ISSUE BULLETIN ABOUT FERTILIZERS The experiment station at Pullman, Wash., has Just Issued Bulletin No. 110 on "Commercial Fertilizers," by Elton Fulmer, Washington state chemist. This bullutln is primarily the blen ial report of the inspector of fertilizers Bold in the state, as required by the fertilizer law. It contains detailed re ports of all the analyses of samples of fertilizers collected by official in spectors, or sent in by manufacturers, during the years 1911 and 1912. The analyses show that, In the main, the fertilizer dealers of the state are con scientiously complying with the terms of the law. The results of the analyses will serve as a guide to purchasers of fer tilizers, as they show the plant food values and comparative commercial value of the different brands of fertil izers sold In the state. The bulletin also contains a thor ough discussion of the principles un derlying the use of fertilizers and the value as plant food of the different elements usually present In commerc ial fertilizers. It will, therefore, serve as a valuable reference book to all who are using fertilizers. Copies of the bulletin may be obtain ed free by writing to the Director of the Experiment Station, Pullman, Wash. ADVERTISED LETTERS Hoy Armstrong.

Maguire and J. Johnson, guards. The game was closely contested and the score ran even until within a few minutes of the close of the game. At this Juncture The Dalles was one point ahead. The local boys then made a splendid rally and Blagg succeeded In throwing five goals In close succession winning the game by a wide margin. The girls who played included Nola Radliff and Doris Jenson, centers. Delia Smith and Helen Sutthoff, for wards, Esther Hnsbands and Adrlenne Epping, guards.

INVESTIGATION TO HAVE WIDE SCOPE Copies have been received here of Senator Butler's bill wfclrh ruently passd the Legislature and hich gives the Governor authority t make a full investigation Into the aMged in fringement of the O. -W. It ft N. Com pany on the old Portlard-D.illes ni;-u road. The text of the b!H follows: "An Act authorizing and directing the Governor to investigate the rights of the different claimants to the public wagon road from Portland to The Dalles along the south bank of the Col umbia River, constructed In accord ance of an Act approved October 23, 1872, and now occupied by the Oregon Washington Railroad and Navigation Company, and making an appropria tion to defray the expenses of such Investigation. Whereas, It appears that by an Act entitled "An Act to provide for the consruction of a wagon road upon the south bank of the Columbia River from near the mouth of Sandy in Multnomah county to The Dalles in Wasco county," approved October 23, 1872, there was appropriated the sum of $50,000 for the purpose of construct ing a wagon road up the south bank of the Columbia River In this state; and. Whereas, It appears that the Oregon Railroad and Navlegatlon Company, now the Oregon-Washington Railroad and Navigation Company, has without authority appropriated the wagon road bed or caused the destruction of same in many places In the construction of Its railroad system along one south bank of the- said Columbia River, and without reimbursing the state for the damage done or reconstructing the road destroyed; and. Whereas, by the said unwarranted act of the railroad company the said wagon road has ben closed to public travel; and, Whereas, it is desired by the coun ties of Hood River, Wasco and Mult nomah to construct a wagon road from the city of Portland, through Hood River to The Dalles. Be it enacted by the people of the State of Oregon: Section 1. That the Governor of this State be authorized and instructed to make a thorough Investigation into the rights of the State of Oregon, the counties of Multnomah, Hood River and Wasco and the Oregon-Washington Railroad and Navigation Company In and to the right of way formerly claimed by the State or said counties and used as a wagon road leading from the city of Portland to The Dalles occupied by the tracks or lines of the Bald rail read company, and that he be authorized and hereby directed to take such steps as may be necessary to fully protect the Interests of the pub lic and to this end he shall receive assistance from the Attorney General and the district attorneys of the said counties. Section 2. There is hereby appro priated out of any fund in State Treas ury not otherwise appropriated the sum of five hundred dollars ($500.00), or so much thereof as may be neces sary for the purpose of carrying out the provisions of this Act.

It took one hundred and sev enty millions of the stickers to "sort up." ORCHARD PROBLEMS STUDIED BY 0. A. C. Information for fruit growers and farmers troubled with scale insects on their crops has been prepared by A. L. Lovett, assistant entomologist at the Oregon Agricultural College. "For scale Insect of such type as the San Jose scale, use the lime-sul. phur of winter strength during the dor mancy season," says Mr. Lovett. The apple grower can often take his chances with the scab If the spring season promises to be dry, but pear districts will always suffer from such neglect. Three bordeaux arsenate of lead applications are necessary to In. sure a clean crop. The first should be applied when the trees are coming into bloom and up until full bloom, the second when the blossoms have fallen and the third about three weeks later. In case of considerable rain In the late spring still another spraying may be necessary. Also a lime-sulphur spraying when the buds are swelling greatly aids In control. Russeting of fruit sometimes occurs as a result of bordeaux applications. This russeting is more serious when the weather conditions are most fav orable to scab, that Is, when spring rains are abundant. Bordeaux russet ing Is never very pronounced and Is less objectionable that the scab, eve.i in the most aggravated cases. Bell flower apples are more subject to rus. seting and less injured by the scab than Newtowns, White Winter Pear mains or most other varieties. UN TUB flPOUB' fanby Post, G. A.
