P. Wilcox, county agricul tural agent. The yellow leaved or chlorotlc con illtlon of treea la often due to Iron miration caused by an excessive lime rontent of the soil In which the tree planted. Pear growers here and else where have treated chlorotlo treea ivlth soluble Iron salts by the Injec tion method and have obtained ex L-ellent results In the form of In- creased vigor Indicated by dark green colored leaves. The method consists of boring holes 1-4 to 7-18 of an Inch In diameter Into the trunk of the sick tree, going through the bark and Into the sap wood to a depth of lft to a incnes, Inserting the dry Iron citrate (fer rous citrate) powder by means of a imll funnel and - then sealing the hole with a wooden plug or wnn wax. ;Por smiill trees, two or three Inches In diameter, a single hole mane with a fourth-Inch wood bit la sufficient, while In larger trees two or more In jections should be made with holes paced around the trunk at Intervals of (bout three Inches. The amount of Iron citrate powder per hole should approximate one-tenth of an- ounce. The treatment Is best made In the late mtmant period of the tree and before erowth starts In the spring.

CWA fund for these workora atopped yoeterdny. But the moun tain were cot flnlahed and tf.e rocka not all In place. Aa they knocked off work for the day, one of the men approached Olyd S. Hill, soo superintendent, , and asked: "How do we get In the pen tomorrow?" H1U looked hla sur prise. "Wall," explained the workman, "some of us hate to leave this Job unfinished, after the way we've worked to make It so beautiful, so w port of thought we'd come out and finish It on our own time.

(Jerry) Jerome, general chairman of Oregon's Diamond Jubilee celebration, the Roy al Bell Ringers, also known as the Swedish-American Bell orchestra, will render a program at the high school on March 8th, at a p. m., It was an nounced today. The Royal Bell Ring ers are known as America's musical sensation and the wonderful music la supplied through the medium of 206 bells. The program also Includes several glassophone numbers and se lections by the male quartette. The proceeds of the concert will go towards the publicity fund for the general committee of the Jubllle cele bration, Mr. Jerome announced. The Royal Bell Rlngera Is now on Its third tour of the United Statiu and Is stopping off at Med ford en route East. Before coming to Med ford, they are playing In Seattle and other of the larger cities Including a con cert at Portland In the civic audi torium. The orchestra uses the largest and only set of bells, like them, in the United States, the set being made to order by the White -Chapel Bell Foundry, London, England, makers of the famous Liberty Bell. O. E. Swanson, director of the or chestra, has devised a system used only by this orchestra, whereby each of the flvo performers has before him a full set of bells, chromatically ar ranged, which enables the group of musicians to play any selection by music, a fete considered Impossible by the usual method of bell ringing, where the bells havo to be arranged for each selection. The skill and co ordination with which these five men handle the 206 bells Is Intriguing to the best musicians. Oscar J. Kulle, U. 8. Navy (retired), and manager of the Royal Bell Ring ers, was In Medford Wednesday and completed arrangements with Mr. Jerome for their appearance here. Popular prices will prevail for the show and will be 85c for adults end lftc for children under twelve years of age. This outstanding musical ag gregation should pack the high school auditorium, especially In view of t;ie fact that the proceeds will go to the Diamond Jubilee celebration.

Not only for his "ffklppy" creations but for, various endeavors In art and humanitarian fields. If he believes, In an Idea he will dig Into his own purse to carry It through and he's a valiant defender of the under dog. He Is, in glamour, to the art world of his generation what Charles Dana Gibson. was in his, and has a twist for the national emotion few artiste achieve.

It Is grossing as much, if not more, than Broadway's hit plays and seems es pecially designed for gentlemen and ladlea out for no good.
