Spray for Plant Lice
Late cabbages, cauliflower and simi
lar crops showing heavy infestations
of ilant lice should be sprayed with
some contact insecticide. - Kerosene
emulsion is probably the most effec
tive to be applied at this time. Com
mon nicotine sprays will serve nearly
as well. O. A. C. Experiment Station.

Combat European Canker.
Cut out carefully and completely the
old cankers and fall spray as soon as
possible with Bordeaux 4-4-50, where

Fall Sowing Advocated
Where possible grass seed for west
ern Oregon should be sowed in the
falL Early spring is next best. Cool
dry ashes make a good seed bed. Har
rowing or discing the land gefore sow
ing makes a rough place in which the
seed may find a foothold and start.
Sowing grass seed on bare, hard
ground is not good practice. O. A. C.
Experiment Station.
Careful Selection Advised
. . Hill select potatoes from healthy,
good-yielding plants that are not near
diseased plants. Good seed, disease
free, means better crops. O. A. C.

Early Seeding Paid "
Early seeding withstood freezing
weather of last winter, while late
seeding suffered. The crop had less
time to get rooted and the ground to
get settled. O. A. C. Experiment Sta
tion. How 256 sacks of good onions w"ere
grown to the acre, when seed was
treated for smut control, against 9
sacks to the awe untreated, was shown
in the O. A. C. experiment station ex
hibit at the state fair last week. The
smut was controlled by running a
email stream of formaldehyde disin
fectant, 1 ounce commercial formalde
hyde to 1 gallon of water, in -the drill
row just ahead of the seed planting.
This disinfected the soil, the source
of the onion smut. The home-made
device for applying the disinfectant
was shown.
Use of the experiment station pear
maturity tester made one-fifth of the
"pear crop for a large Willamette valley
grower last year. He was advised by
commercial buyers .to harvest the crop
for the cannery at a certain time, but
took samples to the station to have
them tested for ripeness. He was ad
vised to wait two weeks, at which time
the fruit had increased one-fifth in
weight and greatly improved in sugar
content. The device is inexpensive
and easily operated.
Hairy or winter vetch should be
planted now for seed. This crop gives
600 pounds of seed per acre in Ore
gon, is hardy and a soil enricher,' says
an exhibit at the state fair. "Learn
to grow it on 1 to 5 acre plots," is
the advice. The stjate needs 2500
acres of the vetch seed crop.
" The best wheats to grow in eastern
Oregon fall plantings according to the
experiment station recommendations
at the state fair are turkey red and
hybrid No. 128. For western Oregon

been tested by the station and farmers.

In applying the above grades, a very
satisfactory system is to take 'a small
board or a piece of fibre board, or a
heavy piece of galvanized iron and cut
out notches that exactly conform to
the dimensions mentioned in the po
tato grades. These notched boards or
potato calipers can be used for quickly
determining whether certain potatoes
are right for certain grades. While it
is not anticipated that a large number
of potatoes are going to be tested in
this measuring device, yet it will prove
very successful in getting at an acrur
ate determination of where the pota
toes belong. When a potato is handled
that is ' a little doubtful, it may be
conveniently tried out with this home
made tester and then put into the
grade in which it properly belongs.

A year ago H. C. Crosby, poultry ex
tension specialist, conducted a poultry
culling meeting, arranged by County
Agent Holt, on the demonstration farm
of- W. H. Thompson of Canby, Clacka
mas county. The attendance was 65.
culling emphasized by Mr. Crosby, was
again conducted a similar demonstra
tion on the same farm. The attend
ance was 125. -
The effectiveness of the methods of
culling emphasized by Mr. Cosby, was
proved during this year's demonstra
tion; when the birds culled out were
checked with trap-nest records. In
practically every instance the birds
culled out were proved by their rec
ords to be low producers.
At the request of poultrymen in the
community the Thompson farm is to
continue another year as a demonstra
tion farm.

REFUGEES IN SMYRNA . - .
APPEAL FOR RELIEF
"It is impossible to exaggerate the
fearful conditions of suffering in
Smyrna and other points of the near
east," according to a communication
just received from J. J. Handsaker,
state director Of the Near East Relief.
The Turks declared that all refugees
remaining in Smyrna Sunday morning
October 1st, would be deported. In
spite of this threat, American relief
workers continued to transport the
sufferers to places of safety on Greek
islands and the mainland, according
to a cable received by Mr. Handsaker
October 4th. Thirty-six tnousand were
taken away on Friday, but Saturday
revealed another 50,000 who had strag
gled into the ruined city over night.
They had been hiding, fearing to come
into the open until there was an im
mediate chance to escape. Those ar
riving in the city reported hundreds
dying by the roadside of exhaustion.
Tfurkish bandits were robbing and
maltreating the fugitives. New born
infants were dying in their mother's
arms. Children separated from their
parents were crying on the streets.
Among the 260,000 refugees are more
than 5,000 infants, all of whom are
suffering. . - "
The one spot of cheer in all this
desolation is the relief station, over
which floats the American flag." Six
teen hundred sacks of flour have been
landed at Mitylene for the 100,000
refugees. A total of J300.000 has been
appropriated. More help must come
and at once, unless wholesale death
from starvation is to result.
Recognizing the desperate nature of
the crisis, President Harding has ap
pointed Will Hays," movie magnate,
chairman of a Smyrna relief fund, and
will immediately designate members
from different states, including Ore
gon. Mr. Hays' 'committee will work
in connection with the Near East Re
lief. Funds should be forwarded to
