Must Resist Imitation

To obtain that pTe-eninence in in
ternational finance. however, MIR.
Harding warned his hearers that the
United States must resist any tenden-
cy toward imitation and a wild tempo
rary boom. such as history has shown
frequently follows the conclusion Of
great wars. He declared that the ma
ton now was in commanding posi-
ton as the only great world power not
involved in war, and pointed to the
faet that the trade balance has been
iE favor of the United States to the
amount of s7le, oeo, COO for the last nine
monthSf This balance, he predicted,
might reach $1,000, zoe 900 by the end
of 1915.
We should not forget" said Mr..
Harding, that although we have
passed through no pronounced boom
period since 1897, there IS strong ten
dency today towards imitation in this
country as well as in Europe, where
imitation is necessary result Of war
financing.
Peace adjustments
Restoration Of peace will necessarily
bring about many readJustments. De-
mand for war material will cease and
in its place will spring up a demand
for the commodities of ordinary trade
and particularly for those materials
used in constructive work and repairs.
Great Britain, Germany and France
will use every effort to recover lost trade
and will endeavor to avail themselves of
American markets; our margin of exports
over imports will shrink, and as war
debts are permanently funded, securities
will doubtless be sold by citizens of
countries lately at war to enable them
to subscribe to their national loans. The
volume of these sales will be governed
partly by security prices and by trade
balances and the effect upon our money
market will depend upon the provision
we have made in advance to offset or
TO finance these purchases.
BE Conservative
While we now have in operation a
sound currency and banking system. we
must not permit ourselves to be l,,,,ai

MAY % AND 20, DATES OF
COMMONWEALTH SESSIONS
Disposal of Revenues From National
Forests Will Be One of the Half
Dozen Big Topics.

May 2S and 20 are the dates chos-
en- for the seventh annual common
wealth conference of the state of Ore
gon, which will be held in the Uni
varsity of Oregon buildings.
One branch of the conference will
consider ideas for returning to the
state profits made by the national
government from holdings within the
state. Franklin K. Lane, secretary
/ of the interior, will be asked to take
part.
Another conference session will
consider a plan for classification of
land in Oregon according to quality.
AT present the investor is afraid of
buying a gold brick: listed lands
would materially strengthen his CON
fdence," says F. G. Young, professor
of economics in the University of
Oregon.
A step is to be taken at the CON
ference toward amalgamating all the
good roads association movements in
Oregon.
A reorganization of the efficiency
and economy movements in the state
will be attempted.
Another conference topic will be
city planning: how to interest the
women and the civic bodies of the
state. A session for women will be
held on the topic.
A plan for more scientific credit
will be discussed.

Mr.. FLY WILL MEET HIS
WATERLOO IN BORAX

The specialists Of the Department
of Agriculture at Washington, D. c.,
have discovered that a small amount
of ordinary borax sprinkled daily on
manure will effectively prevent the
breeding of the typhoid or house fly.
Similarly, the same substance ap-
piled to garbage, refuse, open toilets.
damp floors and crevices in stables,
cellars or market, will prevent fly eggs
from Matching. BoraX will not kill
the adult fly nor prevent it from lay
ing eggs, but its thorough use will
prevent any further breeding.
The details of the experiments with
boraX and other larvacides will be
found in U. S. Department of Agri-
culture Bulletin No. lis. To pre-
vent injury to crops from borax
treated manure, the Department
offers certain suggestions to public
officials. To quote in part:
"While it can be safely stated that
no injurious action has followed the
| application of manure treated with
borax at the rate of .62 pound for s
bushels or ever larger amounts in the
case of some plants, nevertheless Dor
ax-treated manur has not been
studied in connection with the
growth of all crops, nor has its cul-
minative effect been determined. 1t
is therefore recommended that not
more than Is tons of the boraX-
treated manure should be applied
per acre to the field
The report also says that care
should be taken on feeding garbage
treated with boraX to hogs, especial
" when the animals ore being fatten-
ed for market. Borax in large guam
titles, while not very poisonous, pro-
duces gastric disturbances.
Borax can be used in stables to the
best advantage through a -four sitter.
In scattering this substance on the
manure piles, most of 1t should be
thrown around the outer edges of the
piles, for it is here that the most of
the fly maggots congregate.
1T is believed says the report,
that this information will greatly
help the health authorities in their
campaign against the typhoid fly.
Borax, which is used freely in most
households, and is readily available
in all parts of the country, has the
advantage of being comparatively
non-poisonous and non-inf1amable,
readily soluble in water and easy ii
handle. A single pound used as di-
rected in a garbage pail or an open
toilet may prevent the breeding of
hundreds of dangerous flies"
