LEAF ROLLER NEW
ORCHARD PEST

An emphatic warning to all fruit
growing districts of the state is
sounded by Professor A. L. Melander
of Washington State College.
Professor Melander has Just finish
ed an investigation of the ravages OF
the "leaf roller" the newest and most
deadly pest that has yet appeared in
the orchards of Washington. The
leaf roller is similar to the coding
moth. Eggs are laid in different
parts of the tree, hatch into larvae
and burst forth as moths. The moths
are so numerous and so disagreeable
that men refuse to work in the orch
ards where they flourish, it is SAID.
There seems to be nothing that can
be done to eradicate the leaf roller
during the present season, but an oil
spray has been prepared which has
proven effective against them if ap-
piled in the winter time.

WHY PAPER PRICES SOAR.

The present paper situation IS
world wide Clippings from the New
York City papers of the same recent
date are to the effect that:
Large printing establishments in
all parts of Germany have suspended
and the leading newspapers have re-
duced their stats by one-half. Man
ufacturers of paper have notified the
publishers that an additional increase
in price is about to go into effect that
will make paper cost sixteen times as
much as it did before the war.
"The cost of paper in Italy is from
$35 to $40 per 100 lbs. or ten times as
much as formerly, and three times
what it was last March. A royal de-
cree has just doubled the sale price of
daily newspapers and periodicals.
Leading English publishers are
increasing their prices and complain
ing that no paper is coming from the
United States and not nearly enough
pulp from Canada, so that they are
dependent upon Scandinavia and Fin
land.
Similar complaints have come from
other quarters and publishers in Aus
tralia say that they are faced with
extinction because they cannot get
the paper they need at any price.
The day of cheap white paper IS
gone forever. The labor cost per ton
of paper manufactured is now nearly
three times what it was in 1918. The
cost of wood per cord is about two
and one-half times what it was seven
years ago and the cost of paper ma
chimes has increased in equal amount.
Coal is costing the mills from two to
three times what it did in 1913 and 1t
takes a ton of coal for every ton of

BILLION DOLLAR INTEREST
PAYMENT.

"The government disbursed the
huge sum of $1,020,2 PSI ,622 in inter
est to investors in the fiscal year
ended June 80, new record in gov
eminent finance" remarked bond
dealer. "This sum was equivalent to
per capita distribution of 1915,
and is an illustration of how idle dol
lars harnessed to a good investment
are made to work. The government
paid out in interest alone last year Il
sum which was approximately equal
to the entire national debt before the
war. 1t exceeds by nearly 5000, 1000,
900 the entire preferred and common
stocks of the United States Steel cor

the United States totaled only few

are numbered in the millions. Wall

dens in the enforcement of the law
during the year were 534 non-salar-
led deputy game wardens in the
state. OF this number, King county
alone had 222. The necessity for
using automobiles to enable the game
wardens to enforce the law is shown
by the fact that there are % belong
ing to the game commissions of the
several counties of the state. King
county has 5, Yakima 2, Thurston 2,
while 10 other counties have one
each.
The desire of the people of the state
to preserve their wild game supply
is shown by the fact that there are AZ
the present time 1,333,64l acres of
land within game preserves, created
either by the action of the state
Legislature or by action of the several
county game commissions.
The law only requires the State
Game Warden to make a biennial
report, but at the same time it re-
quires an annual report from the
county game wardens to the State
Game Warden. In order that the
next legislature may have the bene-
fit of the latest statistics to guide
them in making any desired changes
in the game laws, the State Game
Wardep has compiled the report and
forwarded it to Governor Hart.
