cially red raspberries. In other parts
of the country they frequently prove
very injurious to peach, cherry and
sometimes to apple trees
Certain varieties of grapes and ber-
ries are also more susceptible than
others. The disease is not necessar-
lily fatal, but diseased trees are fre-
quently more or less stunted and
sometimes die from the effects of this
disease. The root system of many
varieties will be imperfect and the
trees can be readily blown out by
storms and cannot produce the maxi
mum crop of fruit Certain varieties
when affected will produce much
smaller crop than healthy trees. Such
trees will occasionally produce good
crops, but do pot thrive and produce
as we'll as healthy trees under the
same treatment When the disease is
predominant at the crown, the pos
sibility of growing fruitful trees, even
of the hardest varieties, is greatly
reduced.

HOW TO PLANT FRUIT TREES
Root Growth Is Retarded by Too Lib
eral Use of Manure-LittIe Bene-
fit From Watering


By ]. G. MOORE, Wisconsin Agricultural
College.)
The common practice OF using sta
BILE manure in planting fruit trees, is
one which cannot be recommended.
When a tree is planted its activity
should be the development of strong
and extensive root system. If large
amounts of fertilizer are placed around
the roots of tree the root growth
will naturally not be SO extensive as
under normal conditions because there
will be no necessity of its searching
far for sustenance.
When such method is followed and
the supply of food materials provided
at planting by the addition of stable
manure is exhausted, the root system
will not have grown sufficiently to Sc
cure food enough to keep UP normal
conditions in the growing tree. What
was done with the idea of helping the
tree will thus only serve to retard its
growth.
Under ordinary conditions little or
no benefit is derived from watering
newly-set trees. If water is applied
it should either be put on before the
top soil is filed in around the tree
or if applied to the surface, the soil
should not be left to become baked,
but must be stirred to depth of about
two inches and put in good tilth- If
this is not strictly adhered to more
moisture is likely to be lost than was
added at planting

A PROCLAMATION.

Whereas, A state of deep distress

Belgium to the extent that millions OF
women and children are starving, and
Whereas, because of the neutral at
titude of America towards all warning
nations, the great task OF staying the
hands of famine and suffering devolves
upon the people of this country, and
Whereas, Although VIC haso given
generously to these destitute people of
Belgium, there yet exists most
alarming shortage of food, and
Whereas. Our sacred duty to human
ity demands that every assistance pos
sible be given to those in such dis
tress,
Now therefore, |, r. L. Williams,
governor Of Oklahoma, respectfully
urge you, the people of this great state,
to cooperate with the Oklahoma com.
mission for relief in Belgium in its
effort to aid the unfortunate, and ask
that you give literally, so that through
your generosity, along with help OF
our sister states, the dreadful situa-
ton may be relieved and the suffering
Of these troubled people removed.
In witness whereof, | have hereunto
set my hand and caused to be affixed

SUBSCRIPTIONS RSTSs;
REPRoAcH TO AMERICA.

We hasten to put the label on the
language that we are going TO quote
below. Just at first glance you might
jump to the conclusion that it emanat-
ed from some Socialist agitator, but
YOU would be woefully mistaken. It
was written by the "capitalistic' com
missioner Of immigration at the port
Of New York, Frederick G. Howe, and
is the conclusion Of an article appear
ing in the "capitalistic' Century mag
azine. Here 1t is, read and reflect;
american remains almost the only
advanced nation that continues to ig-
more the fact that conditions of an
earlier age have long since passed
away. Social thought still treats the
worker as free man, able to turn his
hand to employment if he wills, when
in reality the land has been closed
against him, the tools OF employment
are I'm other hands, and the industrial
system is wholly beyond his control.
We have not yet begun to organize,
to provide means for clearance in in
dustry such as the banks have main
tanned for generation, we have not
recognized the necessity for housing
the itinerate worker, nor have we ac-
cepted the social obligation of sick
ness, accident, invalidity, and old age,
all incidents of modern industry and
all a proper charge against society IT,
self"
Howe is not only United States
official, but also a scholar of note, the
author OF books on social and politi
cal science which rank as authorita
tive. He isn't a Socialist by lonp
shot but he recognizes some conditions
that are the basis OF the Socialist com
plant. and he points the way for ap
plying remedies. He is social re
former and has practical ideas con
cerning the way to go about 1t.
We in America are accustomed tc
swell up and boast with exceedingly
great gusto on the Fourth of July and
other patriotic occasions about oul
superior civilization. Particularly
since the war In Europe began have
we derived satisfaction from the
thought that we are far too enlighten
ed and civilized to indulge in such say
age doin's but here we have the wore
of conservative that America is al
most the only advanced nation thai
continues to ignore the fact that con
ditions of an earlier age have Ions
since passed away"
Isn't it a reproach of the first mag
nitude to us that this should be true
Isn't it high time for America 70 b.
waking up and getting away from
those conditions? Thoughtful mei
and women of all classes may wei
ponder the words of Mr.. Howe ant
turn their attention to an open-minde'
study of the suggestions which h
throws out looking to the bettermen
of the condition Of the workers Of tn
nation.

AS VIEWED BY PHILOSOPHER
Happiness Not Always to Thobe Who
Make Great Catches In the
Worlds Fish Pond.

We have seen men absorbedly fish
ing for wealth, and we imagine that
when they fail to get it they are de.
feated and disappointed. Neither one.
The only men who are defeated in
this worldly fish pond r the ones
who haul up great bags Of gold on
their hooks. They are very Dol bur-
dened5 with the catch. and unable to
march comfortably farther along the
road. The only disappointed ones are
those who have no real purpose in
life. and suppose that fishing is an
end in itself. EJt - .r3
l had a great-uncle once who died
quite happy and bankrupt. Through.
out his life he was jubilantly full Of
schemes for making a fortune. But IL
his patent Touring mill had ever sue
ceeded, or his method for tanning
leather had brought him wealth, so
that he had been obliged to have two
houses and 20 servants and several
suits of clothes and bills and accounts
and lawsuits, I am sure he would
have died miserable.
Unfeeling and misunderstanding
persons are forever plying the old
maids, and especially those who seem
to be always angling for men. But
such behavior seems to me quite in
telligible and quite pardonable-espe-
cially II they never catch anything.
Having begun this game in early life,
earlier than l began fishing, and hav-
ing founded it on Instincts even deep
er than mine, they would be silly in
deed now to give up SO good a sport
just because they have found other,
and possibly more important, objects
