SPRAYING CONTROLS
FRUIT TREE PESTS

The recent outbreak of insects on
locust and apple trees has been due
TO a soft scale Unidentified as Iecan-
ium" says H. X. Dean of the Umatilla
Experiment Farm Ordinarily this
is not considered a very destructive
pest of fruit trees. although occasion
ally there are severe outbreaks which
cause considerable damage"
Upon fruit trees and wherever
practical upon shade trees and orna-
mental plantage the pest may be con-
trolled by spraying. Kerosene emul-
sion should be used during the sum-
mer months when the foliage is upon
the trees. 1t is prepared as follows
Dissolve one-half pound of whale oil
soap in one gallon of hot water. Re
move the water from the fire and add
slowly two gallons of kerosene. Agi-
tate this mixture vigorously for ten to
fifteen minutes or until it assumes IA
thick creamy consistency, which does
not separate on cooling. This forms
stock solution and for use is diluted
with ten to fifteen parts of water"

GRASSHOPPERS MENACE
TO FARMS OF COUNTY
Simple Method Explained
for determination
of Pests.

Il Reports OF outbreaks of grasshOp-
pers are heard from several parts of
the county. The old idea that grass
hopper damage is unpreventable no
longer holds and by the use OF simple
| methods the loss may be practically
eliminated. The following Information
on their control is furnished by the
Umatllla Experiment Farm at Her
miston.
The young grasshoppers Will first
keep near open dry places and congre-
gate on them at night. The best
method Of destroying the young hop
pers is TO poison them with "A bran
mash made at follows: 20 pounds of
bran. l pound Paris green or white
arsenic. 2 quarts syrup. oranges or
lemons and l2 gallons OF water.
The bran and poison should be
thoroughly mived together while dry.
Then the water, syrup and oranges or
lemon should be mixed together and
the dry bran sprlnkled with the mix
ture. not wet but simply dampened
until the poison will adhere to the
bran.
This mixture should be used broad
cast wherever the little hoppers are
and is enough for several acres. The
best time to SOW is late in the evening
or early in the morning before the
hoppers are moving. Grasshoppers
are hard to poison and II will be a day
or two before the effects of the poison /
can be estimated.
After the young grasshoppers spread I
out into the fields or where the adults I
are distributed over any considerable 4

getting rid of them is with a hopper

CoRDoyAN'S PR0DlCALlTY IN STATES SENDS HIM
 OPSYCHOPATHIC WARD

When Bert Leon Wood, mining prospector from Cordova, Alaska, be- gan a promiscuous distribution of his wealth in Pershing Square recently he brought a gathering around him, with the result that Mounted Traffic Officer Lewis was called and Wood eventu- ally found himself in the psychopothic ward of the county hospital.
 Wood has just handed a young woman small bag of money, after she had twice refused it, and passing dollars among the crowd, when the traffic congestion attracted the atten- tion of Officer Lewis. From the ac- counts given to the police, Wood gave away more than $100. His rambling talk furnished the officer with no clue in his method of madness.
 A large automatic pistol, two Sl bills he still had on him, and a few papers showing he was known as "Prospector Red" in Alaska and as deputy sheriff in Montana were taken from him.-Los Angeles Times.

tended to result in benefit to the ter ritory. It has more the appearance of personal attack on the governor and we are forced to the belief that our fighting former delegate would not hesitate to upset the whole rail road organization if, by so doing, he could discredit or embarrass the chief executive of the territory. He would stop the work of railroad building at a time when Alaskans are striving to recover from the i'll effects of the war for no other reason than to can atten- ton to alleged mistakes and misman- agement of one who is no longer indentified with railroad construction. The fact that the work is now proceed ing smoothly and economically, with only a short stretch of road to be com pleted, apparently is lost sight of en- tirely.
 Alaskans, we feel safe in saying, have had about all the fighting they want. They are eager now to settle down to the business of developing Alaska and they need assistance and cooperation, and the improved trans portation facilities which the early completion of the government railroad will provide. If Wickersham will bend his energies along those lines he will be doing Alaskans and the territory real service Fighting the gover' nor will not speed development, and
 Wickersham failed long ago to Wrest Alaska from the grip of private trans
 portation monopolies. It was this fall ure that forced Alaskans to appeal to congress for the construction of government owned and operated rail road which would put stop to river transportation profiteering. And now that the work is fairly under way, we
 do not want it handicapped by un-
 warranted opposition.-Nenana News.
The Cordova daily times., 1919-04-12
WIck'S PUNCH ONLY A FEINT

Upon one thing it safely can be said that Alaskans are agreed. Frequent demonstrations as judge, delegate and politician, during the past dozen years, have supplied convincing evidence of the fact that James Wickersham is a fighter. The greater part of his time, since he first journeyed to Washington as Alaska's delegate to congress, has been devoted to fighting something or somebody, and not a few of his admir- CTS have continued to cast their votes for him, year after year. because of the punch that was ever ready of de- livery It was enough for them to know that Wickersham could fight. They admired him and voted for him because of his aggressiveness, disre- garding motives and the risks of ill- advised and excessive fighting. The noise of the fray, when Wickersham started something had way of dim ming issues and camouflaging person al attacks.
 While it is possible that some of this fighting has been we'll intended, the News is of the opinion that there has been entirely too much of it. At tacks directed against administration officials and heads of departments have resulted, in years gone by, in the withholding of funds which should have been made available for develop ment purposes in Alaska; ten years of personally conducted war on the Gug- genheims finds them more strongly entrenched than ever in Alaska. Col Richardson, engaged for an equally long period in defensive warfare op- posed by the delegate from Alaska, has retired from the fray with honor, and the major portion of territorial road building continues to be done under the direction of the Alaska road commission, of which Col Richardson was directing head during his long term of service in the North. And Thomas Riggs, Jr., against whom Wickersham started a fight while Riggs was still member of the Alas ka engineering commission, has emerged from the battle as governor of the territory. Throughout all his campaigns Wickersham has main tained his reputation as a fighter, but he has failed to get results-failures which have seemed to intensity his lust for battle rather than to dismay him, Alaskans have shown that they admire fighter, but they are only human-there is limit to their admir- ation And the time has come fol Wickersham to show them that his fighting is worth while.
 The reasonableness of the latest Wickersham attack, directed against Secretary Lane and the Alaskan engi neering commission is not apparent and 1t will be hard to convince Alas kans that any good will come of 1t. IT fact, we very much doubt if 1t is in
