BARK DISEASE KILLING HUNDREDS OF TREES. Millions Lost Annually on Account of Carelessness—Whitewashing Found to Be a Good Remedy. It is estimated by State Forester Al- fred Gaskill that the chestnut bark dis- ease, which has been so prevalent, has eaused a property loss of $4.500.000 in New Jersey alone. Of this amount he figures that about $3.000.000 falls on forest owners through the loss of the chestunt trees as timber and the ne- cessity of felling them in an immature state or at unfavorable times. The remaining loss of $1,500.000 is repre- sented by the destruction of ornamen- tal trees and the depreciation of sub- Photo by American Press Association. WHITEWASHING A TREE urban property consequent upon the destruction of groves in which chest nut is the principal species. The enormous loss attributable to the chestnut bark disease has prompt- ed the state forester to repeat warn- ings regarding the importance of pro- tecting the forest and shade trees from the pests that attack them. Re- marking that while New York, Penn- sylvania and West Virginia as well as some of the New England states are organizing a campaign against its fur- ther spread, Mr. Gaskill said that New Jersey must be content to use its experience to prevent a similar dis- aster. One good way of stopping such pests from killing the trees is by white- ‘washing the lower part of the trunk. In doing so the bark is effectually cov- ered with lime, and this prevents the insects from getting at the bark. THE HOUSE OF SUCCESS. There are no elevators. in the house of success, But the stairs are long and steep, And a man who would climb to the very top Before he dare walk must creep. There are no carpets in the house of success, But the floors are hard and bare, With slippery places all about And pitfalls here and there. There are no lounges or easy chairs Nor places to rest your spine, But when one has arrived on the roof at last, Ah, but the view is fine! ¥ I ——— HOW TO TREAT YOUR BOY. Let Him Play Host and Have as Much Exercise as He Wants. Grant the boy the privilege of hav- ing his friends to meals as often as you can conveniently arrange for it. Perhaps you are among those fortu- nate ones who_have a large family with a blg table where the addition of an extra plate counts for little. [f such is the case your way Is simple. Should there be several sons to plan for, consider a system of rotation that each may have his guests in a fair ratio. If your family is small, so that it is desirable to have a little notice in advance before adding another hearty boy’s appetite to those you have reckoned for, fix on a certain time when your boy may ask a friend in to dinner or supper. Boys are delight- fully uncritical creatures. Give them a cordial welcome and plenty of food and they will never miss frills of serving. Study other compensations for the abstinence from racketing you de- mand from your boy while he is at home. Provide him chances to let off steam eleswhere, in places intended for just such relaxations. Send him out into the open on holidays and give him the means of pursuing any ath- letic sport which attracts him. They Must Clean Their Yards. South Bend, Ind. will have clean yards or know the reason why. Ata recent meeting of the city board of health instructions were issued to the sanitary officers of the police depart- ment to see that all yards are cleaned and outbuildings placed in first class condition. Those who failed to heed the warning will have the work done by the city at their expemse.
