WATERING THE GARDENS

The following press dispatch ap-
pearing upder Salem date line
shows that an encouraging situation
is developing that may make pos
sible the use OF water from city
water plants for irrigation OF gar
dens and small tracts within various
cities OF the state:
Governor Withycombe today for
warded letter to T. II. Foley, man
ager OF the Bend Water, Light &
Power company, congratulatlng that
company on its prompt response to
the request OF the Public Service
Commission that water utilities fur
nish attractive rates on water for
school children desiring to irrlgate
gardens for raising food products.
The company not only offered free

water. but in addition viii supply
free garden seed to the children,
''other letters were received by
the Public Service Commission today
on the same subject. but Of varying
tenor. The Drain Water company
responds that II will be pleased to
make rates adequate to meet condi-
tions that may arise. while the Rogue
River Water company, OF Grants
Pass. writes to the commission that
It believes the commission should
have consulted the water companies
before they offered their suggestions
as to lower water rates. They declare
that the utilities suffer from increas-
ed war prices and as q result they
would like to discuss the matter
before making any decision"
A few weeks ago suggestion was
made to the trustees Of the local
Chamber OF Commerce that Q syste-
matte campaign be made looking to
the utilization Of vacant lots in the
city for gardening purposes. It was
explained that water would be needed
for irrigation purposes II gardening
would succeed. and that the quantity
of water required and the rates es-
tablished by the state commission
made the effort most unpromising.
The manager Of the organization
wrote the governor asking whether
the regulations Of the public service
commission to which the water COM
panies were obliged to adhere to a
fixed rate schedule could not be mod
flied so that, II the water companies
we're so disposed. lower rates could
be granted for this city lot garden
purposes. This special rate request
was not to be considered permanent
but to meet the present food emer'
gency only. As a result Of this letter
the commission has granted the
right to the companies. and gardens
BY the hundred will be grown this
year throughout the state that could
not have been planted save for thi'
effort on the part Of the local or
ganization.

Wilson Asks Schools to Aid {. S.

The following letter to teachers
and all other school officers was is
sued by President Wilson:
The war is bringing to the minds
OF our people new appreciation of
the problems of national life and a
deeper understanding of democracy.
Matters which heretofore have seemed
commonplace and trivial are seen
in truer light. The urgent demand
Tor the production and proper dis
trlbuttOn of food and other national
resources has made us aware of the
close dependence of individual on in
dividual and nation on nation. The
effort to keep up social and industrial
organizations in spite of the with
drawal of men for the army has re-
vealed the extent to which modern
life has become complex and special
ICED.
These and other lessons of the war
must be learned quickly, if we are in
diligently and successfully to defend
our institutions. When the war is
over we must apply the wisdom which
we have acquired in charging and ell
nobling the life of the world.
In these vital tasks of acquiring
broader view of human possibilities
the common school must have a large
part. l urge that teachers and other
school officers increase materially the
time and attention devoted to instruc-
ton bearing directly on the problems
OF community and national life
Such plea is in no way foreign to
the spirit of American public educa-
ton or of existing practices. Nor is
IL plea for temporary enlargement
OF the school program appropriate
merely to the period of the war. 1t
Is plea for realization in public
education of the new emphasis which
the war has given to the ideals of dem
ocracy and to the broader conceptions
of national life.
In order that there may be definite
material at hand with which the
schools may at once expand their
teaching. / have asked Mr.. Hoover
flood administrator and Commission
er of Education Claxton to organize
the proper agencies for the prepara-
ton and distribution of suitable les
sons for the elementary grades and
for the high school classes. Lessons
thus suggested will serve the double
purpose of illustrating in a concrete
way what can be undertaken in the
schools and of stimulating teachers
In all parts of the country TO formu-
late new and appropriate materials
drawn directly from the communities
in which they live"

Enter Jack Rabbit

1t is excellent news that the depart
ment of agriculture has taken into
consideration the good food wasted in
immense droves of jack rabbits in
Testing the Western fields. and used
hitherto as mere fertilizer.
The rabbit is delicious game food
In Europe it is cultivated and eaten
as a delicacy. In the campaign for
the unusual the claim of the rabbit
should certainly not be overlooked.
1t has been considered such a pest
on account of it's tearing up fertile
soil, that in Australia it has been
poisoned and threatened, where it's
not so persistent, with determination
1t is the height of folly ever to de-
strOy any animal wholesale that is like
ly to help out in times like the pres
ent, where threatened scarcity of
normal food products call into being
new forms of animal food and new
agencies for their operation.
1t is now said that the hams of the
jack rabbit are especially palatable.
If this be so we may hope to dine
upon reindeer venison, whale steaks,
an entree of manatee, and the ham of
the jack rabbit.
AS it is deemed healthful by physi-
clans to evolve an ever-varying diet,
we may certainly prepare to become
an immensely healthy nation by the
time the boys "out there" come march
ing home. In their name let us ad-
venture whatever apparently weird
oddly appears on the menu-Milwau-
kee News.

NEARLY A HALF MILLION
Liberty Loan Subscriptions viii Per-
haps Reach Million Mark
This Week.

Up to 5 o'clock Monday evening
the banks of Marathon county had
officially reported to Chairman Gil
bert at headquarters of the Mara
thon County Liberty Loan Commit
tee, total subscriptions for Liberty
Loan Bonds to the amount of $42l
500, this being slightly in excess of
one third of the total quota assigned
to this county, which was 81, 200, 600.
The work of thoroughly organic
ing the selling forces for the city
and county is nearing completion
and the. big drive for the sale of
these bonds is but fairly under way.
The returns of the last two days
are of a particularly gratifying
nature and the County Committee
hopes by Saturday evening to have
reached close to the million dollar
mark.
One of the most encouraging feat
ures of the sale are the large num-
Der of subscriptions being received
from the country districts. The
report for Monday brought the
total up to double the figure for all
the previous time of the campaign
and excess of the total subscrip-
tions of the first Liberty Loan Bond
sale, and there is no longer any
doubt as to the full quota for towns
and villages outside of the city being
oversubscribed.
