MUST SPRAY To
SAVE ORCHARDS
University Expert Says Farmers
Must Take Time for Process or
Face Heavy Fruit losses.

Declaring IL unfortunately is
true that most farmers take the at
fitude that there is not time enough
to spray" Professor w. 8. Brock
of the department Of horticulture
of the University of Illinois said in
q statement today that "as a result
the farm orchard is rapidly dis
appearing of the face OF the earth
Fruit trees must be sprayed not
only to produce fruit but In order
to live" the statement said.
Extension workers from the uni
versity agricultural college have
decided that cooperation in spray
ing IS the best solution OF the farm
orchard problem, because 1t per-
mits the use of a gasoline driven
outfit without which so many lose
enthusiasm long before the season
is over. A power outfit makes pos
sible extremely rapid spraying. In
the corn belt this is an absolute es-
sential, because in corn planting
time or in wheat harvest quick
work is necessary if spraying and
farm operations are to be carried
on at the same time.
-Four communities in two 1lli-
nois counties tried the spray ring
method in the season Of 1921 with
entire satisfaction. The cost of
spraying each tree ranged from 81
cents to $1.25, depending upon the
location of the orchard. water sup
ply and weather conditions. This
sum included labor, materials and
depreciation on equipment.
zone of the most significant
things about this movement, how
ever, is the amount of money made
or saved in q given season, but the
fact that trees thus sprayed are
saved from the ravages of scale
and so enabled to produce many
larger and better crops in the fu-
ture. The initial crop following
many barren years due to disease,
insects and neglect is usually light.
The farmer must spray singly or
comparatively if he is to have good
fruit for home consumption"

REMINDER OF MIDDLE AGES
English Clergyman Likely Will Have
to Stand Trial on the Charge
of Heresy.

Charges of heresy-with the possi-
bility that England will have an &C.
clesiastical trial such as it has not
known since the Middle ages-have
been filed against the Rev. II. d. A.
Major, principal of Ripon hall, theo-
logical institute in Oxford, by the Rev.
c. E. Douglas. Further action rests
with the bishop of Oxford, with whom
the charges have been placed
The action grew out Of an article
by the Rev. Mr.. Major, in which he
said that the resurrection of Christ
was a spiritual but not a physical
happening. The Rev. Mr.. Douglas
charges him with publishing doctrine
contrary to the teachings of creeds
and Of holy scripture" and also "of
importing into the Christian religion
the teachings of the eastern mystic,
Buddha."
The Rev. Mr.. Major holds no ben
etice, SO the case can not, be tried
through the bishops court. The pro-
cedure which must be followed is the
old procedure by inquisition." Under
this the bishop having received the
information appoints "an inquisition
of priests" to hear testimony.
The Rev. Mr.. Major, since the filing
of the charges, has announced he will
defend his position.

VICTORY FOR
CLOSED SHOP
Boston Builders Sign Long Term
Agreement With Building
Trades Unions.
END OF LONG CONTROVERSY
Practically All Demands Originally
Made by the Workers Are
Granted, Including Forty-Hour
Week Where 1t Is Wished,

Working contracts in five of the
crafts of the building trades and a
board agreement for Cancellation and
cooperation covering 27,0OO skilled
and unskilled workmen in Boston have
been signed
This ends the "open shop" conditions
in the building trades effective since
January, 1921, when the employers
broke off relations with the unions
after a protracted strike.
The agreement runs to April 1, 1928,
and if neither side gives notice to the
other on or before January l that it
desires change it will continue in
effect for another year. The standard
craft wage is to be 81 an hour, but
agreements may be made between
craftsmen and employers in some lines
to pay as high as $1.121a.
The question of compensation for
overtime and whether the week shall
be one of 10 or "A hours are left to
the individual crafts to settle with
their employers. The understanding
is that the employers are inclined to
agree with the 40-hour week where it
is wished, but that most of the crafts
are agreeable to working A hours.
The basic compensation for over
time is time and a half, but where
there is no agreement on this the en-
ployers will take the question up for
adjudication with the crafts repre-
sentatives.
