Odd Fellows In
Lithia Park Tuesday

Tomorrow is the day set apart by
the Ashland lodge of Odd Fellows
to entertain visiting members and
have good time in Lithia park.
Odd Fellows have been invited from
all over southern Oregon and a great
crowd is expected. All are to bring
their own basket lunches. Ashland
extends cordial welcome to every
one who can possibly attend. Lithia
park is becoming the rendezvous for
all lovers of good time in the shade
and by the running water. Picnic
parties gravitate as naturally to this
spot as apples to the ground, and
had Newton lived in Ashland this
summer he might have been con-
founded in establishing his theory
that gravity always pulls directly to-
ward the center of the earth. Elevar
tion attracts here, or at least does
not prevent the action of the force
which brings people from far and
near and nearly every cline to rest
and think and feast in the midst of
ideal surroundings.

they need strike relief. 1t is to be
doled out in portions of $40 month
among the 100000 men who would
be involved in national railroad tie
up. How long it would last is prob
lematical, for relief might start with
the opening of the strike or might be
delayed until later.
AS the brotherhood men view 1t,
their mighty war chest probably
would not be touched in the forth
coming strike, for they believe 1t
would be so brief that the men would
not feel the pinch of unemployment.
This great war fund has been gath
cred through weekly contributinos
covering a long space of time. The
assessment varies according to the
members earnings, but the total sum
per year is written in fixed thou
sands.

Washington to every railroad center

in the country, is sufficient to pre-
cipitate the strike. The more than
600 brotherhood delegates who left
Washington for their posts Sunday
carried instructions for running the
strike.
Trains on the line will be run to
the nearest junction; fires will be
banked and engines oiled. The en-
gines and the cars will be delivered
to the companies in perfect condition,
and every union man will quit the
property with orders to avoid vio-
lence or trespass.
The feeling predominates in local
railroad circles that a strike is only
few days off.

Federal Farm Loan
Board Hearings

Washington, Aug. 13.-Hearings
of great Importance to farmers, farm
organizations and cities throughout
the country are to be conducted by
the newly appointed federal farm
loan board. One for the state OF
Oregon will be in the federal build
ing at Portland on September T.
1916. This hearing is to secure in
formation to guide the board in de-
termining the boundaries of the
twelve federal land bank districts
into which the United States is to
be divided for the administration of
the new rural credits law. known as
the federal farm loan act.
The members of the federal farm
loan board who will conduct the
hearings are Hon. William G. Nc
Adoo, secretary Of the treasury; G.
w. Norris, farm loan commissioner;
Herbert Quick, Capt. w. S. A. Smith
and C. E. Lobdell.
The board has requested farmers,
farm organizations and others inter
ested to furnish at each Of these
hearings facts concerning the need
of cheaper farm loans, and it has
asked interested cities to present
claims for the location of one of
these land banks. This will be the
only hearing in the state of Oregon.
The new federal farm loan act vii!
do for the farmer what the federal
reserve act is doing for the business
man. Under it the government pro-
vides the machinery for assembling
capital to be loaned to farm owners
or prospective farm owners on first
mortgage farm security. The loans
can not exceed so per cent of the
value of the land and 20 per cent Of
the value of the permanent improve
ments. The loans will be made at a
low rate of interest not yet deter
mined, but not over per cent, and
provision is made for the borrower
to pay off the loan and interest in
small annual or semi-annual pay
ments at his option, during a period
of not less than five nor more than
forty years. Farmers, to avail them
selves of the benefits of the law.
must first organize themselves in
groups of ten or more to obtain a
charter as a farm loan association,
and thereafter application for loans
can be made through it to one of the
twelve federal land banks. The land
will then be appraised, and if it
meets requirements, the loans will
be made.
The new legislation is expected to
prove a great boon to those sections
of the country where development
has been retarded because of high
interest rates, and it is predicted
that it will have the effect of making
agricultural prosperity permanent
and uniform, stabilizing land values,
and greatly improving general farm
conditions.
Thousands of requests to the U. S.
Treasury Department for informa-
tion regarding the application of the
law indicate the great nationwide
interest in its provisions.
Secretary McAdoo predicts that
the banks will be ready for operation
January l or shortly thereafter.

