TKLLS OF MISSION.
LONDON. June 26. Kerensky's
mission in England and the purpose
of his visit to America is to Inform
the people of the two countries, es
pecially the influential Russians, of
the exact conditions in Russia with a
view to procuring allied aid for that
country. M. Nabokorf, charge d'af
faires of the Russian embassy in
London, ' told The Associated Press
today. '
M. Nabokoff was the first person
to greet Kerensky upon the latter's
arrival In England and has spent
more time than any one else in Lon
don with the former Russian prem
ier. In his conversation with the
Associated Press M. Nabokoff said:
"Kerensky told me that Russia Is
like a strong man recovering from
sickness. She is healthier than be
fore. All she needs is assistance
from the outside. She does not want
Interference in ner internal aw airs.
That problem she will solve In her
own way. It is economic and finan
cial aid she needs.
Fin J Work After Arriving
The people In charge of the fed
eral labor office are more and more
Impressed with the need f organiza
tion among the Xrutt growers of the
valley, both as to labor and prices.
During the past few days there have
been many cases of dissatisfied pick
ers drifting back to the office after
having been placed in the fields, hav
ing .discovered that their prospective
employers were not ready to use
them. It has been the policy of some
ot the larger growers to round up
their full quota -of pickers, as far
as possible, at the beginning of the
season; holding them in eamp until
the crop is fully developed. This
causes more or less loss of titme to
the pickers, and a considerable num
bers of them have returned to the
labor office to be re-assigned. Prob
ably from this time on there will be
be few cases of this kind.

BROOKS PLANS
ASHING TRIP
Salem Sergeant Soon to Take
First Leave Since Ar-
riying in France.
Sergeant Russell M. Brooks is al
ready planning a fishing trip to take
place after the war. lie is to have
leave soon, but expects to utilize a
part of it for a minor surgical oper
ation. In a recent letter he writes to his
mother, Mrs. Mildred Robertson
Brooks:,
"Business as usual Is the motto of
the French and the industrial life of
the nation must not be kept back by
any war. for that will be needed af
terwards. Over here they are plan
ning for after the war and making
big preparations tthough the issue of
Germany's defeat has not been fully
proved to. her. It Is a step In the
keeping up of the morale.
"Had a long talk with Lieutenant
Brumbaugh the other day before he
left. He. Is a fine fellow and I hate
to see him leave here. If we get
back the two ot us -will surely go on
our fishing trip together. He knows
no more than any one else about
where is going or what will be the
future of the Old Oregon boys.
"Just finished eating dinner,
baked brown beans and onions baked

bacon, oleomargarine," bread, coffee,
and pudding, all good. Walked home

walk down the streets and see groups
of French people talking with their
whole bodies, but the best is when
two of their women quarrel, then the
fun begins. First one grabs at the
other's hair, pulls it off. disclosing
curious methods of ' camouflaging;
then are are many words; then an
other blow, a hasty retreat stopped
by somebody calling, whereupon the
vanquished returns to talk, is driven
away again, returns, etc. This la

