LOSSES OF CHICKS
MAY BE REDUCED BY CARE

Various agencies like crowding, i'm
proper feeding, brooding and housing
may cause heavy mortality among in
cubator chicks. Such troubles may be
overcome by preventative rather than
curative measures.
Leg weakness is. a common ailment
of chicks up to six months of age. I'm
proper feeding, by which the weight is
increased faster than the strength, is
the most important cause of this dis
ease. A change of diet, as for instance
the substitution of bran, oatmeal or
pinhead oats for corn and cornmeal,
will often correct leg weakness. Plenty
of green feed should also be given and
little skimmilk is beneficial.
Gapes is another chick trouble COM

HOW U-BOATS
THREATEN PROSPERITY

If the German submarines should
even approximate their threats of
stopping traffic to England, France
and Russia, it would practically also
amount to a prohibition of American
export trade. This would imme ediately
have a direct effect upon almost ev-
cry community in the country as well
as the general effect of depression
and probably panic. Our prosperity
is largely measured by the fact that,
in 1918, our exports amounted TO $25
per capita and, in 1916, $50. Sixty per
cent. of them go to England, France
and Russia.
A study of the sources of these eX-
ports show that they come from prac-
tically every section of the country.

To the parents of America these
questions are to-day put:
Do you want your boy to die q
perfectly useless and unnecessary
death in the field or in the hospi-
tai, or do you want him to go
forth with reasonable chance of
coming home to you?
The choice rests with you!
Under the Constitution of the
United States and under the ma
tional defense act of June 3, 1916,
the President of the United States
is authorized in case of war to call
into military service all citizens of
a fighting age.
AS your boy will have to go to
war anyway if his services are
needed, it is up to you to decide:
Whether If he goes-and go he
must-he shall go trained, hard
ened and alive to the dangers that
he is to meet, or UNFRAMED, soft
and ignorant of military matters
and dangers half awake and fear
full of the unknown;
Give Him u Chance
Whether he shall go a marks
man, knowing how to attack and
defend, how to take care of him
self in the field, how to keep him
self in vigorous health, how to
look after his feet, his skin, his
teeth, or whether he shall go ig-
norant as child of all the things
that he needs to give him a chance
to survive and win out alive;
Whether he shall go to war
with reasonable chance of re-
turning therefrom, or to deadly
certain disaster;
Whether he shall go with all
the possibilities that lie in his
receptive young mind and active
young body fully developed for

Boy Scouts Prepare to
Perform Deeds of Aid

With the approach of war Boy
Scout activities have gained new inn
petus. There are. five troops in the
city under the direction of as many
local churches. and two more troops
are forming. one at the Second Reform
ed and another at the CoXestown Meth
odist Church.
In time of war the Scouts would
put to practical use their first aid
knowledge and perform other deeds
of kindness. Troop 4, of Emmanuel
Presbyterian Church, under the lead
ership of Garfield McAlister, last night
at drill gave a demonstration of ffrst
aid to the injured, modifying and gem

AND
MILITARY TRAINING

In arguments about military train
ing, one hears a good many adjectives
used, and some pretty sharp nouns.
It's pity We have problem on
hard names doesn't help to solve it.
'Militarism" is one of these words
that is being banded about. An eff
cient system of military defense, such
as Washington and all constructive
american statesmen have favored, is
one thing; the militarism against
which the French, British and Bel
gian democracies are battle Is quite
another.-From Comments on Con-
gress," in Golfers.

