loupe was introduced into Pennsylvania
from France in the late seventies. Mr.. ].
E. Gauger, now of Swink, Colorado, in
troduced it in the early eighties into
Colorado, and from the seed was built up
the famous Rocky Ford strain of the
Melted Gem. Some years ago very fine
melon, called the Casaba, was introduced
from Syria into California by the same
person who introduced the Melted Gem
into Pennsylvania. Later Mi. Gauger
secured the seed from an African melon
and made series of crosses with the
Casaba and Rocky Ford varieties and
produced the now famous Honey Dew
melon.
This promising new variety produces at
the rate of from 5000 to 10000 melons
per acre. 1t is very nutritious, as it
carries as high as ten per cent of sugar.
Growers of cantaloupes often become
discouraged when crops are attacked with
the cantaloupe worm. This worm attacks
the melon about the time they reach ma
trrity, and bore them full of holes. 1t is
the same insect that attacks and plays
havoc with the squash and cucumbers.
Proper spraying with arsenate of lead
solution one and half pounds to fifty
gallons of water, has proven very effec-
tive in killing this dreaded insect pest.
Usually, insect enemies attacking crops
are looked upon with too much seriousness,
for the greatest pleasure in life is the
triumph over seemingly unsurmountable
difficulties. That cantaloupes, as well as
other crops have insects and fungus pests
that destroy them, only makes the grower
more watchful and careful in growing
and attending to his crop, and it finally
also develops the intellect of the person
who chooses too grow them into tool OF
which the owner may we'll be proud.-Ex.

THE DEODAR TREE

In the hill regions of India the Hindus
consider the doedar tree, familiar to
Western readers through Kipling's use of
the name, as almost sacred, says the Field.
As its name implies, it is the tree of the
gods, and round many of the picturesque
little temples you see magnificent groves
of fine old deodars, perhaps eight or nine
hundred years old-trees that no one
would dream of cutting, for they are con-
sidered as the personal property of the gods
Even should deodar fall down from
old age no hillman would dare to use its
timber for his own private needs. Mis-
fortune, as he believes, would certainly
result. If house were built of the sacred
timber either the house would refuse to
stand. or-what is the more usual form of
the gods displeasure-the owners family
would fall victims to some terrible disease,
or his crops would fail to ripen. A hill
man who has had to pass through one of
theese groves will carefully remove even
the dry needles that have stuck to his feet,
for fear that he may arouse the gods dis
pleasure by inadvertently removing some
of his property. Other deodar trees, often
in the middle of the forest are looked
upon as the abodes of tree spirits, and the
forest officer, when marking feelings, will
often be asked to spare tree in which
spirit is thought to exist.
This semisacred character of the doedar
has its advantages, for it saves it from
much of the i'll treatment to which most OF
the forest trees are subject; it is fortunate
for the forester that it is his most valuable
tree that is thus respected. Deodar timber
serves variety of purposes. Being free
from the attacks of white ants, it is in
much demand by the railways for sleepers
and also by the people of the plains for
housebuilding-Ex.

However, by the management making
diligent use of the telephone they sue
ceeded in getting together bunch of
young athletic sports from South Still
water who were the central attraction of
the day for the local fans. Their ap-
pearance on the field in civilian clothing
did not give them very promising ap-
pearance but the work they accomplished
was highly complimented by all. The
visitors put up noble fight for the honors
of the day but when the game was called
at the end of the sixth frame the score
stood 4 to 0.
The game developed right off the start
in a pitchers battle and thus it continued
throughout the game. Alvin, who was on
the mound for the visitors, allowed only
FIVE hits but on account of allowing them
to come in punched form in the last
frame, the locals were allowed to increase
their lead by large margin. He had
strikeout record of eight men, something
that is very seldom accomplished by more
seasoned pitchers.
VOL, who was on the mound for the
locals, allowed a total of seven hits, and
two of them were for extra bases, but on
account of keeping them well scattered he
was able to register "a shut-out.
