Suggestions! which may help growers of the lower Columbia uuil the Willamette valley to reduce loses of their prunes and eher ri from brown-rot will shortly be jmblished by the U. S. Department of Agriculture 'in a professional paper, Bulletin No. 3(18, of the Departmental wrics, by Chacles Brooks and D. F. Fisher, of the office of fruit-disease 5nestigationj in the bureau of Plant Industry. The recommendations, which call for repeated sprayings at certain times with Belf-boiled lime-sulphur or Borde aux mixture combined with resin-fish-oil soap to make them stick and spread, are based largely on promising results obtained in experiments during the last nea-aon in the orchards of A. W. Moody at Felida, Wash. The results are pub lished not as final conclusions but to j;ive growers the benefit of such know ledge as was obtained, in the belief that the spraying system recommended is well worth careful trial. Observations for a number of seasons liave shown that the apothecia, a stage of the fungus that develops from the fallen prunes, is tho probable sourrc of the blossom in'fection with Monilin blossom blight. Fall plowing- and enrly cpring cultivation ahead of the blos soming period have apparently helped in preventing the disease by interfer- DO YOU FEEL HEADACHY? LOOK TO YOUB STOMACH It U an unusual thing for a drugg'iBt to sell medicine under a guarantee to Tefund the moaey if it does not cure. Tet this is the way Danial J. Fry, the popular druggist, ii selling Mi-o-na, the standard dyspepsia remedy. Never before haa he had bo large a number of customers tell him that medicine has been successful ss with Mi-o-na. People who a few months ago looked like walking ikeletons have put on flesh and today are ruddy nd vig orous with perfect digestion and good health. There is bo longer any need for any one suffering or making their friends suffer on account of dyspepsia. SQ-o-na can always be relied upon. The per centage of cures is so great that there is little risk to Daniel J. Fry in guar anteeing to return the money if the medicine does not relieve. And he stands ready to do so without any ques tions. Headaches, all forms of indigestion, specks before the eyes, dizzy fading, poor sleep, ringing is the ears and all forms of liver trouble are helped by Mi-o-na. A few days' treatment should show considerable gain in health while si complete cure often follows rapidly. These days are the best in the whole year for the enjoyment of good health, and Mi-o-na will put you in such perfect condition that yon can enjoy every minute of them. ing with the development of the apothe cia. In tho spraying experiments the early applications of spray were washed off, which showed the importance of the ad dition of a sticker, but even under rather unsatisfactory conditions, spraying has given fairly good result The prune plats given both early and late spraying with self-boiled lime-sulphur set from two to five times as much fruit as the umprayed ones, and gave a yield of two and a half times as much and had one-ninth as much brown-rot on the harvested and one-eighth as much on the stored prunes. In epraying, self-boiled lime-sulphur 8-8-50 and Bordeaux mixture 4-4-50 have both given good results, but the former has seemed somewhat more sat isfactory. Two pounds of rcsin-fh-hoil soap 9hould be used to each 50 gallons of the mixture. Where this soap can not be readily obtained, it. may be made up as follows: Resin 5 pounds Potaah lye, such as is sold for washing purpose-s 1 pound Fishoil 1 pint Water S gallons The resin is dissolved in the oil by heating in a large kettle. After thi has partially cooled the potash is add ed, the mixture being slowly stirred and carefully watched to avoid its boiling over. A part of the wnter is now added and the boiling continued until the mixture will dissolve in cold water. This will require about one hour. The remainder of the water is then slowly added and the mixture thorough ly stirred. This soap was found very valuable in making the snray spread and adhere to the fruit. The soap, however, cannot be used with commercial lime-sulphur. Spraying Schedule. Several years' results will be neces sary as a basis for any final recom mendations, but in so fnr an the season of 1913, when rainfall was below norm al at the critical seasons for this rot. was tvpical, the 'following schedule of spraying may be suggested: The first application just before the blossoms open. The second just after the petal have fallen. The third when tho busks have fall en. The fourth about four weeks before harvesting. The first and the fourth applications have bees, found especially important during the past seasoh. Blossom Infection of Cherries. Observations made near Vancouver, Wash., and in the vicinity of Salem. Oregon, in April, showed that there had been a blossom-infection of cherries simiuar to that already described on prune. It appeared that most of the infection had taken place after the petals had fallen but before the fruit had a rhonre to push through the husk. Black Republican cherries seemed espe cially subject to infection, estimates in dicating that on this vnriety fully fl'l per cent of the blososms were infected with Alonilia. In many orchards at least CRACK AMERICAN TRACK- MEN COMPETE TODAT (By United Press.) . Philadelphia, Mar. 11. Some of the greatest track men in the country will compete uere today in the annual Meadow Brook club indoor meet at Con- vention hall in which the Mill- rose, Irish American and New York athletic cluus of INew York have entered their entire teams. Joe Loomis, the Chicago speed master, Ray Morse, How- ard Drew, the negro flash and Brewer of Washington, also are among tiie entrants. Keenest rivalry exists between the New York clubs alone and the dash events especially are expected to bring out star showings. 7o per cent of the blossoms of other varieties were similarly infected. The work as yet has not been carried out as fuily as could be desired. It seems evident, however, that the Mon ilia blossom blight was the cause of se rious losses in the Willamette valley in th season of 11)15, and that the brown' rot of tho fruit wan the cause of con siderable loss at the canneries and heavy losses in the shipping of fresh fruit. The spraying experiments with chet ries were begun late in the season. No early sprayings were made and therefore no results were obtained on the effect, of spraying upon the blos som infections. The brown-rot at the canneries and in storage, however, was greatly reduced by lute applications of Bordeaux mixture and self-boiled lime sulphur. With tho Royal Ann cherries better results wero Secured with Bor deaux mixture than with the self-boiled lime-sulphur. It seems probable that a treatment for cherries similar to that outlined for prunes would give satisfactory control of both the blurfom in'fection and the later brown-rot attacks on the fruit.
