TO that somewhat abundant and aggravating tribe known as "Knockers," attention is called to weather conditions, east of tho Rookies, as set forth in the day's press dispatches. Besides the woes, tho people of the Rogue river valley, and Southern Oregon think they suffer, the lot of the dweller in the east, looms large. It might not be so much amiss if n wise Fate decreed that the rank and file of the "Hammer Brigade" spend the August dog days, in the sweltering, torrid, soul and heart racking tempera lure of the countrv between the Rockies and the Atlantic. Fnih-rc to cure would indicate hopelessness of reform from knocking. Last night; lodford residents, comfortable beneath blankets, awoke upon a summer's day ideal and perfect. with just enough of heat to make it seem as summer. In the east, women and children died, the hospitals were filled before noon with the victims. In the middle west, four lost their reason, and became lhnd; another, harassed by the torrid blasts sought relief in "another bourne" by self snuffing of the candle of his life. The crops are gone in four states thov have no wav to fiijht the wrath of Old Sol. The temperatures of tho summer months in the Rogue river valley would be interesting and instructive reading most any place east of the Rockies just now.

Ono of thco forces Is bacteria. It Is estimated that la tho common soil there arc 130 mil lion bacteria to tho ounce. These bacteria mutt hnvo for their food, humus, then they will liberate food for the growth of plants. Tho supply of humus, tho supply ot nitrogen, tho physical condition of tho poll tho penetration, aeration, and porosity of tho subsoil, can be established by tho growth of sweet clover at i cheapness that Is start ling. Nor is it a hard plant to grow; it Is oneIf not the most har dy, ot tho leguminous plants. II seems to stabllsh Itself on old, worn out soils where other legumes will not grow at all and where field Held crops grow so poorly as not to pay. Owing to these characteristics, nud to the fact that Its bacteria iro capablo ot living anil proscr!ug on tho roots ot alfalfa. It Is perhaps tho best poMlble plan with wheh to pre cede nlfnUa, in sections where there Is difficulty In securing a successful growth of thnt plant. An excrlmcnt In Alabama, on old, worn-out coll, was mado with swet clover. It produced Gf72 pounds of hay to tho aero tho first year, and 70tS tho secoud year, after which tho stubble was planted to corn. Tho corn produced ..." bush els nn ncro as against 1G." bushels upon an adjoining plat where sweet clover had not been grown. At the Ohio experiment stntion swot clover land gave a yield ot 2C.9 bushels an aero as compared with 1S.0 bushels on similar land not in swret clover tho year before.

S. department of agri culture. The article follews: To the people of Mercer ceunty: I have been called on to help in L-cttinir all the fruit growers to rnnke one great united effort in stopping scale and blight on the trees. After u. two weeks trip around examining trees nnd shrubbery, I find them In bnd condition, hut not beyond repair as sonio discouraged peoplo hupjwse. As u mutter of course, scale nud blight arc organic diseases, caused from tin insufficiency of sap and must bo cured by medicine which en ters tho system of tho tree. Sruying is 7iccc!snry for tho ex termination of insects, but it must bo remembered that blight is not an in sect. It is a peculiar form of tuber culosis of tho roots or iu plainer terniH n sort of n starvation for wunt of sap. Well, you ask, what fliiill Je done? O. K. Gneider of New York linn been successful in gcttins together n fluid which when applied to the root, will drive every vestigo of blight and scale from tho system of (he trees by making the tree absorb more snp. Take your knife nnd cut into the bnrk at the bottom of tho tree nnd you will find apparently, plenty of sap, then rut the bark S or 10 feet high, nnd the condition is rccrcd. From this experiment you can find out yourself that the sap is failing to reach tho cxtremitios of the limbs, and whero the sap fails to reach you cnti expect nothing but death' or blight. It is far from my desire to advertise nny mnn or medicine, but In view of tho fact that Mr. Gneider has successfully demonstrated tho power of Ids liquid in returning nor mal conditions of sup, I feel justi fied iu recommending its immediate use. What wo want is something that will do tho work. Now people, let us nil put our best efforts for ward and we ran clean our trees up nicely iu four or five weeks. I will try and sco you, talk with you, and most likely cat with you. With kindest regards, I remain Your friend, W. II. M'CULLOIJCIII. past week left on Sunday by uuto for Portlnnd.
