k Leaf Cart and Plum Pocket. University Agricultural Kxperiileat . Newspaper Bulletin No. 00. June Ail over the state of Indiana the peach tUbes are thin season .quite generally injured by abnormal development of the leaves. They become tliickened, much puffed and blistered, and with a yhitish bluotu on the aarface of the affected portions. These distorted leaves will finally drop off, and often the fruit on account of the weakened erudition «f the tree, diops also. Healthy leaves after a time replace the diseased ones, and in the latter part of the season the trees regain a normal appearance. This disease is known as “leaf curl,”and is caused by a fungus -that penetrates the tissue*, and on the surface forms spores so abundantly as to make the leaf look pale. Moat of the injury during any season, however, does not oome from the spread of the •spores, but from the f>art of the fungus that lives over the summer and winter in the ends of the twigs and buds. Although the-tree* appear to quickly recover from an attack of “curl,” yet they really carry the .disease in their tissues until next year, when it breaks out again in the young leaves. Some seasons are iu<ce favorable to its development tlwu others, but a tree which once shows the disease is likely to have more or less “curl” every year. No effective remedy «* known. Spraying with Horde*** mixture as soon as the dis--ease shows, checks Hie distribution by sjarres somewhat, and cutting off the twigs And limbs bearing the -curled leaved gets rid of some of tlie perennial {tart of the fuugue; but the most thorough attention •only partially checks the disease and it is doubtful if the results pay for Ate effort. Plum Irees are affected with diseases produced by very similar fungi. The spring jpowth. s«»metimes the leaves, l»ut more •usually the shoots, are puffed and whitened and greatly distorted,, the youug stems occasionally becoming a half inch to an inch thick, soft and hollow. In other cases the fruit is similarly affected. The plums are paler, more elongate*!, soft ami hollow, without a trace of a pit. These are often called “plum packets,” and sometimes '‘bladder plums.” Like the peach curl, this disease winters over in the ends of the twigs. and a tree once attacked will tie likely to show the disease from year to year. But as a rule only a few branches of a plum tree attacked, 4Uid cutting away these branches may rid the twe of tire disease. No other remedies •are known. J. C. Akmiiu, Botanist. N» Hriplng or Pain*.

Crop Condition*. The weekly sum unary of cliouUe and erop conditions for the southern portion of the state issued by the state branch of the weather bureau is as follows; Warm weather and much sunshine were eery beneficial to maturing orojw ami farm work, but no nun fell and growing crops begin to need it. Wheat is maturing rapidly; it begins to torn, and cutting will begin withiu ten days; the yield promises to be heavy and good; the heads are large and apparently well filled; tied dust is doing injury in some fields. Oats are heading; in some fields they are still small, (feeding rain. Barley is being harvested iu some localities. Bye promises a good crop. Corn grew rapidly during the week; some is still small and late, and planting is not ended yet; in some localities the more advanced has lawn cultivated several times and stands well in clean fields. Meadows promise a heavy crop, especially if rain wines soon. Garden vegetables grow well. Tobacco] plants are ready to lie set .out, but the ground is too dry. Timothy ts iu fair condition; the fields are very weedy in Dubois coiuity. Early potatoes begin to bloom; they*look very Well but rain would improve them. A good .erop of clover is being cut. Sweet potatoes are set out.' Tree fruit is | dropping off lunch; cherries are ripe and] abundaul. Berries promise a large crop. ] Strawliemes are nearly all marketed; the j crop was good and heavy. Pasturage con- j tinned to be good, but it begins to need rain. Stock is in healthy condition. The army worm and cut worm are lining damage tn Spencer county, and potato bugs are numerous nearly everywhere. -£ Yellow Jaundice fared.

