(From a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN, June KMSprcinl )-Tho last
two wsekg have been ldeJ for tho
velopment of funsrus diseases of fruit
Tho 'weather has been especially favor
able for the development of black rot of
grapes. For the last two or three sta
tions black rot has not bothered the vine
yardtst to any appreciable extent, owing
to the dry summers. So declares J. n.
Duncan, secretary of the State Horti
cultural society.
Several days of moist, cloudy weather
where the vines are kept damp will irlve
the black rot aporwi a chance to de
velop. Black rot Is a funeus that at
tacks both leaves and fruit. The spores
are brought through the winter on the
dried up mummies of grapes on the vines
and dead leaves. When there Is suffic
ient moisture In the spring after tho
growth of the vine otarts, tho spores
are loosened from the covering, which
housed them during1 tho winter.
They may then be scattered by either
wind or water and carried to some grow
ing part of the vine, where, If condi
tions are right, thoy will dovolop. BUok
rot Is first Indicated by small, reddish
brown or blackish spots on leaves. In
two or three weeks after tho appoaranoe
of these spots on the leave, the youn
berries are attacked. First a small blank
or brownish spot at one or more places
over the surface of the berry Is noticed.
This gradually spreads until the whole
berry becomes brown and then black
and finally becomes dry and bard. They
remain en the vine In this condition tin
til pulled off, when cleaning up the vine
yard. Thin Is a disease that demands
thorough treatment. Early In the spring
the vineyard should receive a thorough
cleaning up. All leaves and dead
branches should be destroyed and tht
tmtir surface of the ground stirred.
Then spray the vines before growth
starts with a strong solution of sulphate
of copper. Follow this as soon as the
first leaves appeaf with Bordeau mix
ture, five pounds ot blue vitriol, tlvo
pounds of llrao and fifty gallons ot water.
Just before the blossoms open and as
soon as the bloosoma have fallen spray
with the same solution. At Intervals
of ten days or two weeks spray again.
If possible to do so spray bofore a rainy
spell. The above Is a brief, general
description for handling the disease.
Apply the Bordeaux mixture with not
less than 100 pounds pressure being care
ful to thoroughly coat the vines and fruit,
applying It as a fine mist. Follow this
application with another In about two
weeks, keeping careful watch of the
weather and acting accordingly. Try to
precede wet spells with spraying. By
making application now the disease may
be controled or checked and damage les
sened. To control black rot, clean culti
vation la necessary, In addition to spray
ing. Clean cultivation Is also an Import
ant factor In the produotlon ot first-class
fruit

movement since its inception that the
generals would hold themselves subject
only to General Villa's orders and would
not recognlte Carrania.
Before the travelers left Baltlllo the
breach had not been healed by the com'
promises since announced and leaders In

BRANDEIS ISJOT SATISFIED
Criticises Bill Giving Rate Board
Power Over Issuing Certificates.
HAS A NUMBER OF SUGGESTIONS
Thinks Pkysicnl Valnotlnn of Ttnll
ronda Should lie Completed Hr
fore Commission Gtren Au
thority In Uticatlon.
WASHINGTON, Juno 20. The house
bill giving the Interstate Commerce com
mission supervisory powers over the Is
sue of railroad securities was criticised
today before the senate Interstate com
merce committee by Louis D, Brandela
of Boston. His views wore not at all In
accord with thoso expressed previously
by members ot the commission, which to
a largo degree has approved the house
bill.
The fact that Mr. Brandela has been
closely conoocted with the commission
as counsel In Important cases and has
besn one of the prominent figures In
legislation of this sort for several years
aroused much interest In his dtscussloa
among oommltteo members.
Provisions tit Hill.
The house bill would give the commis
sion power to approve securities Issues,
but would not prohibit specifically any
particular Issue. Mr. Brandels proposed
to prohibit regulations In any business
other than that ot carriers and forbid
them to Issue any securities at all except
tor the betterment or extension ot tho
railroad property. This provision he
urged to curb the desire ot railroads to
go Into coal mining, hotel and other bust-
HOnOM yuivijr tllUb u, unities. oug-
gestlon was that no railroad should be
allowed to acquire by leaso or any other
way any stock or Interest In any rail
road, ship or boat line, trolley lino or In
any corporation owning or controlling
"even for the purpose of extending Its
railroad system, without tho prior ap
proval of the commission, and then only
to the extent and In the manner ap
proved by the commission." Ho also pro
posed that every railroad should notify
the commission ot Its purposo to Issue
any securities and thereby Hlvo tho full
est publicity to tho transaction.
Offers Amendment.
Mr. Brandela offered nn amendment to
tho house bill Incorporating thoso sug
gestions. He argued that na tho bill
stands railroads might Issue all sorts ot
securities and the necessary approval of
the commission might be taken by the
publlo as a government stamp ot the
soundness of the securities. He thought
the giving ot such power should be de
ferred until the physical valuation ot
railroads has been completed.
Members ot the committee said tonight
that they probably would change the
house provision granting aupervlsory
powers to the commission.
