TREES FREE OF DISEASE NO WHITE PINE RUST IN WEST, SAYS OFFICIAL. JOr. Metcalf Making: Tour of In spection for Purpose of De tecting: Disease. The efficient inspection service at all ports on the Pacific coast, has served to keep out plant diseases in this part of the country, says Dr. H. Metcalf of Washington. D. C, who is in the west investigating tree dis eases. In this way, he says, the Pacific coast .has been saved from the sweeping epidemics among trees which have destroyed whole forests in the eastern states. The main object of this trip, says Dr. Metcalf, s to see if there- is any white pine blister rust among the .trees on this coast. So far, Dr. Met calf has not discovered any signs of the disease here. He is afraid that it may have been imported Into the west on current bushes or on orna mental white pine trees. If the rust had been imported here it would mean that the sugar pine and west ern white pine would be exterminated eventually, he explained yesterday. The government recently stopped the shipping of these trees west of the Mississippi river, he said, but he feared that the disease might have reached the west from trs imported several years ago. The disease has bothered trees in the east for the past years. Tt. Metcalf came to Portland yes terday from San Francisco. He will be here a few days and then will go to Spokane. v. FURS AND MYSTERY BY N. M. UNGAR. ' It may seem like a small thing to the purchaser of furs, but neverthe less a few weeks' difference in the time a pelt is taken makes a tremen dous difference in the finished fur piece. If you were selecting a fur -could you tell whether the animal from which the pelt was taken was cap tured at the right time of the year or whether it was caught too early or too late?- P(robably not. Your furrier could but would he? A pelt captured early in the fall, before the temperature settles down below the freezing point, is unprime. and is known as a "blue pelt." The fur of a blue pelt is invariably imma ture and the leather is weak. Had the animal been taken but a few weeks later the fur would have been far nvore valuable and would give im measurably more wear. Pelts taken a few weeks late that is, after the temperature has risen to above freezing are known as "shedders " This is because the ani mal when taken was about to shed its heavy winter coat. Even after the skin has been taken from the animal, dressed, dyed and made up into the finished fur it will continue to shed. This makes it poor in wearing quali ties. Any furrier who knows his busi ness knows that shedders and blue pelts are almost worthl&ss, and if he is art all honest with his patrons he will not buy them at any price. Until laws are enacted prohibiting the cap ture of animals before their skins -are prime, some furriers will continue to buy these furs because of their cheap ness, selling them at prices asked for prime skins at more reliable fur stores. To the average purchaser of furs there is b,ut one safe course open select an honest fur dealer who knows his business. Beware of the Wolf in Sheep's Clothing. (To Be Continued.) Copyright, 1920.
