ROOSEVELT'S MOTHER 1S PAID HOMA (Special to Pioneer.) New York, Oct. 16.—Leading ‘mmovement to make the birthplace of heodore Roosevelt's mother, the fa- ‘maous old Bullock homestead at Ros- well, Ga., a permanent Roosevelt memorial. Smith and William J. Harris, as well ms former Senator Thomas W. Hard- wrick, all of whom were active politi- cal opponents of the late president, are leaders in the movement. The Bullock committee is com- 3 ©of one -member from each g rn state and is %wl WMoyd- W. McRae, of Atlanla. It has the jperation of C. W. McClure, i Wdosevelt Progressive, who Is state <hairman in Georgia for the Roose- welt Memorial association, and of E. . Y. Clarke, director of the Georgia campaign of the association. The bdbirthplace of Martha Bullock, @ southern gentlewoman famous for %er beauty and charm, who support- @d the southern cause in the sixties, although the wife of a northerner and living in New York, is a vener- able mansion of the southern colonial type in a typical Georgia plantation setting at Roswell, near Atlanta. The old mansion was often visited by Roosevelt. Roosevelt was always popular in @®eorgia. His devotion to his south- @ mother had much to do with this sentiment toward him, but his prin- eiples of Americanism made him many admirers among those who did mot belong to his party. WANT BACHELOR FOR SMALL EPISCOPAL CHURCH RECTORY (By United Press.) Wew York, Oct. 16.—The Episco- pal church is in quest of a bachelor wector to occupy the sallest rectory fim America. He must be a Dbachelor, for the smallest rectory is far too small for a rector with a wife, and quite im- possible for a rector with a wife and elildren. The smallest rectory is at St. Mark’s Episcopal church in Tonopah, Wev. The need of a bachelor to fill it has been brought to the attention of the heads of the church’s nation- wide campaign in New York by the Right Rev. George Collidge Hunt- jimg, D. D., missionary bishop of the state. The rectory has stood vacant, Mishop Hunting explains because mone but a single man could get into #t. “and there do not seem to be any more single men in the ministry.” But Bishop Hunting has found a way out of the difficulty. In his statement of the projects for Nevada %o be embraced in the campaign, he wecommends a new rectory for St. Mark’s. “‘There is not a bed to be saad in the town,” he reports, ‘‘io @ay nothing of a house.” GET RID OF DISEASE GERMS Brive Out Fowls, Close House Tightly and Burn Sulphur in It for an Hour—Then Air It 1@ the house of disease germs wermin drive out the fowls, close tightly atid burn sulphur the, entire house is full of Tt ft' remain’ closed an be- i aid for | yOU Add to tn's 8 T d| of earth’s sweet creatures with en- southerners, including United States ‘senators, have joined in an organized: Both the Georgia senators, Hoke ded by Dr [ The High Cost of Loving [ ) By SAIDEE ESTELLE COBB .

