Every Woman Advised
To Learn Occupation

Every woman, rich or poor, should
learn at least one occupation other
than housewifery
The foregoing was one of many ideas
advanced at the second vocational con
ference for University of Oregon wom-
en-, which was concluded Saturday. 1t
was put forward by Mrs Rose Osbun
of Eugene, speaking on "Women in
Business. She answered the argu-
ment that if all women learned oecu-
patiOns women who did not need to
earn would often take employment from
those who did, by: "That is secondary.
Whoever can do the work must do it. T"
Every married woman should be for
titled by the ability to make her living
If reverses come, she said.
Newspapers depend as much upon
women as upon men for circulation.

Uni6CatiOn Of Churches
Will Come Through
Mission, Leaders Say
(By United Press)

Washington, April 29.-The unity of
the church, long sought by religious
leaders, can be brought to pass soon
er by encouraging the work of mis-
sions than in any other way, speakers
said today at the Mems National Mis-
sionary Congress.
The present convention, representing
all denominations and all sorts Of mis-
sions, is in itself a great move toward
better understanding among churches,
it was said, and the determination to
advance together in the. common field
Of missions is still another big step
toward nification.
With sessions in all Of Washington s
churches, tae congress W Il close to-
morrow Leaders agreed that in work
done, agreements reached and plans
made, it had done more to advance the
general work CT missions than any 9th
conference since the World Mission
airy Conference in Edinburgh, Scotland.

The large crowd that assembled to
hear Senator Burton Saturday even.
ing demonstrated the great interest
we all take in a man who aspires to be
president OF the United States.
The Senator's voice was well worn
and his speech was necessarily handi.
capped for that reason, but what he
said was direct to the point. He
made clear the necessity for better
and bigger patriotism than this eoun.
try has been displaying, and raised
the question that too much ease and
luxury are very liable to dwarf the
patriotic principles of a nation.
His partizanship was very pro.
nounced and he dwelt at length upon
the failure of democracy to do things
in national way. IN this his speech
hardened back to the days Of years
ago, and this feature of it failed to
bring the applause that it probably
would bring in the east, for Oregon IS
party lines have long since been more
or less swept away and people will
not listen with intense interest when
a man talks party.
But the speech as a whole showed
the senator to be the big man he has
been reported; it showed him to be a
man among men and Of tempera.
ment that is admirable. His long ser.
vice in congress has given him a fund
of information about the affairs of
the nation that is of great interest
and those who heard him are pleased
to have had the pleasure.
Senator Burton was followed by ex
Congressman Coles Of Ohio, who talked
for thirty minutes.

MIXTURE FOR LAYING FOWLS
Scatter Equal Parts of Cracked Corn,
Wheat and Oats in litter-Make
Hens Exercise

In order to obtain eggs it is neees-
sary to have healthy, vigorous stock.
properly fed.
A splendid mixture for laying hens
is equal parts of cracked corn, wheat,
and oats, which should be scattered
in the litter.
Bran or middlings and beef scraps
should be kept in receptacles to which
the fowls have access at all times.
Plenty of exercise increases the
egg yield.
Provide four or five inches of good,
clean litter in which to scatter the
grain.
Cabbages, mangels, potatoes. sprout-
ed oats, etc, make excellent green
feed.
When wet mashes are fed be sure
they are crumbly and not sticky.
For the first three days chicks may
be fed a mixture of equal parts hard
boiled eggs and stale bread, or stale
bread soaked in milk. When bread
and milk are used, care should be ex-
ercised to squeeze all milk out of the
bread. From the third or fourth day
until the chicks can eat wheat and
cracked corn, commercial chick feed
is a good ration.
Plenty of pure, fresh water, grit,
shell, and green feed should be avail
able from the first day.
There is very little danger Of over
feeding young stock.
Feed the chickens about five times
daily and only what they will eat up
clean in a few minutes, except at
night, when they should receive all
they want.
