DEADLY MIGHT CAN BE CHECKED BT Plant Pathologist Says East ern Oregon Blight Should Be Attacked at Once, Oregon Agricultural College. Corval- 11s, Or., Sept. 1. The deadly flrebllght, characterized as the worst disease that affects apple and pear trees, can be checked by organized campaigns con ducted on the line of the standard treatment, according to Professor H. S. Jackson, plant pathologist of the Ore gon Agricultural College. This treat- mint consist In carefully cutting out all diseased parts of the tree, thorough ly disinfecting the wounds with a solu tion of one part of bloloride of mercury to one thousand part of water, and burning all diseased brush. As the dis ease la known to be prevalent in every eastern Oregon oounty with the possi ble exception of Wasco, it should be at tacked without further dolay. The following methods of organiza tion and attack have been successfully employed by Professor Jackson: Pub lic meetings were bold for the purpose of interesting growers in the matter and means of organizing the campaign. Aft er discussion, oommltteea were appoint ed to draft petitions to the oounty oourt asking for the necessary, appro priation to finance the campaign. One or more experts in cutting out and treating the disease were secured to give demonstrations In one orphard in each fruit district of the county. A number of local fruit growers and or ohaVdlsts were present at these demon strations and learned how to detect the disease, ascertain it extent cut out the diseased parts, and disinfect the wounds. Later, these local orchardlsts undertook the work of cleaning up all the orchards In their neighborhood. Flrebllght is a bacterial disease. spreads through the bark, and enters healthy tissue only through wounds. cracks In the bark, the tip of very young shoots, or stigmas of blossoms. The bacteria live only In old cankers, and If all cankers are destroyed in the fall, there will be no flrebllght In that orchard the following spring. Hence the necessity of observing the following dlroctlons; Cut away more wood than appears to be diseased; cut out all wounds and abrasions, and disinfect; remove ell cankers during the fall, and disinfect all cutting tools and the hands after every operation; and burn all the dtnertsed brush.

FUR DURING SEASON Threshing Completed or Well Under Way' and Results Are Highly Satisfactory, Sp.ctal to The Journal.) Indepedence, Or., Sept 1. Polk eou ty crops have o far "panned out" ex cellently. It baa been several yeara since such a large crop of all kind of grains was harvested In this section of tbe Willamette valley, and the results secured by the farmers who have had tbelr grain threshed are highly satis factory. In the Suver section nearly one-half of tbe threshing is completed. Wheat made over 20 bushels an acre as a general average. Winter oats averaged 37 bushels. In that part of Polk county, vetch did unusually well, averaging, It Is said, about S3 bushels per acre. The best grain in that section Is yet un threshed. In the Oak Dale seotlon Charles Hub bard raised 234 bushels of gray oats on nine acres of bottom land and 108 bushels of white wheat on four acres of bottom land. Ben Thompson raised 300 bushels of white and gray oat on 10 acres of hill land that has been planted to crops for many years. The white oats made the best yield. Two hundred bushels of white bats were raised by O. E. Dennis on four acres of rolling land cleared last summer. He secured 25 bushels of wheat on one acre of bot tom land. Tbe grain was sown about the first of March. James Wilson bad 76 acres of oats and vetch, the vetch mak ing an extra heavy yield. One load of wheat bundles, belonging to Joseph Murphy In the Oak Dale seo tlon, made 18 buwhels. Although that section is well suited to profitable grain raising, more hay is raised there than grain. Larkln Orlce, a farmer and fruit grower living one mile north of Eola, who has threshed several of the Jargest field in that vicinity, says crop condi tions there are excellent Thomas W. Brunk has a field which yielded over 25 bushels to the acre, and hi oats averaged 42 bushels per acre. Hay averaged two and one-half ton an acre. The oat yield at the Cronley farm was 49 bushels.
