TARIFF AND LIVING COSTS

Prices Of the necessities of life
advanced IL per cent in the last
year, the Federal department of
labor announces. Business men
do not regard the upward trend,
which apparently is just finding
its stride, as a good omen for
future prosperity. No one has
forgotten how prosperity bursts
when inflated too far by the vic
ious circle that keeps prices and
wages higher and higher.
The new Republican tariff law,
which made a high increase in
rates for practically everything
on the dutiable list, naturally is
given as one of the explanations
of the general advance in the cost
of living. 1t is pointed out that
il a protective tariff did not keep
up or advance pricesit would not
justify its name. The opponents
of INTERCHANGEABLE bill
referred to Il as another Tariff
of denominations" and declared
that, it would prove one of the
most Ioppressive in the history of
the eountry. They point out that
the increasing prices now only
bear out what they said when
the measure was before Coli
gresS. l'
The fact that the cost of livi
ing started to rise with the GO
ing into effect of the new tariff
law proves that the latter is one
of the major causes of the adj
vance.

THE GLADSTONE SEASON

When 4 warm sun shines in
April young and old are of one
mind, and the desire to get out
doors is universal. While the
call may differ widely. it is to
the open air. To the farmer it
says to plow and get ready to put
i'll the crops. To the suburban
lite it may mean cleaning off the
garden patch. To others it spells
golf, and to the schoolboy the
background beckons.
When it is pleasant to be out
doors we feel that it is good to
be alive. A warm sun compen-
safes for a lot OF cold and stormy
days. In fact, the winter enables
us to appreciate the change. Did
we have an equable climate. were
the weather always pleasant, we
might weary of the monotony.
A measure of frost is good for
us; it quickens us and makes us
prize the more the opposite when
ii comes. =
In modern life there is so much
artihciality that we might forget
how primitive man lived did not
the Spring urge remind us that
we have not outgrown entirely
the delight with which he well
coined the return of the sun so
that he might emerge from his
cave or cease from shivering in
the forests. Ne have overcome
many OF the unpleasant features
of life a few thousand years
ago, but it may be that the iov
with which we welcome the pass
ing of winter is a resurgence OF
the similar feeling that beat in
the breast of the cave-man OF
long ago. He could be warm
again without effort and WAS
glad.
In this age, while we may
greet the return of the sun for
different reason, we are glad,
too.

Over a thousand new homes have

be confessed that the new buildings,
quickly got together with bricks and
mortar, have an incongruous look be-
side what remains Of the grey stone Of
the Cloth hall. Workmen are busy on
Its outer walls, and the ruins are al
ready taking shape again. The Bel

prepared By the United states Department
OF A6rtoulture.)
The increase Of the San Jose scale
during the last two years In the Ozark
region Of Arkansas has seriously
threatened the apple industry in sew
eral localities. Steps have been taken
by entomologists of the United States
Department Of Agriculture to find an
effective means Of control for this
pest. OF ap the insecticides tried In
various experiments at Bentonville,
Ark, best results were obtained with
the so-ca,led paraffln-oil or lubricating-
oil emulsion. Department Circular
26S, preliminary Report on Control of
San Jose Scale With Lubricating- OIL
Emulsion" by 4. J. Alderman, ento-
mologist, discusses the history and Sc
riousness of the infestation, and de-
scribes the proper way to prepare and
apply oil emulsions.
Csrelsssnsss Chief Cause.
Unintentional carelessness In spray
methods on the part Of growers Is no
doubt the chief cause Of the present
widespread. infestation. Unfavorable
weather for spraying during the dor
msnt period has also been q factor In
scale increase. Lack of parasites and
predacious enemies is another expla-
nation Of the rapid spread Of the pest.
Spray In Dormant Season.
The department recommends thor
oueh spraying In the dormant season,
during favorable weather, with an
emulsion containing per cent Of oil.
Two dormant sprays should be made
In badly infested orchards. No indi-
cation Of injury to trees from the use
Of the spray Recommended has been
observed In Arkansas. Soft water
must be used In making the emulsion.
Applications made during the growing
season only result In partial check
Ing Of the scale. They should be made
during the cool part OF the day or
injury to fruit and foliage will result.
Very thorough spraying work should
always be done to insure reaching all
parts Of the trees, particularly the tips
of the branches.

Little but Precious.

Many families have got christening
robes treasured away In some old
press or chest or trunk. Some old
English families have robes which
have historical interest. Earl Fitz-
william has. for instance, gauze scarf,
which is attached to the robe Of the
infant at christening 1t is reputed
to have been owned by William the
Conqueror, and to have been given by
him to an ancestor of the Fitzwilliams
after the battle of Hastings. Lord
Clanwllliam's family also owns the
robe worn by the duke Of Kent, Queen
Victoria's father, at his christening,
II having been given to the lady who
held the royal baby, and to have
passed later into the possession Of
Lord Clanwilliam's ancestors. Now
Princess Mary will put away another
addition to the store of treasured
relics of infancy.
