TWO VERSIONS

On the occasion Of a recent visit
to Pasco, Mayor Lockerby became
engaged in a joshing contest"
with Mayor Sylvester of that city,
in the course of which Sylvester
said:
Mayor, I heard a pretty kid
story the other day"
Let's have it," said the Mayor.
1T seems" said Sylvester, that
one of our Pasco families removed
to Kennewick recently. The night
before the family was to leave this
city, the little FIVE year-old girl, at
tached to the family in the capacity
of daughter, kneeled before her bed
and at the end of her prayers adj
ded, Good bye, God, we're going
to Kennewick. F"
L heard of that before,' said
Mayor Lockerby. although the
way you tell the story creates an en-
tirely wrong impression. What the
little girl really said was: Good, by
God! We're going to Kennewick. !"

OPEN RIVER SERVICE
WILL Be CONTINUED
Conference Decides that Little Boost
ing by Commercial Clubs Will Make
Service Self-Supporting

The service rendered by the Open
River Transportation Company on
the upper Columbia and Snake
rivers will not be discontinued.
This was the decision reached at
Portland Saturday night as the re-
suit of a conference between the
officials of the boat company and
representatives of the Commercial
Clubs of the Inland Empire. Re-
Gently the company issued state
ment to the effect that it contem-
plated withdrawal of the upper
river service due to inadequate sup
port extended the line by shippers.
The result of the announcement was
a call for special meeting of the
Pendleton Commercial Club, to be
attended by representatives of other
commercial clubs of the territory
tributary to the rivers. This meet
ing, held September IL, resulted in
the appointment OF a committee to
visit Portland to talk the situation
over with the officials. The con.
ference committee comprised R. c..
Beach, of Lewiston; E. M. Sly, Of
Kennewick; H. M. Dryer, of Una
tilla; w. L. Thompson, of Pendle-
ton; and w. S. Smallwood, of Port
land.
At the conclusion of the confer
ence Saturday night, it was announ-
ced that Portland interests would
settle up all existing Indebtedness
of the company, while all the terri
tory effected by the river rates will
be urged to work for tonnage for the
line and be asked to assume one
half Of any deficit which may arise
in operation of the boats. Twenty
five percent more tonnage than has
been received in the past will make
the line fully self-supporting.

realize as much as they ought, but
those who have the facilities for stor-
ing with which they ought to be
provided will, without much doubt,
make big money this year.
The Republic does not think there
is any reason for being discouraged
with the fruit business. It has al
ways believed. and often said. that
there ought to be less fruit speciali-
zation and more general farming
here, but it is as firm as ever in the
belief that good varieties of fruit,
intelligently handled, will always
pay here, and will in the long run
justify the prices at which we hold
our lands.
The work of organization, which
has been we'll begun, must be con-
tinued. To complete organization
only can we look for final solution
of the difficulties that beset us as
beginners. This paper has no doubt
that fruitgrowers fully appreciate
the fact, and that as time goes on a
system will be perfected here which
will enable the growers to collect
their fair share of the profits off
their products.-Yakima Daily Re-

The CORN EAR WORM

The corn ear worm is active at
this season of the year. Professor
A. L. Melander, Entomologist of
the State Agricultural Experiment
Station, at Pullman, describes the
methods of combating this pest as
follows:
This species is commonly known
as the cotton boil worm in the
southern states because of its de-
structiveness to the cotton plant.
In the east is a pest of tomatoes,
boring into the ripening fruit and
destroying this. In the west the
species is principally corn infest-
ing insect, and is particularly fond of
the ears of sweet corn. The adult
is a brownish miller whose wings
expand nearly two inches. The
miller is attracted to light and may
be trapped by suspending lantern
over tub of kerosened water placed
in the middle of the corn field. The
young worms when Matched, eat
their way through the tassel end of
the corn and proceed to feed on the
kernels. When fully grown they
leave the ear, drop on the ground,
where they remain beneath the sur
face over winter, coming out the
following spring as the brownish
millers.
The main treatment for the pest
is fall blowing on the principle that
a thorough stirring up of the soil
will either mash the worms or dis
turb them so that they die during
the winter. There is no spray treat
ment applicable, although some
people claim to have had fair sue
cess by lightly busting Paris green
over the tasse] end of the newly
formed ears. 1t is possible when
growing corn for home use to open
the end of the half-grown corn and
if any worms are noticed, to pick
them out and destroy them.
Although fall blowing has proved
successful in meeting this pest,
some growers Of corn have claimed
that the insect has been present in
their fields the first year the ground
has been set to corn.
