LET IS PAY TR1BITE
As Americans let all of us today go
reverently with the veterans of battles
i f other days to the cemeteries, and
there with loving care strew flowers
ovre the graves of departed comrades
for whom the trumpets of war will
sound no more. This is a day that be
longs to ua all. On such celebrations
of former years some families of the
later day generation may not have had
the urge to participate, for the wars of
other days may not have touched them.
Today we will be paying tribute also
to heroes of 1917 and 1918, men who
have sacrificed their live in our own
time for the right to happiness and sa
cred liberty of every family in our
land.
On the cover page of the current Ked
Cross magazine is a touching picture
of a veteran of the blue clad Union
Army on the right. On the left is u
veteran of the Confederacy. Between
them stands a soldier in olive drab.
The caption reads : Blue plus Gray
equals Khaki. Go today with these
veterans of another war, join them in
their tributes to their comrades, help
them to place in a sacred niche of our
memory thoughts of those men who
have fallen in France, their sons and
grandsons and, with an all powerful
pride, to pay homage to the 2,000,000
men in khaki, those men who are ever
in our prayers.
ABSTAIN FROM WHEAT H.01R
Let Oregon go into the list of wheat
less Btates. Instead of Victory bread,
let the bakers distribute only War
bread. The latter contains no wheat
flour. Yet it is palatable and health
ful. As a matter of habit we have be
come accustomed to wheat flour. But
we can break those habits, and our
sacrifice will be light. Scores of Hood
Kiver housewives have already learned
how to make the most appetizing
breads from oat, barley or corn flour.
Even though the plans for a wheat
less state demand the greatest of sac
rifice on our part, why should we not
be willing to make it? You have to
go no further than the letters we have
recently received from our own soldier
boys in France to find out just how
enormous ha9 been the burden of the
civilian populations of our allied coun
tries. The wheat flour is needed to
keep them and their fighting men from
actual hunger. Won't you sacrifice to
help them?
Woman Burned to Death
The charred body of Mrs. Florence
Jackman was found by neighbors in
the ruins of a ranch house on the Chip
ping place in the Odell district yester
day morning. The cause of the fire
and why Mrs. Jackman was unable to
escape is a mystery to the residents of
the district. No foul play, according
to neighbors, is suspected.
Mis. Jackman and her husband, who
survives, came here a few weeks ago
from Sutherlm. She was 21 years old.
Accidents Numerous
An epidemic of serious accidents
seems to have struck here. Two
prominent orchardists, A. U. Lewis
and M. O. Downing, are laid up, the
former having sustained a badly
wrenched leg when his sprayer team
ran away. Mr. Downing's arm was
caught and crushed by the cogs of a
spray machine.
James Over, a workman at the
Mitchells 1'oint Lumber Co., sustained
a broken leg and possibly internal in
juries in a logging accident yesterday.
Bailey Chosen as Principal
W. K. Bailey, of Gladstone, who has
just returned from the Philippine
Islands, where for the past several
years he has been supervising principal
of a large school, has been elected by
the school board to succeed C. C.
Crews as principal of the high school.
Mr. Bailey is a graduate of the Uni
versity of Oregon.
Soldier Proud of Son
Perhaps no soldier of the spruce di
vision of the signal corps is prouder
than Pvt. William Martin. A bouncing
boy whs born Monday morning to Mrs.
Martin at the Cottage hospital. The

to be with Mis. Martin.

AMERICAN SUGAR :
SENT TOJRANGE
American Price Rigidly Regulated
by United States Food
Administration.
CONSUMERS HERE PAY 9c.
Sugar Coat 35 Centi a Pound During
Civil War Refiners' Profits i
Now Curtailed.
i
I
Sulfur la selling today throughout j
America ml from 81? to U ceut a j
pound !o the consumer, eveu though j
there Is a world shortage which baa !
reduced this nation mjtur allotment
to 70 per cent, of normal.
Through the efforts of the United
States food administration the sugar
market has been regulated as fur as
the producer, refiner and wholesaler
la concerned. The food adtntulstration
ha no power to regulate retail prices
except by public opinion. Kveu though
more than 85,000 tons of ugr have
been shipped to France in th last
four months the retail grocer's sugar
price Is nrouiid 8 to 84 cents, lie
should sell this sugar at 84 to 9
cents, the food administration believes,
ami askn the American housewife to
pay 110 more thau this amount.