It was well onto the second month ~of *his 7pprenticeship when -one eve ning, as he chanced to look up from the book he was perusing, through the open window about 50 feet away, half screened by some shrubbery, he made out an unfamiliar figure. He dis- cerned that it was that of a woman, Judging from her garb, and although-he could not distinguish the features he was sure that her eyes were fixed ap- on the lighted room in which he sat. The figure vanished ‘and he thought no more of it until two evenings later, when the same appearance was man- ifested. For fully half an hour Earl lingered in his covert. He was about to aban- don his vigit when the swish of light garments swept the grass and a grace- ful, girlish form stood silhouetted against the streaming light from the window. Its pose was that of a per- son closely observing a certain point of interest, his room. Thither the fix- ed glance of the intruder was vividly fixed. there could be no mistake as to that. and Earl marvelled, crept near- er, suddenly reached out and pinioned the two arms of the mysterious visi- tor from behind, with the sharp chal- lenge. “What are you doing here?” Infiormatiem CONTROL. CHERRY LEAF SPOT Most Serious Disease Affecting Foliage Can Be Checked by Three Thor ough Sprayings. (Prepared by the United States Depart- ment of Agriculture.) ‘Widespread occurrence this season of cheery-leaf spot—the most serious disease affecting the follage of cher- ries in the eastern United States, and which is destructive in some of the centra} states—directs the attention of fruit growers to methods of fight- ing it. While it is too late in most instances for thorough treatment this season, it 18 not too late for the third application of the remedy, which is made after the cherries are picked and is of considerable benefit. It is not too early to prepare for next sea- son by studying the control measures which are described in Farmers’ Bul- letin 1053, recently published by the United States department of agricul- ture, giving the results of experi- ments carried on in Michigan. Three sprayings with lime-sulphur solution or bordeaux mixture will con- trol the disease, says the department. The first application should be made as soon as the petals fall, the second about three weeks later, and the third immediately after the fruit is picked. Omission of any one of the three applications results in serious foliage loss... When the disease is not severe, He became There was a fluttering feminine shriek as the intruder faced about. ' Barl's hands fell to his side, he fairly reeled with amazement. “Rhoda!" he cried. “Oh, Earl, I had to do it!” wailed the loved one. “T have not seen you | for weeks,” and then as she tottered he steadied her in his arms, and kept her there. She was sobbing hysterl: cally, but she clung to him in a fer- vor of joy. «I have just spoiled all,” whimpered, Rhoda, “and Uncle John will scold me terribly because both of us were to come to the farm tomorrow and explain.” “Uncle John, explain,” uttered the bewildered Earl. “Yes,” spoke Rhoda, “you see, we have been staying at the Waldon place for a week. Uncle John came to me as soon as you went away and told me how to try you out. He was golng to pretend you must give me up. Then, if you still insisted you would never cease to love me, that would prove you was worth having for a husband, and if. you went to work it would show you was the right sort. And he is so delighted at the splendid way you have made good, and I am 80 proud of you that, if it pleases you, he will buy us the best farm in the district.” © “X pair of merciless plotters,” ral- lied Earl. “How dare you look me in the face after such a confession.” “I won't” answered Rhoda meekly. and nestled her pretty head close up DAILY PIONEER on Barl's shoulder. B R T especially in the South, it may some- times be controlled by spraying:three weeks after the petals have fallen and directly after the fruit has been picked; but the omission of any of the “three applications is always at- tended with risk. Upon affected leaves the digease Lrst appears as small purplish ‘spots which later turn brown. These spots are usually circular, but several ‘may be so close together as to form 'a large irregular area. A corky tissue 18 ‘formed around the affected areas which drop out, giving the appear- ance of shot-holes, a name often given to the disease. ) Badly injured leaves turn yellow and fall. ‘A tree severely attacked in the early spring fails to mature its fruit, which may continue to hang om in & semi-mature condition throughout the season. In mild cases only a few leaves are injured, but frequently in- fections are so numerous that the tree is defoliated by midsummer. Leaf-spot is caused by a fungus which passes the winter in the fallen-leaves whence it infects the new leaves the following season by means of spores. In the experiments conducted By the départinent in Michfgan, yvariou sulphtir and copper preparations, both Leaf Spot of Cherry. commereifal and homemade, were used, but of alF the spray materials tested only lime-sulphur solution and bos~ deaux mixture gave satisfactory re- sults, Trees sprayed with self-bofled lime suiphur were almost as badly diseased as the unsprayed trees. Bordeaux mixture used in combat- ing leaf-spot s composed of three pounds of bluestone, four pounds of Hme, and fifty gallons of water, but it should be used only on sour varie- ties as it burns the foliage of sweet varfeties severely. When lime-sul- phur solution i8 used, it should be made by diluting 1% gallons of the etock or eommercial solution with 50 gallons of water, for sour varieties of cherries; and for sweet cherries one gallon of the stock solution to 50 gallons of water will control the disease and eause very little injury to the foliage. For the control of in- gect' pests two pounds of arsenate of lead paste should be added to each 60 gallons of spray in the first two applications.
