EARTHQUAKE STORIES
DECLARED TOO BIG
Los Angeles, Aug. "a.

Editor Glacier have read several
letters and articles in the northern and
eastern papers written by some of
those who "fleeth the wrath to come. -
Doubtless there would have been more
said, had not some who fled. like Lot s
wife, and stopped to look hack at the
great calamity which they imagined
was falling upon the fair city of Los
Angeles. No doubt there were people
who could not be induced to go into
some of the great theatres during the
time of the temblors, but rather and
perhaps for the first time, entered one
of the big churches. | heard of one
woman who neither went to theatre
or church, but ran with all her might
out'into the middle of the street, cry
ing. out. Come on. Jesus, am ready
for you.
OF course, there was more or less
excitement at those times, but | have
seen no one who seemed to have been
scared except those who were natur-
ally nervous or inclined to be hyster-
ical. know not of one person in Los
Angeles who was in anv way hurt, and
my wife and | rather enjoyed the sem
sation of the temhlors.

Well, that is what it went there for.
To one unaccustomed to seeing big
things, the damage might have looked
to him to he considerable but really
the damage was not a drop in the
bucket TO hardly any one of the cy-
clones which has moved its swath
through many of the states.

deal and there is more building going
on than ever, and with all the building
there are hardly any vacancies and

or buy homes.
Nv wife, on a recent trip to San
Francisco, noticed that the ears were
only about half filled up, while upon
returning the long train was loaded to
its limit. and in conversation she found
that many of the passengers we're

CHILDS SUGGESTS
LATE MOTH SPRAY
(By Leroy Childs)

Coddling moth development at the
present time indicates that eggs will
be Matching and small worms entering
the apples well up to picking time this
year. There are many orchards in the
valley where worms are sufficiently
numerous as to warrant another appli-
cation of arsenate of lead. Growers
should go over their orchards carefully
at this time. In case a noticeable per-
centage of wormy apples are found or
may have been noted at any time dur
ing the summer, another application
should by all means be applied. Many
moths have been appearing in our cages
of late and this will be followed by
many worms if the proper precautions
are not taken. The need of this appli-
cation is more essential this year than
usual owing to the fact that the heavy
rains of the past week removed some
of the spray applied last month. Use
the lead in this application at the rate
of | pound to 100 gallons of water.
This is a reduction in the amount of
lead used ordinarily and is required bV
reason of the lateness of the applica-
tion.
The use of Bordeaux on trees. heavily
laden with fruit does not seem advisa-
BILE at this time. This is particularly
true of the Spitzenburg, as it will ma
terially affect uniform coloring. The
fall Bordeaux on such trees should fol-
low the picking Immediately. The
spray machine should follow up the
pickers if anthracnose is to be con-
trolled.
However, in orchards where the crop
is light, or if there are blocks III the
orchard that are unfruitful, this year,
an application of Bordeaux in the near
future would be decidedly advisable.
This could be used at the rate of $3.50
and it would prove of tremendous as
sistance in bringing anthracnose under
control.
The lead spray for late worms should
be applied as soon after the Septem-
ber as possible in order to get the
best results.

No Apple Recess this Year

No students of Hood River schools
will be permitted to participate IN an
apple harvest vacation this year, ac-
cording to an announcement just made
by school authorities. The custom of
letting high school students take a re-
cess during the height of apple harvest
was adopted during the war. The school
authorities, however. declare that the
practice was very demOralizing. and
that any request for dismissal of stu
dents for apple picking this season will
be frowned upon by faculty and school

Governor Roberts announced today
that so many appeals have reached

comply with the parole requirements.
Farmers attribute the shortage OF
