DR.. REED Of THE O.A.C.
SPEAKS AT LUNCHEON

At the close OF the luncheon at
the Chamber OF Commerce today
President Bramwell introduced DIR.
Reed, of the extension department
Of the o. A. c., who told a few
stories each with point, and set the
diners in good humor. He then gave
facts in part as follows:
Professor Reed reviewed the var
ious measures that are to be submit
ted to the people on June 8, dwelling
especially on the measures linked up
with the s5,000,000 reconstruction
bonding amendment. The last leg
islature," said he, was not only the
most harmonious but the most pro-
gressive and constructive session the
legislature of Oregon has ever held
The legislators showed their vi
sion as well as their knowledge OF
present Industrial and political con-
ditions in the world" said he, sin
preparing measures to meet the en-
ergency of unemployment and to
absorb the shock incident to indus
trial readjustment following the
war"

that the government is the purchas-
er Of 100000 pounds of Yakima

age, has become known. ID. ]. Grif-

Mr.. Griffin reports that the pota-

Rheims, France. Apr. 7.-one Of
the little ironies of life from Ger
man point OF view in this turbulent
year OF 1919 must be the present
situation at Rheims. For four years
hundreds of German guns fired mil
lions Of German shells into Rheims,
completely wrecking its $4,000
buildings and the famous cathedral.
Today $4,000 Germans, captured
by the French while this destruction
was going on, are now at work clean
ing up the wreckage that their own
army created, and it is expected that
many more of these prisoners Will
be on the same job by spring.
Despite the fact that snow now
covers the ruins of Rheims the work
of clearing away the debris is go
ing on. AT the signing Of the ar
mistice visitor to the martyred
city could walk for blocks and not
meet another soul Today he could
meet scores of people, and tomorrow
| hundreds. For the Remoises, like
all other French provincial people.
love their homes above anything
else, and they are returning to them
despite the fact that proper shelter
and food are hard to obtain.
On almost every street, squads Of
German prisoners can be seen la
boring in the ruins, They are we'll
fed looking individuals, having full.
round faces. Among the thousands
in Rheims, there is not one that can
compare in emaciated and unhealthy
appearance with the hundreds of
British and other allied prisoners.
A small detail of some 80 or 40
Boches worked for the Red Cross in
Rheims for several weeks. The Am
erican organization has furnished
and equipped a dining hall and dor
mitories in ruined school for feed
ing and sheltering returning refu-
fgees. The German. prisoners repair
ed the roof that their artillery had
filled with shrapnel holes. rebuilt
two chimneys that had been knocked
down and replaced broken balcony
railing and staircases.
] Upon completing the kitchen chin
neys, they placed an American flag
on the top, and then summoned the
Red Cross worker exclaiming: "It is
the flag of the world" The next
day the Red Cross man asked the
German non-commissioned officer
who had planned this little compli.
ment to the Americans. to move q
stepladder. The German refused tc
work. explaining that German off.
GERS don't do manual labor.
This attitude will have plenty Of
time to wear of in Rheims, if the
prisoners are made to stay unit
Rheims again becomes city fit fol
human habitation.

senator Sinnott Calls Meeting ut
Portland to go over the Matter.
II. y. Bramwell 10 Attend

The Oregon State Chamber OF
Commerce has furnished the follow
Ing figures showing the receipts from
the sales OF public land In II OF the
reclamation states OF the West, the
major portion OF which fund is trans
forrod to the national reclamation
fund and used by the government In
the reclamation OF arid and swamp
lands Of the West. Also are shown
the funds expended by the reclama'
ton service In the various states.
The first column OF figures shows
the receipts from the public lands
TO June 80. 1918. The next column
OF figures show the net Investment
by the reclamation service on June
30, 1913. and the last column the
per cent OF receipts from the stateI
and returned TO the states:
Grants Pass daily courier. (Grants Pass, Or.) 1919-1931, 1919-04-07

The original plan OF the govern
ment was to return to each state u
sum equal to the amount contribu-
ted by said state less a percentage
for overhead expenses. In the early
history OF the reclamation service
construction OF projects was begun In
number OF the states and In order
TO carry on the work and complete
the projects II became necessary to
borrow from the reclamation funds
OF other states. Soon the projected
work In some OF the states assumed
a proportion beyond the possible re-
ccipts from the sale OF public lands
in those states. 1t was then that
the original plan was repudiated
and new rules adopted, which pro-
vided that the reclamation receipts
be placed In one general fund and
for general expenditure on reclama-
ton work without regard to the re-
ceipts from the state.
This proved Of great value TO some
OF the states, while Others were
forced to suffer accordingly. The
figures shown above prove this state
ment. Arizona received 100 pei
cent OF her contribution and Nevads
S58 per cent. With the exception o.
oreS N. all of the northwest states
haxS received an amount equal ol
greatly In excess OF the contribu
tions. Idaho 2S3 per cent, Montana

Protecting Wild Bees

This country is full of wild
bees, and they make lots of frs t
class honey. There should be a
legal requirement compelling
those who cut down the trees to
hive the bees and leave enough
honey for them to live on the
balance of the season. The bee
is also one of Gods creatures
and is entitled to just treatment.
The bees work is all good. 1t
does no harm. 1t is one of mans
most faithful servants. Just
ponder on the injustice of des-
troying the home of a swarm of
bees, taking away their entire
food supply and leaving them to
die with hunger and cold. No
Hun who lived from the day of
Atila down to Bloody Bill, was
ever guilty of a more damnable
atrocity than this same usual
procedure tow ard the bees.
Man exercises and has steward
ship over ali life of lesser intelli-
gence on earth. AS he admins
ters that stewardship and trusts,
so will those above him weigh
him in the final balance. Certain
ly the keeper of the gate and
the holder of the keys will have
the record. Prescott Courier.

although the production of 1918
was somewhat better than the
production of 1917.
Italy's cultivated area has been
slightly reduced during the war
period, but except for wheat,
the reduction in the volume of
bread stuffs has been serious.
Italy's cattle have been declined
