Railroad Ave. Improvement is Aim

Plans are under way for the perma-
nent improvement of Railroad avenue.
The city council discussed the proposed
Improvement Monday night and City
Engineer Henderson has been asked tc
make estimates of the cost of the
work. The county will be. asked to as.

Abutting property owners offer to
hard surface the street if the city and
county will grade it.

Spraying Suggestions Given
BY Leroy Childs-

In most sections of the valley
pears are now in the proper condi
ton to receive the spray for the blis
ter mite. Lime-sulphur 1-12 should
be used. In order to control the
blister mite, it is very essential to
get the spray on at the proper time.
But little success will be attained in
making the applications after the
leaves show.
Some growers have been applying
lime-sulphur during the past few
days. To get the benefit from the
semi-dormant spray for the control
of apple scab the first leaves should
be showing before the application 10
made. No protection so far as scab
is concerned will result from spray
ing buds which show no unfolded
leaves.
The continued rains are still de.
laying the application of the oil.
From the present development of the
fruit buds in the sections which are
infested with leaf roller, 1t appears
at the present time that 1t will be
safe to use oil for at least a week.
In the case of earlier varieties per
haps this should be limited to a
week

LATE SEASON WILL
RETARD ALL CROPS

From present indications, according
to orcharists, the strawberry crop will
be even later than last season, when
the first carload of berries was shipped
June 3, two weeks later than in nor
NAL seasons. The berry plants as yet
show but little growth, and because of
the recent wet weather growers have
had no opportunity to cultivate their
tracts. While few scattering plum
trees are in blossom in the city, cherry
and apple trees are very backward.
Apple blossom time in the Hood River
valley comes usually about May /.
The trees will not be in full bloom this
year, according to estimates, until
about Nav 10.

The spring run of steelhead salmon
has begun in the Hood River, and local
nimrods report excellent catches dur
ing the past several days. r. Evinger

ut is entirely too early for good
fishing" says Earl Franz, who with his
father and brother, respectively E. A.
and Edgar Franz, and Geo. W, Thom-
son, mOtored Sunday up the White
Salmon river on fishing trip.
''We struck foot of snow at point
about Is miles from the Columbia. In
places the roads were dusty. But there
were many mudholes, and we found
several places that were frozen over.
We didn't catch any fish,"
E. j. Middleswart was displaying a
fine catch last Saturday afternoon.

Columbia Rises

After a total rise of five feet for the
week, the Columbia at this point, on
Sunday came to a standstill, due to the
cool weather that has been prevailing
over the mountains.
Local river men have received infor-
nation from up river points that lead
them to expect almost as heavy vol
ume of water as last year. During the
past several weeks heavy SHOWS have
fallen at the higher levels. Men from
Upper Valley communities say that
the snow in the forests is now deeper
than it was on the same date last year.
