PORTLAND'S PORCIXE PROCLIV
ITIES. There is much food for thought in
the following ringing editorial from
tho Daily Astorian, in which the
selfishness of Portland Is arraigned.
Tho grave charge is also made that
tho recent change in engineers by
which Colonel Roessler was detailed
to another office, was a result of some
fine Italian work by tho Portland
porkers who will not tolerate any
thing that does not pay tribute to
that city. Colonel Roessler was a
good friend of Coos Bay and was giv
ing honest offlclal notlco and en
dorsement of harbor work here in his
reports. Soon after, came notice that
Colonel Roessler was to bo sent to
another point and now comes dis
closures that the change was made
becaus.o Colonel Roessler was giving
more attention to tho duties of his
office, and prosecuting tho work in
all quarters without due deference to
tho coterie of Portland promoters
who desired everything shaped as
they wished It. Hero is the article
as published in the Astorian:
"That the Columbia Valley Is to
denied the presence of tho great fly
ing fleet of war vessels in which pub
lic Interests is deeply centered, Is a
foregone conclusion with every man
who knows anything about the care
that is given such priceless posses
sions. Tho Government will not risk
the ships on tho Columbia bar nor In
tho Columbia river because there is
not sufllciont water to make their
visit assuredly safe. It Is a bitter
disappointment to hundreds of thou
sands of people in Oregon, but oven
that Is infinitely cheaper than the
piling up of ships that cost from $1,
000,000 to $10,000,000 on tho bars
and shoals of our great waterway.
"Wo may thank Portland, for the
denial. She has blown hot and cold
on tho Columbia river and bar Im
provements for lo, these many years,
and tho rier has been channelled to
meet tho bar, while the bar has been
kept back so as to admit nothing that
could not ascend tho river to Port
land; hence, at tho supreme moment
of desire, wo aro confronted with
the keenest turn-down In our history.
"And by way of accentuating this
situation, wo may call attention to
the fact that when Portland realized
that Colonel Roessler was ono of
those engineers who stand for tho
quick and wholesome prosecution of
their duties and was making a toll
ing record In jetty-work and bar im
provement, sho gets quietly to work
to havo him supplanted, and by a
man who, whllo an ablo master of his
profession, is socially ninennblo nnd
rather more given to dawdling over
tho job that has already taken far
too many years to complete. Two
moro years of Colonel Roesslor's
program at tho jotties, would have
soon them completed, and 30 lo 10
foot of water on tho barrier; and that
wa-J altogether too good a thing for
tho lower Columbia, vlth a beggarly
2C toot of water In tho two rivers
tha- flew between Portland and tho
set.
"nut how long tho United States
Govormnont Is going to bo hood
wlnkeu on this proposition is to bo
Been, j ut wo do hope for tho credit
of tho State and hor normal expan
sion commercially, somo innn may
reach tho Congress and toll tho
straight truth about tho Columbia
river and tho Columbia bar. Cod
knows the story Is well enough
known In all Northern Oregon; It Is
ono of tho foiihst traditions of the
State, despite tho Infrequent and In
spired chirpings of tlu Portland
press for bar a -Vlvor improvements.
"Give us a 1 0-foot channel from
tho spii-eunatures of the bar to the
rock-harriers of The Dailos and the
Fnlls of tho Willamette! That's our
plea; tho plea that Portland will not
and daro not echo!
"Tlio Armada will not bo here.
Evon our groat Juno Hood will not
tempt it In and up tho rlvor. Port
land has taken care of that, alright,
nlrlcht!"

After tho Honeymoon.
"Pa," Inquired a small boy on the
Oaklnnd boat, "what's n simoon?"
"Huh!" grunted tho man without
looking from his paper. "Simoon's
sand storm on the dessert, dreaded by
travelers."
"And, pa. what's a honeymoon?"
"Honeymoon's rice storm on a train,
'lijoyed by travelers."
"Then a honeymoon's something like
l simoon, ain't It, pa?"
"Guess so. Keep quiet Don't ask
so many fool questions. Look at tho
on gulls."
"But ain't they n good deal alike, pa
-simoons and honeymoons?"
"Ugh. huh. both full of hot air! Most
honeymoons become simoons In a few
rears. When tho ' honey's gone the
ilgh'H left."
"Pa. wore you ever on a honey
moon?" "Peicy, if you don't stop pestering
me with questions I'll never bring you
over to the city again."
"Well, ma said she had a honeymoon,
nnd It was like a dream, and all tho
rust of It's been a nightmare." San
Francisco Chronicle.
Lifo Saving and Law.
The Roumanians are as curious in
some things as the Chinese. A girl
who fell into the river and was swept
down by the current finally seized a
bush on the bank and drew herself
to shore. The owner of the hind on
which the bush grew Immediately
claimed a reward of 4 shillings because
his bush was there and had saved hor.
Her father refused to pay, and there
was a lawsuit. What the law has to
decide is whether drowning people can
make use of bushes on tho bank with
out paying for tho same or whether the
assistance of the said bush is worth a
certain sum of money.
In China If n person falls into the
water no one must help him out, but
at the same time a spectator can bo im
prisoned for not advising the victim to
stay on dry land.

