'LANGLEY'S FOLLY" FLIES
WITH CURTTSS AS PILOT
Aviator Uses Machine Safely,
Proving Inventor Who Fell

Problem.

Elmirs, N. Y, May 49, The theory
of DR.. Samuel Pierrepont Langley.
who proclaimed to the world that he
han solved the problem of the air sew
eral years before the upper elements
had been secces, fully navigated by
heavier-than-air machine. was vindi-
Gated at Hammondsport today when
Glenn Curtiss, the aviator. went alOft
in "Langley's Folly"
The crude flying machine, which
fell into the Potomac river in 1897.
when DR.. Langley. its inve ntor, at
tempted to fly in it. and which later
was consigned to the Smithsonian
Institution at Washington, had every
requisite for fight, and remained in
the air long enough to demonstrate
the practical mind of its maker. The
flight was successful in every respect.
The Langley machine but little re-
sembled the trim and powerful flyers
of today. but in its crude state it
mbines the basic principles Of
aviation, and after many Yeas of
neglect the "old junk" came into its
own giving, its aged inventor his de-
served place among the recognized
pioneers of aviation.
langley made the fatal error of try
ing to catapult the flyer into the air
with the aid of ponderous springs
Had he tried the method pursued
today of running the machine along
the ground and allowing it to rise
gradually in the air. there is little
doubt he would hsv m .de the first
fight in a -than-air machine.
The antiquated machine was sent
to Hammondsport about two months
ago. Scarcely a change was made in
its parts. The surface of the wings,
which had suffered from long storage
were replaced. Other minor parts
repaired were duplicates of the
originals. The machine was driven
today by the old motor built by
Charles Manly.

DRESS THE CHILD SIMPLY
OVereIsboration In Garments for Small
Person Is Evidence Of Distinct
Lack Of Taste.

It has been frequently remarked
by people of observation how very
simply the cold families" dress their
children. Millions of money they
may have, but their code of simplicity
for the little folks is almost invari-
able. Occasionally, when some "new"
blood marries into the family touches
of overelaboration are sometimes ex-
hibited. Studied lines these little
children may have, and the finest of
materials and the smallest of stitches.
Simplicity does not necessarily mean
a lack of expense. 1t means, most of
all, lack of display. But not only
with the wealthy and the 'four hum
dred" does this custom of juvenile
simplicity prevail, but with well-bred
people in general. Childhood and
youth are in themselves sufficient
decoration.
An exclusive and simple frock for
the little girl may be made from nat
ural-colored linen, with lay-down col
lars and cuffs embroidered in golden
brown mercerized thread. Have the
dress falling in large box plaits back
and front from a yoke and belted in
with an embroidered belt. A very
suitable design would be that of the
decorative and yet simple pattern of
the walls of Troy.-Exchange.

Zion City has adopted set of very

Rev. p. H. Anderson, defending
Zion City's course, said the, other

Fire Blight or Pear Blight.

Fire blight is one Of the most seri-
Gus of all the diseases attacking the
pear and the apple. Nearly every
pear and apple orchard at the pres
ent time shows indications of the
presence of this disease. The leaves
are turning brown, espC cially at the
ends Of the new growth, and they
stand out in sharp contrast to the
surrounding green foliage. When
first noticed, only tip of a branch
appears to be infested, but il undis-
tutbed soon the VIII lie limb and even
the trunk of the tree will be infested.
Blight is caused by minute germ
or organism that lives during the
dormant season in cankers. resulting
from infection the previous season.
In order to properly control this dis
ease it is necessary that orchards 8
be able to recognize these holdover
cankers, because il every holdover
canker could be disposed Of before
the sap starts to flow in the spring
the disease would be eradicated.
The presence of the canker is usu-
ally indicated by the appearance of
the bark. Under ordinary condi-
tions there is sharp line Of demar.
cation separating the dead tissue
from the healthy. In many in
stances the bark is broken due to
the contracting Of the surrounding
tissues. This is especially noticeable
around fruit spurs and wate'
sprouts on the larger limbs where
the cankers are more apt to be
found.
AS soon as the sap starts to flow in
the spring, a syrupy exudste con-
tanning the germ is given off from
the holdover cankers. This exudste
serves to attract bees and other in
sects and later on they fly to. nearby
blossoms and broken bark tissues,
spreading the disease as they travel
The germs multiply very rapidly
and in a short time the leaves sur
rounding the blossoms sni twigs be-
gin to die. Gradually it works
down to the larger limbs, often
spreading at the rate of foot 0
day.
The disease appears TO spread
more rapidly on pears and ounces
than on apples. On the apple it Is
often termed "twig blight" because
usually only the younger twigs seem
to be affected and not the larger
branches.
Since the trouble is under the
bark it becomes apparent at once
that no external application in the
form of a spray cen be applied. The
most logical thing to do is to cut out
the canker where it winters over.
The. orchard should be Inspected
carefully several times and all sus-
picious sreas of any kind should be
cut out in order to be safe. Prun-
ing during the summer is also good
plan but it is not as practical as
winter pruning. II a large limb is
removed the cut should be made
several inches below the dead area
in order to avoid any chance Of
further infection. For the ends of
branches the long handled pruning
shears are very effective.
Always burn the diseased limbs as
soon as they are cut. The trees
should be gone over every week at
least and in many cases more often
in order to dispose of the first indica-
tons Of trouble.
