Especial honors were won fcy the Pacific northwest for repidlty of development, high quality of herds and exceptional production records, G'oaat Get Recognition. In a letter to O. M. Plummer, gen eral manager of the Pacific Interna tional Stock Show organization, Mr. Westover said breeders from all over the east and south were keenly inter ested in the remarkable development 45 f the livestock industry In the Pa cific coast states, particularly in Ore cron and Washington This section is generally recognized throughout the country as the lead ing livestock center of the future, he said. He also stated that the fame of Portland as a distribution point for high-class breeding stock is al xeady widespread, and that last month's sale of imported Guernseys at the stock show pavilion in North Portland, reports of which have gone out through the various breeding journals, attracted the attention of Guernsey breeders all over the conti nent to Portland and the progressive breeders and dairymen of the north west.

FROST DAMAGE OVERSTATED Peaches Hard Hit In Idaho Ap ples and Prunes Promising. BOISE, Idaho, May 15. (Special.) Recent frosts in the fruit belt of southern and western Idaho did not 4m he damage that was at first re ported. The peach crop was hit the hardest, say experts, and, as a re sult, the peach crop will amount to little. This Is also true of sweet cherries, apricots and some of 'the Other earlier fruits. Apples and prunes were damaged, but it is believed now that the crops KAGIC and humorous events, re sulting when a French dancer marries' the son of an arlsto cratic southern family and goes to his home below the Mason afid Dixon line to live, furnish the plot of "A Good-Bad Wife" at the Majestic. The photoplay is an adaptation of the story, "The Wild Fawn," which ran in Munsey's magazine. Fanchon la Fare, a chic Parisienne, Is the central figure of the action. At the height of her popularity as a professional dancer, she meets Will- am Carter, visiting France on a busi ness trip. The young aristocrat and the vivacious French girl fall in love. Carter returns to America alone, for he is engaged to marry a girl in his home town because of an agreement made by their parents when he and the maid were children. Fanchon follows him on the next boat, and sends him a wireless mes sage of her action. Carter waits for her in New York, and when irregu larities in her passport threaten to keep her from entering the United States, he marries her. News of the ceremony reaches Car ter's home in the quiet southern town, and causes great excitement.. The will be 75 per cent of normal and, if carters welcome the bride and bride- tl'.e weather continues favorable, one of the best the state has raised in years. Damage to fruit crops in eastern nd southern states, the horticul turists say, means a good market for Idaho and other western fruit grow ers this year. The state horticultural department r.as advised growers that the last legislature amended the law so as to provide for compulsory spraying for groom, but Fanchon s motner-in-iaw harbors a feeling of disappointment over the failure of her plans for the marr'age of William Carter. A sinister figure from Fanchon s past tracks her to her new home. This man visits the Carter home and makes insinuations about the French bride. William's younger brother kills the insulting stranger. At the murder trial the French wife fights desperately for young Carter's lib- rodling moth on pear and apple trees. I .rtv. and almost wrecks her own hap une aeparimeni proposes to emorce the statute to the letter, and growers ere expected to have their spraying done early. The law requires two sprayings. Violation of the law is a misdemeanor punishable by fines of from 25 to J3U0. piness in doing so. The play closes with a reconcliation and the usual happy fadeout. Screen Gossip. "Peter Pan" started on its way to the screen last week when John S. Robertson, director of '"Sentimental Tommy" and his wife, Josephine Lovett, continuity, writer, sailed for London to confer with Sir James M. Barrier The quartet will decide who is to play the Maude Adams role in this most famous of Barrie's plays, whether it will be filmed in London, New York. or Los Angeles. Wallace Reid has a "Jazz" room in his house, with a tiled floor, the tiles being of variegated coloring, wherein are contained his various musical in struments,' his conjuring apparatus, his books, billiard table, golf sticks and everything that, makes life a joyous affair for an evening at home, Ben Turpln, chief funster of the Mack Sennett comedies, has been made a star. While Torpin has long been considered one of the greatest attractions on the screen, this is the first time that Mack Sennett has of ficially designated him a sta'r in his own right. , The success of the photoplay, "Over the Hill," in New York, where it has outd'stanced every other film produc tion, ever shown there, has resulted in an abnormally large crop of "mother" features destined for Broad way. Corrine Griffith has started wprk on the new Vitagraph production, "The Payment," in which she is co starred with Catherine Calvert. The screen play is an adaptation of a story by Harrison Goadby, while William B. Courtney wrote the scenar'o. Web ster Campbell is producing the fea ture. James W. Morrison, leading man in the production of "Black Beauty," has