcrs, but that it can come back. He beat Il vent
uresomc opponent for tho Congress nomination VINO
suggested that the ex-Speaker had lost 'touch WIN
the Younger element of the district" by vote of
about two TO one And now he's ready Tor the
Democrat who darcs to uphold the Wilson admin
iStration's record
While Uncle Joe" might not have liked the last
two years at Washington, with their somewhat
theological tngc it is certain that he liked Idle
ness at Dansyillc less. And Washington has hardly
seemed the same without him He offers TO bet
at adequate oddS-that the Bull Moose have gone
TO smash and the Democrats can't muster votes
enough TO keep him home this time. They shouldn't,
for their own sakcs, even if they could. His
songs, his stories his poker games and his dances
would take the curse even from a long drawn out
Democratic session. But we don't think Uncle
Joes" coming back will do either his country or his
party any good

$1,000 MORE FOR
N. Y. SCHOOLS
Jump in Registration VIII Be
Cared For by New
Buildings.

The school registration which has
been going on for the last three DAYS.
in view of the opening, Monday. viii
show an increase Of from 10000 TO
10000 new pupils, it is estimated. The
problem OF providing room for all has
been solved, it was said yesterday
Nine new buildings will be ready.
Three Of these are in Manhattan, two
in The Bronx, one in Brooklyn, two
in Queens and one in Richmond. The
new schools in Manhattan will be
known as No. 1902, at 18th St, near
Second av., and No. rs, at l77th st.
and Audubon av. A large addition
has been erected at School l09, at
l69th and Audubon av.
The registration figures viii not be
ready until the end Of next week. The
maximum average increase will bring
the total registration to 10000. To
meet this increase, five hundred new
teachers will be appointed. 1t was a
matter Of conjecture on the part OF
somn of the school board rs to what
effect the drop in immigration on ac-
count of the war might have on the
registration. II was thought that the
effect would not be appreciable.
Or. Maxwell. Superintendent OF
Schools, said that few teachers are
still held in European cities. Their
Places will be filled by substitutes.

Why Hinman Must Be Nominated.

OF the three candidates for the Republican
nomination for Governor only Mr. Human has
announced a definite policy and plan Of action If
nominated and elected Perhaps this is because
he is the only one with definite knowledge Of
state affairs and experience enough in these mat
ters to be competent to make such statement
Certainly it puts before the voters sharply the adj
vantage of having him in the Executive Chamber
instead Of Mr. Whitman or Mr. Hedges.
The District Attorney is an honest fearless
prosecutor. But he has never had any experience
in affairs of state government. His knowledge Of
police crookedneSs in this city would not render
him pre-cminently fit to consider the financing of
state charitable institutions. Mr.. Hedges is m
honorable and positive gentleman who would he
his own Governor and who promised when trying
for the place two years ago that if he got it
thercd be more dollars in the treasury at the end
Of his term than Tammany would leave there.
Nevertheless ne has not in his career any period
Of special training for the Governors work which
can compare with Mr.. Humans eight years in
the Senate.
Mr. Hinman hy, seen the wheels go round at
Albany He knows what is good in the govern
ment and what is bad. He has the desire and
ability to change the bad into good, and he Is
pledged to do it. He is a man whose ability and
integrity were trusted to the utmost by Governor
Hughes If the Republican voters do not nomi-
nate him on September 2S and elect him on No
vember they will lose their best chance Of hay
ing the kind Of clean, able economical administra-
ton they have been praying for every time a
Tammany scandal was uncovered these four years.

GERMAN PRESS METHODS
Some Criticism of the Testimony of
Five Correspondents.

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: The wireless from the five
American newspaper correspondents
now detained at Aix-la-Chapelle says
no more than that they failed TO cor
rOborate number of tales of German
outrages in Belgium. II does not con-
tradict "A single word of Richard Hard
ing Davis, now happily out of the Ger
man sphere of influence. nor of Cardi-
nal MERCER, primate of Belgium, nor OF
K. II. Blount, the agent of Brand Whit
lock, nor OF the Belgian committee OF
inquiry in Antwerp. It's value, so far
as it has any, is purely negative.
But even this negative value may
we'll be questioned by any one familiar
with the methods of the German For
eign Office. Remember that the CORE
spondents themselves are not at pres
ent free men. Consequently their re-
port would be freely edited" by Off
Gals, or bogus report could be sent
out with their names attached. That
the German government has for years
kept up a campaign of fabrication IN
the newspapers Is truIsm to the most
superficial student of contemporary
European history. We find, for exam
pie, in the diary of Herr Busch, OF the
Foreign Office, how Bismarck would
prompt the said Busch TO write for the
papers in the character of French
Liberal, or of an old Prussian noble
man, or of any one else whose occa-
sional opinions might further the tor
tuous scheme of German diplomacy.
Since Bismarck's time the Bureau of
Foreign Affairs has grown less adroit
but no more reliable. In the last few
days both the King of England and the
Gar of Russia have been misrepresent-
ed in garbled official dispatches from
Berlin. These Prussian defenders Of
monarchy do not hesitate, when it suits
their purpose, to SANDER the crowned
heads of Europe; much less would they
hesitate to put five American gentle
men who earn their living by writing
for the papers in a cruelty false posi-
ton.
If the German government wishes
US to put any credence in their dis
patch the five correspondents should
without delay be sert to a neutral
port. If they confirmed the message to
which their names are attached we
should then wish to know under what
circumstances they were unable to
verify the atrocities described by so
many reliable persons. If they merely
went over the ground under the guild
ancc of German officials who had pre-
viously removed all traces OF outrage
their commentator of the German
armies in Belgium would lose even its
negative value. -

to adapt themselves to new conditions those who
didn't want to stay being able to wind mp their
affairs. The instant and arbitrary abolition Of a
system in vogue FOR hundreds Of years is therefore
an afront to those nations having extraterritorial
treaties with Turkey which in ordinary times
would never be tolerated.
"ThIs war is Turkeys opportunity" the Turkish
Ambassador in Washington is reported as saying
The European powers may feel too much tied up to
try to hold Turkey to her promises. oven the
United States may not care to make more than
formal remonstranco against Turkeys bad faith.
Yet the Young Turks are taking big chances in
following Germanys example as a breaker OF In
convenient treaties, They may go scot free for
time, IL they don't set to work to massacre Chris
tians. But sooner or later they will have to pay
for their craftily timed perhdy. Bulgaria has now
Joined with Rumania and Greece in a defensive
compact against the Turks. AS n factor In the
present war Turkey is safely pocketcd. When the
war ends her shortsghtcd action in denouncing
treaties that no longer please her is likely to come
up for consideration in n European congress
