ing TO affidavits made by Johannes

Van Koolbergen states that he was
actually paid $500 on the order Of

agreed upon for the job, $500, was
paid over.

bergen met Baron Won Brincken In
San Francisco and received detailed
instructions as to where he should
steal the dynamite for the tunnel
wrecking. He was also supplied with
a confidential timetable Of the Canadi-
an Pacific. giving the movements Of
al troop trains.

from Bopp to Brioken and then on to
van Koolbergen were sem BY the
German attache FIRST to c. g. Crow

CONTROL DISEASE OF APPLE
Most Effective Treatment for Eight

The most effective treatment for
the control OF apple blight consists
in cutting out the diseased parts. In
young orchards and in nurseries
where there is naturally but little
when blight is not serious. by cutting
out every blighted twig and canker
as soon as possible. giving special at
tentiOn to the body and base OF the
tree. a bad outbreak may be prevented
In following years. II is also neces-
sary to destroy all blight In the neigh
borhood on wild or cultivated trees as
the bees may carry it long distances.
Bees are. however. necessary to pol
lenate the flowers.
When old bearing trees are badly
infected. winter is the best time to
cut out the blight. The cuts on large
branches or in the trunk should be
brushed with a disinfectant and when
dry protected by painting with white
lead in linseed oil. In cutting blight
in the growing season. 1t is important
to wipe the pruning instrument after
each cut on clOth or sponge wet with
either carbOlic acid, concentrate ed
lime-sulphur, per cent formalin. or
other disinfectant to prevent reinfec-
tion of the next cut. Cut twice sew
eral inches below where the blight
shows. as in spring the germs extend
much farther in than they show on
the outside.
