The Douglas water hemlock occa-

hemlock is the most numerous and
deadly in eastern Oregon. In both
districts the stockmen will find that
hy fencing off the poison areas, or

will be greatly reduced. Stockmen
IN eastern Oregon are generally fam

OF them dig out the roots.

NEW RULE TO STOP
BOARDING OF SUGAR

The swan song of the sugar hoard
er has been sung. Hereafter each
purchaser of two pounds of sugar
will sign a card containing data as to
each pound bought up to that date,
also a pledge of honor not to hoard
sugar and to purchase and use it
only under the rules of the federal
food administration. These cards
are then filed in the office of the
county administrators throughout
tie state and are checked over. The
names of all "repeaters" will thus
lie shown.
The new checking device was in
stalled in response to complaints
from dealers that their restricted
supplies of sugar have been consider
ably exhausted by people repeating
their purchases.
Dealers have one card for each
customer" said Mr.. Aver. THE card
e so designed that the information
thereon. will serve as complete
check. Lny person violating the
rules and buying in excess of his or
her allowance will be guilty of
boarding and subject to the penalty
prescribed for this offense."
Penalty for this offense may not
exceed two years in the penitentiary
or a fine of $4,000, it was explained.
ANY person having in his possess
sion at this time any sugar in excess
of the proper allowance either for
domestic of for canning, should at
once return it to the dealer from
whom it was purchased, are Mr..
Ayers instructions.

PRIVATE OROURKE
TELLS LIFE STORY

| Private Michael O'Rourke, who l.

his late war experience, gives somt

stranger than fiction.
About four years ago he was @

among millions of soldiers perhaps
one of the most envied of men in
his possession of the Victoria Cross
the Distinguished Conduct Medal
and the Military Medal. And while
about four years ago he was sling
Ing the pick in Canadian mine, to-
DAY he is addressing large audiences
throughout the United States and
with open arms.
Private O'Rourke is the fighting
Irishman and there is no mistake
about it after he has told some of
hic experiences with the Huns. In
expressing his opinion of fighting,
lie doesn't see much good in the or
dinary rifle and bayonet. What he
feels is necessary is the Lewis ma

deny other nations the heritage Of

do so would defraud and deflla the
destiny of mankind.
why should we seek peace at
the moment when Germany is de-
cllnlng and America is beginning?
That is what Lansdowne beseeches
us to do.
President Wilson has spoken the
only words which in these days
should be heard in the councils and

OREGON'S APPLE CROP
REPORTED TO BE SHORT

Oregon's 1918 apple crop should
be about 100000 bushels, or 10
TO 20 per cent below average, ac-
cording to estimates of prominent
fruit men, based on reports from the
principal apple growing centers OF
Hood River, Mosler, the Willamette
and Rogue River valleys.
Prices are expected to be slightly
under those of last year. Because Of
the bumper crop in the east and the
less of some Of the European mar
kets and large crop in Nova Scotia,
western growers are not expecting
record returns from their 1918 prod
Lct,
Higher cost Of labor and increas-
ed cost of all materials will tend 10
hold prices up. Boxes will cost %
cents this year. as compared with
16 cents last year, and supply mag
be short, according to present pros
poets, because Of the use of box lum-
her for government needs.
Shipping the fruit to eastern and
other markets may brlng another
problem, but empty cars are more
plentiful moving eastward than west
ward, and apple growers hope. to
Pave plenty Of cars for the eastern
market. Cold storage is an alternate
If cars are not available early in the
winter.
The apple crop in the east is we'll
above normal this year, which fact
will counterbalance the shortage in
the west. Washington, II is expect
I'd, will furnish 100000 to H.
100000 boxes from her Wenatchee
and Yakima orchards.
Winter apples will he more plenti-
iul than either the summer or fall
varieties, 1t is expected. The pres
ent rather slow movement of apples
S attributed to the sugar shortage
ard to the desire of the public to
wait for the better fall homegrown
apples. Many pounds of apples will
be evaporated for Uncle Sans needs,
according to Henry Dosch, of the
state board Of horticulture. lie says
that oregon's entire prune crop has
been taken by the government which
also will take care of the prospec-
tive pear surplus.
The Willamette valley, which had
practically no commercial crop last
year Will have about a two-thirds
crop, according to figures of the state
horticultural society, as given by c.
/. Minton. New orchards around
Corvallis, Lebanon and other points
Will increase the yield this year
Hood River district is expecting
tbout 100000 boxes this year, which
IS about the same as last year and
20 per cent Of the bumper crop in
1916. \ redeeming quality this
year, however, is that the fungus
growth of two years ago is not in
evidence as yet.
\ much better crop than last year
ard good average crop is the pres
ent prospect at Mosier. The Rogue
River valley will have about a two
thirds crop, much better than that
of last year.
