II I SATURDAY EVENING, SPRAY FOR LEAF SPOT OF PLANTS Rosin Fishoil Soap Added to Bordeaux Mixture Prom ises Method of Control Washington, D. C. Aug. . .—The addition of resin fishoil soap to Bor deaux mixture promises to control tomato leafspot, although Bordeaux alone has not prevented losses. Plant disease specialists in the Federal Department of Agriculture describe the leaf-spot disease as one which causes defoliation of the plants, greatly reduced yields and in ferior fruit. Small circular spots de velop on the leaves and sometimes on the stems. They first appear as tiny dots, having a dark or water soaked appearance. Gradually thy enlarge and turn brown, and the leaves shrivel and drop, beginning at the base of the plant. Making the Solutions fJordeau mixture is best prepared by making stock solutions of the separate ingredients. The copper sulphate should be mixed in the proportions of a gallon of water, preferably soft water, to a pound of the sulphate crystals and there should be five gallons of this stock solution for each acre of tomatoes to be sprayed. The crystals shonld be dissolved in the usual way by sus pending them in a burlap bag which touches the surface of the water: the solution should be well stirred. The lime suspension or milk of lime, is also a pound to a gallon, but only three-fourths as many gal lons are needed as of the copper solution. Thus, if there are twenty gallons of the copper solution there would be only fifteen of-the lime milk. The lime should be slaked gradually by pouring the water on In small quantities and at intervals un til all has crumbled. Finally larger quantities are added with constant stirring until the volume is com pleted. If quicklime cannot be had and hydrated lime is available use as many pounds of the latter as of copper sulphate, but do not in crease the qauntity of water. Alr slaked lime must not be used. The resin flsh-01l softp suspen sion Is made with a pound of soap to a gallon of water. As with the lime, only three-fourths of the quantity of water is necessary. Hot water will hasten the dissolving of the soap. To avoid the formation of trouble some lumps the water must be add ed slowly at first with constant stir ring. Preparing the Mixture For general commercial operations two fifty-gallon barrels with outlets at the bottom ar.e placed on a raised platform so their outlets will be higher than the top of Ahe spray tank. To make 100 gallons measure eight gallons of the copper-sulphate solution into one barrel and six gal lons of the milk of lime into the other. Add to each enough water to make forty-seven gallons, stirring the contents thoroughly, and then let the two solutions run with equal rates into a trough leading to the spray tank. At the same time add six gallons of the resin fish-01l soap solution very gradually and in a small stream through the spray tank strainer along with the copper lime mixture. The copper sulphate and lime should be mixed before the soap Is added. Modifications of the method may be used for smaller quantities. Applying the Spray A traction sprayer such as that employed in the spraying of potatoes may be used except where the vines are too large. There should be three nozzles for each row. one to spray downward and two on the sides apraying toward each other. These lateral nozzles should be set low and pointed slightly up to get the spray on the under side of the leaves. Thorough spraying, repeated at from seven to ten-day intervals, Is neces sary for the best results, and must be continued through August. When the paints are too large for a trac tion sprayer in the rows, roadways should be opened and the spraying continued with long lines of, hose. One Week to Make Forest Into Camp Chicago, Aug. 4. More than 12,- 000 carloads of lumber and other building supplies for the sixteen Na tional Army cantonments to house the tirst division of men called to the colors, have been delivered bv the railroads within thirty days from the placing of the first order. An indication of the speed with which the materials are being deliv ered was cited yesterdav in an an nouncement from the railroads war board telling of the erection of ad ministration buildings at the canton ments at Louisville, Ky„ from lumber cut in a Mississippi pine forest the week before.

Russian Cabinet Resigns But Reconsiders Act; Military Governor Shot Petrograd, Aug. t, General Er delll, military governor of Petrograd, says the Bourse Gazette, has been killed. He was treacherously shot in the back. Premier and War Minister Keren sky and all the other members of his cabinet, except Vice Premier Nekras off, resigned lgtet night. Later, with the exception of M. Terestchenko. the Foreign Minister, they withdrew their resignations. The action of Premier Kerensky and his fellow Cabinet members came about as the result of accusa tions against M. Tchernoff, the Min ister of Agriculture, and a complete breakdown of the negotiations to bring the Constitutional Democrats Into the Cabinet. M. Tchernoff was accused of having been connected with the German General Staff. A last attempt will He made to reconstruct the Ministry under Premier Kerehsky with the chief new members being exclusively from the Socialist and Radical parties. The Government accepted the resignation of M. Tchernoff. who stated that he left his post in order to defend his character against cal umny. The Government has ex pressed the conviction that M. Tchernoff will succeed in rehabilitat ing himself. Vice Premier NekrasolT informed the Associated Press that some of the documents supposed to incrimin ate M. Tchernoff already had been examined. He considers the charges against the Minister of Agriculture as not being very grave, but the Cabinet was obliged to accept the resignation provisionally.

