Therefore, it is practically essential tliat in the meantimo the land be tween tltc trees be used. Early bear ing fruits, such ns pears, prunes, und cherries are fairly satisfactory for tins, if placed sufficiently for from the walnuts, The trouble in using treo tillers Is that when the walnuts r quire (he space, the temptation to leave them in for two or three extra crops ra too great, with the result that the walnuts are injured. Growing cultivated crops between the trees is much more satisfactory. They leave the soil in better condi tion, and can be derrensrd each year according to the growth of the wal nut trees. Thus, they do not conflict with the walnut's demands on the soil. livestock inspector for the Ladd & Tilton bank, Portland. He has or ganized control against rodents and grasshoppers and finds much interest in improving alfalfa stands and in farm dairy herds and sheep flocks. Henewal work on the once famous orchards of tlifl John Pay valley is another project scheduled for early consideration. Another Kichnrds, Clyde II., wh is a graduate of the L'niversity of Idaho, is the new ngnt for Coos county. He has been a sticceKsful county agent in Idaho for three years and has bad extensive training in dairying and ex perience in dairy farms.

All Oregon counties with agricul tural agents last year have continued for this year and three additional . counties have joined the group Jmtie, Coos and (irant. The first two are renewing the plan nftpr 12 years' trial except for the lost two years, while Grant is trying it out for . the first time. j The counties carrying the agent paltry cooperate with th state col lege extension service and the feder al department of agriculture.

First plnce in production of year lings was won by G. F. Hiersdorf of Cornelius whose yearling heifer pro duced 00 pounds of fat in December.

Farm Reminders European canker Is wide spread in western Oregon occasionally causing a severe damage to certain pear va rieties. Specimens of pear cankers may be referred to the experiment station at Corvallis for free diagnosis. These cankers increase from year to year. Control consists in the thor ough cutting out and disinfection of the existing cankers, followpd by a summer bordeaux spray as employed for nntlu-acnoae. .

Thoroughness in spray ing is essential to success says the (. A. C. experiment station. Any bit of unprotected surface will be an open port of entry for diseases. Orchards of Oregon atone fruits that are subject to brown rot should be protected against enrly infections originating from the spore cups de veloped by the old mummies in the ground, says the experiment station. Continuously harrowing the orchard soil throughout the blosxom period when these, cups are developing will destroy them and thus prevent spore discharges. This stirring of the soil should be repeated every two or three duya. . All shriveled fruit and dead twigs and spurs left in the top of Oregon prune, apricot and cherry trees should be removed at pruning time, says the experiment station, as they may be a serious source of blossom blight infection if left on the trees.

The accompanying design unites these elements in a plensing design that has proved popu lar with many builders during the 1024 season. Treatment of the en try way and the two coat closets are a conven ience which will be appreciated by the houKekeeper. The railing along the top of the porch adds an orna mental touch to the front facade and the two dormer windows fit pleas ingly into the design. ' Wall plant ings will add materially to the ex terior appearance. The ground floor is nicely portened and the position of the fireplace will compensate In extra heat for the space occupied. The living room is of ample eize and is well lighted. Arrangement of the dining room and kitchen Is idenl. The downstairs chamber is large enough for ordinary use and its win dows afford cross ventilation. The central hall ties in all the rooms on the ground floor and a stairway leads to the upper story. The upstairs bedrooms are of excellent dimensions and well supplied with light, ventila tion and closet space. The Bleeping porch shown in the plan is located directly above the bath room and if the owner desires this space may be easily altered for use as an upstairs bath room. Cost of this house should be well within the means of the average fam ily.

Th Pacific Homestead 190 South Commercial Salem, Oregon An advertising campaign has been launched In the newspapers of Ore gon and "Washington by the brick 1 manufacturers of the two states with the Idea of increasing the use ' of brick, hullow tile nnd other clny products In construction work. j It is proposed to continue the ' campaign for a year, it was an nounced by II. It. Kreitzcr of Tort land, president of the 1'iuific North- ; west Urick Manufacturers' nssocia- ; lion. Uy th's menus the citizens of the states will be informed of the permanence, safety, economy and beauty of clay products, he said. j "Wo ieel that we arp doing the public, ns well as ourselves, a serv ice In this educational campaign, ns it is greatly in the pubi c interest to have buildings constructed of nnv j terlala which will stand the ravages of time and which will protect the lives of occupants," said Mr. Kreit- ser. "More general use of brick, hol ' low tile and roofing tile will greatly 1 reduce fire losses and give a better j and more stable appearance to our cities. "Kven in cases where tin initial cost of using brick Is slightly grcat ! er, the saving in maintenance, insur- ance and other Item makes the brick ! structure- much more economical thnn i buildings of less permanent material, nml a hetter Investment both from the indivdual and the community standpoint.

Alfonso lannellj, well known sculptor, painter, architect and professor of design at tho Chicago Art institute, auks this question and in doing so reminds iik of the care with which one's wife selects her gowns. They must be just so in texture nrd tone, nnd Professor ' TannelH reminds us hat if we would have a truly artis tic house, every way in keeping with the period of architecture nfter which designed, we must dress -our bouse vith exactly the same care. Professor Tanuelli has . just com pleted months of research on the subject of stucco. "In every great period," he says, "I have found there was a close relation between the de sign of the building nnd the texture of the walls, both inside and out. It was very easy to recognize harmony between the architectural design and wall tone and texture. And by study ing the dress of the people of vari ous periods, it was further possible to associate this' harmony of texture and tone with the habits v' people in difforent periods as regards cloth ing their persons. "In ruins of ancient Creek build ings, the characteristic stucco tex ture is exceedingly rough, with coarse up and down marks. On the old Spanish houses of the pure type of Spanish architecture, the surface is not so rough but has wide brush marks relieved by smooth spots." In Lhe same way, Professor Innnelli de scribed the distinctive texture of the Italian, the edrly English, the med iaeval French, the California mission and tlie coloninl types of architecture. He also stated thnt use of certain colors of stucco predominated in each period, variations being determined by climatic conditions, by the availability of different coloring pigments and by nrealizntion thnt some tones har monize best with certain textures. Again, associating the costumes and homes of people of different per iods ho said, "The rough-textured surfaces predominated in the middle ages when velvet nnd linen . were worn, since the coarser textured wall linrmonlzed with them. Later on. ns fn the times of Louis the XIV, XP. and XVI. whn silks, brocades nnd i satins predominated, walls were high- j ly finished and ornate.
