Now is the time to get results in combating , this disease. Cankers, as yet, are not oozing and by removing them before the blos soms open, the danger of a serious outbseak of this pest is greatly re duced. Oozing cankers ordinarly form where a spur or twig has died back to a limb on the mam body oi a tree. However, cankers may form any wfbere on a limb or on any part or the tree. LanKers ordinarily ap pear as sunken places in the bark and usually, crack away from the ihealtihy tissue. Depressed areus in the bark in which tbe inner bark is alive at this time of .the year, would not or dinarily be considered a blight canker. These cankers, when growth starts in the spring, often ooze a sticky fluid. This fluid seems to be attractive to bees arid other insects. After feeding on this substance if they fly to an ap ple or pear blossom they will infect the blossoms and cause what is Known as spur blight. ' If they in any. way injure a leaf or the tip or a growing shute after ha vine visited an oozing canker, these likewise become infect ed. If cankers are oozing and heavy rains occur, the water washing the ooze down the body of the tree will nfect anv broken tissue. It is quite possible that blighting of the roots of trees may be brought about by this same process. After considering these tacts it is quite evident that now is the proper time to remove the source of infec tion.

Failure to do so may spread the disease instead or eradicat ing it. In case of blighted limbs, cut at least a foot below last indication of the disease. Wood tftms removed should be burned. Inspection. Thp obiect of blifrht inspection is to help all owners of fruit trees, subject to this disease, to hold this disease ; nlionV TVnm tVie nhove descrip tion of this trouble it is self-evident . I tfhint this is a community and not an individual question. If one man cut out his blisrht and his neighbor fa-ls to do so, he is making no progress whatsoever as the source of infection is not Temoved. Consequently, it is necessary that we unite in our efforts to eradicate Hhis disease. The men that will do the inspection work will put forth every effort to assist the tree owners in eradicatint; this disease. These men are here to assist you and instruct you in the proper methods of handling this sub- .IWL. UC1IICII1UVJI UI.H.IMI, must do this work at the proper time. One day's work before the trees are m blossom, may save you several davs' work later on in the season. It is hoped tnat tne people or Grande and tfhe surrounding country will co-operate with the inspectors to the same extent as nas peen tne cass in Union. At that place inspectors and people of the town worked hand in hand, and in spite of the fact that it was the most badly infected spot in the county ttoey have practically cut out all evidence of tho blight and are at present burning the diseased woou that has been removed from the trees and otherwise making a thorough joh of it.
