t ) THE CORVALLIS GAZETTE. FRIDAY. JULY 20, 1900. THE HESSIAN FLY. Professor Cordley, entomolo-1 gist at the Oregon Experiment! Station, has determined tnat tne specimens of insects sent to the station by a Lewisville, VVasli., wheatraiser, are the true Hessian fly. ' 'This is the principal wheat pest of the world," says Prof. Cordley, ' 'one that is estimated to destroy annually not less than 40,000,000 bushels of wheat in the United States alone, but one which has hitherto attracted no attention in the Pacific North west. "It is supposed to be of Euro pean origin and to have been in troduced into the United States in straw which was brought by Hessian troops. It has since spread over practically all the wiuter wheat regions of the world, reaching California in 1884, and Oregon very near the close of the century. "It has obtained a firm foot hold in the nery midst of the ex tensive wheat-growings sections of Western Washington and Ore gon, and in view of the fact that our system of extensive farming with wheat is particularly favor able to the development of this pest, we may expect it to spread rapidly and in the near future to exact a heavy tribute from the wheat-growers of this region. "No. methods have been found whereby this insect can be held in check by application of insecti cides. Reliance must be placed wholly upon the practice of such agricultural methods as are least favorable to the development of the insect. Among these may be mentioned cutting the wheat high and burning the stubble immediately after harvest, the destruction of all volunteer wheat that starts during the summer months by harrowiug and plow ing, that there may be no plants in which the supplemental spring brood of flies can develop; early sowing of strips through the field to wheat which is later to be plowed under, this to be fol lowed by late sowing of the main crop; rotation of crops." Prof. Cordley does not view with alarm the spread of this in sect pest, but sees in it, rather, a blessing in disguise, for he wise ly says, in conclusion : "The last method mentioned will undoubtedly prove one of the most important. In fact, if the Hessian fly shall prove a means of breaking up our exten sive wheat fields and converting them into fields of clover, Tetch ad various other crops, it will add not only to the revenues of the state at large, but of the wheatgrower himself. ' ' Speaking of the O A C the La Grande Observer says: "This chool occupies a field of its own and the fact that its enrollment is constantly increasing is con clusive proof that the advantages here offered are becoming gen erally known. This is the only school in the state where a prac tical education can be obtained and where a student can secure industrial training. Aside from other liites of education he can become a competent mechanic, civil engineer, electrician, chem ist, dairyman, farmer and many other trades, as we have in the past made frequent mention. Union oounty has sent several students to this school, all of whom have only praise for the advantages there presented as well as the capable managers and instructors at its head. ' ' Taxes rolled in heavily at the sheriffs office' Wednesday, over $1,500 being paid to that officer. Tne delinquent list tms year will be the smallest in years. When the money is paid over to the county treasurer, warrants can be paid up to about Febru ary, 1900, leaving the county practically out of debt. These are arguments in favor of the improved financial condition of the country. The general moving about ot merchants into larger and im proved quarters; the addition to the number of our business houses, and the great revival in building, show the improved business conditions of the coun try and manifest an abiding con fidence in republican legislation to continue itso. When in congress in Stevenson voted for free 1878, silver and against the retirement of greenbacks, and yet it ts claimed he was nominated for vice-president as a concession to the gold democrats.

Yesterday, J A Klakenshid, who has a forty-acre wheat field in Polk count', about two miles from this city, brought in the Statesman office a groen worm about three fourths of an inch long. He says his wheat is literally covered with the green aphis. The first of the week this worm appeared and on Tuesday he counted ten on a patch of wheat four feet square. Yester day they appeared to be on every other head of wheat. They seem to be the thickest near the timber and are increasing very rapidly. It to lies about two hours to clean all the aphis from one head of wheat. One of the worms sent to Prof A D Cordley, Corvallis, Oregon, for ex amination. The Statesman awaits with interest his report upon it. Salem Statesman. Real Estate Transfers. J B Goodman to L H Hawley et al, 2 acres for M E church, 2 miles south of Dusty; con, $50.
