PAGE FOUR MTCTIFORD MATL TRIBUNE. MEDFORT). OREGON, THURSDAY, JULY 15, 1937. FROM SPRAY RESIDUES, SCIENTISTS INFORMED (Continued rruro Ps one.) Communications meeting ot the Northwest Association of Horticulturists. O. U. Morrli, Pullman, reporting m an Investigation ot the affect of spray residues on cover crops of old Washington orchards, told the open ing session of scientist from four states and British Columbia that tests show arsenic rather than lead Is a toxic substance in plant growth. In some places experiment reveal ed that It was Impossible to get a stand of alfalfa and applications of decaying organic fertilizers or certain pure chemicals were found to be the best corrective. R. A. Schoth, federal agronomist of Oregon State college, told the dele gates that new cover crops of many kinds, even weeds, have been made available for growers. A new alfalfa with a trailing habit. Introduced so recently that leas than a dozen, plants ezlst In the northwest, may be Im portant In the future because disease and Insect problem may fore many changes. W elcome to the Fleet To the editor: The good citizens of this fair city should feel mighty hefty, when they park their carcasses. A courageous group of public spirited soul have Inoculated themselves with the Idea of having the Pacific Fleet rendezvous at Orante Pass, or Uedford, prefer ably the Utter. Despite the rancid odor that la at once apparent upon first contact with this proposition, pencil and paper speedily eliminates all sniffs, and whiffs. The subject really Jells with marveloua rapidity. It sticks tool Just like gum under a lunch counter. In order to bring the fleet to Uedford, the sum of S7S.263.001. 12 will be necessary. This amount will dredge the Rogue river from Oold Beach to Grant Pas and muck out Bear creek. Upon completion of this work, a navigable stream will be available for ocean craft from Oold Beach right up to the Roxy theatre. Substitute a draw bridge In place ot the present obsolete structure on East Main atreet, and goodness knows how far the fleet might sail per haps to Ashland. In order to Justify their "bring me iieei u me nogue mver vauey ' Lawn move' service, tall and del movement, the point Is stressed that jejJtal Bike ahiv Tel.869 411 E. Main no jetiys, or ureaswaiers win oe necessary, similar to those of Reeds port, Florence, Crescent City and Columbia, river. The present harbor at Grants Pass and the waters of Bear creek are unruffled during the entire year. Also the climate is Ideal, and the facilities for anchoring these huge fighting machines Is entirely adequate. There are no ferry boats or barges cluttering the tea way. Even the omission of lighthouses, buoys and other markers should of fer no serious obstacle. The high way and railroad mile posts axe clearly visible after the vessels jour ney a sufficient distance up stream. Another thing there are covey of pretty girls In the valley, the cream of the crop. Quite enough for every goo, wno ever manned a swab, with some left over for the marines. The officers can go chase themselves. The only flsw that I find with this "Welcome to the Fleet- Idea Is. the naval committee didn't go far enough. Why not show the country how broad-minded we sre. and ask the navy depsrtment to make a eur vey for a navy yard and dry dock. The land can be donated similar to Tongue Point on the Columbia river. Of course sarcasm will be leveled at all of this. Still there are forts In Montana, Nebraska and Wyom ing, fully mechanized to ward off any possible Indian uprising. O. U BULLEN. , 710 8.
