Frauds are being perpetrated In sevtTal parts of the state by men who give as their ref erences the names of professor of the state agricultural college, without authority. One claims preposterous things in the way of curing apple trees of anthracknoae1 and, protecting them from the codling moth by applying chemicals to the roots. Another if. offering a premium with subscriptions to a paper, which'turns out to be a fake. Dean A. B, Cordley of the agricul tural Bchool has received a litter from a farmer near Toulitln, asking if he gave his endorsement to such men. The letter says: "';" ."A man named Saundcr claims to have a treatment whereby he renders trees Immune from diseases by the ap plication of ,oms "chemicals to "the roots especially apple trees. He claims that they will be cured of anthrack nose, an 4 that the codling moth will not bother "eucli trees for Bix years, and that no 'saVing Is required on treated treesj'iir. Saunders gave me the name of Professor Cordley as ref erence, so ! ask the college to give me Its opinion. I regard this fellow -as a fraud, pure and simple, and In order to protect my neighbors from his op erations I have written to the col lege." , . ; ' "I know nothing whatever of hlmj' Dean Cordley replied, "and if I should give my testimony in the case, It prob ably would be to the efefct that any man who claims to be able to render trees Immune from the, attacks of the codling moth, anthracknose, and the other fungos disease by an applica tion nt onrtAln chemicals to the roots of trees, is a fraud." Another letter from Lebanon states that a young man claiming to be con nected with the college is' taking sub scriptions for a paper and offering a premium, which turned out later to be a fraud. Dean Cordley has issued a statement that there is no such- per son connected with the institution, and that he is evidently trading upon the popularity of the college to make a smooth way for his fraud.
