WASHINGTON, March 7. (AP)
J. N. "Ding" Darling, chief of the
biological survey today announced a
purchase of 64,717 acres in Harney
county, Oregon, for use as a migra
tory bird refuge.
The area, formerly a ranch, will
become the Blltzen river migratory
bird refuge. Darling said It will be
of strategic importance In' Insuring
a water supply for the Lake Malheur
bird refuge adjoining It on the
north.

of this rtver they have a monopoly
on commercial fishing. The pound
age taken In there has dropped con
tinuously since 1930 from about 1,
000.000 pounds a year to' less than
200.000 pounds last year. X have
nothing against commercial fishing
in commercial streams, but the Rogue
river Is not a commercial stream,
Tourists profit More
"We have built up the tourist in
dustry," Chlnnock continued, "which
is large compared to the Insignificant
number employed in commercial
fishing. Golh Beach at the mouth of
the river would be tetter off to build
I up the tourist business. The Rogue
was never Intended to be a commer
cial stream. It is not large enough.'
Senator Stringer supplemented
Chlnnock's defense of the bill, stat
ing that "this bill should not be re
ferred to the people because the peo
ple care nothing about the situation
People In general over the state have
formed the habit of voting 'no' on
the question when they don't know
anything about it, and are not con
cerned with it."
Dunn I'rges Passage
"I have fished in me Rogue rtver
before many of you here were born,"
Senator Dunn of Jackson county de
clared. "I don't like to see that fish
Ing paradise ruined by commercial
fishing. The few people In Curry
county who want the river left open
are only a small per centage of those
affected by this legislation. We're
not taking away the livelihood from
lot of poor people. There are only
40 of them engaged In the business
and all of them do not live in that
part of the country."
Goss closed the argument with the
statement that "these people want
the river closed as a matter of adver
tising so that they can say to the
world at large that the river is closed
to commercial fishing."
Vote on final passage of the meas
ure was as follows:
For Aitken, Allen, Best, Burke,
Bynon, Chlnnock, Dickson, Duncan,

Weed Out Legislation
Quietly, house and senate leaders
were sifting out legislation of Im
portance still pending and moving
It on its way toward final action.
Minor bills of a controversial nature
were being diplomatically sidetrack
ed by withdrawal and the mill-run of
measures was being bottled up In
committees or disposed of by Indefi
nite postponement.
Aside from the appropriation meas
ures, all of which will be in the
house hopper by tonight or Friday
morning, there is little of major Im
portance to clog up the machinery.
The principal stumbling block is the
lengthy and Involved bus and truck
bill, embracing amendments to the
existing law, on which the house
committee spent 50 days. It has not
yet passed the house and still has
to run the gauntlet of the senate
committee and be placed on third
reading In the upper chamber.
For once, however, the large and
small truck owners appear to be sat
isfied, but there were some members
who still forecast a battle over the
measure that will hold the lawmakers
In session Into next weex.
Would Quit Saturday.
Upon them a majority of the mem
bership was aervlng notice that, truck
bill or no truck bill, sdjoumment
wss going to be taken Saturday night.
This may mean stopping the clock
at midnight and labc.-iivt on well into
Sunday, but any attempt to further
prolong the session will likely find
the prolonger without the necessary
quorum Monday morning. It was predicted.
Unemployment relief and old se
pension legislation hss been disposed
of up to the apparent ability of the
state to pay.
Amendments to the Knox liquor
control act have been passed by both
house snd senate, and are now in
conference on minor matters of
amendments made by the senate. The
liquor revenue act. with Its increased
taxes on beer and wines, la due to
be reported back to the huuse tor
action on final passage Friday. Speedy
action by the senate will be neces
sary to slide the measure, upon the
enactment of which hinges the bulk
of unemployment relief revenues dur
ing the next two years, through by
Saturday night.

COR V ALUS (Spt.l Weeds and !
moss in the lawn can be eliminated ,
to considerable extent In the early
spring by use of a number of chenil- I
cal preparations which may be mixed !
at home. An effective weed formula
Is being used at Oregon State col- '
lege where it is applied to dande
lions and other fleshy rooted plants
by means of a pointed stick.
As described by A. L. Peck, head
of the landscape architecture depart
ment, the material Is made up as fol
lows: Take one-quarter ounce of
white arsenic and one-half gallon
of soft water and boll well. Add an
other gallon of soft water and one
third ounce of caustic soda and boll
again. This forms a stock solution
used straight for killing individual
weeds, but which may be diluted
with four parts of water to sprinkle
on gravel walks or drives to keep
down weed growth.
Caretakers on the college campus
put a long wire ball on a tin can
which holds the solution. They dip
the point of a sharp soft wood stick
In the solution and then plunge the
stick down into the crown of the
dandelion, which dies In two or three
days. The solution Is highly poison-
out and Is treated accordingly, the
surplus being stored In glass under
lock.
Moss may be eradicated bv raking
it well to remove the thick patches,
and then spraying with a solution of
ammonium sulphate dissolved at the
rate of 33 ounces In a gallon of
water. The most effective way la to
apply during a period of clear wea
ther, using a pressure sprayer, though
fair results may be had by either
sprinkling it on or even scattering
the material In dry crystalline form.
Ammonium sulphate Is a common
commercial fertiliser available from
most feed and seed dealers. It helps
the grass, while discouraging weed
growth. If applied too strong It may
cause 'some browning of the grass
temporarily. It Is not as satisfactory
for use on clover lawns as some
other fertilizers.