Last August when the food admin
istration was organized the price of
sugar rose suddenly to 11 cents a
pound. rurinj; the f'hll War sugar
cost the consumer S. cents a pound.
By regulation of the sugar market and
reducing the price to aud 9 cents
and keeping It from advancing to 20
cents the food administration has sav
ed the American public at least $180.
000,000 In four months, according to
statement made by Herbert Hooter
the other day.
"It Is our stern duty to feed the al
lies, to maintain their health and
strength at any cost to ourselves,"
Mr. Hoover declared. "There has not
been, nor will be as we see It, enough
sugar for even their present meagre
and depressing ration unless they send
ships to remote markets for It. If we
In our greed and gluttony force them
either to further reduce their ration
or to send these ships we will have
done damage to our abilities to win
this war.
"If we send the ships to Java
for 250,000 tons of sugar next year
we will have necessitated the em
ployment of eleven extra ships for
one year. These hlps If used in
transporting troops would take
150,000 to 200,000 men to France."
Reason for World Shortage.
As Mr. Hoover pointed out, the
I'nlted States, Canada and England
were sugar Importing countries before
the war, while Trance and Italy were
very nearly self supporting. The main
sources of the world's sugiir supply
was Germany and neighboring powers,
the West Indies and the Knst Indies.
Oeriniin sugar Is no longer available,
ns It Is used entirely In (iermnny,
which also absorbs sugar of surround
ing countries.
England can no longer buy 1,400,000
long tons of sugar each year from
Germany. The French sugar produc
tion has dropped from 7,'pO.OOO to 210,-
000 tons. The Itnlian production has
falleu from 210.1 100 tons to ".VMM) tons.
Thus three countries were thrown
upon Knst and West Indian sources
for 1,92.',(KKI tons annually to mulntuln
ihelr normal consumption.
Itecsuse of the world's shipping
shortage the allied nations started
drawing on the West Indies for sugar;
East Indian sugar took three times
the number of ships, since the dls
lance was three times as great. Sud
denly the west was called on to fur
nish and did furnish 1,420,immi tons of
sugar to Europe when MOO.OtM) tons a
year was the pre-war demand. The
allies bud drawn from Java 400,MM)
tons before the shipping situation be
came acute.
"In spite of these shipments," Mr.
Hoover stated the other day, "the
English government In August reduced
the household sugar ration to h basis
of 24 pounds per annum per capita.
And In September the French govern
ment reduced their household ration
to 13 2-10 pounds a year, or a bit over
1 pound of sugar n month. Even this
meagre ration could not be filled by
the French government It was found
early in the fall. America was then
asked for 1 00,000 tmis of sugar and
succeeded In sending S'.Onil tons by
December I. The French request was
grunted because the American house
hold consumption wits then at least 05
pound' per person, and It was consid
ered the duty of maintaining tbe
French morale made our course clear."
Today the sugar situation may
be summarized by stating that If
America will reduce Its sugar con
sumption 10 to 15 per cent, this
nation will be able to send 200,000
more soldiers to France.
Sugar today sells at seaboard re
fineries at $7.2.) a hundred pounds.
The wholes'iile grocer has agreed to
limit his p.lt to 25 cents n hundred
plus freight, and the retail grocer Is
tipposed to take no more than R0 cents
a hundred pounds profit. This regu
lation was made by the food adminis
tration, which now asks the housewife
to reduce sugar consumption 11s much
ss possible, using other sweeteners,
and also reminds her that she should
pay no more than 9 cents a pound for
I sugar.

I tuenf of tbe food administration," Mr.

Hoover said, ' m examination was:
made of the cos's and profits of reOo- I
lug and It was ru.!l determined tta '
the spread htweeii the cost of raw !
and tbe sale of refined t ane sugar J
should be limited t $1 HO ler hundred i
pounds. The pre-war differential bad
averaged about 8"i ceuts aud increased
iv:s were found to have been Impos
ed by the war fn increased cost of re
fining, losses, cost of bag, labor. Insur
ance, Interest and 1 ther things, rather j
more than cover the difference. After
prolonged negotiations the rdAnert
were placed under agreement estab
lishing these limits on October 1, and
anything over this amount tle agreed
eitortlonate under tbe law.
"In tbe course cf thee Investiga
tions it was found by canvass of the
Cuban pr.nlui-iiis that their sugar had,
during the first nine months of tbe
past year, sold for an average of about
$4.24 per hundred f. o. b. Cuba, to
which duty and freight added to the
refiners' cost amount to about 1586
per hundred. The average sale price
of granulated by various refineries, ac
cording to our investigation, was about
$7.Mt per hundred, or a differential of
$1.84.
"In reducing tbe differential to $1.30
there was a saving to the public of M
rents per hundred. Had such a dif
ferently been In use from the 1st of
January, 1917, the public would bare
saved In the first nine months of the
year about $21,800,000."
Next Year.
With a view to more efficient organ
ization of the trade in Imported sugars
next year two committees have been
formed by the food administration:
1. A committee comprising repre
sentatives of all of the eleiuents of
American cane refining groups. The
principal duty of this committee Is to
divide the sugar Imports pro rata to
their various capacities and see that
absolute Justice Is done to every re
finer. 2. A committee comprising three rep
resentatives of the English, French
und Italian governments; two repre
sentatives of the American refiners,
with a member of tbe food administra
tion. Only two of the committee have
arrived from Europe, but they repre
sent the allied governments. The du
ties of this committee are to determine
the most economical sources from a
transport point of view of all the al
lies to arrange transport at uniform
rates, to distribute the foreign sugar
between the I'niled States and allies,
subject to the approval of tbe Ameri
can, English, French and Italian gov
ernments. This committee, while holding strong
views as to the price to be paid for
Cuban sugar, has not had the final
voice. This voice has rested In the
governments concerned, together with
tbe Cnhiih government, and I wish to
state emphatically that all of the gen
tlemen concerned as good commercial
men have endeavored with the utmost
patience and skill to secure n lower
price, and their persistence has re
duced Cuban demands by 13 cents per
hundred. The price agreed upon Is
about $ 1.00 per hundred pounds, f. o. h.
Cuba, or equal to about $0 duty paid
New York.
"This price should eventuate,"
Mr. Hoover said, "to about $7.30
per hundred for refined sugar from
the refiners at seaboard points or
should place sugar in the hands of
the consumer at from 8J'2 to 9
cents per pound, depending upon
locality and conditions of trade, or
at from 1 to 2 cents below the
prices of August last and from one
half to a cent per pound cheaper
than today.
"There Is now un elimination of
speculation, extortionate profits, and
in the retiring alone the American
people will save over $2.VKMI,000 of
l he refining charges last year. A purt
of these savings goes to the Cuban,
Hawaiian, Porto ltlcun and Lousianiai)
producer and part to the consumer.
"Appeals to prejudice against the
food administration have been made
because the Cuban price Is 84 cents
above that of 1017. It is said in effect
that the Cubans are at our mercy;
1 1 1 11 1 we could get sugar u cent lower
We made exhaustive study of the cost
of producing sugar in Cuba last year
ihrough our own agents In Cuba, and
we find It uveruges .'1..'1D, while many
producers are at a higher level, We
found that nu average profit of at
least a cent per pound was necessary
in order to maintain and stimulate
production or thai a minimum price of
$4.37 was necessary, and eveu this
would stifle some producers.
"The price ultlmatelv agreed was 23
cents above these figures, or about one-
fifth of a cent per pound to the Ameri
can consumer, and more than this
amount has been saved by our reduc
tion In refiners' profits. If we wish to
stifle production In Cuba we could
take that course Just at the time of all
times In our history when we want
production for ourselves and the al
lies. Further than that, the state de
partment will assure you that such n
course would produce disturbances In
Cuba and destroy even our present
supplies, but beyond all these material
reasons Is one of human Justice. This
great country has 110 right by the
might of Its position to strangle Cuba.
