Established Standards for Spanish type onions have been adopted by the state department of agriculture as result of a recent hearing in On tario where growers requested that separate grades be estab lished for this type onion. These standards are in addition to the onion standards already in effect and apply only to the Spanish type. Growers of Spanish type onions may grade either under the new standards for this type or under 1 the US standards for northern grown onions or the regular Ore gon standards for onions. ' Minimum size of onions under the Oregon standard grade set up for Spanish type is VA inches in diameter. Not more than five -per cent, by weight, of the onions in any container may be below the grade requirement and not more than two per cent of this toler ance will be allowed for onions affected by decay. Copies of the standards may be obtained by addressing the department's plant division at Salem.

Time to Treat Root Borers DALLAS The last of August and the first of September Is the most effective time to treat peach and prttae trees for the control of root borers. Material commonly used fortu nately is available this year at only slightly increased prices over other years. This materia? chem ically known as. pa radi chloro- benzene is best used when the soil temperature is 60 degrees fahren heit or above, according to W. C Leth, county agent. , An ounce is used -for ordinary trees six years 'of age or older. Three-fourths of - an ounce for trees four to five years old and for tree one to - three years old one-half ounce is recommended. This material can be injurious to young trees less than four years old if not properly used. The mounds of earth piled on top of the poison about the trees should be torn down on the young trees after the treatment has been, made for four to six weeks. . . It is usually best to treat a whole orchard " or group of or chards in the same neighborhood at the same time. When this is done and the treatment given for two consecutive years it might be unnecessary to treat again for a considerable period of time. When only part of an orchard is treated the. adults of this insect are free to migrate into the treated sec CLIMB Ok I'LL 5IVE VA A HPT.
