"BITTER BO!"
IN APPLE TREES
Prof. H. A. Surface, State Zoologist
of Pa., calls attention to a very pre
valent disease of apples,known as bit
ter rot, giving its symptoms aud tell
ing what to do at present to prevent
IOBS from it. a number of letters hav
ing besn received by the Division of
Zoology of the Department of Agri
culture, teq letting 'nformation on the
subject..
SYMPTOMS.
At first there are minute brown
speokß, varying from one to a count
less number, but ootumonly from one
to not more than a half dozen.
These spots enlarge later so as to
make each a conspicuous, dark-color
ed, circular spot, which, while pre
serving its circular form aud main
taining a sharply defined border,grad
ually extends to become perhaps an
inch or more in diameter.
The affected area does not become
soft,but is soon depressed or somewhat
shrunken while the skin assumes a
leathery appearance.
The outer portion of the spot re
mains smooth and polished, while tho
central area loses its lustre and be
comes roughned by the formatiou of a
multitude of minute pustules arrang
ed in irregular concentric ciroles.
When the atmosphere is not too dry
«ach of tiiese little pustules open and
there exudes iu microscopic masses,
or columns, a waxy substance, which
is at first pale pink in color, then pale
dull red or at length grayish when
long exposed to the sun.
The spot ultimately becomes shrivel
ed in appearance, tough in texture,
and very dark—apparently black—in
oolor.
The diseased apple usually becomes
dark brown throughout aud quite bit
ter, and shrivels into a dry, hard and
much-wrinkled mass called a "mum
xny.'' This may remain firmly attach
ed to the twig for a year or more, but
usually falls to the ground before the
drying process has been completed.
The little, dry, shriveled apples often
seen clinging to the tree 3 during the
winter are evidences of this disease.
PREVENTION.
To be on the safe side give trees a
thorough application of Bordeaux mix
tare.
To discover 'jitter rot, examine the
trees in the orohard systematically,fol
io wing the rowßand making the sharp
est possible search for the rot spots on
the apple.
As a rule, the first infection will be
found on the upper surface of the ap
ple; therefore, it is best to make the
<taminatiou from an elevated posi
tion.
A giod aud quick method is to drive
between the rows with a spraying out
fit. having two men 011 the operating
platform, a man looking at each Bide.
After the infected trees have been
located, trace ail of the diseased ap
ples until the cankered limb, which is
the source of infection, has been
found. The infected limbs should be
removed aud burned. Do this cautious
ly, so as not to spread infection. Wash
the saw or pruning shears with BUCII a
disinfectant as turpentine or with a
five per cent, solution of formalin in
Water.
Spray with Bordeaux Mixture, three
pounds btuestone, four pounds lime
and 50 gallons water, as soon as the
bloßsoms fall aud repeat this three or
four times at intervals of two weeks
each.

TURNED OUT OF
POOR HOUSE
Rev, W. H. Heyer, the deposed past
or of the Trevorton Lutheran church,
who wan forcibly evicted from the
parsonage on April 21 last, and who
for two years previous to that time re
fused to relinquish the pastorate of
the church, because, as lie stated, the
Lord had not called hi into another
charge, created quite a sensation in
the village Monday evening when lie,
together with his aged mother and sis
ter, made arrangements to spend the
night iu tlie grove west of the town
after the poor authorities had refused
theu) further accommodations at tiie
alms house.
After Rev. Heyer was evicted from
the parsonage with his mother and sis
ter was given lodging in the alms
house, he providing them and himself
with food from his small fund saved
during his years service in the minis
try. Wheu the poor authorities took
thei.i in it was supposed that it would
be only for a night or two. He failed
to so before a justice and procure the
neoessary "order of relief" for ad
mission into the institution,and with
out such the board had no authority
to provide shelter for the trio. At a
meeting of the board Saturday night,
it was decided that they were not com
plying with the law aud Monday he
was told tiiat he would have to seek
quarters elsewhere. Monday night
Rev. Heyer with his sister and moth
er the latter being so feeble she can
hardly wait, went into the park und
began preparations to sleep on the
tables. Their actions were noticed by
residents nearby and the news soon
spread throughout the town, and a
large crowd flocked to the Bceue.
George Brubecker, a well known
citizen, offered to provide the outcasts
with shelter aud his generous offer
was accepted.
In order to provide food for his sis
ter aud aged mother Rev. Heyer whose
funds have been growing less every
day, has so skimped himself that he is
on the verge of collapse from want of
nourishment. His aged mother could
not possibly have stood the exposure
of sleeping in the open air.
Attorney Shoener has taken the mat
ter in hand and will endeavor to in
duce Mr. Heyer to take out an "order
of relief" which will admit him to
the aims house where he will he taken
care of until other arrangements can
be made.

NO MORE BOUNTY
WILL BE PAID
By reason of the bonuty paid oti pelts
the trapping of noxioas animals has
proven a rather profitable itiversion
dnrinK the two years pant, but nnfor
tunately tlie business is now at an end
and the man who hereafter kiils
minks, weasels or the Jibe wili do so
purely for the sake of the good he can
accomplish without any thought of
pecuniary gain.
On Friday a communication was re
ceived at the oflice of the county com
missioners from the auditor general of
the State advising the board that (lie
last legislature has failed to make any
appropriation for the payment of boun
ties on noxious animals for the two
years beginning June 1, lUO9. An ap
propriation of $40,000 was made to pay
the deficiency that already exists. Uf
this $40,000 over $27,000 Is already due
to various counties for the balance of
bills that were due to August 13, ISIOB,
at which time was distributed the ba'>
j ance of the former appropriation then
in the treasury. From data ou hand
jit is made clear that the remaining
I 513,000 will not to reim
! burse the counties for those bills which
have already keen paid, but not pre
sented to the department. The audit
or genernl, therefore,requests that the
county commissioners pny no more
scalp bounties.
Iu view of the above at a regular
meeting of the county commissioners,
Saturday, on motion, it was deoided
to pay no more bounty on pelts of
noxious animals in Montour county.
During the two years that the law has
been in force Montour conutv has paid
out in bounty ou pelts only a trifle
j less than seven hundred dollars.
DEATH OF DR.
H. G. PULLEN
| A. 11. Woolley will leave this morn
ing for Binghamton, N. Y., to attend
the funeral of his brother-in-law, Dr.
H. G. Pollen,whose death occurred at

The deceased was well known in
Danville. He was fifty-four years of
age and is survived by three children,
his wife having died two yoars ago.

ville.
j The funeral will take place iu Bing
| hamton tomorrow. Mr. Woolley will

this week, as considerable work along
different lines remains to be done be
fore the ground will be ready for the
unveiling ceremonies next Monday.
Monday the two cannon were be
ing mounted aud painted. The two
formidable-looking guns, black in
color, are planted, one on each side of
the walk, on the south side of the
monument. Wit* their artistically
chiseled granite supports the cannon
contribute very much to the general
effect.
The ornamental electric light poles
yesterday were being painted. The
ground around the monument was ue
ing rcsodded. On the lower end of the
tract a large flower bed, in the form
of a crescent was being constructed to
be planted with coleus. The large
flower bud iu the form of a star at the
western eud of the ground will be sod
ded over owiug to its proximity to the
spot near the P. & R. track where the
large rectaugular flower bed is Btaked
