SEPTIC TANK SITE.

When the municipal administrators
convene next Monday evening the
question of a site for the proposed
septic tank, for which the qualified
electors of Dallas are asked to give
sanction by voting $500 to the pur-
pose on June 10, will probably be
taken up and discussed with view
to definitely determining upon To-
cation. If the council expects the
people to authorize this greatly need
ed improvement to Dallas present
sanitary conditions it should afford
every opportunity to the voter to act
intelligently in casting his ballot, and
the first thing demanded is the loca-
ton of the tank and the cost of site.
The further outlay has been made
clear.
While, as has been stated by one
who speaks with knowledge, it is pos
sible for the city to delay the con-
struction of sewage disposal tank
temporarily, public health demands it
Immediately, and we should not pull
our purse-strings too tightly when
health is at stake. The State Board
of Health seems to think that depos-
iting sewage into the Rickreall river
is menace to the well-being of peo-
pie other than our own community
family, and this being the case a
continuation of our present mode of
procedure is unwarranted. At any
rate, the aldermanic body should put
the issue squarely before the voters,
and it may reasonably be expected
that it will do so at its session Mon
day night.

after their armies had been decimat-
ed, and the spectre of gaunt famine
had left its impress upon its wasted
acres. With resignation it was forced
to accept the result of the conflict,
and today its indomitable sons and
daughters join in treasuling the mem
ory of the heroic dead. Yet, the
Southern heart, palpitating with its
affection for the brave men who gave
their lives, still beats with belief in
the Immortality Of their cause, while
with the Northerner all is forgiven,
though not forgotten
The Union is preserved, though not
without awful cost, and tomorrow a
patriotic, country loving citizenship
will express its appreciation, love and
reverence for those dead heroes to
whom it owes debt of gratitude, not
alone in speech and song, but by the
beautiful custom of strewing the
choicest bloom of springtime and by
floating the stars and stripes they loved
so well on the silent and placid bosom
of the tomb. Let us of Dallas per-
form the sacred duty of the hour. Let
us certify to present and to coming
generations that we, as a people, have
not forgotten the cost of a free and
undivided republic. Hoary veterans,
with uncovered heads and tear dimmed
eyes, will tomorrow gather around the
sacred remains of their comrades in
arms and garland the passionless
with fragrant flowers, realiz-
ing that ere many years the solemn
and sacred duty must devolve upon
others. They have promised that the
supreme sacrifices of their comrades
shall never be forgotten; that their
shall be kept alive, and this
pledge they will keep.

THE SMALL TRACT.

Permanent success in the William
cite valley is to be attained in fullest
measure when fruitgrowing is appor-
toned among small land owners
Large orchards have been made to paw
big profit in California, and also in
the Northwest, but their management
is fraught with constant difficulties.
Small tracts owned by individual fam
lies, on which the members perform
all, or nearly all, of the labor, meet
every requirement except in picking
and packing times, and adjacent towns
and farms are able to spare enough
of the class of labor required for this
service to carry through the annual
emergency.
The time will come when Oregon
families will be living on ten and
and earning excursion on a far great
er scale than hoppicking now war
rants. Tins, orchard labor could be
made a domestic consideration. with
great local profit, certainty of service

OUR MEAT SUPPLY.

Uncle Sam is evidently determined
to do his part to help increase the
meat supply of this nation. The en-
couraging news is being spread broad
east that the federal government is
permitting public lands, and especial
ly the public forests, to be used in
such way as will increase the num-
Der of food animals. The decrease in
the number of animals available for
food in recent years, while the meat
eating population has been steadily
growing, has been largely responsible
for the constant higher trend of meat
prices. No other single increase in
the cost of living has been the source
of so much complaint.
Figures showing the number of live
stock for which the secretary of agri-
culture has authorized grazing per-
mits, for the ranges on the 100 nation
al forests, during the year 1914, have
just been made public. Nearly H.
000,00 animals can be grazed, includ-
ing nearly 100000 head of cattle and
horses, 100000 head of sheep and
goats, and about $4,000 hogs. This
means an increase for the current year
of about $4,000 cattle and horses, and
347 900 sheep and goats, although the
gross area of the national forest at
the beginning of 1914 was almost
100000 acres less than at the be-
ginning of 1913. During 1913. ac-
cording to reports recently compiled,
more than $4,000 stockmen paid the
government for grazing permits on
the national domain.
By this system of encouraging graz
ing on public lands there it little ques-
ton an efficient aid will be given to
stockmen and others directly interest
ed in producing and marketing ami
mails raised for meat purposes. More
over, the present offer of range feed
on public lands is apparently oppor-
tune, for not only is there a tendency
to increase native stock, in view of
present high prices, but the unsettled
conditions in Mexico are causing large
numbers of cattle to be sent from that
country to the United States, move
ment that finds further encouragement
in the fact that the tariff on .such i'm
portations has been removed. This
combination of circumstances should
operate to speedily increase the num-
ber of meat animals in this country,
and thereby bring the supply back to
a point where there will be less con-
Germ over a possible shortage. And
the government is to be commended
for using its influence to bring this
about.

