Steamboat men say that the waters of the Columbia have been quite muddy tho past week. This is something Kin uetul, and they would like to know tho reason of It.

The season of fbe year when fruit trees need attention more particularly than at any other time, is approaching; in fact is at hand. Tho fruit of negligence is apparent on all sides, causing loss of valuable orchards to many horticultur ists, and to remedy the evil is the first consideration. One of the most common petts is the San Jose scale. It has gained such a firm foothold that nothing but united, strenuous efforts will avail to obtain satisfactory results. The extermination ot the pest can only be attained by proper and thorough spraying. Use only the very best spraying mixture and be careful in application to the trees. The neglect of one limb ineaus a menace, the slighting of any part endangers your whole orchard. The trouble in the past has been that the work In many orchards has been slipshod, while neighbors have been painstaking. The result is very unsatisfactory, in fact almost barren of any reeulte. And the trees In the valley will never be lid of the pest until uni form, palustaklng is the rule. Another oyll to be contended with is the codliii moth. Now is tho season to destroy these worms that cause unsale able fruit. The pest winters under the bark of tho trees, and a few days spent in the orchards will do wonders toward destroying the moth. Tho worm is about ready to crawl out and look around for fruit blossoms, and his career can eufily be nipped in the bud, and if gone at Fystematieally will add dollars to the output ol the orchard.
