SIX-LEG WEENIL
ON THE ALFALFA

Washington. June 1G.-There is now
Ia 6-legged weevil threatening alfalfa
in the intermountain states of the
West. introduced at a single spot
rear Salt Lake City 10 years ago, il
has slowly spread throughout the
northern half Of Utah, including 3
Of the most productive counties. ana
has taken a foothold in Idaho and Wy
oming, near the Utah line.
The weevil, after spending the win
ter IN the fields about the roots of the
plants, deposit large numbers of pale
yellow eggs in cavities made in the
stems with their beaks. The little
green worms" which hatch from
these during spring and early sum
mer, cluster upon the fresh shoots
of alfalfa and feed, becoming mos
numerous about June 1. They destroy
much Of the first crop, injure the
quality of what remains and compel
early cutting to prevent total loss.
The actual damage to the first crop
is not far from 30 per cent Of its value.
Upon the cutting Of the first crop
the larvae gather upon the bit of food
which is afforded by the fresh shoots
and destroy them as fast as they ap-
pear. This condition lasts until the
normal harvest time of the second
crop, SO that it Is a total loss. The
damage to the first crops usually
amounts to about one-half the annual
yield.
\ valuable method for preventing
the injury to the second crop Is brush

the effectiveness of the dust treatment
and that most of the insects die long
before they're smoJbered By the dust.
The essential factor in killing the wee
vil is the heat absorbed by the soil
from the suns rays.
To Kill the weevil the surface of the
field to be treated must be dry, free
from clods, cracks and vegetation. To
Get the best results. however, the sky
must be clear and the day warm. IN
der these conditions when the soil
reaches the necessary temperature Of
20 degrees all stages Of the insect
are killed in less than minutes.
The second crop Of alfalfa is then
free to GROW TIE effectiveness Of
this treatment however. is directly
proportional TO the thorouehness with
which the above conditions are COM
piled with. If the soil is not in good
condition, it must he cultivated before
dragging. The great objection to this
method Of fighting the weeyil is that
it requires much cultivation of the al

"Love in cottage built for two is

lot of happiness. But to an actress
who feels as hopeful for the future
as | do-well, l couldn't resign my
self to dreaming through a contented
sort of existence.
That is the excuse pretty Agnes
Vernon gives for breaking the heart
of her sweetheart, Abe Deuce, by jilt-
ing him when he refused to listen to
her remaining in the movies.
She told her story to Pauline Bush,
who is leading lady in the same movie
company and who just bubbles over
with ambition.
A few weeks later pretty Pauline
was married to Allen Dwan, who used
to direct her work years ago when
she played opposite Warren Karrigan
in western pictures. Although Mr.
and Mrs. Dwan are on their honey
moon at present, they will not be alb
sent long for their work will not al

Local Firm Quoting Very
Low Prices on Lumber
and Other Materials
MANY PACIFIC FACTORY-BUILT
HOUSES BEING SOLD.

By far the lowest prices on lumber
of all kinds, fence posts, bridge lum-
ber, sash, doors, paint, hardware, as
bestos roofing, plumbing fixtures. etc,
are quoted by the Pacific Portable
Construction Company at $40 Main
street. For instance, good merchant
able resaWed Redwood can be pur-
chased there for as low as $22 per
thousand, and 2X12 Oregon pine for
bridge lumber and Oregon pine OF
other dimensions for onlv $50 per
thousand. The secret of these aston
ishingly low prices is due to the fact
that this firm buys material in tre-
mendous quantities, The consumer
buys direct from this firm, thus cut
ting out all middlemen's profits. Ii
you want to save the greatest amount
possible on such material, you should
have the Pacific Portable Construction
Company figure on all your estimates.
This firm reports that the demand
for Pacific Factory Built Houses is
rapidly increasing, especially here in
the valley. To be able to save from
20 per cent to 80 per cent by buying
one Of these coZy, attractive, convent
ent homes is a thing many people
would think impossible, but that is
what this company is doing all the
time, and for this reason has grown
to be one of the largest builders of
homes in the West. A beautiful Bun
galow Book, showing dozens of de-
signs and fully illustrated, will gladly
be piven free of charge to any one
desiring an inexpensive home who will
