THE HOUR IS PASSING
Until the buds appear, it is still time
to spray with lime-sulphur solution for
San Jose scale, says the Portland
Journal. In the case cf peaches,
prunes and cherries, the hour will soon
have passed, but in the more import
ant apple industry as late as April 10
is usually opportune.
The reward for the work is redeem
ed orchards, obliterated scale, gradual
emancipation from moss and scurvy,
cure for apple scab, and trees that
present the pleasant appearance of
thrift, cleanliness and vigor. This is
the immediate reward. Later com
pensatlon comes In the more remuner
ative condition of fruit that the mar
ket wants and is willing to pay hand
somely for. To let the orchards stand
unsprayed is at par with half-fed and
uncurried horses, farm machinery ly
ing exposed to winter rains, poorly cul
tivated fields, indifference to debt and
other marks of unthrift. Where pro
gressive method is in vogue on the
farm, the standard of living is highest
and the per capita of wealth greatest.
Competence and thrift seldom come
to the sloven and laggard, but are re
served for the man whose eyes and
ears are open and his hands busy to
utilize the newest and best way of do
ing things.
Oregon soil and climate are ready
to do their Dart in the production of
fruit, if only the husbandman will give
them the opportunity. The world
wants Oregon apples and is willing to
pay the price. Three dollars a box for
Hood River apples and three dollars a
box for Rogue River apples last season
mean splendid prices for Willamette
valley appples if Willamette valley
growers will bniy aid them to mature
unblemished by worms and unblighted
by scale.
Ahead is a time when the foothill
farm will be largely saiaoie or unsaiaoie The happiest mother in the litt'.e
and when its value will be enhanced or town of Ava, Mo., is Mrs. S. Ruppee.J

diminished according as the orchard
presents thrift or unthrift, for it will be
a time when Oregon apples will be a
desideratum to the incoming seekers
after homes. To fail now to spray will
be to drop behind in the procession of
forces and factors making for a bigger
and better Oregon.
In the treatment of piles it becomes
necessary to have the remedy put up
in such a form that it can be applied
to the parts affected. Man Zan Pile re

but reach the spot,
bleeding, itching and protruding piles