"Says I to Bill. 'Here she blows,' and before I could finish, the torpedo exploded and the Rockingham was done for. Winged, we laid there with the sea surging in and filling up the insides of the ship. A million dol lars busted in the middle by a measly torpedo, caving in tne whole engine room and killing two of the poor devils. "We didn't shove off, the ship did the shoving, and left us floundering in the boats, me nursing a skun knee from sliding down a boatfail. We were in two boatloads, white and Ha ivaiians; and us sailors all together in one. "Say, it was a long way from home and mother and some of us kids just new to the game and never before on salt water, and sort of lonesome, with wet sea rocking up and down at us. I come from a farm in Wis consin. Wan Some itlrd "The Chief Gunner's Mate was some bird, he said we behaved like real 'gobs' but I was seasick to my tummy, though I didn't let on. We were pulling like the devil. It was sort of rough, but the C. P. O. kept us at the oars as if we were training for a boatrace. All the while we kept our peepers plumb on .he horizon, hoping to pick up a smr.dgo of smoke somewhere. The rubberneck wagon had nothing on us. "But it was getting more and more lonely and awful wet. I remembered the old wheeze, 'ls the moon coming up, too?' "And while I was sitting there, pulling on the oar with one hand and shoving a ship biscuit in my face with the other, I couldn't help thinking that at last the Ger mans got the Rockingham, having two years ago tried to torpedo her. 1 couldn't help thinking how the ship's lamp-trimmer told me that in the middle of the night the foremast crashed down and as the ship stopped the skipper came out of his room trailing his pajamas and bawled out everybody, not knowing what hap pened. Anyway, they all had to take to the boats, but after paddling around all night and waiting for help, they found the old ship still afloat at daylight, so they climbed on board again and got back to port. "Making out smoke," we headed to wards it and in a little while up lum bers a steamer above the horizon, us hoisting the colors on an oar. She looked like a square-head tramp. Fi nally she changes her course and picks us up. And, believe mo, those Scandinavian guys were the real stuff, and gave us lots to eat, and we cheered up some when we hea.-d that she was bound for the U. S. A. # Renl Heroes "But you should see us lahd, dressed up in all kinds of sea rigs borrowed from tho tramp's slop chest, us look ing like going to a masquerade. Hit ting the beach, some high-ups get us all together and we take passage for the Fleet at Base No. , and get back again to our old home. "And say, weren't we the real heroes when we came over the gang way, I guess yes.—like a circus pa rade swaggering up Main street, with the rest of the rubes looking on wild eyed. We had seen WAR all right, and right in the eye, too. That's what I wrote mother." This was the kid's story.

This photograph has been passed by the Committee on Public Information. down at the base. These youngsters talking It all over among themselves, touching up their yarn here and there and putting on the finish varnish in the letters to the folks at home, mak ing the censor work overtime reading the dope. But chewing it over among them selves, the lads suddenly discovered that they had been cheated. So they organized a delegation to wait on the gunnery officer of tho ship. Intensive Training; In the eyes of the young bluejack ets who had just come in and are new to the game, the gunnery officer stacks up highest, for he is in charge of the shooting irons of the dread nought and is the whole thing, all the angels rolled into one and enam eled at that. With the kids he has the muzzle velocity of a 15-inch gun and to the youngsters the skipper in comparison is just a myth, some In visible power in gold lace. Now, the training given is most in tensive in character; each man is made to specialize as far as possible, and every effort is made to perfect each member of the crew in the work to which he is assigned. The most likely youngsters—even those who have never seen anything larger than a 12-bore shotgun—are assigned arbi trarily, to start with, as gun pointers and gun captains.; the hefty, strong, well-built lads afe made shell men and loaders; men of quick minds are as signed as sight-setters and telephone operators; and these men are trained, TRAINED, and instructed, cautioned. Always drilled together,, they are made to feel that if any one of them falls down In his particular job. the work of the others Is spoiled. It is all teamwork, like on the diamond. So this gang laid aft and waited on the gntinery officer and presented their case thuswise: "Of course, Mis ter, we are going to be the next fel lows in the gun crew to go abroad, ain't we/" "Certainly not, you had your triji; you just came back." -v"No, sir, we didn't just come back, we never got there. You know when we left you said we were going to England and we never saw England at all. We ain't going back home and have all the fellows guy us and say that we didn't finish the job and that the "U-boat ditched us." They went back, all right. • AhMorb .Spirit Here you have a sample of the met tle in these youngsters, some barely a month in the outfit, but getting the the punch and absorbing the spirit of the service, the willingness