IS HISTORIC SPOT

In a London street, 100 yards long
ing to ten yards, there is a house that
presents NO attractions to the eye
a commonplace Of the brown brick
construction Of 300 years ago, dull and
darkened by time, as all old London
houses are. With its funny-loOking
lions head knocker. its old-fashioned
street door and %antiquated windows,
brick-faced, sunken area and crum-
bling ratings, it is indeed a belated
survivor. Transferred to LOndOn's
suburbs and Invested of its fame, it
might fetch $3.50 a year, not more.
Yet, says the Boston Transcript,
this house is unique among all the
houses in the wOrld-it has no rival
because for 200 years history and
many Of history's important decisions
have been made there, and it will con-
tinue to be made there. This house
is No. 10 Downing street.
1t is the official residence of the pre-.
mier for the time being. The brass
plate on the door announces 1.-THE
First Lord of the Treasury" 1t has
done so since Sir Robert Walpole first
entered No. 1O-as that oficial-No-
vember 10, 1875. Since Walpole's ten
ancy so premiers have occupied No.

senting the pinnacle Of British power.
No. 10 has it's offices and it's cele-
hrotod cabinet roOnn IN tho fret Aoor.
above are the private rooms of the
premier. The garden surrounds the
back of the house and is high walled
on the Horse Guards parade side Of
st. James park, to which there Is
access by a gate, of which the premier
has the key.
The cabinet room is q handsome one,
well lighted by double-frame windows.
There are four pillars with flOriated
capitals painted white. In the center
Of the room is the famous long table
covered with green cloth, and on it
always a goodly collection Of mate
rial from the stationery Office. There
is a fine assemblage of stout mahogany
chairs with dark green leather seats.
The central chair near the fireplace is
for the premier. The reception room
on the first floor is sometimes used for
the cabinet as more convenient.
At No. 10 were devised the policies
that led to the American Revolution,
to the War Of 1872. But not always
was the resident power at No. 10 hos
tile to America. When William Pitt
occupied 1t he bitterly denounced the
employment by British authorities of
Indians to massacre and murder
Americans.
And 1t was also a Pitt In another
period, Lord Chatham, who, going
from No. 10 to the house of lords and
in his accustomed place, swathed in
%f1annels, grooming inwardly with pain,
holding stoutly to his crutch, declared,
while exhibiting intense excitement i:
"You may ravage, but you cannot con-
quer. 1t is impossible. You cannot,
1 say, conquer the Americans. I might
as well talk of driving them before me
with this crutch."

DAMAGE DONE BY LEAF MITE
Because of Protection Afforded In
Summer Pests Must Be Destroyed
During Winter.

There have been many Inquiries
concerning damage done by the pear
leaf blister mite. This Is a minute
mite that burrows into the tissues OF
the leaf and rapidly multiplies there
The first signs of Its presence are
small purplish or greenlsh biisters'
which Increase In size and numbers
as the weather gets warmer. After
the young mites mature they emerse
from the blister and form new ones on
the same leaf or on others. Later, II
the mites are very abundant the
leaves turn brown and drop off pre-
matureiy. In severe infestations trees
are often nearly defoliated before mid
summer. Because the mites are pro-
tected by being under the surface OF
the leaf, spraying during the summer
will have no effect on them. The
mites winter over under the bud
scales and can be destroyed by a dor
mant spray any time after the leaves
fall until the tips of the new leaves
show In the spring. Lime sulphur Is
most effective. but oil spray will con-
troll It. One spray every two or three
years will keep the pest In check.
