SPRAYING PEARS.

Pears require, usually, but little
spraying. If scale is present they need
the winter treatment; if not, it can be
omitted. If cooling moth is bad they
need to be sprayed just after the
bloom falls, as for apples. Usually
these two treatments are enough, but
if blister-mite. or pear psylla, or
thrips are present, you should consult
your experiment station for advice.

MARCH ON BAGDAD
 PROGRESSES RAPIDLY
English Retake Ctesiphon from Which Troops were Recently With
 drawn-Important Victory.

London, Nov. 27, 1O:30 a. m.-The battle between British and Turkish forces at Ctesiphon, near Bagdad, which for O time looked like check to the Mesopotamidn expedition, is now reported to have been a success of first importance.
 Information received today is that the retirement of the British after the capture of Ctesiphon, occasioned by the lack of water, was only tempor- ary. After the Turks withdrew in the direction of Bagdad, as announced officially yesterday, the British reoc- cupied their former positions, en- countering no opposition, as they took possession of Ctesiphon for the second time.
 British troops at once began the work of clearing the Turkish trench es, which were filled with dead or wounded soldiers. The British cap tured a large quantity of arms and ammunition, in addition to the 1900 prisoners previously reported.
 Ctesiphon has been the scene of many fateful battles. The ancient city was besieged and plundered a dozen times by Greek and Roman in- vaders from the east before the Arabs finally sacked it.

FRENCH WAR LOAN MAY
 REACH FOUR BILLIONS
Subscriptions Are Pouring in -One-Half of Amount
 in Cash.

Paris, Nov. 27.-Paul Leroy-Beau- lieu, the economist estimated today that subscriptions to the new French war loan may amount to 20,000,000 900 francs 00,0O0,000.) Of this amount perhaps one-half will be cash subscriptions, the remainder repre- senting conversion into the new loan of earlier issues of treasury notes and national defense bods.
 Officials of the treasury department express great satisfaction with the re- suits thus far.
 A man with the cap and blue blouse of a peasant. was asked the bank or Franco what denominations of bonds he desired. The clerk judged from his appearance that he would subscribe for 100 to 1000 francs.
 1T don't care,' the peasant re- sponded. The less paper the better. But give me 100000 francs worth"
 He paid one-tenth of this in gold.

LACK OF PULMOTOR
 IS ALMOST FATAL
Youth at 29 John Street Almost Fatally Overcome by Smoke
 in Fire Last Night.

The prevailing custom of leaving the fire departments pulmotor d t the Central engine house until it is needed came near costing the life Of nineteen year old Ernest Paffero of 29 John street last night. The youth was overcome by smoke from a fire which broke out at his home at 10 o'clock and was unconscious for thir- ty-five minutes, until pr. Joseph Walsh was finally summoned.
 The fire was in the house owned and occupied by Benjamin Caggiano and started from an overloaded stove setting fire to some papers and the woodwork. The actual damage was slight. Paffero is a nephew of MT. Caggiano and was alone in the ten ement when the fire broke out. He was sleeping on couch and when Officer Herbert c. Lyon discovered the fire he was uncohscious. He was carried out.
 The pulmotor is not taken out by the department in response to alarms but is left at the Central station to be called for when needed. Ac- cordingly there was nothing to re- lieve the unconscious man. He was in this condition for thirty-five min- utes until Dr. Walsh was summoned Later he was taken to the hospital in the police ambulance. The youth was so long unconscious that for 2 few minutes it was feared that it would be impossible to save his life.
 A humorous incident in connection with the fire concerns the disappear ance of an upstairs tenant. Evident ally awaking from his sleep and find- ing the room full of smoke the man, dragging most of his bedclothes be- hind him, leaped through a window onto the rear roof. A woman living next door saw him and called his name. Instantly the man disappear ed, leaving the bedding on the roof behind him.. It is presumed that he jumped to the ground and hid in the nearby lumber yard until the excite ment was over and he could return for his garments.
