Even greater than the terrible

for a higher type of life for human

social justice, for temperance, for
brotherhood and human happiness
are a countless host. and being daily
recruited. Within the of
even the young people Of today, the
temperance cause, for example, has
leaped into the forefront Of national
and world issues. 1t is no longer the

The number of blossoms from one root

Peach lie at. Crul and its Prevention.

Feacn IeaI-Sfui ana us FTeventon
While the extent Of the injury varies
with the different varieties, and with
the character of the season, it is seld ON
that spring passes when peach tree 4
are entirely free from the attack of leaf
curl.
The name leaf-curl is given to the
blistering, thickenine, and curling of
peach tree foliage which often occurs
when the weather in May and Juue is
cold and wet. The attack may be SO
severe that practically all of the leaves
may drop, and this may result in the
partial or enuire loss of the crop Of
fruit.
Formerly it was supposed that the
loss of the leaves was due directly to
the unfavoIable climatic conditions,
but it is now known that it is fungoUs
nature, and that the reason why it only
develops in cold, wet weather is that
the conditions are then favorable for
the development of the disease.
Like other fungous diseases, the de.
velopment of leaf curl can be prevented
by thoroughly spraying the trees in the
spring. If the application is not made
by the middle of April, or even before
that date, in early seasons little, if any,
effect will be secured.
In sections where the San Jose scale
is present, the so-called dormant spray
for the scale containing one part of
commercial lime.sulphur solution to 8
or 8 parts of water will control the leaf
curl. provided it is not delayed too long,
A somewhat weaker application, per.
haps LIS. will answer when the scale
is not present, or, we may substitute a
solution of copper sulphate, using
pounds in so gallons of water. Bor-
deaux mixture may also be used but it
is no more effectual than the clear
solution, and will cost two or three
times as much, besides being more diff
ficult to prepare and apply
Peach leaf. curl is one of the easiest
of all fungous disease to control bv
spraying, rs only one application is
necessary but it must be made early in
the season, and care must be taken to
cover all the buds and branches with
spray.

NEW YORK, Dec. l0.-Just bear in
mind that bare feet are the essential
accessories Of the newest Grecian neg
llgee. At least, they are almost bare
since silver sandals are almost their
sole covering. A lovely Greeian model
of silver gauze and scarlet is offered
unon the sartorial shrine Of 1916. The
skirt is OF silver gauze and the short
innie IS Of silver figured in scarlet
with scarlet binding around the low
neck and flowing Grecian sleeves. A
fillet Of silver and scarlet al the head
and silver sandals at the feet prove
extreme attractions OF this artistic
new negligee Helen OF Troy may
have had something on the modern
maiden thus attired, but it's barely
possible that she had any less on her.
Given an oblong shawl Of gold EN-
broidered gauze. or even a yividly EN-
bellished Carmen shawl Of silk and
fringe and, with a little time and two
pins, any bright young thing can
swath her figure in the Turing draper
