In an address on apple trees and their enemies Professor Bailey expressed the ' opinion that a large part of the apple failure last season was due to the un usual and early development of the scab fungus. He said: The last two seasons have demonstrated that carbonate of copper is a sure remedy for the apple scab fungus. It is not yet fully demon strated just what are the best times to make application, but it is necessarj- to begin before the flowers open, and to make from four to six applications be tween that time and the 1st of August. Three applications at any rate should be made—one before the blossoms open, one just after they fall and another three or four weeks later. These applications, even when a half dozen, need not cost more than fifteen to twenty-five cents for a large tree for the whole season, counting both materi als and labor. A good formula is as fol lows: Dissolve one ounce of carbonate of copper in one quart of aqua ammonia; dilute with 100 quarts of water when ready to apply. This scab fungus appears to be some what worse on low and undrained lands than upon high and warm elevations, al though the latter are never by any means : exempt in the infected regions. Some ' growers think that the scant foliaged varieties, like Spitzenburg, are most seri ously injured. The growth of the wood is very scant because of the unhealthy foliage.

State Secre tary Barnes tells me there are 100,000 members. He says that there is no fall ing off in the membership in any part of the state. The question was asked an influential Alliance man as to what would be the outcome here of the trouble between the Alliance extremists and the people who hate the order, and who are always making flings at it. The reply was: ‘*1 have grave fears that the matters here CONTAINING will turn out pretty much as they have in South Carolina. Some newspapers are stirring up the Alliance men.

The Medlar. The medlar, a native of Europe, has been grown for many years in the south ern Atlantic states, and to some extent in California. It is, however, classed as a second grade fruit and has never at tracted any special attention. The fruit, which is of a dark brown color when ripe, varies from an inch to an inch and i a half in diameter, and somewhat resem bles the persimmon in shape. Like the sapodilla it is not good to eat until the | first stages of decay have softened the pulp. It has then a rich, sub acid flavor. The tree, says California Fruit Grower, is small but handsome, and is frequently used for making hedges. Shading Young Tree». A nurseryman who has seldom had occasion to replace a tree that has died says that his success is the result of a very simple but seldom failing precau tion. When the tree is planted a piece of wood not less than three inches wide and high enough to reach the lowest branches should be driven into the ground just south of the tree. This keeps the sun off it during two-tbirds of the day, and prevents the sap and bark being burned up before new roots have been formed. Any one adopting this pk»n will be certain to have success with his trees, no matter how poorly they loot when first planted out. ammoth tclofatha Harrison, with portraits and other illustrations, also lives and bookbinding, wood engraving, lithography, photographv, calico portraits of Napoleon Bonaparte, Shakespeare.

Just at this time our members are hard at work making their crops, and are too busy to answer questions. The Alliance men of Georgia are just the same as the Alliance men all over the United States. They have obliterated sectional lines, adopted a platform, and stand shoulder to shoulder in defense of their rights. The bloody shirt has been furled in the north, and the old scarecrow of “nig ger political supremacy” is silenced in the south. In the next election the fanners will not be controlled by senti ment or prejudice. They are going to fight their battles on the line of “equal righto to all and special privileges to none.” Any party to get the Alliance vote must frame the right kind of a platform.

Joseph Harris says: For outdoor roses in permanent beds my experience leads me to think that it is desirable to get the subsoil rich in nitrates. I have used ni trate of soda for several years, and the ! longer 1 use it on a bed of roses the more vigorous are the plants, and the more luxuriant and glossy are the leaves. 1I give them a heavy dressing every spring, and I presume the subsoil is rich in ni trates, and that the roots follow the food. The Fruit Grower says: When red rust appears upon raspberries or black berries the canes should at once be care fully cut away and burned. The sulphite of iron has proven in some cases to be a fair tonic for plants with weak flower stems. Weak solu tions should be given at first. Would you have an extraordinary de velopment of fine foliage in cannas, cala- diums, castor oil beans, eulalias, reeds, ailanthus, etc? Then rely on an abun dance of manure in the soil and abun dant summer watering. By spraying with a combination liquid —Paris green or London purple, or per haps hellebore or tobacco extract in place of the arsenite—we can prevent in- I jury from insecti as well as fungón» diseases. Supported the Alton. The action of the Kansas Fanners’ Al liance in deciding to use the Chicago and Alton as the official route for the delegates to the third party convention at Cincinnati, because the president of that road has declared in favor of gov ernment control of railroads and two cents per mile passenger rate, will do more than anything else to help the Alton to win its fight with the Trunk Line and Central Traffic association routes. The opinion prevails among the Farmers’ Alliance people that the “plu tocratic roads" in the east have boy cotted the Alton in consequence of the liberal policy of that road. The assist ance of the Grangers will be worth thou sands of dollars to the Alton, and no, doubt will induce the other western roads to withdraw the support they have been giving the eastern roads, as they cannot afford to take a position that will antagonize the Granger element and al low the bulk of the western business to be diverted to the Alton.—Chicago Trite une. ing us a club of thbee yearly subscribers to our paper Oregon: Address all letters to Ashland, ffiaUey ffiecoyb jjhtbltehictg (go.
