FCSBS ARE ASKED Inspector Jones addressed a report to Commissioner J. M. Mann Monday, in which he requested the council to pass an ordinance' appropriating sufficient funds to combat tha earwig nuisance. A portion of his report was as follows: The most effective remedy found so far is common kerosene, which, if used as a spray, will kill all i the pests it comes In contact with. Furthermore, the earwig will not return! to this spot so long aa there remains the least odor of oil. If all the residents whose places, are Infested with earwlgsi will comply with the following rules, I we stand a good chance of controlling and possibly exterminating the menace : ) " 1 Locate the haunts frequented by the earwig in the day time, which are to be found in such places as meter boxes, cracks : in trees -under old bark, fence posts, wainscswting and; cracks In houses-, at base'of large trees and under most anything that will afford shelter from light and wind. Wherever a col lection of small black specks are notice able (like mustard seed) j you can be sure there are scores of earwigs lo cated nearby. USE SPRAY FREELT I 2 Pick out these hauntsi mark them, spray every other one with coal oil. This will keep insects out of this place and drive them to their other haunts. 8 Pour scalding water over places not covered with coal oil every i morning and afternoon. - (I recommend the hot water at this time because so far I have not been able to obtain a solution that is cheap enough for funeral oho. 4 Use traps such as small flower pot turned uoside down with little fine straw or excelsior in bottom, setting on stick about s to 10 incnes aoove ground near flowers ; short pieces :of hose with top end plugged with cord ; sacks tied around trunk of tree or post about foot from ground.

CANADIAN GUEST RECALLS PIONEER DAYS OF OREGON Early days In the Oregon country with their hazards and trying ex periences were recalled . by the visit In Portland of Judge C. O. Ermant tpger of St. Thomas, 'Ontario, Cana da, who haa been the guest of his brother-in-law, MacDonaid Potts, for a few days.' ' t ' Judge! Srmantinger, who has been a sealous student of Oregon history and has also been a valued contrib utor to the Oregon Historical' society, is a son- of Edward B. Ermantinger and a nephew of Frank Ermantinger, who were in the employ of the Hud son Bay company as early as 1818. Edward E. Ermantinger. father of the Portland visitor, twice made the trip across the continent during the 10 years of his association with the early trading post which was then lo cated at old Fort Vancouver. The trip at that time took three months, and he kept an accurate Journal of his daily experiences, which; has since been published as a document of great his torical interest by the Royal Society of Canada. Judge Ermantinger has pre served the original manuscript among a. number of other records of the ex periences of his father and his uncle, who were intimately associated with Dr. John McLoughlin, with whom Frank Ermantinger went to the pres ent site of Oregon City, where they built the first mill. In 1838 Edward E. Ermantinger went to St. Thomas, Ont, where he subsequently settled, married and made his home the re mainder of his life. Oh his departure he was succeeded at Fort Vancouver by James Douglas, whd afterward be came Sir James Douglas, governor of Vancouver Island, British Columbia. About 1840, when Frank : Ermantinger returned to St Thomas, his brother presented him with a farmsite, which' he called Multnomah, - after the West ern Indian tribe. - j ' During his visit nere Judge Erman tinger visited Oregon City and was a guest at the home of Mr a Eva Emery Dye and of Mrs. Patt, j a pioneer resi dent of that city. He also visited Van couver, Wash., and. found there one of the old buildings, now f remodeled into an officers club, which was probably the residence of Dr. McLoughlin in the Most Wonderful Labo ratory and Oiit-ofzDoor Paradise 1 "Yellowstone National Park is ideal, for camping out.
