up in the United States supreme
court here today.
The contempt proceedings grew
out of the L S. indictments against
Congressman Frank Buchanan OF
Illinois and other members of La
boris National Peace council in con
nection with alleged German bomb
plots said to have been hatehed in
the United States.
Congressman Buchanan. charging
irregularity in the actions of Mar
shall in handling the case before the
federal grand jury, got a congression-
al investigating committee appointed
TO come to New York and probe
Marshall's acts.
The investigating congressman, dis
pleased with what they considered
Marshalrs snippy attitude toward
them and their investigation, hailed
him before the house of representa-
tives for contempt.
Marshall sought a writ of habeas
corpus before Federal District Judge
Hand in New York to prevent the
house compelling him to appear and
answer the charge Judge Hand dis
missed the habeas corpus proceeding
after a hearing on its merits. Mar
shall has until midnight today to per-
feet an appeal to the u S. supreme
court from he dismissal of his action
by Judge Hand. Marshall's petition
stated that he had serious doubts as
10 the jurisdiction of the house in
haling him before it for contempt.

WINS GAME FROM
THE KANELA PLAYERS
DEFEAT Is ADMINISTERED BN
SCORE OF II TO 3-RETURN
GAME WILL BE PLAY
ED AUGUST %.

MEACHAM, Ore, Aug. 15-The
Kamela Invincibles suffered crush
ing defeat at the hands Of the Mea-
cham ball team, August 49, 1916,
when the two teams clashed on the
Kamela diamond (?J and Pride Of
the Woods boys ran up the score, Il
to 8, much TO the utter CONSERVATION
Of the Invincibles Gin name only).
Just here we would add a word about
the diamond It was certainly an
uncut gem ana poet would de-
scribe 1t as a "nelG with verdure
clad"
However, 10 numerous causes may
be ascribed the deieat oil our oppo-
nents, among them beng the absence
OF their manager and mascot Wetzel
and then, too, their heavy hitters
were unable TO find the tricky balls
which Pitcher Ulrica served 10 all
corners.
However, in due justice to Kamela
we will say they played right manfui-
ly after the first inning when d pune
ture was put in their inflated pride.
But aside from the friendly rivalry
of the game. Meacham will not soon
forget the kindly treatment accorded
to their players an6 the rooters who
accompanied them A return game
will be played on the Meacham
grounds, August 27th.

HUCK ALLOWS TWO
HITS; NORMALS WIN
Defeat Jackson BurfOrdville
Sluggers by Score of
10 to O.

A pitcher named Huck and catcher
named Shy opened the 1916 baseball
season in the Cape for the Normal
School yesterday by holding the Jack
son-BurfOrdsvillc sluggers down with
two hits.
The Normal nine won 10 to 0. The
game was played at Fairgrounds Park
and was but practice game for the
NormaliteS. The affair lasted but
seven innings and in that time the
Cape school lads clearly showed their
superiority.
The Jackson Burfordsville team was
headed by Troy Gladish and they had
several excellent players amongst
them, but the Courleux formation
showed results Of practice and out
classed the visitors.
The pitching of Huck was clearly
the feature of the game and it was
almost equalled by the support that
his teammates gave him. The Nor
nal boys made but three errors, while
the visitors made five boobies.
The lineup and score for the game
follows:

SPRAY PEACH TREES,
URGESL. R. JOHNSON
Normal Expert Explains When to
Make Spring Attacks on
Pests.
Spraying Peach Trees.
BY PROF. L. R. JOHNSON.

By next week it will be time to give
the peach trees their most important
spraying. The proper time TO 10 this
is when the blossom shucl has dropped
completely off the little peach and left
it exposed without any covering. 1t
is then that the curcu!io begins to cat
holes in the little fruit and lays eggs
which hatch out worms.
These worms at once begin to eat
their way into the peach and in time
causes it 10 fall off. Worms that are
hatchCI later in the season are to be
found in the full grown fruit and
cause it 10 ripcn prematur2Iy and IN
evenly. The curcUIio is one Of the
most destructive fruit insects, for il
attacks the plum and cherry and to
some degree the apple and pear. The
stone fruits, however, are It's fav0rites.
The time to SPRAY The cherry, plum
and apricot is when their fru.s has
shed off The s!ucl;, iust Is in the case
Of the peach; but rs these traits bIcs-
som al different times, So lie time Of
spraying must be determined by care
fully watching TO see whom the young
fruit is a. the proper stage. The in
cisiOns Oh punctures Of the curculio

l to Of water, is also employed on
the apple and pear when weakened
down to l to 20 gallons water; but it
IS too strong for the peach, no matter
how much diluted. The best spray for
fungus diseases of the peach-the
worst of which is the brown riots
the self-boiled lime-sulphur. We make
it thus:
Stake lbs. of lime in barrel;
before lime begins to Stake, pour over
it lbs. of sulphur Use hot water
for Stacking, but cold water will do if
the lime is strong. Stake same as for
whitewash and stir sulphur we'll into
the lime
The heat of the lime cooks the sui
phur to a degree that is not strong
enough to hurt the peach leaves. As
soon as lime is fully slaked, add water
to cool it so the sulphur viii not cook
too long and become too strong. Add
water until total amount is 80 gallons.
L : then ready for use. Before mix
ing, the sulphur should be crushed
through sieve to break up the luup=
SO that il viii dissolve better in the
lime. This mixture should be strained
INTO the spray barrel, Tor the lime and
sulphur are full of small particles that
clog the spray nozzle.
10 every fifty gallons of this mix
turc there should be added , lbs. o.
arsenate Of lead with which TO poison
the cUrculio. The lime-sulphur is not
a poison and does no harm to most
insects. Ii is applied for the rot ara
similar diseases. If you cant Scr any
reason prepare the self-boiIed mixture
then spray anyhow with the arsenatc
of lead, for if the curculio is killed
there will be little room for the rot
spores to get entrance into the peach
through the wounds made by the cur
culio.
Ter this H.:.-.E. Weigh out lis.
lead arsen&te and dissolve it We in
a quart OF Two O. water before putting
it into he ar."y barrel. See that the
spray is we'll stirred in the barrel be-
fore beginning to apply it.

WOOD ASHES NOW
HAVE ACASH VALUE
Dearth of Potash on Account of
the War Makes Refuse
Valuable.
(By PROF. L. K. JOHNSON.D

A great deal of coal is consumed in
the towns and therefore large quaint
ties of ashes are made and have to be
disposed of. The question is some
times asked if these ashes have a fer
tilising value equal to that of wood
ashes. The answer is no; they con-
tain practically no fertility. They are
sometimes used as a mulch around
young trees and berry bushes to keep
the ground cool and moist and some
times plowed under to help loosen up
q tough piece of soil. The war in
Europe has raised the price Of potash
very high, for most of it comes from
Germany. On this account wood ashes
are coming to have a cash value. A
Cape saw mill recently sold a bed Of
ashes that in former years it would
have been glad to give away.
