new AUTOMOBILE
ORDINANCE soon
The Measure Makes Many
Changes In Present City
Regulations

All automobiles in the city Of Salem
must be brought to a fun stop in pass
ing street cars receiving or unloading
passengers.
This is one of the provisions of the
new ordinance traffic law introduced at
the meeting of the city council last
night. Here Is another:
1t shall be unlawful to park automo-
biles from 8 clock in the morning un-
til 6:15 in the evening as follows:
On Commercial street between State
and Chemeketa.
On Liberty street between State and
Chemeketa and on either side Of Lib
erty street between State and Ferry
streets.
On the west side Of High street be-
tween Chemeketa and point $50 feet
south of the south line Of State street.
On either side of Court street be-
tween Commercial and High streets.
What is to become of the auto down
towm2 Here is the answer, according to
the proposed ordinance:
Automobiles may be parked in the
Center of Court street between Com
mereial and High streets; also in the
center of Liberty street between Ferry
and State street. On both Of these
streets, the auto must be parked at an
angle Of 80 degrees.
The passage Of this traffic ordinance
would mean that no more cars for hire
could stand around the Oregon Electric
depot, nor any of the trucks or bag
gage autos be permitted to use State
street as a place for getting business.
The shopper would be allowed time of
course TO enter a business house for pur-
chases, but the car would be driven
along the sidewalk and not parked dHr-
ing the business transaction.
Other provisions of the proposed traf
fic ordinance are as follows:
In passing car, the signal is one
blast or stroke Of horn, belb whistle ori
gong OF other signalling device. If the
vehicles ia front does not turn aside giv-l
ing half the road, the approaching car
may give three signals and then pass
any TINS it is found convenient without
additional signals.
No engine may be shut down in an
auto unless more than 20 feet distant
from a hydrant. Tis is fire protection.
Drivers between the ages of Is and
Is years must be accompanied by his
or her guardian or parents, as ordinar
lily is years is the limit.

Mr. Holt bought five pigs averaging
81 pounds each and took them to the
camp at Mary's $ River to serve as gene
eral scavengers for the camp, figuring
that 1t would be less trouble to let tho
pigs eat what was left from the tables
than to dispose OF it at distance from
he camp. The pigs evidently did good
job Of it as a few days ago MIR. Holt
shipped them to Salem ana the scales
showed q total weight of 2250 pounds,
or an average OF 400 pounds each
against the ~ OF this spring. The check
received was S331.s0. As a side line to
the lumber business, Mr.. Holt figures
raising hogs will show good margin att

thing to feed them.

Startling Facts.

The national wealth In 1917 Is esti-
mated at s187,739, OIL 900. The national
retail liquor bill exceeds one per cent
of the national income. The money in
circulation in 1917 is s4,49s, 060.871. or
just about twice the national drink bill
The bank clearings at the latest avail
able statistics are placed at $260.953.-
$4,000. The total retail cost of the al
coholic liquor traffic, together with its
consequential loss to the country would
pay about two per cent on this vast
sum. The capital of the national banks
is s1.067. 5e5. 900. or less than half of the
actual cost of drink in one year. The
cash in all banks amounts to only ST.
oil, 900, or Ass than the drink bill
which is just about equal to the i'm
ports of merchandise, 1891, 654,335; is
more than twice the size of the public
debt, 1856, 297.253; one hundred times
the annual interest charges on the ma
tional debt and nearly twice the total
receipts and disbursements of the fed
eral government, $1,504,157, $50.
The per capita wealth of the country
in 1917 is $1,565. One per cent Of this
each year goes to pay for drink. The
percapita money in circulation is
1880, which is only about twice the
per capita cost of drink.-Methodist

LIABILITY" to Service.

The Evening Post of New York ar
ardent supporter of President Wilson
calls the Presidents utterance lila
bility to SERVICE" ambiguous, and goes
on to say:
But the principle of universal liza
bility to service has always existed
from the beginning of the Republic
1t was in the background when the
volunteers Of 81 and '98 were accepted
and under it the draft was instituted
SO ineffectively in 1863. Just what the
President meant to convey must await
further elucldation, either by his
hand or through the War Depart
ment's legislative proposals. 1t is
quite possible that he has discarded
without trial the new Federal volun-
teer system which he approved on
April 25, 1914. because of some fear
that volunteering might deprive GER
tain industries and the railroads of
necessary labor. But this difficulty
could easily be met by proper instrue-
tons to recruiting officers To begin
to draft now at the outset of the war,
when 100000 volunteers can be had
utter mistake, and one certain to take
the edge off the popularity Of the war
1t would at once precipitate the ques-
ton of the conscientious DIRECTORS, of
whom there are many. More than
that. drafting Is complicated and cum
bersome and requires a machinery
not easily devised"
Before compulsory service is at
tempted with the bitterness toward the
government it always engenders. that
valiant colonel, W. J. B. with his mil
lions that will spring to arms
should he given a chance. Such in
spring leaders as Bryan and Daniels
should make the first half million only
TOO easy.

Waste No Food.

From the u s. Department of Agri-
culture come the following suggestions
worthy of careful observance in every
household:
Food is wasted:-
(a) When we eat more food than
our bodies need for growth and repair
and to supply energy for our work.
Overeating tends to poor health and
fat instead of Drawn, makes us slug
gish and indolent instead of energetic
and resourceful Eat enough and no
more. Eat for physical and mental eff
ficiency.
90 When food is burned or spoiled
in cooking. Improperly prepared or
poorly seasoned food will be left on the
table and probably wasted. Buy food
wisely and then prepare it carefully.
Co When too much food is pre-
pared for meal. Unserved portions
are apt to be thrown into the garbage
pail or allowed TO spoil. Many house
keepers do not know how to use left
over foods to make appetizing dishes.
Cd When too much food Is served
at q meal. Uneaten portions are left
on the plate and later thrown into the
garbage pail Learn to know the needs
of YOUR family and serve each no more
than you think he will want.
e. When anything edible is allowed
to go to the garbage pail or allowed to
spoil for lack of proper handling.
(f) When food is handled careless
lv. Buy clean food, keep it clean until
used. and he neat in all details Of cook
ing and serving This lessons waste
and is valuable health measure as
we'll.
