ABOUT THE TRANSFERRING

some estimates of the discharge of the Yangste- -Kiang and or the amount of sediment 1t carries have recently been published by Prof Konrad Keil- hack Of the Berlin School of Mines. who visited the river in September. 1913. when the stage of water was unusually high From measurements of depth made at Wusung, Nanking and Han kow, and estimates of width and ve- locity, this authority concludes that the discharge below Eankow (6S5 miles rom the mouth) amounts in time of flood to 319 million cubic feet a second. The annual mean is estimated at 1A million cubic feet a second. Filtration measurements made at the mouth. near Wusuns, taken in conjunction with the above figures for discharge, indicate an annual transport of sediment at the average rate of 37,40O pounds a second, or @ total of 5S4 million tons a year.

In Response to the Request of Various Organizations the Sheriff Has Ordered Patrol of North Central Avenue

Persons motoring on North Central avenue or the nearby country roads will have to observe the motor vehicle laws according to advices received from the sheriffs office. As q result of a peti- tion signed by four rural women's 8 clubs motor policeman is now patrol ing that vicinity and motorists will have to have a care" in regard to speed, lights and signals. There nave been many complaints from that district, that the law has not been enforced in a manner to safeguard persons and property on the public highways.

 Near Phoenix

Think of it, you motor fans; old field, Burman, Cooper and Resta all on the same track. and up against it to go faster than they ever have before, in order to win the matched race be- tween the four scheduled for next Sat urday on the Haywood Speedway
 If that isn't a race that ought to set the speed fans wild, why several crazy speed eaters around this town are missing their guess. For ages, or rather since the spot light has been hitting tehese four dust developers sport promoters who have had a good speedway handy have dreamed of get ting d few of the best drivers in the world together for a little old match race. Introduce into this race, pro- fessional jealousy q good purse and get the contestant betting among themselves, and there sure ought to be something doing It should by all means be the fastest bunch of miles that have ever been pulled off in the history of the American racing game
 On Monday, Oldfield without even tinkering his car in the least, went oul anu went around lHe two fnlle oval. for five laps at the rate of 1lO.16 miles per hour This betters Resta's time of 100 miles per hour. made after the Wop had done considerable mon- keying with his carburator and look ing after a number of other things more or less.
 Barney is going to be at the wheel of the De Lage. of which so much has been talked and written about He claims that for pure downright speed stand upiveness and several things that most people are not so well ac- quainted with, this car has 'em all skinned. Resta will have his foot on the throttle of the Peugot, with which he has done such grand work during the past year or so.
 As usual the Master Driver is over full of confidence. He says neither Cooper or Burman will bother him, but he allows in the same breath that he is going to-ake a slant out of the corner of his eye at Resta

 Do the plays look different to me as an umpire than they did as a player? Well. l guess l must admit they do. No, l don't think an umpire can see q play any better than the player him self, no matter where it is, but I do maintain that if an umpire tries to fig ure out plays ahead of time and is on the move with the ball, he is just as good a position to give | decision as the player who is making the play"

 Hugh Jennings says of Wallace:
 He has the necessary nerve and knowledge for the job, but lacks exper- fence He works IS though he were in there to stick as long as he did as a player"
 Ty Cobb casts this one at Rhody:
 'Wallace doesn't look like a polished 'ump' right now, but another season should wear off his newness. He has always shown us players enough for us to feel confidence in him wherever hes placed. Wallace takes his position with proper seriousness and dignity that goes a long way with the men he handles"

THE LIVE STOCK MARKET

Report from the Union Stock Yards
Co., North Portland, Oregon, for
the week ending May 90.
Receipts for the week were: cat
tie 1878; calves 9; hogs 1881 ;
sheep 5000.
While the cattle run for the week
was not heavy the demand seemed
somewhat lighter and prices sagged
at the start. Good light killers sold
at $3.50 to $3.50; COWS $6.35 to
5000.
After a week of small declines.
8 cents was the best that could be
realized for choice light hogs. Many
porkers of inferior quality went at a
slightly less figure. Prices declined
to SITS and the market closed at
this quotation.
A fair run of 300 sheep came
forward during this week. Year
lings sold at 81 90 and ewes at
$3.50. $8.25 was the high spot for
lambs this week.

GRAIN SHUTS AND TREATMENT

Those Arc Among the Most Injurious
Diseases and Cause Many Losses.
prepared by New Jersey state expert
rnent station]
The smuts are among the most In
furious diseases Of our grains and are
the causes of heavy losses in New Jer-
sey and throughout the country.
This very common and well known
disease occurs on the growing oats at
the time of heading, causing the de-
struction Of the grains and more or
less of the chaff and the formation OF
powdery black mass. This black
powder Is composed of the spores Of

due to this disease Is very large, fire.
quently amounting to 10 per cent OIL
more of the crop. The loss for the en-
tire United States has been estimated
at $2O,OOOO0O per year.
| The fact that the spores of the fun
gus are carried on the outside of the
healthy grains makes it possible to
use a treatment which will kill the
spores without injuring the grains.
The most convenient treatment is with
formalin Cor formaldehyde), which can
be purchased from the druggist at 70
to 80 cents per pound or in large guam
titles much cheaper. One pound in hf-
ty gallons of water will be SUFFICIENT
for fifty bushels of grain. Spread the
grain on clean floor and sprinkle or
spray thoroughly with the solution
Shovel the grain into pile and cover
with canvas or burlap for from six to
twelve hours and then spread out to
dry. The drying process may be has
tened by mixing with air slaked lime,
which may be removed by the tanning
mill
This disease Of the wheat Is very
similar in general appearance to that
of the oats. but it's life history is some
what different. 1t spreads from dis
eased to healthy plants at time of flow
ering and penetrates the young grains.
The fact that it is carried within the
grain instead Of on the outside and
that it is impossible to distinguish the
healthy from the diseased grains,
makes the formalin treatment unsatis-
factory. By far the most satisfactory
and economical method of preventing
the disease is to secure seed from un-
fields, but when it is desira-
BILE to maintain particular strain of
seed modification Of the Jensen hot
water treatment can be used. This
method as devised by Freeman and
Johnson Is as follows: Clean the seed
and soak for five to seven
hours In water at SO to 72 degrees E.
Put the grain In loose bags or wire
baskets holding about one-half peck
each for further treatment Use two
galvanized iron tubs, holding from
,wenty to forty gallons. filed with wa
;er Tub No l should be kept at
ranging from 40 to 120 |
legrees E.. and tub No at about 126 |
% 129 degrees E. Plunge each bag or |
basket into tub No. for one minute
Ind then into tub No. 2 for ten min
ties, keeping the grain well stirred dur
ng the entire time. Two men can
reat about one bushel of grain per
lour. The seed can be dried on barn
loor, but If the weather is cool 1t
hould be protected from frost
The slowness of the hot water treat
nent makes it impracticable to treat
ny considerable amount OF grain.
However. the grower will find it prac-
icable to treat small amount of seed
