RECORD RUN Of STOCK
IS MADE At PORTLAND

PORTLAND. Ore, Feb. 17.-North
Portland today had its record run OF
livestock. when 100 loads of stock
came forward This beats the previ.
Gus high record by several cars. Not
withstanding this huge offering OF
supplies, the market for livestock was
generally of good character.
In the hog market tops advanced
SC above last weeks extreme figures
with sales in limited way at 1856.
This is as high as the highest priced
stuff sold at in Chicago, which really
means that, quality considered, the
local price is above any in the coun-
try.
General hog market range:
Best light, l75 to 225 lbs. $500 S.65
Prime heavy, 225 to $50 lbs. s.40Gs.50
Rough and heavy ....... I.4O G I.6O
Pigs, as TO 125 lbs. ...... 50GS.00

The disease may occur in blossom
or it may occur On bark of the twig,

and also in the fruit, especially in
immature fruit, any or all these parts
may be affected in the same tree and
the disease may spread from one
part to another, more often the dis
case Is found ON the apples in form
Of twig blight while In the Pear it
more often is found as body blight,
however cases may reverse them
selves.
A reason why that body blight is
more common in pears than apples Is
because of the spongy, juicier bark

EXCELLENT PAPER
ON FIRE BLIGHT
Bacterial Diseases Of Trees with Spe-
ciaI Reference to Bacterial
BIight."-By c. Joseph Davlss.

Mr. President, Ladies and Gentls men
We are all apt to weary on hearing
so often the all hackneyed truth thai
this is AN age of progress, and yei
it is, and you men and women here
assembled are of the best class and
progressive, you must be or you
would not be here today.
However is it not within the mem.
DRY of most of us that the scales of
ignorance so obscured cur sight, as
to delay our progress In human
achievement?
Is it not also true that this same
scale has been responsible for a
great deal of the suffering and an
guish in the human family and often
in our own?
We can nearly all remember hear
Ing otherwise intelligent people rid
icule the germ theory of such d.
sease as malaria, dysentary, and ty-
phoid, later to awaken and larn
through the work of such men as
Ross, "Kitasto" and the immortal
tPasteur" that such diseases and a
host of others have their origin In
the activities of real plant or ami
NAL organisms.
Now if this be true of human pa
thology, they are the same as the
experiences in the realm of botany,
and particularly that branch known
as PLANT Pathology"
Prior to the year 1874 scarcely a
single word. had been written con-
corning plant diseases, of bacterial
origin In fact not until 1878 that such
a disease was really known, at that
time our knowledge of plant diseases
was confined to the harmful effects
OF certain parasitic fungi.
Maladies that could not thus be
accounted for were attributed to at
mospheric disturbances, soil co1di-
lions, poisonous vapors, or some 9TH
or intangible and mysterious pigment 7
IF imagination. II
Such disease was the fire blight

causes a greater flow of sap in the
trees and ideal conditions for the
rapid development of the disease and
before the season is over dead limbs
and dead trees are seen in all direc-
lions, the owner disguised destroys
the dead material and allows the
orchard to return to Sod the spread
of the disease slowly subsidies, falls
to unnoticeable proportions and the
owner decided that the attack of the
disease was due to cultivation which
of course indirectly it was.
Sod however is not an ideal con-
dition for an orchard, it means less
and inferior fruit, also nursery for
insect pests.
Disease In Fruit.
The disease is often found in Inn
mature but seldom in ripe fruit, it
may enter the fruit by way of the
peduncle from a diseased twig or
fruit spur, in which case the disease
would spread from core edwards.
1t may find entrance by puncture
of the skin by insect or other means,
when the disease would work from
without in, the exterior of diseased
apple or pear will be discolored light
brown, then dark brown and finally
black, as the disease progresses the
flesh will become soft and pulpy and
the skin ,wrinkled.
If you section the fruit you viii
find the interior soft and present
Shiny decayed appearance coIored
either brown or black, microscopical
examination of the cells show them
to be completely filled with the
germs.
The disease spreads rapidly in the
tissue of a young fruit, but slowly !
in fruit that is ripening, in the
after case the diseased area does not |
become Shiny, soft and pulpy, but
becomes discolored brown having
more the appearance of bruise but

son New York"
!, The disease of Blossom Blight
Twig Blight, Body Blight "Bligh
Canker" seems to be purely an Am
erican disease, starting from the Hud
son territory in 1880 it has Travelled
with civilization across the Unitet
States, at first thought to be only
disease of the Pear but now known
to affect Apple, Wild Thorn, Ounce
Prune, Plum, Apricot, Service Perry
and Mountain Ash, the disease has
become the most important bacterial
disease known to oour trees.
Cause.
The direct cause of the disease is
minute organism belonging to the
lowest order of Fungi, known as bac-
terra, similar organisms in human
life called disease germs"
The bacillus causing the disease Is
known as Bacillus Amylovorous,"
being an organism about 1.5 microns
long and 6 microns broad, a micron
being 1-25000 of an inch, it would
take 10000 placed end to end or Al
600 side by side to extend an inch.
This bacillus was isolated and
named by Prof. T. ]. Burrill of II
linois in 1878.
MIcroscopical Characters.
In the Development of this minute
organism 1t assumes various shapes,
the most Characteristic form consists
of two oblong joints, with rounded
ends, the cells are usually single
though they may be in twos, sell
dom In threes or chains, often they
will be found in clumps, the organ
lsms being matted together by the
of the dlagella of which
they have from l to 4 situated at or
near the poles.
The most conspicuous change in
issue affected with blight, is the dis
appearance of the stored starch, the
ell walls are not dissolved or altered
n any way except by the staining,
which often takes place through
oxidation, in the later stages of the
Iisease.
When cell has been invaded by
he moving particles the first thing
Ioticeable Is the agitation of the
tarch granules, they visibly trem-
lie, sway infinitely to and fro, bump
ng each other Within the narrow
onfines OF the cell, then dissolution
egins, the grains lose their char
cteristio forms and finally disappear,
