GOOD FRUIT NOT COSTLY.
Small Outlay Will Eradicate Cod:n
Moth and Other Pes!s.
Milwaukie J. 11. Keii, cf this
place, who has made a clce study of
sprays for codlin moth and fruit pests,
believes that wormy apple are not
necessary, and that it is possible lor
aU who raise fruit to keep it free from
eodlin moth or other petts. Contrary
to the supposition that the cost of
spraying is exceeeive, Mr. P.eid gives
some figures to show that spraying is
not expensive.
Mr. Eeid cites the apple orchard of
Mark Levy, at Milwaukie, who had a
total of 300 boxes of apples and pear.
Each time he sprayed it tock 18 hours
There were two men employed at a
cost cf $9, one team at o, and cost cf
material was $10, making tbe total
cost $26. This was lees than e ' cents
per box. A great many of Mr. Levy's
tree are young and not in full bearing,
and for that reason tht cost for spray
ing was larger than it would have been
had the trees been in full bearing.
"In a large orchard like that of Mil
lard O. LowDsdale, in Y'amhiil coun
ty," said Mr. Beid. "the cost would
not be more than 4 to 6 certs j-er box
lor spraying. When tbe spraying is
properly done the grower does not have
more than eight or ten per ce.it lots
from worms." '
Salem Has New Industry.
Sa'em Tbe only sienna paint fac
tory on the Pacifie coast and one of
the few in tbe United States, is now in
operation in Salem. A complete out-!
fit of grinding, lifting and mixing ma
chinery baa been inttalltd, but the
demand for tbe product already indi
cates that the plant will have to be
duplicated. Tbe factory is being oper
ated on material shipped from the si
enna deposits discoverd a year or twoH
ago south of Eugene, in Lane county.
At the deposits cover an area of 62
acre to a depth of 50 feet, there is
plenty of material to supply the factory
for a number of years.
leeta have proved that the Lane
county deposits are of at high grade at
tbe Italian tienna and it hat been
demonstrated that the Oregon material
can be placed upon the market in com
petition with the imported article.
Epidemic of Hog Cholera.
Seaside E. K. Willard, who runt a
dairy on the Wauhama, report! an epi
demic of heg cholera tbrooghont his
neighborhood. Willard had eif ht fine
porkers that he intended to slaughter
within a few davs, but the cholera beat

bor, who is also in the dairying buai
nees, hat lost all hit hogs, and Mr.
Dawson, who Uvea on the Clatsop
plains, hat lost hit entire herd from
the diseaae.
Record-breaking Prune Crop.
Oregon City William X. Davit,
who ownt a 20-acre prune orchard near
Cams, report that he will have a record-breaking
crop of exceptional qual
ity thit year. He eayt his tree are

trees are all of the Italian variety, be
having plowed up his acreage of pe
tite, supplanting them with tbe Ital
ians which he finds more profitable.

20-acre tract of mountain land, located
four miles south of town, will harvest
500 tacks of potatoes and 16,000 beada
of cabbage, weighing from two to five

and the cabbages fsuu, or a
total re-
tarn of $1,200 from 20 acres.

Salem Unknown marauders entered
the hop yard of Iling Quong, near this

ALL PANIC AT SEVASTOPOL.
Commander Cannot trust Men and
Officers Threaten Terrorists.
Sevastopol, fept. C. In answer to
the publication of a notice .'rom the
terrorists that a sentence ol death had
been impood on Colonel Dumbadie
romrr auder of a rifle regiment here
the officers of that cjrps in an open let
ter have announced that in case of an
attack on the colonel tbey will exact
vengeance on the leaders of the progres
sive partie.
Admiral Skrydloff, commander of
the Black sea fleet, and the military
commander here are very apprehensive
regarding the attitude of the sailors cf
the fleet and the garrison of the (ort
ress. The cruise ol the training sqnad
ron as well as the regular neet maneu
vers have been postponed, the ships
scarcely venturing beyond the range ol
the guns of the fortress.
The military patrols of the city have
been withdrawn inside the walls of
tbe fort, due, it is said, to the fear that
the soldiers w ill be corrupted by con
tact aith the masses.
The merchants of this city have prac
tically been thrown on their own re
sources in tbe matter of protection
from lawlessness. The governor, st a
recent meeting, advised them to organ
ice their own guard, as soldiers could
no longer be spared fir police duty and
tbe municipality is bankrupt.

General Menoral said today that

formed that the government had actu
ally, although informally, granted an
armistice, adding that a srwnd commit

reach him tiefore tomorrow. The fact
is, however, that (tuerrera refuse
point blank to accept an armistice ei
cept on condition that the last presi

be annulled. That the government
should consent to this is out cf tt e
question, and tonight prospects point,
to a continuance ol the war.
PLANS FOR PANAMA TRIP.
President and Party Wilt Go to Isth
mus in November,
Washington, Sept. S Arrangement
are in progress for the trip of President
Iloosevelt to tb Isthmus of Panama
this fall. The start will te made early
in Novemler. Three wesks will likely
le consumed. It is, of course, tbe pres
ident's desire to complete his inspec
tion of the canal work and reach here
before congress convenes December 3.
That the j iurney may be made safely
and expeditiously, tbe Navy depart
ment will provide three warships.
(Mailed plans have not b-n com
pleted, but il is lik ley that the presi
dent, Secretary Tall, and other guest
will occupy a tirst class battleship, the
members ol the Canal commission an
other, and newspaper representatives a
third, which is to be a cruiser.
This will enable the president and
party to make the trip in comlort, give
them healthy accommodations while on
the isthmus and iacidentally provide
against the possibility of delay through
accident to any of the ships.
