FARil DEMONSTRATION u NOTES P Those of us who have any apple t and pear -trees in our orchards, j, have noticed the blighted condition a on the,tips of the shoots; also that j the fruit spurs on certain varieties r have been injured sufficiently to cause the complete loss of the f crop. In parts of this county this ] condition was first noticed on trees : having l>een sprayed with five r quarts of concentrated lime sul- j phur and two and oue half pounds s of arsenate of lead to fifty gallons t #of water, just a few days before t the blighted condition was noticed, i Several farmers who are apt to j jump at conclusions, immediately r called the existing conditions , "SPRAY INJURY" condemning the practice of spraying fruit trees. Had they examined their own trees where spraying had nev- < er been practiced ; seeing the same conditions which were prevalent; they would have shown better judgment in discussing the cause * and nature of the injury. This disease is known as "FIRE BLIGHT" and is one of the most s serious diseases of the pome fruits, i both because it injures the trees so severely and because the methods 1 of eradicating it are so expensive. ' It attacks pears, apples and j . quinces, as well as many allied plants, such as -mountain ash, haw-) 1 thorns and < r I apples. The di- 1 ' sease is most noti. cable where it I' attacks the tips of vigorously j ' growing shoots. Here it works!] vejy rapidly, killing both the i leaves and twigs and causing them j < to turn brown and . eventual- j ' ly nearly black, especially ou the j pear. It will ata». on the bearing , trees, attack l.: 'mi: 'spurs, where t it does more * rious, though less ; spectacular, d.-uv ac. because new > terminal shoots are easily grown. 1 hut new spurs are grown with f—eat difficulty. By following down , the spur or twig the disease fre- , quentlv becomes established on the i main branches or even the trunk. < . where it prodm-os what is popu- ' larlv known - "liody blight." ! 1 THE CAUSE— The disease is j caused by a bacterium which works jn the tender parts of the < twig, largely in the cambium lay- 1 : er, and during the actively grow- : ing stage the organisms may he j ; found some distance below where . there is any outward sign of the j ( p disease. It winters over in the old. ; ' diseased tissues aud is spread in ; the spring to the growing shoots. I largely through the instrumental- j . iiy of insects. particularly l»ees. ; Bearing apple trees may ta soften j seen with one-quarter of the fruit I spurs dead, and in every spur the | ' infestation came through the bios- i soms. doubtless having been ear- 1 ried by the bees in tlieic visits to ' the blossoms. THE REMEDY— The disease cannot lie influenced by spraying. The only satisfactory remedy is to cut out the diseased parts, and the

best time to do this is in the aut- > unui. If all the diseased areas can be cut out and burned during the dormant season there will he no ( outbreak in the spring. Of course 1 this cannot be done, hut systematic 1 effort will go a long ways towards ] it. If the work can l>e done in the autumn before the leaves falK so much the better, as the affected < areas are more easily located then. The diseased shoots should also be cut during the growing season, though this is a less efficient time than the other. Great-care should he tak"R to get well below the diseased portion in this cutting so as OLDER BUT STRONGER To be healthy at seventy, prepare at forty, is sound advice, because in the strength of middle life we too often forget that neglected colds, or careless treatment of slight aches and pains, simply nodennine strength and bring chronic weakness for later years. To be stronger when older, keep your blood pore and rich and active with the strengtb-boilding and blood-nourishing properties of Scott's Bmnlsion which isa food, a tonic and a medicine to keep yonr blood rich, alleviate rheumatism and avoid sickness. NO alcohoi in Scott's.

be sure that all the bacteria ar» removed. The shears or knife with which , the cutting is done should be disinfected after every cat to prevent, any germs being carried to healthy f tissue: otherwise this cutting mr.v < really spread the disease from 1 branch to branch. For this disin- ' a solution of corrosive sub- ( is used (l'part to 1000). ] A cloth or sponge dipped in this i be used to wipe the shears, or I may be carried in a can and the ( shears dipped into it. In the win- ( ter work all affected parts- which , cut out should be gathered and i Tliis is not so important ' summer work, since the Darts removed are so soft and soon dry up and kill the bacteria.

Jersey Agricultural Experiment Station conducted a series of experiments along this line last spring. Ten flocks of White Leghorns containing forty-two birds each were used for the experiment, being fed, managed and cared for in a simmanner. Four pens were fed sour skimmilk. four were fed milk soured j by Bulealsctine tablets, a commerjeial acid-producing preparation, land the remaining two pens were jgiven no supplemental milk of any (kind. The following conclusions were drawn at life close of the cxperi-| ! ment : that the sour skim-milk ap- j Ipeared to be very palatable audi termed a comparatively cheap i source of easily available protein j as evidenced by the increased growtn of milk-fed chicks overj chicks not fed milk; that chicks re-* reiving the sour skim-milk consul, h a a larger amount ol mash' and on the average more grain which showed .itself aiso in in- i creased weight; that unevenness; and lack of uniformity in size characterized the two pens not re-: | ceiving the milk; that sour skimImilk led ciiicks appeared brighter, | and healthier than the others! I (throughout the -period; that there was little if any apparent difference between cnick-s given naturally sour skim-milk and those hav-! ling Buigalac'.ine product, al-; i though the Bulgalactiiie product | seemed to foriu a solid curd which' (was a little more dinichlt for thechicks tp get at. and the tailing of j , the latter took considerable time' (also; that there was a lower mor-j jtaiity in the milk fed pens. ; These results were secured by , 'I the New Jersey Experiment Stajtion as a result of one spring's: I I work only. The experiments are ; | being continued during the pres-l , ent season. The whole object of i the experiment was to consider! "| sour-milk from the nutritive sland- ' I point; hence no account was tak- • ' of the effect of the acid of the j milk upon disease germs, pnrtieu-; . larly those of white diarrhoea. — ) STOVES STORED— $1.50. , per season.
