How To Kill Plant Lice.

Plant lice are playing havoc fwitt
rose bushes, currents and various gar.
den crops at this season, and A. L.
Lovett assistant entomologist at the
Oregon Agricultural College, has pre-
pared directions for recognizing and
getting rid of the pest.
On current bushes the work of the
lice at present appears as irregular
gals on the leaves, discelored a deep
reddish hue On the under side of
the leaf are found many small, pale
green, sOft-bodied insects with their
beaKs inserted in the plant tissue,
busy sspping the plant juices. On
the roses the lice are found about the
stems of the leaf and flower buds
Later the flowers will be misshapen
and smaller than normal.
A contact spray should be used, and
its effectiveness depends entirely on
its being used thoroughly in such
way that it actually reaches the body
of the insect. "Black Leaf 40",
commercial preparation for sale in all
railroad towns is perhaps the best for
lice. Directions are on the can. 1t
may also be used diluted in 800 parts
of water. with half pound of soap
added for every ten gallons of the SOL
ution. Whale oil soap is best, but
common laundry soap will do. 1t
should be shaved fine and dissolved in
hot water first.
Another solution is the kerosene
emulsion spray. Balf pound of hard
soap is dissolved in a gallon of boiling
water, and when removed from the
fire two gallons of kerosene is stirred
in. A hand pump is best for mixing
it, the solution being drawn through
the hose and back into the container
sgain until it is creamy white. After
it with fifteen gallons of
water, the plants should be wet with
it, special care being taken to reach |
the under sides of the leaves, where
the lice are found.

RIVER MYSTERY is
EASILY EXPLAINED

The mystery of the horse and buggy
in the Umatilla river at Thorn Fol
low has been cleared up and no hu-
man life was lost in the accident. The
drowned animal and the buggy be-
longed to Harry Mcbride, the Athena
liveryman. and both were lost when
Tom Gilkey, the driver, and another
man, attempted to ford the swollen
stream and were carried into deep
water by the swift current, The two
men and one of the horses attached
to the buggy escaped with their lives
after battling with the waters, but
the other horse, becoming entangled
in the harness and unable to free it
self from the buggy, sank to its death.
In conversation over the telephone
this morning, Mr.. Mcbride stated
that the two men were en- route to
Meacham and, coming to the river,
thought they could make the cross
ing in safety but misjudged the swift
ness of the current with the result as
already known. He states that the
horse which escaped was the one
which James H. Gwinn of the Round
Up association, rode during the show
last fall.

CLAIM MADE THAT COUNTIES IN OREGON
CAN NOW VOTE BONDS FOR ROAD BUILDING

If a Salem story which appeared in
the Portland Oregonian of Saturday
is correct, then the county bonding
amendment is now operative and
counties may proceed to vote bonds
for constructing good roads without
faiting for further legislation. The
story under Salemdate line is as
follows:
The amended section 10 of Article
IL of the state constitution, as passed
by the people of the state at the last
general election in 1910. is sufficient
in itself to allow counties TO vote on
the question of bonding for good
roads and that the only place that
Jackson county failed in bonding for
$1,500,000 was the form of proceed
ure, rather than from the necessity of
further legislation, are some discov-
cries that have been made at this
late day in connection with the opin-
ion of the supreme court in the fa-
nous Andrews versus Neil case.
Tackled at the end of Justice Bur-
netts extensive opinion in that case
We're three very brief specially con-
curing options from Justice Bean
and Mcbride and Chief Justice Eakin
or the majority of the court.

LOCAL HIGH SCHOOL
5 WINS 3 STRAIGHT

Having won al three of the games
which they played while absent, the
members of the Pendleton high
school basketball team returned yes
terday in triumph from their tour of
Union county. AS a result of their
victory over Union high school Satur-
day night by the score of 40 to 20,
they have set up claim for the
championship of eastern Oregon
which no other team can dispute.
The game with the Union school,
the boys characterize as the easiest
of the three At no time they say was
there any danger of defeat and their
opponents would have been kept
to q much lower score If they mad
have extended themselves. In this
game, Captain Jordan again starred.
shooting five baskets from his posi-
ton at guard besides being big OBJ
stacle to the success of the other
team.
Despite the account of the game
in the La Grande Observer, which
account was written by the coach OF
the defeated team, the boys declare
they outplayed the high school of that
city Friday night in every depart
ment of the game. Until the last
few minutes of play, they claim, they
kept their opponents score down to
nine and the remaining ten points
gained were secured only as result
of a relaxation upon Pendleton's part
when victory was assured.
The NJ. l. A. team was the hardest
one of three, they declare, and the
32-S1 score would indicate as much

minutes of play when the La Grande

can see a way to make their eX-
penses.

COM MITTEE PLEASED
WITH POWER SITE
Find Conditions Better Than
Were Represented
BY Strain

Declaring that the representations
made to them by Assessor c. p. Strain
and Engineers Kimbrell and Coyle at
the last council meeting are true SO
far as they are able to ascertain seven
of the city aldermen returned last
evening from Milton near which city
they investigated the power site up
on which they have an option. All
are now in favor of thorough inves-
tigation and at the next council meet
ing, the special committee will prob
ably recommend the employment of
competent hydraulic engineer to
survey the site and to render his ex-
pert opinion.
In the party which examined the
site yesterday were Councilmen Dyer,
Kirkpatrick, Brock, Cole and Shar-
on, comprising the special committee,
Councilmen Montgomery and Ell,
City Engineer Kimbrell and Walter
Bowman, photographer. Arriving at
Milton they were Joined by Howard
Evans in whose name the filing Is
held, and Engineer Coyle of that city.
Conditions Encouraging.
according to Chairman Dyer or
the special committee, the party found
conditions even more encouraging
than reported to them. The site for
the proposed power plant is only
about two miles out of Milton up the
Walla Walla river while the point Of
intake is but three miles farther on.
Bearing out the statement that the
accessibility of the site is remark
able feature of the site and one which
would greatly reduce the cost of in
stallation. Mr.. Dyer stated that they
found a natural grade between the
site of the power plant and the point
of intake and that this grade is so
gradual that travel over it is easy.
1.-The line surveyed for flume runs
along the county road for more than
mile" he said, "and in only two
places does it cross any valuable land.
The plant site is on the river but is
sheltered behind a small bluff so that
danger from a washout amounts
to nil Down this bluff the water
would have a fall of 100 feet, accord
ing to the engineers, and it is my
opinion, that 1000 horsepower is a
