probably take a year or more to ae

Annually with the recurrence of
aummer and the gathering of the pio
neers of Oregon for their reunion,
comes the thought that those men
and-women who have helped to make
this section the great country It now
is, are rapidly diminishing in num
Itera. 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.

Orchard is in tine Shape.
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."