Notes of Interest from O. L C.
A series of ups-and-downs la ob
served In the progress of the potato
industry of the country, by Prof. G.
R. Hyslop, bead of farm crops of the
Oregon Experiment Station.
"Usually a large yield is associated
with low prices, followed by smaller
rlantlngs resulting in smaller crops
and higher prices, he says. ! This
encourages the growers to take an
other plunge tn potatoes, and the ex
cess plantings especially in good
years prod ure an enormous orersup
ply and accompanying low prices.
"The year 19 11 was a splendid po
tato year In Oregon, but sot in the
rtates east of the Rocky mountains.
Our large surplus from rather a large
acreage was disposed of at rather
high prises. In 1917 many people
stimulated by the high prices pro
cured for the. preceedlng year's crop
soent considerable sums of money to
bey high priced seed and grow pota
toes, although this station advised
beans and corn instead. This hap
pened all over the United States with
the result of an abnormally low price
and difficulty la marketing. !
This year according to precedent!
will be a year of small planting In
Oregon. Travels and observations in
many sections Indicate that tha plant
ing will be small. There is still time
to plant some of the seed potatoes
that are left and to make the plant
ing cheaply because seed can be eas
ily secured. The Oregon Agricultural
College recommends liberal plantings
for 1918. They may bo planted a p to
July 1st. and even later if tha Jano
rainfall is good. Potatoes on lower
Columbia overflow lands have been
successful even when slanted after
August 1.
No ether grain crop for late plant
ing in Oregon Is quite equal to buck
wheat, the Oregon Agricultural Col
lege Station has found by. repeated
trials on tho college farm. The fol
lowing recommendations for Its cul
ture' are offered by Prof. G. R. Hys
lop, head of farm crops:
"Vetch fields, harvested for silage
or destroyed by aphis naay be disked
up thoroughly, or in tome cases
plowed and worked to a seed bed for
the crop.
"Buckwheat sowed. at thirty-five to
forty pounds per acre as early as pos
sible in June will give a good return
of wheat substitutes or stock feed.
It is a good feed for poultry and oth
er kinds of livestock when In mixture
with, other grain. The grain is rich,
nutritious and Is a crop that is easily
handled. (
" ' Oregon has never been a large pro
ducer of buckwheat, but all indica
tions are that every pound of buck
wheat that may be produced will be
valuable and will helps to carry hu
man beings and livestock through the
coming winter." ;
The -eoUege has a circular on buck
wheat, which may b had on request.
Death camas is the least known of
the stock-polsonlng plants, and be
cause sheep are very susceptible to it
the lasses are sometimes "very heavy
In Oregon. And this is the time ot
year when it is most deadly, just pre
vious to and during the blossoming
stage. Losses sometimes go as high
aa SO per cent of the band.
"All parts of the plant are poison
ous, especially the flowers and seed."
says Prof. W. E. Lawrence, of O. A.
C '"Lambs are more susceptible
than sheep. Experiments seem to
show that for all parts of" the plant
except tho seed the toxic dose is not
far frem one-half pound to every
hundred pounds of lire weight of the
animal. Cattle' and hones are sus
ceptible because of their greato
weight a larger amount of the plant
is " required to produce poisoning.
Even persons, especially children, are
reported as having been poisoned by
eating the bulb of death camas, xuls
takingit for tho blue-flowored edible
kind.
"The plant Is found la Eastern and
Western Oregon, ranging from low to
high altitudes. It grows in moist but
not wet places, though theso places
may dry out during the summer after
the plants die. 2
"Although known to surprisingly
few stockmen, death camis is easily
recognized at flowering time by its
creamy-white cluster of small flow
ers. It has aa onion-like bulb, usu
ally covered with a black membrane,
by which it may be recognised after
drying sp, during which time it is
still poisonous.
To ' eradicate the plant It has to
be dug up. bulb and alL If the bulb
is left it will have enough nourish
ment to send out new leaves and
flowers the following year. The
plants may' be noted at blossoming
time and either dug them out or the
place marked for later dlfx'BC The
bulbs of an small plants near Jbe old
plant should be destroyed."

WEEKLY
APOLLO CLUB'S APPEARANCE IS
TRIUMPH FOR NEW ORGANIZATION -THOUGH
AUDIENCE IS CRITICAL
Tosslbly nothing more tersely com-!
prehensive could be said or the first
sppesrance of the Apollo club than
that the critical audience praised the
new organization. The well filled
house that greeted the singers at
the Grand Opera house last Bight
was the first evidence or anticipation.
And the long persistent rounds of ap
plause that greeted the different
numbers demonstrated that the semi
circle of artists on the platform
were reaching the hearts of . their
hearers.
The prorgam was mot happily se
lected, not onljr to brinx out all Ine
qualities and the scope of the chorus
but to awaken in the heexer the
whole range of humaa emotions.
There was the suggestion or blood
and iron the clash of steel upon

Miss Lulu Dahl Miner, the soloist
of the occasion, came perilously near
