CONTESTS APPEAL OF SETTLERS
States Right to Land i'm Former In
dian Reserve Defended at
Washington.

OLYMPIA, May 15.In an effort to
save for the state several thousand
acres Of land selected in what was
formerly the Columbia Indian reser-
walton, in the Waterville land dis
trict, the state is defending an ap-
peal taken by the settlers. The state
selected the land for the State Agri-
Icultural college.
An act of congress of July 4 1884,
opened a portion of this reservation,
it being provided that it should be
open only to homestead entry. The
enabling act of February %, 1889,
granted the state the 100000 acres
for scientific purposes, and part of
the lands we're selected from the
former Columbia reservation
About fifty settlers have filed
homesteads on the state selections
and are attempting to prove up on
the land. The land office officials at
Waterville have decided the contest
il favor Of the state, and an appeal
has now been taken to the general
land Office at Washington, D. C. At
torney General Atkinson, who is
handling the case for the state, to-
day forwarded his brief to Washing
ton, ID. c., and expresses no doubt
that the states contentious will he

HILLSIDE WILL BE
BLOWN INTO RIVER
Milwaukee SEorknen Place Fifteen
Tons of Giant Powder i'll Charge
Near Thorpe.

ELLENSBURG, May 15.-Some
time this week workmen will touch
an electric button which will ignite
a fuse and explode fifteen tons of
giant powder buried in hillside
near Thorpe, where the Chicago, Mil
waukee C St. Paul railroad is blast
ing for right-of-way. For several
weeks laborers have been burrowing
in the hill, placing the kegs Of pow
der, and when the blast occurs en-
gineers say the whole face of the
hill will slide into the river.
This probably is the largest single
blast of powder ever exploded in
kittitas county, and it is regarded as
a distinct achievement Many per-
sons have declared their intention of
the blast from a safe dis
lance, and unless they are forbidden
will gather on an opposite hill. The
blast will remove more rock and
earth in thirty seconds than 100 men
could do with pick and shovel in
six weeks.

When to Spray.

(
Here's a good, practical plan for
telling when to spray:
Go out into your orchard, gather
some cocoons from the bark of your
trees, Or your neighbours if you have
none, Qaughter) place them in q
box covered with mosquito netting,
and set them in some dry place out
of the sun, and let them hatch. Watch
the box every day or so until you
see the young ''millers'' flying about
When you see millers flying about,
count on ten days more for their eggs
to hatch, and you will then be ready
to spray.
Millers live about six days.
They lay eggs when thirty-six to
forty-eigt hours old.
1t is important to use the Bordeau
type of spray on first application, so
as to be sure to get it in coarse
enough.
The Niagara gas sprayer is all
right if you get up your pressure.
This year we are making spray at
100 pounds. Later we imay sit
down to 125 pounds, but not for
the first spray. Effective work can
be done with a hand pump, yes, but
it must be thorough, at least four
good perfect sprayings.
And don't hire your work done.
do it yourself.
Above all, understand your pump.
Know how to run it.
Our experience elsewhere shows
one pound of Arsenate of Lead to a
little less than a barrel of water to
be a proper solution.
The Bordeau spray is all right for
spraying, first and last. But you
will have to hump to keep up. Of
course if you have a pump that don't
work well, you can use only one
hose: but then again you are losing
money on the labor question
Mr.. Littooy will have local charge
of our work here, and we shall let
you know through the papers when
we expect to come here again.
Now about moths again: let one
man collect for the whole community
for their appearance will be upon
the same date throughout the dis
trict. They won't develope below
sixtyfour or sixty-five degrees.
And don't think we have forgotten
about this field. Our reputation is
at stake, as well as your dollars and
cents, and it means just as much
to us. You can depend on it that
we are watching Your condition here
whether we are here all the time or
not.
Don't spray till we tell you.
You'll save money by taking this
advice. Well Tell you when it's
time.
Will Use Dust Spray Some.
We shall use the dust spray here
little this summer, though as a
rule / think the people have not
found that it is the best. But we
wish to figure out a comparison of
the costs of different treatments, us

tin "a that | told you to write for

Personally / don't like the dust

Later Spraying.

The only object of the first spray
is to fill the calyx cup with poison
The poison, if properly put in, is as
good in October as it is in May.
The object of all later sprays is to
put a ocat of poison around the apple
on the outside. About eight-tentha
OF the worms crawl in through the
calyx of the apple, and are taken
care of by the first spray This
leaves two-tenths to be taken care
of by the outside spraying.
