Merrill makes the following statement
relative to modern scientific methods
in Doniphan county: ''The summer
Of 1913, as everyone knows, has been
a hard one on all living things, but It
had it's value in that it demonstrated
very clearly the advantages Of modern
methods. Those who did not spray
their orchards had no apples at all.
while those who sprayed made good
money"
Combat the Pests.
Through spraying frequently and
resorting to other up-to-date methods
insect pests in well kept orchards have
been eradicated to q gratifying degree.
The pests with which it is necessary
to contend are numerous. One OF

lays eggs in the bark of the tree, and
the newly Matched larvae bore into the
sapwood where they feed for nearly
two years, occasionally making holes
in the bark through which they cast
the borings. In the third year they
bore more in the heart wood of the
trees and near the end Of the year

TELL HOW 934 PEOPLE DIED or
LINER: SIR HENRY IRVING'S SON
CLASPS HIS Wife IN Death

QUEBEC, May 3O.-Of
the 934 persons who per-
ished in the Empress of
ireland disaster, the bodies
of ESQ had been recovered
today.
A fleet of small craft
cruised about the scene of
the wreck all night, pick
ing up the floating corpses.
They were transferred
on board the government
boat Lady Grey, which
started with them for
Father Point and Ri
mouski.
Captain II. G. Kendall. OF the
Empress. is still at Rimouskf.
where IL was expected he would
testify at an inquest today. He was
Frustrated by his experience and
the exposure he underwent, but
was slowly recovering.
Captain Mskes Statement
A report from Rimouski was that
Kendall had made partial state
ment In which he said he saw the
Storstad's lights Just before the
collision, whistled. and received Z
response, and then stopped the En-
press, but that the Storstad tried
TO cross the Empress bow, and.
falling, crashed into its side.
Backs Out Of Breach
For moment. according to the
story Kendall told. the collier
hung in the breach II had made In
the liners side and then backed
out. despite Kendall's pleadings
that its propellers be kept driving
II ahead to plug the hole.
But the captain of the collier
backed away and the Empress
quickly rolled over.
Goes Down Like Lead
The passengers came swarming
on deck. the boilers exploded. and
the ship went down like lead.
The Storstad arrived here today
and proceeded TO Montreal. 1t had
no survivors from the wreck on
board.
The bodies of 2s0 we're stretched
in the pier shed at Rimousk today.
For a few there were coffins. The
others rested on the bare boards OF
pier.
Mother Clasps Babe
Many of the faces stared up, OPEN
eyed. Most of them wore puz-
zled rather than a frightened ex-
preston.
One mother clasped an infant girl
TO her breast
Around the child's neck was
gold chain, from which dangled q
tiny cross.
On the face of another woman
who was soon to have become
mother agony was written.
The bodies were laid out without
regard to social grade.
Bodies Wear Life Belts
Sailors, steerage and first and
second cabin passengers lay side
by side.
On many of the corpses were cuts
and bruises, evidently suffered In
the collision or by falls when the
ship heeled over, Just before sink
ing. Around number OF them
we're life belts.
