One Of the new war industries
is that of shark fishing, or to be
more precise, the fishing for
sharks. The list of casualties, it
is hoped, will be revised, i'm favor
of the hunters, since the scarcity
of leather has caused shark
skin TO become highly esteemed
as a substitute.

INTERNATIONAL
 EGG CONTEST

In the 18th week of the Storrs egg Agricultural College at Corvallis, Ore, won the 5honors for the week with remarkable yield of 63 eggs Tom Baron's White Leghorns rom Catforth, England, were second with 5S eggs and E. A. Ballard's pen of Leghorns from Chestnut Hill, Pa, were third with 56 eggs. Fourth place was captured by J. o. LeFevre's pen of Leghorns from New Paltz, N. Y.
 Not only did the Oregons take the high honors for the weekly produc- tion but they have also jumped into first place, thus taking the lead from Knights pen of Wyandottes which they have held for 23 weeks. Their lead, however is only one egg which cannot be considered very serious at the present time as there ares till IT more weeks to go. The total pro- duction for the week was 5S64 eggs, which is 1S0 less than for the pre- vious week and 59 less than for the corresponding week last year.
 Perhaps it is obvious that from now on a BrdQudl 1dIllnS OIL III pEOuOC' ton may be expected. This perhaps simply means that the poor produc- CTS in the f1ocks anticipate having a new coat of feathers. In order to keep the egg production up to its maximum yield, one should dispose of all the birds that are loafng on the job. These Ioafers can be told some what by the exteral characteristics such as molting, color of beak, legs and vent.
 Egg production may also be retard- ed by the hens being bothered with mites, for them ite season Is now at it's height. The experienced poultry man can easily detect these pests if present in large numbers. He will be aware of the fact by very pe- culiar odor. The best plan of pro- cedure at this season of the year is to carefully inspect all cracks in the roosts and also their supports and when any mites at all are found, get after them with crude carbolic and kerosene or perhaps better still with carbolineum.

CONCRETESCHEMEI
 OF EDUCATION FOR| ANzACS FORMED.

Behind the British Lines in France, July 9-A concrete scheme of educa- tional training, designed to cover all branches of the Australian forces in France, has been drawn up and is now awaiting ratification by the au- thorities. It is expected that the plan, including a regulariZed system of classes and lectures. will be put into effect behind the lines in a few weeks. Its full force, however, will only be felt after the war, during the period which must elaDse before the men can be transported back to Aus tralia. During that transition period, the Austrian force abroad will for the time be practically transformed into one great university.
 Every soldier will receive instruc- ton in certain subjects, such as the history and geogra phy of Australia, the opportunities to be found in var ious parts of the great island conti- nent, and a course in sanitation as applied to both city and country life. To help those going on leave, there will be lectures on matters of interest in Great Britain and courses in Brit isheand French history.
 But the most extensive branch of the work will be the training of all members Of the army in those sub jects necessary to equip them to enter civil life, and especially in work de- signed to give every man an oppor- tunity to become a worker in some skilled trade or calling. Agriculture, mechanics and electricity will be among the courses offered, there will also be classes in medicine, engineer ing, and various sciences. The teach ing, begun in France, will be con- tinued in depots in England and also during the journey homeward on tranSpOrts.

MORE HOSPITALS PREP AIRED FOR
 AMERICAN MEN

London, July 9.-Convalescent Am erican soldiers from the battle-fields of France and Flanders soon will be familiar sights on the streets of Lon don. Already many of the Ameri- can wounded are being cared for in hospitals here but pans are being made to bring all or practically all across the Channel.
 Those declared unfit, for further duty will be sent back to the United States as rapidly as possible and the question Of sending over for the later stages ot convalescence those whose complete restoration is certain but which will require many months, is understood to be under consideration.
 The Medical Department of the ar my took steps early this month to es- tablish two more base hospitals at English ports and to increase the fla cilities at those now in operation, and the Red Cross is preparing to open 3,000-bed hospital.
 The largest hospital now used by the American army is one in France, equipped to care for $500 patients.
 As a part of the plan for restoring the wounded in England instead of France there has been placed at the head of the American army's Medi- cal Department here a general off, cer, General Winter.
 One of the reasons for the decision to bring the American wounded here for treatment was the conviction that recovery in many cases would be has tened by the absence from the de- pressing proximity to the battle front, and that the men would become fit for active service in less time if in the environment Of a people speaking their own language.

BUY ICE BY WEIGHT.

Every housewife should have a scale and should weigh the ice i as soon as she gets it. If the weight Is short she should report it to MT. Kelly at once who will investigate the { charge.

Allies Looking
For Big Victory

Washington. Juna 2s.--Late official
dispatches received from Rome by the
Italian embassy indicate that allied
line lis keenly alive to the possibility
OF scoring general victory against
the demoralized Austrians and that a
series of strepgth testing thrusts are
being put forth against the Austrian
mountain positions
Allied army officers stated frankly
today that the time appears propitious
for a general counter-ofrensive in the
Italian front. While it Is recognized
that the Austrian leaders must be
given every opportunity to exhaust
their men by fruitless efforts to at
tempt to save the morale of their men
by sending them into action. the belief
grows that the moment has come
when the enemy could not withstand
a general assault along the entire line.
AS yet local officials have received
no official estimates of the number OF
prisoners and booty taken by the
Italian forces. In view OF previous
dispatches and the fact that at least
rs, 600 Austrians were sent across the
Piave In the original advance, II is
estimated that the losses of the Aus
TRANS will total at least $4,000.
1t Is believed that many pieces Of
light artillery also were taken by the
victors While it is possible that some
OF the heavier guns on the left bank
of the Piave may have fallen into the
hands of the cavalry sent against the
rear guard of the retreating forces.
there Is slight reason to believe now
that the Austrians have suffered ma
terial losses OF heavy ordnance.
