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.

DECREE FOR LAND
. A Judgment and default and decree,
in favor of the Rev. L. F. Belknap
and his wife, Fannie A. Belknap,
against Llewellyn A. Banks, and hi
wife, Edith R. Banks, was entered tn
circuit court Saturday. T. W. Miles
appears as attorney for Belknap. The
action, was one of many filed against
the agitator, editor, and orchardlst,
now awaiting a life sentence for sec
ond degree murder, upon conviction
by a Lane county Jury, for the slay
ing of Constable George J. Prescott.
March 16 last.
Belknap, to whom Banks, testi
mony, at the murder trial, showed
addressed a letter on the morning of
the murder, requesting that he be
prepared to go bonds for him. receiv
ed a Judgment for $17,804.44, attor
ney fees or $500, and $17.30 costs.
The Judgment and decree provide
that the orchard, which Banks bought
from Belknap in 1029, be sold at a
sheriff's sale, as required by law.
The complaint recited that Banks
purchased the orchard for $17,000,
paid $1000 down, and agreed to pay
not less than $4500 yearly, with in
terest until payments were completed.
It was alleged that the agreement had
not been kept.
The complaint also holds that any
claims of the News Publishing Co..
W. H. Norcross, o. B. Waddell, as
signee for the Medford National bank,
and R. A. Matthews may hold by vir
tue of Judgments, are "Junior and in

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.
