This is the most important single
spray Of the season. 1t not only con-
trolls the first brood larvae Of the cod
ling moth, but it also prevents, to a
great extent, the losses occasioned b.
the later broodS of the pest. 1t is also
an important spray in controlling the

KETTLE RIVER CO.
RECORDS MISSING
But for Compromise City would
Have Lost Suitably
Drum is Paid.

After the City Council had taken its
last step in compromising the old
Kettle River Quarries suit for the
maintenance Of the wood block pave
ment by ordering the city's special
attorney, Edward L. Drum, to be paid,
it became known that if the city had
not compromised, a trial of the suit
would have shown that the city could
never have recovered a cent.
The city sued the paving company
to force it to maintain the wood block
paving done in the Cape about five
years ago. By the terms of the COM
promise, the quarries company paid
the city $3.50 cash and turned over to
The city a car load of the wood blocks
to be used for making repairs.
The city was represented by Mr..
Drum, and l. r. kelso was attorney
for the quarries company. Mr.. Drum
last night submitted his bill to the
Council and it was approved, City
Clerk r. w. FrisSell being ordered to
draw a warrant for $50 for Mr.. Drum.
The opinion of Mr.. Drum that the
city never would have been able to
recover if its case had been tried in
court, is based upon the fact that the
Inr,,.N,py,+ hnnri,,r kbn considerations. fn
which the paving was to conform has
been removed from the city's records,
and Mr.. Drums investigation has
failed to discover where it was taken.
A bond was put up by the quarries
company TO maintain the pavement.
This maintenance bond never was
mentioned in the original contract
with the city, nor in the ordinance set
ting out the work to be done; so that
Mr.. Drum discovered that the bond
was useless because of the reason that
no consideration was made by the city
to the quarries company for the en-
forcement of the bond.
In a transaction of this kind it is
essential that some consideration be
passed, it is understood. The removal
of the specifications also would have
made it impossible for the city to
prove what kind of streets the quar-
ries company was supposed to have
maintained.
The Council last night referred a
bill of S75 from Sen. T. +. Lane for
his services in connection with the
city's case against the Public Utilities
Company back to the Auditing COM
mittee for further investigation.

SUES FOR BUILDING MATERIALS

A suit was fled yesterday by H. A.
Leher, Broadway timer, in Common
Pleas Court, to recover $305.35 from
/. f. Weast and r. b. Oliver on a bill
of materials used in the construction
and equipment of a house owned by
Mr.. Oliver on North Pacific street.
The suit was brought in order to
place the responsibility for paying for
the materials upon the bondsman who
became surety for the execution of
Weast'5 contract to do the work on the
house for Mr.. Oliver. Mr.. Weast, a
contractor, has left the Cape and
never settled the Leher account after
he had settled for the construction job
with Mr.. Oliver.

SPRAY APPLES AS
The BLOSSOMS FALL
To Battle Blooms in Poison
Would Kill the Bees,
Says Expert.
BY 7. J. TALBERT.

Spray the apple trees Immediately
after the blossom or petals fall, in
order to- fill each little calyx cup or
cavity at the end of the apple with
poison. About three-fourths of the
ccdling moth worms which hatch from
eggs three or four weeks later enter
the apples through this cavity. If we
succeed in putting a few grains of
arsenic or poison in the end of each
little apple, the first meal the apple
worm takes will be its last one.
Since the calyx cups, or ends of the
little apples, stand wide open for only
week or ten days after the blossoms
fall, the spray must be applied within
this time in order to be effective.

bond issue would have to get two
thirds of all the votes cast. and farm
ers say this could not be done. Unless
the proposition carried, the roads
could not be bridged and consequently
would not be passabIc.
Judge Kclly's decision sets aside
the opinion written by the late Judge
Ranney of the Common Pleas Court
less than a month before he died.
Judge Ranney, like Judge Kelly, dc
Clared the drainage law was d bad
law, but held that it was not apple
able to the case in court. His con
tention was that it was the duty Of
the drainage people to replace that
which they destroyed. A paragraph
copied from one of his statements
says:
81 do know the State statute
does not say that the County
must pay for bridges, the neces-
sity for which is created by the
drainage district.
81 know that many of the courts
in this land of late have been
prone to interpret the laws as
favorably to the drainage work as
possible. 1t is enlinently an adj
mirable and necessary work, but
in this case it seems to me that
there are peculiar extenuating
circumstances.
"Why should Cape Girardeau
County be taxed to. pay for
bridges that the drainage district
makes necessary by simply grab
bling a hole through the county
roads,"

BROTHERS-IN-LAW
MEET AFTER IS YRS.
Daniel Klein of Jackson Sees
st. LOuisan First Time
Since 1880.

