Anglers, hunters and recreation
seekers who sense the call of the
north will find a veritable mine of
condensed information in an outing
map of the state of Oregon prepared
by the outing and map service de
partments of the Automobile club of
Southern California for its members
and visiting motorists.
The map is 24 by 30 inches, and
in addition to the highways, rivers
and lakes, it shows in red ink camp
sites, where supplies are obtainable,
where gasoline and oil can be had,
post-offices, meals and lodgings,
where guides, packers and animals
nrq obtainable, where boats are for
rent, ranches where butter and eggs,
etc., may be purchased, points of
special interest, scenic areas, water
falls, main truils and game refuges.
On the reverse side of the map is
printed all sorts of detailed infor
mation including Roosevelt highway,
McKenzie river, Middle Fork of the
Willamette country, Columbia River
highway, and Mt. Hood Loop, Pacific
highway, Klamath Lake, Crater Lake,
Diamond Lake and Vpper Rogue
river, and a list of golf clubs in the
state. There is also n general mile
age table giving distances between
the more important cities and towns
of the state via the shortest feasible
routes.
Amateur campers will find numer
ous hints that may help In making
their outings comfortable and plena
urablc and simple rules for sports

Prominent Dealers
Are Signed up by
Willys Overland
Unusual interest in the Willys
Overland motor car franchise is be
ing manifested by prominent automo
bile dealers throughout the country
as the result of the announcement of
the. new models earlier in the year.
As n result a number of important
ileal or connections havo been com
pleted in larger retail centers.
Earlier in the year new Inrge deal
ers were closed at Philadelphia,
Cleveland. Washington, and a promi
nent distributor for the Argentine Re
public with headquarters at Buenos
Aires. More recently new dealers .
weru obtained at Pittsburg, Milwau
kee, Los Angeles, Denver and Mil
waukee, in each instnuco the new ad
ditions to the Willys-Overland ranks
being business men prominent for
years in the nutomobile circles in
their respective communities.
Still another prominent addition to
the list of new dealers in the export
field is the signing of Mark L. Moody,
Inc., Shanghai, China, with a distri
bution territory comprising the prov
inces of Kiangsn. Chekiang, Anwei,
Ilonnn, Ilupeh, Kiangsi, Hunan and
Szechwan. A shipment of new models
has already gone forward to the Ce
lestian Republic from the factory at
Toledo, including new Overland and
Willys-Knight sixes.
New Jewett Coach
Announced; Price
Listed as Feature
The Paige-Detroit Motor Cor com
pany in an effort to present the new
est and smartest coach in history an
nounces tnrougu ii. j. "ni'sic.
ager of H. J. Bringle Motor company,
local distributors, a new five-passenger
Jewett six model nt only $55.00
more than open car prices.
In designing this coach, the Paige
company gave every consideration to
three outstanding essentials demanded
by the motorist:
First: Uoomy comfort.
Second: Sinartness.
Third: Serviceability.
Pointing out how completely suc
cessful the company was in develop
ing these three requirements, Mr.
Bringle said:
"Uoomy comfort could only bo ob
tained by building the new cooch the
same size as sedan models. It must
have ample room for five and to fill
every need of the average family
must also have space in the tonueau
for packages.
"Wide doors permit passengers in
the rear seat getting in and out
without requiring tho riders in the
front Beat to leave their seats. The
width of the doors is 30 inches.
t.rtM.. l nn1 tilir winfinwH in the
side and rear give to the exterior the
beauty that makes this new model the
smartest coach on the market. The
upper corners of the back have a ball
end. This rounded smoothness fits
in with the radiator and hood design.
A final touch of artistry is given to
the design by n belt molding, hereto
fore only employed in the design of
the nation's most beautiful custom
built motor cars.
"Of course, serviceability of the
new Jewett six model is not confined
to tho upholstery. The new Jewett
coach is the highest example of a
staunchly constructed body on a mcd-ium-prircd
chassis."
CHICAGO, April 25. Remove tho
mental strain of the driver nnd you'll
remove an important cause for traf
fic accidents, says Sydney J. Williams,
chief of the public safety division of
the National Safety Council here.
