"The land will support 100, 00O, 600
sheep-double the total number in the
United States at this time" said
Killen.
"Such a plan would mean a much
smaller freight rate for sheep raisers.
All Of this land is close to railroads,
most of it, within ten miles. The short
haul to the Chicago market also would
eliminate a shrinkage of about seven
per cent over western shipments"
Three big organizations have al

Marion Hotel Pioneer
In Food Conservation

1t seems that while the Portland no
tells are only just beginning to think
of food conservation, the Marion hotel
of Salem under the efficient manage
ment of Chas. G. Miller has for sever
al months been gradually changing its
bill of fare following out the approved
lines of food conservation.
For some time past the hotel has
been serving less and less white bread
substituting brown bread and breads
made from rye or mixed flours.
Very little pork or mutton has been
served bv the hotel and bacon has been
served only as a dish and not as garni-
ture. This is in line with the Hoover
approved lines. of food conservation.
While fewer meats have been serv-
ed, Mr.. Miller has been including more
vegetables in his bill of fare and this
is also one of the suggestions made
yesterday for the Portland hotels at
their meeting with w. B. Aver, Oregon
representative of Mr.. Hoover.
For some time past Mr.. Miller has
been giving special attention to the
elimination Of waste of every kind.
When Mr.. Aver takes a trip out TO in
terview country hotels in the state,
he will find the Marion at Salem a
veteran in the line of food conserve
tion, having put into actual practice
the suggestions of Mr.. Hoover before
the Portland hotels were even asked
to change their menu to conform to
the national idea of conserving food.

Bohemia" Sharp Brought
to Asylum from Eugene

J. H. Sharp, Oregon pioneer and min
ing man, known throughout the Viii
lamette valley as Bohemia" Sharp,
has been committed to the state insane
asylum at Salem. Sharp, who is nearing
his eightieth year, crossed the Isthmus
of Panama and came to Oregon in the
early fifties. During his early resi-
dence here he engaged in stockraising
and later became a miner, being among
the first prospectors in the Bohemia
mining district. From time to time he
received grub stakes from business men
OF Eugene, Salem and other Oregon cit
les.
Sharp is without relatives. He had
been 'fdown and out" for many years.
For a long time he lived upon the gen
crosby of early residents and friends
who gave him little sums of money
from time to time. One by one his old
associates from among the Oregon pio-
neers died. Finally, aoou a year ago,
he was committed to the Lane county
poor farm from which he now goes to
the asylum for those mentally infirm.
He objected when he was sent to the
farm. He asserted that he deserv-
ed better treatment. He protested on
being taken to the asylum. He announc-
ed that he would appeal to Governor
Whitaker.
Sharp had known Whitaker, before
his election as the first governor of
Oregon, when both were identified with
pioneer life in Eagene-Eugene Guard
