CHEMISTS ARE SEARCHING
FOR NEW SPRAY MATERIAL

The pressing need for a new spray
material with which to combat the
codling moth and other orchard in
sects is being thoroughly studied this
winter by the State College experiment
station. Dr. Kermit Groves, chemist,
and James Marshall entomologist,
working in the laboratories of the di-
vision of chemistry at Pullman are
studying several chemicals known to
be toxic to insects.
Previous work in this state and else
where has not shown these materials
to be satisfactory for this purpose. 1t
is believed, however, that certain ones,
if improved, may have valuable posi-
bilities in connection with the spray
program in the Pacific Northwest.
This work is being done under the
direction of DIR. r. l.. Webster, head of
the zoology department, and DR.. j. l.
st. John, head of the agricultural
chemistry division.

Results of Legislature

CONTINUED from page -
actment Of legislation calling for ex-
penditures Of money. The proposal TO
issue s25,0oo,o0o bonds to underwrite
scrip almost passed In the House, and
this should give a fair indication OF
the attitude Of mind Of the members.
The Senate passed $40 100000 Coulee
Dam bond issue.
This wild handling Of funds, how
ever, must not be charged against
the Governor and his official family.
They were legislative proposals, which
found the administrative forces In the
House and in the Senate badly split.
The legislature did adopt one bit OF
legislation which will go long ways
towards assisting the industrial pay
rolls to stage comeback.
The passage of the House bill which
recreates the old three member COM
mission for handling Industrial insur-
ance and provides for three types OF
this character of protection for the
worker, doing away with the existing
state monopolistic plan, is one, ana
incidentally cuts out one of the most
active political departments in the
state which was made possible through
the code commission form of govern
ment set up in 1921.
Under the new bill employers can
either insure with the state, private
companies, or carry their own insur-
ance, with the most rigid state regu-
lations and restrictions.
There is little doubt but that the
new statute will be one Of the few
enacted at the present session which
will tend to restore confidence among
the payroll makers in that it lifts from
their shoulders an ever increasing
overhead cost. This cost has now
reached proportion which makes it
virtually impossible for certain indus
tries of this state to compete with
those of other states on the open mar
ket. AS can be expected, the new mea-
sure met bitter opposition from the
same sources which have been inclined
to make a s'racket" out of the present
system.
No individual or group which has
been benefited at the exclusion o.
others in any kind of a racket car
be expected to be overjoyed when the
legislature wipes out their easy none!
| scheme.
A feature of the new tax bill which
the House and Senate approved woult
have made it necessary for farmers
ranchers and dairy and poultry mer
| to keep books in the future. These
books, if the law was to be kept, must
show just what the value of everything
grown on the farm is, and pay a gross
tax upon this value. This applies tc

an export basis, such as wheat ana
apples. If the surplus portion cannot
be marketed abroad at fair prices, the
situation would have continued de-
pressing effect on prices of these crops.
Resultant low prices would bring about
a shift in production to other farm
commodities and eventually affect
farmers growing crops on a domestic
basis such as truck gardens, dairy pro-
ducts, poultry, and others. Certain au-
thorities see a complete readjustmen,
of agriculture if the buy-at-home
movement is carried to the extreme.
Other authorities see hopes for in
ternational agreements to trade and
exchange surplus products of United
States for those that cannot be econ
omically produced in this country.
There are many items such as rubber,
tea, coffee and tin which could be
traded for wheat, apples, cotton, pork,
and other farm products, to the bene-
fit of all concerned. There is some nope
/ of future relief from present trade
barriers through bargaining with mu-
| tual concessions and through growth
| Of international good will. Progress to-
ward more satisfactory settlement OF
the reparations question in Europe
during the past year is a large step
forward Any agreement satisfactory to
all parties on the question OF allied
debts would react favorably on foreign
markets for farm products. The econ
omic and monetary conferences sched-
uled for London this summer will be
watched with interest.
Agriculture and business is likely to
be affected more by current legislative
action than at any previous time In
the present generation. Debt, bank
credit, acreage reduction, tariffs ano
many other important factors in the
current situation are receiving legls-
lative attention. Although it is toe
early to predict definite results, many
vital changes are likely to occur. lr
the meantime, farm families are max
ing continual readjustments in order
to carry on and hold their farms ane
homes. All are willing to fight thell
way out of the present dilemma. Tit
problem is to plan for future which
will lead agriculture into a new era

New Farm Picture
COnfrOnts Farmer

Editors note: This article gives the
general background Of the present ag-
ricultural situation as we'll as the cur
rent outlook. The specific outlook for
a few of the agricultural commodities
in Washington will follow in later
issues of the Spokesman.
Farmers are weighing many new and
changed situations as they map their
course for future action, declares R.
M. Turner, extension economist, Wash
ington State College, in reviewing the
general outlook for agriculture. Condi-
lions are complicated and the road
ahead has been obscured by fond hopes
that previous high prices would re-
turn. just where to begin future plans
is confusing because the situation In
wolves the maintenance of a good ex-
port trade and dealing with serious
Embellishments between prices Of var
ious commodities
The future outlook is largely depen-
dent on the general price level An
improvement in the general price level
would help farmers meet fixed charges
of debt, taxes and other expenditures.
If the general commodity price level
remains at about it's present level, at
least three adjustments must follow
Industrial wages and capitalization
will have to come down to the point
where goods and services are within
reach of farmers. Repayment Of the
farmers burden Of debt will have to
be made more in line with prices OF
farm products. Farm taxes will have
to be brought down and distributed
more equitably. Some of these trends
can already be seen in lowered real
estate taxes and declines in farm ma
chinery prices.
The volume of agricultural exports
from the United States was 80 per cent
less in 1892 than in 1928-29, anc
the value go per cent less. The change
in the United States to the position
of a creditor nation, the determine.
ton to maintain favorable trade
balance and the unwillingness to lent
further money abroad, are unfavorablt
factors on foreign trade for our farm
products. Foreign public and private
debts owed this country amount tx
over 100000 ,OOO, 900. Collection OF an.
substantial amount Of the principa
and interest without further lending
is possible only by receiving materia
goods and services Of greater valu
than the United States supplies 1t
debtors.

United States to buy at home and pro
duce at home rather than import iron

away. The housewife on the farm
would hereafter keep record Of the
eggs consumed by the family and be
prepared to pay tax upon the value
such eggs would have brought II sold.
Not one farmer in twenty during the
discussion on the bill knew what he
was up against.
AS could be expected, some rather
unnecessary and rather vicious legis-
lation did manage to slip past during
the final rush. BY the same token
some constructive bits Of law making
also was enacted at the same time
under the same conditions.
A bill which gives the state control
over all expenditures Of public service
corporations, a rather drastic and I'M
wise bit Of legislation, was enacted.
Following the same theory Of law, the
state can take over the handling OF
the personal finances Of the individual.
While the House was enacting this
kind Of legislation 1t was also refusing
the right Of the governor to appoint
budget control commission to watch
over tax expenditures.
Long delays due to conference COM
mittees working on controversial mat
tiers tied up the session for long hours
after the regular time for adjourn
ment. This was to be expected.
The governor now has the final say
on about two-thirds of all bills passed
as he will not have to act upon them
until March 10, and there will be nc
