Fruit growers here are consider
ably agitated over the fact that big
| consignment of trees that was recent
ly received by local nurseryman
were found to be infested with San
Jose scale When they found that
the famous apple orchards of Hood
River valley were menaced by the
presence of this dread pest they in
sisted that prompt action be taken to
avoid the possibility of such calam-
ity. County Fruit Inspector G. R.
Castner was notified Of the presence
of the scale and examined the trees.
He found them in diseased condi-
tion and State Horticultural Com
missioner R. H. Weber of The Dalles
was communicated with and the nur-
seryman ordered not to permit their
disposal.
Came From Willamette.
The trees are said to have been re-
ceived from an extensive grower of
nursery stock in the Willamette val
ley, who admits that the trees show
ed indications of scale, but says they
We're dipped in a solution which is
supposed to kill any infection of this
kind and that they had been passed
upon by the state inspector for that
district. Before prohibiting the sale
of the trees Commissioner Weber
placed several of them under a pow
erful microscope and says he dis
covered the presence of several live
scale. He states that as one female
will propagate 100000 young in a
season the trees if planted are liable
to infect all the orchards in the val
ley. None of them will be sold and it
is expected that they will be de-
stroyed.

Writing from the Russian famine
district, DR.. Kennard, who was sent
by the Society of Friends to investi.
gate conditions among the peasantry,
draws an appalling picture of the
suffering. After calling attention to
the urgent and immediate needs of
funds, he says: "This is the worst
famine Russia has known. No less
than 20, 600, 600 people throughout the
southeastern provinces cannot live
without aid to see another harvest,
and | may say that this figure has
been not only approved by the zem-
stovo organization but also by the
government itself Funds will be
needed to the end of July TO feed all
these millions and then the harvest
will bring relief, but there are many
hundreds of thousands TO whom the
harvest will not bring relief, fol
they have neither land nor cattle.
The few COWS that are in existence
are in such pitiful condition them,
selves that they are useless for milk
ing purposes. The result is thai
babies and young children are beins
forced to eat the coarse black breat
and the indigestible cucumbers.

After July the whiskey drinker in
Iowa will be compelled to pay just a
little more for his daily portion,
while the liquor dealer must conform
in every respect TO the state ard
national pure food laws. After that
date every man who sells liquor will
be compelled TO label the whisky. If
it is compounded or imitation whisky
not only the receptacle must bear a
label to that effect, but the bottle
from or in which it is sold must like
wise be labeled Not only that but
the label must contain a list and
