and life history. so as to know what
treatment to use and at what stage
in the life Of the organism. Too much
emphasis can not be placed upon the
necessity OF doing the work at the
right time with the proper solution
and with thoroughness Of application.
The most successful applications for
plant diseases are made before the
diseases appear because the rem
edies are preventives rather than
cures. The vegetative portion Of the
fungus producing the disease grows
within h tissue Of the host plant and
cannot be reached after 1t has OBJ
tanned a foothold.j Proper application
OF a fungicide will, however, prevent
the spread Of the disease to other
plants. The best time to spray for
diseases. therefore, Is about the time
the spores are ripening and being dis
tributed.
There are two general classes of
diseases. % Fungus diseases are
those caused by the growth Of fungi,
which are small parasitic plants. (2)
Bacterial diseases are those caused by
the growth of bacteria. Under the first
head are most of the common dis
eases, as the bitter rot of the apple,
brown rot of the peach, and plum,
apple rust, apple scab, potato scab,
tomato rot, cucumber a~nthracnose
and mildew, etc. These can be success
fully kept in check by spraying. Under
the second head. are such diseases as
pear blight or fire blight. This can
not be controlled by spraying because
all Of the growth is within the host
plant The first thing to do is to find
out what the trouble is. then proceed
practically in the work. Your state ex-
pertinent station urges that you come
to them for assistance. The informa-
ton gathered from this source will be
Of much greater value to o than a
be derived from any other source
That Is what state experiment stations
are for-to And out by actual tests
and intelligent observation, about all
these things, and then tell you about
them.

means to walk the streets looking for
a job. The liquor interests have cap
Iitalized upon this fear, and by pre-
senting a staggering array OF figures
which seem to prove that calamity
will follow the abolition Of the liquor
traffic, they have persuaded large
numbers of workingmen who never
enter a saloon to vote for its reten-
tion.
"But the argument that the work
ingman will lose his job II the liquor
traffic is abolished is based upon the
absurd proposition that If the liquor
dealer fails to get the money now
spent for beer and whiskey nobody
else will get it.
at is assumed that farmer who
now sells grain and grapes, his apples
and cherries to the liquor interests
will be compelled to. destroy them !.
when the fact Is that figures furnished
by the United States government
clearly indicate that the. ability OF
the American farmer to raise enough
grain to adequately supply this coun-
TRY is gradually decreasing:
Neither will the railroad man suf-
fer. Only about two per cent OF his
freight business is furnished by the
liquor industry. He will get as much
business, and as much money for the
transfer of a given amount of grain.
whether that grain is shipped to- a
brewer or baker. AS for the trans
portation of the finished product
there is no doubt that other indus
tries will benefit from the transfer
of trade from liquor - some other
commodity.
More workingmen 1.,se their Jobs
because saloons are open than would
be the case were the saloons to be
closed. A some one has said, When
liquor puts a man out OF a job It
makes him wealth producing work
ingman instead of q wealth destroy
ing working man. It is better that
the saloon keeper should love his job
and get better one than that dozens
of his patrons should lose their jobs
and be untitled for any job"
