WHERE is THE UNUSUAL?

For some time the newspapers
have featured an experiment be-
ing pulled off in Chicago, under
which a dozen or, two people
have been growing fat on 40
cents per day for food.
What is there wonderful about
such a stunt?
L know a man who has lived
in Corvallis for several years.
who not only feeds, but dresses
and pays rent and other living
expenses on So for a family of
seven.
This man would be afraid of
the gout If he had 40 cents a day
apiece for his family.
l know a number Of college
students who live on half this
amount per day. One who has
lived on less than half and has
gained Is pounds in two and a
half months.
That Chicago experiment is
a big spill Of nothing. There
are thousands Of families who do
not think of expending that
amount per individual.-Benton

SENTENCED TO
STUDY FOREST FIRES

Two boys recently convicted
in a Los Angeles court of leav-
ing a campfire burning in the
Angeles National Forest were
sentenced to visit the scene of
a forest fire near Newhall, Calf
ornia, where 400 acres were
burned over and property to the
value of $4,000 was destroyed,
and to make a study of the dam
age done. Six months later
they are to report to the Judge
and tell him whether they have
done so and what lessons they
have learned.

THE EDDYViLLE INSTITUTE

Every thing went just as it
was ordered. The day was fine
and the train on time, and the
people OF Eddyville and adjacent
country did their best to make it
pleasant as well as profitable, for
the visiting teachers and grang-
ers, and | can assure you they
did. Every one expressed him
self as being well paid for the
trip.
The program was very inter-
esting and some good discus
sions which shows that the peo-
pie, who are Changers, think of
school problems as we'll as do the
teachers who are actually in the
work. Among the other ques-
tions that were mentioned, our
text books and the way of Sc
curing them was discussed at
length. 1t was the wish of those
present, that the state print he
books and sell hem at cost to
the people. The papers read and
the talks given were all good.
Prof. Blough, the Principal of
the Toledo High school gave a
talk that will long be remember
ed by those present. Mr.. Blough
knows just what to say and
when and where to say it.
We were treated so well (dur-
ing the noon hour) that we said
yes, when asked to come again.

Mr.. Bryan wants a law to
conlr ell newspapers to give @
G;oaler space for matters gov
eIhnlent desires published.
Every newspaper is flooded
now with requests for publicity
from nearly every department
and official bureau, state and
federal.
Newspapers receive from five
TO ten letters in a days mail set
ting forth the Importance and
value of services performed by
boards, officials and commits
Sions.
Time taken to prepare all this
matter, paper and postage, are
all at public expense and in
crease cost Of government and
seek to expand public functions.
High taxes, high cost of Or
ficialism, and constant increase
OF overhead expenses largely are
due now to governmental press
bureaus.
Why should the newspapers
be asked to run all this free of

ENCOURAGE INSTEAD
OF DISCOURAGE

In speaking Of our biggest
ships" building and about to be
built on the Pacific Coast, we
should do well to remember that
Bath, Me-, has set a high mark
for us and that we shall need to
go some to surpass it. The
largest wooden schooner ever
built was a Maine product. She
was the Wyoming, built at Bath
six years ago and still carrying
5000 tons of coal to cargo. This
schooner is 1895 feet long, SOL
feet beam and her normal reg
istry is 1880 tons. There are
several Others of these man.
moth vessels, chiefly six-masters
and all carrying the American
flag and some of them have paid
Tor their cost out of the business
they have done since the begin
ming of 1915. There is no rea-
son why the Pacific Coast should
not ultimately attain the Maine
record, however, since the ma
terial here Is of the best and we
are fast acquiring the exper-
ience that is necessary to estab-
lish confidence in ourselves.
A little legislation to encour-
age instead of discourage ship
ping under the American flag
would make the Pacific Coast
the greatest wooden ship build
ing center in the world.

In short we must bestir ourselves to secure the opening of Snake river to small vessels by every means in our power. Not alone does Nome lose great deal of money through failure to secure foreign trade that would normally come to us were conditions different, but also loses great deal of trade from the surround Ing districts owing to the inability of the local coasting fleet to operate for practically half of the short open sea son. During the present summer one, by the way. no worse than the ayer- age-the vessels of the coastwise fleet have been tied up for considerably more than half the time. The Flyer, for instance. during period of seventy days, was unable to operate for more than twenty seven. The Arctic and Silver Wave have remained for a week or more at anchor or in the lee of Sledge island on several occasions dur Ing the summer an., both are far behind in their sc,,e .ules F. cr gay of these idle perio Is represents q ioss to local trade and commerce rum ing into a considerable sum " the end of the season.

