INSKCTB ANI SPRAYING.
The question of insect pest and Bpray-
ing to destroy them was taken up and
consumed much of the forenoon sesnion.
J. G. Si.er asked if the wooly aphis
could be destroyed by spraying and H.
V. Short in reply stated that In ex
perience Willi ims pesi weni 10 snow
that it thrived in damp cool places, es-
lieciiilly where the sun did not slime,
and he recommendod as a remedy free
use of the knife in the orchard. He
cited a proof of his statement the ease
of a tree which grew on the north side of
his lions' where tho sun never shone,
which when the wooly aphis appeared
was attacked and killed by the ieat.
Both Lewolling gave his experience in
spraying 40 acres of orchard with a solu
tion of lime, salt and sulphur and found
that it destroyed all pestB, excopt the
wooly aphis, and codlin moth. His
remedy for tho wooly aphis is to grease
the trees thoroughly with hogs lard. For
tho codlin moth his remedy is to tie
around the trunk of each tree about eight
inches above the ground, a gunny sack,
then to go around every few days and
kill all the moths which have gatherod
about the folds and under the Back
11. V. Short stated it as his bolief that
insHcts wore migratory and that the
present visitation of pests would disap.
pear as others have in the past, but tho
goneral sentiment of the meeting was
that they were bore to stay unless eradi
cated by the application of vermin de
stroyers.
TUB ORAl'B D18CUSSKD.
Mr. Walgamot Had a few vines and
nrunod niiitn late In the season, and
nearly mined hiB vines as the sap ran
out and dropped to the ground.
J. G. Zinser, who has had a lifelong ex
perience, said February islate enough to
prune, mot neaaons, though In a late
eanon like this March would do, but it
may be done a soon a the leave drop
in the fall. Grajie vine should be
trimmed close leaving not over five buds,
three i better; then pinch off bud be
yond blotiHomand between bud. Think
it best to trim stock not over two feet
high.
George Karidall had been raiHing
grape twenty years, and find the la-
bella the only variety that doe well.
J. C. Wolgamot find that all varieties
do well on the Canby prairie.
C. C. William has a fine vine of Con
cords which trails over a building and is
never pruned. Some year the one vine
ha twenty-five bushel.
J. G. Zinser said that with pruning the
graiie would tie larger, better and firmer,
and gave an illustration of a vineyard
near Portland of four or five acres, the
rent of which wa O00, the labor $300,
and the profits over that large,
J. A. Chase stated that the company
he represents had investigated the mat
ter, and their conclusion w as that none
but table grape would do well here
Frank Lee of the Northwest Pacific
Farmer stated that an analysis of the
soil of Clackamas county showed that it
wa better adapted to grape culture than
that of any other county in the state, but
that none of the foreign varieties do well
here owing to mildew. Several of the
American varieties do well however.
SMALL FHl'IIS
The question of small fruits being
broached, Mr. dwelling said that he
was testing the raining of small fruits,
and had twenty acres of strawberries
and ten of blackberries, favoring the
Lawlon berry for the latter. Questioned,
he said that blackberries should be given
plenty of room, say two feet by ten,
and trimmed about four feet high. The
ground should tie kept thoroughly culti
vated, say ten times a year. The ques
tion w as asked, What is the life of a patch
of berries? To this Mr. Lewelliug said
that he planted a patch in 1800 which is
in good tearing condition yet.
Speakinit of profits from blackberries,
Mr. U'Ken stated that $100 per acre was
a fair profit to count on when all the
work is hired.
Mr. towelling gave as hi experience
with a single cane of Lawton grafted
upon a wild blackberry root. This grew
about five feet high with lateral branches
about as long, and the one vine produced
in one year twenty-three pound of fruit.
ABOCT PKUNINO.
There seemed to be considerable inter
est in the question of pruning and a gen
eral discussion ensued. The general
sentiment w as that old trees should be
closely pruned, due care being taken to
shape the tree by careful use of the knife.
Mr. Lewolling would trim peaches in
the fall and keep the limbs well down.
J. A. Chase, w ho has set out 100 acres,
cut all trees back at time of planting to
two feet high ; then when the branches
grew cut them back to eighteen inches.
This gives a stocky tree with strong
limbs capable of sustaining a heavy crop
of fruit.
Dr. Casto trimmed his peaches back
at planting to two feet and a half leav
ing only the one stem, then in August
cut the new growth back, thinning out
all superfluous limbs.
part in the coming World's Fair meeting;
and naval review were coming np from
the capes, and that they would be along
in an honr. Thi was a notification to
stand by to salute the visitor after they
had fired 21 gun in honor of the Ameri-
can color, and tlie ion was prompt in
doing this. Many ef the hotel vixitors
were awakened by the terrific bombard
ment which ensued, and the reverba
tion of the big gun of the Blake and the
answer that came qoicHy back from
the military post and the flagship Phila
delphia. Scarcely hail the amolte disap
peared from the muzzle of the gun w jen
the Blake began a series of salutes to
the French, Russian and Italian flags.
