SAYS ARMENIA HAS NOT GIVEN
 UP TO S0vIETS
Made Peace With Russians As Did Finland and
 Esthonia.

There are about many Bolshev-
 sas, according to Capt. Paxton Hib-
 ben, Field Artillery Reserve Corps,
 who has just returned from Trans
 caucaSia, where he was on duty with
 the American military mission.
 Ninety per cent of the population
 of the Republic of Armenia a1N
 small farmers" Capt. Hihben de-
 clared. 1-They have been defending
 themselves without assistance from anybody for the past two years, first against the Turks then against the Georgians, then against the Tartars of Azerbaidjan. Now the Red Army has invaded Transcaucasia in force and the Armenian Republic has made peace with it, precisely as Finland and Esthonia have made peace with Soviet Russia But it does not mean that Armenia has given up to the Bolsheviki'' or anything like it.
 .'The Armenians have an army of 10000 men, armed with old Russian Lebel rifles. But they have no am- munition with which to fight, as the British during their occupation of Transcaucasia seized all the ammuni- tion stored in the Armenian fortress of Kars and the great military store ii to Russia for the use of the Deniken army. It is now in the hands of the Bolshevists and the SArmenians have
 no ammunition with which to defend | themselves. Naturally they have been forced to make peace on the best terms they could get.
 | ''The Armenian army is equipped
 with American shoes. sold them by | the American military mission in l Transcaucasia,. and fed with flour | furnished by the American Near East 1 Relief. It's officers are Russian | trained, and first class fighting men i But without munitions they can do very little. The same is true of the
 army of the Georgian Republic which l has also made treaty of peace and
 commerce with the Soviet, Govern i ment. Neither Armenians nor Geor-
 gians want union with Russia whetf l. | CT Bolshevist Russia or s'regeneratef' l Russia. Both Armenia and Georgia | have been fighting any such union
 ever since their independence in 1917 The Georgians have been greatly ir- | ritated by the British retention of the Georgia port of Batoum, and their I annQuncement that, England would ! hold Batoum for at least six months [ longer The Soviet government on i the other hand, has recognized Ba- i toun as a part of the Georgian Re 1 public.
 | From all I saw in southeast Rus ] sia I should say that there is no dan ! ger whatever to the American per ! sonne1 of the Near East Relief oper- i ating in Georgia and Armenia and l that the disarmament imposed upon l Georgia and Armenia by the treaty i with the Bolshevists would tend to ] insure peace in Transcaucasia. rather 1 than more fighting"

APPLE SPRAYS.

No fruit grower should expect to harvest good apples with less than three applications of spray materials says s. P. Hollister of Connecticut Agricultura1 College at Storrs. who suggests the following materials:
 Delayed Dormant Spray---when the leaf buds are showing the green tips of the leaves. Use concentrated lime sulphur solution diluted so that the spray mixture tests about 45 de grees Baume. This will require five to six gallons of the solution for ca ch barrel of 50 gallons of spray mixture Add to this 1-2 pint of Black Leaf 40 and 1-2 pounds of powdered Arsen- ate or Lead, or three pounds Of the paste.
 This combination spray will eontroI San Jose Scale and other scale in sects, Aphis and the eating insects.
 Cafyx Spray-Start spraying just $ soon as the petals or blossoms have fallen. Use 1 or l A gallons of Lime Sulphur solution, 1-2 pint of Black Leaf 40 and 1 1-2 pounds of the pow dered Arsenate of Lead or it's euuiya- ent of the paste.
 The Black Leaf 40 is to control the False Red Bug and any Aphis which were not killed before. The poison is for the Cooling Moth.
 Mid-Season Spray-Ab out the first of July spray again, using the same materials except that the. Black Lear 40 may be omitted if there are no Aphis present. This spray will help contro1 the later brood of Cooling Moth and also act as a check for the Sooty Blotch disease.
 It is a good plan to add a pound of lime,. which has previously been slacked in water, to each barrel of 50 gallons Of spray material
 Some growers will find it more con venient to use Bordeaux mixture for second and third sprayings than the Lime Sulphur. It may be used al though sometimes it causes more rus setting of the fruit than. does the other material -tSca1ecSaee may be used alone forsfhe-D Delayed Dormant SQrzN

HIS ADVICE.

No doubt Jenkins married Lobe1la Genoff for love. At any rate, beauty can't have had anything to do with it. Her face would have ripened a cheese or stopped a train. One day, soon after his marriage, Jenkins met a pal, and timidly asked him what he thought of Lobe1ia-
 Help! Don't ask mel" gasped the pal.
 Beauty is only skin deep, you know!'' demonstrated Jenkins, stiff 1y.
 Skin Ter, then, dear chap" ad- vised the pal. t'For heavens sake skin 'er!'
