Governor West made a statement that Is expected to be like the explosion of a bombshell %i the camp of law violators. “I Intend to »ee that road houses ■re quickly, effectively and consist ently cleaned out.” said Governor West, "not only iu Multnomah county, but In every part of the state where officials have failed to enforce the law."

The aphis has not visited this section of 1 the country since the season of 1910,1 when the clover crop was entirely ■ ruined. POTATO DISEASE APPEARING Care In Selecting Perfect Seed Method of Combating Pest. Corvallis.—Many potato fields are reported attacked by a disease known as blackleg or blackstem. F. D. Bail ey of the crop pest force of the Ore gon Agricultural college says of the pest: "A disease of the Irish potato ap pearing in Oregon at this season, con cerning which the college has received many Inquiries, is that known as blackstem or blackleg. It is caused by bacteria, and has been known in the east for several years. "Both stem and tubers are attacked, and while no severe epidemic of rot in the field or in storage has been traced to this disease, it is quite evi dent that the loss of scattering plants is sufficient to reduce the yields ma terially. "The organisms causing the disease are carried over winter in decaying, bruised or cracked tubers. When such potatoes are cut for seed with other clean ones it is evident that the bac teria will be well distributed. "If care is taken, however, to select perfect tubers only for »seed, the dis- ease will soon disappear." Quail for Klamath Held Up. Klamath Falls.—Sportsmen who have been awaiting the arrival of a consignment of quail ordered by the state fish and game commission to stock Klamath county are doomed to disappointment The shipment was ordered in Mis souri. but owing to an infection dis covered after the birds were crated the state game authorities of Missouri would not allow them to be shipped out of the state. « No Job too Large or Small for Our Job Department » Remember the Name--BOHNA WHEN YOU WANT LIGHT GROCERIES, BAKING GOODS, CONFECTIONERY, CI GARS, FRUITS, VEGETABLES, ETC.
