From the present conditions of
fbud development, it will probably be .
necessary to apply the oil spray for
the control of tLe Iriif roller about,
ithe 13tU of April. I
j There is probably no other spray
in our schedule which offers more
Iditlicullies in -:mhk good results
; than the oil pp;i i;ti m. From the
! experimental work that we have car
;iied on. it has been found that the
j Inter th- oil fan It applied the more
I effective its control. The determin
j ing factor in destroying the leaf rol
j ler e;;rs is warm, settled weather at
the time the spray is applied and to
jbe effective several bright, sunny
j days should follow the application.
I (nl used at the rate of six sallow
i to the hundred will cacse some
'lo'.iage injury. However. It is the
! vi riter'se sucestion that, in order to
i sot best results, the grower can at
i ford to sacrifice a little foliuso and
j accomplish the re3ults desired. We
have waited in some years until me
trees showed a faint preen colora
tion before applying the spray. Ap
plications mude at this time have
resulted in much better control than
when applied earlier. The oil should
be used at the rate of six gallons to
I'M gallons of water. Thoroughness
is absolutely necessary, and all por-

I.II.SON URGES THE
SAVING OF FOOD
To the Hood River 1't'hlic:
This word on the policy and pur
pose of the Federal Food Adminis
tration is timely.
1. The Government is askinp the
American people to redi.ee their nor
mal wheut consuripticn hfty per
cent by the use of substitute foods.
To those who are effecting a saving
of fifty per cent of wheat products
b the use of iioinepioducea u
meal I have been given authority to
issue permits so that they may buy
wheat flour without the purchase of
substitutes. Grow corn.
L'. For tlie period of the war all
public and semi-public lunches and
dinners should be held at a regular
meal time and take the place of a
regular meal. These lunches should
be mude public demonstrations of
food savins; and so advertised. Grow
corn. '
We must do ot'.r test. In do
i 1 1 K our best there v. ill be some in
convenience mid hardship. Hut oiir
In aviest sacrifice will be mild coin
pared with the weight of the load
our boys will have to bear over
there. 'Tis a fine lot of American
uuls who are .'otting ready to cross
and who have crossed the water to
fight for freedom. We must back
i.l on to the last l ean. Grow corn:

HOME MARKET FOR
POTATOES SUGGESTED
This may apply to the farmer that
diversities.
J have H7 hogs, farrowed September
1017. On March 11, 1918, they weighed
,ri7.H pounds,. The following six days
they were fed on two parts shorts and
one part middlings. On March 17 they
weighed tiliKJ pounds. Their net gain
ing w as IS 1 pounds.
From March 17 to March 2;i they
were fed on shorts and cooked pota
toes. On March 'S,i they were weighed
again. Total weight being (i.rifi2
pounds, their net gain in six days was
H'.hi pounds. At 17 cents per I'M) pounds
this amounts to iJiiti.HO; consumed 1134
pounds shorts, cost $20; consumed 1400
pounds potatoes at $2.50, $3'; leaves
for labor $11.30.
It being a fact that some of our far
mers here have received as low as 55
cents per 10o pounds for assorted pota
toes, f. o. b. Portland, and sacks being
worth about 20 cents, freight 10 cents
and hauling to town 5 cents, net to the
grower 2u cents per 100 pounds and
trouble of sorting.
1 therefore believe that these few
lines may benefit the farmer who has
hogs and potatoes, or are in shape to
keep hogs, lie would always find a
fair home market for potatoes if the
outside market fails.
Respectfully,
J. P. Thomsen.

Sunday after having spent several
weeks in Portland. Monday and Tues

is now ready to receive cider apples.
To say the play "Civil Service,"
which was put on by Odell high school
last Friday evening, was a success,
would be putting it mildly. Earnest,
faithful practice had for its reward a
condition that was very near perfec
tion itself, not one player faltering
over lines ,but all goingsmoothly from
curtain to curtain. The selection and
makeup of characters, the stage set
ting and coaching during practice,
were factors which contributed largely
toward success and these indicate spe
cial ability on the part of the high
school teachers, to whom great credit
is due.
After having spent about six weeks
at Stanfield, Ore., L. A. E. Clark
came as far as The Dalles Monday and
stopped over for a few days. He ex
pects to arrive home before the end of
this week.
D. D. Crosby is enjoying a car
which he purchased recently.
Next week we expect to tell you
about a wedding. By that time the
contracting parties will be traveling
east - to Wisconsin, we believe.
Next Sunday morning at 10.30 there
will be a children's Easter program at
the Methodist church. We know who
is directing the practice for this pro
gram and we believe no one who is
present at this place and hour will be
disappointed. The usual order of the
evening service will be varied some
what. Rev. Newham will preach and
the Epworth League lesson hour will
probably be given for this service.
FRANKTON.
Frankton has one candidate already
in the political field. Sam Heppner
has his hat in the ring for assessor.
Tom Calkins and wife were Sunday
visitors on the East Side, combining
business with pleasure in the trip.
Virgil Absten returned on Saturday
to Camp lewis, having secured a short
furlough to attend his brother's fu
neral. The big caterpiller steam shovel is
on the job at the top of Ruthton hill
moving tons of rock and dirt daily.
Mrs. M. H. lsenberg and little Jean
came home Sunday from a Portland

She is able to sit up some, but it will
be some time before she will be able
to use her limb again.
The Four Leaf Clover Club will meet
this afternoon with Mrs. M. J. Foley,
on May street.
The Highway work on Ruthton hill
must be very attractive, as hundreds
were out last Sunday to see what was
being done.
The Frankton school was closed last
Friday during the funeral and burial of
Homer Absten. This was done out of
respect for the deceased and the be
reaved family, Mr. Absten.Sr., having
always taken a very active part in the
conduct ot the school. ;
The W. S. S. drive in Frankton the
(iast week did not go over the top with !
tnai iuu per cent, as we tried to make
it, but taking all things into eonsidera-1
lion we think we did our bit and will !
be ready and willing to get. in the bar-!
ness again if it is demanded, and from j
the present outlook the demand will i
come.
Mr. and Mrs. Robert Carpenter, an old
couple who have lived the past year in

Marion Phillips, who has been in
Seattle for some time, with the inten
tion of enlisting in the navy, left there
the last of the week on board a gov
ernment cable ship bound for Hono
lulu. It has been suggested that the en
tertainment committee arranging for
the program for the next Parent
Teacher meeting, at which time the
service flag will be dedicated, arrange
for a basket supper, the baskets to be
furnished by the ladies, with lunch for
two. The baskets to be bought by the
men, each box to contain the lady's
name and the purchaser to be her din
ner partner. The proceeds would help
pay the expenses of theentertainment.
Supt. Gibson will be one of the
speakers the evening of the service
Hag dedication.
The service flag has been ordered
from Portland and will be here in time
that the names of all the boys who
have left their homes in Frankton at
their country's call can be put on after
it is received. Below is a list of the
boys' names as far as known to us.
If any have been omitted their friends
are asked to notify the flag committee
at once: Virgil Absten, Donald Nick-
elsen, Carl Copper, Ivan Seheer, Arch '
Eastman, Clayton Heppner, John Led-1
ford, Bert Ledford, Ray Nicholson, -Merrill
Miller, Art Kerr, Ed Kreig, j
Earl Eby, Raymon Glass, Fred Rob-'
erts, Avis Stockton and Lndi Stockton.
We had hoped to be able to present
more of the program for the coming
entertainment, as the next issue of the
paper will be but one day before the
date, but sometimes committee work
is like tar or molasses, runs rather
slow. We know, for we are one of
them.
