The knot is first ln evidence ash slight swelling of a branch. This may ap- pear on an apparently normal twig lbecomes apparentt in the spring after covering of a velvet-like pile which on this velvety surface disappears. giving way to a darker colour and by of immature -winter spore bodies. Sacc. The spores, which mature in the Niagara Peninsula about March, are known to initiate primary infec- tion on branches of normal plums and cherries soon after. The summer stage which matures in May and June is also thought to produce infection sometime later. Infectionsioccurring during one year are usually not ap- pamnt as knots until the following spring when growth begins. ' practice are as follows: -1. The removal of wild plums and cherries adjacent to cultivated orch- ards; 2. Pruning ,_out knots from branches of cultivated treesalready affected: 3 Spraying to prevent new infections. - _ ~ _ A ' _ In pruning out knots from cultivat- ed trees the branch should be out sev- eral inches below the external evi- dence of the knot: careful pnsning should be carried out early in the spring and also late ln ins snli in or- der to remove the knots prior to spore formation. These knots must then be burned, otherwise spore formation will continue even though excised Lam the tree. ' The following applications of,Bor- deaux have successfully controlled the disease: I _ ' 1. During late March or early April; 2. when buds are beginning to swell; 3. When new knots begin to show the velvety coating; 4. One or two subsequent applications at two week intervals may be necessary in _somc` years. . rmal.

Chapman Dies In Hospital After Two Days’ Serious Illness.” Henry Daniel Chapman. known throughout Eastem Canada as a lum- berlnan and authority on forests, died yesterday at a local -hospital in Ot- tawa, after a serious illness of, two days' duration. Although Mr. Chap- man had been in poor health two months, his death was quite unex- pected. Mr. Chapman was born at Dorf chester, N. B., 62 years ago and was a member of one of New Brunswick’s oldest and best known families. _He spent his early life at' Moncton. From the beginning of his career, Mr. Chapman took great interest influm- berlxlg and soon mpde it his life- work. / ' He became superintendent of the L. M. Palmer Company, which has large lumber interests in Northem New York state. Later, he camo to the Ottawa district and was connected with the Canadian Cooperage Comp- any, which had mills at Cisietta and Sand Point. ` In 1915, Mr. Chapman entered the Government service and was appoint- ed to the forestry branch, Department of the Interior. where he was em- ployed at the time of his death. He was considered one of the ablest-of- ficials in the branch and'hi.s work was characterised by sound knowledge and thoroughness. ' Of a quiet dispmitioh.
