BON VOYAOE-Lee Meriwether, 98, of St. - Louis, Mo., sailed aboard the Lurllne from San Francisco after a round of pre-sailing shipboard aloha kisses that "takes 80 years : . off my life."

(UPI Telephoto) Algeria Peace Talks Hoped This Week , Parls-flJPD - Negotiations to settle the war between France and the Algerian rebels may begin next Friday after a two- week delay, informed sources aid Saturday.. ' Both government and rebel leaders indicated optimism that talks to end the 6-V4 ' year Moslem insurrection would open soon. Sources here were confident the negotiations would get un derway, at the latest, a few days after their predicted date of next Friday. They said the machinery set up prior to an abortive try at peace talks earlier this month would per mit bargaining to resume Fri-. day if an agreement to meet1 again was reached by Mon day.; i - - t ...... Calyx Spray Should Be Applied to Pears Soon Calyx spray should be , ap plied to pears, if needed, after 80 per cent of the petals have fallen, County Horticultural Agent Clifford B. Cordy and Entomolgist Louis B. Gentner have recommended. If new scab roots are show ing or if the orchard has a bad scab history, they recom mended seven pounds of Zi ram per acre or Vyi pounds per 100 gallons, If lots of new scab spots show up, four pounds of Cyprex per acre of three-fourths pound per 100 gallons may be used, the two men recommended, . 1 v Psylla are generally well controlled, but if a spray is needed, ; they recommended six pounds of Parathion per acre or one pound per 100 gallons, This will also control aphis and European Red Mltfi; and will help with control of San Jose scale. Parathion Is a good insurance material be cause of Its broad control and can be added if any spray is applied, Cordy pointed out. Late . blossoms opening, on Bartletts are susceptible to blight. Ziram will give some protection, but one - fourth pound of neutral copper per 100 gallons is better, and should be used if blossoms are numerous or blight was a problem last year, Cordy said. Streptomycin is effective, but its added expense hardly seems justified except in ex treme cases. All of the materials are com patible, so may be mixed in Committee Reports Given at SOCTFA Meeting in City Several committee reports were presented at Friday night'j meeting of Southern Oregon Conservation and Tree Farm association.

Commerce commission has issued a tem porary, suspension of -seven cents per 100 pounds reduc tion in outbound lumber shipments from the west, ac cording to.' Huss Hogue,. chairman-of ' the SOCTFA traffic committee. This may become a perma nent suspension, Hogue said, or the ICC may call for a hearing; It could mean more than $25 million to western lumber shippers, he pointed out, and the reduction is vital to western lumber areas if they are to .compete with lum ber producing areas in the east and south. .
