The development of the knots begins during May and June, when. upon the bran- ches that are oneor two years old, a slight swelling will be noticed and the outer bark will crack, showing the green layer beneath, which will soon take on a russet appearance. Upon tinues and. by autumn, the surface will be of a. black color. covered with innumerable minute pimples, in which the Winter spores of the fungus will be developed. These will ripen in Feb- mary and thus the disease will secure another start. The old knots are dry and hard and each year extend both ways along the branches, until they reach a considerable size. the surface on olive-given mold will By carefully examining the trees during the early summer, the knots can be detected in the early stages of their development, and if at once cut off and burned, further spread of the disease will be stopped. In removing infected branches, the cuts should he made, if possible, 3. tot or more below the knots, in order that the diseased portions may lfe deszroyed. When the knots are uzpon th; trunks or main barnches of small trees, where it would be impossible to cut them off without destroying the trees, the diseased tis- sues may be cut away and if the wounds are painted with linseed oil, or tincture of iodine, the danger of stoo- uing further growth will be prevent- ed. \Vhile the remoaal of diseased branches is the only remedy that can be depended on to prevent the spread- of the disease, yet if the trees are thoroughly Sprayed with lzordeaux mixture, it will be impozsible for the Spores to obtain lodgment iupon the heaithy branches.

It is a suprising fact. Not for any one consecutive twelve months during the time mentioned have we been wholly and entirely at peace with our. turbulent neighbors, says the Lon- don Daily Mail. “For the north guns alwaysâ€"quiet- lyâ€"but always guns.” So wrote Kip- ling. many years ago, long before his was a name to conjure with. or editors scrambled for his work at so much a word. The pregnant sentence is part of a little advisory lecture. supposed to have been delivered by one Viceroy to his successorâ€"Lord Dufferin to Lord Lansdowneâ€"and, like much that Kip. ling has written, there is more in it than meets the eye. To a sheltered peOple, whose only knowledge of war is gained through the medium of the newspaper, it means little or nothing. To soldiers guarding the long northern frontier it means much; to Indian statesmen it means England’s first experience of the mysterious and inaccessible regions from whence came these devastating hordes was not encouraging. We sent an expedition through the Khyber Pass to Kabul. Sixteen thousand men there were, including camp followers, and 15,999 of them left their bones under the Afghan snows.

Began early in October. THE SURVIVORS \VERE GLAD enough to disperse to their homes. On October 18, 1864. a grand durbar was held at Lahore by Sir John Lawrence. No fewer than 604 native prices were present, and the most extravagant professions of loyalty were in ulged in by all and sundry. Nevertheles not six weeks afterwards, the bloody Bhu- tan war broke out, and we were forced to evacuate the important fortress of Dewangiri. In 1867, four days after Christmas day. the fierce Wagheers of Kattywar planned a desperate night attack on our camp. Luckily, we were prepared for them, and in the fighting that en- sued the tribe was practically exter- minated. This drastic lesson did not, however, deter the Bazotees. another fanatical frontier tribe, from raiding us in a similar manner. the following October, and, incidentally, meeting a similar fate. The year 1872 was made memorable i in Indian border annals by the Kooka ; outbreak; and this was followed. two -. years later, by an important expedi-i tion against the powerful Duffla tribe. ‘ undertaken to exact reparation for the , almost innumerable outrages they had I been guilty of on the northâ€"west fron- : tier. Apparently, however, the lesson . did not impress the neighbouring clans. for the very next year the Jowakies, an Afridi tribe, reverted to their old i tricks, and continued the diversion i with variations up till 1877. .Then,t after prolonged fighting. they were! finally defeated and dispersed, their4 chief stronghold, Jummu, being storm- ’ ed and burned. It is worthy of note that this, as well as several other minor frontier troubles. all came to a head in that year. ~ THE AMZEER.

Yet only one year later, in 1878, the Afghan war, which cost us £24,000,000 and be- tween 20,000 and 30,000 men, broke out. After this big blood letting the tribes seem to have quieted down some- what. Nevertheless. there was the usual little war with the W'azaris in 1881; and in 1884 a miniature army was marched into the Zhob valley. to punish the Kakar Pathans tor their raids into British territory. In 1888 occurred, the bother with Sikkim. which, after considerable fighting, was annexedâ€"“ declared a British feuda- tory State.” is the diplomatic phrase. A. little later in the same year the important Black Mountain expedition was set in motion, and made one of the most brilliant little campaigns in the history of Indian frontier_war._ _ The punishment inflicted would not. however. seem to have been sufficiently severe. for in 1890 another similar ex- pedition had to be undertaken against the same tribes, and this again was followed by a third in the spring of 1891. Coincident with the second of these, fierce fighting was also in proâ€" gess in the Zhob Valley; and while the third was forming the famous Mir- anzai Valley expedition was putting in some excellent work against the 01'- ukzais, who were assisted by an as- sorted rabble of Pathans and Afridis.
