STRAWBERRY PEST
MENACES VALLEY

A serious pest heretofore unknown
in the valley was located during the
past week attacking the roots of
Strawberries. This pest is known as
the eel worm and causes a great deal
of injury to garden and trucR crops
in many sections of the country.
The present infestation was found
in Strawberries and was observed
while setting new plants. The pres.
ence of eel worms on roots of plants
causes knotty condition and un-
natural swellings, and in cases of
serious infestation will kill the crops
attacked. The only satisfactory way
of handling this pest is to keep the
ground in clean cultication, not even

PINK SPRAY RECON-
MENDATIONS MADE

The pink spray for the control of
scab should be applied in the case of
most varieties some time during the
present week. The experiment sta.
tion recommends the use of lime-sul-
phur diluted at the rate of 1-25. This
is a very important application and
should be applied by all means. In
orchards where mildew control must
be taken into consideration it would
be well to add either atomic sulphur
at TIE rate of six pounds to 100 gal
Ions. or iron sulphate. Mildew is
showing rather conspicuously in in.
tested orchards at the present time
and its control should be undertaken
at once.
To satisfactorily control mildew It
will be necessary to make at least

WATER DAMAGE Is VERY LIGHT
Continued from First Page.)

The year around there are many
waterfalls along the Columbia river
highway. During the springtime you
cannot keep count of them. Great sill
very volumes plunge down the cliff
sides. and In other palces the falls are
no more than white spray ribbons.
The inspection party of last Friday
took dinner at Cascade Locks. Big
slices of ham and eggs. baked potatoes
and coffee in one Of those inch thick
cups. But luncheon was never more
satisfying.
Following the meal the car was driv-
en- as far as possible toward the Multi
nomsh line. the party walking the re-
naming distance. At several places in
the deep woods beyond Cascade LUcks
earth slides have covered ever the deep
snow of the past winter. Water has
driven its way under these slides, and
the perfect arches of natural culyerts
are seen.
The huge slide at the end of the
Hood River line was the cause of much
amusement last Friday. Members of
the party stated that they considered
IL advisable to write to the Mutlnomah
court and suggest to them that the de.
bris be left intact and that the high.
way be constructed around il.

All growers who are contemplating
setting berries should examine the
rootlets of their plants very carefully
and avoid the planting of any infest
ed stock, thus checking its distribu
ton.
Growers should also be on the
watch for the strawberry root weevil,
another very serious pest of this i'm.
portant crop. Little white grubs will
be found feeding on the rootlets. In
case infestations are found to occur,
they should be reported to the fruit
inspector or to- the experiment sta.
ton that recommendation for their
control may be given.

Will Vote on Sewer and
WaterwOrks Bonds at
Election May 2.
MEANS BIG GROWTH
Will Spur Expansion and
Wealth of Tulsa's
Lively Superb.

Tulsa's thriving suburb, Kendall, is
going after improvements which, If
secured, will place its name in the
list of progressive towns of the coun-
try. Every man, woman and child
in Kendall is expected to be for the
waterworks and sewer bonds In the
sum Of $4,000 that will be voted
upon in that town May 2.
Elsewhere in The World appears
the call for the election on that date.
and the progressive spirit, evidenced
by this call, is unusually laudable.
kendall's development has been
truly marvellous and one of Tulsa's
joys The cause of it is an unsur-
passed location for a town. and Ken
dali college. With only nature to
invite them, $500 souls have
founded their homes in Kendall.
They have braved the vicissitudes OF
no modern conveniences, and have
builded suburb to the city that is
a model and Is appreciated by Tul-
sans.
Lkcncd to Evanston.
This effort of Tulsa's neighbors
to improve, reminds one of the
struggles Of some other suburban
towns in this country. Evanston, ILL.,.
just out OF Chicago, had its start in
tAactly tne same manner as Ken
dali. A college was established there
by the NJ. T.. church, Northwestern
university. For years Evanston strug-
gled along, having hard time to
maintain the corporation. Then the
spirit of progressiveness took hold,
and waterworks. sewers, lights, paved
streets. etc, followed in quick sue
cession, with the result that Evan
ston grew so rapidly that she had the
provdrbial mushroom in a night
looking like its roots had been pulled
out of the ground, and in a short
time had five thousand population.
There are dozens of suburbs around
Chicago. that had like growths under
similar conditions, and around St
Louis, New York, Boston-and even
right here in our own common
wealth. Two towns out Of Oklahoma
City - Capitol Hill and Britton -
have been developed in exactly the
same manner. Waterworks and
sewers started the growth
The expense to the taxpayers will
be infinitesimal as compared to the
enhanced value of real estate. and
together with the earnings that are
predicted for the plants from the
users and reduction in insurance the
expense of them will be more than
offset, and a dividend declared. In
other words, 1t is safe to assert that
the earnings of the plants, together
with insurance reductions, will more
than pay the expense of them.
