NEW YORK, Oct Ij.-The Goose

Adirondack montamecr than is taught
in the Cornell agricultural school or in

of twenty Young mon under Emmett j.
Ryan, ir., is swarming mountain and val

white pine blister by destroying goose
berry and currant bushes, hence their
nickname, signifying derision and con
tempt on the part of the aggrieved ma

To be briefly technical: the white pine
blister Is as certain to destroy, once II
takes hold, is is the chestnut blight The
blister in the shape Of tiny spores, grows
ON goosebcrry and currant leaves only.
Thence it floats through the air to fasten
ON white pine trees, where it quickly
forms batcrs that ring the trunks and
cause speedy decay
The spores cannot reproduce on the
pines but must he transferred 10y the
wind to the bushes. where they prop
agate and hike back to the tree again. and
So on.
1t is the business Of experts to instill
this idea into the minds of the Adron-
dack people, and at the same time pull,
dig ont and destroy all eurraut and
gooeebcrry bushes, both cultivated and
wild. And here is where the trouble
comes IN for this flock of garden devasta-
