FRUIT INSPECTOR AD-
VISES SPRAYING NOW

In going over the orchards find
many who have failed to spray with
Arsenate of Lead, for codling moth,
To have clean fruit you must spray
according to directions. All who have
sprayed should do so again as soon
as the rain is over as the rain will
wash off the primary application.
The fruit crop is not large this year
and all who can put clean fruit into
the market will get good price for 1t.
While through neglecting to spray
they cannot market their fruit at all.
Watch your trees closely for signs OF
blight. There is considerable of 1t
in the country, small cases, but you
easily eradicate this pest by keeping
strict watch over your orchards.
Gut out all cases well below the ef-
fected part and burn them. Be care
full not to inoculate healthy branches
by cutting into them with infected
knives.
In spraying for codling moth, use
.2h pounds of Lead to so gallons Of
water and apply thoroughly.

WANT SCENIC BOULEVARD
DOWN ROGUE RIVER

Il wish we could interest every
body in plan to construc5 a scenic
boulevard down the river on this
side," said City Councilman H. L.
Herzinger to a representative of The
Courier, and he continued.
1--WE are not utilizing our advant-
ages and natural attractions. II
some other towns had what we have
here In the way of this river the
people would see to 1t that 4 boule-
ward ten or a dozen miles in length
was built along its banks. That is
what we should do, the city starting
the work and the county taking 1t
up.
What a fine thing it would be
ii an auto road was running along
the river ten miles down. Then the
home people and visitors could take
real 10y spin over 1t, swing around
into the other road on the return.
en- sure the property owners down
the river with holdings bordering on
the stream would gladly cooperate
1t would increase their property In
value many fold and at the same
time give them royal road into
Grants Pass.
The matter has been discussed In
formally in the council, and at ne
distant day we hope to be able tc
take some definite steps to create
boulevard from the bridge down Il
the city limits. Then we hope thu
county commissioners will take ac
tive interest. In this way Grantl

would be greatly benefited. W.
