|DR. TALLMANRETURNs
FROM CAMP Pike, ARK.
Well Known Physician Who
Spent 1 Months in Service
Will Resume Practice Here
Qualified as Heart Spe-
cialist.

DIR. M. II. Tallman, who IA months

tice in southern Idaho, answering his
countrys call for medical men, has
returned from Camp Pike, Ark, where
he gave 10 months service. with So

making examinations of the men called
for oversee service.
Upon leaving Boise Dr. Tallman en-
tered the medical officers training
camp at Fort Riley, Kan, where he
spent three months. He qualified as
sent to Camp Pike, Ark, the largest
camp in the south. At this camp he
was promoted to a captaincy and plac-
ed in charge of cardio vascular exam
nations and during the period of de-
mobilization was the chief medical
examiner of the camp.
1t was at Camp Pike, stated Dr.
Tallman, that large portion of the
oversee men were given their final
examination before departing. They
were examined in every detail the GA
specialists detailed for this work con-
sistinS of every branch of the medical
profession, from insanity experts to
lOoL experts. IL was necessary TO
make minute examinations as Uncle
Sam wanted only the men physically
and mentally capable to handle the big
problem to be given them at the
front, stated the physician. During
his service at the camp DIR. Tallman
personally examined 10000 men, giy-
ing them the heart tests and a careful
examination to ascertain if their chief
organ of life was such as to stand
the great strain of warfare.
Dr. Tallman says he Is glad to have
been able to give his services to his
country but regrets that he was not
able to get across before the end came.
He will soon resume his medical prac-
tice. He left Saturday night for Port
land and Seattle to purchase entirely
new office equipment. The war, he
states, had brought out for the medical
profession, as we'll as in industrial
lines, new and better equipment in the
way of Instruments, X-ray machine,
etc, and as this new equipment is now
available, he intends equipping as fine
offices as can be found in the nodth-
west. lie has rented suite in the
Idaho building which he expects to oc-
cupy about May 1.

the interests of developing it's hidden

This bureau, created by an act of
the last session of the Legislature, has
$50 900 at it's command for conducting
Investigations of the mineral wealth
in promising localities during the next
two year. The bureau is to cooperate
with the United States bureau Of
mines. One half the amount oppropri-
ated is to be expected for cooperation
with this bureau, which is to spend n
like sum. Ten thousand dollars will
be expended in co cooperation work with
the United States geological survey,
which is also to eXpend a like amount.
Five thousand dollars is appropriated
solely for the purpose of making in
Nestigations of the mineral resources
of the state. These Investigations arc
TO be conducted in localities where 4
limited amount of mining has been
carried on in districts where good
showings have been made. Reports on
these districts will be given to the
public from time to time and they will
be made by expert mining engineers

Fruit Crop to be
a Record Breaker

In recent summing up OF the
crop outlook OF the Rogue River val
ley County Agricultural Agent Cate
says: +.
THE fruit crop, including pears,
apples, peaches, apricots, prunes will
break the record, being far In ex-
cess of 1918, which was the banner
year heretofore. The pears, espec'
tally, are the best in quality and size
for years. -
1.-The present outlook is that be-
tween 700 and 500 carloads of pears
will be shipped from the valley, and
from 500 to 600 carloads Of apples
The bean crop in the Rogue River
and Winner sections looks fine and
the outlook for a fine and heavy
crop of tomatoes is good. The fall
grain is the best in years, but the
spring grain is only fair.

Deer Season Will
Open September !

Four weeks from last Monday, the
deer season will open, both in dis
trict 1 and district 2, into which the
state is divided by the State Fish
and Game commission.
The only exception to this rule Is
in district 2, where in Union and
Wallowa counties the season opens
September 10 and closes November
10. This gives hunters In these
counties the same length OF open sea-
son as in the rest of the state,
where the season closes October 81.
Outlook for a good season is most
promising. This is due mainly to
two reasons. First. the last three
winters have been exceptionally mild
which have permitted the deer to
feed on higher levels, and few have
perished from excessive cold wealth
err.
Perhaps a more important reason
Is that the United States govern
ment has had 20 professional hunt
ers in the state, who have been
spending their time in killing preda-
tory animals which are natural ene-
mics Of the deer. and have killed
thousands Of them during the last
few years.
Reports from all the districts
where deer are to be found are op-
timistie A good many local hunt
ers are aware of this fact, and are al
ready planning trips.
The limit on deer with horns Is
two in any one season. Female deer
and does, or young deer of the frs
year, or any portion thereof. ars
