ANOTHER
FRUIT MEN
TALKING OF
FALL SPRAYS
Large Gathering of Orchardlsts This
Afternoon to Talk Over
Fall Spraying of
Trees.
0'GARA SPEAKS OF
VISITS TO EASTERN ORCHARDS
Fall Sprays Are Pertinent Question
at This Season of the
Year.
A largo number of local fruit men
gathered this afternoon to discuss
fall spraying of orchards and to hear
Professor P. J. O'Gara tell of his.
recent visit to eastern fruit sections.
At this season of the year fall
spraying is an important topic and
this afternoon is to be devoted to the
consideration of all phases of the fall
campaign against fruit pests. Box-
denux mixture being tho only spray
to be used nt that season of tho year,
the manufacture and use of this mix
ture will bo fully explained. It is a
well known fact that but few fruit
growers understand how to make a
boxdeaux mixture that will be full
strength nnd that will be effective in
killing the iiests. The process is not
difficult and no expensive equipment
is required liko in tho manufacture
of lime-sulphur solution, the two
requisites being a good quality of
lime and of vitriol and their perfect
chemical union in the solution.
Thoro aro only two pests that havo
gained a strong foothold in Rogue
River valley that are so numerous as
to ho a menace to orchards, nnd theso
nro niithracnose'on npplo troos nnd
blight on pencil trees. There nre
some other fungus pests, but they
nre not serious troubles nnd a tree
well sprayed with bordeaux is readily
freed from them. Tllho peach blight
is also readily lutndlod, but nnthrnc
noso is difficult to erndicnto from nn
orchnrd. Tho pest is easily killed,
but the difficulty is that tho spores
of the fungus nro ninny of them pro-,
tected by the rougji bnrk of the tree,
nnd unless the rough bnrk nbout the
infested places is nil removed and
the treo thoroughly drenched thero
will bo enough of the spores survive
to continue (he ravages of tho pest,
for it rapidly reproduces itself in
countless millions.
October and November aro the only
months in Rnguo River valley in
which effective work can bo done
against nnthrncnose nnd pencil
blight. Spraying nt any othor time
of tho yonr is n wnsto of tiino and
lnhor.
Tho meetings of the Boguo Rivor
Horticultural socioty nro opon to tho
public, and nil who nre interested in
tho development of tho fruit industry
in Roguo River vnlley aro oordinlly
invited to attend. This society hns
nothing to do with the mnrkot ond of
tho fruit industry,' its work being to
touch orehardists how to grow fruit.
Tho nddrcssos and discussions nrc
nil along practical lines nnd tho in
formation given is of the grentest
value to fruit growers nnd especially
to beginners., . ,

PORTLAND, Oct. 2. Carrying a

tempted to thrust his way toward
President. Tnft todny, while the chief
executive was passing in an automo
bile, but was seized, disnnnod and
arrested before he could reach the
president.
Tho affair occurred at the corner
of Sixth nnd Morrison streets at the
comer of the Portlnnd hotel.' The
parade in honor of Tnft hnd reached
tho corner when a secret service mnn
accompanying the presidont saw
Wright working his way through' the
crowd. lie seemed in such e hurry
nnnd jostled people so sever"!- llmt
ho attracted attention. Cnllir- to
several policemen, the president's
body guard sprang toward tho man,
nnnd jerked his hnnd from his coat
pocket, from which tho revolver was .
taken later. A sharp struggle ensued
and when Wright was handcuffed a
37-onlibor revolver and a score of
enrtridges were taken from him, also
a camera. Ho wns locked up charged
with enrrying concealed weapons.
Polioo Captain Bailoy, who partic
ipated in tho arrest, said Wright's
actions were most suspicious. Not
only the fact that he was grasping
a revolver, and endeavoring to reach
tho presidont in a great rush, but his
method of carrying his revolver
arousod suspicion.
Wright refuses to mnko nny stnto
mont, but that ho wns trying to got
near the president to tnko his pi.ituro.
Tho polico, however, place littlo cre
dence in this assertion nnd boliove
that Wright wns using his enmora a
a blind to get closor to Taft. .
