And once more it is the glorious ambition of about 50, 000 American youth, eager for a college education, to take first honors in football. Yet they are not vastly different from the rest of us. If wo had no pleasures in life to an ticipate and strive for, the woik-a-day world would offer very little incentive for hard labor. PUT A LABEL ON IT. A member of the City Planning Commission disagrees with the suggestion of The Observer that arches at the city's highway entrances, if they be built in place of the present structure near the station, bear some legend tell ing visitors and tourists a few facts about La Grande and the Grande Ronde valley, lie states that people have iu. time nor inclination to stop and read such mutter ant seems of the opinion that a decorative entrance of pillars would be most suitable.' ' ' ' It is not our desire to sec an entrance or arch con stfucted on which would be placarded the past, present am. future-history "of .t.hitt..pititHnhii1i.--.rri.-,.iHi..; 'mild ir quire more ppace than an entrance structure would pcrmil jfind more-, time and patience than the average sign painte might , possess. But certainly, such a "thing : deserves n label When a visitor from Oshkosh drives through thi valley and through un impressive entrance, we are of the (ipinion that he would appreciate knowing whether he is entering a cemetery, a state institution, or the leading city of Eastern Oregon. . A name, population figures, two or three chief indus tries, and a terse statement of the wonders of this and tlu Wallowa valleys would provide some authoritative inform. tion he would appreciate. More than that, it would labf one city in Eastern Oregon in a lasting manner. It won1, provide,' if carefully and briefly done, a bit of forceful y unobtrusive advertising. And we believe both in labeli products and advertised products. We believe in them b cause they pay both groups concerned. Of couirn, if th aesthetic taste of some of our citizens would be irrcparahl;. offended by such a practical idea as this, then ve won't suggest a decorative entrance but with an immediatel; adjacent hoard carrying the legend of our city. Let beaut lie served. Ah;o let good business lie served. And goof' business is that which is pleasing and unobjectionable ti both sides of a possible transaction. OFFICE CAT TNAOS MAflH IIO.

Krult dried in this way feels more moist to the touch thun when dried the old way. Keeping ex-irt time on a "bach" that is just rirrht will afford a reliable lndox cm time of drying. Bees, Mice humans, dislikes win ter moving. If not moved in early fall then dlay the process until next March, at leant, says H. A. Scullen, bee specialist at O. A. C If moved more than two mHm the bet-s should be aroused and wv clustert'd by pounding on the hive and smoking, to cnuble them to tuko new observation. Otherwise many may return to the former location. Grass or weeds placed over the entrance helps. Prunes left In Oregon orchards and now covered with brown rot should be hogged off In the fall or plowed under early in March, says H. P. Barss, plant patholo gist at the experiment station. Plowing should be followed with frequent cultivations through vhc blossoming period . This disturbs and breaks off the cup stugo and prevents production of spores. The prune m unites formed this rail will not produce spores till the sjnn of 19 6. Early plowing should bo practiced in all orchards where brown rot was present a year ago. The pour leaf blister mite has developed as a serious pest, on ap ples in Oregon during the last five years. It alfects both the foliage and fruit. The Infestation on the foliage Is easily observed because of the peculiar thickened bitter like spots It causes. The spots are usually of a reddish or brown col or. A careful sprayer will have little trouble In controlling the blister mite on pears with the dor mant strength or lime sulfur, JJ luo, after the leaves drop. HOYS HAVE STOLEN CAft I'ENDl.KI'ON, Ore.
