Salem, April 1.-The state sheep
commission is preparing to wage war
against scab, the infectious disease
which has played havoc with the
sheep industry, and when 1t Is rec
ognized that oregon has more than
900. 900 sheep east of the Cascaiss
and more than 276.000 in the coun-
ties comprised in the first district, 1t
is evident that the commission has
plenty of work to do in that direc-
tion.
The inspection in the vallew will
be carried on under federal super
vision by the county inspectors. The
II spection while rigid is not intendel
TO work hardship on any sheep
raiser.
It will be the duty of each inspec-
tor to keep record of the number
of sheep inspected, the name of the
owner. the locality in which the H.
spection took place and the date of
the inspection and to report to the
county court. Thus an accurate CEN
sus of the sheep population can be
obtained and a check kept on the
work done by tie inspectors
In the first district, which includes
the Willamette counties, no inspec-
ton will be made for less than 25

vats used in other states are fifteen

form to the government measure

The Elder Sister.

There is no character in the
home circle more useful and
beautiful than a devoted
elder sister who stands side
by side with the toiling
mother, Tightening all her
cares and burdens. How
beautiful the household ma
chinery moves on with such
efficient help! Now she pre-
sides at the table in her
mothers absence, always so
neatly attired that it is with,
pride the father introduces
her to his guestas ''our oldest
daughter. y Now she takes a
little troop into the garden
with her and amuses them, so
mother may not be disturbed
in her work or her rest. Now
she helps the boys with their
hard lessons or reads fathers
paper aloud to rest his tired
eyes. If mother can run
away for a few days. recrea-
ton she leaves home without
any anxiety, for Mary will
guide her house wisely and
happily in her absence. But
in the sick room her presence
is an especial blessing. Her
hand is next to mothers own
in gentleness and skill. Her
sweet music can charm any
pain, and brighten the wear
lest of hours, There are
elder sisters whose presence
is net such a blessing in the
home. Their own selfish
ends and aims are the main
pursuits in life, and anything
that stands in the way of
these is regarded with great
Impotence. Such daughters
are no comfort to a mothers
heart. Which kind of an
elder sister are you in the
household?

Be Kind In Little Things.

The sunshine of life is made
up of very little beams that
are bright all the time. In
the nursery, on the play
ground and in the school
room, there is room all the
time for little acts of kind
ness that cost nothing but
are worth more than gold and
silver. TO give up some
thing when giving up will
prevent unhappiness; to yield
when persisting will chafe
and fret others; to go a little
way around rather than come
against another; to take an i'll
word or a cross look rather
than to resent it; these are
the ways in which clouds and
storms are kept off and a
pleasant, smiling sunshine
secured even in a humble
home, among very poor peo-
pie, as well as in families in
higher station. Much that
we term the miseries of life
would be avoided by adopting
this rule of conduct.