returned to California, after a prolonged vacation in New York. A well substantiated rumor says Will Rogers will not remain with Goldwyn after he finishes "The Poor Relation" the last he expects to make for this company. Although he refuses to make any statement concerning his plans it is well understood he will organize his own company. The important post of directing George Arliss in "Disraeli" has been handed to Henry Kolker, who will take up the reins of directorship im mediately. James Rennie has been engaged as leading man forHppe Hampton in the picture version of the Fannie Hurst story, "Star Dust.' Rupert Hughes is 'writing his sec ond photoplay for Tom Moore. "From the Ground Up" is its title and the author is now at work on the continuity. - The combination spray system de veloped at the Oregon experiment sta tion . in 1908 is now the basis of the spraying practice of the entire coun try, according to V. I. Safro, field manasrer of the Tobacco Bv-oroducte & Chemical company of Louisville, Ky, "Prior to that time the elements of labor were smaller factors in econ omy of application than now, and the importance of the time element date of application and period within which spraying must be finished to be fully effective was not appreciated at its full value," he said. 'Hence sprays were applied one at a time at such Intervals as could be planned for. It was not at all unusual," Mr. Safro points out, "for a grower to spray as many as four different times with four different 'spray materials for four different insect or disease troubles. Lack of Economy Sensed. "The gross lack of economy in this practice was sensed by the Oregon agricultural college station entomol ogists and plant pathologists, who be gan investigations of the possibilities of combining two or more .of these sprays and putting them on at a sin gle application. While even at that time the saving in labor was consid erable, it has become since that time one of the main elements of spraying costs. "The most important reason why combinations were valuable in certain cases was that unless the spray was applied at the right time in the right way for the known trouble, it was likely to prove of little or no value Where the spraying intervals were short and troubles numerous, the combination spray offered the best possibilities for getting the sprays all on within the vital period. "The first nicotine, lime-sulphur, lead-arsenate spray combination ever successfully used was worked out at the Oregon Agricultural college sta tion," declared Mr. Safro. "The com bination practice reached its high water mark, at least for many years, three years later at the Hood River branch station, when iron sulphid was added to the other materials." Spray In General Vme. The first plant in which the lime- sulphur, lead-arsenate combination was ever mixed on a commercial scale was pointed out by Mr. Safro as still in use on the station grounds. The fact that lime-sulphur was brought into large use as a fungicide under Dr. A. B. Cordley, now dean of agriculture, was also observed. And now," said Mr. Safro, "lime sulhpur alone and in combination worked out here 13 years ago is in general use all over the United States as well as in many districts of Aus tralia. New Zealand. South Africa, parts of Europe and China and Japan In consequence of their pioneer work in sprays and spraying the sta tion, specialists are held as final au thority on many questions connected with the manufacture and use of lead arsenate and combination sprays. Wherever spray makers and users meet in convention, the Oregon men are quoted as determining factors, Mr. Safro declared. He estimates a 90 per cent apple crop, a 70 per cent pear crop and a 10 per cent peach crop. Benton county shipped about 800 cars in 1920, which were considered half a crop. In 1919 the total ship ment amounted to 1650 cars, which was a record yield. Trees were young er then, and each tree should bear 10 to 20 per cent more fruit this year than in 1919. All frost danger is now past and it Is believed that Mr. Bai ley's estimate is conservative. The present outlook and the activity . of appie Duyers Indicate that Yakima valley apples will bring u good price next fall. If so, many orchards in the Prosser district will yield a revenue that will pay for themselves, ac cording to present land prices. VETCH APHIS APPEARING Growers Advised to Xotify Oregon Experiment Station. The field vetch aphis is beginning to show up in serious numbers in some fields in the Willamette valley, according to the agricultural college experiment station. "No satisfactory method has been developed for the control of the pest," u is declared, "but specialists are at work on the problem at the present time. Growers bothered with this aphis should notify the experiment station so that they may be informed of any possible methods developed for control." nrrtAM clover disfavored Variety Xot Likely to Displace Oth ers in Oregon. Several years' trials of annual white sweet clover, the much-talked-of Hubam clover of the eastern states, on the Oregon experiment station grounds under Oregon conditions, do not indicate that it is to displace the other common clovers. The trials , were conducted by H. A. Schoth of the United States department of ag riculture co-operating in forage crop Investigations at the college. "It makes