MANY BLIGHT CURES ARE FAKES
Director of Experiment Station De-
F~s cares Surgery Is Only
Remedy.

DR.. Ira d. Cardiff, director of the
state experiment station at Pullman,
Wash, has sounded a warning to hor-
ticulturalists throughout the state to
beware of cures" for blight which are
being advanced, branding them grave
menace to the fruit industry.
s'The experiment station desires to
call the attention of horticulturalists to
the grave danger menacing the fruit
industry in the numerous and sundry
alleged cures for blight { pear blight
fire blightO. These cures take the
shape sometimes of tree paint. some
times of materials for injecting into
the tree and sometimes of materials
TO be placed in the soil about the trees.
lit is the experience of scientific
work, both in the experimental sta
lions and United States department Of
agriculture, that none of these social
ed cures will do the work claimed for
them. In other words, they are prob
ably all pure fakes and their use can
only result in loss to the orchardist.
,"The blight disease and its charac-
teristics are we'll known to plant pa
biologists and horticulturists the coun-
try over It's cause is well known and
the methods of combating it are well
known. There is, therefore, little ex-
cuse for making mistakes in regard TO
combating this disease.
"The only way to cure tree OF
blight, once it is affected. is to cut out
the infected portions. There is no
patent cure From the very nature
of the disease it is improbable that
there will be, and any one who takes
advantages of people In time of dis
tress, such as a blight epidemic, to
work off patent cures or panacaes fol-
the blight is, to say the least, most
undesirable citizen. 1t is unfortunate
that our laws are not drastic enough
to prevent the activities of these blight
nostrum takers.
ut seems especially necessary al
present to call attention to this mat
ter, as there is being exploited certain
tree paints as blight cures. One thinf
seems absolutely certain in regard t
these tree plants. namely, that If the,
will kill the blight bacteria in the tree
they will also kill the tree, or that por
ton of it upon which the paint Il
placed. In other words, surgery woul'
do the same work as such paint
minus the cost OF the paint, and prob
ably do it more effectively"

WAR IS ON

Vienna, July 28.-Official mott
fication of the declaration of war
was sent to Servia today by the
Austro-IIungarian government.
Austria refused Sir Edward
Grey's proposal of an ambassa-
dorial conference in London.
The imperial Austro-Hungarian
foreign office declared today that
even if Servia should now comply
with the demands contained in the
Austrian note, the government of
the dual monarchy would not be
satisfied.
Officials at the ministry stated that
Servia's reply had made it impossible
for Austria-Hungary to adhere to her
former standpoint, and compliance by
Servia with the demands made on her
could no longer influence the course
of action of the Hungarian en-
pire.
Germany Refuses Aid.
Berlin, July 2S.-The German gov
eminent returned today an unfavorable
reply to the British proposal for a con-
ference of the ambassadors in London
of the European powers, in an endeav-
or to bring about settlement OF the
Austro-Servian difficulty.
In it's communication Germany de-
clares that it considers the suggestion
of Sir Edward Grey, the British for
eign secretary, as well meant and
good In principle, but not feasible in
practice and impossible ocarry out.
