GROWTH IS RETARDED
But COpiOus Showers Have Been
Beneficial to Grass.

The Weekly Bulletin of the Iowa
Weather and Crop Service Tor the
week ending April %, 1916, says:
Another cold week has further re-
tardcd the growth of vegetation, but
frequent and ,copious showers have
been very beneficial y, to grass. and
iBmall grain.g The showers did, how
ever. interfere with field work in
many sections. Spring seeding is
nearly finished and, the early sown
grain is up and shows a fair to good
stand. Fall wheat is, in most. sec
tions, improving, but winter killing
has been considerable, especially on
north slopes, and. the appearance of
Hessian fly is reported in Madison
county. Much plowing, has been
done preparatory to corn planting and
some planting has been done in south
ern counties, where the work will be-
come general during the coming week
liz favorable weather. prevails. Fruit
trees are in bloom near the Missouri
border, with variable reports as to
conditions and prospects. but mostly

DOCTORINC THE TREES
Specialists Are Operating On Those
in The ParR.

Oskaloo3as public park is in the
hands OF company OF tree special
lists and doctors and is being treated
to a trimming and dressing that will
result in permanent good. The work
is being done under the direction OF
the Park Committee, Messrs. Kess-
Ter, Snyder and Bell.
The men are employesCof the +. l..
Phelps Forestry and. Landscape Gar;
den Company OF q. Rockford Illinois,
with. A. Saunders as foreman, John
Gaylong, an oriental, and Harry Roth,
assistants. These men climb to the
topmost branches and rival the SPUR
rels in their nimbleness and activity
through the body of the trees.
Mr.. Sanders finds some badly dis.
eased trees in the park and at least
one of the best elms is in a dying
stage by reason of injection, San
Jose scale is also prevalent and the
health Of the lark trees is going to
call for careful attention and eontin-
ued home treatment sooner or later
If the trees are to be preserved.
Work being done is of a sci1ntific
character and will tend to correct
troubles, but the presence Of scale
and other pests can be handled only
through careful attention.
