Dairyman to Provide /,
Canned Music for Cows

San Francisco, Sept. 13.-Canned
music will increase the production of
"canned COW" on the prize dairy ranch
of W. w. Ward, near Eureka.
"Play the right sort of music when
your milking her, and a COW will give
ten per cen more milk" asserts Ward.
"I'm going to take the photograph
out of my yacht and install it in the
dairy barn. 1t makes the cows CON
tented You've got to play the right
sort of music, though. Ny herdmas-
ters, graduates of Cornell and Ames
college, tell me a funeral march makes
cows sad, and bangy, stirring music
gets 'em excited, so they don't give as
much milk. They like something like,
"The Blue Danube"
Ward doesn't believe his thorough
breds would stand for ''The Star
Spangled Banner" and he figures "Sil-
yer Threads Among the Gold" might
poison the milk.

garettes, twenty cigarettes to the pack
age.
The articles are all of standard, com
mercial size, and you could not buy
them for less than 80 cents at any re-
tail tobacco store in the country.
Thus, by contributing to this fund
you can save 25 cents, which you or
the soldier would have to pay if the
cigarettes and tobacco were purchased
by either of YOU.
One of the things to remember in
connection with the Capital Journal
tobacco fund is that the American sol
diers have not always got the money
to lay in a supply of tobacco. Then
again, tobacco cannot always be pur-
chased by soldiers near the firing line
May Name Particular Recipient
Even when it can be found it is not
the kind the American soldier likes.
The tobacco to be bought in France
is not up to the American standard,
according to experts, and the soldiers
should not be made to put up with
anything less in the way Of smokes

VacCineS and SerurnS Not
Used by ChirOpractOrs

No one is affected by germs who is
well. We must be sick before germs
vii laffect us. No honest minded phv-
stefan will dispute it.
This being true, why do physicians
who know it TO be true, treat sick folks
with the germ laden infections known
as serums and vaccines9 Why do they
give more germs when they know that
germs found in the patients are there
because the individual lacked natural
bodily resistance. Why not resort TO
safe means to recover the deficient re-
s~istance instead of in~noculating more
seriously and all the more ~endangering
it; There are several reasons, not the
least one of which is the fact that mil
lions invested in vaccine serum manu-
facture must be backed with all the
face that eommereialism can muster to
make it Pay well the makers and the
users.
Chiropraetors find that serums are
not necessary in their treatment of
disease. Before submitting to vaceina-
ton ''against" anything, or an opera
ton, consult a ehirOpraetor. DR.. o. l..

Perhaps it is the great bargain The
Capital Journal tobacco fund is get
ting that has prompted the women and
girls to donate so promptly and gener-
ously. The members of the feminine
gender can see a bargain forty miles
away, it is said, and it did not take
them long to perceive that the quanti-
4y of tobacco which The Capital Jour
nal tobacco fund can purchase for two
bits is worth almost twice that amount
By an unusually generous and patri-
otie arrangement with the American
Tobacco company, the Capital Journal
tobacco fund IS enabled to buy the
following for a quarter:
One package of Tuxedo tobacco and
four books of cigarette papers.
Three pouches Of Bull Durham to-

postal card will be addressed to you

Freight Received Up to S
o'clock Saturday - Last
Boat Up That Day

The Oregon Transportation company
will receive freight al the dock in Sa-
lem for Portland and way points as
late as ) O'Clock Saturday afternoon
of this week.
The warehouse for the delivery of
freight will be held open Monday and
Tuesday Of next week. After that date
arrangements will be made whereby
uncalled for freight will be stored with
the Capital City Transfer company.
The last boat to leave will be Sun
day morning for Portland carrying
freight and passengers. This is the
boat that ordinarily would leave Mon
day morning.
BY orders from the wal department,
the locks at Oregon City will be closed
next Tuesday night at midnight. This
will of course put an end to the run
ming of all boats for a period of six
weeks or two months.
This shutting off of river transpor-
%tation in the midst of the fruit and
grain season will work a hardship to
the farmers living near the lib land
ing points between Salem and Portland
Many of these farmers have contract
ed for the delivery of apples, peaches
anu pfuueS DeSlue lh6lT gram cioPS
and now with no means of shipping
they are facing a difficult propositions
If the river had been closed during
July and August for the repairs and
deepening of the locks at Oregon City,
no one would have suffered, as there is
very little freight moving. The hard
ship to the farmer results from the
closing of the locks just during the
two weeks or two weeks or two months
when they are moving fruits and grain
crops.
But the orders of the war depart
ment were to close the locks for .re-
pairs beginning Sept. 10 and the Ore

other course to take than 10 take off
