MORE SUGAR

The United States department OF
Agriculture has sent out an urgent
appeal for an increase in the produc-
ton Of sugar. II urges an increase
in the sugar output to the very lin
II which the seed supply and farm
and factory conditions will permit.
Sugar. an important food In time
Of peace, is doubly so in time of war.
both because Of the energy contained
in a pound OF sugar as compared with
pound OF other foods, and because
modern warfare has developed a
number OF additional uses for sugar.
The man who grows a good acreage
OF sugar beets this year is perform
ing a patriotic service.
The department asks that excep-
tional attention be given to beet cul-
ture in those districts where the
factory capacity is available such as
southern Oregon. Owing to the fact
that these districts are limited and
that sugar beets can be grown to ad-
vantage only near such factories. II
is suggested that other staples be
made to take second place by the
farmers OF those districts.
The sugar beet by-products. tops
and pulp, are of high value for stock
feeding purposes. Arrangements
should be made. therefore. to uti-
lize the sugar beet by-products as ar
aid in producing an extra supply o.
meat and dairy products. Ever,
pound of beet tops or pulp utilized
for stock feed will save a certain
amount OF grain and other feed re
quired for meat and dairy animals
or will increase the meat and mea
products output II properly used.

CHANGES ARE MADE
UNIVERSITY Of 0.

Eugene, Ore, June THE Uni
versity OF Oregon has substituted the
three-term plan for the two-term
semester scheduled hitherto in use
and will open next fall October /. in
stead OF in the middle of September
as formerly. This course was taken
by the faculty in line with recommen-
dations made by the council Of ma
tional defense to the university presi-
dents in session in Washington a few
weeks ago.
The change is being made to af-
ford opportunity for men engaged In
productive labor during the summer
and fall. particularly farming. to
complete two-thirds OF years uni
versity work without loss OF credit
and still have half the year to devote
to their outside occupation. The
summer school will continue as In
the past. on the basis Of half col
lege quarter.
Another idea which President
Campbell brought back from the
meeting OF university presidents is
that OF urging undergraduates be-
low military-service age and Others
not engaged in national defense to
continue their work in their respec-
tive colleges. High school gradu-
ates not affected by the draft are
encouraged to enter college with a
view OF fitting themselves for a
higher grade OF service than would
be possible TO them were they to en-
ter any military army without fur
ther training than that received in
the secondary schools.
The university next term will have
full courses In both military drill and
tactics and the various scientific
subjects connected with the wagine
OF modern warfare. A drill hall will
be erected during the summer.

TRY II! SUBSTITUTE FOR NASTY CALOMEL Starts your liver without making you sick and can not
 saliyate.

Every druggist in town-your drug gist and everybody's druggist has noticed great falling-off in the sale of calomel. They all give the same reason. Dodson's Liver Tone is taking it's place.
 "Calomel is dangerous and people know it, while Dodson's Liver Tone is perfectly safe and gives better results." said a prominent local druggist. Dodson's Liver Tone is personally guaranteed by every druggist who sells it. A large bottle costs 50 cents, and if it fails to give easy relief in every case of liver sluggishness and constipation, you have only to ask for your money back.
 Dodson's Liver Tone Is a pleasant -tast- ing, purely vegetable remedy, harmless to both children and adults. Take a spoonful at night and wake up feeling fine; no biiousness, sick headache, acid stomach or constipated bowels. It doesn't gripe or cause inconvenience all the next day like violent calomel. Take dose of calomel today and tomorrow you will feel weak, sick and nauseated. Don't lose days work Take Dodson's Liver Tone instead and feel fine, full of vigor and ambition.
