IN TREE ROOTS IS
ADVICE OF AGENT
Peach, pram snd prlcot grower,
should at this time make preparation
to apply a concentrated gaa attack
upon the peach and prune root
borers that may lnfeat their tree,,
states L. P. Wilcox, county agent.
The paradlchlorobenzlne gaa meth
od of control Is highly successful U
applied correctly and at the proper
season. 'Therefore, this method is
recommended to growers at thla time.
Weak and devitalised peach, prune
and apricot trees are more than likely
Infested with borers. Oum In masses
around the trunk of tha tree at the
ground level Is a sure algn of borers
being present. The treatment Is sa
follows: Level off the ground arouna
the tree without disturbing the sub
soil. Apply three fourths to one
ounce of finely crushed paradlchloro
benzlne cryatala In a circle an men
wide around the tree trunk. The band
of material should be from one to
two Inches distant from the tree. A
few ahovels full of fine soil should
then be mounded around the tree and
firmed well.
The cryetsls slowly give off a gas
that Is heavier than air which set
tles In around the tree, enters the
tunnels and kllla the borers. For
best results the soil should be dry
and the temperature 65 degrees or
warmer.
Trees younger thsn five years of
age should not be treated, as the gas
may Injure the roots. Such trees, If
Infested, should be dewormed by
means of a knife.

The orders of the county court that
county Jail prisoners serving time be
employed In removal of the top layer
of dirt from the court house lawn
will go Into effect this week. It la
expected that the first detail will get
busy Wednesday morning.
Landscape gardeners have Informed
the county court that It would be a
waste of seed and time to attempt
to sow grass on the present soil, and
point out that the present crop of
weeds has difficulty In growing.
County Agent R. G. Fowler will
select the new soil and supervise Its
spreading after about six Inches of
the present covering has been re
moved. County equipment will be
used In hauling the dirt away. Some
of it will be used In filling up a hole
in the street near the court house.
It Is planned to complete the work
before the winter sets In and to sow
the grnss so the court house yard
will, look like something next spring.
It has been about 20 years since
county Jail prisoners were employed
on public tnsks. The Inst time was
w.hen a groxip picked up rocks from
the toad In front of the Jacksonville

. W. sre giving editorial space to Governor Meier's proclsmstlon
announcing "Automoblle-Accldent-Prerentlon Week," as a fitting
reminder to the people of this community at the present time:
To the People of Oregon:
During the year of 1B3J. two hundred and twenty-eight
1 of Oregon's cltlxens were killed as a direct result of automobile
accidents. More than foity-three hundred of our citizens were
Injured, more than hslf of whom will never fully recover, but
will go through life suffering physical handlcsps.
If a plsgue or pestilence were making the ssme Inroad on
our snlmal or vegetable life that automobile accidents are
making on our human life and happiness, a unanimous cry
would go up. and all would cooperate to stop such loss.
It Is coruervstlvely estimated that ninety percent of all
automobile accidents are the direct result of carelessness of
either driven or pedestrians. In addition to the tremendous
toll of human life and happiness, the annual cost In dollars
to the clttrens of Oregon Is greater than the entire cost of our
etete government.
The month of September will be observed throughout
the nation aa Automobile Accident Prevention month. I
earnestly urge each citizen, the press, and all churches, civic,
patriotic, fraternal and industrial organizations of the com
monwealth to put forth their united efforts toward the elimi
nation of the loss and suffering which follow In the wake of
preventable automobile accidents, by careful driving and
walking and by giving full cooperation to all traffic officers
whose whole aim Is to msk our streets and highways safe for
us and our loved ones. JULIUS I MEIER, Oovernor