to do the job, the desire to play the game. It is now tolerably well known that picked men from the battleship fleet have been sent to mai} the guns of the armed American merchant ves sels that go abroad. This started first several months ago and a gun crew and their officer in command would make a round trip across the ocean and back and then return to their ship. You know how well these men have done their duty, and truthfully their exploits have been reported in the public press. But in hunting the U-boat little has been said about the long, untiring watches and the ceaseless vigil that these men keep while crossing the sea. and particularly when nearlng the danger zone. And these calls from the fleet have been so great that raw recruits have been specially trained to man the comparatively small-caliber guns which our mer chant vessels carry. Intensive train ing has been the order of the day, and the fleet is full of bully stories 01' how these young and comparative ly inexperienced men have taken to the game. There is sucn a tiling as being gun shy, and even old-time men might an ticipate thlng.s before firing. A tlraft of men came on board a dreadnought the other day.- Though willing, they hud only a mote idea of naval dis cipline; they had only been at the training station a few weeks. They didn't ask who the "topside guy was walking up and down the deck with an opera-glass under his arm, doing no work." They knew that he was the officer of the deck. But In man o'-war term, they were Just green. The first thing was to show them a gun; the second, which was the business end of the gun, and where the gun was loaded. And in the do ing, thfe loading machine was Intro duced, a contrivance which simulates the breech of a gun in which the blue- Jacket lad is taught to pump in pro jectiles and powder at the rate of fifteen a minute. Then subcaliber work, which means that a small gun clamped on the big one, is fired at a small target close aboard. With all hands properly keyed up and full of pep and hope, there wus the first target practice. Not one of the rookies had ever heard anything bigger go oft than a Fourth of July firecracker. Three gun crews were to fire at the target In what Is known short range practice, which con sists of firing at a mark not very large and at moderate distance. The doors of each gun compartment were closed so that each gun was' com pletely isolated from the others and lrom communication with the entire ship except by telephone or voice tube. Several runs were made across the ranges were taken down; the sight-setter set hlfi sights, and, outside of actually firing the pieces, it was the first touch In the test. One of the precautionary measures' which is always taken in target prac tice is that after a round is fired the first loader looks through the bore of the gun to see that there are no un burned powder grains or parts of the powder bag or any smoke or flame left in the gun. An automatic air blast drives the gases out of the muz zle, thereby preventing premature ex plosion. Neither the shell nor the powder charge are put in the breech until this man sings out "bore clear." But at this practice the wind was on the bow and drifted the smoke into the gun ports and the muzzle of the gun, taking it longer to clear the bore. The youngsters knew and had been told what ilarebacks meant and that any premature explosion would send all handst o kingdom come. The order "Commence firing!" had been given. Almost instantly the gun pointers found their target and had the cross wires in the sight right on it. Num ber 1 gun fired right after number 2. As the breech of number two gun was thrown open, some smoke and powder gases from number one were blown into the muzzle. The second loader, whose duty it was to examine the bore, tok a good look through it, and seeing that the bore was ap parently filled with smoke, sang out "Bore'not clear!" Now, the lad with the powder charge felt instinctively that some thing was wrong. Anyway, his rou tine was interfered with. In his arms he had the powder. He knew its po tential energy. He knew the danger. So he threw himself flat on the deck and wrapped himself around the pow der bag just like an elephant wraps his trunk around a peanut. He had to shield it. He believed that the life of the ship depended upon him. With only a month's training, the boy had already the Instincts of a man-o'-warsman. He was willing to sacrifice his life to save the ship, and he did it upon his own responsibility without anybo'dy's say-so. He had al ready learned Initiative. At present the Fleet is the training school 'for the navy, a Plattsburg afloat, where in time of war the training which would ordinarily take months is compressed Into weeks. The main thing is the morale of the lad, the implanting of self-confidence, of responsibility, quick wit and initi ative. It is around that same initi ative that the annals of the navy have been written. The new lads will help to write some more. There is a haze. Like gray fort resses, the dreadnoughts pile up against the evening sky. The notes of "taps" rise over the water. The running lights of the patrol glimmer their reflections in the turning tide. Blinker signals make flre-fles in the night, the red truck lights dot the guard ships. Tired men break out hammocks and turn in for the night. The day's work is done.

