Oregon Agriculturae College, Cor vallis Professor H. S. Jackson, bot anist and plant pathologist, at the Oregon Agricultural Experiment sta tion, in a paper recently prepared, discussed at some length the nature and cure of what he considers to be mDst common and destructive disease of the peach which is met with in the Northwest. "The most common and destructive disease of the peach in the humid sec tions of the Northwest and probably wherever the peach is grown in this region is without doubt the peach leaf curl or, as it is commonly known among growers, the curl leaf. "The disease may be recognized by the characteristic effect upon the fol iage and twigs. The leaves are pecul iarly and characteristically curled. This curling results from a stimula tion induced by a parasitic fungus which grows among the cells of the leaf. The infected leaves become considerably increased in thickness and breadth. The cells of the tissues develop thickened walls and increase in size and number. The tissues of the midrib do not increase to any ex tent and the abnormal growth in the tissues on either side as described above, results in a puckering or curl ing. Since the greatest growth is in the tissues toward the upper side there is a tendency for the upper Sur face of the curled leaf to be convex. Affected twigs are increased in thick ness and very much shortened. The green coloring matter normally pres ent in healthy twigs is largely bleach ed out so that diseased twigs appear whitish. The parasitic fungus causing the trouble is known as exoascus defor mans, ihe vegetative condition of the fungus, the mycelium, is present among the cells of all diseased tis sues, absorbing the juices needed for the proper growth of the tree and stimulating the tissues to produce the abnormal structures described above which are not able to properly per form the functions of normal tissues. Productive bodies or spores are pro duced in little sacs which form a lay er on the surface of affected leaves. These form under the cuticle, finally pushing it off and imparting to the surface a frosted appearance. ' In each sac are borne at first eight spores. These become greatly increased in numbers by budding within the sac The spores thus formed escape by the rupture of the sac. These spores are presumably carried over the winter on the surface of twigs and bud scales and produce infection as soon as the leaf buds open in spring. Affected foliage usually drops and where abundant may cause more or less complete defoliation of the tree. Such trees set little or no fruit. De foliated trees usually leaf out again so that in mid-summer no signs of the disease may be found. The effect of such defoliation however, is to stunt the tree. Trees allowed to become in fected year after year are usually un profitable. "Besides the method mentioned above the fungus may be carried over from one season to the next by the mycelium living over the winter in the twigs. The fungus gains entrance to the twigs 'by the growth of the my celium down the leaf stalks of affect ed leases into the twig. Where such twigs remain alive over the winter the leaves produced from the buds on these twigs will always be infected. Fortunately only a few branches be come infested in this way and the ma jority of these die before the next spring, leaving only a very small per centage of the infection, even in ser ious cases, caused by this method. "Control. Since the great majority of infections take place at the time the buds open in the spring from spores adhering over winter to the buds, bud Bcales and twigs, it is ob vious that a sray applied early in the spring before the buds open, will kill the spores or prevent their germina tion and will control the disease. " Use the bordeaux mixture 5-5-50 or the lime-sulphur 30 degrees baume diluted 1-15 and apply early in the spring just before or while the buds are (Swelling, but before any of the buds show any green leaf tips. If any of the buds show the green tips of the leaves these may become infected. "Spraying will not prevent infec tion resulting from the mycelium win tering over in the bark of the twigs. Fortunately this method of wintering over accounts for only a small pro portion of the infection. "In spraying for leaf curl it is im portant that every twig be thoroughly covered with the spray. "Either of the sprays mentioned are equally good in preventing this dis ease. The lime-sulphur, however, has the advantage of being an insecticide and Will control the scale and is to be recommended over the bordeaux mix ture on that account." forget m lery one ought to make it a Ufa rule to wipe out from his memory everything that has been unpleasant, unfortunate, say3 Orison Swett Mar ien in Success Magazine.

In an interview with a prominent physician he states that people should pay more attention to their kidneys as they control the other organs to a re markable degree and do a tremendous amount of work in removing the poisons and wasto matter from the system by filtering the blood, During tlio winter months especially, when we live an indoor life, the kidneys should receive some assistance when needed, us we take less exerciHe, drink less water and often eat more rich, heavy food, thereby forcing the kidneys to do more work than Nature intended. Evidenco of kidney trouble, such as lame buck, inability to hold urine, smarting or burning, brick-dust or sedi ment, siillow complexion, rheumatism, may be weak or irregular heart action, warns you that your kidneys require help immediately to avoid more sorious trouble. An herbal medicine containing no minerals or op'utes hns the most healing influence. An ideal i herbal compound that has had remark". hlo success as a kidney remedy is Dr. Kilmer's Swamp Hoot. You may receive a sample bottle of Swamp-Hoot lv mail, absolutely free. Address Dr. Kilmer Co., Binghamton, N. Y., and mention this paper. I r ii.
