WARNS PEOPLE OF ATROCITIES
HUNS COMMIT.

Warning OF the atrocities, "horrl-
BILE, brutal, beastly, and consistent
iy Official" that American soldiers
soon will be suffering at the hands
OF Germany's inhuman army, was
voiced In an address here Wednesday y
night by Major Grayson p. Murphy.
formerly In charge OF the American
Red Cross work in France. who re-
turned to this country Sunday. Maj
Murphy resigned from the Red Cross
to join the starr or General Pursuing,
says a New York dispatch.
II cannot describe the horrible
things that Germany has done to
women and children and the poor,
old suffering people In counries
where she has set her dreadful foot"
Major Murphy said, British offic-
ers told OF scores OF wounded Eng
lish soldiers piled In heaps aud then
bombarded with hand grcnades. II
Will be but a short time before our
boys are going to suffer those same
things. You have got to build. and
sacrifice, no matter what It costs to
beat that beast"
Building up the spirit OF the peo-
pie behind the lines In Europe Is the
great work OF the Red Cross, the
speaker declared. Contributors to
the Red Cross In this country have
thus become one OF the largest fac
tors I'm the war. he said.
"Up TO this day. Germany Ia VIC
torious In this war" Major Murphy
continued. ANY peace that is made
on the basis OF todays conditions
would be practically a complete vic !
tory for Germany and for the German
Idea. Germany has lost nothing In
this war but blood. She has fought !
80 far on the territory OF others. She |
has drawn from the territory OF
others vast supplies OF materials and .
vast sums of money. She has had
between 100000 and 5O.OO0.OOO
people working for her for practic- /
ally no really as slaves. She
has established her cursed hold on
Austria. on Turkey and on Bulgaria,
aud she has at her feet murdered
Serbia and unfortunate Rumania.
IAN English woman told me that \
when there was threat OF German
Invasion. the women carried poison l
about them to save themselves from
what they would face II German
troops landed"

OREGON POULTRYMEN WANT
CHEAPER POULTRY FEED.

Oregon poultrymen want TO help
Uncle Sam win the war by growing
more poultry and feeding less wheat
as he requests them to do. but they
also say that they need little help
In return. The Oregon Poultry
Producers Association at Farmers
Week passed resolutions to this ef-
feet and sent copies to headquarters
at Washington.
They have been asked to double
the production of poultry and eggs
during the coming year and are viii
Ing to do so whether they make mon
ey or not As Prof. Dryden told
them. II is not now as formerly a
purely business proposition in which
they should grow only so many
chicks as could be raised at a pro-
fit. Patriotism must be mixed with
business. And they agreed.
But they are also asked to use but
ten percent OF wheat In their feeds,
anu 'hio ~ NHtIc lHey Hctu nelp.
Corn, barley, oats and kaffir are the
usual substitutes for wheat. but corn
cannot be had at all at fair price
and the other grains are scarce and
high and going higher. Bran and
shorts are hard to get and of poor
quality although the fixed price on
these by the Government is reason
able.
The Oregon poultrymen want to
get corn prices fixed at reasonable
figures and supply placed on the
market. Some such provision is alb
solutely necessary If they are able to
follow the administrations program.
The Government was also petition
ed to increase the number OF eggs
in army ratlons In the United States
to help offset the high grain cost as
well as save red meat for shipment

sTOCK-KILLING ANIMALS.

A single wolf In Colorado took a
toll of nearly $4,000 worth OF cattle
in one year; In Texas. 2 wolves kill
ed 70 sheep valued at 50 each during
u period OF two weeks; In Oregon. 4
coyote In two nights killed 10 pure
bred rams valued at $40 each; and 1
bobcat In New Mexico In one month
killed 53 lambs, eve. and goat
belonging to single ranchman.
These points are bought out In re-
port on the work OF the Bureau of
Biological Survey OF the United
States Department of Agriculture for
the fical year ended June 80. 1917.
The destruction OF such stock
killing animals has dlresct bearing
on the increased production and CON
servation of the Nations food sup
ply, Their control means that stock
and poultry raising can be conduct
ed with safety. and with this In view
the bureau employs force OF 175
to 300 hunters and trappers who
hunt these animals. They accept no
bounties from any source. all skins
OF animals taken becoming tho pro-
perty OF the Government. Last year
the proceeds from this source
amounted to approximately $4,000.
During the year 30.512 predatory
animals were taken. including 556
wolves, 22,342 coyotes. 107 noun
tain lions. 3,053 bobcats. and co
bears. Bears are generally consider
ed game animals and are not molest-
ed by the predatory-animal hunters
except In cases of individuals known
to have the habit OF killing stock. In
addition to the capture OF animals
by means OF traps and shooting, ex-
tensive poisoning campaigns were
conducted. and II Is conservatively
estimated that at least 75 900 preda-
toy animals were destroyed In this
manner.
As result of this destruction OF !
stock-killing animals large saving
of cattle sheep, goats. horses. swine, |
and poultry has been affected. In ad- /
dition to reducing greatly the danger /
to human life from rabies. Stock /
men have shown much interest in the /
work and in numerous instances
have contibuted funds for co-opera-
tion, The States OF Nevada, Utah.
and Washington are also co-opcrat-
ing, having appropriated substantial
sums for the purpose.
The damage done by predatory
animals has been increased by the |
prevalence among them OF rabies.
This disease spreads from the point
OF origin In Oregon into the States
of Nevada. California, Idaho. and
Utah. Cattle and sheep were destroy
ed In large numbers and hundreds OF |
persons were bitten. As a result OF
the campaign conducted by the
bureau in cooperation with local
authorities and stockmen. the spread
Of the disease has been checked and I
have been greatly inprov-
ed II is believed that with the con
tinuance OF the work complete eradi-
cation of this alarming disease
among the wild animals OF the af- !
fected States can be accomplished.
