".Scot- ties" are known as "a camp shoe" of very superior quality, in fact as far as we know, there is no camp or sum- er shoe that is "Equal to .Scotties".

They are flexible and extreemly comfortable, will wear better than an ordinary lea- ther shoe and are much more comfort- able especialy for Sumpter Wear, We alio have what are know as Scampers, which are also a very good line but in our opinion not quite so good as Scot- ties. Our prices are, for . Scotties, Men's $2.25, Boys' $1.99, Youths' 11 to 1.3e $1.79, Children's $1.49, while in Scampers for Men $L99, Boys', Youths' and Children's are 10c per pair cheaper than Scotties .

Fruit Attacked by Parasite We have on display in our window a branch of a wild plumb tree that has fruit on it which matured to nor- mal size. The peculiar thing about this friut is that although it was mat- ured and fleshy during its growth it was attacked by some parasite that removed the pulpy part of the fruit leaving the skin intact, which feels just like a blown up ball. The tree is on Andrew McDougal's property in the Town Plot and he told us when he brought this sample in to our office that all the fruit on the tree was elm- ilarly affected. The tree in spring was heavily laden with blossoms and the fruit apparently matured quite natur- ally. We have heard several reports of cherry trees being attacked by a bug which caused the fruit to grow long in shape and have fibrous filling but in this case the plums were nor- mal in shape and size.
