Yours for prompt service and Good Milk THOS. D. CALKINS White River Flour Makes Bread Having the Old Bready Flavor AT YOUR GROCERS From the Mosier Bulletin In pursuing scab investigation!. Hugo E. Birkner, who for tbe put five years has made orchard work a ipecial study, and who has carefully prepared himself by a study of 'national and state horticultural bulletins, practical experience, and a thorough course of instruction under the Davey Tree Ex pert company, of Illinois, was asked to give to the readers of the Bulletin the pathology and history of apple scab. Mr. Birkner, who has charge of the or chard of F. A. Shogren, ia of an inves tigating trend of mind, and ia con stantly laboring for tbo control and elimination of all orchard infections and diseases. Following ia Mr. Birkner'a treatise on the subject of apple scab: Apple Scab (Venturia inoequalis.) "This fungus disease is one of the most destructive with which the apple growers have to contend, owing to its wide range and almost annual occur ance. It will become injurious every season if there is sufficient moieture at the right periods for the spores to mature and germinate. "Unlike the other destructive dis eases, the scab may cause its injury early in tbe season and even destroy the crop without the orchardist realiz ing the cause. "The winter stage is passed in the dead leaves upon the ground. If the j weather is favorable, as the leaves are developing in the spring, the atco Epores (spores in cases) mature and are shot intn the air to be caught by the wind and carried to the young fruit or leaves where they germinate and start infection. A couple of cold, rainy days during hte first month or two of growth is most favorable for this to happen. 'After the leaves and fruit are once infected from these spores, the scab spots produced are capable of forming the summer spores (conidiophores) by which the disease can be spread, at any time when the weather conditions are favorable, even un to the time when the fruit is nearly ready to pick. The greatest damage can be done during a rainy spell juet before, during or after the blossoming period. If the condiitona are favorable at this time. the greatest injury is caused by the stems of the fruit becoming infected, As the scab develops, it interferes with the proper flow of sap at this point, preventing the fruit from devel oping, lliis injury causes the young apples to fall just after blossoming or as the "June drop." In this way, the crop is destroyed so early in the season that the grower does not realize the full extent of his Ions, or if he does, he generally attrib utes it to cold weather, imperfect pol Ionization of the fruit, or to a number of other imaginary causes. When he comes to know the real culprit, is usu lly the time when he begins to spray to protect himself against this loss. If the fruit is sprayed with a fungi cide in such a manner as to keep it thoroughly covored, the spores of the fungus are uanble to germinate and penetrate the tissue and consequently cannot produce the scab spots. A dry spring that prevents the ascospores in the fallen leaves upon the ground from maturing, or the spores from germi nating and penetrating the tissues of the leaves and young fruit, will accom plish the same result. To cause infec tion requires a rainy spell of from 36 to 48 hours. A cold drizzling rsin makes the ideal condition for the spread of the disease. "1 he best protection by the fungi cide is secured by spraying the trees thoroughly as soon as the blossom buds separate sufficiently to make it possi ble to reach the stems with tbe solu tion, but the work must be started in time to complete it before the blos soms open. "A second application should be made just after the petals fall and a third about three or four weeks later. In case the trees are infected and the weather rainy, a fourth application should be made nine to ten weeks after the petals fall, to prevent late infec tion of the fruit. "Historically, scab is not a new dis ease although of apparently recent oc currence here. It is known practically everywhere the apple grows in Amer ica, Europe, Australia, New Zealand, Africa, and elsewhere. It is essential ly a cool climate disease and in the southern states only occurs in the ele vated districts. Scab was the first apple disease to receive the attention of investigators, and its successful treatment was worked out as early as 1891. In 1892 the Cornell station came to the reali zation of the importance of early spraying for scab. In this year the first application, using "Bordeaux mix ture was made June 13, about one week after the blossoms had fallen from tne trees. At the time of the second spray, June 22, small portions affected with scab fungus could occa sionally be found upon the apples in places thickly covered by the Bordeaux mixture previously applied. These por tions were undoubtedly attacked before the first spray waa made." This spray it will be seen was applied soon after the petals fell