With the passing of the years t he f a m 1 1 1 a r f u ces of t hose who crostivd the plains and endured the hardship and privations of frontier life, are not seen so often. It Is but right that the pioneers should be recognized and given their Just due. , We know thut through their efforts Oregon has become the great country that It Is. They are the original boosters. We honor the pioneers of -Oregon for what they have done and are even yet doing to upbuild this fltate.

Fred l.nndahl, auparintendent o! the Western Oregon Orchard rm pany, being Interviewed by a r;re aentatlve of The Morning Mall, took otTEfclon to atate that the orchards of thia company now looking fire ,i.ld thut tbe youuK treea were du'i; ev- pecfally well. this cumpany has 900 accn land aet to fruit 60.000 trees. Mr. l.iindulll stated that tho-u- l.'j upon whlcb he waa using a conquer- dul fertilizer were responding vaiy nuticeably to the added nourlBhnior.t Mr. I.undahl also stated that he had discovered a preventative against In jury to young trees by borera. tali hits, mire and all the different ir.- serta which .aiw more or less tio i- hle. The custom has always l-n to bind the treea with a stiff pap.i. but Mr. I.undahl haa found that u li quid compound which haa long beon iu use in Germany ia equally as ef fective here. He had read of the preventative and made an experi mental test and found It an absolute preventative from the ravages of all insects. Aa before stated. It ia a liquid and la applied with a brush or cloth, to the trunks of the trees from the ground to as high aa there would be danger of attack. He claims to have thus treuted all the com pany'a treea, and so far haa found It to be very satisfactory, no injury having been done the treea, and only 13 gallons of the liquid used on the entire orchard. He cannot, he says, be absolutely sure aa to lta being a preventative agulnst borera until In August, at which time these insects commence their onslaughta. How ever, Inasmuch aa the borer egg Is deposited on the trunk of the tree and near the ground earlier In the season, he sees no reason wby the preparation he uses would not keep off the Insect which deposits these egi's. When applied :o the trees It has a 3limniy appearance and even after it has been applied It still remains in the same gummy condition and does not wash oft from rains. If this provea to be all that Mr. Lundahl clafma for it, Ha use gener ally will prove a great saving to the orchard men of the valley, aa the wrapping of treea, as Is now done, is a great expense. atood not on the order of their going, either; they just got up and trav eled. Another thing I noticed Is that the' carboiiniiiro preventa rabbtta from attacking the young treea. I noticed on several occasions rabbits approach a tree, get a sniff of the stuff and back off like he had I touched something hot. Then he would try another, but with a like result, until finally he would become disgusted and look for his supper somewhere else. Tbe use of this preparation will be large saving of expense to orchardists. Not only will it atop the ravages of Insects, but will also do away with the necessity of protecting the young trees wltb cov ers, as Is now dune. I have been also trying another experiment and that is using a email amount of fertilizer on young trees planted In new ground; that Is, ground not heretofore culti vated, and the result is more than pleasing. The trees have taken a vigorous, healthy growth and have a good start already." IIAITIHTS MKKT. The Itugue Itlvcr Baptist Association at Central Point.
