Why does Great Britain buy
Its oatmeal Of us?

Certainly it seems like carrying
Goals to Newcastle to speak of export
ing o.Smeal TO Scotland and yet, every
year the Quaker Oats Company sends
hundreds Of thousands OF cases of
Quaker Oats to Great Britain and
Europe.
The reason Is simple; while the
English and Scotch have for centuries
eaten oatmeal in quantities and with
regularity that has made them the
most rugged physically, and active
mentally OF all people, the American
has been eating oatmeal and trying all
the time to improve the methods Of
manufacture 50 that he might get that
desirable foreign trade.
How well he has succeeded would
be seen at glance at the export re-
ports on Quaker Oats This brand Is
without rival; is packed in regular
loo packages, and in Theoretically seal
ed tins for hot climates. 81

Proposed Amendments

There are six amendments TO the
constitution to be voted on at the
general election in November as
follows:
ITO make the state auditor the fifth
member of the state land board. The
board would then be composed of the
governor, secretary of state, attorney
general, superintendent of public in.
struction and state auditor"
Providing for the calling in of an
additional justice for the supreme
court and authorizing two chief jus.
tees to agree on calling onto the
bench judge of the district court"
"Authorizlng the state legislature to
create bond issue or appropriate a
sufficient fund to complete the state
capitol building and to furnish it
throughout"
"Authorizing county assessors to
employ the necessary clerical assist
ance and appoint deputies when so
empowered by the board of county
commissioners.
"Providing for sheriffs to succeed
themselves"
"Providing tor county assessors to
succeed themselves
On the first amendment it is con
tended that the present membership
is too small to give the proper re-
presentation and that membership
of five would prevent ties as is the
case sometimes with the present mem
bership of tour; the State Auditor is
in close touch with all State depart
ments as he audits the accounts, fol
which reason it is argued that making
him member of the Board would be
OF great value.
The second, third and fourth is
sues explain themselves.
The fifth and sixth amendments
that sheriffs and assessors may sue
coed themselves, looks to be a very
sensible amendment as we never
knew of any valid reason why they
should not be allowed to do so, the
same as other officers.

FISHING Still GOOD
IN MANY STREAMS
Truckee Disappoinfs Rod Weld
ers, but Catches Are Fine at
Other Anglers Resorts
Bv FRANK o'DoNNELL

Nearby and distant fishing resorts re-
ceived due share of attention from the
angling fraternity during the week,
and although results in some places
were not all that could be wished, con-
ditions generally were satisfactory.
The Truckee disappointed it's devotees,
but there was good trout fishing at
other points and the black bass con-
tinued to furnish good sport.
When Monday is holiday in summer
time, the prospect of spending at least
two days whipping a good stream is
an aIluring one. Last Monday was no
exception to the rule, even the affair
at Reno failing to perceptibly thin the
ranks of rod wielders at resorts where
the going was known to be good.
THE upper Sacramento seemed to be
most favored rainbow stream last week.
The guests at the resorts along the
river had little trouble Turing the fish
from their native element with artifi-
ciaI flies, according to report. and it
was also reported that limit strings
were still being taken.
There was quite an exodus of week
enders to Sims, Caste1la, Castle Crag
and other resorts in the upper Sacra-
mcntO region AluoHS THE iOCdI dn = icTS

leave for Shasta springs.
The water In the TrucEee was two
feet higher early in the week than it
was two weeks ago. according to Floyd
Judah. who was there. Not only was
fishing poor on account of the high
water. but a terrific windstorm ragged
nearly. all day Sunday and anglers
were obliged to quit altogether at

FOUR ATTEMPTS AT
SUICIDE UNAVAILING
Tries Starving, Drowning, Cut-
ting and Hammering
TSeecidl Di,potch to The Call

UKIAH, July 9.-Intent upon commit
ting suicide. NJ. Staffani of Northwest
ern, made four unsuccessful attempts
during the last few days.
First he tried to starve himself and
went to the mountains where he
roamed the hills for two days, then
returned to the railroad camp. where
he had been employed. and obtained
something to eat. Then he went to ,t
nearby creek where he laid down in the
water, face down. but as he began TO
strangle he would raise his head. Next
he secured a claw hammer and COM
menced hammeFing his head. but as the
blood began to flow he ceased. In the
fourth and latest attempt he slashed
his throat several times, and as it bled
profusely he again became frightened
and ran to an officer telling him that
he must be insane and wanted TO be
committed to an asylum.
After the wounds had been stitched
he was brought to this city and later
taken TO the Mendocino state hospital.
1t developed that Staffani had escaped
from the hospital. and the authorities
have been searching for him for sew
eral months. as he was known to be a
hard character. having escaped the gall
lows on the insanity plea.
