When this condition Is caused by symphilids the attack is gen erally fatal to Ihe stand. Kffcc- tive control has not been develop ed but frequent stirring of Ihe soil with the cultivator or hoe is said lo have value. fc!ufur planted with the seed is thought to act us I a repellant. ( In growing Oregon strawberries the cultural practices which vari'-d the most widely are frequently. depth of cultivation, according to f ri poils iy the experiment station, f Some plantings are cultivated four I or five limes, others as many as IS J times in a single season. Some ate t cultivated very shallow, some very I deep, and others at all distances ! between. Prevalence of deep eul J U vat Ion at least at some time of the year was found to be respon sible for much damage to the routs.

They are not "insane subject. And they have time to read. tight fiction gives a pleasant rest and wholesome relaxa tion to the busy mind, but anyone who has ever had typhoid, an operation or a sprained ankle knows that when there is nothing else to do but read, light fiction soon palls. The succession of long and dreary days with nothing to do but live through them calls for stronger moat. The insane, moreover, are no longer hopelessly so. More is being learned every day about healing sick minds. The heiWy tomes are not only a comfort to those waiting, but for those who lejoin the normal world later on, they doubt less strengthen the powers of living and doing. I'OI'.'I'I.A N'l 1. Ore..
