Mentally Unbalanced Man
Creates Small Disturbance

Yelling at the top of his voice con-
demning to perdition the people of
Salem ard especially the driver of the
stage auto to Silverton, and all others
in authority, Lawrence Van Vert, who
said he was on his way to Silverton,
succeeded in attracting an interested
audience this morning about 7 o'clock
at the Oregon Electric depot.
He was so emphatic and loud in de-
nouncing everything, in sight that he
also attracted the attention of an Of
ficer. However, before the arrival of
said officer, having had his say, Van
Vert walked west on Commercial
street and later made no objections to
accompanying the officer to the police
station.
DR.. O. B. Miles was called in and
in his talk Van Vert insisted that sey-
eral mediums were after him. He also
told Chief j. A. Poland that medipms
had been troubling him for some timc,
ever since he had come from Sheridan.
As DIR. Miles was inclined to regard
the man as somewhat off his mental
balance, lefore taking further action,
his case win be referred TO County
Judge Bushey.

field agent of the Bureau of Entomolo-
gy. Mr.. Black is cooperating with the

ity several days collecting specimen.
His advice to cherry owners is to pick
the crop as soon as possible especial
ly the Lamberts and other late varieties,
While 1t is too late this year to spray
for the cherry maggot fly, Mr.. Black
says it might be well to remember that
a poison bait spray of sodium arsen
ate and brown sugar swestening is the
best solution of the fly problem. II
should be applied just when the cherries
are beginning to soften and the spray
should be on tho leaves just enough to
attract the fly.

HIGHWAY COMMISSION
POSTPONES PAVEMENT
Salem-Aurora Road Will Not
Be Improved During
This Year

The Pacific highway from Salem to
Aurora will not be paved. This paving
project has been indefinitely postponed
by the state highway commission.
A meeting of the highway commission
was held in Portland yesterday when
bids for this paving were opened. After
the bids were opened the commission an
nounced that because of war conditions
it would Indefinitely postpone all new
paving projects, except one, in the state,
The one new project of which the
commission makes an exception is on
the Columbia river highway, between
Hood River and Mosier.
The Salem-Aurora project was a post
road project, for which final approve
ment had been obtained from the gov
ernment, which was to put up dollar
for dollar with the state.
This is the first and only post road
project which has been approved by
the government. With its indefinite
postponement, it will mean there will
be no post road funds spent in the
state until after the war.
The state highway commission will be
unable to use for any other purpose the
post road money obtained by the sale Of
bonds under the Bean-Barrett law. The
commission sold 100000 of bonds, re-
!ceiving approximately $3Ss,OOO fol-
them. This money is now on hand. What
the commission win do with it is not
known at this time. 1t may be the COM
mission will ask authority from the neIt
| Legislature to invest the money in Liber
ty bonds.
Three bids were received on the Sa.
lem Aurora job, which covered dis
tancc Of about IS miles. Two bids were
| from the Warren Construction company
One provided for laying a bitulitiic
pavement on a gravel bituminous base
for $403, ,453, and the other provided fol
the same kind of pavement on a new
macadam base for $421 ,438.
The third bid was from the Burrel
Engineering & Construction company
and was an offer to lay cement concrete
pavement on basis Of cost plus Is pei
cent.
These bids were in excess of the en-
gineer's estimate, which was approxim
ately $960,000.
To pave the highways ON which grad
ing already has been commenced, the
commission will ask the Capital Issues
Committee for authority to sell $500,
600 more of the $6,0OO,O00 bond issue.
The commission has now received au
thority to sell 100000 of these bonds
Bids for this sale will be opened July
9.
After its meeting yesterday, the com
mission issued the following statemnt
At its meeting today the Oregon
state highway commission rejected al
bids on the paving work contemplated
between Aurora and Salem and com
mitted itself to the completion only Of

PERFECT WOMANHooD

Perfect womanhood depends on per-
feet health. Beauty and good dispo-
sition both vanish before pain and
suffering. A great menace to womans
happiness in life is the suffering that
comes from some functional derange-
ment which soon develops sheadaches,
backache, nervousness and the
blues" For such suffering, women
find help in that famous old root ~nd
herb remedy, Lydia 3. Pinkham 8
Vegetable Compound, which for three
generations has been restoring health
to women Of America.

The ong drought now taxes the old
timers to remember the time when Sa-
lem and vicinity experienced such a
dry spell. Some of the pioneers who
have been here 40 or 80 years cannot
remember of such a drought. The last
precipitation that looked anything like
shower in Salem was May 10 when
there was only five hundredths of an
inch of rain. The river today is three
tenths of an inch below zero. something
quite unknown for Salem at this time
of the year. One year ago at this date
the guage read AZ feet above zero and
two years ago for the same date, the
river was 2.S feet above.
