give the attention to proper road
Building as we do now.
Public roads have been Of uniform
width Of 66 feet and the by-roads about
40 feet. They have been too wide If
we were to judge by the condition in
which we find many Of them. Wasted
land on either side Is used only to
grow weeds.
Why not make them the width that
is used and plant trees on either side
as we have advocated in these col.
umns before? Then the thousands OF
acres Of land that are now practically
wasted could be put to some good
use.
Some Of. the Eastern railroads are
teaching US lesson in this regard
for they are farming their right-of'
way. On q recent trip East I saw
great long stretches Of land on either
side Of the railroad track planted to
alfalfa. Acres were planted to truck
gardening. I understand similar con
ditioas are to be found in some parts
iof California.
For the sake of economy in building
and upkeep let's build our roads more
marrow. Restore the acres Of valuable
land to farming. Build scientifically
constructed roads the proper width
4s1i piis-t trees on both sides.

HUSBANDS NOT SUCH BAD LOT
Stormy Days Cause Hubbies to Bs
Thoughtful of Wives Who conten,-
plato Shopping Expeditions.

Cold days stir up warm reactions
in the heart.
Remember that cold Saturday
morning when rain and snow swept
the streets?
A young married man plowea
through the gale to his Office, and,
once there, bethought himself that
his wife had declared her intention
of going down to Center Market to
purchase a rabbit for dinner that
evening.
Looking down upon storm-swept
Pennsylvania avenue, relates the
Washington Star, the loving hus-
band Immediately decided that his
wife would be foolish to go out Oh
such a bad morning, and that be
wouldn't let her 60.
'T'll just call her up and tell her
it is too bad a morning for her to
go out, when she doesn't have to, and
that I'll bring the things home my
self this evening"" he thought.
Cynical reader, this story doesn't
turn out the way you think. Truth
must often disappoint the cynic.
Fair wife did not insist on going
to market through the snow to bring
home the nice rabbit for husband to
devour. She was pleased that hus-
band was so thoughtful.
And what is more:
When the husband went to q
phone to call up his wife 10 tell her
to stay at home, he found the phone
already in use.
"Hello, Mary" said the maa on
the phone. "It's a mighty bad day,
and I think you had better not go
down town this morning"
The young husband went to use
the phone in another room. As he
walked in, he saw a comrsde at the
phone already.
Helen," the man on the phone
was saying, '1 think you had better
stay at home this morning. It's q
mighty bad day"
Husbands are a pretty decent lot
after all.

Buds and Flowers in Cooking.

The French Canadians are said to

Judas tree, in salads, while the buds
and tender pods are packed in vine

called 'honey-shucks," contain a sweet
ish, thick, cheeselike pulp, which is
often eaten. Those of the mesquite
furnish the Mexicans and Indians
with a nutritious food. The Creoles
of Louisiana, famous for their cook

EurOpe's Meat Supply Must Come
From America.
Warning Nations Have Depleted Live
Stock at Enormous fate, Fye1
Killing Dairy Cattle For Food.

American stock breeders are being
asked 70 conserve their focks and
herds In order to meet ET0pes tre-
mendous demands for meats during
tie war and probably for many years
afterwUrd.
The United States food admins
tratlon reports that American stock
ralsc"s have shown disposition to
cooperate with the government in In
creNslng the ua,ion's supply Of live
stock.
Germany today Is probably better
supplied with live stock than any 9th
or European nation When the Ger
man armies made their big advance
into Trauce and thea rctreated yir-
tuallT all the cattle in the Invaded
territory - approximately 100000
hcad--were driven behind the German
lines
But in l5ngland-where 100000
acres Of pasture lands have been turn
cd into grain liclds--the cattle herds
ore decreasing rapidly. One Of the
reasons apparently Is the declining
maximum price scale adopted by the
English as follows For September,
$17.70 per 100 pounds; October, SIZES !;
November and December, $16.0S; Jan
larry, $14.40 The effect Of these prices
was to drive beef. animals on the mar
ket rs soon as possible.
In France the number Of cattle as
well as the quality have shown an
enormous decline during the war.
Where France had 14S07,000 head of
cattle in 1913, she now has only 12,-
81 900, O decrease of 1915 per cent.
And France Is today producing only
one gallon Of milk compared to two
and one-half gallons before the war.
Denmark and Holland have been
forced to sacrifice dairy herds for beef
because Of the lack Of necessary feed.
Close study of the European meat
situation has convinced the Food Ad-
minlstration that the future problem
of America lies largely In the produc-
ton of meat producing animals and
dairy products rather than in the pro
ductlon of cereals for export when
the war will have ceased.

Wagner Creek Active
In Red Cross Work

While all are doing our bit to win
the war, Jackson county can we'll be
proud of Wagner Creek district.
The Junior Red Cross, together
with the Women's Auxiliary, have
been doing their part from time to
time, but on last Saturday evening,
June l, a program was rendered
which brought exceedingly good re-
suits. The program consisted of a
play entitled "The Country Postof-
fice," and given by the local people.
Although this is busy season near
ly every evening for the past two
week was spent in practice. The
scene was taken from a country post
office, where gossip is plenty, but
lasting impression are made, which
are applicable for today Everybody
had good laugh and everybody was
well pleased.
At the close of the play, announce
ment was made that hen and seven
chickens had been raffled off. and
the drawing was to take place at
once. The hen was purchased from
the proceeds of the sale of some Junk
which the Junior Red Cross had gath
|
cred up. Then the school children
each brought an egg, and the hen
was set. She hatched nine chicks
and raised seven. They were fed with
crumbs from the children's lunch
pals. The proceeds from the rattle
amounted to $2S.41. Miss Edith An
derson of the Talent Merchantile Co.,
drew the lucky number, but very
kindly donated the hen and chickens
back to the Red Cross for auction.
Mr.. Goddard acted as auctioneer. and
the hen and each chick were sold
separately not only once but the bid
[ders turned them back for other bids.
The chickens are now enjoying 4
peaceable rest at the home of G.. C.
Griffin of Medford. The auction sale
amounted to $11.25, making a total
of 1886 to the credit of the hen
and chickens The sum of s15.4O
was received from admissions to the
play. In all, S55.O6 was the amoun.
given to the Red Cross.
For several reasons no special ex-
! ercises were held for the Sth grade
graduates, so at the close of the Red
Cross meeting, G. c. Griffin, in the
absence of Principal Wheeler, made
a few kind remarks and presented
the diplomas.
