Fire Losses in Hood River Numerous

We have had more losses this year to
date than in any year heretofore, Haz-
ards of fire are increasing; especially are
they greater this time of year. We find
many instances in both city and country
where no fire insurance is carried. Al
ways after the fire there are few Mo-
pie in the immediate neighborhood who
think of fire insurance, and some take
out policies, But why wait for the fire,
it might have been YOU who burned out
instead of your neighbor.
In the Valley your barns are full OF
new hay, your blooded stock is in there
at nights, Why take the chance? Take
ont policy today. Reed & Henderson,

POMONA GRANGE 0P-
POSES STATE BONDS

Hood River county Pomona grange,
10 regular session at Mclsasc hall
Wednesday of last week unanimously
adopted a resolution opposing the pro-
posed SlO,OO0.000 permanent highway
bond issue. The grangers expressed
a grave fear that the funds, when the
time for distribution came, would lead
to strife and community rivalry.
The members of the grange also
dipped into county affairs, ana a reso-
luton, urging the county court to abol-
ish the toll on the road leading through
the forest reserve to the Upper Valley.
was adopted. The grangers also by
resolution petitioned the county court
to place complete and comprehensive
signboards at all highway intersections.
Because of the confusing signs, "
said A. !. Mason, leading granger,

they reach point above the Mount

the peak is in plain view, seemingly
about six miles straight ahead of
them. sign pointing in directly the
opposite direction to that in which they
are travelling, says, Six miles to Mt.
Hood. The Mount Hood store and
postoffice, of course, are meant. But
the travellers, not familiar with the
land, are made to believe that differ
ent road from the one on which they
are travelling leads to the base of the
mountain.
Members of the grange also resolved
to petition the Mount Hood Railway
Co. to reverse the schedule now main
tanned. At the present time a mixed
train is operated one way each day,
leaving here in the morning and re-
turning from Parkdale in the after
noon. The grangers maintain that the
service is of no benefit to farmers, who
would patronize the system literally
If they could visit the city on the train
and return home the same day.
The Upper Valley people were hos
pitable in their entertainment of the
visiting grangers. Two such dinners
as were served-an old style dinner at
noon and new style in the evening
were never served in Hood River val
ley. C. E. Spence, master of the state
grange, was present and delivered an
address. Mrs. Albert Vail, leading
officer of the state grange, was also
present to give talk.

FORESTRY BUREAU
DISTRIBUTES RULES

Posters containing the rules that
must be observed by all campers and
picnickers have been printed for those
portions of the Columbia river highway
that lie in the national forests and will
be distributed along the highway in a
few days.
They have been printed by the For
estry Bureau. and contain rules that all
fires shall be built in the places pro-
Vided for that purpose, there shall be
no tree cutting, all rubbish shall be
cleaned up and other similar regula-
tions.
Officials of the Forestry Bureau wish
to impress the public with the idea that
all these spots of government property
along the highway are for public use,
and persons using them for camp sites
must clean up before leaving.

WORK FOR THE FALL.

Gardens are often not rich enough to
produce satisfactory results, and fall is
Yather the best time to apply the requi-
site stable manure. A good covering
Of this is to be supplied and plowed or
dug under, going as deep as may be
convenient. The ensuing six months
will put the manure in good condition
for next seasons crops. Flowing again
in spring will be beneficial in making
the soil loose.
Fall plowing Of land infested with
white grubs, wire worms and cutworms
is urged by Professor J. G. Sanders of
the College of Agriculture Of the Uni
versity Of Wisconsin as control for
these pests and as protection for next
summers crops. Thorough disking or
narrowing, in addition to plowing, dis
turbs and crushes the winter cells of
these pests in the soil and exposes
them to their enemies and the severe
winter weather. 1t is especially urged
that all cornfelds in which the corn
ear worm appeared last. summer. be
plowed and thoroughly narrowed to
kill the larvae which hibernate two or
three inches deep in the soil. Proper
crop rotation is undoubtedly one Of the
greatest factors in the control of many
field crop pests which cannot be well
controlled by remedies applied after
the insects appearance in harmful
numbers. 5,@@4a IA ;5Bs4si

FROSTED CORN SILAGE.
How Farmers Can Save Corn Which
Fails to Mature

How Farmers Can Save Corn Which
Fails to Mature.
Prepared by United States department Of
agricultural
The fact that corn if frosted and i'm
mediately put into the silO will still
make good Silhge may prove of great
advantage to corn growers in certain
sections where the lateness Of the
present season may prevent the corn
from ripening or reaching the glazed
stage before the first frost, according to
the dairying experts Of the department.
Those who have not been intending to
make silage Of their corn should find
this information very useful in the
event that corn cannot be harvested in
the ear.
The best corn silage, of course, is pro.
duced where the corn can be put into
the silO after it has reached the glazed
stage. In an emergency, however,
where the corn has not reached the
glazed stage before frost. it is better
w f7A'S A. GIL thS SLo"liiE tAAA1S pOSS1OlC.
even If it has to be put into the silo
Immediately after the first frost Every
extra growing day after the corn has
reached the milk stage adds very much
to the solid constituents of the Silage,
as in these last few days there is a
very important transfer of material
from the roots into the stalk and ear
Of the plant. In fact. the corn plant
when it reaches the milk stage contains
only about G5 per cent of the dry mat
ter that it contains two weeks later.
Aside from the increased feeding val
ue. the corn when it has reached the
glazed stage contains a much larger
percentage of starch and smaller
percentage of sugar. The high proper
ton of sugar in immature corn is one
of the main reasons for the high acidity
in the silage made from it. The amount
of acid in the silage is found to be
very nearly in proportion to the sugar
present in the corn.
Where it has been necessary to delay
until after the first frost to cut the corn
for silage it is essential that the plants
be not allowed to stand frosted in the
field. They must be cut and put into
the silo at once. The chief effect of
the frosting, it will be found, is to re-
duce somewhat through evaporation
the water content Of the plants. In
packing frosted corn, therefore. it will
probably be necessary to add some Wa
ter to the blower as the corn is being
run through the cutter

Nitrate of Soda on Meadows.


On an old meadow which has not
been properly fertilized top dressing
Of nitrate Of soda is almost certain to
show very marked results. The farm
er is likely to be so enthusiastic over
the showing made that he at once con-
cludes that nitrogen is the one factor
needed to make his hay crop a prof
liable one. Right here lies the danger
While the first application Of nitrate
Of soda may show these marked re-
suits, it is not by any means safe to
conclude that nitrogen is the only ele-
ment Of fertility needed. Repeated ap-
plications Of nitrate Of soda may soon
result ir no apparent benefit and even
result in a final condition worse than
the original condition. The first appli-
cation Of nitrate Of soda shows such
marked results because there is
marked deficiency of nitrogen in the
soil, but there is sufficient of the other
fertilizing elements, particularly phos-
phorus and potassium, to balance the
nitrogen used. The increased crop
yields from the use of nitrate Of soda
make an increased drain upon the
available phosphorus and potassium Of
the soil. No effort being made to re-
place these elements thus removed, the
time very soon comes when no re-
sponse is received from the applica-
tion Of nitrate Of soda because the
phosphoric acid and potash have been
depleted or, in other words, are the
limiting factors. AS a rule, where nj
trate of soda is used as fertilizer, it
is safe principle to use in connection
with it some form Of phosphorus and
potassium, having in mind permanent
results rather than a temporary in
crease due to the nitrate Of soda.
