NATION BUYING UP FORESTS
Reservation Commission Approves
Ohio Watershed Purchases.

Washington, D. C.-The first forest
upon the watershed of the Ohio river
to be acquired for the government was
approved for purchase by the National
Forest Reservation commission. 1t is
included in what is known as the Mo-
nongahela area, at the head of the
Monongahela river, and embraces two
tracts aggregating 20,567 acres, for
which an average price of $1,000 an
acre is to be paid.
Four areas in all were approved,
the total acreage being $4,000, the
largest purchase ever passed upon by
the commission at one time. Besides
the Monongahela, the commission
acted favorably upon the White Top
area, 1O,437 acres, located near the
Junction of Virginia, North Carolina
and Tennessee, at an average price OF
SIS. 10 an acre; the Natural Bridge
area, near the famous Virginia natural
bridge, 1920 acres, at 1854, and the
Shenandoah area, 70, AGA acres, at the
extreme headwaters of the James and
Shenandoah rivers, at $3.01.

Fruit Growers Must Organize
Says Professor C. l. Lewis

Il want to emphasize the need of
organization for the Willamette Val
ley, +" said Prof. G. I. Lewis Of the di-
vision of horticulture of the Oregon
Agricultural college in his addresses
to the State Horticultural society at
Corvallis and Eugene.
"All the various centers, such as
Corvallis, Eugene, Dallas, etc., should
have strong fruit growers organiza-
tions and should have canneries or
means of handling other by-products.
These different organizations should
get together at least once year and
meet at some central point, such as
Portland. The State Horticultural So
ciety should be splendid medium for
getting these organizations together
where we can discuss the problems
that confront us, and give each other
the benefit of our experience.
Il am hoping that every organize
ton in the Willamette valley will be-
come affiliated with the society and
thus reap the benefits Of such coopera-
tion.''

HOLMES TESTS ALASKA COAL
Director of Federal Bureau of
Mines Goes to Alaska.

Washington, D. Cdr. Joseph A.
Holmes, director of the Federal bu-
reau of mines, left Wednesday for
Seattle, WASH, to take personal
charge of the expedition which is to
sail from that city from Alaska to get
100 tons of coal from the Matanuska
fields to be tested by the navy.
The trip will be made on the steam
er Admiral Sampson with 80 men,
horses and mining equipment under
the direct charge of George w. Evans
and John T. Ryan, mining engineers.
Arriving at Knik, in the South Central
part of Alaska, the party will proceed
by pack train so miles to Chickaloon
in the vicinity of the coal field. 1t is
expected that the desired quantity of
coal will be obtained by fall. 1t will
be taken over the ice next winter to
tidewater.
Eight hundred tons of coal taken
from the Bering river coal field year
ago is now at Saltwater and will be
taken from the Bering river within
the next two months. This coal also
will be tested on the Maryland.

THREE ARE GUILTY OF ARSON
Members of Chicago carson Trust
Promptly Convicted.

Chicago Edward and Paul Covitz,
former wooden merchants, and Joseph
Clarke, public fire insurance adjust
er, were found guilty of arson by a
jury which returned verdict in the
Criminal court Monday.
A motion for new trial will be
made by attorneys for the defense and
a date for arguments will be set.
The agreement of the jury came as
a surprise. Both counsel for the state
and defense had expected disagree
ment because the jurors had deliberat-
ed 20 hours and Is minutes when the
verdict was reached. Two jurors, it
was said, held out from the beginning
to acquit Clarke.
The defendants were in court when
the verdict was read. The Covitz
brothers almost collapsed, but Clarke
appeared unconcerned. The former
said their nationality was the cause
of the conviction. The convicted men
were not taken into custody. The
brothers are under $40, 900 bonds and
their co-defendant on $4,000 bonds,
and the surety probably will be allow
ed to stand until the motion for a new
trial is disposed of.
The convicted men were the first OF
46 alleged members of the carson
trust" recently indicted, to be tried.

OJEDA's sLOWNEss Is OFFSET
Federals Make Up for Generals
Failure to Advance.

Mexico City-The failure of General
Ojeda to advance against the rebels in
Sonora, and the acquisition of various
towns, including Durango, capital of
the state of Durango, during the past
week, has been offset, according to the
government, by the recovery of few
places by the Federals and by the
work done towards re-opening the
railroads in the North.
Troops are supporting the workmen
and the National railway has been re-
paired within 20 miles of Saltillo and
north of Monterey to Villaldama, but
the activity of the rebels short dis
lance on either side indicates that the
road will be cut behind the troops be-
fore trains are operated.
The line from San Luis Potosi to
Tampico was cut in four places Mon
day. Rails were loosened at other
points and several trains were wreck
ed, one military train. Half the
railroads in the republic were out of
commission. Torreon especially is
suffering from scarcity of provisions.

