Residents Sconr Districts.
Refuse Wagons Follow.
All dav loner the smoke of the clean
up campaign rolled over St. Johns and
billowed alone- the Columbia boulevard
yesterday, where the cohorts of the
citizens' committee launched the first
atssault in the big- drive which is to
weep the East Side this week and cir
cle back on the West Side next week.
The city has suspended the fire ordi
nance in each district on the day set
for the clean up. the workers in the
movement are at liberty to burn refuse
without applying for a written fire
oermit.
Jacob Kanrler. secretary of the civic
bureau of the Chamber of Commerce
assembled the executive committee of
the clean up, the fire captains of the
city, the representatives of the street
cleaning- department and the captains
from each of the districts at the St.
Johns City Hall at 8:30 in the morning
and gave the campaign the oest kick.
off" possible.
The Junk men were on the Job at the
St. Johns fire stations, and the repre
entatives of Timma, Cress & Co,
who were to buy old tin cans, and in
the afternoon the school children came
out stronpr in the work.
Lewis M. Kaskin, a schoolboy at 822
Willamette boulevard, pocketed ?9 as
the result of his Junk sales.
Schools Have Holiday.
The School Board has agreed to grant
the school children In each district
half holiday on the clean-up day in
their community. So after 1 o'clock
yesterday afternoon the boys and girls
from Kenton, Peninsula, Portsmouth
and the St. Johns schools began to
bring in Junk and tin cans, and the
plan of campaign began to work out
beautifully.
Last Thursday the flying- squadron
of 40. fire marshals came through Dts
triet A. which is St. Johns, on a house
to-house canvass to interest the citizens
in the clean-up movement.
The firemen's squadron was can'
vassing District I yesterday when the
citizens' drive struck District A. and
throughout the campaign the 40 fire
marshals will keep four districts ahead
of the clean-up, stirring up public in
terest in the work.
But that is not all.
The citizens' clean-up will strike TMs
trict B today and District C on Wednes
day, and at that time the street clean
Jng department will bowl into Diatrlc
A with five five-ton automobile ambu
lances for the removal of the con
quered garbage.
Scheme Will Continue.
Right through the city the three!
squadrons will move, the firemen in
the van. the citizens following four
days behind them, and the street clean
ing department closing the rear two
days afterward.
The street cleaning department will
handle non-burnable garbage and rub
bish, which is to be piled by the citi
zens in each district on the curbs of
paved streets in the district. Rubbish
that is not piled out ready to go when
the trucks arrive two days after the
clean-up will have to be carted away
at the expense of the districts.
The clean-up campaign of the citi
zens is on in District B today, which is
the territory bounded by East Forty
second street, Williams avenue, Fre
mont street and the Columbia boule
vard, and the fire marshals will can
vass District E. on the East Side, be
tween Sullivan's Gulch and East Stark
street.
District B school children, in Wood
lawn. Highland, Kennedy, Vernon.
Alameda and Albina Homestead schools
will have a half holiday this afternoon
to participate in the work, and the
Junk men and tin-can buyers will be at
the engine houses in that district to
buy tin cans and Junk from them.
Among those who were present at the
"kick-off" meeting in St. Johns yes

For Catarrhal Deafness
and Head Noises
Here in America there is" much suffering
from catarrh end head nolsee. American
people would do well to consider the method
moloyd by the Enffllsh to combat this in
eidlous dlsae. -eryone knows how damp
the EnirMah climate la and how dampness
effects those suffering from catarrh. In
Krsland they treat catarrhal deafness end
head noises a a constitutional disease and
vse an internal remedy for it that la really
very efficacious.
Sufferers who could scarcely hear a watch
tick tall how they had their hearlnc restored
fey this English treatment to such an extent
that the tick of a watch was plainly audible
seven or eight inches away from either ear.
Therefore, if you know someone who is
troubled with catarrh, catarrhal deafness
er head noises, cut out . this formula and
hand it to them and you will have been the
means of savins some poor sufferer perhaps
from total deafness. The prescription can
ha easily prepared at home for about 75c
and is made aa. follows:
From your druggist obtain 1 ox. of Par
mint (double strength), about T5o worth.
