NEW BULLETIN ISSUED ON
HANDLING FRUIT CROP

As a part of the campaign for
better methods of handling and mar
keting the Oregon fruit crop bulle-
tin on the physical handling of fruit
and the organization of the Oregon
fruit industry, has been issued by the
Agricultural College Extension serv-
ice and is now ready for distribu-
tion.
"To be of the greatest value to
growers this bulletin should be In
their hands before the end OF Au-
gust" said Prof. c. I. Lewis, author
of the section on physical handling
of fruit. ITO see that the fruit may
be prepared for market so the grade
and pack may be in accordance with
the best trade demands, to explain
the methods by which growers may
secure uniform methods of handing
the fruit from the tree to the car,
and to secure Standardization and
enforcement of inspection laws OF the
four northwest states, requires har-
mony of effort which this bulletin is
designed to assist"

SPRAY RECOMMENDATIONS

Those who did not spray for the
Goblin moth about the Goth Of July
or shortly thereafter, should do so
at this time. This warm weather is
conductive to egg laying and in a
week or so there may be many hat
ches.
In order to insure protection from
the late stings which has been ex-
perienced in the past, general spray
ing should be commenced about the
9TH to the 10th of September. This
spray should be applied on all ap-
pies and late pears. Granting that
your fruit is comparatively free from
worms at this time, 1T is poor econ
omy to leave this spray go and take
chances of getting even small num-
Der of stings before picking time.
Figure it out and you will find

Lithia Park Auto
Camp Attracts Many

The following named persons num-
being about $50, are registered in
the Lithia park kitchen during one
week, from August 16 to 22, both
inclusive. In addition to these there
are registered several parties from
Medford making Is or 20 more. j. B.
Renoult, young man from Jackson
VILE, who has been camping near the
kitchen for several weeks, says that
many of the campers never see the
inside of the kitchen and do not know
that the register is there, also that
some of them camp lower down in
the park so it is his opinion that
perhaps not more than half or two
thirds of the campers ever get their
names on the register.
Considering these facts the camp
ground is certainly providing to be
one of the cheapest, best and most
far-reaching mediums Of advertising
that Ashland has ever had.

Many Inquiries
About Grant Lands

The Ashland Commercial Club is
receiving an avalanche of inquiries
concerning the o. and c. land which
is to be opened up to entry some
time during the coming year or two.
Many of the inquiries come from the
far east and all of them indicate an
almost total lack of general knowl-
edge of the grant lands and the con-
ditions.
While the Commercial Club is not
in a position to furnish information
concerning the land, a general out
line OF the proposition is given in the
reply to the letters and the inquirer
is informed that further information
may be forthcoming from the United
States land office at Roseburg.
No announcement has been made
as yet at to how the land will be
opened to settlers, when it will be
opened, or under what conditions.

More Nice Things
About Ashland

Coquille Valley Sentinel: 1t was
nearing sunset however, when we
turned into the famous Lithia park,
on which Ashland has within the past
year expended the avails of $780,
600 bond issue, and enjoyed the re-
ception which it seemed as IL the
whole population of the city had
turned out to give u.s. The picnic
lunch served there, neatly put up in
individual boxes, was a model in its
way and was heartily enjoyed by the
crowd of visitors, with appetites that
had been sharpened by the mountain
ride.
In eXpending so large sum on
this park the city has been putting
its greatest resource in shape to be-
come an income producer. For the
lithia springs in the park are GER
tain to attain in time as great ce-
lebrity as the most noted European
Spas; and when this coast is as well
populated as the Atlantic shore, Ash
land will attract as many visitors as
does Saratoga.
All the natural beauties of this
park, which extends two miles up into
the mountains have been preserved
and not one of the trees of the oak
grove which filled the gulch has the
natural contour of the ground been
changed. The springs have been pro-
vided with large circular basins hav-
ing plenty of faucets. and the water
is not SO unpalatable as famous medi-
cinal springs often furnish. In fact,
its only marked characteristic was
its resemblance to carbonated soda
water.
Tall trees in this park were bril-
liant with electric lights and the band
in the big bandstand discoursed some
very fine music. OF course, there
was a speech of welcome, which was
responded TO in humorous vein by
Editor Piper of the Oregonian and
Colonel Patton. of the Washington
State Press association.

when he was accosted by an attend
ant of the state board of health and
informed that he must submit to an
inspection before being allowed to
proceed, that he must be searched
for evidences of infantile paralysis.
Evidence of the dread disease.
however, could not be found and he
was allowed to join his waiting FAM

