Moisture Is necessary for the growth of these tporea, which under projicr conditions grow out into slender tnl'CF, which penetrate the bark of the apple tree, ramifying in tile tissues, kill ing them and producing the typical cankers.

While it is desirable to get In-Hit of the fall rains the application innv de made any time that the Weather permits. In serious cases a second spraying should bj given about two weeks later than the- firs'. Spraying alter the middle of December is not rcconiinelideJ. I'.adly infected branches should be pruned out precte ling the fal'Jspraying. In young orchards where not two large, it might be profitable to pare off the outer bark of the brownish diseased spots w hich exposes the disease to theair, which in many iiisLinces kills it, per mitting the wounds to heal over, this can 1k( practised only iu the early stupes of the Infection perhaps not later than the last of lh'cemlier. The treatment recommended will entirely control the disease, and should lie nractised evcrv vear as a mutter ol insurance,' beginning when the orchard is vouug. If this is done no opportunity will be ottered for the disease to liecom serious. J. V.

April 30ih 1!K)H, Congress, by joint resolution, au thorized and directed the Attomey General to institute a suit in behalf of the Government. In its bill of complaint the Govern ment asked that tth'2,300,000 acres of unsold lands revert back, or that receiv era be appointed to aell the lands in compliance with the terms of the grant If the lands are forfeited to the Gov eminent, there is li" c doubt but that the people who have r:i upon them in good faith would 1 u! wed to remain and would lie given n pa'ent for the lands. There are n t ninny settlers on the railroad lands iu llns county, but what few there are have some mifchty line claims and would like to see the case beetled. Also, if this land is thrown open it will bring a large number of new people into the county. Adjudged Insane Josepn Welch, aged 50 and a newcomer from Kricnd, N ibntska, was committed to the state insane asylum from tbi county on Wednesday last. Welch ia a man who was absolutely harmless, but required constant watching. He wan red away from his home at Deer Island, where he was living with bis son. a week ago Tuesday and came to lloullon. lie h id taken a gun with im and his folke th )Ught he was lost in ihe wirods. and so notified theauthori ties here. When he arrived in Ilonlton ha started out to make his presence in town known. Going to the barber shop lie got a shave, and atsked Mr. Gerdes if there was any property in that neigh Imrhood tor rale. Mr. Gerdes is ia the real estate business, and has lots all over this sec'ion, and be thought that Welch was a newcomer who was looking for a nice place to mnee a home. He showed him two bunches of lots, one wUi HiXJand the other $150, making in all fH."0, and Welch agreed to iake them but thought that tha pr ce waa too low and raid ho would make it f.KX). Money was absolutely no object to him and according to himself he had more of it put away in a back in rriend than all ol the banks in the State of Oregon con tain, l'y evening he was so well known at Ilonlton that Marsh il Long was tak ing care of him, and be s on graduated from the little jail at Houlton to the strong box in the basement of the court house, llefore lieing picked UD be had passed several small checks on different people, but iu the aggregate they will not amount to more tlnn a few dollars. Welch, his wife, daughter and grand daughter are but newcomers here, and Ins folks are the complainants tn the matter, as be is undoubtedly insane The attendants of the O. S I.

ROBERTSON I THE RAILROAD LANDS A copy of the speech made by Con gressman Lall'erty on House Joint Keso lution No. 121, directing the Attorney General to employ at least one resident attorney of the Stale of Oregon as asso ciate counsel in behalf of the doverii ment to Kid in the further prosecut'on of the suit against the Oregon and Cali fornia Railroad, bis reached the Mist olllce, and from it anyone can learn a lot of this case, which Mr. LatUrly des cribes s the biggest real estate suit ever filed. All told there are 2,:S00,00i acres of land involved, and some of it is among the finest in the state. This bind was grunted .under an set of April 20th, 1809, which rend in part as follows: "And provided further the lands granted by the act aloresaid shall lie sold to actual settlers only, in quan tities uot greater thin one quarter sect ion only, and for a price not exceeding fiO per acre. It is a big suit ond the outcome of st is hard to foresee. Of course the rail roads mill light it to the tiiiixlr Their claim is that the terma of the grant are so Indefinite that the provisions aannot be enforced. The present suit seems to b (or a forfeiture of the land, I.a-t week was a red letter week in the lives of the memliers of Mr. Ruther ford's Sunday School class. Accompnn ied bv Rev a. A. Heist the boys started fur Camp Live Wire on the headwaters of the Clatskanie, Wednesday morning. The thirteen miles from St. Helens to the a ip were covert d before noon and iu a remnrkably short time after arrival all bauds were full of "ham and After dinner tents were pitched, cedar bough beds built, wood gathered, etc In the evening after dishes had been washed (and wiped!) and a camp fire s' si ted, the boys organized themselves into a eity government. The dignity of mayor was thrust Upon Cecil Ross. Mitt McKie and Koy Laws became apt imitators of ihe best of our city fathers in the capacity of councilmen. Charles Smith assumed the role of marshal while James Adams became the dispenser of justice by virtue ol his office as recorder. To lay that all bad a good time doesn't begin to convey the though ol the boys. They were true to their class name in every sense of the woid. From reveille at 5 ::IU in the morning to retreat at 9 :00 in the evening, there was something do ing every minute. Of coure most of the big fish got away but the smaller ones tasted quite as good. The climax of fun came with the ses sion of the recorders court, Friday even ing. It was a day of judgment to not a few who were guilty of violating the un written laws of the camp. Judge Adams meted out justice with an iron hand anil more than one had occasion to remem ber other hands for some time. At eight o'cloclr, Saturday morning the compnny began the return 'march for home but each with the firm resolve to go again next year. It has now been definitely determined that the regular attendants of the class will camp at the coast next year. Hurrah for the Live Wires . WANTED Man to cut wood on shares location one mile N.
