PLAN VACANT LOT
SPRING GARDEN DRIVE
Federal Food Administration
Expects to Exceed Last
Years Success

The United States food administra-
tion is planning another "vacant lot
garden" drive for this spring, and ex-
poets to at least equal the success Of
the campaign last year, according to a
circular received by the Salem Com
mercial club. In addition, another con-
drive is being planned for
the distribution of kitchen cards, a
quantity of which have been received
by the Commercial club. The date for
the latter drive has not been set, but
will be in the near future.
According to the circular received
here, every vacant lot can produce $40
in vegetables. The use of every vacant
lot in Oregon for that purpose would
make an enormous saving in cars
which could be used in shipping
spruce, steel, and fuel, and which now
carry Oregon IS food.
According to the kitchen cards, o
slight change will be made in regard
to meatless" days Two wheatless
days, Monday and Wednesday, are
asked, and one wheatless meal in each
day. Every Tuesday is to be a meat
less day, and one meatless meal each
day is asked. Tuesdady and Saturday
is designated as porkless dady.
Every day is labeled as "fat-sav-
ing" dax and "sugar saving" day
America wastes two and q half times
as much fat as it uses, and about
twice as much sugar as is used. Less
sweet drinks and candy should be
used. and boiled food should replace
fried stuff wherever practical.

were today sentenced to 80 days in the

investigation. One of the men is alleged
to be a draft evader.
Evidence for the state consisted large
ly of letters found upon the men. In
these, plans for work to disorganize
the Loyal Legion Of Lumbermen and
Loggers, patriotic society formed by
the signal corps to meet such efforts
were discussed and the advisability of
sending a japanese organizer to camps
employing japanese help was discussed.
1t has not been smooth shedding for
the "wobbly" organizers, according TO
the letters introduced. In these, several
men complain of the steady refusal Of
the "slaves" as they term patriotic
loggers, to listen to criticism of the gov
ernment. Grays Harbor and Marshfield
camps are listed as especially tough ON
spreaders of sedition.

secured this year as the amount ap-
propriated for road work in the San
tam forest is disposed of otherwise.
The Detroit road districts, however,
will probably start work, as they have
around $4,000 which may be used for
the purpose. The road from Niagra to
Detroit will cost about $4,000 it is
believed
The most of the money will be spent
in the gorge which starts about three
miles above Niagra and extends for
three miles up to the forest reserve
line. The railroad is built on the wa
ter level, and it will be necessary to
build the road higher in order to get
through. The remainder of the road
presents but few difficulties and can
be constructed at nominal cost.
The present trail to Detroit is not
passable to automobiles, although it is
better than the average mountain
trail The plans call for the widening
of this trail, for the most part, al

though different route will be found
In some places.
The road from Detroit to Breiten-
bush, if built, will be paid for by pri-
vate capital, and will be for the pur-
pose of opening the springs up to the
public. The hot springs can only be
reached by pack horses at present, and
it is planned to build a wagon foad to
connect with the railroad to Detroit.
An improvement of the plant at Brett
enbush is also thought probable.
The road from Niagra to Detroit will
probably be finished within five
years, it was stated by Judge Bushey.
Lack of funds will prevent the job
from being finished up sooner, but it
is thought it can be finished in that
time by using the district road money,
and with the assistance of the forest
reserve

Soldiers Fail to- Salute
Nearly Face COurlmartial

An unexpected compliment was paid
by captain in the regular army to
the make up of the soldiers used by
Director Cliff Smith in his latest Tri-
angle drama, "Thc Learnin' of Jim
Benton" in which Roy Stewart, the
cowboy star plays the title role. The
captain was visitor at the Triangle
Culver City studios while the picture
was being made and saw the soldiers
loitering about the stage. Taking them
for regulars, the officer grew quite
wrathful when they failed to salute
him and demanded to know the reason
1t was then that he learned from
his escort that they were extra men
made up for the picture and waiting
for Director Smith to use them.
FfJust tell them how narrowly they
missed the guard house" was the cap
tain S parting shot This picture will
be shown at the Liberty theater on

You can best Hiage a man by his
standing In his home town. You
can judge Mr.. McKeever by what the

McKeeyer himself. McKeever Is
going to have the open and loyal
support OF the best men in this part

bic one the party could name,
