CUT OUT APPLE FIREBLlGHT.
Is Only Method Of Combating Disease
so Prevalent This Year.

How to combat fireblight which 10
unusually destructive on apple trees
turnout Iowa this year. Is the oues-
ton being asked in many letters re-
ceived by the horticultural department
at Iowa State College. Some growers
state that their crop has been short
ened several thousand bushels thru
injury to the fruit spurs by blight
The blight is a contagious, bacterial
disease which attacks the twigs. bios
sons, larger branches and trunk of
apples. pears and closely related
plants. It's first appearance Is noticed
when the leaves blacken as II scorchod
by fire. hence the name fireblight.
Sometimes trees will look as II the
whole top were scorched.
The only method Tor combating this
blight successfully says the depart
ment. is to cut of and burn the az
fected twigs. This is quite success-
fully done in pear orchards. but in
large apple orchards where blight Is
confined to smaller twigs this Is al
trees where blight gets into larger
branches. however. 1t Is advisable to
cut out the limb back far enough to
avoid all diseased tissue.
Because, in early spring the disease
is spread principally by plant lice and
other sucking insects a control meas
ure for blight consists in combating
these insects. To do this add nico-
tine sulphate to the regular spray mix
lures. The leading preparation on
the market is known as Black Leaf 40.
Apply at the rate Of part to 500 parts
water or spray solution.

OPERATORS MAINTAIN COST TO-
CONSUMERS CAN NOT BE
REDUCED.
CONSUMPTION EXCEEDS
OUTPUT OF IOWA MINES
State Produces 100000 Tons Annually
And Operators Estimate Total De-
mand is in Excess Of Production
Industrial Committee Of Defense
Council Delays Report.

Special to Times Republican.
Des Moines, July 1.-THE industrial
committee of the state council Of de-
tense has given out nothing as yet con-
corning the probable cost Of coal to the
Iowa consumer, nor as to its findings
on the cost of production. There is
little to indicate that the retail price
Of coal will be reduced. The operators
maintain that it will not be reduced,
but rather, that the price will be higher
later in the season.
The public. however, is storing COM
paratively little coal at the present
time, according to all reports. There
is hope that the government or the
state may be able to do something to
reduce the price, and for that reason
many Of those who otherwise would
buy their coal early are not buying
The operators continue to maintain that
there will be serious shortage in the
winter unless the public lays in its
winter supply early.
The output Of the Iowa mines is about
100000 tons per year, and while the
total consumption Of the state has
never been accurately estimated, the
operators claim that it is more than
that. They say that with the eastern
coal shut off and Iowa having to de-
pend on it's own mines for coal. the
output will have to be increased thru
sales this summer If the demand is to
be supplied this winter.
Must Consider Labor Problem.
Last winter a miners strike was mar
rowly averted in the dead of winter,
when the miners found that the oper-
ators were enjoying a considerable ad-
vance in the prices received for coal,
while their wage, under their previous
agreement, was not raised. 1t looked
like strike for several days, but the
miners were prevailed to stand by their
contract. Since that time they have
received an increase, but it is probable
that they will again become dissatisfied
in the winter If prices take still fur
Their jump.
The eastern mines are reporting
shortage Of miners and Of cars for
shipment, which, on top of an increased
demand, Is increasing the possibilities

seImond Woman Dies Suddenly.

Redmond. July 17.-This community

hear of the sudden death Of Mrs. P. L..
Morse. Death was due to heart fall
ure. She apparently had been in good

comfort bag for her son, Rufus. who
was to leave Friday evening to join
the national guard at Davenport. She
had phoned to one Of the stores for
a certain kind of thread toNput in the
bag, and Miss Mary Barry, who brought
it a few minutes later, discovered Mrs.
Morse dead on the kitchen floor.
Funeral services were held Sunday
afternoon at the Methodist church, in
torment being in Franklin Grove GEM
etery.
Mrs. Morse was 43 years of ago at
the time of her death, and had lived
in Belmond about twenty-five years.
She was one Of the pleasentest or
women and was very we'll liked by all
who knew her. Her passing will be
mourned by the entire community.

they may be carried over from one sea-
son to the next and increase In value
each year. They furnish almost a ball
anced ration, and only little supple-
ment need to be fed to obtain a nor
mai growth Of the pigs.
One Of the chief advantages OF per-
manent pasture is its long growing sea-
son. Growth continues from spring I'm.
til fall. and the forage Is palatable and
nutritious at almost any time. Either
few hogs may be grazed during the
whole season. or, after the pasture has
made considerable growth, a largo
number may be pastured for short
time with practically equal results in
the amount of pork produced per acre:
showing that a permanent pasture is
adapted to a variety of conditions in
the forage-crop plan.
A permanent pasture then takes the
place of reserve forage crop, being
called upon to furnish grazing at any
time of the year when other pastures
fail or are exhausted. The first thing
to be done when one contemplates en-.
gaging in stock raising Is to establish
permanent pasture. 1t fits into the
forage-crop succession at any point

DOES COW TESTING PAY?
Success Of First Years Experiments at

It's one year old, the West Branch

so, since anniversaries usually call
forth inventories, it's proper time to
scan the books and see why this has
been called zone of the livest-wire COW
testing associations in the state Brief
~ here's what has been accomplished
during it's first years existence:
Practically every member says that
thru better feeding, housing and use
Of tank heaters his returns have in
creased 20 per cent.
BY keeping records OF their cows
members have been able to sell good
cows for IS to 500 more per head.
One member says that of the s1055
she received for butterfat during the
year, one-fourth more came In during
the six months after she Joined the as
sociation than before. Flom her herd
OF seventeen COWS were culled out sew
en- star boarders. which were replaced
by four better cows.
Another member has reduced his feed
bill SIZE per head a month and re-
ceives as good returns.
BY cleaning up and putting separa-
tors on q firmer foundation the tester
saved members much money. In one
case he cut the amount Of butterfat
lost in the milk from 20 per cent to
.03 per cent.
Fifty COWS and nine pure bred sres
were bought and eighty one cows sold,
mostly for beef
Six slos were built.
A cooperative egg marketing asso-
