Fight for Closed
River on At Salem

Salem, Jan. 15.-Fish legislation
promises to be one of the features
of this years session of the legisla-
ture and the opening gun of the
battle will probably be sounded to-
morrow when it is planned by the
combined Southern Oregon delega-
tion, led by Representative c. M.
Thomas of Medford, to introduce a
bill providing for the closing of the
Rogue river to commercial fishing.
This bill will later be supplemented
by bills closing the Willamette river
and the upper Columbia river to COM
mercial fishing.
In past sessions this has been one
of the big fights and thousands of
dollars have been spent in lobbying
by the commercial fishermen in their
struggle against the anglers.
District Attorney c. H. Burlington,
of Curry county, and the Medford
Sportmen's club will participate in
the struggle to secure the passage
of the impending bill controlling fish
ing in the Rogue. The Southern Ore
gon delegation in the senate and the
house will hold an informal meeting
tonight to map out the campaign in
behalf of the proposed measure.
within the last two days." wrote
Mr.. Burlington to Mr.. Thomas, II
have prepared petition to the legis-
lature asking that seines and set nets
be done away with and copies of this
petition are being circulated by vol
unteer workers and will be presented
to the legislature"
Roderick Macleay and his forces
enforced by Frank Seufert, of the
upper Columbia, are expected here
tonight to take up the biennial cam
paign against the proposed legisla-
tion. In sessions gone by Macleay
has waged a vigorous fight against
any legislation which might close the
Rogue river to fishing, which he Sc
cured by purchased from the estate
of the late R. D. Hume.
The Rogue river measure to be in
troduced by the consolidated South
ern Oregon delegation will prohibit
the use of seines, set nets and fish
wheels in the Rogue.
The Multnohah and Clackamas
county sportsmen, backed by their
respective clubs, will introduce this
week a similar bill closing the Will
lamette to commercial fishing. 1t is
claimed by these interests that COM
mercial fishermen come to the Will
lamette for a period of six weeks,
clear the river of salmon, and then
ship the catch to the lower Columbia

Oregon Fruit Crop Saved BY Station.
Corvallis, Ore, January 16.-If 1t
had not been for the bulletins, dem
.onstartions and instructions given on
spraying for codling moth, the apple
crop of the state of Oregon, worth
5000, 900 last year, would not have
been worth so cents, because it would
have been absolutely eaten up by the
worms. If it had not been for the
information furnished on spraying
for San Jose scale, there would not
be an apple tree left today in the
state.-E. H. Shepherd, editor Better
Fruit, Hood River, Ore.
Anthracnose is a disease that made
sad havoc in Oregon orchards until
it was controlled by formulas worked
out by Dean Cordley, now director of
the experiment station at Oregon Ag-
ricultural College. The editor has
seen orchards since they were saved,
loaded with fruit. The method has
saved orchards in other parts of the
state and is generally used for this
disease throughout the entire world.
IF. H. Shepherd, editor Better
Fruit, Hood River, Ore.
The fungus disease known as apple
crab was at first controlled by Bor-
deauX, which prevented the apples
from being scabby, but in wet condi-
tions caused them to be so badly rus
seted that they are unmarketable

as saver of the fruit industry, as

tects the fruit from the disease with

FRUIT and FARm


ial Investigators in the field, and
watch two-year-old steers grow in a
minute-not!
THE prices of $1.75 a pound on
foot for steer, and $2S a hundred
for the champion carload, are merely
symptoms. Not every layman can in
terpret them Alright, nor can the Wild
eyed, leather-lunged believer for
boycotts and embargoes prescribe a
sane remedy. Those knowing the
trade conditions understand what II
all means. And even they were
scarcely prepared to see the record
of the first International, set at $1.50
a pound in an enthusiasm which
sought to encourage the firm estab-
lishment Of the show, so far sur
passed. 1t was an altogether worthy
object on which this stimulating
price was layished, the young white
face steer from the Golden Gate. Not
the least of the lessons emphasized
is that prime beef can be made from
barley, oats and bran. More signifi
cantly this coest triumph, winning a
champion and reserve with bullocks
bred and fed in the college herd,
illustrates how faithfully these edu-
cational institutions are striving to
lead the industry into lines of profit
able production"

JaCkrabbit Skins
Worth Real MOneV

Skins of klamath county jackrab-
bits will bring from Is to IS cents a
pound in St. Louis, according to let
ter received this morning by the
Klamath Commercial Club from
Funston Bros. & Co. There Is an
outlet for these skins in any amounts
that can be furnished, says the letter.
The freight to st. Louis is 6A
cents a pound, which would leave a
margin of 10 or IL cents.
The letter from the furriers is
printed below in full, that local peo-
pie may know just what the outlet
for jackrabbit skins is:
Replying to your letter of recent
date, beg to say, we shall be glad to
receive all the jackrabbit skins you
can collect, and will allow you from
IS to IS cents per pound for them,
delivered st. Louis-the price de-
pending upon the quantities that can
be furnished and the general condi-
tion of the skins.
1T will not be necessary for you
to stretch the skins on stretchers-
just lay them flat on the floor or on
racks to dry, and when they are dry
and as fast as you can get good
sized lot bale them up and ship by
freight. On receipt of the skins we
will promptly remit to cover. The
skins may be taken off either cased
or open. If there is any other in
formation desired we shall be pleased
to hear from you. We are confident
you will find it decidedly to your
interest to collect these skins, and we
have an outlet for all you can ship.
Under separate cover we are mail
ing you our trappers' guide and sup
ply catalogue, which will no doubt
interest you.
Awaiting your further favors, and
assuring you of our best efforts in
your behalf. klamath Herald.

Shifting Farm Machinery Credits.


The International Harvester Com
pany has advised its agents that the
recent ruling of the Federal Reserve
Board that notes given by farmers
for the purchase of farm tools, agri-
cultural machinery and other farm
operating equipment are eligible for
discount, provides means Of financ-
ing such purchases without disturb
ing the credit relations with the
farmer customer. BY discounting
such notes at the bank, the agent can
get cash for the implements sold and
at the same time the farmer can have
as much time for payment as when
the agent carries him. The Interna-
tional Harvester Company has here
tofore been carrying notes of agents
and farmers in stupendous amounts.
The total in 1913 was $40,173,752,
and this rose in 1914 to $42,5S9,510.
It is expected that a considerable part
of this huge accommodation will in
future be handled by the reserve
banks.
Ashland tidings. [volume] (Ashland, Or.) 1876-1919, 1917-01-18

According to the Breeders Ga
zette, "An agitated press and emo
tional women's clubs should fall
more vigorously than ever to beating
the tomtoms. The grand champion
steer at the international, California
Favorite sold for $1.75 pound, and
the millionaire automobile makers in
Detroit, to which city the bullock
went for holiday beef, will not be
able to buy prize-winning rib roasts
and porterhouse at the old-time price
of 25 cents pound. Therefore sum
mon grand juries, spend thousands
of dollars in putting a horde of spec
