is for apple scab, codling moth and

The third summer spray should be
applied about two weeks after the sec

troll of apple scab, and any codling
moth or curculio that may still be

of apple orchards in Illinois will fol-

the materials mentioned, apply them
thoroughly and at the proper time,
they will have little difficulty in rails

BRAZIL MAY REVOKE
NEUTRALITY DECREE

RIO JANEIRO, May II. (Delayed).-
It is believed that Brazil will shortly re-
woke the decree of neutrality as affecting
the war between the United States and
Germany.
The Brazilian government severed diplo-
matte relations with Germany April II,
and April 20 a proclamation Of neutrality
in respect to the war between the United
States and Germany was issued. A dis
patch from Rio Janeiro. April 80. said
that it was explained in, official circles
there that the Brazilian governments
declaration Of neutrality was a mere for
mality. intended to set forth the country
position exactly on the eve Of the meet
ing Of congress. 1t was said that as Bra
zil had merely broken off relations with
Germany and was not in state of war
with Germany she could not fail to de-
clare her neutrality in conformity with
diplomatic usages
Further action was left in the hands
Of congress, which was to convene May
3. There have been no reports of any
decisive action by the Brazilian congress.