Wall Street Brightens at Reply to
 Presidents Note

Wall St.-Trading became exceed ingly listless after the first hour on the lack of outside interest. A general dropping of prices including marines and U. s. Steel leading at recessions of one to two and one-half points, while Alcohol, Crucible Steel and Mex ican Petroleum yielded sympathetical- ly. Off-setting features, including a five point gain in Ohio Gas and in the obscure specialties attracted little at tentiOn.
 In the second hour the list hardened again, some stocks rising above ini- tial levels on a larger volume of busi- ness, but before mid-day this was dis sipated largely as a result of the re- current weakness of marines. Bonds were firm.
 Extreme gains of three to five points in oils featured the mid-session. ac- companied by reports of an adjust ment in the Mexican situation ElseWhere prices gradually hardened on publication of Germanys renewal of peace overtures.

9ng and bed clothing still on fire. the hfe1ess form of Mccarthy was found
 by Lieut.. Frank A. Gilligan of Engine Go. No. 1, who led a detail searching for others supposed to be still in the ; rfre-sWept rooms. The flooring of the room had been burned through and the flames threatened to destroy any traces of their human toll. Dr. Har- .Ty A. Elcock, medical examiner. was Fptified and gave permission for the removal of the body to the morgue of M. J. Kenney & Co.,, at 351 Main Lstreet.
 ~ The semi-conscious and hystericaI form of Miss Bransfield was stumbled over soon afterwards by Lieutenant Gilligan, She was turned over to Chief Dame who carried her down and took her to the White House
 Mnchroom nearly opposite. It was first feared that the smoke had claimed her as a victim and the pull motor was used by Chief Dame. He was relieved by Dr. Mendel Voll<en- helm who used restoratives. Later, upon his advice, she was taken to the Hospital in the police ambulance as it was feared that shock and exposure
 eould result seriously.

FLAMES THREATEN
 APARTMENT BLOCK
(Continued from First Page.)

the fire had it's origin from an over
 way before discovery.
 Although the flames did consider able damage to the cellar and first
 floor of the block, the entire structure
 was damaged by smoke and water
 It was necessary to pour tons of wa
 ter into the building and on the sev-
 eral floors to prevent the flames from
 spreading up through the partitions,
 so 1t is feared that the contents of
 the block will be an almost total
 loss. MT. Ladd will undoubtedly be
 the heaviest loser as his store is com-
 pletely gutted and his entire stock of
 supplies, consisting of drugs, surgi-
 cal implements and other stock of a
 costly nature is totally destroyed. At
 this time it has been impossible to go
 over the building carefully, but those
 familiar with 1t have not hesitated to
 estimate the loss at ,$2O,O0O.
 City Officials On Scene.
 Everywhere was heard praise for the efficient manner in which the fire department handled the situation. Handicapped as the department was
 by lack of men, until all the callmen | responded it was the concensus of opinion that they did remarkably we'll to save the block at all for at the time of their arrival 1t was feared by all that the entire structure would be reduced to a smouldering mass of debris Chairman E. G. Babcock
 was an interested spectator during the fire and Mayor George A. Quig- ley was also present, watching the work of the firemen. He expressed himself as pleased with their showing. Building Inspector Arthur N. Ruther- ford was also on the scene.
 Another handicap against which the l firemen had to contend was the cold and the extremely icy condition of 1 the street immediately surrounding l the block. Running with the 1 hose or ladder, the men slipped con-
 tinually. It was suggested to Chair l man Babcock that the firemen be | equipped with ice creepers to use on l just such occasions. There was also
 a deplorable lack of proper equipmen ent l to protect the tiremen from the l smoke. Chairman Babcock has often | recommended the purchase of addi-
 tional smoke masks, but the other | members of the safety board did not l think it necessary. Today proved the
 absolute need of such apparatus for 1 the men and had they been SC | equipped they would have been better 1 able to handle the situation at the 1 start.
