IMPROVEMENT ASSN.
HAVE BEEN ON THE JOB

AT the monthly meeting Of the Civic
Improvement association on Satur-
day afternoon, a report was received
from the committee which visited busi
ness places with Health Officer Sedg-
wick on Cleanup day. This commit
tee gave special attention to places
handling food products, and was en-
tirely unannounced and reports condi-
tions quite satisfactory, the late spring
however, having delayed some good in
tentions, in the way Of cleaning up
rear alleys. Suggestions were re-
ceived as given. in spirit Of kindly
cooperation. N
Cleanup day collection was much
retarded by rains, which made the
dumping ground inaccessible. Mr.. T.
E. Munroe presented, by request, a
plan for the adequate lighting Of Me-
dina's attractive park; a boulevard
system, with underground wiring and
high-powered lamps. The associa-
ton is considering this somewhat ex-
pensive proposition seriously, and in
vites all interested to discuss the mat

SPRAY FRUIT TREES,
SAYS COUNTY AGENT

B. G. Daniels, county agricultural
agent, is not content to look after the
outlined routine duties Of his Office, but
is scattering suggestions here and
there on his trips through the county
as to many advantages to be gained
by farmers and those who are trying
to garden in small way, from his ex-
perience as farmer.
This week he has confined himself
to the question of spraying fruit trees,
According to Mr.. Daniels, now is the
accepted time for spraying, If it has
not been done before. He says that
the first spraying should be done just
after the petals have fallen; the Sec
ond about two weeks later; the third
between June 25 and July 10. The
solution for the spray is made by us
ing from three to five pounds Of arse
nate of lead, one gallon Of lime sui
phur, to fifty gallons of water. These
sprayings should be done thoroughly,
with good force sprays. If this is
followed, says Mr.. Daniels, great
deal Of fruit, such as apples, pears,
cherries, plums, ounces, etc., will be
saved.
