A large number of people in this vicinity are suffering with the grin. Anna Walker is visiting her sis ter, .Mrs. Royal Fowler, Hawley. Mrs. John Becker and daughter, Edna, are visiting friends in Scran ton. tirely superseded by kinds. In the selection of n barrel spray er, or Indeed any sprayer, the most important points to consider are: Simplicity of construction, i.e., spray pumps should be as simple as possi ble, containing no more parts than are necessary, and there will bo then less to get out of order. All parts of the pump should bo readily accessi ble, in order that repairs when need ed can be easily made. The durability of a pump depends upon tho quality and kind of the ma terial used in its construction. Valves, plungers and stuffing box shouldbe mnde of such material as is not corroded by the spray fluid. Brass is the metal used In the best pumps, and is so much better than iron that no difference In price should lead anyone to buy those whose working parts aro made of iron. Porcelain and glass would seem to be the ideal material for the construction of some of these parts, but with one or two exceptions they are not now in use. A wrought iron handle on a spray pump would be a. great improvement, as the cast iron handles are soon broken on spray pumps owing to their constant hand ling The packing of the cylinder should be of a material that is both lasting and also easily replaced when worn out. Hemp, candlestickln'g. steam packing and various other packings made of these materials un der trade names are the best. Leath er hardens too rapidly to be of much use as packing, and is undesirable. For a large number of small trees and field crops tho favorite type to use would seem to be the traction sprayer. This machine generates its own power by having a pump geared to the wheels. Six rows of potatoes or two rows of trees can be treated simultaneously with the best traction sprayers. For large orchards of bearing trees the proper outfit to use is the power sprayer. These are of two kinds, viz.; Gasoline and Compressed Air. The Gasoline sprayers are fitted with an engine which generates the power as needed, while the Com pressed Air sprayers aro operated by ! a tube charged with a stationery en gine with a pressure of upwards', of 200 pounds to the cubic inch. This charged tube is attached to the spray tank from which it forces the fluid as needed. I think it wise to get an outfit with a somewliat greater capaqlty than the orchard now needs, since the work Is sure to increase with the growth of the trees." them. Also, you should watch care fully and see If they are infested with San Jose scale or.pther,, pests, and if ho. thov should bo snrayed with tho right material at tho right ; time nnd In the right manner. I trust you will not think that I am criticizing you too severely, as I write this communication in a spirit of helpfulness, rather than of criticism, Jf I enn extend to you any further service, 1 shall be glad to do so." i ...., i LEDGEDALE.

For tho destruction of Ants and Roaches, which often become an noying in the household, the follow ing letter by Prof. Surface, Harrls burg, to a Chambersburg lady will be found interesting: "You can kill the water bugs or roaches, of which you write, by putting where they can get it, a preparation known as "Roach Food," which Is for sale by many of the drug stores or department stores. Also, I understand that a prepara tion of two parts Hour, one part powdered sugar, and one part plas tor of parls, mixed well together, and left where they can eat it, will kill them, and will be perfectly harmless. Powdered borax blown into tho cracks they Inhabit will drive them away. "For the ants It is best to trace them to their nests, by following the path which they make, and when this Is located, which mny be down the side of the wall, or In a stump of a tree, pour into It a quantity of benzine, gasoline, or oven common kerosene oil. If you can thus kill the queen, you mny be sure that the entire trouble- will be entirely and permanently ended. "You enn catch many of them by dipping a large porous sponge in to dilute syrup or sugar solution, and placing it where they can get Into It, and then occasionally dropping it into boiling water, and afterward baiting it, and placing it again for them." Special to THE CITIZEN. Hawley, Pa., January 24. Many are still In tho tolls of King Grip. Since our last writing two more homes In our town have been mado desolate by the entrance of death. On Friday, January 13, Frank J. Thornton died at his home at the Eddy of consumption of the lungs after an Illness of about two years. Ho was a glass cutter .of much abil ity and had been employed by the Maple City Glass Company.

B. P. Ripley. Tho deceased was born in Detroit, Mich., September 20, 1SG1. His immediate survivors are his widow and four children Charles, Edith, Edna and Earl. He was laid to rest in the Walnut Grove cemetery, the Odd Fellows having charge of the burial service. Mrs. Jennie Tuthiil, wife of F. R Stevenson, passed away at her homo at tho Eddy Sunday evening, Jan. 15. She had been ailing for a long time with stomach trouble and it that he has been reappointed n Hawley's postmaster for the ensuing four years.

