SUGGESTS SPRAYING !

Holes In Leaves Suggests
Work Of Insect---Plant
Expert Says SPRAY

A few days ago 9. o. Constable, coun-
ty fruit inspector, discovered several
leaves of the loganberry with perfora-
tions somewhat different from the us.
ual He also found specimens of bios
som blight that appeared different from
others under observation. TO get addi-
tional information on the subject, he
sent both specimens to H. P. Barssi
botanist and plant pathologist of the
Oregon agricultural college.
In regard to the loganberry leaves
full of holes Prof. Barss, under date of
August 16, writes:
"The loganberry sample from the
farm of ]. w. Woodruff north of Salem
is one which l have never come across
before. 1t looks as though it might
be the work of an insect as l see very
little indications of leaf spot develop
ing. Under the circumstances, / think
it advisable to advise to cut and burn
the old canes and would suggest a
good spraying with Bordeaux mixture
to which soap has been added to spread
it. This to cover the new foliage SC
that when fall comes, the infection will
not occur on the cane and leaves of the

JAP COMMISSIONERS
REACH WASHINGTON
VIII Get In Touch With Amer
lean Ways, and Learn
Something
(By Carl D. aroat)

Omitted Press Staff Correspondent
Washington, Aug. 22.-Japan receiv.
cd her first close up glimpse today OF
America at war.
For the first time since the opening
of the world conflict, official japanese
representatives, other than regularly ac'
credited ambassadors, were in wal
capital for conference with one of the
powers making common cause against
Germany.
The visit of the Ishii commission was
believed to bold the greatest possibili
ties in the international situation. The
commissioners arrived at a time when
the United States is rapidly mounting
to new heights in her war work. On
every side, as the japanese We're escort
ed from the station, were visible evi
dences that America is a real wal
power.
The Japanese will soon hear of the
progress made in training American
troops already in France; Of two Rain
bow divisions" of militia-about forty
thousand men-in course of mobihza-
tion and who may be in France before
snow flies.
They win also learn of America ::
plans of handling war profits. They ar
rive at time when the president has
just fixed coal prices, when proposed
legislation for the conscription OF
wealth is holding nationwide attention
and-even greater international indie
pendenee-when all preliminaries indi
cate rejection of inconclusive peace pro
posals.

CITY OFFICERS WILL
Hold FOR SOME TIME
Will Hold Over to November
1918---This Under Law
Passed Last Winter

Officers of cities or towns in the
state of Oregon will hold their office
for the term for which they were elect
ed, if such terms would have expired
between July 2, 1917, and November
| 5, 1918, and IN addition they will hold
until their successors are elected and
qualified. The next general election will
be held on November 5, 1918, and city
officers who were due to 60 out of of
flee this fall or be reelected will hold

This is the opinion of Deputy Secre-
tary of State Sam Kozer, in letter
to ID. M. Byerlee, editor of the Oswego
Times. The letter of Mr.. Kozer follows:
Answering yours of the 10th, res
pectfully direct your attention to the

of the Constitution as adopted by the
people at the special election held June
A, 1917, and which provision became
effective upon the issuance of the proc
lamation of the governor July 2, 1917,
following the official canvas of the
vote east at such election.
''It will be observed from a reading
of such Section that, among other
things,
every officer who, at the time OF
the adoption of this amendment, is the
6uly qualified incumbent of an elective
office of an Incorporated city or town
shall hold his office for the term for
which he was elected and until his sue
eessor is elected and qualified.

Barss writes as follows:

This is a condition l have never
had presented to me before. 1t does not
look like parasitic disease although
there might be something wrong with
the entire plant. If it were disease
attacking the blossoms of young fruit
in parasitic manner, it would strike
part of the blossoms and leave other
unaffected and would be apt to spread
to other vines in the neighborhood. "
Mr., Lovett, entomologist of the O A.
G. in letter to Mr.. Constable, express
ed the opinion that the trouble with the
loganberry leaves with perforations was
caused by the sawfly. He thought onS
application of lime sulphur solution and
arsenic of lead should be given soon
after the foliage comes out and an
other just before the plant blossoms.
