INSECTS INJURIOUS TO ORCHARDS
CAN BE CONTROLLED BY FUMlGATION
Treatment Now Being Adopted Everywhere Means of Rem
dering Nursery Stock Safe When 1t Leaves Hands of
Grower-Some Valuable Suggestions Are Given for
Care of Young Trees

the quantity Of stock to be treated
For a small nursery of few thousand
trees, box measuring S1a by 3h by
31a feet can be constructed, giving a
capacity of about one hundred cubic
feet, or IL the stock is very small a
box more easily handled can be made.
The box should be of matched stuff,
without knots, with two thicknesses
of tarred building paper between.
The inside of the box should be paint
ed and the joints closed carefully with
white lead. The lid should be closely
fitted by means of felt glued along the
edges of the box. When the lid is in
place il should be secured tightly by
wedges so as to prevent the escape
of gas.
A house may be constructed of the
same material and in the same way.
II should have a door fitting very
tightly, and for convenience in airing
out quickly a small door at the back
should be made. It's exact size does
not matter greatly, but the dose used
must be very carefully computed to
comply with the following instrue.
tons:
For each 100 cubic feet enclosed
the following chemicals are required
for each lot of trees treated:
Cyanide OF potassium, one ounce
eos per cent pure).
Commercial sulphuric acid, two
ounces (of good grade).
Water, four ounces.
After filing the space with trees
the water is poured into a crock,
then the sulphuric acid is added little
by little and the crock is placed in

SAGE TEA AND SULPHUR
DARKENS YOUR GRAY HAIR
Look Years Younger! Try Grandma's
Recipe of Sage and Sulphur and
Nobody VIII Know.

Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and Sulphur properly compound
ed, brings back the natural color and
lustre to the hair when faded, streaked
or gray; also ends dandruff, itching
scalp and stops falling hair. Years
ago the only way to get this mixture
was to make 1t at home, which is
mussy and troublesome.
Nowadays we simply ask at any
drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and Sui
phur Hair Remedy" You will get a
large bottle for about so cents. Every
body uses this old, famous recipe, be-
cause no one can possibly tell that
you darkened your hair, as it does it
so naturally and evenly. You dampen
a sponge or soft brush with it and
draw this through your hair, taking
one small strand at time; by morn
ing the gray hair disappears, and
after another application or two, your
hair becomes beautifully dark, thick
and glossy and you look years younger.

CLEAN SEED WILL
ELIMINATE BLIGHT
Recurrence of Potato Troubles
Can Be Prevented Next
Year, Says Expert.

A recurrence of late blight and dry
rot among potatoes can be prevented
next year. Clean seed is the great
essential. Seed treatment is not eff
fective for this particular disease.
The late blight dry rot exists to a
considerable extent among storage po-
tatoes, says e. c. Stakman, assistant
plant pathologist of the agricultural
experiment station, st. Paul If such
lots are used for seed next year the
disease may again be very destructive,
especially IL weather conditions favor
its spread. II is, therefore, of vital inn
portance that healthy. seed be used.
The Minnesota experiment station
Psychologists have been misquoted
with reference to methods of securing
such healthy seed. The soaking of
seed potatoes is necessary in control
ling some diseases, but treatment with
formaldehyde or corrosive sublimate
will not prevent late blight.
Seed potatoes should be secured
from fields which have not had any
of the disease during the last year. II
healthy tubers are planted and the
vines thoroughly sprayed with Dor.
deaux mixture next year, the disease
can be controlled.

shall be compelled to do what our
neighbors are doing if we wish to
compete with them in the production
of good fruit.
The recent growth Of interest in
fruit growing and the disposition TO
plant new orchards has led to the
adoption of improved methods of car
ing for fruit trees on the part of the
most progressive people, but many
farmers and even fruit growers are
still not provided with spraying out
fits, without which they cannot hope
to save their trees from scale insects.
These trees are perhaps not in all
cases sufficiently valuable to justify
the expense of spraying, but neighbors
who have invested more extensively
In fruit and depend more on the crop,
should not be made to suffer because
of neglect on the part of people who
have nothing at stake.
Everyone ought, it would seem, to
be required to destroy infested trees
In his possession whenever he is I'M
willing to treat them and care for
them properly. Certainly one has
nothing to gain by keeping them, since
the scale will destroy them anyway,
and neighbours risk should of itself
be sufficient motive to impel one to
get rid of the pests.

At the end of so minutes, or an hour,
the doors are opened for ten minutes

There is no avoiding the fact that
we must reckon with the San Jose
scale if we are to raise good fruit.
Some states have escaped 1t longer
chan others, partly because they were
lot so generally engaged in fruit
growing, partly, perhaps, because they
began at once to look after the pest
when its presence was discovered in
other states. But the scale has been
gradually invading our orchards until
1t is now liable to be discovered on
fruit trees anywhere in the United
States. This means simply that we

means of destroying scale insects is
growing greater every year, as the
acreage in fruit increases. 1t is Gus
tomary to concede to insect pests of
ordinary crops one-tenth of the total
value OF the crop, and applying this
to our fruit crops of last year we may
be said to have lost, as a result of in
sect depredations, many millions of
dollars.
Most of the injury and resulting
loss can be prevented. Spraying alone
will save the greater part. Three
fourths of the cooling moth damage
can thus be saved This has been
demonstrated by very carefully made
tests. More than nine-tenths of the
San Jose scale on the bark of fruit
trees can be removed by a single
thorough spraying In winter with
lime-sulphur solution. There seems
to be no good reason, therefore, why
anyone interested in farming and
fruit growing should not equip himself
with the necessary apparatus and do
his share in keeping pests under con-
troll.
Nurseries are in great and constant
danger from the unimpeded spread of
pests. For their protection it is i'm
portant that orchards be looked after
more closely than they have been in
the past, since they are frequently the
source from which nurseries become
infested. But since the scale is now

United States it will be necessary,

BEAUTIFUL MASPARTY MONDAY
Mr.. and Mrs. Monks Entsrtaia Large
Company at Delightful Function

One of the most elaborate and
we'll appointed social functions
ever given in this city was held at
the Monastery" Monday evening
when Mr.. and Mrs. J. I. Monks
entertained some 40 of their friends
at Christmas party.
Cards formed one of the princi-
pal amusements of the evening,
progressive bridge being the game
played. Dainty stocking shaped
place cards were hung on the man
tel in front of the fireplace and
were selected by the guests at ran
dom. Mrs. E. H. Ulrich won the
first prize for the highest score
made by lady and Mrs. M. J.
Dignan won the second prize. O.
S. Davis won the gentlemen's first
prize and DR.. c. E. Moore won the
second prize.
A color scheme of red and green
graced the Monastery and wreaths
of holly, sprays of mistletoe, win
ter foliage and cut flowers graced
every nook and corner of the re-
ception and card rooms. 1t is
limited that several of the gentle
men members of the jolly party
took advantage of the opportunities
offered when the ladies hap
pened Cd to be found standing
underneath spray of that historic
Xmas emblem, mistletoe.
The hostess, assisted by several
friends, served a very dainty and
delicious lunch following the card
games and the color scheme was
prettily carried out in the refresh
ments.
The feature of the evenings en-
joyment was a real, genuine, old
fashioned Christmas tree which
glowed with many colored candles
and which sparkled with decora-
tons and was loaded with pretty
presents for each member of the
party.