The Wool Market.

Commenting on the wool situation
the Commercial Bulletin says
"There has been a fair amount of
business put through in the local mar
ket during the week and some mills
have shown a disposition to take on
more wool even at the high prices.
but the few new woods do not seem
to be moving from the lofts quite so
quickly as they have done up to the
present writing. Possibly this is due
to slightly heavier receipts, but what
ever the cause the wool is moving with
less alacrity. Prices here have been
firmly maintained on the new high
level, however, and there has been no
anxiety shown to sell wool, so that
the market can be characterized as
nothing short of "strong." "Prices
in the country have shown a tendency
this week to exceed even the basis of
the market quotations here and it is
not too much to say that there will
have to be further advanc in the con-
suming centers before a profit can be
seen on today's buying basis in some
sections"

DRAFTING FREAK LAW.

A bill is being drafted for the initi-
ative in the alleged interest of Sab
bath keeping, which will add enor-
mously to the expense of hotels, res
taurants, and all business that must
be operated seven days in the week.
The bill is in charge of a committee
of the federal council Of churches
and the Federation of labor, and the
text of the bill is as follows:
Section l. 1t is declared to be the
public policy of the state of Oregon
that each and every person of either
sex employed for wages as herein
after specified, shall be allowed per-
iod of rest of at least one day of "a
consecutive hours, in each and every
calendar week, to permit said person
to improve his or her, physical, men
tai, and moral condition, to the end
that the general welfare may be pro-
noted and the general health, intelli-
gence, uprightness and usefulness of
citizens increased.
Section 2. Every employer of per-
sons of either sex for wages, whether
such employer be an individual, part
nership or corporation, engaged in
carrying ON in this state manufactur-
ing, mercantile, or public utility bus
mess, or any other business conducted
for profit shall allow each person, ex-
cept those exempted in section here
of, employed in such manufacturing,
mercantile, or public utility business
or any other business conducted for
profit, at least one day consisting of
"a consecutive hours of rest in each
and every calendar week.
Section 3. This act shall not apply
to janitors, watchmen, or employees
whose duties include no work in ex-
cess of two consecutive hours of labor
on the day allotted for their rest
period.
The proposed bill goes on to state
that the employer shall keep time
book, with the names of every en-
ploye in it and the hours worked, for
the inspection of the labor commits
sioner, and provides penalty for the
violation of the act.

SPRING FEVER.

About this time of the year a good
many persons fall victims to that old
complaint which commonly is termed
"spring fever" Of course there is
no real fever about it, but it "gets "
a person just the same. 1t is a feel
ing of combined languor, lassitude and
restlessness, which comes with the
first warm days of spring and makes
one want to drop the routine of daily
work and get out in the open to COM
mune with nature and enjoy season
of rest and peaceful quiet. The call
of the wild birds, the nodding flowers
and swaying foliage, every ripple of
the waters and even the sweet fra
GRANGE of each passing breeze adds a
fresh invitation to yield to this i'm
pulse. And if these signs of spring
are visible only in fancy and imagina-
ton the effect is the same, for every
one intuitively knows this "call, "
which has gone to the hearts of men
from time immemorial.
Years ago, when business and in
dustry was less highly organized and
specialized, men listened to the spring
time call of outdoor life more freely.
The spirit of the season would seize
hold of a merchant and his clerks, or
room full of mechanics. They
would lock up and go fishing or pic
nicking for day. Probably their pro-
duct at the end of the year was Just
as large as if they had stayed in and
yawned the afternoon away. Modern
life is more intricate and more exact
ing. Not every one-in fact but, few
can yield to the call of the woods
and streams for holiday of idleness.
With many their daily task is fitted
and dovetailed to that of their neigh
bors. For one to quit is to cause con-
fusion and perhaps check the smooth
running of the entire system.
We are told that this habit of regu-
lar labor, in the face of all counter
attractions, has disciplinary value. 1t
creates an industrial machine whose
product surpasses the old-time records
and steadily grows larger. But it ex-
cludes many natural enjoyments and
wholesome primitive sports, which
constitute the only "sure cure" for
a genuine case of spring fever.
