WILD TALES TOLD Tl Continued spread of wild propa ganda through Jackson county by members of the so-called "Good Government Congress" was revealed last week In- several sections of the valley, where it is understood an at tempt' Is being made by followers of L. A. Banks, convicted of second de gree murder, to arouse sentiment favoring the former local agitator. Chief among, and typical of, the stories being concocted, is one tend ed to give heart to witnesses alleged to have perjured themselves on the witness stand. Members of the "Good Covcrnment Gress" are being told by their lead ers that James "Jimmy" O'Brien, sergeant in the state police, who was on the front porch of Banks' house when Constable George Prescott was murdered by Banks, had confessed that he saw Prescott drop his revol ver as he fell and that he, (O'Brien) was off the front porch and on the front lawn when the shot was fired, and that upon this a new trial would be given. The story is typical of the sort concocted by Banks to mislead and fool his followers, and is typical of most of Banks' stories, according to officers. O'Brien was on the front porah of Banks' home when the death shot was fired by Banks, and O'Brien has not said at any time before or since the trial, that he was in the front yard, or that he saw Prescott with a gun in his hand. Told by a member of tho good government congress, who lives west of Central Point, and circulated throughout its membership, tho au thor of the story has steadfastly re fused to divulge the source of his information. It was branded, however, as utterly false, and Intended to stir up further animosity. Officers declare there Is no truth whatsoever in the story. Heads Farm Relief Under the .arm bill, Henry A. Wallace, secretary of agriculture, will exercise wide power in con trolling production, processing and distribution of farm products.

MADE ON CURD OF FRUIT PESTS At a meeting of Oregon Experi ment station and extension service workers held In Medford, Friday, May 26, the question of fruit sprays for the Rogue River valley for the com ing season was given consideration Such factors as insect pest control and spray residue removal were dis cussed and as a result the following recommendations were made for tho guidance of fruit growers. Codling Moth Control For codling moth control use three pounds of lead arsenate per hundred gallons. Oil Is not recommended for codling moth control on pears. On apples a light type oil at the rate of one gallon of the emulsion per hundred gallons, in combination with two pounds of lead arsenate and one-half pound of spreader, Is recommended for use against the firBt brood only. The oil-lead arsenate combination should not be used after July 7th. For second brood control use lead arsenate only, at the rate of three pounds to the hundred gallons. No other materials are recommend ed at the present time. Spider Mite Control Thus far the use of an oil spray has proved the most satisfactory method of controlling the spider mite in the Rogue River valley. A mediiun type oil at the rato of one and one fourth gallons of the emulsion poi hundred gallons may be used until July 7th, with reasonable assurance of removing the lead residue from the fruit at harvest time to within the tolerance of .014 grain per pound. If it should be necessary to use con trol measures after that date, con sult the local county agent. Or dinarily it la necessary to spray only Anjou, Bosc and Cornice for the con trol of this pest, CAUTION: Oils should not be used for a period of six weeks after the application of sulphur sprays foi scab control, because of possible In Jury. Trees suffer much less from spldei mite Injury where amp soil moisture Is present, therefore, It Is recommend ed that orchards be kept woll irri gated The use of sulphur sprays for the control of spider mite is not recom mended at the present time.
