PAVING LET
City Council Accepts Bids of War
rem Construction Company in
Two Districts
WEST YAKIMA AVENUE.
AND PLEASANT AVENUE
These Two Districts Will be Paved
With Bitulithic Material at a
Cost of $2.17 Per Square Yard
and Local Labor Employed

Bids for the improving of two dis
tricts, the West Yakima Avenue I'm
provement district, and the Pleasant
Avenue Improvement district, were
let Monday night by the city to the
Warren Construction Co.. of Port
land, Oregon, that company being the
lowest bidder on both jobs, the total
cost of which will be close to $780,
900.
Before the adoption of the ordin-
ance approving these bids, Mayor
Schott asked Mr.. Olson, representa-
tive of the Warren Construction COM
pany, how it was that Salem, Oregon,
was getting the same work done for
s1.S5 per square yard, when it cost
North Yakima $2.17. or 80 cents per
square yard additional.
Mr.. Olsen explained that Oregon
cites backed their improvement
bonds, which is not done here, and
the consequence is that those cities
can sell at par or at premium; while
here the bonds are not worth, to east
ern bankers, more than csc. This was
difference of per cent. There was
a difference of 10 per cent in labor
Then too, said Mr.. Olsen, the quarry
and the plant Of the company is right
at the city limits and the cost of dis
tr'buting the material is much less
than here because of the freight we
have to pay on the material. Figured
all up, these differences Of cost, Mr..
Olsen said. totalled 61 cents, while
they had made the difference in cost
to the city only half that In reply
to a question by Mayor Schott as to
whether he would give local labor y
preference. he said he would hire
every local man fit to do the work as
long as there was a place to put him.
He would employ local labor so long
as 1t did not handicap the work. He
also promised to secure a bond in
North Yakima.
The bids for the West Yakima I'M
provement district follow: Warren
Construction Company, Portland,
$131, 1901. with a clause agreeing
to maintain the paving at a cost of
two cents per square yard per year;
Elwood Wiles Portland, s134,S98S1;
Pacific Bridge company, of Portland,
$133.935.S2
The bids on the Pleasant Avenue
Improvement district follow: War
rem Construction company, $16,6s1.45;
Pacific Bridge company, $16,932.64.
Both jobs include the construction
of concrete sidewalks, curbs and gut
tiers, with paving of bitulithic ma

MOREN'S OPINION
ON SPECIAL SESSION
Legislature Has Not Done Its Con-
stitutional Duty This
Decade

Hon. Walker Moren, among other
representatives and senators all over
the state who have been requested by
letter to give their views In regard
to an extra session of the Legislature,
said to the Herald representative yes
terday:

session if it can be decided before

confined to: otherwise l do not be-

governor to call such a session. II
congress. on reassembling, should
pass the measure giving us two new
congressman, It would be necessary
to reapportion the state in accord
ance with their action.
THE state constitution provides
that every ten years the legislature
should reapportion the state into leg
islative districts and this has not been
done for this decade. One of the i'm
portant measures that did not become
a law at the last session was the gem
eral road bill, and this should be en-
acted. If the work of the special
legislative session could be confined
to these matters. I would be favor
able to the calling of such a session "

1.-THE little mother who had spoken
before with such force now spoke
with pathos that was felt by all
present, as she said: "A mother who
is widow cannot take care of her
children as can a father She usually
has to work for her living and has
not the time for the intimacies or the
opportunity to teach and be with her
children as has the father Then there
are men down town who make it very
hard for that mother to keep her
children at home Judge Cavanaugh
has said: If there is anything worse
than a saloon it is the pool room
where the boy starts in an innocent
game of pool He sees the law broken
by the men there and he begins to
break the home laws and then he
goes down."
The closing remarks were not made
by a woman but by DR.. T. E. Webb.
who replied to Councilman Browns
question by asking: How many men
are possessed of such rare judgment
and wisdom as you have"

0RCHARD|STS FEAR
NOCTURNAL COTP|T
Three Methods for Killing it Ad-
vocated, One of Which Is I'm
practical Though Humorous

The "cOtpit," a pest of the peach
tree which first appeared in the Yak.
ina valley two years ago, is reported
nv ranchers to be making its first ap-
pearance for this season in the or.
chards on the north scope of Not
Hill.
The ''cotpit" is a green worm abou,
half an inch long which attacks the
trees at night. During the day il
stays in the ground at the foot Of
the trees and after dark it crawls
up the trunks and eats the hearts OF
the buds and flowers and strips the
leaves.
Since the devastation of the pest
first became apparent two years ago
various means of Kidding the orchards
of it have been tried and horticul-
turists have adopted two methods:
A strip of cloth bound around the
trunk of the tree a few inches from
the ground at night will be found in
the morning to have protected the
branches and foliage and will be
thickly covered with the worms. The
strip can be removed and immersed in
a pail of hot water to kill the pests
il has collected Another method is
to spread a mixture of molasses and
bran on the ground around the foot
of the tree which catches the worms
and prevents their escaping into the
ground in the morning
The pest is said to have damaged
several orchards in the Yakima VAT
ley since their appearance here and
"rchardists are viewing their coming
this season with alarm.
The 'cotpit" little green worm
Nocturnal habits, which makes its meals
from the hearts of peach buds, ma
king its yearly debut in orchards near
North Yakima. The cotpit, accord
ing to those most familiar with it's
habits, conceals itself in the ground
during the day. awaiting darkness to
sally forth and attack the fruit
trees.
TO kill it three methods are advo-
Gated by our leading horticultursts;
one of the most common methods is
to tie a chicken to the base of each
tree and hang an electric light over
it to keep the chicken awake. The
cctpit, noting that its watch says half
pest nine. starts for its dinner.

the way and eats it.
Another method is to cover the
ground at the base of the tree with