PROMINENT MEN
GIVE MILITARY
TRAINING VIEWS

his own safety, or undeveloped,
blindly ignorant of these things
that may save him.
In a campaign the chances of
trained men for ultimate safety
are vastly superior to those of raw
recruits.
To send unframed troops to
meet troops trained in modern
warfare is sheer murder. They
would die like sheep.
1t is up to the parents
Will they choose the wiser
course and have their boy if he is
called to the front go there alert,
hardened, drilled, disciplined,
awake to all possible dangers and
prepared to meet them-a typical
soldiers of the republic; or are
they going to deny their boy that
training and knowledge to which
he has as much right as he has to
the life tina your gave him, that
training and knowledge which you
cannot, but the government can
and will gladly give him If you but
say the word?
Crime to Deny 1t
To deny him this chance for his
life would be a crime, for it is his
right.
Congress is about to meet agan.
1t will seek to avaid this issue be-
cause 1t will fear-what?
The fathers vote, the mothers
thoughtless condemnation of a
measure that she does not under
stand. 1t is you that Congress
fears. Nine months hence will be
too late. Then your boy may have
alreadys been called to the army,
soft and helpless as he is now. If
you want to give him a chance
telegraph to your senators and
congressman urging them to pass
a universal training bill before
Congress adjourns and before it is
too late.
Act now! The future safety of
your son rests in your own hands.

THE PROSPERITY SIDE


~ HE material benefits that
VI are to accompany this
war hardly can be eX-
aggerated. In the long run
they cannot fail to appear in a
very practical way through Sc
curities of the corporations
which are so closely identified
with our country's activities.
We are to emerge from the
struggle in a far more prosper
Gus condition than any or all
the other great nations whose
participation antedated our
own by nearly three years, In
that long period our manufac-
turers, our farmers and all
other American interests en-
joyed a period Of entirely un-
exampled prosperity. Our in
dustrial plants were tuned up
to the highest pitch of effici-
ency, our labor had attained
the highest degree of skill in
the various departments of
manufacturing. Therefore, re-
gardless of the further dura-
ton of the war, we as a ma
ton will enjoy the advantage
of having entered after our al
lies had expended so great a
part of their physical and fl
nancial strength. This is a
handicap that they hardly may
be expected to overcome for
some time after peace shall
have been arranged. In the
meantime our business men
will continue the keen compe-
tition to retain the advantages
that have been thrown in their
way during the fore part of the
struggle. Our government has
entered upon shipping plans
that will mean that when the
war ends we shall see the Am
erican flag in all the great
ports Of the world and on the
seven seas. We have in recent
years entered many new mar
kets and have had the opportu-
nifty of introducing American
goods. These advantages we
shall in large measure retain.

connection with the school sU-
perintendency but the East
Oregonian has no desire to in
dulge in such comments. The
facts in the case are obvious
and people may judge for
themselves.
1t may be timely, however,
to reiterate that Pendleton by
virtue of its size, resources and
general prestige is entitled to
the best school administration
in eastern Oregon and should
have it. To obtain these re-
suits it should have and must
have the best superintendent.
Character, ability and expert
ence are required in a man fill
ing this position and needless
to say a man of the proper
stamp cannot be secured unless
a salary is offered that will at
tract such man. Good school
men are scarce and they com
mand good salaries but they
are worth it. We can afford a
good man; we cannot afford
an incompetent, not if he would
work for nothing.
Let it be hoped the school
board viii use due delibera-
ton, as they doubtless will
and secure the best man avail
able no matter where he may
hail from. The people are
tired of turmoil and want a
strong, successful management
of school affairs. They have

A MERIToRIoUs PROPOSAL

mD HERE is genuine merit in
VI the Hermiston site for an
army training camp.
There is abundant unused land
for all purposes, transportati-
on facilities are excellent,
there is abundant water avail
able and best of all the climate
is such that field work may be
carried on with comfort and
success practically the entire
year. This latter feature alone
in the view of the East Oregon
ian gives the Hermiston locati-
on an advantage over the camp
at American lake where the
rainfall is heavy during fall,
winter and spring months. Sol
diers in a camp located west of
Hermiston would be able to
drill in the open during a peri
cd twice as long as would be
possible in any camp west of
the Cascade mountains in Ore
gon or Washington. If new
camps are to be established the
Hermiston site will be entitled
to serious consideration and
the fact an officer has been de-
tailed to investigate the site
shows that the proposition is
attracting favorable attention
from the commanding officers
of the western division.
