Over three and one-half tons of seed com has already been sold by 4-H corn club members of Wash ington County, according to Joseph Belanger, assistant county agent, at prices ranging from $75 a ton upward.

Department of Agriculture at Washington and for merly associate agronomist at (*re- gon State College, who has judged three of the four bank corn shows and who is recognized as an out standing authority in com, said last fall that the 4-H com clubs of Washington county have made more improvement in Minnesota 13 com than has been made in any other section of Oregon.

Soaring to New Heights Warning for Oregon tomato glowers, especially those who grow early fruit in greenhouses, to be on the |< okout for a new and ex tremely serious virus disease has just been issued by the Oregon State college experiment station. The dreaded English spotted wi/t has just been identified on plants brought to the station from a greenhouse along the Oregon coast. Dr. F. P. McWhorter, federal plant pathologist who made the i- dentification, is hoping that the disease is confined to that one particular spot as this disease is sometimes seed borne and the grow er who brought the plants in said he had obtained the seed from England where this disease is pre valent. This disease is entirely distinct from the various virus diseases common to the northwest at pres ent, and much more serious, says Dr. MaWhorter. Leaves of affecte- plants become reddened, the plant itself is badly stunted, and fruit is borne sparsely if at all and is under-sized. In England and Aus tralia the disease is carried from plant to plant, mostly by thrips. Any groweis who suspect that they might have the disease in their plantings are requested to send or take a sample to the state college for identification. SEN. GOSS OUTLINES CAMPAIGN POLICIES Senator John D. Goss, candidate for the democratic nomination as U. S. congressman from the first district, has definitely outlined the policies on which he bases his cam paign. First citing his avowed 100-per cent Rooseveltism, Senator Goss de clared he would work for econo mies and tax relief, the establish ing and financing of settlers in the first district, the fededal dis tribution of Bonneville power, con tributions by the United States to counties in proportion to their fed erally-owned lands, flood relief in valley territory, federal aid for mining and prospecting, early con struction of forest roads, and th< development of Oregon harbors witl subsequent federal reimbursemen for port districts. Senator Goss' experience as a legislator, attorney, mining opera tor, manufacturer, rancher and bus iness man is believed by his sup porters to give him^a marked edge in the campaign. MARTIN FOR GOV.