but waa too late. That the first spray should be on before the blossoms open was made evident by the findings of another investigator who found tha mycelium upon apple twigs even before tha buds broke. Following these findings, Lodemon in 1896 recommended the following sched ule for scab control : First, spray with a solution of copper sulphate when the buds are swelling; second, spray with Bordeaux mixture just before the blos soms open ; and third, spray as soon as the petals fall with Bordeaux mixture. I Later sprays he recommended if the weather was conducive tocctbdeve I opmeni w Ben so treated, the f rnit and toe loiiaga win oe practically per reel as regards acao lrjury.' In the same year find Galloway advising hte following schedule: Toe Bordeaux mixture, making, tha first application before tbe blossoms open. When the flowers are opening spray again, then a third time when the fruit in about the size of a pea. After this two or more treatments should te made, the number depending son, e hut on the variety treated, weather rendition, and so forth. Ordinarily, five sprsjingi will be sufficient to hold the diet ase in check, but if tbe sesson is rainy more should be given.' "In 1906, ten yeas latir, Waite ha the following campaign to offer 'bpray witn Bordeaux (either 4-5-50 or the 5-5-50 formula.) as follows rim, when the cluster LuU.s have opened and exposed the tluwer buds second, just after the ptt:ils have fat len; third, a week or ten db.vs later and, fourth, two weeks after the third spraying, in a rainy season this dis ease is rather difficult tu control and may require five or six applications In case of a dry spring, huwever, only three sprayings are require!.' A 1 . .nAI. tit n year laier, pvi, w. ai. acott roc ommended spraying 'with Bordeaux mixture 5-5-50 formula, ticn the clus ter buds are open but before blooming and again as soon as the petals have fallen. If the second application has not been very thorough, a third should be made seven or ten days later. In case of a wet spring three siiravinss are usually necessary. In 1909, Duggar, submits the follow ing spray campaign for scab: 'At least.one spraying should he made with strong Bordeaux mixture before bios sommg. A second spraying may be given immediately after the petals fall and at least one more two Keeks after the second. Tbe conditions, however, must determine the length of time in tervening and the number of applica tions made.' Again in 1912 W. M. Scott, after re peated experiments had the following in a government bulletin: 'Until re cently spraying with bordeaux mix ture constituted the remedy for scab, out owing 10 me injurious eilect on both the fruit and foliage produced by mis oinerwise excellent lungicide, es pecialy during wet seasons, dilute lime sulphur solution is rapidly coming into UBe as a substitute for it. Lime sul phur has about the same fungicide value as Bordeaux mixture in the treatment of apple scab and produces aeciueaiy less injury to iruit and foli age. Taking a solution registering .12 aegrees tsaurne as a standard, the strength to use in spraying for scab is U or 1$ gallons to each 50 gallons of water, bpray the tree first when the cluster buds open, juet before blossom ing ; second, as soon as the petals fall and third, two or three weeks later. "In April 1915, C. S. Jackson, of the uregon Agricultural College, recom mended the use of lime and sulphur in preierence to me riordeaux. In Australia Masses recommends the pruning off and burning of all in fected twigs. "When the leaf buds begin to swell and before they expand, spray with Bordeaux mixture full strength. Then when the leaves are quite young spray with half strength iioraeaux mixture. Spraying withuut firuning off the infected shoots ia use ess.'"

HOOD RAILROAD COMPANY EAST SIDE YOUNG MEN CATCH BURGLAR Two young men of the East Side, Fred Brokaw and Chester Monacot, last Friday caught a burglxr at the home of J. D. McCully, Nestledyn. Mr. brokaw is in charge of the place during the absence of Mr. ar d Mrs. McCully. who are at Josephs. He had been in the habit of entering the place hy a basement door. The key waa kept under a mat there. On Friday, when the young men were taking eggs to the cellar, they discovered that someone bad taken the key and entered the house. They found that eggs, potatoes and other provi sions were missing. A box from a pantry, filled with eggs, led them to believe that the cutorit was still in the house, nad sure enough, after the lights were turned on, they soon saw his feet, as he stood on the stairs. The man showed fight, but was quickly tamed when Brokaw pulled a big jack knife from his pocket, leveling it as he would have done a pistol, and threat ened to shoot. Ihe young men told the burelar. a foreigner about 35 years of aie and evidently a tramp, that they would re lease him. if he would return the stolen goods. The man led them to nearby jungles, where they secured tbe booty, which had been placed in burlap bags and cached.
