CARING FOR TREES.

Tree growth is one Of the essen
tials of beauty in town or a neigh
borhood. The selling value Of real
estate can be greatly enhanced by
tree cultivation. But many people
seem to think they can stick trees
into the ground and have them grow
without any further attention.
Out in the country where there are
plenty Of air and sunlight and water
they will prosper without trouble.
But place them in town where their
roots lie largely under macadam
streets and concrete walks, and they
are going to lack their proper sup
plies of moisture.
Automobile travel, grinding fine
particles of stone and earth off the
streets and sending them all into the
air in the form of dust, is an injury
to trees. The pervasive dust covers
the leaves and obstructs the perform
ance of their functions. Or if streets
are oiled so as to prevent the dust
from flying in some measure, the oil
must obstruct passage of water in
the soil and frequently the tarry sub
stances come in contact with the roots
and injure them.
The fall is an excellent time of
year to inspect trees and see If they
are suffering. In the spring, If
tree has any life at all, it will look
we'll In the fall after it has encoun-
tered the strain of summer weather
1t will show weakness. Falling leaves
will show II tree is having a battle
for existence. Such trees may need
protection from insects another sea-
son, or possibly they need regular
watering to help them live under diff
ficult conditions
No matter how much money is
spent on house, it will never seem
like a real home unless it has trees
around it to screen it and soften its
outlines and give contrast. A healthy
tree Is constant source of pleasure.
Now is the time to look your trees
over and see whether they are need
ing any special care.

Sour Grass Cutoff Make
Route to Coast Better

Mr.. and Mrs. VIM Walton motored Il
the beach at Nestucca bay Saturday aft
ernoon, accompanied by Mr.. and Mrs
Henry Crawford, of Turner. They re-
turned today
Mr. Walton states that the picnic at
which the completion of the Sour Grass
cutoff was celebrated by the people of
Yamhill and Tillamook was a splen-
did success. 1t was held on the county
line, was largely attended and Governor
Withycombe was one of the speakers.
The cutoff does away with the toll
road and makes a splendid scenic drive,
crossing the Coast range at an eleva.
tion of 600 feet and having a grade
in no place to exceed five per cent. The
state highway commission and Yamhill
and Tillamook counties eo-operated to
build this road, which materially i'm
proves the route to the coast from the
valley.
If the road down the Little Nestucca
to the bay was properly improved now
it would put Salem in less than three
hour drive from the beaeh-probably
not over 60 miles. Efforts are being
made to have this road improved.

| Omitted Press staff correspondent
New York, July 2-Driving hard
for new batting record. Ty Cobb, De.
troit batting demon, is today on the
way to his thirty first consecutive game
in which he has hit safely at least
once. In the thirty games in which he
has pounded out safe blow the mar
vel of baseball has cracked the ball for
an average of .440.
Cobb sirted out his campaign of
frigh.fnness to American league pitch
ers on May 81. He faced Ray Caldwell
that afternoon in contest against the
Yankees at the Polo Grounds and
maeed him for single. He was Just
recovering from one of the most serious
batting slumps he had ever appeared in.
When Cobb began his hammer spc-
eialty he had dropped below the 800
average, some hing tnat hadn t hap
pened to him for about ten years. His
drive has carried him to an average to-
day o. 1886, well in advance of any pur-
suing batsman.
laundering down the stretch of a
full month of baseball the Georgia ter
ror has scored 20 runs and pounded out
SO hits, almost twice as many as the
number of games he has taken part in.
Nine of these blows were triples, nine
doubles and three were heme runs, one
of the four ply drives coming with
three men on the bases

This ~ not the first time Mr. Furst

who composed the music FOR tho Joan

there presented Maude Adams as the
immortal Maid OF Orleans. Some years
before that time and subsequently Mr.
f'urst was music director for the en-

LAWS CONSERVING
THE PUBLIC HEALTH
Great Progress Has Been
Made, but Much Yet Re-
mains to Be Done.
BY DIR. JOHN W. DUKE
Estate Commissioner

The United States public health
service has just issued a book of oven
six hundred pages giving the public
health legislation enacted in the vari-
GUS states and territories during the
past year. 1t is interesting as showing
the trend of public sentiment in this
important direction. Since each state
makes its own laws on subjects per-
tanning to public health, it is inevita-
BILE that there should be little general
harmony. Some states are advanced,
others are backward. Nevertheless, 1t
is encouraging to note that public
recognition for the need of legislation
along broad general lines is becoming
more widespread.
In a majority of the states stricter
laws were passed regarding the sale
and use of habit-forming drugs. While
the drug evil in this country has been
reduced, ii is far from being eimi-
mated. The Harrison law, passed by
the federal government. is an excel
lent law and did a great deal to limit
the sales of these drugs. Federal
jurisdiction necessarily is limited in
its action except in regard TO interstate
questions. 1t was necessary, there
fore, that the federal law should be
Ddtktu up ny Sldle ldNS. II Is en-
coura ging to see that so many states
have recognized this and passed dras-
tic laws in restraint Of the Illicit sale
and use of such drugs.
In large numper o. states laws
have been passed requiring that treat
ment be given every baby soon after
birth in order TO avert the possibility
of blindness. This legislation is much
needed. 1t should be in effect in
every state, including Oklahoma. A
very large percentage of the cases Of
blindness are preventable; simple pre-
cautions after the birth of the infant
would save the eyesight There is alb
solutely no danger in this treatment
1t should be given TO every baby. with
out waiting for signs of eye trouble to
develop.
There has been n general extension
of the precautions against the spread
Of communicable diseases. In many
states stricter penalties for failing to
report such diseases and to take
measures against their spread have
been provided.
State legislatures are coming to rec
ognze that proper sewage disposal
and pure public water supplies are
two OF the most important factors in
public health. A number Of acts have
been passed giving state. and In some
powers in this direction. The impor-
tance of such legislation cannot be
oyerestimated. Typhoid fever is one Of
