Improvements in Piatt National
Park at Sulphur, Okla.
The department of the interior
proopses to spend $53,455.60 on im-
provements in the Piatt National Park
during the fiscal year ending June
30, 1913, if the amount requested by
the secretary of the interior is ap-
propriated by Congress. This is an
increase of $43,455.60 over the ap-
propriation for the current fiscal
year. The items on which hte amount
requested is to be expended are as
follows:
Sewer system, $35,000; new admin-
istration building, $10,000; revetment
wall, $300; new pavilion at Wilson
Spring, $140; improvements and re-
pairs at Wilson Spring, $50; new barn
for the park stock, $1,000; roads and
trails. $1,200; clearing away weeds,
thistles and underbrush, $200; sal-
aries, $4,800; miscellaneous, $765.60.
For the development and care of
the national parks the Secretary of
the interior has asked Congress to
appropriate the sum of $791,080.60,
an increase of $617,830.61 over the
appropriations for the current fiscal
year. The national parks constitute
ideal recreation grounds for thou-
sands of people, but their develop-
ment and use are seriously retarded
by the lacK of adequate roads and
trails, and until sufficient money is
appropriated for beginning a compre-
hensive plan of development the parks
will fall far short of rendering the
important public use for which they
are intended. The general public in-
terest in these pleasure grounds is
shown t>y the fact that in. a list re-
cently issued by the Department ot
the Interior 390 magazine articles on
the parks are enumerated. It is the
intention of the department to make
the principal places of interest in the
parks more accessible, to render trav-
eling more comfortable by sprinkling
hte roads throughout the rdy season,
and to guard the health of the trav-
eler by the installation of proper wa-1
ter supply and sewerage systems. The
responsibility for the future conduct
of the national parks nrfist rest with
Congress, but the Department feels j
that the financial needs of these res
ervations should be clearly presented I
to Congress in the annual estimates.

It carries hundreds of thousands of
spores of disease. Next year these
spores, if allowed to remain in the
orchard, will be carried by wind, rain
and other agencies to other trees, to
cause the growing and ripening crop
to rot.
Many years the peach trees blossom
freely, abundance of fruit sets and
grows to maturity, the peaches begin
to color and ripen, when all at once,
within a few days' time, they all be-
gin to rot. Almost before we know It
all of the peaches on all the trees in
the orchard have rotted. Where there
was prospect for a large and valuable
crop of perfect peaches now Is only-
more than worthless rotten trash, and
all has happened before we could help
ourselves.
The remedy for disease In the or
chard caused by spores is spraying and
washing with bordeaux mixture. This
mixture will kill and keep in check
nearly all fungous diseases if the
treatment is given In the right way
and at the right times.
Of course it is needless to make the
applications after the disease or rot
has once got under way, any more