Mrs. Albert Oschman and little son, Edward, who have been making an extended visit in Now York city, returned home Thursday evening ac- was decided by her physicians that companlod by her sister and little Spraying Outfits. At this season of the year many letters reach the office of Prof. H. A, Surface, Economic Zoologist of tho State Department of Agriculture, Harrlsburg, Pa., asking for informa tion on the type ot spray pump to purchase for use In their orchards. The following letter Is published in the hope that it will answer many questions In the minds of citizens of this state who are contemplating the purchase of spraying outfits: "I have your letter of recent date ana note piatyou are about to pur chase a spraying outfit, and ask me what kind of a pump to buy. In or der to advise you intelligently I should have to know a number of things about your orchard, its extent, and the size of your trees or crops to be treated, and as I am not ac quainted with your needs, I shall nave to confine my reply to a general discussion of spraying machinery. As stated the type nnd size of spray pump should be selected to meet the needs of the work to be done. For spraying shrubbery about the house, or small fruit bushes and garden crops, the small and Inex pensive hand sprayers or compressed air or knapsack sprayers can bo used with good results, since while it re quires more time to cover a given amount of work than with tho larger sprayers, where one has plenty of time, the small hand sprayer will do the work with the least outlay for apparatus. Please do not, however. make the mistake of attempting to spray large fruit trees with a small hand sprayer, as no effective work can be done, and nil attempts of this kind tend to discourage and disgust the beginner in the important and profitable work of spraying. For the ordinary farm orchard. containing two or three dozen fruit trees of various classes, such as ap ple, peach, plum, pear and cherry, I would recommend tho use of the or dinary barrel spray pump. These outfits are manufactured by many concerns, and consist of a force pump with air chamber mounted In a barrel to receive tho spray fluid. At tached to the pump there should be from 25 to 50 feet of discharge hose, and to this fitted an extension tube or rod of about 8 feet. Tho exten sion rod is important, since It is only by this means that tho spray can be applied to all parts of tho tree ef fectively. Fine spray can not bo blown more than 3 or 4 feet, and any sprayer which Is recommended to send the fluid from tho ground to the tops of tall trees, you may know does not atomize the application suf ficiently to do good work. Tho noz zles should be connected with the spray rod by means of a one-eighth turn or elbow, which will enable the operator to turn the spray in all di rections by a rotary motion of the rod. The nozzles are a very Important part of the make up of any spray pump, and care should be taken In choosing these. Select the larger types which contain wide channels in side and are provided with removable steel discs of different sized aper tures adapted to various kinds of work. These are not only more dur able than nozzles, the cap of which Is made ot brass, but will not clog as will those that have narrow and tortuous channels. Avoid the old UNTHRIFTY FRUIT TREES' The owner of an orchard lri 'the' southern part of the state writes1 to Prof. Surface, Economic Zoologist, of the State Department of Agricul ture, stating that his young fruit trees are unthrifty, and not making the amount of growth necessary. Suspecting insect Injury, he writes for Information. Prof. Surface's let ter to him is given herewith, com menting incidentally upon neglected orchards: "The best treatment of your young orchard Is to keep it in absolutely clean cultivation during the first half of the growing season, and a cover crop, such as crimson clover during the second half and during the win ter. However, if you can not do this tho next best is to mulch It well with barn-yard manure, even if you find it best to buy the manure in order to do this. If this is impossible, a third resource is, to use commercial fertil izer. I would recommend the use of a complete fertilizer, or one contain ing some phosphoric acid, potash and nitrogen. Nitrate of soda alone Is good to push the growth, but does not give the strength of wood, nor quan tity and color of fruit, which is to bo obtained from commercial fertilizer. By this I mean fertilizer about such as is to be called a good potato fer tilizer, using from five to ten pounds to the tree, according to the size of each. The nitrate of soda can be used applying from one to three pounds to a tree- according to size. It should bo applied In the early spring as soon as growth is started, and renew it once in four or ' six weeks. One or two applications are enough. "All of your trees should be se verely trimmed back this winter, if you wish to push their growth. Re member that It will Invigorate them to prune them back severely. In ad dition to the commercial fertilizer, you should by all means, use some kind of mulch, such as straw or leaves around them, If you can not cultivate them; but more earnestly than this, I would advise you not to undertake to grow an orchard If you can not give It cultivation and proper attention. There are thous ands of persons in this country who think they enn plant trees and con tinue In some other business, while the trees are growing Into profits. This will prove a losing enterprise, as such orchards will not thrive without proper attention, and in. fact, considerable expense. Theso orchards will bo for sale In the course of a few years, and some person will probably buy them nt a price that will be a sacrifice to tho original planter, but with pruning, spraying, and cultiva tion, as well as proper methods of cover crops with but very little fer tilizer, Indeed, he will build them up and make good orchards. "1 note that your trees were fif teen feet tall when taken up nnd transplanted. I doubt If it is possible to transplant any such trees and make good trees of them afterward. I can assure you that I would rather havo a one-year-old tree transplanted and cut back to a whip, than a fif teen foot tree transplanted and cut back, to b!x feet. "If the trees havo started now, It is not necessary to feel so discourag ed as to think they should be takon out. but I am satisfied that you should have something more than a mere scattering of nitrate of soda or other commercial fertilizer around OKI) FASHIONED WINTER.

It seats a thousand people finest church In all the town; And when 'tkas dedicated, why, we planked ten thousand down; That is, we paid live thousand every deacon did his best And the ladies' aid society, promis ed all the rest. We've got an organ in the church very finest in tho land; It's got a thousand pipes or more, Its melody Is grand. And when we sit in cushioned pews and hear the master play, It carries us to realms of uliss, un numbered miles away. It cost a cool three thousand, and It's stood the hardest test; We'll pay a thousand on It, the la dies aid the rest. They'll give a hundred sociables, cantatas, too and teas; They'll bake a thousand angel cakes, and tons of cream they 11 freeze. They'll beg and scrape and toll and sweat for seven years or more, And then they'll start all o'er again, for a carpet on the floor. No; it isn't Just like digging out the money from your vest, When the ladles' aid gets busy and says, "We'll pay the rest." Of course, we're proud of our big church, from pulpit up to spire; It is the darling of our eyes, the crown of our desire, But when I see the sisters work to raise the cash that lacks, I somehow feel the church Is built on women's tired backs. And sometimes I can't help thinking, when wo reach the regions blest That men will get the toll and sweat, and tho ladles' aid the rest. Old Coins In a Secret Drawer.