AUGUST 4, 1917. So Many Husbands She Needs Reforming New York, Aug. 4.—Marlon Ruth Ransom, 24 years old, was comnfltted to Bedford Reformatory yesterday by County Judge Hylan In Brooklyn. She had pleaded guilty of bigamy. Probation Officer Marie McMahon said five men claim the young woman as wife. Klbert L. llolly told Judge Hylan ho had married her twelvo years ago, "when she was only a child," and drove her out of his home when he returned one night and found a man there. Then Holly got a divorce. Sidney H. Gobay. of 32 3 State street. Brooklyn, married her July 27, 1915. She lived with him three weeks and then departed. Two months after her marriage to Gobay she met George F. Bergman, of 375 East Thirty-second street, Flatbush. He married her two weeks after the meeting. Officer McMahon heard of two other alleged husbands. One named Heinz and the other Croy, but could not find them. Bergman yesterday begged the court to let the woman go free. "I will support her," he said. "I can give her a good home." "It was only six weeks after she married Gobay that she married you," said the court. "That was partly my fault," re plied Bergman, "I wanted her to marry me." "Did you know she was married?" demanded Judge Hylan. "Oh, no," answered Bergman. He married her In Albany after a swfit wooing that began in a Man hattan restaurant and reached the proposal stage in a roadhouse. Will Hurry Move For a Dry Nation Washington, Aug. 4.—Senator Sheppard, of Texas, author of the resolution proposing an amendment to the constitution for submitting the question of Nation-wide prohi bition, announced yesterday it is the intention of the "dry" forces to urge the Governors of the several States to call special sessions of Legisla tures to act on the question. "As soon as the resolution has passed the two Houses," said Sena tor Sheppard, "we immediately will begin a campaign to have the Leg islatures assemble. We will take the ground that this is a war measure and should be disposed of as such. "Within six months after it has passed the Houses the measures should be well on the road to ratifi cation." Opponents of the amendment will vigorously oppose its consideration as a "war measure," declaring this is a mere pretext since the Food and War Revenue bills cover all ques tions? affecting liquor necessary to conserve the war interests of the country. The big fight to be staged irr State Legislatures, it is said, is whether the States are willing to relinquish their sovereignty over the control of the liquor question and vest it in Congress. 1919 Recruits Fight in German Armies British Headquarters in France and Belgium, Aug. 4.—German officers captured in the battle in Flanders ad mit Germany* loss in manpower to be serious. They say the entire class of 1918 recruits is now in the field, and that small elements of the 1919 class al ready are at the front, although it is claimed they are serving only as volunteers. The whole trend of the statements made by these officers is that they are beginning to fear they may lose the war. More depressing than any thing else is the fear that there may be another winter campaign. Peace without annexation or in demnity is indorsed by all the officers who have discussed the question, but most of them have indicated that they favor'the annexation of eastern Bel glum and k part of the coast of Flan ders, if such a thing could possible be done. An officer who has rriade a study of economic matters said the war already was costing the Fatherland ten billion marks annually in Interest. ~ Lawn Mowers SHARE.

The meeting was hold under the auspices of the national war aims committee and was probably tho greatest patriotic demonstration of the year. The expectation had been that the premier's speech would bo a most important one. The Marquis of Crewe, leader of the Lilf ral party in the house of lords, was chosen to preside. He was supported by the Archbishop of Canterbury, twenty members of the government and ono hundred members of parliament. Baron Sonnlno, the Italian foreign minister and Nikolai Pachitch, tlio Serbian premier, were invited guests. In the course of his speech Pre mier Lloyd George said: "Victory must be so complete that our national liberty never again shall be challenged. "Russia learned that an army without discipline is a rabble. "There are some Here who want to set up committees for the British army and direct the conduct of the war. We cannot allow a sectional organization to direct the war or to dictate the terms of peace. The na tion as a whole made war and the nation as a whole must make peace." Killed •lunkcrdom The premier on opening his ad dresig asked what would have hap pened if Great Britain had not en tered the war. He answered this question by saying: • "Europe would have been at tho mercy of a cruel military power. Russia would have disintegrated sooner. France would have fought bravely but might have been over whelmed. America's Monroe doc trine would have been treated as a scrap of paper. The fact to-day is that we have checked the ambitions of Germany." Tho British prime minister said he did not trust the German peace talk. "Neither the Kaiser nor the Chancellor," he declared, "has yet said he would be satisfied with Ger man soil. They talk glibly about peace but stammer over the word restoration. Before we have a peace conference they must learn to use the word restoration. So far they have not learned even the first letter of the alphabet. Ghastly Business "War Is a ghastly business, but it is not so bad as their peace. While they know their plot has miscarried this time the Prussian war lords have determined to succeed the next time. There must be no next time. This generation must eliminate war from the tragedies of human life." Continuing Mr. Lloyd George said: "If we sow seeds of discßntent and disunion in the nation we shall reap defeat. "A nation which falters before it reaches its purpose will never be come a great people. "No one in Great Britain, France, Italy and Russia or even in Ger many, and Austria has any idea how near we are to-day to the summit of our hope."
