Earie, division chief of internal reve nue collectors headquartering here, who Just returned from a fornight spent in that district. Ha reports that much activity is evidenced every where In tho southwestern Oregon country. The sawmill In the Rogue valley of the Stout Lumber company which re cently took over the holdings of the C. & O. Lumber company in Curry county is cutting about 250.000 board feet of redwood lumber daily and running two shifts, with boats plvlng between there and Golden or San Pedro harbors in California. The same Is true of Coos Bay, where Earle saw the C. A. Smith load on a million feet of lumber at the Smith-Powers Lumber comapny and pet away on the tide it docked on. To do this, 16 foot wide slings filled Willi lumber as sawed In the mill are stacked on the decks and the crane of the ship lifts them In the same sling and deposits same on board. Thus these slinks are traded like egg crates In the produce business. Curry county has not an incorpora ted city nnd a total population of be tween 3000 and 4000 people, accord ing to Karlc's casual estimate. The lower Rogue river is alive with doer, and varmints" are so thick in that country that the sheep men will fur nish rifle, ammunition, dog packs and food to anyone who will get In and Kill the predatory animals In the woods, and hills. He saw between 300 and o0 deer on the trip up and down the river by boat and while he was in the country a week or more. A large catch of Chinook Balmon is reported this season by the McClay State cannery on the Rogue near the mouth of the river at Gold Beach. The company owns the river for about H miles up the stream to protect Its Interests. Passing through Bandon, where the government dredger Is clearing out I a great sand bar, Earle reports that j me crew nau to send a diver down to lay gunny sacks of explosives to be set off by a detonator that loosened the hard bar. The water is thrown Into the air about 200 feet by the charges sot off and, where no birds are In sight at the detonation, hun dreds of gulls would swoop down in a few seconds to pick up the mangled fish on the waters. Many tourists in that section stop and wait on tho Jetty to see this sight. o . See Willard Smith, breeder of pure bied Holsteins. Glide, Ore. IS fJ EX-CONVICT e.x- CBr ''"'led Prl MANILA. Aug. 21.

Agriculture.) The law cannot be made to apply to the activities of Insects them selves, a desperate, bug-ridden hu utanity once hoped and eveu be lieved, but in recent years we have found It possible to Increase the ef fectiveness of our warfare on bugs by insisting through the medium of the law that Insecticides be sold for what they are and not merely for profit. Under the lus.'ctlcide act of 1910, administered by the I'nlted States department of Agriculture, a manufacturer may sell any Insecti cide providing he tells on the label the truth about the contents and doe not exaggerate In describing Its powers as a destroyer or repellant, and provided the remedy Is not in jurious to the plants or animals to which it is to be applied. When this law first went Into ef fect a large percentage of the prep arations for destroying insect pests of animals and plants were decep tively labeled: many of them had no more effect than swearing or a tepid bath. At the present time, according to the entomologists who test tho pro prietary Insect Icldes for the insecti cide and fungicide board, a large proportion of those offered for sale and over which the insecticide act has Jurisdiction, are truthfully la beled. In other words, the consum er. If he will but take the trouble to critically read the label, may be pretty sure or getting something that will kill the bug which he f after. Uncle Sam no longer tolerates the sale of such "unfailing" pest killers as the two block of wood. Those found by the board's in spectors In the channels of Inter state traffic and which claim to be effective to kill or repel certain In sects, must prove their worth in aotua'l testa made In that part of the country where the Insects in ques tion are prevalent, or'in the depart ment's laboratories located on a farm near Washington. On this farm dogs are kept to pro vide "pasture" for fleas: chickens Infested with lice and mites provide means for testing various powders and dips; cockroaches, easy keepers, are raised in large numbers: bed bugs were grown with only moder ate success on guinea pigs and rats, and now the public supplies the In sects In abundance when the de partment makes known Its wants. An orchard of many kinds of fruit trees, a garden, a vineyard, and shade trees provide means for test ing Insecticides or preparations said to be effective agalust plant pests. It may be well to say here thnt the department Is not at present In need of any more bedbugs. A recent newspaper story calling attention to the laboratory's offer of one cent each for 1200 of the Insects to be delivered alive was reprinted In many cities and soon brought an ample supply, packages coming from as far away a California. Many of the consignors expressed doubt as to whether it was serious business, but a few suggested they would like to contract to make regular shipments of choice, active bugs. However, the department only occasionally has need for test lots to determine the Quality of new preparations. Although hundreds of vendors of fake bugkillers have been driven off the market with the Bwatter of the law, a few of them continue to bun around, now In this and then In an other state. One of the most plaus ible of these Parasites has been sell ing so-called Insecticides to be pour ed Into holes bored into tho trunks of Infested trees, the claim being made that the sap will carry the poison into the leaves whero It will kill the Insects feeding upon them. Many substances, containing various ingredients from ordinary sand to the deadly cyanide, have been rec ommended and sold by these charla tans for use In this manner. TesM made by the Insecticide laboratory In the manner prescribed have pro duced only negative results. Even when enough of such poisons as cy anide and sodium arsenate to kill the branches were Introduced Into the circulations of growing trees the Insects feeding on the leaves were not injured. Many times when trees are Injured by such treatments they are stimulated to produce more than the usual crop of fruit, but this is In accord with the frequently ob served tendency of injured plants to reproduce themselves before death overtakes them. It Is an effort which precedes a breakdown. Other deceptions are being prac ticed, but attention to labels will help greatlv In avoiding them. Those falsely labeled as to the active and Inert (Inactive or useless) ingredi ents and as to their effectiveness are continually being run down by, the department through analyses and actual tests. 4'nniwllitn Wheat Estimate Below I .list Venr Canadian wheat crop condition on July 31 Indicates a production of 382.514.001) bushels or 17.272.000 bushels less than Inst fear accord- lug to a telegram received by the United States department of agri culture from the Dominion bureau of statistics at Ottawa.

America Is face to face with the dawn of the Bix hour day. The eight hour day hag really been here for five years. ' So declares George F. Johnson, multi-millionaire shoe king and the dominant figure in the Endlcott John son Corporation, which concerns ex periments with "industrial democ racy" have been closely studid by economists and capitalists of niuny lands. "There will be a six-hour day uni versally adopted within B0 years," as sert.'d Johnson. "The ateet trust was wrong In seeking to maintain twelve hour day. The 'eight-hour day" has arrived. It arrived more than five yearn ago. It is the logical number of work hours out of 24. Work Hard Short Shift '"The number of hours one works does not necessarily determine the amount of work he does. Diligent ap plication of one's energies, skill and ability is what determines the amount I of work. "It is true that many people work more than eight hours S day. It is true that more people work very much less than 8 hours a day. A man working for himself is his own direc tor. He controls his own hours of la bor. He may work no hours a day. He may work any number of hours a day. He may work, as nearly as pos sible 24 hours a clay. It Is his own affair. "The farmer by the nature of his calling, gets up early in the morning and goes to bed early In the evening. Between the rising In the morning nnd the retiring at night he-works Just ns he is indlued. The farmer is no tlifferent than other humans. Hut he lays out his own work. Ho has diver sity In bis work.
