CHERRY MAGGOT SPRAY SHOULD BE APPLIED POISON BAIT RECtmMKXDED AGAINST ADULT FIA" Sunshine Attracts Young Who Can Be Seen "Sporting" on Green Leaves Sprays for the cherry maggot in Oregon can soon be applied, says Don C. Mote.- entomologist for the experiment station. The poison bait spray as reccomended is directed against the adult flies as soon as they emerge. The fly is about two-thirds the size of the house fly, blackish, with, head and legs yellow. The most distinguishing character is the- conspicuous dark cross bands ori"pictures" on the wings. The flies are sun-lovers- and as they emerge from tha soil can readily be r.ten"sportinK about jD the sunshine on the upper surface of tlie cuter leaves. Growers should watch for the first sppoaranee of the flies and should then, apply ihtlr first spray. 1 The formula for the preparation of the poison bait is: r j Lead Arsenate pound Molasses or syrup (nevxer ho ney) 2 quarts j Water 10 gallons. This amount is sufficient for spraying approximately 30 trees. The first spray is given as soon as the adult flies appear.. or. .about June 5 to 20 the second. , about ten days following the first; and a third spray, about one week after the second. Two applica tions would probably be sufficient in well-timed and no showers of rain occured. From : one pint to one quart of the solution to each tree is sufficient and is applied if the upper surface of the outer leaves. . ' Viennese Actors Curb Hopes of Amateurs VIENNA. Amateur acting has become so popular in Vienna, and some of the amateur actors do so well, that the professional stage, considering itself threatened, has found an effective remedy. A committee of professionals watches every announcement from any one of the 100 amateur action clubs In .Vienna that charge ad missions. Any play the rights of which are protected may not ' be given by amateurs, and if an at tempt is made to evade this regul ation,, the- police are notified by the professional actors and act accordingly, i r Hence the amateurs are restrict ed, if they charge admissions, to plays by Goethe Schiller, Leasing and other old timeplaywrights. 3 Stop heat loss at the roof -line!

The factory buildings usually build down stream, and seek the low. level lands, and where there are the factories, the dwellings of the workers will be located nearby. -It is a. Known fact, it is declared the professional and mercantile classes build their homes in the hill country and go up stream. Already the influence of the factories is felt in Salem, an ex ample being presented by the Miles Linen mill. Property values there have gone up. and construc tion of homes has increased mat erially in number in the nearby circles. WEEK GOOD FOR SALES ; 3 CHLDS N i BECHTEL REPORT SEVERAL GOOD DEALS Childs &.
