LOCAL ORCHARDS
SUPERINTENDENT ALLEN
ADVISES HOW TO TREAT
New Psychological Disease Cannot
Be Cured by Spraying - Affected
Parts Must Be Cut Away-Bulletin
Upon the Subject.

That the orchards in the vicinity of
Pendleton are seriously threatened by
the pear blight, commonly called the
fire blight, is declared by R. w. Allen.
superintendent of the experiment sta
ton at Hermiston. Mr.. Allen was
here last evening and made an in
spection of several of the orchards
just west of the city. He found the
blight to have affected some of the
trees in those orchards and apple
trees as we'll as pear trees are en-
dangered
The fire blight is a psychological
disease and it is one which has been
difficult to fight. Being a bacteriol-
ogical disease it cannot be fought
with spraying as can the fungus dis
eases At this time the only known
method of treating for the blight is
to cut away the affected parts and
burn the cuttings.
According to Mr.. Allen, orchardists
should at once look over their trees
to see if they are not affected. Where
the blight prevails it may be easily
detected by the fact that the leaves
and twigs will be dying. Frequently
the blight girdles a twig and causes
the same to wither and die. In many
instances a waxine substance exudes
from the twig. The affected part
should be cut away and the incisior
should be made several inches below
the part affected.
AS the blight is a bacteriologica
disease the knives used in cutting
away the diseased parts of tree:
should be sterilzed. Unless they are
sterilized after every insertion an or
chardist may serve to spread tn
blight rather than cure it.
That the experiment station at Cor
wallis recently issued a bulletin deal
ing with how to treat the blight i
stated by Mr.. Allen and he recon-
mends that orchardists who are i
doubt as to how to fight this ne
trouble write and secure a copy O

cording to a divorce complaint filed
here today, pretty Mary Zeigner Of

ditionally by Raymond Albright,
and she is now regretting both the
wooing and the conditions.
The complaint alleges that when

be his wife, he said he would try
married life one year, and II, at the
end of that time, he did not like
it he would quit. Miss Zeigner &C
cepted him, and also his conditions,
but he took advantage of the latter
and deserted her on the first an
niversary of the wedding, saying
married life. at least with him, was
not to his liking.
She was i'll at the time and her

when she returned to her people
he would be relieved of her doctor
bills and also of the expense of her
burial in the event of her death.
Evidently the husband tired Of