a very much more rapid rrowth the first year than, either the biennial white sweet clover or the yellow flowering sweet clover, but the growth soon gets pretty woody. says the. report. It does not appear to be valuable for hay, and it ma tures seed in the Willamette valley too late to be of much promise as a seed crop. It may develop into seed crop where the season is long and warm. It does not die down the first year In many instances, and pi that sense is hardly a true annual, even though It does produce seed. A big difficulty likely to be en counred in growing this clover is clover root rot, which thins out the stand of common biennial white sweet clover as well as Hubam. TOMATOES BADLY DAMAGED IMosalc Disease Found Both Conta gious and Infectious. Mosaic disease of tomatoes is both contagious, and infectious and causes a great deal of damage when once fairly started, say the Oregon Agri cultural college experiment station authorities. "No effective means of checking the spread of the disease has been found, and In order to protect him self the buyer of plants should learn whether the growers of them had mosaic trouble the previous year and whether the yung plants have been exposed to infection. If there is any danger of infection the grower should grow the seedlings himself rather than take a chance of buying diseased plants. "The disease is hard to detect in young plants, but the leaves become yellow, spotted and curled as the plants grow older. It is caused by an organism or an unbalanced condi tion which is carried in the sap of the plant and affects the chlorophyl of the leaves. "An accurate description of the dis ease is given in the Third Crop Pest and Horticultural Report, which may be had on application to Oregon Agri cultural college, Corvallis. - PRUNE SALES AHE LARGE OREGON GROWERS SHIP 8,296,- 00 7 POCXDS TO APRIL- 25.

BROCCOLI AREAS LARGER IXDFSTRr GROWS RAPIDLY IX WILLAMETTE VALLEY. 475 Additional Acres to Be Planted . This Season; Some Growers Xet $300 an Acre. The success ot broccoli has resulted in the rapid development of that in dustry in the Willamette vauey, ana from present indications there will be about 475 additional acres pianieu this summer. The Oregon Growers' Co-oDerative association reports that it has furnished its members seed for planting 350 acres.' In addition, sea has been secured from other sources for planting of about 125 acres. Having heard of the success of growers near Independence this past season, and or tne KoseDurg growers, all of whom made about $300 an acre, meetings of farmers have been held at Salem and otner points wnere broccoli growing has been discussed. In addition to the acreage in the Salem district, members of the Ore- gdn Co-operative Growers' association have received seed lor me planting of the following acreage: Independ ence district, 115; Amity, 36; tlck reall district in Polk county, 35; Sher idan, 42; Chemawa, 20. Already Roseburg nas announced a large increase in acreage, estimated at between 200 and 250 acres, com pared to 160 acres this past season. Through the efforts of the associa tion and Senator Charles L. McNary the United States department of agri culture, bureau of markets, has as signed to western Oregon with Salem as headquarters K. K. Fallthorp of Spokane. He is a specialist in the study of preservation of fruit and vegetables, and this winter will take up the special shipping problem rela tive to broccoli. ADVICE OS SPHAYIXG GIVEX Coddling Sloth Spray Declared to Be Needed Before Cups Close. HOOD RIVER, Or., May 15. (Spe cial.) Leroy Chllde, superintendent of the Hood-River experiment station, has been urging Oregon orchardists to apply the calyx spray for control of coddling moth immediately the blos soms drop their petals. He declared that the spray, to be effective, must be applied before the calyx cups close. Mr. Childs said: "Many growers had trouble in con trilling worms last season. Our study indicates that more attention must be given to the covering' of the tops of the trees, as this seems to be where worms gain their greatest -headway. Where the spray gun is employed the SCLPHCR ADVISED FOR MITES Experiment Station Recommends Use of Lime-Sulphur. The foliage mite can be controlled by lime-sulphur spray as applied in early season for other troubles, the experiment station has announced. Sulphur dust also was declared good. "It Is reasonable to assume that sul phur in any form that is safe for the tree will check this mite, which often causes the leaf to be undersized and contracted," experts of the station declared. "On pears the leaves turn brown and leathery. The foliage later tends to turn black and drop." Crop Planting Brisk... ABERDEEN, Wash.. May 15. (Spe- clal.) Crop planting in" this county is now proceeding briskly, following an unusually wet spring, which has delayed operations. Beyond the delay in planting no damage has been done, farmers report. About 250 acres have been planted to berries this spring in the county, and while these will not bear this year, a large acreage plant ed last year will come into bearing. and this will add greatly to the pro duction of the county in this line. (janners are preparing to handle a greatly increased output of both cul tivated and wild berries. GEOLOGISTS TO CAMP Students at University to Make Study of Rogue River Valley. MED FORD, Or., May 15.
