REPORTS BLISTER
RUST SPREADING
C. X. STILINGER ISSUES STATE
MENT FROM SEATTLE-FEARS
FOR IDAHO TIMBER.

c. R. Stillinger of Moscow, pathe-
logist, who is in charge of the cam
paign in the northwest against the
white pine blister rust, with head
quarters in the Lyon building, Seat
tie, has issued the following state
ment concerning the disease:
''This destructive disease of the
white pines was found for the first
time in western North America late
last fall when it was discovered at
several points in southwestern Brit
Washington. Extensive scouting by
the Canadian authorities during the
present season shows that this dis
ease is we'll established in British
Columbia west of the Cascade noun
tains and that it has already caused
serious damage to the pines which
have been infected for several years.
Similar scouting by state and federal
men indicates that it is rapidly spread
ing southwark through western Wash
ingtOn.
Until recently it was believed that
the disease had not spread to points
east of the Cascades. However, last
week 1t was found on cultivated En-
glish black currants and native white
pines in the vicinity of Revelstoke
and Beanon, B. c.. These points are
only about one hundred miles north
of the international boundary ana are
in the northern edge of the great wes-
tern white pine area which extends
into Washington, Idaho and Montana.
It is now evident that the disease IS
spreading rapidly and unless hurried
ly checked it will in a short time be
established in the Inland Empire white
pine stands. The disease has also
recently been found on English black
currants in the southwestern corner
of Pacific County, Washington. This
the disease along the coast region and
directly threatens the sugar pine
stands of Oregon and California.
'sIn order to check the spread OF
the blister rust it is necessary to de-
termine the extent of it's present dls-
tribution Immediately. At this sea-
son of the year it is most easily
detected on the leaves Of currant and
gooseberry bushes. The English black
currant is most susceptible and II
carefully inspected now would likely
show the disease if it is present in
the locality. You can help great
deal by examining the leaves OF the
currants and gooseberries in your 10
cality, especially the English black
currant leaves, and sending specimens
of suspicious material to the state
experiment station or to this office
for Identification.
During the second week of school
this fall, school children are being
asked to devote some time to look
ing for the disease, in this way help
ing materially in our fight to pro-
tect the western pine forests from
a very serious pest.

RADIO MUSIC HEARD
FROM ATLANTA, GA.

McP. Bailey of this city has been
listening in on radio concerts as far

Idaho is the forty-sixth state of
America to hear "The Voice of the
South" after it has been borne
through many hundreds of miles of
space by the tremendous carrier wave
of WSB, radiophone broadcasting sta
tion of The Atlanta Journal.
McP. Bailey, an everyday fan, using
ordinary receiving equipment, listen
ing in at his home, Moscow, Idaho,
about 200 miles from the Canadian
border and approximately 500 miles
from the Pacific, reported a fine re
ception of WSB's last Mondays 10: IS
concert.
Mr.. Bailey heard Prof. Alto Bells
ers sing "Tune In With My Heart"

bugle, heard WSB's now famous
three-note chime and heard an an
nouncement of a reception of Jour
nal concert in California.

Notice to Subscribers

+ Two years ago, at the time
: when the price of print paper
+ had reached it's highest point,
the Moscow Publishing Company,
in order to partly cover this ex-
ira expense, advanced the sub
scription price of the Daily Star
: Mirror to $500 per year by car
: rier and $500 by mail.
While the price of print paper
: is still practically 100 per cent
above the pre-war price, there
has been a material decline from
. the peak price. This, coupled :
: with the fact that The Moscow :
: Publishing Company, by buying :
. carload of paper through coast :
. distributors, has been able to Sc :
cure an attractive price, makes "
it possible to reduce the subscrip- :
ton price of the Star-MirrOr to :
the pre-war figure-$5.00 per "
; year by carrier in the city, and .
; $4.00 by mail. Where paid by the I
: month the subscription price is !
; SO cents by carrier and 40 cents I
: through the mails.
