AUTHOR OF "HOW lO Sl

HOW WELL OFT
R OSS McLEOD, Flinders Park, South Australia, was in a hospital with
tuberculosis where he found there was an unwholesome honour
attached to being a pretty bad case.
He says every time he thinks of it now it sickens him. But at the
time he found a certain amount of glory in it, because he was one of
the venerated ones. In the first place he had a year’s start on most of
the patients. In the second place both his lungs were
affected; and he had a cough that shook the rafters
and left him exhausted. For final measure, the germ
had a grip on his throat and had temporarily taken his
voice, and he was advised that unless he gave it com
plete rest by not talking at all, the larynx would be
destroyed irrevocably.
One of those cheerful fellows who was forever giving
the happy smile and bright word got on his nerves so
much he began to detest the sight of him.
Then one day this chap found he had to be in a cradle
for two years, and not allowed to move. The same day
he got this bad news his only child was stricken with
poliomyelitis, in a severe form.
As he was shifted out of the ward he broke into a smile and called,
fjr’Good luck chaps Look after yourselves.”*
Ross says he lay staring at the doorway a long time. His eyes filled
with tears of admiration. Then he said to himself, “My God, I’ve got
troubles I But take a look at that guy. He’s smiling!”
Suddenly it occurred to him how well off he was. He was in the best
hands possible; his financial affairs were all right; his family was
well, and at least he could move around in bed.
Immediately he relaxed. Worry and despair fell away like husks on
a ripening almond. That week, for the first time, he held his weight.
Gaining in hope and confidence, it was not long before he started to
put on weight.
Though he didn’t speak for two years, and spent three years in a
sanatorium, he now has his voice and is able to work for a few hours
each day. Some of those he envied and resented have never made

Oak Leaf Blister
Attacking Trees In
Newberry District
A disease commonly known as
oak leaf blister has been increas
ingly conspicious on oaks during
the summer, according to E. L.
Middleswart, District Forester,
Newberry. This is especially true
on street and yard oak trees
and it has rendered the trees very
unsightly. Not much work* has
been done on the blister recently,
however, the disease has been
noted in much lesser extent for
several decades.
The oak leaf blister is caused
by a fungus. It is very closely
related and similar to the fungus
causing peach leaf curl, in view
of this similarity, control mea
sures used on the peach leaf curl
have been used experimentally to
control oak leaf blister.
The spores of fungus live, over
winter on the bark of twigs and
on bud scales. In the spring
these spores are washed by the
rain onto the new leaves. As
the leaves develop the fungus al
so develops, causing blisters to
distort and discolor the leaf and
killing portions or all of the
leaf. Heavy infection will take
place in temperatures from 50 de
grees to 70 degrees. Temperatures
above 70 will kill the spores, thus
little spread takes place during
summer months. The disease is
rarely ever fatal to a tree; how
ever, severe attacks for several
years in succession greatly weak
en the tree.
The common control measure
for the oak leaf blister is to
spray with Bordeaux mixture. This
spraying must be done during the
winter or early spring before the
buds begin to swell and grow
The entire tree must be sprayed,
which means that controlling the
disease would be difficult in
large oaks.
