j DRILLING I
There are several kinds
of drilling but the kind
the kind tr.at makes the
farm pay is the drilling
which makes water avail
able. There is no need
of a dry farm. The task
is not so great as you
may think. I have had
years of experience and
understand the well busi
ness thoroughly.

EXPERIMENT STATION IS .
ASXIOl'S TO GET RESULTS.
Serf ral Species of Tests Slowly
Making Enroads on County's Fruit
Need of Prompt Action Many
Individuals .In .Hue .with .Sug
gestions. Urgent need of prompt attention to
pests In La Grande Ronde valley or
chards, Is spurring those who have
fruit Interests deepest at heart, to
.speedy action. The .experiment sta
tion at Union is using all Its influence
in bringing about the best results in
this respect. County Inspector Olden
berg and Commissioner Judd Geer,
aided by many others who carry, no
offliclal title, are also shouldering up
to the task. The experiment station
has sent out the following which
deals with the pest question:
"We have Apple Scab, a very bad
thing in a fruit country. Also the
Oyster Shell scale. These have been
there for years and there has been no
spraying for them. They will, in
time, If left alone, spread all over
the valley. Spraying for the pests
all over the valley would mean a
cost of thousands of dollars to the
orchard men every year. It !s true
that there is some movement being
made to spray for the scab this year,
but people should wake up.
"Then there Is the Pear blight, !t
has destroyed many pear trees !n
the valley, yet there is no deter
mined attempt to kill it out by win
ter pruning, the only way it has
been contr-illed. There is Anthrac
nose in one of the orchards near L:i
Grande. This Is one of the worst
pests and most destructive pest to
the apple that is known. The or
chard should have ben sprayed last
fall."
fcoutliern Oregon Determined,
The way thrwr do it in Southern
Oregon is explained In the follow
ing from the Ashland Record:
All growers of fruit trees and
shrubbery affected with San Jose
scale must spray their trees, shrub
bery, etc., so effected, by April 1st,
1909.
Anyone falling to comply with the
law in regard to this matter will
have their spraying done by the coun
ty, and the expense charged to the
owners of property so effected.
This section is badly effected with
scale and must be cleaned up if it
takes all summer to do it.
