THEY CLAIM NEUTRALS
NOW FEED GERMANR
Then Buy From the United States
the Supplies Needed to Re-
place Exports.

Washington.-Evide that Ger
many is obtaining vast quantities of
food from the European neutral coun-
tries has been presented to the Uni
ted States by Great Britain for the
American governments guidance in
determining an export control policy.
Much of this. the British statistics
purport to show, is replaced by the
neutrals with imports from America.
From Scandinavia and Holland, the
British information sets forth, enough
fat is going into Germany to support
100000 soldiers, virtually the entire
army of electives in the empire. Ger
man imports from these countries, it
is declared, reduced to calories will
equal the total ration of 2,500,OOO
troops, the size of the German army
in the west.
German purchases of foodstuffs
abroad are made through the govern
ment department Of the interior
which has organized a special divi-
sion to buy from the neutrals.

General Trade Conditions.

Bradstreet's says: Busting activ-
ity characterizes the leading indus
tries, particularly iron, steel, lumber,
textiles, coal and shipbuilding and at
the same time governmental buying
in numerous lines is still spreading.
Crop news is better, higher tempera-
lures have made for improvement in
retail trade, railway cars are in rela-
lively better supply, prices for some
food products tend downward and
payments in the larger branches of
enterprise are good.
Withal, wholesale trade is relative
ly slow, recorders going to jobbers are
exceptionally light conservatism re-
specting buying for future delivery
is in evidence, luxuries ana fancy
articles are practically neglected, a
sign that economizing is widely prev
alent and discussions regarding gov
ernmental control of prices makes
for some uncertainty, while the i'm
minent calling of men for military
duty certainly restricts buying of sea-
sonal apparel
However, losses in what might be
termed ordinary lines, this character
ization being used in its most COM
prehensive sense, are largely, if not
wholly, offset by governmental buy
ing, and this diversity in the ebb and
flow of things obviously makes for
the working out of establishments.
But despite the giving of ground in
some lines, resulting in the transfer
OF interest to other things, the pro-
ducing units of this country are over
/ sold and for months ahead at that
Scarcity of labor is still marked

A CURE FOR GARDEN
PESTS is ANNOUNCED
PuyaIlup Experiment Station Tells
How to Prevent Damage to Pro-
duce-Poison for CutWorms.

The western Washington expert
ment station at Puyallup has an
nounced that the following are the
recognized remedies for flea beetles,
cutworms and root maggots, which
are attacking garden crops:
Flea beetles-These are little black
jumping beetles, which often eat
holes in the foliage of tomatoes, pc.
tatoes, cabbage, beans and sometimes
other garden crops. The plants should
be thoroughly sprayed with Bordeaux
mixture 4-4-50, which acts as a re-
pellant, the beetle avoiding the spray
ed foliage. This Bordeaux mixture
not only wards off the flea beetles
but also acts as a fungicide for pota
to and tomato blight, leaf spots and
other troubles.
Cutworms-Cutworm are plump
worms one to two inches long, vari
ously colored with shades of green
ish-yellow, gray or brown. These
worms are most active OF night. They
cut off young plants, such as toma
toes, cabbage, beans, etc, just at OF
below the surface of the ground. The
usual method of combating them is
to spread poison bait about affected
plants. This bait is made as follows
Coarse bran .-.....-........-.-.........15 pound:
White arsenic or paris
green ounces
Salt ounce!
Syrup or brown sugar.. pound
Lemon extract ....-.......-1 teaspoonfu
Water to make a crumbly mash.
About a teaspoonful of this poison
bait is spread around each plant
Root Maggot-These are small
white maggots which are found at
lacking the roots of cabbage, cauli
flower, turnips, radishes and onions
These maggots develop from egg
laid by a small fly which is yer.
prevalent through the spring ant
early summer. No method of proven
ton has been found for plants grow
from seed, such as radishes, turnip
and onions, but by placing tarred fel
paper disks about transplanted plant
such as cabbage and cauliflower, tn
fly is kept from laying the eggs, an
over 80 per cent of the plants can b
saved if these tarred felt paper disc
are properly placed around the stem
of the plants and dirt is kept off tn
disks or collars during cultivation.

MINING NOTES

Camp buildings to accommodate 90
men are being constructed at tne
Echo mine at Silverton, b. q, ana IL
is proposed to increase the stan ap-
to this number OF men
and to accelerate development work.
The shipments of the Rex Consoli-
dated Mining Co. the current month
had a gross value of $4,000 up TO
Monday last. This is slight IN
crease over the value of the May
output. An increase in profits is ex-
pected on the production in July.
This will result from improvements
made in the mill and the completion
of timebring in old slopes. The I'M
provements include the installation
of fiotation cells, of which there are
now 10, having a capacity OF about
Is tons each.
The stockholders of the Northern

q STATES NOW IN
BONE DRY COLUMN
SHIPMENT OF LIQUOR TO THE
PROHIBITION AREAS is A
THING OF THE PAST.
OTHER STATESALS0 EFFECTED
Year-PenaIty Is Heavy-Big
Change Came on July 1st
at Midnight.

Washington, d. C.-Twenty-three
states became bone dry July 1, the
effective hour (midnight) of the Reed
amendment prohibiting shipment Of
liquor into any territory where its
manufacture or sale is prohibited.
Eleven other states are partially af-
fected by the legislation, which has
been hailed by temperance advocates
as the greatest single step toward
abolishing the liquor traffic in the
nations history.
The law bars from prohibition area
whether states or smaller corpora
tions all mail matter containing adj
vertisements or solicitations for or
ders for intoxicants, a provision de-
signed to aid in enforcing the anti
shipment feature by suppressing the
activities of mail order houses
Heavy Penalties Set.
Justice and postoffice department
officials have made extensive prep
arations for enforcement of the stat
ute. Ethyl alcohol is regarded by the
federal government as an intoxicating
liquor within the meaning of the act,
but methyl, wood and denatured al
cohols are not so regarded. No ruling
has been made regarding the status
of patent medicines containing alco
hol and that question may be among
the first to be passed on by the courts
under the legislation.
The language of the anti-shipment
section is very comprehensive, impos
ing a fine of $1,000 and Imprisonment
for six months, or both, on any per
son who shall "order, purchase OF
cause intoxicating liquors to be trans
, ported in interstate commerce except
for scientific, sacramental, medicina
or mechanical purposes into any state
or territory the laws of which state
or territory prohibit the manufacture
or sale therein of intoxicating liquors
for beverage purposes"
The same penalties are prescribed
for violators of the anti-advertisins
section. For a second offense in eth
er case the penalty is made one
years Imprisonment.
States Affected.
The postoffice department, in pro
mitigating the order for enforcement
of the anti-advertising section, names
the following states as wholly affect
ed by the act: Alabama, Arizona
Arkansas, Colorado, Georgia, Idaho
Iowa, Kansas, Maine, Mississippi, Ne
braska, North Carolina, North Ddko
ia, Oklahoma, Oregon, Rhode Island
, South Carolina, South Dakota, Ten
nessee, Vermont, Virginia, Washing

Those partially affected are:
California, Connecticut, Delaware
Louisiana, Maryland, Massachusetts
Minnesota, New Hampshire, New
York, Ohio, Texas.
The following are affected at futur
, dates:
