SOUTHERN PACIFIC IBeach Resorts Salem's Public Library Grows Steadily In Favor The Salem public library contains about two-thirds of a book to -every person living in the city, estimating the population, at 17,000, according to the report for the year 1915 recently issued by the librarian. Miss Anne D. Swezey. Several interesting facts regarding the library are shown by this annual report. One is the greater interest be ing taken as shown by the average daily attendance. In lit 1.1 it was 5S, in 1914 this average had grown to S4 and i last year it was 113. j Although the circulation of the libr ary for 191.1 was 53,S"2, yet from this ; total number only lo9 books wore miss ing and this was due possibly to the fact that a few books wore taken out j without being registered at the desk. I Kach year the circulation grows. ! Last year was 5til." larger than the year i before and 4."i99 larger than the ban ner year of the library, 191.1. A book hospital is part of the reg ular equipment. Hooks are not only rebound, but they are varnished, mend ed and brought into proper condition to he placed on the shelves. In fact, the hospital department of tho library cared for tho re-binding of 220 books and the mending of 1200. School children are becoming active patrons of the library. Last year the circulation from the city schools was 29,".j9, showing an increase of 3070 over the preceding year. Philosophical readers, or rather those interested in philosophy arc rather scarce in the citv and vicinitv. At- though 3872 adult books were issued in Januarj - , 1!1. -, only 48 were interested in philosophy. Readers of the useful arts are also scarce as onlv 89 books on theso subjects were issued last December, which was about the month ly average for the year. I Books on religious topics were not in demand to any very great extent. The greatest call for these books was in February ISMo, when 40 were cir culated. The desire for religious rend ing was lowest last July, when 13 books were called for. Readers of fiction find January the best month to read. In January of 1913 exactly 28,")2 books of fiction were circulated with February as the next mgnesi mourn iur mis mie o. m-i ature. Fiction falls the lowest '" average libraiies.

The ! whole leaf may be effected. In fact the whole twig niav be affected, but in other instances there may occur only a few separate patches of leaf surface af fected by the disease. By the middle of the spring the surfaces of these dis torted leaves become powdery with the spores or reproductive bodies of fun- Igus which are being discharge .1 at this time. These are carried bv air currents nil through the .-orchard and will even tually result in the infection of the next season. After discharging their spores, the leaves that are infected shrivel up and hang, deafl and brown, to the branches for a long time. Great injury is done where a large per cent age of the. leaves on a peach, tree are effected even though the tree may put out x new growth of leaves. The vi tality nf the tree and the quality and icld of the fruit are greatly reduced. r tirtlierniore, a tree n av die from the, effects .of the disease when it suffers two or more successive severe attacks.

Consequent ly delayed applications is often made very soon alter the bails begin to come out, but unfortuiialely in such cases a great part of the infection has already taken dace and practically no bene ficial results come from this delayed spraying. It has been found that while spravinir immediatelv before the buds bejin to I open does control the leaf curl, yet a! j spray given a week or more before will! I have the same effect. Recent experi-j ! meats by the Cornell university exper iment station, even, indicate that spray ling any time after December 1 will be ! effective if thoroughly done. Kxneri- incnts are now under way at the Ore gon experiment station to determine whether or not. this is true under Ore gon conditions as well. Whatever is the results of these tests may be, it is the experience of Oregon growers that 1 thorough aplijation given within two weeks before the opening of the buds will have successful results. We recom mend, therefore, at the present time, that the peach grower spray their trees ia February a week or two before the buds are expected to begin to come out. If the presence of San Jose scale is "'"iT"r"' lr" i""v-iii.iiur i io in. ii not. use Bordeaux mixture fi-fi-'.0.

The one which I have now in mind, Is the Ideal Girl for me. Perhaps to some she'll not appeal, Our tastes are unlike you see. III. Her eyes are blue and filled with tho't, Her hair is light and brown: Her teeth arc white, her lips are red, Her skin as soft as dawn. IV. She always feeds we hungry boys, On pies and cakes and fruit. Her motto is, to please the man. "Just feed and stuff the brute." V. Around her home she is alert, To keep things clean and bright. And when sho cooks n meal with pies, It always taste's iust right. VI. j She lies a smile for everyone, Who ha opens to come her way. 1 A companion to boys and girl-s alike, A friend to all each day. VII. 'Her morals are high, her tho't-s are I pure, For she is a girl of prayer, And everyone she does inspire, ! She influences unaware. ! . VIII. I Her faith and works are in her God, In church -lie does her part; j Her talent everyone admires, i For music is her art. IX. She never dances or play the cards, Winch lead one from the church, And modesty she ne'er forgets, From truth she never shirks. X. There is so much 1 'd like to say About this Meal Girl, That 1 believe that 1 could keep On writing forever more. XI. But I will close with just one word, A prayer for my Ideal Girl, May God in heaven keep her pure, From the stains of the outside world. Frank Y. Zinn. FIVE KILLED IN FIRE New York. Feb.
