Fight on Flies Urged.

Put in screen doors and windows
now, is the advice of the state board
of health against the coming of warm
the department says:
Warm weather is about here, and
according to the nature OF warm
weather and flies, flies will be here by
the hundredfold in about a week or
ten days, and whoever would be pre-
pared against their arrival would have
their doors and windows we'll screened
Doors that remained in place all win
ter are likely to be found sagging or
with holes punched in them, or per-
haps this was the condition in which
they were put away last fall Any
way, it is time that old screens are re-
paired and put in place, and that or
ders are given for new ones wherever
they are needed"
The bulletin says that since the win
ter flies were not swatted and have
found feeding and perhaps breeding
places about the premises, the best
thing to do. since they are here, is to
screen them out. 1t is suggested that
extension screens are not the most de-
sirable kind. Screens that are made
to fit doors and windows tightly are
much more efficient and in the long
run are cheaper If these cannot be
afforded now, mosquito netting can
well be used for another season. This,
if well put up, tackled close and made
firm will, it is believed, prove better
than extension or ill-ftting screens
and will last a season.
There really is no reason" con
cludes the board, why anyone should
tolerate flies, except from his own
choice"

Bv L. C. CORRECTLY

10y l.. \. tOIlb IL
The practical grower of trees and
shrubs is frequently taken to task by
the would-be tree protector because
he cuts out branches which are nei-
Their broken nor dead, but are in a
healthy, fourishing condition. The ar
gument used by this critic is that in
nature it is not necessary to cut out
branches and otherwise mutiIate
trees; that, in order to allow the plant
to assume it's natural and normal form
no pruning should be done and that
the use of the knife is detrimental
to the best interests of the tree, and
should therefore be discouraged The
practical grower, however, knows too
well the results which follow from
this laissez faire method of handling
trees in orchards, parks, and other
ornamental plantations
Under natural conditions plants
grow thickly; one crowds upon the
other, and in that way all superfluous
individuals as well as branches are
crowded out. Under artificial condi-
tiOns there is no such force at work
Plants are placed at distances which
prevent this natural pruning. The in
creased amount of food available to
plants under artificial conditions fre-
quently excites growth, so that the
distance between the different whorls
of branches, which naturally develop
from near the end of the growth of
each season, becomes great, thus Civ
ing the plant an open form and the
appearance of having been built by
stories. By judicious use of the
pruning knife the gardener shortens
this annual growth, thus reducing the
distance between the branches formed
in successive years, with the result
that the tree has a more compact and
symmetrical form and therefore is
better suited to serve the purpose Of
an orchard or ornamental tree.
With such plants as the peach,
which bears its fruit upon the growth
of the previous year, pruning is of
great Importance, as the grower can
reduce the crop in proportion to the
capacity of the tres, Successful fruit
growers thoroughly understand the
Importance Of gauging the quality of
fruit allowed to be horne by a tree
to the capacity of the tree, the ability
Of the tree in this respect being meas
ured by the rate of growth, the variety,
and the soil and climatic conditions
to which it is subjected.
Pruning is of prime importance also
in controlling the action of some of

Madison.-In the student voting
cases, Judge E. Ray Stevens OF cir
cult court decided that it is not nee
essary that the voter should intend to
remain permanently in this city. He
holds that even an intent to return
to his home in another state at some
future time does not prevent him from
acquiring a residence here if he comes
with the intention of remaining for
an indefinite time as place of pres
ent residence"
In substance, the decision of the
court means that if a student, or any
one else, comes here and establishes
bis residence here for an indefinite pc
Rod, he has a right to vote here.
Judge Stevens held that Albert AS

vote here.

ing to the decision. The court held
that he does not state any facts show

home is in Kentucky.

our most dreaded plant diseases. The
study Of pear-blight, for instance, has
shown that this disease is very gen
orally communicated from plant to
plant by insects, through the pollen,
as they pass from blossom to blossom,
or, later in the season, from shoot to
shoot. 1t is also believed that the
disease can be carried by the wind
and that infection can take place
while the vegetable processes are &C
tive and the tissue at the ends Of the
branches can easily be entered by
the germs of the disease.
The habit of the plum to bear early
and abundantly under favorable con-
ditions limits it's annual growth ID
such an extent that after the bearin =
age is attained little annual pruning
is necessary other than to remove
dead Or interfering limbs or to head
back an occasional strong shoot which
may appear from time to tine in the
center Of the crown. The plum, as
well as the cherry, has the annoying
habit OF occasionally producing strong
shoots from adventurous buds along
the trunk Of the tree or from near the
surface OF the ground. A close watch
should be kept for such interlopers
in order that they may be promptly
removed.

To Fioht Pine Blister.

j. G. Sanders, entomologist of the
Wisconsin department of agriculture,
and other entomologists Of western
states, are taking precautions to head
off an invasion of the white-pine bis
ter rust, which has appeared in New
Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts,
Connecticut, New York and Pennsyl-
vania. This disease infests white
pine forests and currant and goose
berry bushes.
The disease came to America from
a German nursery. 80 per cent of the
infections il America being traced to
this source.
The United States department Of az.
riculture has issued a notice of pro-
posed quarantine, but action in this d.
rection has not been taken by the fed
eral authorities. The western entomol-
ogists are seriously considering estab-
fishing quarantine against shipments
likely to be infested with this dis
ease. If quarantine is established
it would prohibit the entry Of five
leayed pine nursery stock and of nur-
sery stock of currants and gooseber-
ries from Canada, Europe and Asia
and the states named above.
The importance of protecting the
White-pine forests from the blister rust
will be readily appreciated when it is
known that there is S96,000,000 worth
of mature white pine in the lake
states and 100000 worth of western
white pine, all of which would be at
tackled by the blister rust, if the dis
ease gets by the authorities.

During the early years of the
growth of both of these plants care
should be exercised to secure a proper
distribution Of the limbs which are to
form the framework branches of the
tree, particularly with the Japan
plums and the sweet cherries, as both
these species have the unfortunate
habit of dividing into two shoots of
nearly euqal size with close angle
between, which always forms a weak
joint. Trees not carefully pruned to
overcome this bad habit are liable to
severe injury from splitting when
heavily loaded with fruit.
