Central High
COmmCement.

The closing exercises of Central
High School were held, Tuesday,
Wednesday, and Thursday nights
of last week. The program, Tues
day night, was given by the little
folks of the grammar school de-
partment and was very fine. The
way the children conducted them
selves showed that the teachers had
been untiring in their efforts in
training the young people.
The play put on by the high
school department. Wednesday
night, was high class and showed
splendid talent and thorough train
ing on the part of the pupils and
teachers. This is one of the best
plays ever given in the high school
building.
The program, Thursday night,
was just as good as those given
the preceding nights. The lecture
by Dean Mathes of the East Tenn
essee State Normal was very fine.
The key note of the Deans lect-
ure was this, the country was suf-
fering on account of a shortage OF
labor in the productive fields, that
the living depended wholly upon
father whereas in former years the
mother and girls and boys contrib

Lodge Presents New Compro-
mise Reservation to Article
10 But Probable Gain and
Loss of Votes Offers Little
Hope.
BY ]. w. T. MARTIN.

Omitted Press Staff Correspondent
WASHINGTON. March 12.-With
political and business forces urging
them on, many senators are today con-
tinuing their effort to save the peace
treaty. They dare not give up. they
said, as long as there is the slightest
hope remaining They may be forced
soon to let the question go to a test
vote in the senate, which will demon
strate whether or not ratification is
possible.
Senator Penrose has arranged a
pair which indicates he will vote
against ratification, it was stated by
several senators today. He voted for
ratification last session, but is said
to have been prevailed upon by Sena-
tor Brandegee, one of the republican
"bitter enders'' to change his posi-
ton.
WASHINGTON, March 12.-Senator
Lodge presented compromise reser-
vation to Article 10 of the league COW
enant to the senate today. 1t is a mod
ification of the Watson-Simmons pro-
posal which itself was modification
of the original Lodge reservation. In
Offering the compromise he said:
Il do this in consequence of what
I have many times repeated to the

on defeat of the treaty on
the mere question of wording. If L
hought what I have offered affected

would not have offered it, but would

The amended form provides that the
United States assumes no obligation |

pendence of other nations against ag-
gressioil.

promise provided that the United (
States assume no obligation to en- /

EVANS TALK ENJOYED
BY LARGE AUDIENCE


tsAmericanisnl was the main idea
in the lecture by Arthur Walwyr
Evans, which was delivered at the high
school last night, as the first number
OF the Ellison-White lyceum course.
A splendid crowd was in evidence and
the manager of the campaign is able
to announce that the school is safe
financially in regard to the course.
Mr.. Evans mode of delivery was a
bit unusual and the variety, combined
with the clever display of wit, won the
audience for him.
The speaker is n naturaliZed Amer
lean and a nephew of Lloyd George of
England. He told why he had become
an American and what it meant to him
to be a citizen of this country. Fra
ternalisn1 is the best thing about this
country he claims. While scoring the
radical element of the country he said,
1.-THE quickest way to lose all freedom,
is to permit too much freedom of
speech"
William Howard Taft is the next ly-
ceum number. He speaks at Happy
Canyon in May. The high school COM
mittee plan an extensive advertising
for this number.

FARMERS WARNED IN
BUYING NEGOTIATIONS

Umatilla county farmers are warned
by Fred Bennion, county agent.
against buying incubation bacteria
from a commercial company which
sells bacteria at the rate of $500 per
acre, while the price of the culture as
furnished by O. A. C. is available at
25 cents per acre.
The firm. states Mr.. Bennion. sold
inouculations in Lake county for 10, 900
acres, at 81 an acre. The college will
furnish culture in unlimited quantities
to any Individual. at 25 cents an acre.
Professor G. V. Copson. acting bac-
teriologist of o. A. C. gives the follow
ing information regarding artificial
incubation of legumes:
THE pure culture method is per-
haps the best way. all things consider
ed to get the special kind of bacteria
into your soil. If you already have a
certain legume growing in a field on
your farm. you can easily and thor
cughly inoculate another field with
some of this soil.
mo one can guarantee favorable
results from pure culture inoculation,
II is an experiment and If the soil
happens to be lacking i'll this partic-
ular kind of bacteria it will probably
be a benefit if properly applied IL
the bacteria are already there, inoc-
ulation is useless; it is like adding
little water to the ocean
Colonel j. F.. Mcknight, Vice Pres
ident of the Farm Bureau and a large
alfalfa grower, says;
ct have always obtained my tnocu-
lating bacteria from o. A. c. and find
that it gives excellent results. On raw
lend it is absolutely necessary to
inoculate. If this is not done the yield
will be as much as one full crop less
than on thoroughly inoculated SOIL
Any one who tries to sell farmer the
culture for as much as $500 per acre
IS making an excrbitant profit.

INSPECTOR ADVISES
EARLY FRUIT SPRAY

: w. S. Hopson. county fruit Inspector.
advises Umatilla county fruit grow
ers to spray for scale now. He says
the most satisfactory method of con-
troll known Is to spray with lime sui
fur just before the buds open. using
the commercial brands at the strength
of 1 to s.
The eggs are not killed at the time
of spraying, but il the lime suIfur re-
mains On tire tree until the young
hatch out they are unable to settle
down and soon ole, says Mr.. Hopson.
Lime sulfur to cannot be used
on trees in foliage and therefore it
must be applied before the buds open,
he states.
Shorten as much as possible the
time between spraying and the OPEN
ing of the bHds," advises Mr.. Hopson.
This will shorten the period of the
application 6f the spray and the
Matching of the eggs thus decreasing
he possibility Of the lime sulfur be-
ing washed off the trees by rain.
Where the scale is particularly bad
many fruit growers are beginning to
spray now and will repeat just before
the buds open. Throroughness is alb
soiutely necessary in order to get rid
of the pest. Every bit of surface ON
the tree must be covered. Any man
who fails to cover all parts of the tree
had better save his spray"

AUDITORS START WORK
ON TREASURER'S BOOKS

SALEM. March 12.-Marwick. Nit
chell. Peat & Co, were employed
Thursday to audit the books of o. p.
Hoff.. state treasurer. and the work
Started todau A. D. Andrus, manager
of the company is in personal charge
of the audit. Because of the extent of
the investigation outlined. it is not
likely to be completed before the last
OF next week.
The grand jury inquiry however,
probably will start Monday, accord
ing to announcement today. 1t will
be in charge of Attorney-General
Brown and his assistants. Although
there have been many rumors re-
garding the treasurer's office during
the past few days, practically the
entire probe will relate to the direct
charges that Mr.. Hoff purchased
securities for the state for which he
is alleged to have paid the brokers
excessive commissions and that some
Of these securities were bought at a
figure above market quotations.
No allegation has been made that
any official or employe of the treas
urer's office profited from the pur-
chase of the bonds. Neither has any
one questioned the honesty or integ-
rity of Mr.. Hioff.
Friends of Mr.. Hoff- who claim 70
be in touch with the affairs of his
department. say they are confident
mis- accounts will he found correct.
and that at most, any criticism of the
Grand jury will center about the com
missions paid for securities for the

Sweeley of the Idaho public utilities

MIR. Sweeley was advised today that
the oregon commission has submitted
the matter to the Oregon attorney

Commissioner Sweeley said today
there was no question, in his opinion.
that the Idaho commission has au-

Writing to the Oregon commission he
said in part:
1--WE would have no difficulty with
the matter except for the fact that
