SUGGESTIONS FOR
CONTROL OF MOTH
(By Leroy Childs)

Judging from the activities of the
first generation of the codling moth
and from the present extremely warm
weather, the latter factor conducive
to the rapid development of the worms,
trouble will be encountered in control
ing the worms unless all growers are
on the alert.
The worms have made extremely
rapid growth during the past three
weeks; some are now leaving the
fruit to undergo changes that will
make them moths. Last year the
weather was so cool that many of the
insects failed to change and waited
until this spring to become moths;
this year this development probably
will not require greater period than
two weeks. The deposition of the
eggs follows few days after they
appear.
Recommendations of the Experiment
Station for the control of the second
generation will depend upon the de-
gree of present infestation existing in
the individual orchards. Where worms
can be observed plentifully at the
present time it will be well probably
to make two applications of arsenate
of lead in order to destroy the early
and late insects. In orchards that are
practically free from the insects at the
present time one well timed spray
should suffice.
1t is still a little early to give out a
period during which time the spray
can be applied most advantageously.
In badly infested orchards where two
spays should be given it is the writers
suggestion that the growers be pre-
pared to make the first application
shortly after the first of August, this
to be followed with second applica-
tion three to four weeks later. Devel-
opment of the worms during the next
week or ten days will make possible
the giving out of more accurate infor-
nation in the near future.
Growers should instruct all thinners
to save out and destroy all wormy
apples. The insects are not destroyed
if the apples are thrown on the ground
only; they should be burned or buried.
Every worm destroyed at this time
will prevent the deposition of an aver
age of rs eggs later on, factor which
will materially assist in keeping down
the numbers of insects that appear in
the next generation.
The apples of the valley are excep-
tionally clean this year; chances for
scab infection are practically over
the same is also true for the green and
brown aphis so that the codling moth
is the only pest that stands between
US and clean harvest. The past two
years, 1915 and 1916, were not ex.
tremely favorable for the development
of the codling moth and little trouble
was encountered by the grower. 1t is
going to be different this year; every
grower must be ready to use his
sprayer and use it at the right time
to get good results.

Traveller Praises Scenery

Mrs. Florence Randall Livesay, au-
thoress and newspaper woman and
inveterate globe trotter, who is here
visiting Mr.. and Mrs. c. W. Parker at
their Little Boy Ranch" on the
Columbia River Highway just west of
Mitchells Point tunnel, emphatlcally
declares that the Mid Columbia scenery
she has beheld during the past several
days to be the most appealing from an
all around standpoint she has ever
seen. Mrs. Livesay's husband is pres
ident of the Canadian Press Associa-
tion.
The Parker home is in the very
shadow of Storm King, as the early
Indians termed Mitchells Point, the
basaltic eminence that arise sheer
1900 feet just back of the famous
open windowed tunnel. Mrs. Livesay
says that the MAGICAL and unique set
ting of the country home surpasses
anything she has ever seen.

RULES OUTLINED FOR

A question frequently asked in con.
nection with the coming draft is
whether a man absent from his home
county, either out of the state or in
another county of the state, can ar
range to save the expense of returning
to his home county for physical exam.

ing before the exemption board of the
county in which he happens to be.
He can, but only under the following
conditions:
Immediately after receiving notifica-
tion from hi, home exemption board to
appear for physical examination, the
absentee should write the board, fully
explaining the circumstances and ask
ing permission to present himself be-
fore the board in the county where he
is situated.
The War Department draft regula-
tions authorize his home board, if it is
satisfied with his statement, to give
such permission. He should not appear
before the other board, however, until
he has first been notified by his home
board and has obtained the necessary
permission.
The board before which he appears
will have full jurisdiction over his
case

Many Water Permits Granted

State Engineer John H. Lewis issued
l04 permits to appropriate water and
four permits to construct reservoirs
during the second quarter of 1917,
covering the irrigation of 5,395 acres

CHERRY HARVEST ON
AT NUNAMAKER'S

The busiest ranch in Hood River
now is the West Side place of J. r.
Nunamaker, known as the Hood River
Valley cherry king. Thirty women
and girls are engaged in packing the
luscious product, while crew of 40
more, composed of a percentage Of
men. is engaged in taking the Bings,
Lamberts, Royal Annes and Black
Republicans from the laden trees. The
cherry harvest lasts from three to four
weeks.
While Mr.. Nunnamaker, who is a
member of the board of directors of
the Apple Growers Association, is one
of the owners of the Valleys largest
apple holdings, he grows more than a
fourth of the cherries produced in the
Hood River community, and yet his
cherry tracts only total four acres.
From this small acreage, however, he
expects to harvest more than so tons
of fruit this season. One acre of the
cherry orchard is set to Lamberts.
Mr.. Nunamaker expects more than
s., 200 from this variety alone.
When visitor arrives at the place
of Mr.. Nunamaker, and they are nu.
merous at this season of the year, the
owner always escorts him during the
course of the exploration of the ranch
to a giant Lambert tree, which Mr..
Nunamaker characterizes as the king
tree of his place. The big tree never
fails to bear full crop, an average
of about 800 pounds each year. The
yield will be greater this season.
Nearly all of this fruit is of extra
fancy quality and will sell for about
10 cents per pound. That going to the
Gamers will bring AZ cents.
Mr.. Nunamaker is not only known
for his immense cherry crops but also
as the owner of one of the best
D'Anjou pear orchards in the valley.

pear, and sells in South American
markets.
One of the features of the cherry
and pear orchard of the West Side
orchardist is the developed irrigation
system. Mr.. Nunamaker does not find
it necessary to purchase water from
ditch systems. G. d. Woodwork.
former owner of the ranch, purchasing
perpetual water right, built head,
works at high point above the place.
The West Side soil is very porous, and
the water used in huge quantities by
ranchers, who purchase from irrigation
districts, seeps quickly through the
gravelly subsoil and seeks the lower
levels. Awaiting himself of this water,
already used in irrigating higher
orchard tracts, Mr.. Nunamaker Sc
cures a sufficient supply to cover his
entire 35 acres.

Pendleton convention of the State
Editorial Association, was shown ovel

Stray Cows Keep Carson Busy

Stray cows and damaged gardens
have kept City Marshal J. X. Carson
unusually busy the past week. At one
time the officer was being called from
three different parts of the city to
come and arrest milch cows that had
broken their tethers and had wandered
into the priced vacant lot plot of vege-
tables of some amateur gardener.
Marshal Carson says he will ask for
a special cow pound, if depredations of
animals continue. ''To provide place
for captured cows" he says, 81 have
already commandeered all the avail

Strawberry Expert Here

F. R. Cole, an expert of the United
States Department of Agriculture, has
arrived here to engage in experiments
of years duration by which he hopes
to evovle methods for the control of
the strawberry weevil. Mr.. Cole is
working in connection with the local
branch of the Oregon Experiment
Station.
While the strawberry weevil is un-
known to most Hood River berry
growers, it has made its appearance in
some tracts, and the possible spread
of the pest has alarmed growers who
know of the devastation following its
attacks in other districts. The weevil,
it is said, has put number of straw
berry sections out of business.
