The local cannery began operation
Tuesday, canning about 750 spring sal
mon and few sockeyes. The springs
are unusually large, many of them
weighing over fifty pounds each. o.
casionally there is one large enough to
pack full case of forty-eight 1-pound
cans, but as rule two salmon of this
variety are required. Very few SOCK
eyes are running as yet and not, a great
many are expected Before the middle of
next week.
The force employed in the cannery is
small as compared with the number
engaged in former years, owing to the
introduction of labor-saving machin-
cry. A butchering machine does the
work of several Cinnamon; a can-top-
ping machine displaces several more
and two patent filling machines do the
work which formerly gave employ
ment to many women and girls, who
made very good. wages. At the big
cannery in Falrhaven the filling is still
done by hand. The machines do the
work very rapidly, but not so well.
The cans are not SO uniform in weight
as when filled by hand and the fibre
of the fish is more broken.

The Dakota creek hatchery, eight
miles from Blaine, for which provision
was made by the late legislature, is
about ready for opefation. For the
present the hatchery will be in the ma
ture of an experimental station, the
idea being to try and hatch the SOCK

cry. This season a. large crate will be
used to bring the fish from the traps in
the Gulf of Georgia to the hatchery,
where they will be held In the retain
ing ponds until they are ready to
spawn. The crate is "a feet long, 10
feet wide and feet deep and will be
towed back and forth between the
hatchery and the traps by the fish
commission steamer.

BORERS IN TREES
How to Keep Trees Free From This
Destructive Pest

How to Keep Trees Free From Thif
Destructive Pest
Many orchards have suffered heavy
and unnecessary loss from the attacks
of borers. Many growers do not notice
that there is anything wrong with the
trees until the leaves turn yellow and
begin to fall in midsummer, Says Amer
lean Gardening. AFTER this stage has
been reached there is little hope for the
tree and it dies before frost. 4.
"a glance at the tree will be suffi.
cient to see that the bark on the trunk
is dead and black. in Irregular spots
and lines. Just beneath the dead bark
is the borer's burrow filled with worm
dust. The borer is too familiar to re.
quire description. He works up and
down the side of the tree and finally
burrows to the center. When two or
three borers get into the same tree the
trunk is grdled and the tree is killed.
In many cases the borer works on only
one side OF the tree.
"If large spot of bark is killed, the
bark and wood begin to rot and are
soon filled with a mushroom growth
This mushroom breaks through the
bark of the tree and develops the fruit
ing portion on the outside Of the trunk.
The fruiting part is white and resem-
bles that which is seen on rotten logs.
If the tree dies the rot is then supposed
to be the cause OF it's death. The rot
may hasten the death of the tree, but
"a tree that is eound and free from blem-
ishes is very seldom if ever attacked by
this rot. -
"The best thing to do is to keep the
tree free from borers and other injuries.
The land should be kept free from
grass and other weeds and we'll culti-
vated. Good clean cultivation is worth
more than all the washes and dressing
that can be applied to prevent borers.
A good wash, however, is often worth
many times what it costs to apply and
will do much toward preventing the
attacks Of borers and other insects.
The Oklahoma Station says that one
pound can of concentrated lye dissolved
In two or three gallons of water makes
a very good wash. Another good wash
can be made of one-half pint. tar, one
half pint carbolic acid and two gallons
soft soap.s These washes can easily be
applied with an old whitewash brush
or a swab made of old rags-tied on the
end of stick. These washes should
be applied two or three times to the
trunk and large limbs during the
spring and early summer.p

Someone indulging a propensity for

If as a race he is excluded from the
franchise, and it formerly thought it
must be given to him as a race. The
only difference now between the north
and south is on this point of keeping
the suffrage away from the negro as
a race. Literally the new laws and
\ constitutions of the south do not dis
franchise the negroes as a race, and
| the number who will eventually be al
lowed to vote will be large. But vel
the educational test will probably not
| settle the question, because if all the
negroes in the south were well edu-
| Gated and well-behaved today there
would still be a strong prejudice
among white men against negroes in
Office. If the negro had gradually,
from the start, been admitted to the
exercise of the franchise this preju-
dice would not have been so strong
as it is, because there would be no
| specter of the horrors of a rule of
ignorant blacks to c~onjure up from the
past.

WAR is EXPECTED.
Conditions in Macedonia Are Not Fa-
vorabIe to Peace,

New York, March 1S.-Reports from
Macedonia are so contradictory that
all forecasts are unsafe, says the Lon
don correspondent of the Tribune.
Some advices from Sofia point to a
transition period of four or five
weeks. 1t may then be discovered
that reforms have been ineffective.
and that the indignation of the Bull
garians cannot longer be restrained.
A crisis at the end of a month is evil
IDENTIFY expected in Sofia, as well as in
Belgrade. Sofia at present is the hot
bed of intrigue and unrest. Every
stranger is under police surveillance,
and he is watched by spies from hour
to hour. Turkish, Bulgarian and Rus
sian officials are employing informers,
and are receiving reports of what is
going on among the refugees and e
olutionists. Wa in the Balkans could
not be averted if the pressure of the
Russian and Austrian governments
were removed for a single week.
