The Final Drive
In Greene County

The final drive for War Savings
Stamps in Greene county will be held
next Sunday afternoon at 2:SO
O'Clock in all districts that have failed
to subscribe their quota. AT that
time everyone who has not subscribed
or who has subscribed an inadequate
amount will be given an opportunity
to subscribe sufficiently to make their
district go over the top. Greene
county's quota must be finished by
the first day Of August. There is
now pledged in the county $48O,00O,
or about eighty percent of Greene
county's quota. After August LIST,
all persons who are able to subscribe
and have not done so, and all those
who have subscribed an inadequate
amount, will be placed on the Stacker
list, which list will be forwarded to
Mr.. Preston, state director, and after
investigation by him and after he is
satisfied that they are genuine slack
ers, will be published in the local
county papers, and the papers will
be sent to every soldier who has gone
out of Greene county, either to the
camps in this country or to the fight
ing trenches in France. No injustice
will be done to any one, and no one
will be placed on the Stacker list who
is unable TO buy War Stamps. Every
one who has bought stamps or pledged
to buy to the limit Of his or her
ability will be placed on the honor
roll of the government. The COM
mittees will be careful to do no one
an injustice, but it is their duty, and
they cannot avoid it, to put every
one on the Stacker list who has failed
or refused to do his part. They have
no discretion in the matter.
Everybody is expected to attend
these meetings and help put their
district over, even though they have
already subscribed all they are re-
quired to do. Greene county must
not fail in this hour of the nations
trial. Take notice Of the meetings
and govern yourself accordingly.

SEED TESTING ADVISED
BY STATION SPECIALIST

Rather than take the chance of
planting pure or impure seed many
Oregon farmers are planning to have
their seed tested this year. The
practise has already been followed
with success In many dictricts, but
is unusually necessary this year due
to high prices and scarcity of seed.
This scarcity indicates the need
OF planting none but the best pure
seed of high vitality. To assure this
the seed must be tested for purity
and germination. Farmers not In a
position TO make this test themselves
are invited to send samples of the
seed to the testing laboratory of the
Agricultural College and u. s. De-
partment of Agriculture, at Corvallis
ore. Every citizen OF Oregon. Wash
ington, Idaho, Montana and Wyoming
Is entitled to send his seed for free
test by an expert. The report will
show the percent of purity. noxious
weeds, inert matter--sticks, dirt
chair. etc,--and the kind and number
per pound OF each weed seed.
Samples should be taken In such
manner as to be representative. In
sampling sack of grain part should
be taken from the top. part from the
middle and part from the bottom OF
the sack. These samples should be
thoroughly mixed and small test
sample taken. This Is to be labeled
and mailed to the College seed tsting
laboratory.

/ FEW FACTS ABOUT FAMOUS
MARGUERITE CLARK

! Marguerite Clark's father was q
prominent merchant of Cincinnati
Ohio, while her mother was one OF
the social leaders OF that city. None
: of her relatives had ever been on the
professional stage and II is q perpet-
uai wonder to Miss Clark herself
how she came by her love OF the
stage and drama, and most espec-
tally the motion picture.
She went to convent In Ohio
after her mother and father died
and It was there and under the tutel-
age of and older sister that she re-
worked In few amateur plays and
made such remarkable reputation
for herself that her fame spread
throughout the middle west
Later Miss Clark made her debut
in musical comedy and thence went
to the drama. Some of the better
known stage productions In which
Miss Clark was seen In the early
part of her career are: Jim the Pen
man" Baby Mime" affairs of An
tole" and Snow White"
The latter production was taken
as basis for one of Miss Clark's
most famous moving pictures later In
her career. Other pictures In which
the charming little actress has ap-
peared are: "Wildflower," "rhe
Crucible." "The Goose Girl" "Gret-
ma Green" pretty Sister OF Jose"
Seven Sisters, "Still Waters" "The
Prince and the Pauper," Mice ana

As a patriot, Miss Clark has no
rivals. for she mas already knitted

HEAT RESTRICTIONS nEiltlasED
y'OR THE PRESENT BY THE FOOD
ADMINISTRATION

The United States Food Admins

Southwest. which also affects Mon
tsna and certain areas In adjacent
States in the Northwest, Is endanger-
ing the meat herds In these great
cattle producing sections Az an
immediate result the present cattle
runs are so percent heavier than In
the corresponding period OF last year.
The larger part of this stock is below
the most desirable market weights
and would normally remain on the
ranges until II had attained larger
growth. SO far as &practicabe these
cattle are being moved to sections
where conditions of grass, grain,
and water are more favorable. The
surplus must, however, be handled.
The Food Administration, there
fore, is for the present releasing the
meat restrictions. This Is about one
month earlier than was originally
contemplated. 1t is desired. however
TO continue the same careful regard
for economy in beef and In all essen
tial food as measure to safeguard
the future.
There is always liberal run of
tie lighter cattle at this season of
the year, but the present supply is
excessive. Practically all OF the
heavier and fatter cattle are more
Deaded for export purposes for our
own armed forces and those of our
allies because, on account OF their
thickness and fatty covering. they
are less subject to deterioration dur
ing transfer from cars to ships and
freezers when they are not protected
by refrigeration.
In resembling regulations which !
prohibited public eating places from
serving beef more than once day |
and in releasing the householders !
from their voluntary agreement to |
c0rtan purchases to u pounds per |
week including bone. the Food Ad- |
Bninistration requests that this freer .
use of beef be restricted so far "a
practicable TO the cattle which dress I
under AIS pounds. To achieve this
the retail meat markets are asked to
specialize in the use of these lighter
cattle and families and patrons OF
ali public eating places are requested
10 patriotically accept beef OF this
weight, even though they have hereto
fore been accustomed to using the
heavier beef only.
The desire of the Food Admins
tration at present is not primarily to
whole, but to induce preference In
the consumption of beef as
favor of the lighter weight cattle. OF
which we have an abnormal surplus.
This will bring about conservation
Of the heavier cattle needed for our
and for export to our allies.

of shooting Ida.

FEARED NEW QUARTER BOGUS
Coin Of Recent Vintage Caused BaIti.
more Business Houses to Make
Hurried Investigation.

In the future Uncle Sam should Ger.
tainly notify Baltimore in advance
when he is going to spring a new coin,
for the appearance of a new quarter
of the vintage of 1917, which differs
slightly from the first issue, has
caused anxiety to q number of good
Baltimoreans because they thought
they were "stung." Rumors that coun.
terfeiters were flooding the city with
"phony" money naturally followed,
states the Baltimore Evening Sun.
The new coin arrived u]nannounced
and it IA not long before experts no.
ticed the slight difference between II
and the first issue of the 1917 quarter,
and then they got busy. The most per-
sistent rumor was that counterfeiters
were plying their trade in Baltimore
and that many Of the large business
houses, the United Railways and the
public in general had been Caught"
for hundreds of dollars. On the old
quarter there are nc stars under the
eagle, while on the new coin there are
three. There are seven stars on one
side of the eagle and six on the other
on the coins Of the first issue, while
the bird on the new coin is flanked by
only five stars on each side with three
underneath. The milling on the new
coin Is different from the old and the
"In God We Trust" on the one is much
larger than on the other.
The su%btreasury has had a number
of inquiries about the coin, and a half
dozen banks which were consulted had
also been asked TO express an opinion
rs to whether it was good or not, and
they all vouch for it. The whole trou-
bic seems to be that the new coin was
sprung OF Baltimore without notice.
