The Black Knot.
A. correspondent of the Aylmer Sun
gives his experience on the treatment
of black knot. He says :—"The treat-
ment is more a matter of prevention
than of cure, although a cure cannot
easily be effected when the tree has
been affected too long a time. Black
knot is a fungus growth composed of
almost innumerable minute plants.
During the early part of the summer,
when the knot first shows itself, it is of
greenish hue, and if removed when in
this stage no evil results will follow,
but if left until fall or winter the knot
will have turned black ; in other words
the minute plants composing the knot
will have ripened and scattered their
spores and seeds on other parts of the
tree and on neighboring trees, thus
laying the foundation for another crop
of knot wherever these spores chance
to get a foothold. If the orchardist
would carefully inspect his plum and
cherry trees early in the season, say
about June, and remove any knot that
may be found, then repeat this inspec-
tion a couple of months later in case
that any might have been overlooked
at the first inspection, he will have
very little trouble. with black knot. It
is impossible fear the knot to reproduce
itself if removed from the tree when
the minute plants composing the knot
are yet green, the spores not having
matured. A hundred plum or cherry
trees can be kept free from knot by
devoting half an hour per annum in
inspecting and removing the knot at
the proper season bub it ))gust be at-
tended to during the early part of the
summer,

ward, half a million dollars, for his
services in South Afrioa.

—During the South African war seven
thousand Canadians volunteered for

and from disease was 230. The first
contingent was the heaviest loser, hav-

—The Goderich Star very properly

—The eloquence of Ross, the Govern -
70 meat policy, the discovery of New On-
tario, the so-called "untarnished record"
25 of thirty years, the whole power of
13 officialdom, the prestige of two govern -
21 ments, and the machine into the bargain
14 —all combined, only managed to squeeze
3f: 39 out a questionable majority of three for
the Government.
* * *
—If the count in West Huron is at
present 23 against the Conservatives,
they have the satisfaction of knowing
that they stood for clean election meth-
ods and honest government. If defeat -
e ed, they fell fighting for the right, be -
3d hind a man of clean record and life.
2 Defeat in suoh a case is preferable to
_ victory gained by misrepresentation,
10 43 slander, bogus affidavits and boodle.
* * *
—The announcement that peace has
been proclaimed in South Africa will be
welcome news to every part of the
British Empire, and iudeed to the world
generally. The protracted struggle last-
ing 33 months is over. Now, under
British institutions, South Africa will
prosper and develop, as Egypt has under
the same influences. King Edward's
coronation will find the Empire at peace.

—Mr. Munro (Liberal) member elect
for North Renfrew died on the day fol-
lowing the election. This leaves the
Government majority—three. Conser-
vatives claim that the result of the re-
counts will give them several seats now
claimed by Liberals. Several city dail-
ies state that if the recounts result un-
favorably for the Liberals, Mr. Ross
may order a new election within thirty
days. Prof. Goldwin Smith's opinion
is—that such a course would not be con-
stitutional, and that Mr. Ross must iu
,that case either resign or meet the Leg-
islature. While the case is critical for
the Government, we can scarcely imagine
that Mr. Ross would adopt the course he
is urged to take, as the results of a
second election might be more decidedly
unfavorable for lean.