' Memal strains, says Williams, in
cludes the following conditions of
mind :
The worried mind, the unguarded
mind, the puzzled mind, the stubborn
mind, the misguided mind nnd the
diseased inind. All these conditions
occur at limes, permanently or tem
porarily, among auto drivers. Where
one is permanent, the driver should
be kept from tho streets.
In addition there is the strain aris
ing from the environment or a tem
porary condition. Confusion in traf
fic, knowledge on the part of the driv
er of defective brakes or other tem
porary feeling of insecurity might
cause mental strain.
Don't wrap your clonk about tou
in a smug security and conclude that ;
our counties bordering the Willamette
have nothing to fear as there is ;
nothing at 6take in the fight against
blister rust." says a foreat specialist,
W. V. Fuller, of Dallas who has
cruised much timber land In the re
gion of Black Rock in Polk county '
and hat estimated that there are be- ;
tweeu 10 and 12 million feet of choice
western white pine in that region, j
Worth saving? Oh. yes. i
"But think of tomorrow. Western '
white pine If given a fair chance will
multiply itself M-vi-ral times after this
region is logged over and from being
relatively unimportant will become ;
one of the leading foreat trees of
this section. But not if Mister rust 1
invades it and nothing is done to con- j
trol the situation." j
A much smaller ares of white pine 1
ia located in eastern Tillamook coun
ty west of Forest Grove. These two
regions are significant not only from
the standpoint of tho whito pine this
land fs capahle of producing in the
future, but because they are in the
general southward course of blister
rust. Once the disease gets into these
regions it will have an opportunity
to spread 100 miles in every direc
tion as it spreads great distances
from the pines.
So important nre these two re
gions as potential relay stations for
blister rust that on the recommenda
tion of F. A. Elliott, state forester,
the blister rust office of the I'nited
Stntes department of agriculaure ex
pects to have two men in these rn
gionB most of the coming summer
studying the situation with a view to
making recommendations for future
action. A little work has been done
in the Tillamook county orea and
this has revealed thnt the stink cur
rant is very prevalent In the region,
i Stink current stnnds second only lo
the cultivated black currant as a ser
ious menace in the spread of blister
rust.

The poor pototo crops in Oregon
nre due to four principal causes, says
the experiment stntion specialists.
There ore too many varieties, too
ninny unproductive hills, poor stands,
and in many cases not enough plont
food and moisture.

DKTROIT, April 25. Dozens of
long newly paved roads will greet the
tourist along tho Lincoln Highway on
his way from coast to coast this sum
mer. They are the physical representa
tion of an $8,000,000 development . of
this transcontinental highway last
year.
Motor traffic this year ocross
states nnd over longer distances is
expected to be much greater than
ever. California alono expects atl
records to be broken in the number
of tourists coming to that state. The
national porks tiro planning to greet
additional thousands from the cast.
Tho Lincoln Highway will he one
of tho most popular roods for such
touring say officials of this high
way, because It is almost entirely
completed. By the spring of 1020,
tho officials expect to see nearly
2S00 miles finished. That's 00 per
cent of the distance.
On its completion the Lincoln
Highway will have .rontutned a total
investment of $75,000,000.
A good grazing practice on Oregon
pasture lands is to keep the stock off
: the grans in the spring until it has a
j start, Rotating grazing on different
! pastures each year to allow for this
I growth is most desirable, says the
i Oregon station. Overstocking on graz
1 ing lands Is "killing the goose that
i lays the golden egg." Profit In beef
'or mutton production depends upon
j ample grass. An important step in
! good grazing practices is to allow
i some grass to go to seed every third
or fourth year.

MANHATTAN. Kas., April 2.r.
Tho plan of holding county seed ex
changes for tho sale and pure-huso of
approved seed has spread rapidly from
Kansas, whero it. began last year, to
several other states.
The report of this plan's rapid suc
cess and progress is made by II. It.
Sumner, nsslstont professor in the
extension division of the Kansas
State Agricultural college here, un
der whose supervision the Beed ex
changes were stnrted.
From a beginning of six exchanges
Inst year, Sumner reports, tho seed
exchange idea grew to 10 this spring
in Kansas alone, In which more than
20,000 farmora participated.