During these ceremonies the flag of all
ships were constantly charming from
that of one country to another. The ap
pearance which the five British ship
presented as they moved past the end of
the United States fleet to the anchorage
grounds designated them by Rear-Admiral
Gherardi, was a beautiful one.
that has troubled his orchard is curled
leaf, and this he has invariably cut off
and buried.
D. W. Howard stated that curled leaf
is fatal to seedlings, hut that it does not
seem to injure Crawfords.
C. F. Clark gave his experience with
peach planting and favored close cutting.
G. W. Kidder favored trimming
prunes to an inside bud to cause the
limbs to stand as straight as possible as
n that way the limb were capable of
boaring a greater weight of truit.
C. C. Williams gave several examples
of seedling peaches proving much more
thrifty and nearly as good as the budded
fruit. J. C. Wolgamot cited a case
where Crawford seedlings had proven
most successful, the trees being strong,
thrifty and hardy.
Mr. Lewolling recommends the Avery
peach as being the best peach grown.
Getting Beady for May Day.
Ciucaho, April 17. Work at the
world's fuir is boing pushed with the
utmost vigor, and beginning tonight a
double force of men will be employed,
workine niisht and day. Treasurer See-
berger today denied emphatically the
report published in somo outside cities
that the exposition authorities were
hampered for cash to pay the contract
ors and workingmen. There is an am
ple fund on hand to pay all the contract
ors and workingmen. There is an am
ple fund on hand to pay all the men un
til May 1, after which the exposition
will be a source of revenue far beyond
all current expenses.

To Bond or lotto Bond.
1 Washi.notos, D. C.April 17. "Carlisle
is understood to be opposed to an
issuance of bonds, for the present afc
least. It is his judgment that it would .
be preferable to ntilize a portion of the
gold reserve fund until it becomes
apparent that an issuance of bonds was
an absolute necessity."
Among the officials of the treasury de
partment, not the least fuar or apprehen
sion is expressed of any financial embar
rassment growing out of the gold ship
ments. They are satisfied, they say,
that the shipments are being forced by
those who will be most benefitted by an
issue of bonds, and that so soon as the
brokers and bankers are positive their
attempt to force an issue of bonds is
useless, just so soon will the gold ship
ments cease. It is understood there is some
difference of opinion between President
Cleveland and Secretary Carlisle, the
president rather leaning toward an
issuance of bonds, should the free gold
be entirely exported. It is thought,
however, that if the present month can
be tided over, the financial situation
will assume a different appearance.
Aitoria'i Railroad Agitatioi.
Astoria Or. April 17. There is ft
report, based upon what appear to be
good authority, that Corey Bros, will pay
the liens on the completed portion of
the Portland & Astoria railroad and
resume operations at an early date. As
it now stands, the road is graded eighteen
miles from Astoria and a few miles of
track are laid. The report comes from
Tom Romage, one of the foremen of
construction of the road. lie went to
Salt Lake some time ago and returned
here Friday. In conversation with a
foreman of a grading gang, who has a
claim against the company, he said
said the work on the road would
be resumed soon. Messrs. Rera
ineton and Walters, railroad men and
capitalists of Salt Lake, he continued,
were en route to Portland with funds
with which to discharge the indebtedness
of the line. Then Mr. Remington will
take charge of the work and will push
the road to completion.
Thi Oregon Faclfio'i Future.
Boise, Idaho, April 17. Sometime
ago E. W. Hadley, receiver of the
The only thing Oregon Pacific railroad wrote to Mayor
rinney, of Boise, for maps and other
information regarding this section of
the state. The request was complied
with, and in a letter acknowledging the
receipt of the documents, Mr. Hadley
says of the Oregon Pacific : "Duiing all
of its vicissitudes I don't think it was
ever so near construction and extension
toward the promised land of Eastern
Oregon and Boise as it is at the present
moment, and I feel sure that if we all
put our shoulders to the wheel with a
long pull and a pull all together we shall
ere long be making the dirt fly in your
direction."
The fact that such a statement is
made by the receiver is thought to
indicate that strong parties are prepar
ing to take hold of the road with the
view of pushing it eastward to a connec
tion with the Burlington or some other
trunk line.
The Flumi Are Not Falling.
Washington, April 14. The Oregon
office-seeker here are in the dumps,
and there is little to cheer them. Thev
have been here for some time, and yet
very few plums have fallen. Senator
Mitchell has been receiving vast quan
tities of applications from all parts of
the state, and has been filng them.
The outside office-seekers, however, will
not have the benefit of a republican sen
ator in this matter very long, for Sena
tor Mitchell goes to Oregon in a few
days. The appointment ol a minister to
Turkev yesterday was a sore disappoint
ment "to Colonel Robert A Miller, who
was here and an applicant for the place.
The East Alio Suffers.
New York, April 15. Advices from
various point in the western and north
ern parts ot the state are to tho effect
that snow began falling last night and
Btill continues, with no apparent prospect
of ceasing. It is already four to six
inches deep. The temperature is down
to 30.
