HYGIENE SOCIETY
MAKES PROGRESS

The State Hygiene Society, vhiel
was organized as local Portland asso
citation in 1911, has made great progres.
and has created interest throughout
the state since that date.
The society owes its origin and con.
tinued existence l9il-l2 to the gener.
osity Of large and small giyers. these
benefactions ran from smaller amounts
to as much as $500 in a single pledge.
The first years budget showed sub.
scriptions 10 the amount Of S5, ,963. so
the second years S6.9l250. Member.
ship fees for the first year totaled
$4s9.S5; for the second 1853.
In 1918, the state legislature appro-
priated $40, 600 year for two years 10
aid the society in its campaign of edu-
cation. While $500 a year was and
is needed to carry on the woIk
throughout the state with the same
degree Of efficiency as has been reached
in the city Of Portland. it is hoped that
the present appropriation, together
with private subscriptions, will enable
the society to do effective work. The
people Of the state are TO be congratu-
lated that their Legislature has appreci.
ated the importance Of this educational
work.
The influence of the society's work
in Portland has been felt all over the
state, but the support now being given
by the legislature entails the obliga-
ton of statewide work and enables the
society TO undertake il.
Protiting by experience in the city of
Portland. for the present methods used
are about as follows:
In the principal cities of the state
are being organized local promotion
committees. An executive committee
of three persons is recommended and
elected as members Of the state execu.
tive committee, and acts as a local
sub b-committee, responsible for the
work OF its locality. All memberships
are in the state society.
Ii is now organized In the following
cities:
Astoria. Albany, Corvallis, Eugene.

EMMETT GETS MAIN
LINE RATE ON FRUIT
Means a Saving to Growers of
From S26 to S2S on
Every Car.

The officials of the Emmett Fruit
Growers Union this week received
notice from the North Pacific Distri-
butors Association that the fight the
Association had waged for sometime
to place the Emmett fruit district
upon the same footing as regard rail-
road rates as is enjoyed by main line
towns had been won and that the re-
dueed rates would go into effect July
21. This means a saving of 10 cents
ia hundred pounds, or from S26 to S28
per car, to the fruit growers of this
section.
While the official notice states that
the reduction in rates applies to ship
ments from Emmett to Nampa over
the Idaho Northern, it is understood
that the same rates will apply to ship
ments over the Payette Valley road
also.
This rate, however, does not apply
to shipments in Idaho, only to inter-
state business.
Following so closely upon like re-
duction of rates upon wool shipments
out of Emmett, the fruit rate presages
general reduction upon the shipment
of all commodities in and out of En-
NETT and Payette Valley railroad
points.
The reduction in the rates on wool
and fruit is distinct victory for or
ganization. The wool rate was secur-
ed through the efforts of the Wool
Growers Association and the fruit
rate through the North Pacific Distri-
butors.

TWILIGHT HONORS GO.
TO KEIThS
Defeat Moose in Close and Ex-
citing Game and Cinch
the Pennant.

With Oscar Lingren pitching the
game of his life backed by timely hit
ting, the Keith's defeated the Moose
Friday in what proved to be the de-
Gliding game of the Twilight League
season, and won The Index trophy,
a silver loving cup, cash prize of
$25 in cash subscribed by the business
men and the championship of the 1914
season. The score was 3 to 2.
1t was real ball game, and was at
tended by intense excitement and the
most vociferous support of the parts
ans of each team. In only two inn
ings did either side score, the Moose
counting first in the fifth with two and
the Keiths made it one better by scor-
ing three in the sixth. 1t was no
discredit to Guy Reynolds, the plucky
twirler for the Moose, that the game
was lost. He pitched splendid game.
In effectiveness ne fell but little below
the brilliant work of young Lingren.
The big Swede, however, had strong
er string of hitters to go up against
He struck out 8; Reynolds 7. In hits,
honors were pretty nearly even, each
getting four. The Keiths are credited
with two doubles and two singles,
and the Moose with one double and
three single. The Keiths pulled off two
pretty double plays, one in the fourth
and the other in the sixth.
The Moose started the run getting
in the fifth. Munday struck out
Knowles hit safely, stole second, was
sacrificed to third by Burton, who
went out Mcmillan to Polly. McMil-
Ian went to first on errors, Knowles
scored Guy Reynolds forced Mac to
second and both were safe on error
by Fels, and Mac scored on Clyde

thrown out at first.

FOR BETTERMENT OF
WOOL INDUSTRY
Salt Lake Banker Advocates the
Australian System of Shear
and Breeding.

In the monthly trade and finance
circular for the current month sent
out by the National Copper bank OF
Salt Lake City, the following results
of the Investigations of ]. E. Cosgriff,
president of the Continental bank of
that city as to the betterment of the
wool industry is given:
Throughout the clamor against the
reduction in the wool tariffs, Mr. Cos
griff, seeing that the change was in
evitable, devoted himself to a study
of ways and means by which the
American wool grower might hold his
own. He knew, for instance, that
Australian woods ranked higher than
ours in quality and that, though
sharply Disseminated against by the
old tariff regulations, they had won
a firm hold on certain trade of the
better sort. 1t was obvious that they
would have still greater success under
free trade, and that all other foreign
wools, whether good or Indifferent,
would be stronger competitor than
ever they had been before. Suprem-
acy is now purely a question of pro-
duction cost, freight and quality.
"Why should Australian woods rank
higher than ours? Was it something
inherent or was it the result of SUI
perior methods? Mr.. Cosgriff deter
mined to find out. He found that it
was partly in the breeding of the
sheep, and partly in their handling,
but that most of the difference was
due to shearing pen methods. The
keep the pens clean, bale
the feeces instead of tying them, cut
off the inferior parts of each fleece
and bale those separately, and they
rigidly classify the whole output. They
are thus able to get proper price for
the prime portion of the fleece, while
under our system, the coarser wool
|ecomes so intermixed with the finer
hat we are compelled to sell the
whole fleece at the price of its coars-
st portion He found also that by
! he use of trained shearing crews
brought in from Australia, the system
kould easily be established here in its
perfected form during the course of
|ingle season. He accordingly brought
In expert from Australia at his own
Expense, and that expert is informing
wool growers as to the methods and
benefits of the system.
at is estimated that the use of the
system will so increase
The quality of the clip and lessen
freight charges as to add several cents

sold, and will enable intermountain
vools to meet any competition what

CRESCENT CLUB MEETING
Interesting and Instructive Discussion
of Home Topics.


The Crescent Club met last Friday
afternon with Mrs. Geo. P. Hall and
Mrs. Jesse Meyer at Mrs. Halls home
with 10 club members present and
four visitors. The roll call was re-
sponded to with patriotic quotations.
Current events were interesting
and instructive.
Mrs. S. P. Bakers paper on making
the home attractive and teaching and
encouraging the love of home in chill
dren was very much enjoyed by all
present.
Mrs. Jos. Helfert read very in
structive paper on window decoration,
The idea expressed in this paper was
not to shut out the view, but that not
only the window was to be studied,
but the woodwork and the view from
the window.
Mrs. Warden demonstrated the
making of jellies out of fruit, such as
strawberries and cherries, which are
difficult to get clear, firm jelly out
of. The demonstration was very in
structive.
A pleasant half hour was spent in
visiting, during which time dainty re-
freshments were served.
The Club will meet with Mrs. Ira
Flagler and Mrs. S. P. Baker, at
Mrs. Flagler's home, on Friday, July
10.
