A Timely Warning is Issued to the
Fruit.Growers.
There is No Use Hoping For Re.
eovery of Infected Trees.
Toronto, Nov. 9. --The little -peach
hasbeen inreetigated by M. L.
Caesar, of the Ontario Agrietatural Cote
h•gei Gnelell, who journeyed te the
peach distdets of Michigan and. has e'e-
n:rued with valuable information for
fruit growers.
Little -peed), he sap, is a very de-
etructive diseese, ami, in the opinion
of the majority of alieltigao growers,
is several times more deatructive than
peach yellows. Wherever affected
trees have been allowed to remain the
whole orchard, rie rme, has become
hopelessly diseased in four or five
years. An expert grower stated that
tie had. !rimed seen more than 100
orchards. thus destroyed. So far as
known no variety of peach tree is ex-
empt. Japanese pluute are quite sub-
ject to the disease. It is clear, there-
fore, that they must not be overlooked
Shen tithing measures for the control of
the disease, Little -peach attack's trees
from two years of age upwards. This
is also, of course, true of yellows.
The disease has been suce-asfully
controlled in Michigan and other places,
but only by the removal eacsh year as
soon as possible of. all eleatly diseased
trees and also all suspeoted ones. Lt le
absolutely necessary to remove the sue-
picious eases as well as the clearly die -
eased.
Co-operation in control measures is
neeessary, and where orchanie are
close together, as in Ontario peach
districts, is imperative; for no petson
ean thoroughly control the diseake
in his own orchard by the removal of
diseased trees if his neighbor only. a
few rods away fails to remove his.
If, however, the orchards are halt a
mile or more apart one may hope to
be able to keep his own orchard fairly
free from the disease, even independent-
ly of his neighbors.
Where trees heve been removed. be-
cause of the disease young trees may.
if desired, be set in the same place
next spring. Such trees are not any
more subject to little -peach and yellows
than any other trees in the orchard.
The cause of little -peach or of yel-
lows is not yet discovered. It is aot
definitely known in how many ways
the disease may be spread. It is
probably first brought into a distriet
on nursery etoek, and. once in the
orcliardc it certainly spreads from one
tree to another, but just how no one
knows. Many think that the time
of infection is during the blossoming
season. A number of things point
that way, but the evidence is not con-
clusive.
The disease can be propagated by
budding. The ordinary inspection is
not sufficient for little -peach, as this
disease often does not show until the
latter part of September. Nerefore,
inspection work should continue up to
the coloring of the leaves by frost,
• It is not an infrequent oeturrence
to find trees with all the symptoms of
little-peadt except tbat the fruit
'ripens somewhat prematurely or at
latest in the normal time. Sgeh fruit,
shown no signs of yellows. Thia is
possibly an abnormal ease of little -
peach, though some think it is due
to both little-peaelt and yellows attack-
ing the tree at the same time. What-
ever be the cause these trees must be
destroyed just as if they had. typical
little -peach or yellows.
In some distilets in Ontario little -
peach has already caused the loss of
several orchards and of many trees
In nearby orchards. Every grower is
urged to destroy at once every tree
marked by the inspector andeevery sus-
pected tree. There is no use of hoping
for the recoyery of trees; they never re-
cover from this disease.

peaeh disease, with recommendations
for its control is being published, and

Sugar to Preserve Cut Flowers.
Flowers are being sent in numbers to
us "spirits in prison" in London by coun-
try friends. How to preserve the cut
blossoms, that is the question. There
are those who pin their faith to clipping
the stalks every day and giving them
fresh water. Others vote kr a pinch of
salt in the water or a dash of ammonia
or a piece of ehakoal.
An eminent Aeseulapius whom I met

Origin of Windfall.
What precisely is the origin of the •ex-
pression "a windfall," which Mr, Asquith,
Lord Aviebury and others use, each with
an application of his own, in speaking
of budget matters? ,An old eneyelopea-
dia explains that some families of the
English nobility held their land on a
tenure which forbade them to cut down
trees, these being reserved as the prop-
erty of the royal navy. But any tree
which fell down without human assist-
ance they might keep, so that a hued -
cane Nursing a great "windfall" was
heartily weleome. It seemprbable,
however that the expression was ampler
in origin. Even an apple that fell to the.
ground without the trouble of picking
it, and which ft passerby might often
annex without feeling that he was a.
thief, would be a lucky "windfall." -

in winter when you have a Perfec-

radiator which can be moved to
any part of a room, or to any room
in a house. When you have a
Absolutely smokeless and odorless
you do not have to work close to the
stove, which is usually far from the
window. You can work where you
wish, and be warm. You can work on
dull winter days in the full light near
the window, without being chilled to
the bone.
The Perfection Oil Heater quickly
gives heat, and with one filling of the
font burns steadily for nine hours without smoke or smell. An
indicator always shows the amount of oil in the font. The filler -
cap, put in like a cork in a bottle, is attached by a chain. This
heater has a cool handle and a damper top.
The Perfection Oil Heater has an automatic -locking
flame spreader, which prevents the wick from being turned
high enough to smoke, and is easy to remove and drop back, so -
the wick can be quickly cleaned. The burner body or gallery
cannot become wedged and can be unscrewed in an instant for
rewicking. The Perfection Oil Heater is finished in Japan or
nickel, is strong, durable, well -made, built for service, and yet
light and ornamental.

THE TWO SONS,
The parable of the prodigal son is ton-.
sidend the crown jewel of the Masterai
parables. Its matehlese beauty, fidelity,
mad completeness has won for it the
highest place. The younger sop has out-
elione in pletUresetienese the elder, anti
men are slow to portray the partsof

of the great Master Artist is for the
elder rather than the younger. The ard-
elit youth having money taut
opportunity goes his way. He writes
his &invader as be goes. The labels are
true to ---- He is ready at any
time to deliver the goods, when the cus-
toms officer heaves in sight. "Publi-

Why? Bemuse they are easy to catch.

for the midnight son, is easily identified
by midnight fishermen of men. See
See them unload their hearts there are
no doubts, no criticism, 120 delay. They
simply come to be washed and. are clean.
But look at the elder brother, he holds
his Psalm book properly in the house of
God, he goes to communion, he is in
good. standing, he is even benevolent.
But look at his heart; there's many a
grudge, he is ungracious, hard, arrogant,.
absorbing, unsa•tisfied. "Thou never gay-

the men who are in danger of reeeiving

who stagger in the street through drink.
The men at the headof trusts and coun-

USES OF TRIBULATION.
Why does tribulation come? Because
it is needed to bring out the beat that is.
in use. True it comes beaeuse of sin, but
since we are sinners it is so arranged
that our tribulations shall ell be over-
ruled for otir good. What man might
have been and bow he could have en-
joyed heaven had he not fallen,•we can
only speoulate. But ois know that the
man who is patient under tribulation
reveals beauties of faith and service that
are most glorious in the realm of mind
and spirit As man is" now constituted,
tribulation is a blessieg.
What are the uses of tribulation? It
makes man humble. It sends him to the
source of all power. Many a foolish scof-
fer cries "God help me!" in time of sud-
den distress, It makes man useful. Hav-
ing suffered and toiled, man knows how
to sympathiee with and how to help his
fellow man. It makes man Christlike. It

be, lett we know that when he shall tsp.
