To Improve Pike IN Pennsylvania

Road Commissioner R. J. Cunning
ham, of Pennsylvania, will,spend $780,,
600 for improvement of the Old Nation
al Turnpike in Pennsylvania between
the Maryland and West Virginia State
line.
Work was started last Monday. This
will give an improved thoroughfare
from Wheeling, w. Va, to the Mary
land line, sixty miles.
The above is of local interest because
the proposed improvement on the Ma
tlonal road will carry out the plan of
those who favor this route to the Pan
American Exposition. This improve
ment to the National road in Pennsyl-
vania means much to Maryland, es-
pecially to towns and cities on this
division of the "Old Pike" in that it
will attract tourists over this route, the
most interesting, beautiful and histor-
ical of the two routes to the Pacific
cost

BROWN ROT WILL RUIN PEACH
CROP.
T. B. SYMONS,
Maryland Agricultural College.

L. B. SHMONS,
Maryland Agricultural College.
Too much importance cannot be at.
tached to the spraying for fruit protec-
ton against insects and disease Oft.
en- the whole crop is lost through
injury by Curculio, followed by Brown
Rot. The Curculio winters in the
adult stage, appearing just as the fob.
age develops on peaches and plums.
1t feeds upon the foliage for a little
while, then, the female beetle, laying
her eggs, does the principal injury to
the fruit by making a semi-circular
cut in which its eggs are laid The
egg matches in short time and the
small larva makes its way INTO the
center of the fruit and there develops.
The fruit rots and drops, the larva
escaping into the ground and later de-
veloping into the adult beetle.
The beetle is controlled by spraying
with Arsenate of Lead at the rate of 2
pounds TO SO gallons of water This
poison is usually combined with the
self-boiled lime sulphur wash, a fungi
eide which will control Brown Rot.
The self-boiled lime sulphur is made
by shaking pounds of lime in a suffi
cient amount of water, and adding s
pounds of sulphur when the lime be-
gins to slack. The mixture must be
kept stirred and the water added as
needed, to keep pasty condition until
the lime is all slaked. The heat gen.
Grated by the shaking lime causes the
sulphur to mix physically with the lime
in very fine state, but should not be
continued long enough to form much
of a sulphide compound as shown by
the mixture taking on yellow or
brown color. The mixture is then
strained into the spray barrel and the
arsenate of lead added.
CAUTION:-The Concentrated Lime
Sulphur Solution, such as is used in
dormant or early spring spraying
should not be used on peach or plum
foliage under any circumstances.
Where Brown Rot has previously ap-
peared, the first application of the
above mixture should be made Just
after the fruit sets and before the
shucks are off the peaches. A second
application two weeks later is very
necessary and a third treatment a
month before the fruit is ripe is very
desirable. Not only Will this treat.

Brown Rot. but also from Peach Scab

What luck did you have brooding

chickens but l do believe that Just

For instance. if the Old hen had been

Roosevelt as Witness.

Denver, March 13.-Theodore
Roosevelt may be a witness in court
here as result of enemies of Ju-
venile Judge Ben Lindsey attempting
TO oust him. Lindsey asked the dis
trict attorney today to arrest three
men and one woman, charging con-
spiracy to defame the jurist's charac-
ter. If the case comes to trial Lind
sey will ask Roosevelt to testify that
he was in Oyster Bay when the act
charged against him in the affida-
vit is alleged by the conspirators to
have been committed.
Lindsey's enemies are trying to
abolish the juvenile court, through the
Legislature. Reports are that the
reform element in Denver, especially
those who attacked the Colorado Fuel
and Iron Company during the strike,
have been "shadowed" recently. 1t
is alleged that money to pay the de-
tectives came from New York.

TO BEAUTIFY
NORTH END SCHOOL

F. w. Waite, county horticultural
commissioner, whose fame as land
scape architect has reached the North
End, today is outlining plans for
beautifying the Trifolium school,
northwest of Brawley.
Three years ago, when the board
of supervisors had planned to beau
tify site for a prospective court
house, Mr.. Waite prepared elaborate
drawings for the landscape effect, but
the discovery of a conflicting boun-
dary between properties gave rise to
dissention and the plan was tempo
rarily abandoned. The proposal fin
ally was lost in a maze of documents
that are tabled at every board meet
ing and failed to come up for future
discussion.
In addition to this, Mr. Waite pre-
pared the landscape effect of the city
park, which. with the exception of the
varieties of the trees which were
planted, eonformed closely to his
plans.

ion, who was in an intoxicated cond-
tion and unable to care for himself.
Frank Cuen, Is, who stated he was in
the employ of the Yuma reclamation
service, was arrested this morning by
City Marshal McFadden and is held at
the county Jail.
According to witnesses, Cuen, after
his companion had become prostrated
and fallen into the alley adjoining the
Oregon hotel, sought to rifle the
clothing of the insensible man. Per-
sons whose suspicious were aroused
by Cuen's actions notified officers.
Search at the county Jail of Cuen's
clothing disclosed s35 in currencv and
quantity of small change, which, he
declared, had been given to him by
his companion for safe keeping. Later
he declared that he had deliberately
taken the money to prevent loss by
theft while his friend was incapable of
protecting his own interests.
Cuen is held on robbery charge.

ings regarding the Central ond South

ed number of instances in which the
separation would work hardships to
California shippers and asserted sep
aration would cause increased rates.
He said:
"Of course | am not saying that
ioint al lgements could not be made,
but if they can there would seem to be
no reason for separation
Special Agent McLennen objected
to the statement and it was stricken
out. Eshleman said: my opinion is
that no arrangement could be made
between the two systems, operating
singly, that would give such service
as is now given" He said the coal,
oil and cement rates would be in
creased by separation.

THAW ACQUITTED
BY TRIAL JURY

New York, March 13.-The jury be-
fore whom Harry Thaw was tried for
conspiracy to escape from the insane
asylum returned verdict of acquit-
tai this morning.
ThaW was returned to the Tombs,
confident that the liberty for which
he has been fighting for 8 years, since
he killed Stanford White, was assured
So soon as the verdict was an
nounced Attorney John B. Stanchfield
Of the defense moved that Tha~ 1e
freed and returned to New Hampshire,
whence he was extradited on q con-
spiracy charge.
Thaw's counsel is confident they
will win the motion Monday. when
Justice Page hears the arguments.
The verdict Is a signal victory for
the prisoner. The jury was out IA
hours and 30 minutes and reached an
agreement after being twice returned
to the courtroom for additional in
structions.
Thaw's testimony, that he believed
and had been advised that he would
violate no law by escaping from Mat
teawan Is thought to have influenced
the jury.
As the trial closed the court was
thrown into an uproar by fist fight
between Sheriff Gifenhagen of New
York county and John Lanyon, head
of a detective agency, employed by
the district attorneys office. The
police used their clubs to clear the
court and Lanyon was arrested. The
charges against Thaw and his four
eo-defendants were dismissed.
Tears came to Shaw's eyes as the
verdict was announced. He smiled,
but his emotion prevented him speak
ing as his attorneys and the newspa-
per men offered their congratulations
His mother and sister remained seat
ed. both in tears.
Thaw's exit from the courtroom
was almost triumphal procession,
friends and scores of spectators in
terrupting him to shake hands. The
Jury left the room before Thaw could
thank them.