Importance of Proper Care
of Teeth of Children

GA bad breath is an indication that
something is wrong. It may be from
dirty or decayed teeth, or from decay
ing food stuff in the intestinal tract, I"
says Mrs. Alice Marks Dolman, home
nursing and dietetics instructor at the
Oregon Agricultural college.
MANY people do not take care of a
child's first teeth because they think,
oh, he will lose these teeth, so what
is the use of having the tooth filled or
taken care Off Many do not stop to
think that the beginnings of the
second teeth are already started and
getting their nourishment and protec-
tion from the first little teeth, and if
tooth decays or is pulled before it
really is ready, the teeth above it
suffer. The jaw bone contracts and
does not leave enough room, so when
the permanent or second teeth do
come, they most often are crowded and
crooked.
ga child should early be taught that
it is even more necessary to keep the
mouth and teeth clean than it is to
keep the face Clean"

The police, however, had been ap-

men went to their aid, but were Sc

In the fighting the women were

atomical change in the minute struc-
ture OF the lung tissue that cannot be
replaced. The little partitions which
separate the air cells in the lung have
Oeen broken down and there is nothing
Wnlcn will cause these to be replaced.
Heaves may be palliated to GER
tam extent, however, by proper feed
ing and careful exercise, together
with long course Of arsenic acid.
You are correct in your assumption
That, In feeding, hay should be reduced
and grain increased. You should feed
about pound of hay for each 100
pounds of live weight Of the horse
daily. The reason for not feeding very
much hay lies in the fact that hay, be-
ing bulky, will overload the stomach
and press forward on the lungs and
cause more or less difficulty in breath
ing. The arsenic acid should be given
IN the form of Fowler's Solution, or.
every third day. This contains arsenic
and should be given with care.
In exercising the animal, watch
the breathing and if he seems to have
very much trouble with breathing, he
should either be stopped or allowed to
move with very slow gait. Six
months to years treatment along
this line will bring about temporary
recovery usually. The trouble will re-
turn. however, if the horse is put to
hard work and fed improperly"

Is Your Colt Properly Trained
for Fair Show Ring

Is QUIZ OOlt I IOpcIly 1I0AuCu 8
for Fair Show Ring:
In showing horses at county ant
state fairs and horse shows, especially
in showing colts, it is important thai
the animals be trained for the occa
sion, or they are unlikely to show
their work.
Zone Of the first things is to teach
the colt to behave himself and be
quiet, so that he will not get excited,
tear around and act up like naughty
child before company, when led into
crowd" said Prof. E. L. Potter, of the
animal husbandry department of the
Oregon Agricultural college, discuss
ing the subject. :.
"The next step is to teach the colt
to stand still when it is required" he
continued. "Then he must be taught
to stand in the proper position, with
his feet squarely under him, his front
feet side by side, and his hind feet
also side by side, his head up and his
ears forward.
"This will not only require training
it will mean that the owner or attend
ant will need to be constantly on the
lookout to see that the animal main
tains his position. One frequently
sees, at county fairs, men bringing in
good horses, and standing with their
hands in their pockets while allowing
the horses to stand down on one side
with their heads at one side, in no
way showing off their points as good
horses. Neither the owner or the
horse, in such case, shows at his best.
"The horse led into the show ring
should always have good bride, and
never should be brought in with just a
halter, as it is impossible to handle a
horse properly without bride.
"The colt should be taught to lead
properly to show his action to good ad-
vantage. He should learn to walk or
trot up by the side of the attendant
and pull forward on the lead rein, not
backward The attendant should hold
the horse with but one foot of rein be-
tween his hand and the bit.
"In trotting the colt to the bride it
should be taught to step up in good
shape, and pull forward on the rein
instead of backward. In teaching the
colt to trot for show, the attendant
must run beside the horses shoulder,
always keeping step with the horse.
An attendant who stumbles along in
his own gait cannot be expected to
make the horse travel at his best.
Attention to these points will
make world of difference in the ap-
pearance of the horse in the ring. 1t
will make poor horse look better and
will prevent good horse from appear
ing badly

CUPID MAY YET BE DRIVEN
Compulsory Marriage, Drawing by
Lot, Proposed in Trieste.

Trieste, Austria Hungary. - There
has been such a decline of recent years
in the marriage rate of Trieste that
one of the civic dignitaries suggests
the institution of system of compul-
sorry matrimony. 1t is proposed that
on given date in each year all spin
sters who have attained their 25th
year and bachelors who have attained
their 3Oth years should be required to
present themselves before the syndic
in whose jurisdiction they reside.
The names of those who on medical
examination prove to be thoroughly
sound would be sorted according to
sex, placed in separate urns, and then
drawn two at time.
The couples whose names are drawn
together would, at the conclusion OF
the draw, be united in marriage forth
with by the syndic.
