 The weight of thousands of pounds of beans which the De Culda Mercan- tile company was sorting for the Uni ted States government, the. weight of the heavy machinery and the constant jarring of the machinery on the beams of the old building are said to have been the main cause of the collapse yesterday morning.

 Carlin reiterates the charge he made yesterday morning, when he said that the responsibility for the death of the women workers should be laid at the door of those who ordered the over- loading of the three floors occupied by the De Culda Merchantile company. He said yesterday:

ENTERTAINING OUR
BOYS IN TRAINING

The Y. NJ. c. A. huts and the X of
c. buildings at the different camps
show motion pictures free, says the
July Motion Picture magazine, and
the boys appreciate them so thor
cughly that every night brings a
packed house-packed beyong any
thing the people back in town have
ever witnessed. At one camp recent
ly the crowd in the hut was so tre-
mendous that, when more soldiers
attempted to squeeze in, the back
gave way. In the warmer months,
particularly in the camps not pro-
vided with wooden barracks, as is the
case with many of the national guard
camps, tents being used, and OPEN
air shows are greatly to the liking of
the soldiers. 1t is an inspiring sight
10 see thousands of eager soldiers
squatting on the ground and enjoying
the antics of Charlie Chaplin or Doug
Fairbanks. During the summer,
when the airdomes are frequented in
the city, the soldiers also go outside
to enjoy the pictures. 1t is not 4
difficult matter to rig up a screen
and project pictures by means of a
portable machine using storage bat
teries.
What do soldiers like the most?
If we were to select, off hand, the
most popular brand of pictures
among the boys in camp, we would
say Bill Hart stuff, and Fairbanks
stuff. That is to say, the men like
red-blooded, energetic Americanism,
strong, clean pictures with a punch.
They go wild when Doug, rescuing
the fair maiden, climbs up the per-
pendicular cliffs of the Grand Can
yon; they applaud until their hands
ache when Bill Hart pursues the
gambling house proprietor, who has
kidnapped the heroine, and they go
into ecstasies over the Mack Stem
nett type of rapid-fire, knockabout
comedy.

BOY SCOUTS TO WEAR
GOVERNMENT UNIFORMS

Letters and kilograms received at
national headquarters of the Boy
Scouts of America, indicate wide
spread misunderstanding concerning
the arrest of the loacl commander
and four other officers of the organ
ization styled the United States boy
scout for violating the laws by wear
ing uniforms similar to those of the
United States army. In order to
make the matter clear to the public
James e. West, chief scout executive
of the Boy Scouts of America, has
given out the following statement:
"In section 1875 of the army regu-
lation law, approved June 8, 1916,
the national guard, the boy scouts
and the naval militia are the only
three organizations specifically nam
ed as entitled to their prescribed uni
forms which are similar to those of
the United States army.
There is evidence also in mes
sages from various cities that the
United States boy scout is continuing
its appeal for funds directly ana
through the sales of cheap posters,
and that some prominent citizens
have contributed, under the false i'm
preston that they We're aiding the
real boys scouts. The public should
understand that the Boy Scout OF
America is making no national ap-
peal for funds. And if any one has
any. doubt about the genuine boy
scout uniform he can easily dispel
1t by inquiry at his local boy scout
headquarters. There he will find also
that no military titles are used by
the genuine boy scouts, nor ever have
been, whereas, there are other spas
modic boy movements in which, as
in the case of the United States Boy
Scout, titles from brigadier-general
down are used, and it is to prevent
this as well as imitation of the army
uniform that the war department il
commercially endeavoring to do"

Here and There

At this time Of extraordinary de-
mand for foodstuffs, it is deemed
patriotic duty as well as profitable
business to grow everything pos
sible in that line Just now there
is a great demand for acreage for
beans and tomatoes. 1t has been
suggested that a large quantity OF
string beans might be grown in the
corn fields. Even where the corn
has already been planted, the beans
could be planted alongside, and the
corn stalks would act as poles for
the beans. In this way the addition
al expense would be simply the cost
of planting and picking, as the culti-
walton must be given the corn any
way. The new cannery which is be-
ing established here wants all the
beans they can get, as the govern
ment demand is practically unlimited
this year. Tomatoes and berries are
also wanted in unlimited quantities.
High prices are offered for all these
products.-Roseburg Review.

lax methods of seed treatment, many
of which were not effective in con-
trolling the smut, and a great many
cases were found where the treat
ment killed the smut all, right, but
it was so effective that it killed a
large portion of the grain also.
That farmers are awaking to the
necessity for proper care in this mat
ter is attested by the following let

ologist at o. A. c., by Arthur l.. Dick

Oregon crop disease survey:
1--WE sowed some oats that was not
treated with formalin to finish n
piece and this strip was affected very
bad with smut, while the rest had
very little, if any,
eve also sowed some wheat that
had been treated couple of weeks
or more, which did not grow well.
and two or three neighbors also no
ticed that the grain that had been
treated and stood for a time did not
grow as we'll as that which was treat
ed Just before planting"

L. S. DESTROYERS
COVER MANY MILES

Some indication of the ceaceless
watch kept on the high seas, in the
path of American troop ships, by U.
s. naval forces operating in Euro
pean waters, may be gained from the
statistics just compiled at the naval
Headquarters in London. These sta
tistics show that a single force of
American destroyers operating from
one base had steamed almost 1,500,-
600 miles up to April 1. The maxi
mum distance covered by a single de-
stroyer was more than $4,000 miles
from May l, 1917, to April 1, 1918.
This destroyer was one of the first
to arrive abroad after war was de-
clared.
1t has been announced that Vice
Admiral William S. Sims, command
ing United Staes naval forces abroad,
offered to send an auxiliary force
composed of naval units to the
French front at the beginning of the
German offensive. The chief of staff
of the French navy and General Foch
did not consider that the circum-
stances demanded the presence Of
such a force at the front.
The French have had a naval di-
vision operating in the forces of the
Lorraine sector for some time, and

Straight through the bleeding heart

Hold the line, here's another lance.)

Where famlshed grannles and orphan

And human wastage with horrid rots.
