DISABLED SOLDIERS 4.
TAKE UP LIFE AGAIN

According to the summer school
news OF the Oregon Agricultural
College amputated legs, lost eye
sight, shattered arms and many 9TH
er injuries are but trifles now to
the disabled soldiers being educated
at the college by the government.
Most Of them say they were much
discouraged while in the hospitals,
but since undertaking work to fit
them for a useful service in their
various communities they are happy
and enjoy life as much as ever.
Two weeks to live was the decree
of specialists. That was seven months
ago. Today Lorain r. Markle is ac-
tive and interested in his horticul.
tural studies.
Injuries received while in France
seriously affected my heart" he
said. Physicians say now / may live
to ripe old age with care and exer-
else. / was doing active physical
work before entering the service and
to be a student of theories and books
at first seemed hard"
Mn. Markle Is enthusiastic oyel
his work and optimistic about the fu.
ture He is married and his home
Is in st. Louis.
With total blindness almost in
evitable in the near future Homer r
Fleming, injured soldier Of Joseph
keeps his courage steadfast and Il
cheerfully confident that whateve
happens he can make good at some
thing. While in service in Franc,
he received injuries causing blind
ness. His sight returned but occul
lists have told him II will be only {
matter OF time until he will be to
tally blind. He Is taking a regular
course in agriculture.
Fleming admits he was much dis
couraged for time but he feels nov
that IL he Is unable to continue hi
agricultural work other work suit
able to his abilities can be found
His optimism and determination ar
an inspiration to those about him.
Standing on a wooden leg most o
the day does not bother Ralph S
Boyer OF Philadelphia who chose o
A. c. for his training at the expens,
OF Uncle Sam. He is studying farm
mechanics and likes il better thai
anything he has ever done.
Ashland tidings. [volume] (Ashland, Or.) 1876-1919, 1919-08-15

While on board ship in search OF
submarine mines near the Hawaiian
Islands Boyer's leg was cut off by
an automatic anchor. He said life
looked dismal the nine months he
was in the hospital but everything is
fine now. He takes great pleasure
in discussing the merits of his wood
en- leg. He expects to be in ma
chine shop after his course at the
college is finished.
Robert v. Stephens is btudying
butter and cheese making. Stephens
was wounded Four times in his
right arm and lost his right eye thru
injuries received from mustard seed
shrapnel.
He owned and lived on ranch be-
fore entering the service. He likes
dairying and expects to work in a
cheese factory or creamery after his
course ht ths college is finished.
Stephens is married. His home is
Tacoma, Wash.
William H. Hill of Eugene Is TAX
ing advanced tractor mechanics and
animal husbandry. Hill was in the
navy and an electrical explosion on
shipboard madly burned him aboutu
the left hand and arm. He was in
the hospital nine months and lost
his thumb and the use of his wrist.
He says he likes the work and ex-
poets to be a tractor salesman or
manager of farm when his course
is completed. Hill is quiet chap
and a hard worker.
To get married and settle down on
farm of his own after his vocation
al work at the college is finished are
the plans of Alexander Brander Of
Hepner. Brandner was injured by
shrapnel in the second battle of the
Marne. He is studying general farm
work and specializing in animal hus-
bandry. A piece of shrapnel taken
from his back he has made into
watch fob. Brander is a merry
hearted Scotchman and cheers up
everyone around him.
e. M. Barrett of Ashland, disabled
while in service in France, had pep"
enough to return to high school one
week after his arrival home. His
trouble is a strained heart. He is
now specializing in animal husband

Longevity of Big Commercial
Cars Due to Superior

The longevity Of motor trucks has
been much discussed subject
among business men since they
came into use. In the early days
Of the automobile there was a ques-
ton in the minds Of many purchas-
ers as 70 how long they would last.
AZ that time the question was PEI

the firm Of Hagedorn and Webster,

pile industry in the last twenty years

genuity OF automobile engineers

example OF the longevity Of motor

DYE INDUSTRY
GROWING FAST
United States Will be a Close
Competitor to Germany
Within 3 Years.

CHICAGO, March due to wars
demand for dyestuffs, the United
States practically doubled her out
put. and in the next three years
will be close competitor of Ger
many as the largest dye-making
country in the world, according to
Robert Alfred Shaw. vice president
of the National Aniline and Chem
zeal Co, Inc, and a director in the
American Manufacturers Export
association.
He said attention is being given
TO development of foreign narkets
'and branch offices of large American
concerns. American dye manufac-
turers not only supplied the enor-
nous textile demands due to the
war. but also the need of tine Amer
! lean army and navy, Mr.. Shaw said
In addition, the American exports
in 1915 were valued at more than
$40, 600
Quantity was urged by the gov
eminent during the war, but now
closer study will he given to diff
ferent cOlors, he said. Before the
war Germany was producing 900
cOlOrs and America now is making
$50 OF these colors and they are
type for type equal TO their Ger
many prototype
The export trade is a matter of
which we are giving deep thought"
Mr.. Shaw continued. I'VE are es-
tablishing Offices in the far east and
elsewhere at a heavy expense, but
we intend TO place American dyes
everywhere. To this end we Will
need help from many sources. IL is
perhaps generally known that Ger
man export goods were subsidized
10y the German railroads to the eX-
tent of % per cent, in freight re-
auctions" Overseas freight. he
said. were important matters TO be
dealt with.
'It is assumed that the American
textile trade intends TO support thu
American dye-stuff industry" said
Mr.. Shaw. The world now regards
manufacture Of dye-stuffs as a piv-
otal industry and that each large
nation must be dependent. Eng
land has adopted a license system
which precludes the importation Of
colors that its own producers can
make.
Right now. however. il is Of
great Importance 10 the American
textile manufacturers that the
American dyestuff trade should de-
velop it's export outlet in order that
costs for American dyes may be
kept on a parity with products Of
foreign manufacture
