Krusc Lumber Company Erecting Planing Shed 1 YWNCAI.LA. June 30.- The Krusc Lumber company of Yon calla has slarled work on the constructiein of a pinning shed, in which equipment will he installed to cleiuhle the present capacity for finished lumber. The new planer will be electrically opi'iateel. The company also is building five mile's of new road on lied Hill, slatting near the Scheisso home and extending to Dixon mountain. When complcrled, this road w ill open a huge' tract of vir gin timhi'r. Even an unskilled opera tor has no trouble keeping a "Caterpillar" Diesel En gine perfectly tuned. Three simple, infrequent adjust ments are all that are re quired: 0 Fan Belt. Water Pump Packing Nut. Valve Rocker Arms. Formufa Given For Control Of Rot on Peaches Peach growers are warned to be on the lookout for attacks of brown rot owing to the continued rains and moist conditions pre vailing for the past several weeks. Brown rot has been reported found in a number of peach orch ards and may be expected to cause considerable damage, ac cording to J. Roland Parker, county agricultural agent, as peaches reach maturity unless control measures arc taken in time. Re-commendation for brown lot control on peaches is the use of wettablc sulphur six pounds to 100 gallons of water which may be applied at any time brown rot appears while the peaches are developing. The spray should he applied at least five weeks before harvest and followed with a spray 10 days later, with a third application 10 days after the sec ond spray if brown rot is still present. Dusting sulphur may also be used for the control of brown rot on a similar spray schedule. Sulphur for either dusting or wettable sulphur sprays should be fine enough to pass through a 3J5 mesh screen or even finer. Many of the failures to control brown rot with wettable sulphur are traceable to poor grades of wettable sulphur, poor or inade quate spray or dusting equipment which makes it impossible to do a thorough job of spraying or dust ing, application of wettablc sul phur or sulphur dust after the brown lot has caused serious damage, and failure to apply sul phur in one form or Ihe other often enough to give control. Oregon Invaded A relatively new poison plant nas invaded many parts of Ore gon recently anil constitutes a'clis "t i net menace lo those who may not recognize II, says Dr. Helen Gilkey, curator of the herbarium at Oregon Stale college. This plant is known by various names such as poison hemlock, wild parsley, or even wild pars nip, though it is not the familiar large-leaved wild parsnip. The scientific name is Coniun macula turn, l-'irsl (specimens of this plant were reported in Oregon as re cenlly ns lit.'M, when it was found near the Corvallis-Albany high way.

' The plant is just as poisonous as the dangerous water hemlock, and constitutes even more of a menace because its hollow stem might be used by children for making whistles, says Dr. Gilkey. It makes a showy growth and, when growing in its favorite peat or swamp soil, will attain heights of five or six feet or even more. It is found on drier ground but does not grow so large there. Two ways of Identifying this plant are from characteristic pur ple motllings on the stem, and by the fact that when parts of the plant are taken indoors, they give off a distinctive mouse-like odor. Because of its rather attractive appearance, with fine-cut leaves, white flower heads, and seed pods that resemble dill sejed, this plant has even been found growing in shady places in private gardens. Dr. Gilkey reports that the plant is poisonous to stock as well as humans and may cause trouble in hay. Il is a biennial, producing foliage' the first year and going to seed the next. KeepOregon Green Campaign Opens PORTLAND. June 29. Deter mined, statewide efforts to make "Keep Oregon Green Week" an effective rallying point in mobil izing Oregonians to prevent forest fires is reported by Dean John son, chairr...".". of the Keep Ore gon Green association. More than 100 communities are organized for the week's member ship enrollment campaign with plans complete for maintaining local stations where citizens may obtain their official Keep Oregon Green pins and membership cards. Combat Carelessness "Citizens are rapidly becoming aroused to the vital need for checking the man-caused fires that annually ravage our state's greatest scenic and economic as set," said Nelson S. Rogers, state forester. "When, it is considered that more than (MX) forest fires in Ore gon last year were caused by smokers' carelessness, every thinking citizen must realize his or her individual responsibility in helping to slop this neerdless wasle. Oregon forests arc Oregon payrolls anil a most important factor in the national defense program." Vacationists Warned Mr. Rogers warns everyone planning outings over the Fourth of July holiday that, despite the recent rains, fire hazards exist in many parts of the state and the forest fire safety rules must he strictly observed.

EDWARDS - We engage i,n a questionable practice and comfort ourselves by saying: "That looks all right to me." Yet if we look deeper, we would see that it was not all right. Watch a mo tion picture of a vase being broken and its pieces scattered. Then run the film backward and see it become integrated rather than shattered as piece by piece the vase is restored to its original beauty. Or see a picture of a soldier grasping a foe by the throat and forcing him to his knees, and then prostrating him on the ground. Reverse that film and the sol-elie.-r seems to be reaching down and assisting the enemy to his feet. When one docs not have the King in his life the picture is perfectly satisfactory it its first showing. He goes about smashing things and people, and it seems all right because he has never recog nized the Kingdom of God. With Christ as his guide and king, our eyes are able to dis tinguish right from wrong. We can see a great deal more.with our eyes if we have an intel ligence back ot them. "Open Thou mine eyes, that I may see wondrous things In thy lanes," is a prayer all may pray. Amen. So sacred is bread considered by the Arabs of Morocco that they never cut it with a knife.
