v. D. PHILLIPS, Secreiary

There is more Catarrh in this Sec
ton of the country than all other dis
eases put together, and until the last
few years was supposed to be incur
able. For a great many years doctors
pronounced it a local disease and pre-
scribed local remedies, and by con.
stantly failing to cure with local
treatment, pronounced it ineurable.
Science has proven Catarrh to be a
constitutional disease, and therefore
requires constitutional treatment.
Halls Catarrh Cure, manufactured by
T.. j. Cheney & Co., Toledo, o., is the
only Constitutional cure on the mar
ket. 1t acts directly on the blood and
mucous surfaces of the system. They
offer one hundred dollars for any case
it fails to cure. Send for circulars

II placed in 2 partially shaded place
and irrigated, there are several things
that can be planted now: lettuce, Swiss
chaId, turnips, Tadishes. etc. Turnips
are the most popular fail crop.
Even early varieties of peas may be
planted now ard matured before frost.
Many people believe that evergreen
trees can be set out in August or early
September better than at any time of
the year. Ask the Experiment Station
nurseryman about it, if interested.
Some perennials, such as Fhubarb,

Honev-Locust Borers


Several different washes are being
used on the honey-locust trees to pre-
vent infection by borers. There is
some difference of opinion as to the eff
feet on the trees of these different
washes. There is one, however, from
which no injury can come and about
which no doubt need be had as to its
effect on the tree as we'll as on the Dor
ers. This is the plain lime white wash
to which may be added, with good re-
sulte, whole oil soap or even common
hard soap in solution
The purpose of this is to prevent the
borers from laying eggs on the bark
in its cracks and crsviees. The wash
should be applied very thoroughly so as
to cover every bit of bark on the trunk
and larger limbs.
This is the egg laYiag season and to
be effective the wash must be applied
before the eggs are layed or immediate
iy afterWard. L. D. w.
