recommended by an officer of the
Bureau or forestry, VINO was sent
down to Fort Washington to act in
consultation with board of Army
officers of which the undersigned
was president, which was directed
to study the malarial situation and
advise the means of remedying it.
The purchase of herd of goats has
been accordingly recommended by
this Office, but if it is true that they
are killed by eating poison ivy it
will be hardly necessary to make the
purchase"
In answer A. M. Harrington, Act
ing Chief Of Bureau, says: Reply
ing to your letter Of Jan. 2, you are
advised that sheep and goats can
consume large amounts of poison ivy
without suffering any harm in conse-
quence. Although this Office has no
record of the particular case to
which the clipping forwarded by you
refers, it occasionally happens that
goats, used for clearing brush land,
become poisoned in the early spring
months by eating the young buds
and sprigs of mountain laurel.
Small quantities of leaves of this
plant may be eaten without i'll eff
fects by goats, and it is only when
driven by hunger to the consump-
ton of large amounts of them that
any harmful results will follow. In
regions in which laurel is plentiful
stock owners prevent losses among
their f1ocks by keeping them out of
the pasture lots in which the plant
abounds until other kinds of plant
food have advanced enough to pro-
vide the needed forage. Supplying
other food in addition to the pastur-
age until sufficient food for the flock
has grown in the fields will usually
prevent losses from laurel poisoning,
hut not always, as the tender green
heritage is too tempting in con-
trast, and the animals overeat.
Should the area which you propose
to clear by the use of goats sustain
dense growth of mountain laurel
care as outlined above would be
necessary to prevent losses among

through the Federal Council of the

good.

BRIBE.

Los Angeles, Cal, Feb. 5,-The
strain of telling under oath of her

for Mrs. Dora Balm, and the aged wo-
man tainted on the witness stand yes

Of Clarence s. Darrow on a charge of
bribing Robert f. Balm, Juror in the
Mcnamara case.
Hating and brokenly, Mrs Balm told
CT what she believed her husband S
shame. Many times she was unable
to proceed, but finally revived under
the kindly promptings of the attor-
neys, she gripped herself and the
story Of The alleged bribry poured out
interspersed by occasional quick sobs
or gasps for breath.
"He called Franklin a bad name
when | told him tina. Franklin wanted
me to coax him to take a bribe,' Mrs
Balm falJered, "and 1t was only after
! had pointed out to him his age and
our need of funds, and put my arms
around him and asked him to take the

Mrs. Eain took the stand when court
resumed today Clad in a soft gray
gown and bonnet, she was helped t0

The Factory T. =
Will Soon be
Completed
MERWIN BROTHERS. CASKET FAC.
TORY ON TRADE AND HIGH
WILL SOON BE OPERATING
WITH 4 GO0DLY PAY ROLL.

There is under construction at the
northwest corner of High and Trade
streets a two-story building which
will soon be occupied by one Of Sa-
lem's most promising manufacturing
firms, the Great Northwestern Casket
company, and the proprietors Of this
establishment stated yesterday that
when their business is permanently To-
Gated, they intended to enlarge it to
the extent that large pay roll will
be required. Hence the latest and
most valuable asset to the interests Of
the Capital City is assured within
comparatively short time.
The new capital now stirring things
in Salem was brought here by G, e.
and II. X. Merwin from st. Joseph,
Mo-, and two livelier young business
men could not have been found They
mean business, and have every means
at hand to enter into the manufac.
turing industry.
Real Manufacturing Plant,
Frank Derby, the well-known real
estate man and capitalist of Salem, is
behind the construction of the new
building. Mr. Derby stated yesterday
that the cost of the structure will be
10000. The building site is the valu-
able property on the corner of High
and Trade streets, and is an ideal fac.
tory location, in view Of the fact
that the Southern Pacific switch from
the main line to the business district
Of Salem runs along the south side Of
the property while the Oregon electric
trains, on the main line, operate di-
rectly in front Of the building
The new building now has II men
working on It, and it is the intention
Of Mr., Derby to have 1t completed for
occupancy by the first of next month.
II will be two stories, with full base
ment constructed Of conrete, and the
entire floor space will amount TO H.
7GO feet. The two upper stories will
be composed on the outside of galvan.
iHed iron, and the entire building will
not only be slightly but very service
able one for factory purposes. The
ground space covered by the structure
is S0x7i feet.
The Messrs, Merwin have leased the
building for five years, and declare
they will go right after the business,
just as soon as they can remove
their plant from its present quarters
In the building next to the Hotel Ma
rion.
The Salem Board Of Trade has been
boosting the newcomers along, but
now the enterprising young men have
taken the bits in their teeth, so to
speak, and will push their business to
the limit The Southern Pacific COM
pany has come to realize the bright
future for the new business and has
planked its track and is planning to
erect a platform to the very doors Of
the new building. Every encourage
ment has been shown the casket maxi
ers, and Salem will soon have cause to
not only thank them for establishing
an Industry here but appreciate the
enterprise on the part of Mr.. Derby
In providing location for the fac
tory.