Modi cal Law is Valid. The supreme t**«urt affirmed the case of the slate oil relation of John A. -Burroughs against the state board of medical registrar lion ami examination, in which the superior court of Marion county refused to issue a mandate to compel the board to grant Dr. Burroughs a license to practice medicine. The court, in au opinion w ritten by Judge Howard, holds that the law creating the bmird of medical registration is const it ntiouai. and that it gives the tMiard authority to decide w hether a person51 holding a license to practice medicine under the law of 188$. obtained his licence in tlie proper manner, and whether he is a fit jn-rson to receive a certificate under the new law. it also holds that the luiard, foe sufficient cause, tnav revoke a license after it is granted, subject, to an .appeal to thecircuit orsuj«ertor court of the county in which the bidder of tlie license resides. The court says .that an applicant /or a certificate of his qualifications to practice modnine might, by mandate, compel the state board to aid on bis application. but that, utter it has acted, hts only remedy is an appeal to the court; i* can not compel the board to take the! articular actk>» bedesires. It says the old license, issued under the act of 188o wae revoked by the law of 1897, and remained in for. e only until [the board could act on the application for a new license, but that if a new license rs refused, the applicant has no right to practice medicine after such refusal, unless, oh appeal to the court, the board is required to issue a license.

J. K. I Adams it Son. , j intitami’s Wealth. The Indiana board of statist ics, John B. Connor, chief, has i 'Ued a bulletin treating of the physical condition and wealth of tin j state since 1916 Among the illustrations in the bullet in are the state laiuse at Cory - don in 1816, and the “constitutional elm” , 9i Coryiloii, the tree under which the first j convention did a part of its work. The bulletin, shows that the coal output last j year amounted to 4.228,085 tons, while $2,300,000 worth of opiilic limestone was taken from the ’quarries of the state. The progress in wealth is shown by the valuations for taxation and the increase per capita.

Pusiwi Lair Violations. Certain irregularities in the execution of* pen-ion vouchers, in themselves penal offenses, have become so common throughout the nation that the chief of the pension bureau has issued a circular, directed to pensioners, and particularly to all civil officers who are authorized to executevouchers. The circular is as follows:. Sir:—Recent investigation hud by thi< bureau to ascertain the methods employed by public officials m executing pension vouchers, has demonstrated an almost total disregard of the laws and regulations governing the subject. It is clearly evidenced that t te illegal, lax, indifferent and perfunctory procedure now extaut has become a menu.-e to tinproper aud sale conduct of the affairs of this bureau, so far as it relates to the twyment of pensions, and special elorts are contemplated to correct the existin g abuses. While it is believed that many officials who assist in the execution of pension vouchers have no conception of tt eir criminal liability in the premises, it is equally certain that many others to secure an advantage in the numerical mimbe of their clientage, knowingly and wilfully resort to violations of the law. -To the end that the former class may profit by this notice this circular s issued. There ean be no justification in he prevalent haste and laxity existing n many offices. by which }>ost dating false -ertilication, false claim and stock witne-see have become a factor in the administnnion and acknowledgment of fusion vouchers. it is the intention of this bureau, where the fact* warrant such action, to institute criminal proceedings against the parties who indulge in these illegal and i rregular practices and tl&y are warned accordingly. By following strictly the instructions printed on each voucher, tin* matters complained of may be entirely remedied. Very respectfully, 11. Ci,ay Kvass. Col. D. A. Buckingham, special (amsioii examiner for the Evansville district, says that the most common offense against the pension law of vouchers is poet dating. A, pensioner receives the voucher a day or taro Ivfore the laws allow the execution to la-gin, and if he lakes oath that he is the Iverson paiued ou the voucher l»e!ore tue titue that the law specifies, he i- guilty of the offense technically called post dating, The puni-hmeut for this is $5(10 line ur three years’ imprisonment.

Another great discovery has been made and that, too,-by a lady in this Country: “Disease fastemied its ciutdses upon her and for seven years she withstood its severest tests, but her vital organs were maiermituvl and death seemed imminent. For three months she coughed incessantly and could not sleep. She finally discovered a way to recovery bv purchasing of us a bottle of Dr. King's New Discovery lor consumption, ami Was so much relieved on taking fir-t dose, that .'she slept a.I night, and with two bottles has been absolutely cured.
