Members are asked to be house committee on riven and har bors has requested the board of en gineer to review the reports, accord ing to word received here by Post master. Frank DeSouza. The letter also states that "a report has been received from the division engineer recommending that the ex isting project be modified so far as to provide for extension of the present breakwater to Round Rock, construc tion of a south breakwater about 6300 feet long, and excavation to a depth of 30 feet below mean lower low wat er of a harbor basin about 3800 feet long and from 500 to 2000 feet wide." From information now in posesslon of the board, the group does not con sider the project advisable at the pres ent time for the following reasons: The existing project affords facili ties considered adequate for a much larger commerce than now handled through the port. The reasonably prospective commerce, even where a railroad constructed to Grants Pad, does not appear to Justify the-lare cost of providing a deep water harbor at this locality at the present time." 1 Report on porcupine control In the Rogue River national forest made to in v. . 1.1 ... ..

Such have been the findings of experiment stations both Califor nia and Oregon, according, to the statement of County Agent L. P. Wil cox. "Little leaf," or rosette affected trees have leaves that are small li size and show a yellow streaked or mottled appearance. Die-back of ter minal growth from svason to season Is common. The exact cause of such behavior is not known, but health improvement has been obtained by a soli treatment with zinc sulphate. The method of applying this ma terial is as follows: Prepare a trench surrounding the sick tree from one to two feet distant from the trunk and deep enough to expose small roots, this will be approximately one foot In depth. Apply five to ten pounds of rlnc sulphate In .he bottom of such trench and cover. Application may be made any time during the growing period of the tree, but preferably Just prior to growth activity n the spring. One treatment will influence the tree for a period of two or three years, at which time the proceiyj may be repeated.
