Should Spray Now
For Cooling Moth

Cooling moths have been emerging
IN great numbers in the orchards for
the past two weeks. The weather has
been too cool for heavy egg laying,
but some eggs have been found and
1t is possible that some worms may
be hatched during the coming week.
1t will not be possible to control the
first brood, by one application on ac-
count OF the long period in which
the moths will emerge. Some are
still in the worm stage and will not
emerge as moths for possibly 80
days.
Under the circumstances it seems
advisable to make two applications
for the first brood. Make one appli-
cation within the next 10 days and
follow with another in two to three
weeks.
No. 2 arsenate paste to so gallons
or No. l powder to SO gallons. Com
bine nicotine sulfate with arsenate

tions see county pathologist. II ap-
plications have been made recently,

Boy Caught Without
Registration Card

Pat Cassidy, a Portland youth 29
years old, was picked up at the S. p.
station Wednesday night by Chief of
Police Hatcher, to whom he told an
incoherent story of losing his regis
tration card, which had resulted in
his being arrested at every town he
passed through along the line. Cas-
sidy first attracted attention at the
station by an apparent display of
grief which enlisted the sympathy of
some passersby. Failing to elicit any
information as to the cause of his
trouble, Chief Hatcher was called and
took the young fellow in charge, and
later lodged him in the county Jail on
the charge of being a Stacker. He
claimed he had lost his registration
card, or that it had been stolen from
him, and he was endeavoring to get
to San Francisco, but was arrested
wherever he attempted to stop.
On being released from the Jackson
county Jail, Cassidy started north,
where he met up with the strong arm
of the law in Douglas county, accord
ing to reports in the Roseburg pa
pers. 1t is thought the boy is men
tally unbalanced, as his statements
were vague and disconnected.
