The Ore gon Lumber company resumed opera tions Monday after the burn-out of a part of lta logging road and the burn ing of an engine and several logging cars that occurred about 10 days ago, in which Dan LaRoque, engineer on the logging engine, lost his life. under Lieutenant Roy Doble. Com panies A and C -will drill Saturday night. Quarters have been assigned each company, and the men will be enrolled as fast as applications are received. There are now more than 200 on the muster rolls but 450 are wanted. This force of men will con stitute the only state military force in Oregon, and as they are all veter ans It will not take long to have them In shape for active duty If need arises. In an effort to stamp out the web worms, the caterpillars which are de stroying thousands of shade trees throughout the city. Mayor Baker is calling on tree owners to spray the trees and remove the large nests hang ing from the branches. Owing to the long dry period the pests have spread by the thousands un til now there are few trees, par ticularly on the west side Of the river, which have not been marred by the web-worms. Several large fruit trees near the south park blocksjare so bad ly infested with the web-orms that It is with difficulty that the natural foliage can be dist'.ngulshed. Police- to Wotif y Tree Owner Fearing that the spread of the web worms will mean the destruction of many of the trees. Mayor Baker today instructed Chief of Police Johnson to have his men immediately notify tree owners to do everything possible to kill t,he pests, and ordered Park Super intendent Convlll to clean up the trees in the parks which are noticeably in fested with the caterpillars. Many of the infested trees are in private yards and the park bureau is without Jurisdiction here. The police bureau, however, has the authority to have the trees cleaned or destroyed on the ground that they are a menace in the city. Park Superintendent Convlll says that the pests can be easily destroyed by spraying with a solution of arsenate of lead, or by burning the nests. Kero sene or any good tree spray is effec tive, he declares. Heavy Kalns Will Help Convlll further explains that the first heavy rain will wash many of j AAAAAAAAAAJ the caterpillar neata from the 'trees, but will not destroy the pests. He says that rain will assist In stopping the spread of the web-worms but that the trees now infested, will not be helped. The pests usually weave their weba near the end of the tree branches and within these webs make their homes. Several thousand caterpillars are found within each web or nest. The pests increase and spread rapidly. Miniature lighthouses, which flash red lights when buttons In their bases are pressed, have been designed for restaurant tables to summon waiters.
