Political circles still stirred today
as a result Of the charge made by the
Democratic national committee that
Charles e. Hughes, contracted a "cam-
paign deal" through jeremiah A. o.
Leary whereby he was to procure for
Hughes the Irish-Amerlcan and Ger
man-American vote, which charge, by
the war, Mr.. Hughes has vehementiy
denied.
The Democratic National Campaign
Committee asserted that Hughes In
conference with O'Leary practically
repudiated Col. Roosevelt and assur-
ed O'Leary that his (Hughes') cam
paign speeches Of the future would be
entirely satisfactory to the interests
represented by o'Leary. 1t was al
legged that O'Leary reported back to
this effect to the American Independ.
encc Conference, Of which he is lead
ing member.

I'm 1915, during a very rainy sea-
son, the results obtained with three
applications Of the poisoned bait spray
containing a soluble poison dissolved in
diluted molasses, showed that the in

in orchards situated away from the
margin of the experimental area, and
from 80 to 81 per cent. in orchards near
untreated trees.
1.-THE fruit fly remedy has been a
complete failure in the control of the
pest under town conditions. With four
applications of the spray the infestation
varied from to SO per cent"
| 1t will thus be seen that under town
conditions, or in n-isolated orchards
where flies can readily go from one
group of trees to another it was found
to be of no use to apply the poisoned
spray with a view to controlling the
apple fruit fly.

experimental foundation of but two
seasons work, in order to serve as a
suggestion to owners of isolated orch
