Arnold, of Atlantic City, while on his way to Philadelphia, in His auto- ' mobile, found a package, on the Wildwood Road, addressed to the Star and Wave. Mr. Arnold was thoughtful and ' considerate enough to 'come all the wax, to Cape May to deliver the package to ■f^ts rightful owner. This act of kindness " on the part of Mr. Arnold is greatly ap- ' predated by the Star and Wave, as The package was of importance. ' Miss Marguerite King, a noted soprano of Philadelphia, sang in the Preabyter- ' ian church on Sunday morning. She sang the "Xinety aud'Xine" and a sel- - ection from the cantata of "Jairus Daughter."

Mr. Potter is showing the boys a fine time, and while looking out | for their welfare, he gives the boys | plenty of freedom to go and come as , they choose. Upon their arival here the , boys deposited their spending money - with Mr. Potter, and it is not an in- \ frequent occurrence for a half doren s boys to make a demand on the bank at one time, for nickels and dimes. Xo < cheeks are required, and the money is al- | ways forthcoming. Both Mr. Potter , and the boys arc delighted' with Cape , May, and Mr. Potter things that Miss , A. C Knight has an excellent opportunity to benefit Cape May and to.im- ] mortalize herself, by improving Congress Hal] and the beautiful plot of ground | surrounding it, by transforming it into | a hotel to compare with the Travmore , of Atlantic City or the Biltmore of Xew York. Mr. Potter also thought it would be a fine plan to tear down the old building erect on the plot a casino, a , "real casino," said Mr. Potter. , A sailing and crabbing party gitfen jointly by Mrs. A. C. Voris and Miss Helen Plumly, guests of the Windsor, to the young folks of that house, proved to be very successful and pleasurable have gone. The party left the hotel How's This ?

BROWN ROT AND PEACH SCAB BROWN R«»l — Pw&bly no other disease is so destructive to peaches, plums and cherries as is the brown" rot, which attacks the fruits as they approach maturity, turning them brown, sof{ and useless. Aside from injuring-the mature I fruit, it attacks the flowers and twigs. ' The disease ranges over the entire peach- . growing territory, and in some years the loss has amounted to 50 per cent of I the crop or more. # Its characteristic appearance on the r fruit enables one to recognize it easily. It first appears as small, circular, brown j decayed spots. These rapidly enlarge until they embrace the whole fruit, which at the same time shrinks slightly. As the decay advances, small tufts of • brown threads appear near the center t of the original spots, and spread rapid1 ly until the whole fruit la covered with : them. i If the fruit hangs in clusters, adjacent t fruits begin to decay at the points of i contact, and the .disease spreads from I fruit to fruit until the whole clusters are i lost. Frutt, after it is picked, may also s succumb to attack, and peaches that were apparently sound at picking may be seriously damaged when they reach the market. ' Thus, the loss falls upon the grower, dealer, consumer. The decay is 1 so rapid that infection today may mean '* a totally .unsalable peach two days hence. Peaches diseased on the tree may • fall to the ground, or remain on the • tree, where they' will shrivel and hang " over winter to constitute the "mummy" ' peaches bo familiar in infected orchards As a combined treatment of peach b scab and brown rot, at least three ap- " plications of the self-boiled lime-sul-phur are necessary. QfAB— This disease, which Is widespread and so common that many peo-

ple regard it as an integral part of the pearii, may consist of isolated, sooty, black specks, or of black specks so numerous as to coalesce into large blotches. ' These sometimes cover |a» much as one , third or one half of the peaph. The side which is attacked is dwarfed, often cracked, and the flesh adjacent to the diseased parts is bitter and green, even after the normal portions arc ripe. J The disease develops in most serious form during rainy seasons, and is worse upon some varieties than upon others. ' To illustrate the value and effectiveness in spraying peaches with selfboiled lime-sulphur for the control of peach scab and brown rot we urge as ' many as are interested to visit the j orchards of Clinton Cresse, Mayville. r Mr. Crease has made three applications with self-boiled lime-sulphur un- ( der the directions of the writer and has also thinned his fruit in order to grow large, clean, peaches which will command j good prices upon the market this seaj son when small, diseased peaches will be hard to dispose of at any price. GEORGE B. THRASHER, County Farm Demonstrator.
