Ohilherg Lands Balling t. Secretary Richard Achillea Bellinger of the department of the Interior was forced Into politics by former President Roosevelt, and now he may be aacrl flced upon the altar of the men who are supposed to be booming the ex president for a second elective term, according to Banker J. EX Chllberg of Seattle, who has been in this city for several days on business. "Out In Seattle we trust and believe 5n Secretary Balltnger and I feel .sure that the people of Washington do also,'" said Mr. Chilberg. "I know how muoh money Secretary Balllnger has and I know how he got It and I know he got It honestly. He did not want to come to Washington as land commissioner, but was practically commanded to do so by the then Presi dent Roosevelt."

W. A. Storey, of Portland, ' one of the most successful amateur rosarlana 1n Ore gon, delivered an Interesting and In tructlve lecture on Rose Culture. Mr, Storey went thoroughly Into all the de tails of planting, cultivating and-caring for rose bushes. The lecture was-large ly attended, enthusiastically received by the rose growers of Oregon City and vicinity. . ; - Mr. 8torey said In part: "While I 'have been growing roses for twenty-five years, and. nave' met with some success as an amateur, yet the question presents Itself; .Can I In struct others to do as well as I have done? But I have accepted, ot In other words, have put my hand to the plow will not turn back, but will try to tell you how I grow my rosea. JTo Credit Due. "1 da not claim any great credit for my success, except for the faithful labor that I have given to attain these results. ' Oregon soil and Oregon climato are the wonder workers that have mado us world famous In the production of this queen of flowers. - a have always associated the growth of the rose In Its early form aa a bud, with the child, say, of two or three years and Its maturer growth with that of tne young la." and as It fades and grows into the spent rose, with our older life and the decay which naturally falls to man and woman. "Now let us get Into the real work of growing a rose. , v "First Let us select a piece of ground that la somewhat sheltered from the strong easi. wina ana wnere me sun shine can reach them at least in the fore part of the day, and having selected such a spot, let us prepare the ground. Describes Method. We will have to dig a trench, say, two feet deep, and wide enough to per mit the placing of the roots of the rose without colling them up- or crossing them, great care should be given this one part of planting the rose, never coll two roots together, but spread them apart and then we must have aome drainage, and this Is a very important part of the rose growing. Where drain tile cannot be usod, course gravel from the size of an egg-up to six or eight Inches In diameter can be used in the bottom. Then put In loom say,, eight to ten Inches, then three or four lnches-l of good sharp river sand, on which plant the bush.

Louise Tetrazulnl, the grand opera star, to appear In the supreme court on March li, and be examined before trial In connection with a suit for alleged breach of contract, brought by Isador Lerner. Lerner has sued the prima donna, alleging that he has been dam aged to the extent of $38,000. The con tract which she violated, It is claimed, was an engagement to tour the United States In 1904 under the management of Imer, at a salary of $500 a night. Instead Of doing' this, the plaintiff declares that Mme., Tetraxztnl broke the contract' to sing in Venexuela. She has filed an .answer, In which she says she was prevented from carry ing the bush on t.,e sand, not to allow ln. ou tne iitwt by reaaon of Ler- ' I rAW m rt rtl aa.n1 htrtlHflttns any manure to touch the roots but cover ) ' . . the root with a loam or olay soil mixed I somewhat with sand, say, cover to the having loosened the ground with the , ... ...v.. . , .i'fork and' you will find that this will nut the manure on ton of th. around, help the growth of any bush If prac tramp the soil well around the bush and If the weather Is warm and the soil appears somewhat dry, give It a good drenching with cold water. Gives Demonstration. ' Xet us prepare a bush for the ground now by cutting back the ahoots and here let me say that I .have brought a bush with me and will cut and prepare this bush for the ground In order that you may see how I do It If it doea not agree with your ideas, tnen do It your way and I shall be Just as. well pleased. Aa you can see we have cut back quite a portion of the longest canes and have also taken out a' portion of the center growth which permits the light and air to circulate freely through tbe bush, "i'he majority of rose-growers claim 1 tlced say twice a week in the blooming season, as roses are gross feeders and it w., more than repay the extra care hy producing finer blooms. I have found this, after years of experimenting, to produce the best results." Upon the conclusion of the address Air. Storey, upon request of the presi dent of the society, gave a list of the 60 varieties of roses that are beet adapted to the soil and climate of 'Oregon. : , Kalama Grange to Hold Fair.