Take this home, and add to it U pint of
ot water and 4 ounces of granulated sugar;
stir until dissolved. Take a tablespoonful
four times a day.
Parmlnt Is used in this way not only to
reduce by tonic action the Inflammation and
swelling in the Eustachian Tubes, and thus
to equalise tbo air pressure on the drum,
but to correct .an excess of secretions in the
middle ear. and the reeults it g-lvea are
usually remarkably quick and effective.
Every person who has catarrh In any form
should give this recipe a trial .and tree
themeolves from thia destructive disease.

WASHINGTON, D. C. April 21. Red
or grreen blister-like spots appearing
in the early Spring on the foiiaare of
the apple and pear are usually iue to
the leaf blister mite. This is not an
insect, but a small animal, invisible
to the unaided eye, which attacks
standard varieties of pear and apple
trees and often inflicts serloua dam
age.
Where trees are seriously Infested,
the premature fall of both fruit and
leaves may result. In such cases
special application of lime-sulphur
wash or other spray may be neces
sary. Ordinarllyi however, the regular
orchard sprayinar is surncient xo con'
trol the mite. Badly-infested branches
of the pear trees may be cut off and
burned. Care should be taken not to
confuse the work of the mite with the
eaf-spot disease, or the results of
heavy spraying.
Describing- the leaf blister mite.
Bhowingr how it may be recognized, and
giving methods for its control, the
United States Department of Agrcul
ture has issued a new Farmers Bul
letin. No. 722. "The Leaf Blister Mite
of Pear and Apple," by A. L. (juaint
ance. The leaf blister mite passes the
Winter beneath the bud acalea. There
it waits for the opening of the buds
and attacks the young leaves as aoon
as thev push out la the Jsprlng.
The-tiny animals Dore smaii noies
from the under side of the leaves into
the interior, where they lay their eggs,
This causes the small pimple-like galls
on the upper surface of the leaves.
The spots later Increase in size, some
times to one-eighth of an inch, and on
the pear trees are red and otten Drii
liantly colored as they grow. In the
case of the apple, the eruptions lack
the more brilliant coloring and are
found more along the margin of the
leaf. In both cases the spots finally
turn brown or black, and if the pes
is abundant the leaves become ruptured
and wrinkled.
More than 250 varieties of apples are
attacked by the mite, injury being es
pecially severe on some well-known
commercial sorts, such as the Ben
Davis, the King. Baldwin. Rhode Island
Greening, and the Williams i avorlte.
Where orchards are seriously in
fested, os has been noted in New Yora
state, lime-sulphur washes give excel
lent results. They avoid the injurious
effects upon fruit buds which some
times result from the use- of oil sprays.
The wash should be applied thorough
ly, .coating the twigs and branches.
A standard solution of kerosene
emulsion may also be used. The atock
solution should be diluted with five
parts of water for spraying purposes.
One application should be given in the
late Fall, aa soon as most of the leaves
have fallen, and another in the follow.
ing Spring, before tne leaves put out
foliage. If it is possible to give only
one treatment, the sprays should be
used In the Fall. At this time many of
the mites have not yet gone to the bud
scales, but occur in the down covering
the young wood, and hence are more
easily killed.
EVERY Music Lover in Portland knew of the Clevenger Music Company, formerly located
in the Morgan Building on Broadway High rents and over ambitiousness forced the
Clevenger Music Company into Bankruptcy early in the year.
Their stock of Music, comprising more than 50,000 pieces, was the newest, the latest and the best selected in the state of
Oregon. All the popular editions, all the standard publishers, were represented, and the Clevenger stock was, without doubt,
the finest assortment ever brought West.
CLEVENGEIi FAILED! The wonderful Clevenger stock passed into possession of the courts. It was offered to the high
est bidder for spot cash. We had the outlet for this enormous collection of music, and on Saturday the stock was sold by
order of court and Eilers cash bought it in.
The Clevenger stock is now in the Eilers Store. It goes out to the public at the greatest saving ever known. Not a
single piece is reserved, everything is included at startling, smashing and unprecedented sacrifices.
