SPRAYING MUST
BE DONE TO SAVE
COUNTY APPLES

In order to stem the increase OF
anthracnose, or the apple tree cank-
el' that is causing much damage in
orchards in all parts of the county, S.
H. Van Trump, county fruit inspector
today warned growers that unless
they spray, or take other steps to
check the disease. the crop for next
season would be virtually ruined. In
speaking of the situation he recon-
mended that all apple growers spray
their trees this winter with the Bor-
deaux oil emulsion spray-a mixture
said to be the only certain one TO kill
the canker.
This emulsion spray was evolved
by DIR. c. A. Marcum, commissioner
for the fourth district. state board of
horticulture.
The method of preparation is as
follows: Prepare the copper sulphate
solution in the usual proportions of
one pound to the gallon of water,
dissolve one and one half pounds of
common glue in one and one half
gallons OF water slack twelve pounds |
of lime, or stir twelve pounds Of hy |
drafted lime in water at time of using. /

fourths fun of water. Pour twenty .
four gallans of bluestone solution in

home in Hollywood, could not be
reached early today with regard TO
the offer of Promoter Cochran in
London for fight with Carpenter

ed with them.
Dempsey, both in public and pri-
vate. has made it clear that he wants
to fight in this country, feeling that
a challenger should come to the title
holder for chance at the worlds
crown. Dempsey frankly says that

The War Department had to wait 4
years time before the industries Of
our country were remodeled from
peace industries into war industries
II took that long to convert the pro-
verbal ploughshares into swords with
which to win the war.
And now, after the war II won, the
War Department Is Just as anxious to
remoid the swords into .ploughshares.
Colonel Arthur Woods, Assistant to
the Secretary Of War. is endeavortns
to correlate all the existing agencies
to find employment for the ex-service
man.
He has appealed to the patriotism
and good sense Of the employers to
give preference to the ex-service men.
Four hundred thousand men are
being discharged monthly from the
Army's service, and the War Depart
ment is extending to them a willing
hand to help them And unemployment
as soon as they change from khaki
into multi.
The e-employment section of the
War Department has at its disposition
carefully prepared data about the alb
sorpuon possibilities Of each commu
nifty, and 1t takes great care not to per
nit the labor market to become glut
ted. There is at present some reason
for the existing unemployment: the
uncertainty Of money vaiue OF the for
eign markets, the transition from
war basis to a peace basis and Other
reasons resulting from the above Civ
en- reasons. But Colonel Woods points
out that as soon as the industries ge
into their stride the. four hundret
thousand men discharged MONTH,
from the army will hardly be sufh
cient to cope with the demand for la

II they succeed in capturing the muSi-
cal worlo, il will be due to the lack
of forethourht. and lack of considera-
ton by our own congress.
A New York newspaper has started
the actors and actresses on n discus
sion of the purely theoretical ques-
ton Of whether one must feel a
role in order to properly and effec-
lively project the character on the
stage. The true artist one wise
editorial writer declares. need not
feel what she is depicting. To feel
II would imply that she was unable
TO conceive it. and that means lack
of understanding. and, naturally. this
impose the insurmountable handicap
OF the true meaning of the art. that
is. OF acting. as distinct from living
the emotion"
And white the members OF The pro-
fessltn are waiting tn see what is
going TO happen while the theatrical
rrodicing managers on one side and
the members of the acting craft on
the other are on opposite sides OF the
street making faces at each other. the
question has been given a favored
place in public discussion.
10 act means 10 Ce apie TO put
one's-self in the place of another,
and to act as that person would act"
Justly observes Ethel Valentine. Miss
Valentine is herself a success in this
art and We may safely take her judy
me1t. THE depth OF acting Is meas
ured by the ability OF the actress to
fee, the ensotions she is depicting,
and To likewise impress this emotion
upon the audience There is az much
difference between acting as there is

one else. and sounding though they
belonged to someone else"
