AGRICULTURAL NOTES
Spray for Blotch Paid Big This
Year.

A summary of the apple blotch
control demonstrations this year
in Clermont, Scioto, Lawrence,
Hamilton and Warren counties
show that where blotched trees
were sprayed, 80 per cent OF the
fruit was free from blemish and
the remaining 10 per cent
was marketable. On rmsprayed
blotched trees 80 per cent of the
fruit was blotched so badly that it
was unmarketable.
On the average, the cost OF
spraying per tree was from 30 to
90 cents including the sprays for
codling moth. -Four sprays were
applied, two, four, six, and ten
weeks after the petal-fall. The
second and ten-weeks spray was
for codling moth and contained
l1a pounds of powdered arsenate
of lead, in addition to the regular
spray which consisted Of three
pounds of blue stone, five pounds
of hydrated lime, and so gallons
OF water.
An example of the difference in
yield between the sprayed and the
unsprayed fruit may be noted on
two Smith, Cider trees in southern
Ohio. The unsprayed> tree yielded
two bushels of apples worth 81 a
oushel. The other tree yielded 13
bushels of apples worth $3.50 a
oushel. The difference between So
and $3.50 paid handsome profits
or spraying.
This work was done cooper
.tively with the orchardists by the
county farm bureaus, the Ohio
,tate University, and the United
,tates Department of Agriculture.
file Drainage Paying Even at
High Prices.
In spite of the present high
prices of tile and labor, money in
vested in tile drainage is paying
bigger returns than ever before,
according to agricultural engi-
neering specialties of the Ohio
State University. In time of nor
nal prices 4-inch tile were costing
about $1S per thousand. Now
they cost $4,000 or an increase OF
o6 per cent. Likewise the cost o,
iigging the trench was about 25
cents per rod. Now it is about 40
cents, or an increase of 60 per
cent.
On the other hand, the prices of
the principal farm products such
as wheat, corn, oats, and hogs have
increased fully 100 per cent, or 30
20 40 per cent more than the in
crease in the cost of drainage.

When Grandfather Came

The coming of the Prince to the
United States recalls the triumphal
5our of his grandfather, the late
King Edward, in 1890. Travelling
lncognito as Baron Renfrew, he
came over in the Hero. He was
only eighteen years Of age at the
time. While the present prince
came in warship, his grandfather
arrived in a sailing ship and was
greeted by Micmac Indians sailing
down to Halifax in a long line of
birch bark canoes. He was welcomed
to this country with great enthu-
siasm. He visited Detroit, Chicago,
St. Louis, Cincinnati, Pittsburgh,
Baltimore, Washington and New
York. James Buchanan was Presi-
dent at the time. Baron Renfrew
spent month in the States alto
gether. In Detroit he had to slip in
ond out Of side doors, so packed were
the streets. In Chicago $4,000 people
turned out to see him. He was so
exhausted with the vigor of his tour
that on his way to St. Louis he had
temporary nervous breakdown.
He stopped off at Dwight and did
some shooting. He managed to bag
q quantity of quail and rabbits.
From st. Louis he went to Cincin-
natl, where he attended a great ball
While in the capital he visited the
tomb Of Washington at Mount Yer
non. From there he proceeded to
Baltimore and then to Philadelphia,
where he heard Adelina Patti sing.
He reached New York on October
II. Fernando Wood was Mayor at
the time He was met at Castle
Garden by the 18th Regiment. He
drove to his quarters in the Fifth
Avenue Hotel through a crowd of
100000 persons. Then cnsued
strenuous period during which he
visited New York University, the
Astor Library, Cooper Union, Cen
tral Park-where he planted an oak
tree-and the Deaf and Dumb Asy-
lum. The climax of his visit was
reached in the ball given at the
Academy Of Music. On the next

He was forever being squelched

was such that Sir Douglas Haig is

1t was at the front that Edward
first made his mark and got the men
Of the British -dominions talking
about him. Canadian soldiers re-
turned home, full of stories of his
pluck and camaraderie. Hundreds
Of the returned men who cheered
him during his tour through Canada
had personal recollection of him at
The front. When a shell fell beside
him at the Battle Of Loos and a
staff officer told him to get out of
the way, he remarked quite casual

|. His coming to this continent on
an extended tour has given the
people Of Canada a very intimate
knowledge of their future King and
has won for him solid place in
their affections. People turned out
to see him, mildly curious. But the
boy literally walked into their
hearts, quite naturally and without
even trying to get there. Our
Lady of the Shows was reused to a
pitch of enthusiasm unequaled since
the visit of his grandfather. He
was just himself, and that was
enough. 1t didn't matter that he
was a prince and their future ruler.
He smiled-and did the trick.

Slight Accidents

When Wales entered the band

Hail Columbia" The floor had
been boarded over for dancing, but
The crush Of people was too much
for the supports, and the boards
sagged three times, two persons
falling into the cavity and being
slightly hurt. The police roped off
the hole and carpenters set to work
to repair the damage. The flower
vases fell from one of the tiers,
but fortunately hit no one.
The following skit was written on
the accident at the time:

celed banquets and balls because he
wanted to go out and meet the
people and shake hands with every
one. He rode on the hood of his
car on some occasions and was near
ly dragged off his horse in others;
so wild was the rush to see him.
When child threw him a grimy
little flag or bedraggled flower, he
carried it around as if it were the
only thing he wanted to possess in
the world. If an old woman could
not get near enough to shake hands
with him, he jumped out of his car
and went straight to her. What
surprised good many people was
that they left him whole. At the To-
ronto Exhibition there was momen-
tary panic when his horse was
wedged in with close pack Of hu-
man beings. In the Canadian Mid.
die West he had actually to stop
shaking hands, for he developed
neuritis in his arm from being greet.
cd by thousands of husky Canadians.
He has worn a uniform most Of
the time since landing in America.
When he gets into "civvies" he has
weakness for turned down collars
and soft shirts. He likes gay socks,
ard his favorite attire is a knicker-
booker suit with soft collar and
'hirt. He has one of his grand
ather's pronounced hobbies-col-
Getting walking sticks. Already he
owns about fifty Of varying shapes
and sizes.
