Copies of 'tliis 6&-page bulletin
by Air. Young, which contains in
valuable frost Information of every'
kind to all the fruit growers of
California and the northwest, and
especially to the Rogue Hlver val
ley,' can be had for the asking by
calling at the county agent's office.
I This information appears in the.

is that part of the bulletin pertain-:
ing to the average costs for frost
protection and operating expense.
In general tho bulletin, says on
the cost of orchard heading:
"Since there Is n great variation
in the cost of orchard heating In
different parts of the country, and
even In different orchards in the
same district,- because of differing
costs of equipment, fuel, . labor,
etc., and to difference 'in the frost
hazard. It Is possible to give only
a few examples of actual cost ac-
ro-tcounts furnished by Individual
j fruit growers or corporation.-! Tho
icost of protecting citrlis orchards
during tho winter months, when
firing periods of from 8 to 10
hours arc hut unusual, Is naturally
greater than the cost of protecting"
deciduous: orchards during t:ic
spring months, when firing usually
lasts from J to 7 hours. Relatively
expensive large-capacity oil heat

the planes of the Roolng Air Trans
port, operators of the San Fran-clsco-Oakiand-Chicago
route, nnd
the .pacific Air Transport, which
flies the Seattle-Medford-ttOA An
geles route, - carried 1055 tons of

letters, thousands of express ship
ments and neaily 6,000 passengers,
many of them between tho Clreat
Lakes and San Francisco bay,; the
longest regularly operated air line
in the world. '
The Booing'' systom Is now mov
ing 30 per cent of tho total air
mail load of-the country and while.
piling up five million miles of mile-,
age, its planes made daily calls at
21 airports in nine states. 1
The flying was done over tho two
longest air linen In ' tho United