VOLUME XVI. NO. 268.

There is an obvious lesson for the merchants ot Nome in the statement ol Capt. Thompson. the Siberian trader. that he does not intend to look to Nome in future for trading supplies as the absence of harbor facilities subjects him to delays and expense which can be obviated by purchasing his supplies on the Siberian side
 For the past several years Captain Thompson has purchased practically all Of his trading supplies in the Nome markets, spending annually several thousand dollars, in addition to bring ing a large portion of his furs to Nome. thereby giving Nome the benefit of certain exchange values in those com modities.
 Needless to say this trade is exceed ingly beneficial to the business inter- ests of the city. A thousand or two dollars spent in a small community such as this has a very appreciable effect in the business marts at any time of the year and especially dur ing the midsummer period when busi- ness is normally slack.
 This is the time Captain Thompson usually appears with his little vessel and his trade Is, therefore. of more than ordinary value as it assists in tid- ing the merchant and business man over one of the dullest periods of the season, providing him with ready cash to meet the large bills pouring in from outside supply houses. in addition to furnishing q considerabel stimulus to business conditions generally.
 It may be further said of Captain Thompson, that his trade is not con- fined to one or two of the local busi- ness houses but is scattered among the various firms with beneficial re- suits to practically every line repre- sented.
 It is very valuable trade in every way and will be sadly missed if al. lowed to slip away to other markets, as it surely will be in the event that . vigorous effort is not made to re- tain it.
 As Captain Thompson has stated, the one and only reason for his decis- ion to secure supplies elsewhere is the absence of q shelter where his vessel may be loaded or unloaded without having to remain for weeks at a time owing 10 the vagaries of wind and wave.
 Captain Thompson further asserts that other ships and other traders would annually visit our shores from the Siberian side were it not for this unfortunate absence of shelter render ing to trip too dangerous and uncer- tain to be undertaken unless under the spur of extreme necessity.
 It needs not a moments reflection 10 perceive that Nome is not only about to lose the valuable trade of Tbomp. son but is yearly being deprived of large revenues from other sources which would unquestionably come here if there was some assurance that trade could be carried on without excessive risks and costly delays
 How much we have already lost be- cause of this condition cannot be told but 1t may be safely assumed that tens or thousand of dollars have drift ed away from us in the past few years alone and tens of thousands more will assuredly fail to come to us in the fu. l

Barley is strangely neglected by the
cook of today" says a writer in the
Woman's Home Companion. AS it
contains more starch and sugar and
less gluten than wheat. it might well
take the place Of the potato on our ia
bles and this with benefit TO purse and
health.
"One cup of barley will swell to five
times its original size when cooked.
and its uses are wonderfully varied.
"As breakfast dish with sugar and
cream it is rich and satisfying; for
dinner, as a garnish for meat or with
rich meat gravy. it makes a savory
entree; at tea time cold steamed barley
cut in slices and Drowned in hot butter,
then served with maple strip. is deli
cious.
Combined with dried or fresh fruits
it makes as wholesome desserts as rice.
Indeed, there is no way in which rice
may be prepared in which barley can
not be cooked with just as good re-
suits. Barley requires a long time to
cook properly. but now we have the
cereal cooker and the fireless cooker
and with them the opportunity to have
the perfect cereal"

Warships In Battle.

In the days of wooden war vessels
two frigates. or line-of-battle ships,
might be dashed together and fire shot
into each others interiors for an in
definite period. When Paul Jones was
summoned to surrender he replied that
he had not yet begun TO fight. At a
distance of eight miles there would not
be much conversation between hostile
commanders. even by signals, and aft
er vessel is hit there isn't much ques-
ton as to its future. A vessel may be
injured by gunfire and get away. but
if a floating steel fort is hit below the
armor belt by Il torpedo or has its deck
penetrated by a fifteen inch shell
which meets expectations in the
promptness of its explosions it does not
remain in sight many minutes. and the
crew can't float around on spars until
they are. picked up. for there are no
spars. In ten minutes the formidable
warship goes under and carries every
body on board. Philadelphia Record.
