A VALUABLE BIRD.
The Rough Legged Hawk Is a Helpful
Friend on the Farm.


An extremely helpful friend Of ours,
when bird friends are few. is the
rough legged hawk, saws writer in
Farm and Fireside. Unfortunately this
bird Is little known or valued. Ii
reaches the United States from its
northern breeding range in September
and October, remaining until April.
1t may be identified afeld by its
broad wings, its large size and the
broad dark band which crosses its
breast and under side of its wings. 1t
is comparatively tame. The name
rough legged or hare footed is made
appropriate by the bird 5 full feathered
legs and feet.
Tne coloration of the American rough
leg and its more western subspecies.
the ferruglnous rough leg, varies from
the type here described TO almost solid
black. In this darker phase the rough
leg is commonly called the black hawk.

THE MAKING OF PAPER.
Thrift Was the Order Of the Day When
Only Rag Stock Was Used.

Only Rag Stock Was Used.
1t was In the year 1867 that the first
wood pulp paper in the United States
was manufactured. and 1t would be
difficult TO estimate the benefit this has
conferred upon the world. for ii was
u step in the dissemination of knowl-
edge. particularly current news, just
as was the invention Of movable types
and the printing press.
1t will be remembered by many still
living with what care every rag was
saved to be converted into paper In the
days when only rag stock was used in
its manufacture and how the paper,
after 1t had served Its purpose at the
printers, was carefully put aside for
wrapping parcels. Those were days OF
automatically imposed thrift. which
were followed by disregard of econo-
mics so widespread that already. after
only half a century, we are confronted
by a prospect OF serious shortage Of
supply OF the new raw material.
Just as the supply OF rags In the
sixties would not have sufticed for

The plumbing calls for about ,6OO,- 900 feet of pipe, 4O,O00 closets and tanks: 30,000 shower bath heads, and tremendous quantities of pipe. fittings, sinks, boilers etc
 Bear in mind that while the rail roads are hauling all this load for the Government over tracks and into terminals that they hay" heen com pelled in many cases t. build, especi- ally for the purpose, all the factories of the country must be kept supplied with fuel and raw materials, the huge crops must be moved to market and the greatest industrial traffic the country has ever known kept moving smoothly day and night.

will be needed to move troops nor the $500 to 5000 workmen who will be attached to each military city. Then, too, it must be remembered that many of these cantonments will be located where no terminal railroad facilities exist, and these will have to be con- sJructed before work on the canton ments themselves can start.
 Figures given out by the War De- partment indicate the tremendous bur den that will be placed upon the rail- roads.
 Concrete work in each canton ment is estimated to require 47O0 barrels of cement, 140O cubic yards of sand, 25OO cubic yards of broken stone or screened gravel, over 25OO kegs of nails, 5,6OO,OOO board feet of boards, 7,SO0,OOO board feet of dimen- sion stuff, 177,O0O feet of Ax4 inch timber, 2,SOO,OOO feet of flooring, l.. 100000 feet of siding and 1,4OO,O0O feet of matched boards. These figures vary in the Northern and Southern states to allow for climatic adap- tions The Northern states will re- quire more lumber than given above. Estimates of the total requirements of electrical equipment for the sixteen military cities amounts 10 20,S00,00O feet of insulated wire, 26O,0O0 feet of lamp cord, 125,0OO key sockets, and about the same number of shades 15O,OOO cleat receptacles, 22,OOO snap switches, 27.S00 combined switches and plug cut-outs; 75,O00 plug fuses 3,0O0,0O0 pairs of unglazed porcelain tubes; about 100000 l IT to IA in. wood screws; $500 pounds of friction tape, 4,OO0 pounds of solder, and other items on a similar scale.
 In order to extinguish fires in these cantonments about 83000 fire extin. water pails, and 3SO.OOO feet of hose will be on hand.

large crowds are enjoying these happy

May Get Appointment.

Will Moore Of Pendleton, prominent
demomcratic warhorse, is slated for
the position of collector Of customs in
Portland If the state democratic cen
tral committee has anything to do with
the appointment, reports the East Ore
gonian. The committee at meeting
in Portland Saturday afternoon decided
to recommend him for appointment to
Senators Chamberlain and Lane. At
present the position is held by Thomas
Burke of Baker but his opposition to
the reelection of Senator Chamberlain
two years ago has probably eliminated
him for reappointment. Mr.. Moore at
tended the meeting as committeeman
from Umatilla county and considers
prospects for his appointment to be
bright.

TAX COLLECTION TO
BEGIN ABOUT FEB. 10

Collection Of Umatilla County taxes
for 1915 will probably begin about
February 10, according to the word in
the sheriff's office, says the Pendleton
Tribune.
The assessment rolls of 1915 con-
tanned tax statements to the extent of
$671, 773 and it is expected that the
rolls of 1916 will be quite a bit larger
and will not fall below as it has done
in Multnomah county to the extent of
almost $3.50, 900.
Taxes must be paid without interest
up to and including April 8. Begin
ming with April s., interest of one per
cent month will be charged on the
first installment Of taxes. The full
tax becomes delinquent if unpaid after
October 5. The per cent penalty will
be added to the amount of the tax on
November 8.

Callan, Kubli, Lewis, Mackay,
Schimpff, Stott and Willett- these are
the names of the only members who
voted against the bone-dry prohibition
bill in the House Monday.
The bill went through the House late
in the day after four-hour siege of
oratory, by vote of So to 2. AS soon
as the vote had been taken members OF
the House were served with individual
half-pint bottles Of loganberry juice
and the entire assembly rested while
the bottles were drained.
The bill, as passed, merely carries
into effect the constitutional amend
ment adopted by the people at the
November election prohibiting the i'm
portation of alcoholic liquors for bev-
erage purposes. 1t also remedies the
existing prohibition laws SO that it
will be impossible to buy pure grain
alcohol excepting on prescription of a
physician or permit Of district attor-
ney.
As the measure carries an emergency
clause, it will become law as soon as
it is signed by the Governor.
There never was bit of doubt about
the passage of the bill through the
House. 1t was absolutely certain from
the time the session opened that it
would have at least so affirmative
votes. Whisky lobbyists and their
supporters made determined effort at
various times to knock out the emer-
gency clause but, obviously, without
success. The bill had been made a
special order of business at 1870 Mon
day morning. Every seat in the cham
Der and the lobby back of the railing
was filled. White ribboned members
of the w. C. T. U. had reserved seats
in front.
After the entire bill had been read
from beginning to end, Representatives
Anderson, its joint author with SEN
ator Eddy, explained its principal pro-
visions in detail, giving particular at
tention to the several amendments
made by the committees since the or
| iginal bill was printed.
Representative Lafferty, who had
been member Of the committee, OBJ
jected to that provision which permits
clergymen to import wine for sacra-
mental purposes in unlimited quanti-
ties, even though they are required to
have permission of their district at
torneys. He argued that this section
| would enable any group of thirsty in
dividuals to organize religious societies
and make importations ostensibly for
"sacramental purposes.
