VACCINATION
An entirely new kind of grape is being
developed at the Government experi
station near Lodi, Cal., and pro

A New System for Destroying
Fruit Tree Pests Discovered
by Grants Pass Man.
W. S. Barrie owns property at the
head of Sixth street, just within the
city corporation. He had about 1000
trees, which were very scaly last year,
tho they had been sprayed the previous
winter with lime, sulphur and salt solu
tion, says the Grants Pass Observer.
Last fall, when a fruit inspector was
appointed and compulsory spraying an
nounced, Mr. Barrie cut out two thirds
of his trees, leaving 300. These were
badly affected witn scale. He proceed
ed to vaccinate 25 of these trees with
sulphur, bluestone, and a little lime.
The rest he sprayed with sulphur and
lime mixture. Today he brought to the
Observer two small apple branches.
One was taken from a vaccinated tree,
and the other from a sprayed tree, the
two trees standing about two rods
apart. The vaccinated branch is smooth,
clean and shows vigorous growth. The
sprayed branch shows scale and has not
the clean and healthy appearance of the
other. Mr. B i. l ie examined the vacci
nation holes and found that the ingred
ients had disappeared from the front
part near the bark, but that there was
some still left near the heart of the tree.
This test seems to be very strongly
in favor of vaccination. We would like
to hear fro n others who have experi
mented. it is very important to the
fruit industry that vaccination be either
proved or disproved.
/I New Ruling.
The following is a copy of a letter
received by the Roseburg land office
officials from the commissioner of the
general land office at Washington:
You are directed to at once inform all
newspapers in your respective districts
as a matter of news, that in all cases
where homestead entries are made after
November 1, 1907, commutation proofs
must show actual continuous bona fide
residence for the full period of fourteen
months.
In all cases where the entries were
made before November 1, 1907, the
rule heretofore existing that six months
constructive residence following the
date of entry will be considered as a
part of the required fourteen months
residence, will remain in force.

Wise Talks by the
Toggery’s Office Boy.
Say, I get up at 6 a. m. every morn
ing. Of course I get up before six but
I go out at 6 a. m. and carry two grips
loaded with bricks around because the
boss wants me to get fat so my clothes
will hang better and look better. I see
that the Chinese ladies and the royal
Japanese ladies, too, all made a fuss
over Sec’y Taft the other day, because
he is so nice and plump. Tnat is a re
commend for any man over there, but I
think the way a fellow’s under duds fit
him has a good deal to do with the
hang and fit of his outer duds. I know
it makes a lot of difference if your shirt
don’t fit you. But, say, if you want a
fine shape, you come here and let us
help you pick out your underwear and
shirts and sox and everything like that.
Why, it's no trick to make you look
like a professor of physical culture and
Sec. Taft rolled into one. Butt in

Letter from L. Briggs.
Butte Falls, Ore., Oct. 27, 1907.
Editor Jacksonville Post:
I write to let
you know that we are yet in God's fav
ored part < f Jackson county and to let
the valley portion know that in time
the Butte creek country will be no
small portion of the county. Mr. Ben
Freedenburg. living three miles east of
this city, brought into this office three
potatoes of the White Star variety that
weighed six lbs. and 12 oz., and in one
hill he had 15 lbs. of good solid pota
toes. The past summer we had as
large and tine blackberries and goose
berries as any cultivated ones 1 ever
saw in any part of Rogue river valley.
We certainly have better soil than the
most of the valley and in time will put
the rest of the county in the shade for
fruit and vegetables. The saw mill at
this place will start sawing the last of
this week. Your valuable paper comes
regularly and is like a visit from an old
neighbor. Will close for this time iest
I worrv vou.
MOTHERS —
that it will result in a grape that will
excel the famous Flame Tokay, which
has given Lodi so much fame. The new
variety is somewhat similar to the Tokay
in texture and color, but is impervious
to rain, is much firmer and can be ship
ped longer distances without damage.
It appears to be a cross between a
Tokay and Fererra and is of an improv
ed flavor. If properly developed it is
expected to become a most profitable
variety.
