March ID from the Office of County
Agent Wilson, and other editions
will be issued at timely intervals
throughout the coming spring and
summer months. An effort has
been made each year to Include
every fruit grower in this spray
service, so those growers who have
not been receiving these spray
notes in the past are requested to
notify the county extension office
if they desire to have their names
placed on the mailing list to re-
ceive this information. Along
with these spray notes Director c.
A. McCue of the University of Del
aware has offered some sugges-
lions and recommendation regard
ing the treatment of winter injured
peach trees in which he stated
that the best treatment in such
cases is to prune moderately, fer
tilize well, and exercise good man
agement during the following
growing season. Although there
are no prospects for a commercial
crop Of peaches this year, growers
are advised to spray their trees for
the control Of leaf-curl, terrapin
scale and red mite in order to pre-
vent the trees from becoming
weakened for the production of a
crop of fruit next year. For leaf
curl only the commercial lime sui
phur is being recommended, and in
those peach orchards which are in
tested with either the terrapin
scale or the red mite in addition to
an infection of leaf-curl it is being
advised that an oil spray with
Bordeaux mixture be applied be-
fore the buds start to swell.

AS we are nearing the anniver-
sary of the death and resurrection
of our Lord our thoughts are ma
turally filled with the great force
which caused and directed that
greatest of events in the history of
the world-the Love of God. The
cross declares, in letters that can
be read from the stars, Gods love
to man. We can understand in a
small way, love which would
strengthen one to such an extent
that he would sacrifice his life for
his best friend; but a love which
would cause one to sacrifice him
self for his enemies is beyond hui
man comprehension, and can only
be marvelled at. AS we celebrate

ton to william Randolph Hearst

Of people we love-"
Thus Lucy Rankin, third grade

II the postal authorities would
have . big job of it transporting

are writing Mr.. Hearst to tell him
that they understood all about
the tree and why it's being
planted in his honor, but every
line will be delivered to the pub
l1Sher'S ranch at San Simeon,

cation, and we know the ele-
mentary and high schools feel
indebted to you. You have given
inspiration to hundreds Of peO-
pie to take up the fight for pub

Citizens Of the United States
ate more victualS last year than

from the Department Of Agricul-

of meat increased from 98.9
pounds .in 1882 to 1894 in 1888.
Production of meat was also

ant Bearing on AppIica-
ton for PWA Fund

Washington, July 13.-(P)-Presi-
dent Roosevelt is expected to make a
first-hand study OF North Dakota's
diminishing water supply when he
stops at Devils Lake on Aug. Z en-
route home from his trip to Hawaii.
The president and various depart
ment heads have given audiences to
members of congress and special
delegations from the west urging fed
eral assistance in controlling water
supplies in an area they contend is
fast becoming the great American
desert" This will be Roosevelt,s first
opportunity to make a personal OBJ
servation tour Of this section Of the
drouth region.
The White House announcement of
the presidents itinerary made no
comment on the stop at Devils Lake
other than to say the president would
take an automobile trip through the
area to study subsistence Of water
levels" Observers here, however,
viewed the choice Of Devils Lake as
significant inasmuch as that region
IS the most vitality concerned in the
state over successful elimination of
the Missouri river diversion project.
Application Is pending before the
public works administration for q
$65, 900 grant with which to di-
vert waters Of the Missouri through
Devils Lake and thence into the
James river by means OF q dam at
Garrison and series Of reservoirs.
The president will doubtless hear
full discussion of the merits Of the
project.

Special Session to
Cost $1,000 Per Day

Cost Of the special legislative
session called for July 10 will prob
ably be somewhere between $815
and $1,000 q day, depending on
matters taken up and incidental
costs.
The salary roll for legislators
alone probably will be $795 day
and minimum of two clerks each
for the house and senate will bring
this figure to $8l5 at the going
rate of IS a day.
Any additional clerks or en-
ployees will mean added cost and
if attorneys are hired to conduct
Investigations the outlay required
will jump sharply, fees paid for
such services ranging from SIS to
$50 q day. depending upon the
length and nature of the employ
ment.
The biggest single expenditure
which can be forecas: now for tho
coming session will be that Of mil
cage for the 112 house and ~ SEN
ate members expected to attend.
At the last regular session this
item totaled $6,738.5O.
Members of the senate Travelled
q ,443 official miles and house
members 46,942 official miles, 1T
the going rate of 10 cents q mile.
The custom is to pay members mil
cage both ways shortly after the
session opens.