Brother-in-laws who had not seer
each other in thirty-fve years, met il
Jackson yesterday. They were DAME
Klein of Jackson and Louis Divers OF
st. Louis.
The last time they met was in 1880
when Divers was married to a sister
Of Mrs. Klein. Since then they have
carried on correspondence, kept IL
close touch with each other, but age
overlook them between their two last
meetings.
Several times since 1850, MIR. Klein
has been in st. Louis on business and
called at the Divers home. but failed
to see his brother-in-law. To be exact
Klein visited the Divers home three
times, but Mr.. Divers was out Of the
city each time on business.
Divers is a wholesale hay dealer in
st. Louis and is considered wealthy.
Klein is harness and buggy dealer
in Jackson. They have been making
efforts to meet and talk over that
wedding Of 1880 for several years, but
were Just too busy to make con-
nections.
A short time ago Mr.. Divers deter
mined to visit the county-seat of Cape
Girardeau County and become better
acquainted with his brother-in-law.
"Why, | don't expect | would know
Dan if I were to meet him on the
street." he remarked to Mrs. Divers,
while discussing the length of time
that had elapsed since the wedding.
Mr.. Divers decided he would Just
visit Jackson without notifying his
He arrived yesterday
morning. Mr.. Klein was not at home
when he arrived and he spent few
hours calling on friends in Jackson.
Shortly before The noon hour Mr.. Div
ers and Mrs. Klein, mis- sister-in-law,
were discussing the last meeting be-
tween Divers and Klein, when the
latter approached.
Here is a man you ought to know,
Dan," said Mrs. Klein to her husband
"Well, his face is familiar, but I
can't call his name" said Mr.. Klein
as he looked searchingly at his broth
cr-in-law.
Divers smiled at Mr.. Klein ard
said: Don't you really know me,
DAM
81 know you all right, but l can't
call your name" replied the Jackson
man:
my name is Divers-Louie Divers
smiled the st. Louisan as he extended
his hand.
Klein grabbed it and they clinchod.
Gosh ding your old hide, Louie; |
haven't seen you since the wedding
thirty-five years ago"
That's right, Dan; we both have
neglected each other, but l am here
to spend a few days with you and get
acquainted all over again"
They walked away together, dis
cussing the only subject that mutually
both, and that was Mr..
Divers wedding, which took place
when they were Just young men.
They now are middle aged men, mar
ried long enough to be grandfathers.
and each financially able to retire.
When last they met both were
youths, and Mr.. Divers
is still without beard or mustache, but
Mr.. klein's upper and lower lips arc
hidden by a mustache and beard which
are sprinkled with gray.
Mr.. Divers expects to remain in
jackson long enough to get acquainted
and each asserts that they will not be
so negligent of each other again.

A suit for divorce yesterday was

What to Use.

Commercial lime sulphur at the rate
Of l y gallons to 4Sl2 gallons of water
and to pc pounds of arsenatc OF
lead paste TO each 80 gallons of SPRAY
mixture should be used. The dry or
powdered form Of the arSenate of lead
may also be used with the line SUI
phur at the rate of to Il pounds u
so gallons.
The trees should not be sprayed
while in full bloom. Such work would
interfere with pollinatiOn and DESTROY
the fruit growers best friend-th2
honey bee. 1t is safe to spray when
two-thirdS Of the petals have fallen,
because the flow of nectar has practi-
cally stopped and but few, if any, bees
will be injured. This should be the
most thorough and drenching spray OF
the season. A nozzel throwing a
rather coarse driving spray with high
pressure should be used in order to
force the poison down into the calyx
cups.
The weekly tribune and the Cape County herald. (Cape Girardeau, Mo.) 1914-1918, 1916-05-05
Later Sprays Nccess Try.

The next spray should be applied
about two or three weeks after thi-
one. This will be ABOUT the time the
first brood OF codling moth eggs are
Matching, and if the surface of the
leaves and fruit art thicl;ly peppered
with the poisonous spray, many of the
worms will be killed by feeding slight
" before they reach the blossom END
of the little apples. Since this is also
the first important spray against the
apple blotch, Bordeaux mixture should
be used with the arscnate of lead il
apple bIotch is prevalent in your
orchard.
About eight or nine weeks after the
blossom or calyx spray, the next an-
plicatiOn should be made, using the
same chemicals. This is an important
spray against the second brood of the
codling moth and lesser apple worms,
also the plum curculio, apple blotcn
and other insect pests and diseases.
Later sprays may be necessary, bu;
under average conditions, the work as
outlined above, if thoroughly done.
should control not only the codling
moth. but the other important insect
pests and diseases of the orchard.