I do my cutting In the latter part erf October and ...e month of No vember, for the reason that the harsh winds of winter have less opportunity to weave tbe bush back and forth and sometimes destroy it by opening the ground around the bush and allowing the frost to penetrate to the roots. Again by cutting in October and Novem ber I can make my selection of cuttings to put In the ground and grow new bushes from the next year. Plant in October. "Now, we have a bush planted and this should have been done In October or November; It has also been cut' back and Is ready for the winter. Let us protect It frohj the cold air or the cold I lnd by piling lots of manure about It, and speaking of fertilizers I will say ; there Is but one that I use and that 1 Is well rotted cow manure and lots of it. "Now, we have gone through the win-J ter, and spring is apprvchlng which makes us think that the time has come ' hen we should go to work on our bushes. Green leaves are making their appearance and the time has come for s to take out the dead wood add heavy center. Thla having been done we will then proceed to spade our ground, and here let me say. the ground around the rose bush should never be cut with a spade. It should be loosened up with, a coarse fork, such as Is used for digging potatoes, because yoo can get close to the bush with a fork and not injure the roots, while with a spade and a little careless Work we frequently lop off a very important factor to the growth of the rose for that seaaon. Ore en Worm Sea true tire. "Now the trouble has Just begun, for with the advent of the nice new shoots also comes the advent of that terror to the Bose-grower, the green worm, known as the leaf roller,' ji little green worm, say one-half to three-quarters of an Inch In length that will coll itself up In the green leaves and eat holes In them, and then drop Into the bud be fore it Is matured and destroy a rose I that perhaps would have been the finest in our collection. "There is but one way to successfully cope with this pest and that Is by going over the bushes carefully night and morning and picking off each individual leaf that contains a roller and crush ing It 'Then -we nave with us always -the little green aphis, that will gather around a new shoot so thickly that 1 would seem Impossible to ever get rid of them. To Conquer Pests. "To conquer these pets I have adopted the method of an old rosarian who taught me the greater part of what I have already found to be successful, and that was Mr. George Forsythe. 'His method Is to take the hose with cold ' water, put on a pretty fair force, hoid j ie hand behind the bush to keep from breaking off the tender shoots and I throw the water directly on to the aphis and thoroughly wash the bush. 1 About tho second or third application of this kind will so thoroughly cleanse your busnes tnat you are trouniea no more for the season. "Mildew Is another troublesome thing, but X have .found that there are but few varitles that are attacked -with mildew to any extent Her Majesty, The Marhlonesa of Londonderry,' the "Mar garet Dickson' and "Captain Christy,' jthoee are the only verities that I have had any trouble with and I find that by sprinkling flower of sulphur over them In the early morning while the -dew is on that it does away to a greater or less extent with the mildew. Black Spot Corneal . "Then comes the black spot which Is a black spot that we find has come In a night almost on the foliage of the bush; about tbys only thing that one can do for this that I have found Is to take a sharp pair of clippers and nip off the affected leaf, and Tiere let me say that a shoot, or a rose, or a bud, or any other part of the bush, should riever be broken off, ,buti.aliould be taken off with a sharp Instrument a good sharp pair of scissors, a good, sharp pocket knife, a pair of nippers, or anything that is sharp should be j used, but no part of the bush should ever be broken or torn off. "Watering Let me say here a few words In relation to watering the plant read an article recently, published In one of our papers which said that roses should not have too much water; to water once a week was sufficient and that this should be done in the early morning. When to Water Bashes. . tilth this I quite disagree. In hot weather I water my bushes every other evening, and. thn only in the evening after the sun has disappeared, throw ing the water into the air from the hose -and allowing It to fall in a spray ke rain. "' If I find a bush that Is not doing as well as It should, I mix manure with water, making a thin liquid and pour this on the ground around the bush, first Two Special Trains to the Avia tion Grounds.