"A seed exchange," explains Sum
ner, "is a co-operative meeting whero
the man, who has seed for sale dis
plays it for the benefit of the man
who has. to buy seed. Every sample
ia tested by the college for purity
and germination.
"The idea for seed exchanges grew
out of the extension project of get
ting pure seed of nn adapted variety
readily avoilahle throughout tho state.
By use of tho seed exchange, county
agents can 'sell the farmer on an
adapted variety of seed, such as Pride
of Sulino corn, and in response to
his query as to whero tho corn con
bo bought refer him to n half dozen
growers in his own county.
"Tho purity ami germination tests
bring homo to the farmer tho import
ance of sura requirements. When
tho seller finds
unfavorably with that of a rival,
provement in quality is hound to m
suit."
Oregon as a result of recent cold
rains which favor rapid sprend of the
scab fungi," Kays II. , Barss, plont
pathologist of the stoto experiment
station. "Special precaution must bo
taken in putting on the calyx spray in
commercial orchards to insure abso
lutely complete covering of the entire
foliage as well as tho young fruit,
with tho spray as soon as the petals
have dropped.'
Liquid lime-sulfur ntv the rate of
2 gallons to 100 gallons of water
should be used except on sensitive
skinned pears which should be spray
ed with some non-caustic sulfur spray
or dusted with dusting sulfur when
the air is still.
The Spray Program for Oregon
Orchards gives the complete spray
Rfhcdule. It ia sent free by the Ore
gon Agricultural college at Corvallis,
on request of growers.
The new method of potato seed
; treatment with hot formaldehyde is
i proving effective in Oregon. Because
. of Its rapidity and cheapness, thi
treatment is fast gaining favor. Many
potato growers m the Willamette
m-iij tin n vuiiiif ui ill preference to
the more common methods used in
past years.
The hot formaldehyde treatment is
I fully 8B effective as the reliable mer
I euric chloride (corrosive sublimate)
in the control of rhizactonia. Com
; pnrattv tests have been conducted
by the Oregon experiment station un
der the supervision of B. McKay,
plant pathologist. Theotment of po
tatoes with the different methods
showed that mercuric chloride and hot
formaldehyde are about equally ef
fective. Old formaldehyde and us
pulnn were quite Ineffective.
For the most effective results with
tho hot formalrehydo treatment, as
recommended by the experiment sta
tion. 2 pints of formaldehyde are used
to 30 gallons of water. The potatoes
ore dipped for two minutes t 118 de
grees to J22 degrees F. Tempera
tures much warmer than 122 degrees
will injure the germination qualities
of tho potatoes. The mercuric chlor
ide treatment is used at the standard
strength of 4 ounces to 30 gallons
of water for 2 hours.
Tho farmer's choice of the two
treatments depends on the one which
fits his convenience the better. The
mercuric chloride treotment appears
to bo best adapted to small acreage,
whereas tho hot formaldehyde treat
ment is cheaper ond time saving for
lorge acreage. The average'eost per
bushel for hot formaldehyde treat
ment is from 2 to fi cents. This
treatment has proved to be effective,
practical, ensy and Inexpensive, snd
makes possible the treating of large
quantities of seed In a short time, as
developed by the state agricultural
college at Ames, Iowa.
Planes to Carry
Spray Over Monroe
Best results with corn are obtain
ed on soils thnt have been in some
legumo Vrop like clover or alfalfa
or on those that hnve been well ma
nured. Corn, to mnlto a good growth,
requires plenly bf, available plant food
especially nitrogen and phosphorous.
In localities where tho moisture sup
ply holds out throughout the growing
season good results ore often ob
tained from tho use of nitrogen and
phosphorous carrying fertilizers.
Them fertilizers are useless on lands
plowed late or those that dry out
badly.
In order that tho Oregon farmer
may secure better results In yield
and quality, flnd nehieve the distinc
tion of certification of potatoes, the
extension service recommends that
seed which Is smooth, medium size,
and free from disease be used. To
prevent diseases, potatoes may be
treated in n corrosive sublimate so
lution or in hot formoldehyde. Direc
tions may be had by writing to the
station at Corvallis.
CORVALLIS, Ore., April 25.
"Dusting" experiments with nlrplnnea
on fruit orchards near Monroe will
bo carried on in Mny by D. C. Cham
