So if you don't find in the Tablets the news you gave, us, don't give up. It might be elsewhere. Might even be in the comic strip, along with Snuffy Smith. We took a lot of space witn Lin coln's inaugural speech, even then using less than half of It. We'll say this for Abraham Lincoln. No president ex pressed so' much appropriate information in such a short time and few words as he did in the Gettysburg address.

Fear decline, a disease of the roots of pear trees that causes trees to wither and die, is causing some anxiety among local orchardists who claim that although tlie sci entists arc still conducting ex tensive tests, no definite an swer as to Its cause and cure has been obtained. There arc many ideas as to its cause, such as: too much water; too much nitrogen; virus infec tion; and others. But so far none of these check out as the cause. A California man tells us that he estimates that at least 100,000 pear trees wore lost with pear decline in that state in 1BU0. Joe Stalllngs, an enlistee In the U, S.
