Onion Types .
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. ' . ,
Foods Condemned
Due to Weevils e
Sanitary inspections made, last
month by state department of
agriculture representatives re
sulted in the seizure and condem
nation of an unusually large
quantity of foodstuffs. Most of
the seizures were due to presence
of weevil in the products. About
125 pounds of dried fruits and 36
sacks of cereals were condemned;
also 20 pounds of peas that were
Infested with worms. Cracks and
chips caused condemnation of 52
pieces of utensils , and dishes in
places where food is prepared or
served.

Corn Rallies
From
CHICAGO, Aug. 20.-;p-Grain
prices sagged fractions to a cent a
bushel at times Thursday in a re
action frofh Wednesday's upturn
during progress of the allied raid
on" France but corn led a brisk
rally late in the s es s i o n that
wiped out or reduced early losses.
Good demand for cash corn
along with substantial shipping
sales of both corn and wheat and
some mill buying of the latter
helped to simulate the rally. Cov
ering of previous short sales add
ed to the, buying. ,
Wheat closed unchanged to V
lower, September $1.18-, De

were off about a cent .-"

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

Growers generally who have
good crop prospects and whoe
orchards are in good condition
should strongly consider .treating
or borers especially if the outlook!
for fruit prices continues good the
next 'few years. .
' Complete' information on - the
method of treatment can be ob
