Students Here Make Machine For Topping Onions For Growers The construction of a large onion topping machine for ue in th e Lake La hi, h d i t ri e t , which ie now being undertaken by the Kinith-Iliighcs Htudenta at Salem high srhonl, has attracted public attention to that department. The machine is the seventh of it kind that been built at the high school during ihe last four yearn. It measure 20 feet in length. It will he wild to the farmers at a reasonable price, and the money turned over to the echool fund. K. K. Itergmaii. who has charge of the department, estimate! that during the seven years he ha boon an instructor at the local school, $4000 in cash hna been turned over to school authorities ait proceed derived from ttie t;ale of pniducts of his department. The onion topping machine I made for the purpose of rutting tiie tons of onions, as would' be implied from the name. ImmeiiKei quantities of onions nre grown tn ; the Lake Lahwh district, and when harvested are taken with the whole tnpn left intact. Kx- perimenus have shown that the onions will keep in the best con dition while the torn are not cut. The onions are stored in large warehouses until sold. At th time of s'lle the tops are cut. Often n much as an entire carload is dis posed of at fchort notice, and machinery for doing the work rapidly is of prime necessity.

At the requtst of a number of farmers, and partly with the use of their Ideas, the Smith-Hughes department of the local high Hchool four years ago built an onion topping machine that prov ed to be far more satisfactory than the eastern manufactured machines. The machine built at that time l still in use, as are the other five that have been con structed since that time. Bach one built has been a Utile more complete, and does a little better work, than the one before. The one now under construction, the seventh, will be the largest ever introduced in the Lake Labish district. There are at present 23 boys enrolled in the Smith-Hughes course at Ihe high school. Last, semester there were 32, a num- ber dropping out at mid year be-l cause of sufficient credits for graduation, and for other reas-, oiiH. Under the Smith-Hughes ar rangement the federal govern ment pays half the salary of the instructor. Mr. Bergman l pal $1000 by the local school district and $1000 by the federal govern ment. Craduates in Ihe course are en titled to enter any engineering college In the United States in full standing, or, with an added year of academic work they are qualified to enter any standard state university TRADING SLOW Trailing In all dried fruit llne, so far as primary handlers are eoncorne'i.

This is a filiation which California I-'rurt News began predicting quite a few years ago, but It wui looked open as most Impractical nt the litre. Titer Isn't nnv question, we think, but that material propor tions of our dried fruit business ir a number of the items will eventu ally be done In carton form in vary ing sizes.

Mote, entomologist for Ihe ex ptrin ent station. Serious Injury was done to the cheriit-s in the Sa lem flection from J 1 1 1 to l'Jll. The Insect was not noticeable for four or five eais than and con trol measures w ere practically flopped by a II growers. The past (wo yea rt have seen a great in crease In ihU pct and t bis year pr m.ses to be one of the most serious. This Insert Is a small, elongate, active, creamy whitish, beetle sometimci with a black stripe down the back. They are found feeding on the unfolded leaves of .ill vui-ieties of our tree and bram ble fi tilts. On cherries the bevtles injure the sterna and fru.ts. The cherries either dioj to the ground or are starred so bad that they nre pia red in second and third class fr-ilt. Arsenical sprays will coji:o this pent but from indications based on the tests conducted last year the rtandurd sprav i'l pc-unds of lead arsenate to 100 gn'.lon of water) is not strung enough to adequate ly handtt- the eituation. In last year's tst, 8 pounds of le.'d ar senate to 100 gallons of water were ured, Tiiis strenrth apparently controlled the beetle. Koli-tge burn Is liable to result from the use of lead arsenate on all stone fruits. To counteract this 1 pound of hydrated lime is added to the pray solution for each pound of lead aihenate. This pre vents any serious foliage burn. The spraying begins as soon a. the little beetles appear. This if usually jn.st nhout bbsoniing time, and the spiny Is applied be fore the buds open. A cond ap plication is made about two weeks later between the time of full bloom ar.d when the petals have dropped. Spraying usually starts in the latter part of March or the first part of April. Synett i injury to cherries threat ens to b.! larger this year than In Ihe past. ruder the direction oi lt n C. Mote, entomologist for the expeiinient Ht;ai.n, several tot .spay will be put on thi season in the Salem district. The form er recommendation of 2 pounds of lead arsenate to 100 gallons of wat er has proved inadequate to con trol the beetle. Sprays to bo tested this year arc lead iirsenate 4 pounds, hydrated lime 4 pounds and water 50 gal Ions; calcium er.sonate 4 pounds and water 50 gallons. These sprays will be tested again.st each other for control of the beetle and chcekMt against trees which are untreated for comparative percent ages of injury.
