More Prosperity.

We no longer hear talk OF returning
prosperity. because prosperity has al
ready returned. All sections Of the
country are now feeling the effects OF
increased business and the crest Of
the great wave is not yet in sight, ac-
cording to authorities who are in pO-
sltion 10 know. Every bulletin issued
by the government reflects prosperity.
The federal reserve board has Just is
sued a monthly survey of business
conditions over the United States.
This survey is not written for any po-
litical purpose. II Is not padded" or

forward with this report: THE vol

month was probably greater than In

ports continue, each city declaring
trade conditions excellent.
Perhaps the European war has some
thing to do with this wave Of prosper

fact that il helps certain lines of bus.
mess But we do not think, and we
do not believe many people can be
persuaded to think that the war is the
solo cause of American prosperity.
One of the principle reasons is the re-
turn OF confidence IN this country
since the firing of the first gun across
the water. Another is that Americans
are beginning to realize that they can
do for themselves what they have ask,
ed others TO do for them during the
past.

SPRAYING For CodIinq Moth.

In answer to correspondent who
asks when it is necessary to spray for
the codling moth and whether spray
ing for the San Jose scale will hurt
trees already in bloom, BIOLOGIST H. A.
Surface of the Pennsylvania depart
ment of agriculture says:
at is always considered necessary to
spray all apple pear and ounce trees
for this pest when they are bearing
fruit. If there is no fruit on your
trees there is no need to spray for
codling moth. AS you doubtless know,
this is the insect that makes wormy
apples, pears and ounces Every good
fruit grower sprays for this pest, If
for no other. The first spraying is
made shortly after the petals or flow
erS fall, and the second spraying is
made about Il month from that date.
The material that should be used is
one gallon and one quart Of strong
lime sulphur solution, either home
made or commercial, in forty-nine gal
Ions of water and to this is added
either one pound of dry arsenate of
lead or two pounds of arsenate Of lead
paste For the second spray use the
same material as for the first
"Where you have much San Jose
scale present it is a good plan to wash
all the bark Of trunks or twigs that
can be reached with a paint brush
dipped in very strong lime sulphur
solution or very strong thick soap So
luton, or spray the infested trees
when the young are crawling on the
bark with tobacco decoction, kerosene
emulsion or soap solution. After the
leaves drop this fall spray again with
the strong lime sulphur solution"

Mexican Names.

Mexican names that are euphonious
in Spanish are awkward when pro-
nounced as in English. The vowels
have the same sound as in German
J has the sound of a strongly as
pirated H, and the H is mute The
double r is rolled, and the double L
is followed by the consonant sound Of
Y. The accent is on the ultimate
when the word ends in a consonant,
usually on the penultimate when end
ing in a vowel. Exceptions are indi-
Gated by use of the accent mark.

quickly modifying his organization in
response to changed markets, but such
reimbursement is of great value to the
whole community, for such action in
time becomes corrective of the changed
condition from which it sprang. Let
us assume, for instance, that there is
a community engaged largely in live
stock production and that through some
cause feed prices advance to such a
point that there is more money in sell
ing the raw product than in feeding.
Under such conditions q large number
of farSeeing farmers will quickly cur
tail their live stock industry and be-
come sellers Of raw feed products.
This in turn has tendency to reduce
feed prices and to increase the price
of live stock products, thus bringing
about the former balance.
