OFFICERS CORPS IS
ORDERED TO REPORT It
Expected They VIII Have to
Report at Preside Before
May Eight

The 80 young men of the officers re-
serve training corps who passed exam
ination recently at Corvallis, will soon
be on their way to San Francisco for
the preliminary three months training
before being assigned for active serv-
lee. Their examination was for that of
second lieutenant and they will receive
commissions as such at the close of the
training period AS second lieutenants
in the regular army, they viii be on the
pay roll of the war department to the
extent of $1,700 a year
All of the members of the corps to-
day received letters from the war de-
partment at San Francisco, notifying
them that the training at the Reserve
Officers training camp would begin
Tuesday, May 8. Also that they were
found eligible without further exam
ination to be certified as a suitable
candidate for attendance at the train
ing camp. Each candidate is asked to
sign an agreement with the government
to attend the full training period of
three months at the Presidio beginning
May s. Also to agree to obey the rules
anu TeEuldlIOUS eSJDallSutu ny JHe gov
ernment and to agree to accept such
appointment in the officers reserve
corps as may be rendered by the secre-
tary Of war.
1t is probable that the 80 men who
are eligible will report at the Preside
before May g.. 1t seems that the gov
ernment is so swamped with work in
the war department that it will take
several weeks before the commissions
would be sent those eligible in the Of
ficers' reserve corps and to facilitate
matters, the war department asks the
reserve officers to report at the Preside
and TO begin training at once, their
commissions to follow. But a commits
sion is not promised every one that
trains and while they enlisted in the
reserve corps to become second lieuten-
ants, this does not prejudice their right
for appointment to higher grade.

DANCER OF POISON?
SPECIAL DEPARTMENT ADVICE
..... ON CANNED FRUIT. .

The United States Department of
Agriculture has issued the following
statement prepared by the bacteriol-
ogists of its Bureau of Chemistry and
the States Relations Service:
There is no danger that the type
of food poisoning known. as 'Botul-
ism will result from eating fruits or
vegetables which have been canned
by any of the methods. recommended
by the United States Department Of
Agriculture, provided such directions
have been followed carefully. It is
possible that in a number of in
stances the directions were not strict
ly followed and that spoilage has
occurred. OF course, extreme care
should be taken to ascertain before
eating canned goods of any kind
whether they are in good condition,
and if they have spoiled they should
not be consumed.
In case of any doubt as to wheth-
or the contents of particular can
have spoiled, the safest plan is to
throw it away, although all danger
of Botulism may be avoided by boil
ing the contents of the can for a few
minutes, since the Bacillus botulinus
and the toxin or poison which it
produces are killed by such treat
ment. No canned food of any kind
which shows any signs of spoilage
should ever be eaten. In the cold
pack method of canning given out by
the Department of Agriculture, only
fresh vegetables are recommended
for canning, and sterilization is &C
complished by the following process
es: cleansing, blanehing, cold dip
ping, packing in clean, hot jars, add
ing boiling water, sealing immediate
ly, and then sterilizing the sealed
jars at a minimum temperature Of
PIP degrees Fahrenheit for one tC
-four hours, according to the character
of the material. Since the spore!
of B. botulinus are killed By heating
for one hour at ITS degrees Fahren
heit according to Jordan's "Bacteri
| ology" and other recognized text
books) there is no reason ia believ'
that the botulinus organism will sur
vive such treatment
