SPRAY FRUIT TREES
And OFTEN
Even If Nothing Has Yet Been
Done Orchard Can Be Pro-
teCted By Prompt Work
WHAT SPRAY TO USE AND when
Some Varieties of Fruit Require spe-
cial Attention-All Require Some
Care to Get Best Fruit for Table
and for Market.

tension, University of Tennessee.)
1t is impossible to grow good or.
chard fruits without spraying the trees
while the fruit is developing. One can
have apples Of kind-Wormy scab-
by, rotted apples-that will scarcely
sell at any price, and are too poor to
offer to friends, But the man who
wants to sell his fruit at a profit, or
who takes pride in the fruit he sup
plies his friends, must spray.
Self-boiled lime-sulphur solution, or
prepared lime-sulphur solution diluted
fifty to one, is the best spray for
peaches. 1t is now too late to prevent
wormy fruit, but next year as soon as
the bloom falls, spray the peach trees
thoroughly with three to four pounds
of arsenate of lead and six pounds Of
lime to fifty gallons Of water. When
the calyx or husk falls from the
peach-about three weeks after the
bloom has fallen-spray with prepared
lime-sulphur solution, one gallon to SO
gallons of water, to which add three
pounds Of arsenate Of lead.
If no spraying has been done yet
this year, spray at once with the pre-
pared lime-sulphur solution diluted
one to fifty. Repeat this spray at in
tervals of three to four weeks until
a month before the variety is ripe. .
Early varieties such as Greensboro
and Carman will require two sprays;
Elberta, three; and late peaches from
four to six. A good force pump should
be used and a thorough job should be
made of it.
Bordeaux mixture is the best spray
for apples. The first spraying should
be done just after the petals fall and
before the scales at the end of the
tiny fruit close. Use four pounds
copper sulphate and six pounds Of
lime to so gallons Of water, and add, 4
pounds of arsenate of lead to the
solution. The copper sulphate (blue
vitrioD is dissolved in barrel or
other wooden vessel, and the lime
Stacked in another. Strain the Stacked
lime and pour the two solutions to-
gether, adding water enough to make
so gallons. Apply with as much pres
sure as possible to force the spray into
the blossom ends of the fruit.
After the first time, applications
should be made month apart, omit.
ting the arsenate. Summer apples
should have three sprayings and win.
ter varieties six. The late varieties
are subject to bitter rot, which can
be controlled best by frequent spray
ing.
Spray early, thoroughly and often.

why YOU ARE NERVOUS
lie nervous system is the alarm sys.---

TIE nervous system IS the alarm sys..---
,le human body.
In perfect health we hardly realize that
we have a network of nerves, but when
health is ebbing, when strength is declin>
ing, the same nervous system gives the
alarm in headaches, tiredness, dreamful
sleep, irritability and unless corrected,
leads straight to a breakdown.
To correct nervousness, SCOTS Emul-
sion is exactly what you should take; its
rich nutriment gets into the blood and
rich blood feeds the tiny nerye-cells while
the whole system responds to its refresh
ing tonic force. 1t is free from alcohol.

A GLOWING TRIBUTE
Big Audience Assembled as Mark
Of Respect to Veteran Heroes

The memorial day service at the
Standard theatre Tuesday morning
was a very impressive affair and
showed plainly that the people of
this community appreciate fully the
great debt of gratitude we owe to
those sacrifices this government was
pepetuated. The service was under
the direct supervision of the Dangh-
ters OF Veterans, and every feature
of the program showed that a lot OF
work, by way of arrangement and
preparation, had been done.
The program as given in the last
issue was carried out, except for tho
addition of solo by Mrs. Peake
Mrs. Rich Thompson presided at
the meeting, and also was one OF
the active workers In making arrange
ments for 1T. The musical numbers
including orchestra selections, vocal
selections by ladies' quartet, male
quartet, girls glee club and two solos,
"The Star Spangaed Banner" by Mrs.
Wetherell and solo by Mrs. Peake,
were all very good. Lincon's Gettys-
burg Address," by Albert White. was
very we'll received by the audience.
and a flag drll by some twenty small
children made a great hit. The open
ling prayer was offered by Rev. Mason
Rev. Joyce Kendall pronounced the
benedictlon, and Rev. A. L. Wood
made short address on patlotism.
The principal speaker of the day
was Hon Will II. Gibson who, In his
usual eloquent manner, recounted
the great sacrifice made by those
whose memory has been reverently
implanted In the hearts and minds of
the American people, how ready they
were to respond to the CALI OF their
country and what an inspiration
their example had proven to the loyal
patriotic citizenship of the country
which has grown to be the greatest
on earth He expressed the thought
that the debt of gratitude we owe to
those who stayed at home during
the trying times of this natlon.-to
the wives and mothers and sisters, 10
equally as great as to those who faced
death upon the battle fields. Their
sacrifice was just as great, and their
suffering just as intense.
On the stage we're seated four
veterans of the Civil war: w. s.
White, George Pool, Amos Grim and

SUPREME COURT AFFlRMs

In the case of Charles b. Smith
and Benjamin Moyses, plaintiffs and
appellants, VS.. j. b. Stantield and
twenty-five otheE citizens and cOrpor-
ations of this place, defendants, the
Supreme Court last week handed
down a decision in which the judg-
ment of the District Court is sus-
tanned.
This was an action brought by the
appellants to quiet title to a large
number OF distinct and separate
tracts of land in the town and in
the vicinity of the town of Mountain
Home. On account OF the great mum
Der of defendants and the number of
separate tracts to which the appel
lants sought title, there has been
great interest in the case. All the
attorneys i'm town have been at work
on the case representing different
groups of defendants.
The judgment of the District Court
was in favor of the defendants, and
now that this judgment has been
sustained by the Supreme Court, the
case is probably finally settled.

MUST PUT IN WEIRS

On Wednesday Governor Alexander
appeared before the Utilities Com
mission and secured an order from
that body by which the Mountain
Home Cooperative Irrigation Co. is
instructed to put in weirs. The text
of the order lis as follows:
"The Commission believes that
wiens should be inst allied at once, II
any satisfactory measurements are to
be made during the season and since
there are no funds available to meet
the expenses of the same in the
hands of the Commission or the state
engineer, the Commission finds that
the said Mountain Home Cooperative
Irrigation Company should, at this
time, bear the expense of the necee-
sary weirs and the installation of
the same, subject to the apportion-
ment OF such expenses among the
parties in interest at further hear
ing of said cause in the event that
the commission finds that such appor
tionment should be made.
1t Is therefore ordered that the
Mountain Home Cooperative Irriga-
ton Company proceed at once to i'm
stall weirs and make such measure
ments as are necessary to ascertain
the water supply available for Its
Irrigation system; such installation
and measurements to be made under
the supervision of the State En-
gineer of the State of Idaho.
Done in open session at Boise,
Idaho, this 31st day of May, 1916.
From manager VIII II. Gibson, of
the Irrigation Co., it Is learned that
the wiers referred to In the above
order are to be installed in Canyon
and Long Tom creeks above the
company's reservoir for the purpose
of measuring the water flowing into
the reservoir. The weirs are being
installed by the company under the
direction OF the State Engineer