Weather Bureau
Aids Sheepmen

In order to enable the owners of
some 100000 sheep and their lambs
in the Northwest to protect the lambs
and sheared sheep from the effects
of disastrous storms the weather
bureau, during the spring of 1916,
installed a special storm warning
service for Oregon, Washington and
Idaho sheep ranges. This service
proved to be of such value to sheep
men during the recent lambing and
shearing season that it will be. con-
tinued and possibly somewhat ex-
tended.
Storm, especially those accompan-
led by snow and cold rains, kill large
numbers Of lambs and recently shear
ed sheep unless they can be protected
in time. This is especially true, be-
cause early lambing to meet high
market prices is extensively practiced
in this section and because winter
feeding is expensive, and sheep are
usually shorn and put on the ranges
as early as possible. Even before
shearing, under especially stormy,
snowy, and muddy conditions, a eve
will readily succumb to fatigue and
starvation, and her lamb may perish
with her.
There have been instances where
the losses reached as much as 5C
per cent of flocks, in which the ami
mails were valued at about Sc each
AS a result of these losses the owners
make a practice where possible oi
sheltering their shorn sheep in can
yons and keeping them near shelters
during unsettled weather in early
spring.
Later the sheep are allowed tt
Craze more widely, and the herderi
must have warning of storms suffi
ciently in advance to enable then
to drive the sheep to the neares
shelter. During the springs OF 19l-
and 1916 thousands of sheep beyont
the reach of shelter perished in Sc
we're storms that swept over thes'
states.
The service during the spring wai
operated through 25 distributing cen
ters through which weather reports
and special warnings covering tenn
perature, rain, snow, winds, clouds
and clear sky, all of which have
bearing on the safety of sheep, were
distributed to nearly 100 other com
munities, The word was passed alone
by telephone to several hundred ad'
ditional stockmen. In this way the
warnings reached the owners OF mos'
of the sheep in these states by noon
or earlier of the day of issue.
In sections in or around the nation
al forests the forest supervisors CO.
operated with the weather bureau in
distributing these forecasts and warn
ings.

modern application of the methods OF
the ancient Greeks is being made in the
public schools. The first effort of DR.,
Champion, as he explains It, is to arouse
interest in sports on the part of the
boys. After the interest has been
aroused to such an extent that physical
training becomes a recreation instead of
one of the school studies, the task IS
simple.
Work of interesting the boys has pro-
crossed to such an extent that slightly
more than 100000 boys, or more than
one-third of the total enrolment Of boys
in the schools, participate in the COM
petitive meets held in various parts OF
the city. Boy graduates of high school
enjoy the benefits of not only their
knowledge of the three RS but have had
twelve years of painstaking training III
the development and care of their bod
les. During this period the time devoted
to athletics ranges from half an hour to
an hour a day. TO say nothing of the
extra time devoted to their training by
ambitious seekers after special track
and field honors.
The days routine of the modern
schooboy athlete and the ancient Gre
clan athlete do not differ widely in their
general divisions. ~ far as compari-

COULD NEW YORK FILL AN
ORDER FOR GREEK ATH-
LETES? WHY, SURELY.

"Can YOU tell us where we might find
sixty young men who might approach
lust approach, you understandable de-
velopment of the ancient Greek ath-
letes ?" asked Mrs. Grace Jenkins An
derson. director of the dances that will
be staged during the Greek lnterlude al
the Stadium programme. We're mop
ing that we may find few who won't
make the dances appear ridiculous by
comparison
DIR. Champion. who knew the sort OF
boys who were to be found IN the pup
lie schools, smiled broadly.
"What would you say to having the
Greek athletes you are to lmpersonate
DUPLICATED. or even outclassed, by mod
ern boys?" he asked.
'Td be convinced that you were Jok-
ing about what is a serious problem to
u.s." was the reply of the dancing expert
Every well, I'll send you some candl-
dates next Friday" was the final agree
ment of the school official.
At the appointed hour 200 typical
New York schoolboys appeared at the
gymnasium where the rehearsals were
to be held. Just offhand, one might have
said that they had little chance of being
selected for the parts that required mus
cular development. Such is the discour-
aging effect of modern tailoring.
But when the candidates had sepa--
rated themselves from the handicaps OF
trousers, shirts, collars and shoes. APP
nearing in the abbreviated garb OF the
ancients, the experts looked and acted
their surprise. Well rounded muscles,
square shoulders and calves such as are
usually expected only in marble were
disclosed in wholesale quantities.
Astoundingly promising raw material
the dance experts admitted, but still raw
material only. Here, again, was sur
prise. A few questions developed the
fact that among New York's school ath-
letes-among the candidates from which
the dancers were to be selected-were
discus throwers, hurdle jumpers and all
around field athletes who had broken not
only the records Of modern Greek ath-
letes. but of the ancients whose feats are
the subject of myth and legend.
Investigation revealed the fact thai

But the wide difference between these
two schedules lies in the varying mode
of living. The ancient rival of the mod
ern athlete spent all his waking hours
and much of his sleeping period beneath
the sky, exposed to the elements. The
New York boy spends all of his sleeping
period and most of his waking hours in
doors. protected from the elements in a
manner never dreamed of by the an
clients. Steam heat, complicated systems
of dressing and the use of numerous
sheets and blankets would have been
scorned by the Grecian, who believed
that the closer he got to nature the
greater would be his strength.
The bulk of the food Of the ancient
