The Oregonan evidently thinks it crime to permit
anything to be imported to the United States 1t would
have the markets of this country turned to the
Americans entirely and the manufacturers of this
try told go to it. that person earth would be al
lowed to compete with them. What would conditions be
under such arrangement? We have one Of it in
the Standard Oil company which fixes prices to suit itself
and until very recently almost without opposition If this
country did not buy abroad and continued to sell there
would in the of time have every dollar of coin
in the world, and bought nothing abroad all cash
trade would be stopped and could sell nothing because
there is nothing could get in return.
The protective tariff is simply provided by law
by which the whole people be taxed and the proceeds
be given to the few Theoretically sounds plausible but
in practice results in wholesale robbery.

in between California and Oregon con
tains some food for thought on the
part of people interested in such mat

for loading were held overtime, 09.S6

held overtime, 0S.37 per cent of all cars

Draws the Line
at a NJ other
Eve" Pilot O

Even If he was a blacksmith,
l.. w. Knickerbocker's love Of
beauty was of such a delicate Ia
ture it got him in trouble.
He married Gertrude Holzer
last June and before three months
had passed he wanted his new
wife to have her picture taken as
Mother Eve. That's what the wife
says, at least.
She objected and then began a
series of startling insights into
the secrets of each others lives
which were revealed today in Mrs.
Gertrude Knickerbocker's suit for
divorce before Judge Clifford.
''He took pills at night" said
the housewife today, that made
him get up every Is minutes dur
ing the night and walk. He glar-
ed at ME and | was afraid of him.
l think the stuff he took was
dope"
Kniekerbocker produced yhe
box of pills which resembled
strongly DR.. Carter's we'll known
brand.
'He expected me to live on
sour milk hotcakes three times a
day." she continued. "Once he
gave me a dollar and asked me
not to spend it. He expected a
five cent can of milk to last a
week"
These alleged cruelties, togeth-
err with others, forced her to
leave for short visit to the home
of her former husband, which ir-
ritated the present one.
He denies most of this wife's
story and claims she is a cold
blooded adventures who sought
only his money. She left him
every week or so, he claims, and
was taken back to his bosom on
each occasion.
This is, also, Knickerbocker's
second attempt at marriage, ac-
cording to the testimony.

Summer Feeding For
Milk Production

The most critical seasons of
the year to maintain economical
milk production are early spring,
before the cows are turned out on
pasture. and midsummer. The
skilled herdsmen who have made
careful study of the situation
claim that there is a greater loss
in the flow of milk at this time
than during the winter months,
when grain feeding is practioed.
During the summer months, in
most sections of the state, when
other farm work Is most pressing,
there is dry period of several
weeks. usually beginning about
the middle of July and ending at
the time of the rainy season. In
September or October At this
time pastures become short and
insufficient to maintain a high
level of milk production In some
cases the milk flow will decline
from so to rs per cent, and when
the fall pastures are ready it ia
a very difficult and expensive pro-
cess to bring the milk back TO its
normal
1t often happens that he
dairyman is not prepared for this
period, and now is the time of
the year to plan for such emer-
gencies 1t is possible to keep mp
the milk flow by heavy grain
feeding, but this seems unneces-
sarily expensive. There are two
other systems that may he prac-
ticed more advantageously. One
is a modified soiling system and
the other is the summer silo In
the soiling system a succession of
green crops is grown, when is cut
daily, or, in case of some crops,
every two or three days, hauled
and fed to the cattle in the barn
or pasture In irrigated sections
this seems to be practical, as 1t
is a comparatively simple matter
to grow succession of green
crops. The crops that may be
used for such purpose are alfalfa,
clover, corn, peas and oats. The
chief objection to this procedure
is the labor involved.
The plan that is most practical,
that does not involve muCl labor
and at the same time is ineXpen-
sive, is that which includes silage,
or the summer silo. No one
questions the value of cora silase
for feeding all kinds of live stock
for winter feeding. 1t Is of the
same value for summer feeding.
In any section where his mid
summer drought exists, Lhs farm
err should build his 'ilo large
enough to enable him to feed dur
ing the entire year, or build two
smaller silos, one Of which may
be utilized during the summer.
Except on the surface, there will
be but little silage spoil.
At the Idaho Experiment Sta
ton during the summer of 1915,
the supply of corn silage was eX-
hausted In May. In July a field
of peas and oats was cut for silage
and served to tide the herd over
the summer, with but a slight
decline in milk. 1t was relished
by the cattle. Alfalfa, some c.
real crop, or wheat and vetch,
may be utilized in like manner

PARALYSIS
EPIDEMIC
/ ALARMING

NEW YORK, July 60 - New
York's infantile paralysis cpl
demic today apparently spread to
several nearby cities.
In the meanwhile it showed
greater virulence in the greater
city itself, breaking all records
for development.
Cases were reported so fast
through the night that the health
bureau announced early today
compilations had been completed
to show exactly how many new
victims there were, but the bur-
eau estimated that the total since
the start of the scourage was now
above 500 cases.
The most sinister fact in con-
nection with the epidemic is that
the mortality from the disease
far exceeds any previous reports
in epidemics here or in other
cities.

Insects Taste fer Blood.

Insects whose ancestors for many
generations have never tasted blood
will seek it with the utmost keenness
if an opportunity presents itself. The
vast majority of the mosquitoes of al
species (Which are said to number
probably 10000 continue to exist ant
to reproduce their kind on purely vege
table diet. AS a rule the blood-seek
ing habit is confined to the females
but in the case of a few species it i;
said to be common to both sexes. The
taste for blood is stimulated by the
heat. Some of the species are nevel
met with LEI houses but are confined
to the deep recesses of forests ant
woods, and these never have an op
portunity Of tasting blood.