"Therefore there Is no Imposition
. upon ihe American public. Charges
', have been made before this eommlt-
tee that Mr. Kolph endeavored to ben
I etit the California refinery of which he
! was pinnnger by this 34 cent increase
In Cuban price. Mr. Itolph did not fix
the price. It does raise the price to
the Hawaiian fanner about thnt
amount. It does not nil mo the profit of
the California refinery, because their
charge for refining Is, like all oilier re
finers, limited to $1.30 per hundred
pounds, plus the freight differential on
the established custom of the trade.
"Mr. Itolph bus not one penny of In-
j terest In that refinery."
GROWERSIURGED TO
SPRAV FOR MOTH
By Leroy Childs.
The present development of apjrte
scab and the codling moth makes the
recommendations for the applica
tion of the ten-day spray very prob
lemantieal, especially considering
the valley as a whole.

Present developments indicate
t int trouble from the codling moth ,
can be expected unless growers take
extra precaution in the control of
the insects this summer. Many or-
chardists were very late with the j
calyx application and still others i
failed to even apply the spray, j
Where such conditions occurred m
the orchard very close watch of the
insect will have to be maintained 01
much damage will result before bar
vest time.
The emergence of the tirst brood
of moths will be very irregular and
long drawn out, which will result iu
a long drawn out period for the
latching of the small worms. Some
moths appeared in the hot spell of
three weeks ago. During the past
week a good many have emergeu fn
the breeding cages located in differ
ent sections of the valley. This in
dicates that the moths are issuing
rattier generally in the orchards ui
the valley aud that they will soon be
depositing eggs. Kgg laying does
rot become extensive until a tem
perature of 00 degrees or more is
reached after sundown - the time at
which eggs are deposited. I'p to
the present time this teiniMiatui'.
has not occurred, but it can bo ex
pected most any time now. In or
der to be adequately protected, it
means that arsenate of lead should
bo used in a delayed ten-day spray.
Ir. orchards where codling moth in
jury was prevalent last season grow
ers should by all means take this
extra precaution to check the devel
opment of the first brood. This
should be followed up with the regu
lar moth spray or 30-day application,
which will he due about the 15tli of
.June. The exact time of this appli
cation will depend upon the future
progress made by the insects and
existing weather conditions.
Some orchardists have kept their
orchards free from worms. In these
the application of the ten-day spray
v ill be less essential ow ing to the
fact that scab infection is so slight.
The recommendations, however,
for the control of scab are problem
atical. To be entirely safe and re
duce the possibilities of scab infec
Hon to practically nothing, Hie lime
sulphur should be applied at this
time. Scab infections are very rare
at the present time and we are np
parently in no great need for an ap
plication of a fungicide unless these
infections appear on the foliage. In
fections which occurred in the last
rain have not had time to appear,
v ith the result that other conditions
may take place in the near future
Where the extra worm spray or a de
layed ten-day spray is considered nut
necessary by the grower, the follow
ing suggestion is offered: Delay the
application and await results. If
Infection should appear in the fol
lage, spray at once. This will de
mand close watch in the orchard.
Keep in touch with the experiment
station for developments. Growers
should remember that they should
be ready to spray and do it in a hur
ry if unfavorable conditions arise
This recommendation seems ndvis
able due to the very Insignificaant
amount of scab present at this writ
ing.
In the many orchards where the
two worm sprays should be used the
following formula is suggestetd for
the first: Lime-sulphur 1-iiO, arsenate
of lead (powder) 2-lno, paste 4 100.
This should be on the trees by the
third of June.
Generally speaking, the green and
woolly aphis has not. become injur
ions. Where they occur in luimuei,..
add tobacco to the spray at the rate
of 1-1200.
Flea Beettle in the Gardn.
A small beetle known as the flea
beetle is now working on tomatoes,
potatoes and egg plants. These uvn
be controlled by spraying with Bor
deaux mixture 5-5-50 (five pounds of
lime, five pounds of btuestnne and 50
gallons of water) plus arsenate of
lead at the rate of two pounds (pow
t'.er) to 50 gallons of water. It is
necessary to spray the upper and un
der surfaces of the leaves of the
plants. If cold weather continues, it
will be necessary to spray once a
week for at least three or four
weeks to keep the Insects away,
