IDAHO EXPERIMENTING WITH
PURE KEROSENE OIL.
It Exterminates the Aphis, But Must
Be Used With Care to Prevent
Damage to the Young Shoots
Aphis Can Be Killed During Win.
ter Months When Trees Are Bare.
Owing to the incrcaso of fruit
pests In some parts of Idaho, tho ag
ricultural experiment station of that
state Is making extensive experi
ments In the manner of destroying
the different kinds oi insects and
pests that are being Imported into
that state.
In the northern counties of tho
state, the apple aphis has greatly in
creased during tho past two years,
and not very many fruit districts are
now free from It. Out of tho many
districts represented In the Idaho ex
hibit, at the Ogden Irrigation Con
gress, but one was free from the va
rious kinds of fruit pests, and that
was Mann's creek, which won the
cup, hidden away in tho high moun
tains, and separated from the other
Settled localities by a slage route of
almost a day's drive.
Wherever the railroads touch and
fruit Is shipped extensively, the pests
are present and young orchards are
being, closely guarded to prevent in
fectlon.
The Idaho experiment station be'
lleves that winter spraying of fruit
trees will kill the aphis, as the in'
sect is said to spend the winter on
the bark of the trees, where It can
bo reached by the fluid, very sue
cessfully, after tho leaves fall from
the trees.
According to Eastern orchnrolsts
the aphis has two distinct foods, one
grain and grass tho other tho tree.
It is claimed the aphis is actually
carried from the trees to the wheat
stalks and grass by ants, in the
month of June, and after being nur
turcd on uie suculent stalks , until
about the middle of September, the
aphis Is again transported from the
stalks of grass back to the trees by
the ant, where they remain during
the winter months, and here the eggs
are laid ready to be hatched in the
early spring.
The Idaho station will try winter
spraying, with a view to killing tho
unhatched eggs, wii.le on the bare
bark and in the crevices of the trees.
Experiments were tried with pure
kerosene oil, one-third kerosene and
two-thirds water ana one-fifth kero
sene and four-fifths water. With the
pure kerosene spraying fluid many
shoots of the trees were killed, but
no eggs hatcned. With the one-

Union Men Get a Good Soaking While
on Boycotting Duty.
A .thorough sousing was meted out
to a red-haired waiter and his col
league by Engineer Franz of tho On
dawa Inn shortly beforo noon today,
says the Spokane Press. Tho trou
ble all grew out of tho differences
between Captain McClelland, man
ager of the inn, and tho cooks and
waiters' union.
Some time ago the captain ills
charged all his union help and put
on non-union people. Tho Inn wus
put on the unfair list by tho union
and this morning the boycott was put
In force, two men being stationed at
the front door of tho Inn to urge upon
hungry humanity that It buy else'
where.
And then something happened
Swish! And then Eorae more of tho
same and the luckless sentinels woro
lifted from their feet by tho forco of

the stream liko a Russian soldier

The Wallowa Enterprise, speaking
of tho plans of the lewlston Water

tho Grand Hondo river to furnish

Snake river points, says;
B. H. Llbby of Lowlston, presi

Co., In which Charles Francis Adams
and other capitalists of HosUm aro
Interested, has gone East to complete
arrangements for tho Installation of

It Is tho plan of tho company to
furnish electricity for lighting nnd

If Lewlston prospers nnd becomes
