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. •tnooj eq} SUJUBOP s.oqn aoil-a }snp qjnjsjp na-va j.usaop 'tlS ~33jnb JLJSA s.aqs :so\ —asnon OI U fo ssaxjsjiv rjajnb PUB oopi sraaas s.mo.£ jo p[3 Avon JBqx—JOljsiA •Spu'l '» 8 ! n D * J »A •pjoaajj uojsofj—•ttof} , ju]Su •nil aqj oj }ja[ sj .Cjojs aqj 0} janbas 3 UX „iO.YV) jatpo oqi 3JT!

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 Rochester, N.

The children —Miss Ernestine, Robert and Regiuald—have visited in Dan ville. j The funeral will take place iu Bing | hamton tomorrow. Mr. Woolley will j join his wife in the latter city, where | she has been sojocrning for a short j time. Council Rolds Special tfeetiug.

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 off. Some work also remains to be done ou tiie walks, especially ou the one leading front Bloom street into the monument. E x \ MTNTNQ COUNTY BRIDGES County Commissioners George R Sechler aud John Coleman Toesdav made a tour of several townships to examine the county bridges. It is un derstood that one or more bridges will have to be rebuilt aud that repairs are needed upon others. Just,how much work will have to he done, however, can not be determined until all the bridges have been examined. It is un derstood that the county bridges this season will cost less than for several years past.
