FOR FUEL
is NOT NECESSARY

Portland, May 6.-As result, Of
strong representations by Fuel Ad-
ministrator Holmes of Oregon, fuel
consumers of the state will not be
compelled to make written applica-
ton for wood and coal supplies, as
previously announced.
Holmes took the stand that Ore
gonians are being encouraged to lay
in ample supplies early, and he con-
sidered that enforcement of the ap-
plication blank order was an unnec-
essary inconvenience to the public
and a useless expense to fuel deal
ers.
He laid his case before the nation
al fuel administration and has just
received a wire from Washington,
stating that a special ruling will be
made for Oregon, although the regu-
lation will be enforced in all other
states, saving possibly other north
western states.
Advices from Washington to Mr..
Holmes indicates that conditions
point to another fuel shortage this
coming winter unless consumers lay
in their supplies now. The congested
condition of the transportation sys-
TENS is compelling slow movements
in this regard.

GARDENERS WARNED
AGAINST DISEASES

Corvallis, May Cit is unwise and
oftern unsafe to plant any crop on the
same spot where that crop was
grown last year on account Of the
fungous parasites which may have
got start on that crop last year
and remain in the soil to infect the
new crop more actively than before
with resulting losses in yield and
quality, says Prof. H. p Barss of the
o. A. G.
Nearly all crops have their spe-
cial diseases which do not attack
other crops, therefore, it is safe, for
example, to plant beans following po-
tatoes or corn following beans, etc.
Tomatoes, however. are so closely
related to potatoes that they have
many of the same diseases as potatoes
and therefore should not follow pota-
toes on the same ground.
Each home gardener is helping to
win the war. Crop pests side with
the enemy. 1t is the duty of every
food raiser to use every available
method of fighting these pests and
crop rotation is one of the simplest
and most effective ways of avoiding
many of them.

APPOINTED WORKER
FOR COTTAGE CHEESE

The bureau of animal industry of
the United States department or agri-
culture has named Miss Genevieve
Fotter, Of Port Washington, New
York, home economics graduate of
the o. A. C., to encourage in Oregon
the production Of cottage cheese on
farms and also to stimulate it use
in homes.
The work in Oregon will be part
of the department of agriculture S
national campaign, in cooperating
with the United States food admins
tration. to encourage the use, as we'll
as the production of cottage cheese,
which experiments by the department
have shown is equal in food value to
meat.
Cottage cheese can be made from
skim milk or buttermilk now largely
wasted or fed to animals, and its ex-
tended use is expected to save a large
amount of meat which can be used by
the armies and allies of America.

WHAT BOY SCOUTS DO
IN WINNING THE WAR

When the United States entered
the world war, the question natural
ly arose, what will the boy scouts
do?"
The boy scouts of America prompt
ly answered that question. Thousands
of scouts who had reached an age
at which they we're eligible for mill
tary service enlisted Immediately.
The scout leaders who were not in
position to serve their country in
the army, navy or some other branch
of the government Loyalty committed
themselves to the plans formulated
by national headquarters for starting
of war gardens, for increasing food
production on farms, for an emer-
gency coast patrol service which
could be placed at the disposal of the
navy department Immediately on re-
quest, for the sale of Liberty bonds
and war savings stamps, for the dis
tribution of literature issued by the
committee on public information, and
for any and all services desired by
our government.
The fundamental policy of the boy
scout movement has not been al
tered. 1t has proven it adaptibility
to war conditions. The service of
scouts and scout officials who have
entered the army and navy has dem
onstrated the value of the boy scout
training. In cases too numerous to
mention these men have received
commissions and have been assigned
to technical work which could not
be done by men who lacked the train
ing which scouts receive.
The enormous increase in the men,
bership of the boy scouts of America
since the beginning of the war shows
that the boys of America appreciate
the fact that the boy scout program
gives them their best opportunity for
serving the nation in its greatest hour
of need.

MAKES STATEMENT
on LIBERTY LOAN

Portland, May 6.-Some misappre-
hension regarding the word "converti-
bility", used in connection with the
Third Liberty loan bonds, seems to
have arisen in the minds of the pub
lie, according to letters received at
State Liberty Loan headquarters,
some persons confusing the term with
negotiability.
Edward Cookingham, state execu-
tive chairman, gave out the follow
ing statement, regarding the mean
ing of the words:
81 would like to make it plain to
all purchasers of bonds that the
Third Liberty loan bonds are both
negotiable and transferable and in
that respect do not differ at all from
the first and second issues of Lib
erty bonds.
"The word 'convertibility' has no
reference whatever to the negotiable
ity of the bonds. This particular is
sue is not convertible into any other
bonds which may be issued later in
the war, but that does not mean that
the bonds are not negotiable or trans
ferable or deliverable in the freest
possible manner at any time and to
any persons who may purchase the
bonds or to whom the holder may
desire to transfer them"
Official pamphlets containing de-
tailed Information regarding Third
Liberty loan bonds may be had from
the State Liberty Loan headquarters,
222 Northwestern Bank building,
Portland, for the asking.

The fire had it's origin in the

through the partition walls both

OUR AMERICAN BOYS
IN FRANCE.

George W. Titus, Y. M. c. A.
worker, tells on his return from
France, of the fighting spirit of
our American boys.
He says "Our boys are so willing
to give up the rest and easy time
which they have earned by hard
work in the trenches that they very
often remain at the front and go
into action with relief units, some
times French or British troops,
days after they should have been
in leave camp recuperatiDg for
another tour of duty at the front.
At scissors many wounded men
came back to our field hospital
after their own units had retired
to the rear.
It is difficult to understand
how this could happen unless one
had seen how our fighting men
may become separated from their
units IN hard battles. They go
over the top together but after
that anything may happen. Thus
it may turn out that when units
are withdrawn to make way for
relief forces, small groups will be
come detached from their own
companies. While waiting around
tor some Of their fellows the lure
Of the battle will become 80 strong
that they rush back into action
with units that they have never
seen before.
''In one instance where it was
necessary to divide a company
that was scheduled for leave and
detail half of the men for reserve
duty, the captain stated the case
briefly and asked for volunteers.
Every man in the company volun-
teered for the service that would
keep him near the front.
At Cantigny, men were coming
out of action practically shot to
pieces. But as they lay on their
cots in the field hospital they
joshed and laughed in spite of the
pain they suffered.
CAT one time q wounded man
would groan as a sudden pain
