COMMUNITY
SALE SATURDAY
Farmers Exchange Arranges for
Transfer of Superflu0us
Personal Property

Another of the farmers auction
sales will be conducted next Sat
urday by the Farmers Exchange
on Front street. With the coming
of spring everyone finds an ac-
emulation of articles no longer
needed about the place. At the
same time there is likely to be dis
covered use for some article not
to be found.
The Farmers Exchange auctions
are for the very purpose Of getting
rid of the surplus and acquiring
that for which a need has arisen.
Residents for miles around bring
their goods to these sales where
they are auctioned off to the high
est bidder, at only small fee to
the auctioneer.
Except providing the place and
publicity for these sales, the Farm
ers Exchange has no interest other
than to be of genuine service to
their farmer friends. The Exchange
does not profit nor have any part
in the conduct of the sale.

PERRY SUGGESTS
PEAR SPRAYING
Horticulturalist Says Growers who
Have Had Pear Leaf Blister
Should Use Lime Sulphur

Growers who have been having
trouble with pear leaf blister mite
should spray their trees at once
with lime-sulphur, according to-
Jay Perry, county horticulturalist.
Eight gallons per hundred OF 81
degree lime-sulphur will kill the
mite" Perry says. "Where scale
is also present 12 gallons per loo
should be used"
The pear leaf blister mites,
which are so small as to be in
visible to the unaided eye, live over
winter on the buds and attack the
leaves as soon as the buds break
open in the spring. They can be
controlled by spraying any time
after the leaves drop in the fall
until the buds open in the spring.
"The loss to the pear growers is
largely in lowering the grades of
the fruit" Perry continued. "The
mite causes depressions over the
surface of the pear. One of such
depressions will reduce an other
wise No. 1 canning pear to a No.
2 and more may make it a Gull.
Last year the blister mite prob
ably caused as much or more of a
loss to Bartlett pear growers IN
this district than SCALE"

East of Town Friday After
noon-New Structure to go
Up on Old Site

The warehouse of the Continen-
tai Oil company, east of town, was
completely demolished by fire Fri

flames and prevented damage to
the storage tanks nearby.

was unloading gasoline out Of a
tank car into a storage tank at the
time the fire commenced. 1t started
in the gasoline pump, which is
housed in a shed nearby.

COOK TO TEST
THERMOMETERS
ON TUESDAY
Big "Y," Courier-Reporter and
Cooks Home will be Sta
tions where Guages May be /
Left before Monday.

While the balmy days and thr
sprouting grass have indicated that
spring was here, the arrival last
week of Albert Cook, the frost
warming man from the United
States department of agriculture,
makes certain the fact that the
winter season is over. Mr.. Cook
has already begun his duties OF the
season.
The frost warning service will
begin as soon as there is any need
for it. Orchardists, who want their
thermometers tested can have 1T
done by bringing them into the
Big Y office, the Courier-Reporter
office or to Mr.. Cooks home, 10
Fruitland street, before next Mon
day. There is no charge for the
work and the corrections will be
marked if the thermometers are
left at either of the collection
points any time before Monday.
The warnings are being given
this year as before, to the central
office, where anyone interested
can get the information for that
night any time after seven o'clock.
Mr.. Cook said that there were q
few more orchardists who were pre-
pairing to heat this year than there
were last year and that nearly all
were adding to their equipment.
The stations will be in the same
locations in the county as they were
last year.
Mr.. Cook will continue his expert
ments in regard to heating for
berries, tho he has not definitely
decided as to which plot will be
used.

better. Several changes are plan
ned, such as replacing the tee