The Navel Orange.
For a product of nature a California
navel orange as It graces tho breakfast
table or the push cart Is about the
most artificial thing in the world. It
Is also a very striking Illustration of
the fact that whllo beauty may be
only skin deep It counts for a whole
lot. To begin with, tho navel orango
of California Is an exotic, reaching Its
present habitat after devious wander
ing. And, be It ever so sweet tasting,
If Its skin has had Its beauty marred It
scarcely ever gets farther than tho
orchard whore It grew. Not only that,
but even tho most comely ones bofore
they are boted and shipped are brush
ed by machinery and polished and
otherwise fussed with to give them a
beauty which mere nature never would
havo provided. William R. Stewart in
Techulcal World.

SAN JOSE SCALE.
Stage
Insects That Are at a Certain
Survive the Winter.
The full grown San Jose scale li
about the size of a pin head, quite flat
round (circular) In outline and varying
in color, but usually grayish brown. II
lies closely against the bark, leaves oi
fruit, nnd tho part seen Is not reallj
the insect Itself, but tho shell or seal"
which covers It. If this scale be lift
ed with a pin a very small orang'
yellow speck will be found beneath It
and this Is the scale Insect.
When whiter sets in the Insects ar
present In all stages of growth, fron
those Just born to those which are fti
grown and are themselves producln
young. The winter, however, kills n
except those which are from about oil'
half to two-thirds grown, so that i:
living adults can usually be found I
early spring.

but when the sap begins to flow freely
In tho spring the young scales which
survive resume their feeding on the
sap which was interrupted by the cold
weather and complete their growth,
becoming adult in Juno. Reproduction
then begins, the young being born
alive, and this Continues for about six
weeks, each female producing an aver
age of about -100 young. The young
Insects are very small and after their
birth crawl out from beneath the scale
where they were born and move about,
seeking a place on which to settle
This" takes rather moro than a day on
an average, and during this time these
tiny yellow crawling young may be
seen wandering about. On finding a
good location they become quiet, and
each works its long beak through the
bark or surface of the leaf or fruit, as
tho case may be, to where the sap of
the tree can be obtained, and the in
sect sucks this sap for its food. Its
legs now disappear, its body becomes
hemispherical, and white waxy threads
appear over Its back. These mat to
gether to form a white covering or
scale, and such young, recently formed
scales are often very noticeable. Lat
er as the Insect grow? It mobs or sheds
Its skin, and the molted skin Is added
to the scale, which because of this and
by weathering becomes darker, grayish
or oven blackish, often showing ring-
of lighter ami darker color. The center
of the scale Is the highest point, and
around this is a circular depressed
ring. If the insect beneath the scale
Is a female, the scale will remain near
ly circular In outline; If a male, tho
scale Is moro oval or elongated In form.
In a little more than a mouth from
the time of its birth the Insect becomes
adult and In turn begins to produce
young, tho first ones appearing at about
the same time as the last ones of the
preceding generation. These young de
velop in the same way ns did their
parents, thus giving a constant succes
sion of young from the middle or end
of Juno In Massachusetts till winter
stops the process. II. T. Feruald,

Flowering Shrubs,
Tho only pruning that may be consid
ered essential for ordinary shrubbery
Is that of thinning out the plants by
removing old branches that are about
destitute of young growths. Tho worst
treatment they can receive Is that of
shortening the summer growths dur
ing tho fall, especially that of shearing
them into round, stubby forms with
hedge shears, at once destroying the
natural, graceful beauty of the plauts
and removing the best of their flower
ing shoots just ns they aro preparing
for an abundance of blossoms. For ex
ample, the forsythla, usually a freo
growing, hardy plant, will make shoots
severnl feet In length during summer,
will bo covered with flower buds to
ward fall and prepared to blossom
profusely early in the following year.
Any pruning which shortens tho shoots
simply removes tho flowering wood
and cannot In any degree benefit the
plant. Deutzlas, spiraeas, welgelas
and similar flowering shrubs require
the same kind of treatment. Tho
bushe should be kept rather open, so
that tho branches may receive full
benefit of light and air. This Is ef
fected by pruning out some of the old
est branches or thinning out some of
the young shoots where they are too
dense, and these should be cut close
to the base of the plant, which will
encourage the growth of vigorous flow
ering branches, thus keeping tho plant
tlorll'erous from year to yetr, L. C.
