SALMON EXPECTED,

Yesterday was a rough day for fish
ermen and but few were out. Fish are
still very scarce, the season being poor
er even than last year up to this date.
The freshet which has caused very
high water for several weeks has seri-
uosly interfered with all fishing opera
tions. The unusual quantity of drift in
the river has been OF great annoyance
to glllnetters and has done much dam
are to traps. 1t is believed by fisher
men that there are vast schools Of sal
mon about the mouth of the river, wait
ing for warmer water before entering.
and that If the water continues to fall
as Il is now doing there viii be fish
enough in about two weeks to block all
the canneries on the river.

Is Better Than Two Afterwards--A
Chance To Profit BY An Astoria
Mans Experience.

1t is strange thing how people will
pnt away an opportunity until too late:
It's only the little things that go to
make up our every day existance; the
trouble is we don't pay sufficient atten-
ton to them. Backache Is a little
thing. Sometimes It comes after a
hard days work, or slight cold. 1t
will pass off, you say; It's only the
bad results Of overtaxlng my back.
1t isn't the fault Of your back but your
kidneys. The exertion or strain;ng
has interfered with their delicate mech
anlsm. You cali II back ache but It Is
really kidney ache, II the kidneys are
not relieved chronic disorders set In
and that Is where the little thing
should not be passed over. An Astoria
man has learned TO appreciate what de-
lay means.
w. r. Mcintosh. whose place Of res
idenGe Is at 593 Harrison Ave-, says:
For years I suffered very much from
lameness and soreness across the small
OF my back. To turn In bed gave me
painful twinges and when was not
working but simply standing around
there was constant aching over my
hips. The kidney secretions gave me
no end Of trouble. l often thought

MIA wash spray,
The california wash" for spraying
fruit trees has undoubtedly made 4
great leap into the favor OF eastcrn
and southern horticultural authorities
and promises to be much used this sea-
son.
Formulas for the California wash
have varied considerably, and as Il is
possible that conflicting statements
concerning its value may be due in
part to these variations in compost
ton the following description of the
wash used by the Illinois experiment
station will have its value. The mix
ture was made as follows: Fifteen
pounds of stone lime were slaked in a
kettle over a fire. Fifteen pounds of
sulphur were sifted or stirred in as
the lime was shaking, these materials
being boiled vigorously until the lime
and sulphur were entirely dissolved,
usually something over an hour, and
fifteen pounds of salt were then put in,
and the whole was boiled a quarter of
an hour longer. Enough hot water
was added to make fifty gallons, and
the mixture was sprayed while warm
through nozzle with a large cap fol
coarse spray. When the material
first dried on the tree, it gave the bark
a saffron yellow color, which changed
in twenty-four hours to a dull green
and then gradually faded to green
ish gray.

The following from an article in the
Cotton and Farm Journal by Wilbur
Bros, Leghorn and Plymouth Rock
breeders, is likely to bring hailstorm
of denunciation from a certain class of
breeders, says Farm and Ranch. Most
of them know the theory of an egg
type is true, while many do not even
know that much. But very few of
those who know the facts will admit
them, because they breed birds for
show purposes and not for increased
egg production. They breed for stand
ard points, and egg production has no
standing in the standard. Here is
what Wilbur Bros. say about egg type:
I'VE have in our long years of expe-
rience heard and read various theories
advanced as to whether or not shape of
Leghorns has anything to do with the
laying qualities of this noble fowl, and
we are convinced that it is just as i'm
portant and practicable to produce an
egg type hen as butter type cow, and
our experience, most especially with
the White Leghorn, has been in all
cases that those of our birds with long
bodies and necks, rather lengthy in
legs and deep down behind, are at all
times the most prolific. layers"

CHEESE PRINTS.

cheeses averaged very nearly fifteen
pounds in weight and were each di-
vided into fifteen prints. The dimen-
sions of each block of cheese were
lis by 1925 by % inches, each print
being 2.5 by 2.5 by 4.25 inches. The
cheese was pressed i'll an upright
frame, the carved board placed at the
bottom of the rectangular mold. The
bandage cloth was large enough to
cover the carved boards, the sides and
the bottom of the cheese. The ends
were brought together on the smooth
side of the cheese, the cloth being cut
in such way as to make smooth cor
ners
A metal hoop similar to the cheddar
cheese hoops, with fasteners, etc, it is
believed, can be made for this kind of
cheese so that horizontal gang presses
may lie used and Il number of cheeses
put to press at the same time. By carv-
ing both sides of the board it can be
used for molding two cheeses when the
board is placed in the press between
the cheeses. At the Wisconsin station
no difficulty was experienced in curing
these cheeses in the same way as ched-
dar cheese is cured. The bottom and
sides should be creased and the cheese
turned occasionally, although it should
not rest on the printed surface for a
very long time. By exercising a little
care in handling these cheeses during
the curing process, according to Pro-
fessor harrington, they can be kept
clean and attractive in appearance and
if well made from good milk will de-
velop an acceptable flavor.

According to Maurice Springer, o.
French writer on the subject, the en-
ergy of growth is closely related to
electric energy and may be identical
with it. At any rate, growth energy is
closely connected with the phenomenon
called osmosis- that is, molecular pres
sure due to differences of density in
adjacent liquid masses. Such molecu-
lar pressure in the cells of the body he
believes to be the phenomenon that I'm
derlies the multiplication of these cells
in growth, and osmosis has been shown
by experiment to be closely connected
with electricity. The writer referred
to believes that we shall soon be able
to measure growth energy as we now
do heat or electricity and perhaps con-
troll it so as to produce tall or short
