SPRAYING PRUNES FOR
BROWN ROT CONTROL
Loss In Oregon About $3.50, 900 An
nually; Demonstrations By o.
A.C.

Corvallis, Ore, March 14.-Faced
by an annual loss of about $3.50, 900
annually from brown rot of prunes,
growers in different parts of Oregon
have planned demonstration spraying
under the auspices of the Oregon Ag-
ricultural College Extension Service.
A series of these demonstrations was
conducted in the Roseburg district
last year with very favorable results,
and will be repeated this year in the
Dallas district.
The first spray of the series will
be APPLIED as the young buds are push
ing out and turning white, probably
about March 81. N. s. Guy has pro-
missed to lend an outfit for the work
and sprays will be applide to the or
chard of R. L. Chapman as necessary
throughout the season.
Growers of prunes and other stone
fruits subject to brown rot are now
working hard for the success of these
demonstrations. w. S. Brown, who
is in charge, conducted the demon
strations last year, and is devoting
much Of his time to the study of this
disease, which is growing worse and
calls for careful attention.

FIVE RECRUITS IS
QUOTA OF PATRIOT
Lexington Farmer Brings Son And
Latter's Two Chums At Own
Expense to Office.
portland Oregonian)

The United States Navy is gamer
to the extent of five strapping re-
cruits, just at time when it needs
them most, because C. A. Johnson,
OF Lexington, Or, is naturallzed ci-
tizen and feels he owes a patriotic
duty to his adopted country.
Mr.. Johnson brought his son and
two husky chums from Lexington t,
the United States Navy recrnitin !
Office in the Dekum building, Port
land to enlist in the Navy. He
paid the railroad fares and their ex-
penses at hotel, out of his own
pocket.
Just before they went up to enlist
they met two other stalwart lads
from their home town. Mr.. johnson
explained to them the advantages of
serving in the United States Navy.
and the upshot of it was that they
enlisted too.
They all FIVE went up with Mr..
Johnson to see Lieutenant-Com-
mander J. H. Blackburn, U. S. NJ,
in charge of the Navy recruiting
station in Portland.
They're all for Uncle SAM" said
Mr.. Johnson. There is another son
at home and you can have him If you
need him. l want him to finish high
school, but my country comes first
with me-"
All Fine Specimens Physically.
Did they pass the physical exam
ination? They did. Lieutenant
Commander Blackburn says he never
seen better physical specimens than
these five stalwart farmer boys.
"Mr. Johnson is a true patriot" Z"
said, Lieutenant-Commander Black
burn. Il hope to hear from more
men like him, for the Navy must
have recruits. In case of war, the
Navy, will be the country's first line
OF defense. Several fine ships are
out of commission for the reason that
there are not enough men in the
Navy to man them. The need of re-
cruits is imperative"
Recruiting figures for the Port
land station show steady increase
in the past few months. In Decem-
ber, SO men were accepted here, in
February there were IS and last
month the number was 50.

newspapers anu tne CmPOpraCtlCS.
Newspapers should have little
self-respect. They ought to look
twice at their advertisements before
accepting or printing them. Texas
country papers are chock full of Chi
.ropractic ads and some of the city
papers have stopped to accepting
such space filters.
Chiropractic methods were framed
up by D. D. Palmer Of Davenport, Ia,
in 1895, and the announcement was
made that Palmer had discovered
method of removing the cause of di-
sease, (without the use Of drugs or
SURGERY by simple method of
push buttons or spinal adjustments.
Palmer was not looked upon with a
great amount of favor at the time
and his methods are still regarded as
pure bunk. People, who need nurs-
ing and rest, are practically murd-
cred by these Chiro brethern. They
are takers and in almost every case
hide behind the "sheep skin" of
lazy, worthless quack.
The Critic has been watching these
fellows perform, They prey upon
the weak. They are bunch OF
grafters, in almost every instance
and should not be tolerated. Sick
people should beware Of Chiros.

 Secretary Russ, in commenting on the work of the association today, said The offer of the $i00 reward during the last few months has pfac- tically eliminated the opposition to the methods used by the Merchants A.

CHILDREN'S HOME
 SOCIETY VISITOR
REV. E. J. WHITE IS SUPERiNTEN. DENT OF THE SOUTHERN Dl-
 VISION OF THE SOCIETY.
Organization Has the Work of Pro- vdng for the Orphaned Children
 of the State and Teach Them Work.

Rev. E. J Witte, superintendent of the southern division of the Arkansas Children's Home Society. arrived in the city yesterday afternoon to take up the local work in regard to this institution. The president of the state organization and all officers are prom inent residents of Little Rock The receiving home is on Louisiana street. The object is to provide homes for the orphans, and to help them ani teach them
 The national society superyises the work of organization in new states.
 The state societies report annually to the national society. They hold an annual conference and in case of diff ficulty the officers of the national so- ciety are frequently called upon for advice and assistance.
 The Cihldrens Home Societies, col lectiyely, have cared for about 90 GOO childrn in 33 years. They are now caring for over 5000 each year.
 The Children's Home Societies have contributed effectively to the improve. ment of legislation in behalf of neg lected children The laws of some states bear the impress of this so- ciety.
 Why you should support the Chil- dren's Home Society of Arkansas:
 Because-There are orphan and frieHdless children suffering for just what this society can do for them
 Because-The Childrens Home is not an asylum. The family is the best institution ever devised for the care of homeless children.
 Because-There are many childless homes in Arkansas that need home less child to fill the vacancy.
 Because-The children received by the society get real home, with good foster-father and mother.
 Because-From the time a home less child is received by the society until old enough to be self-supporting it is never friendless again.
 Because-The society keeps many children out of the reform school, and in the place God intended for them the family home
 Because-The society by saving homeless children to honest and in dustrious lives. saves the country and state thousands of dollars that other wise would be spent in their support as dependent paupers, or their prose cution and punishment as criminals
 Because-The society is absolutely free from political, sectarian or race bias Protestants children are placed with Protesants; Catholic children with Catholics, and Jtwish children in Jewish homes. wherever possible. Therefore help a child find a home.

The Nashville Boosters are booked
to arrive in Crossvilie at 1880 next
Tuesday morning and remain about two
hours.
1t Is the wish of the boosters that as
many OF the farmers of the county as
possible be present to meet them.
There will be several speakers to ao-
dress the people telling of the advant-
ages to be gained by buying in Nash
vile and buying Nashville made goods.
As is the custom they will probably
have numerous souvenirs to give free
to those present.
The real spirit of the movement is to
secure closer and more congenial bust.
ness relations with Crossville and
Cumberland county. Such conditions
invariably prove mutually helpful and
are a pleasant and interesting way for
business men and consumers to meet
Such farmers as are able to get away
from their work for this meeting will
find it pleasant and interesting time
and they will at the same time be able
to get closer view of those who sup
ply large portion of the necessaries
consumed by the people of this section.
