LOCAL AND PERSONAL

Henry Johnson, of Port Oregon, ar
rived here last night. He came to visit
his mother, Mrs. I. J. Johnson, who
has been here for Short time. Mr..
Johnson had some unique experience
trying to locate his mother, whose To-
cal address he did not have. He went
to the hotels, inquired of citizens, Wis
tied the postoffice and at last met with
success. Mr.. Johnson would have
been searching yet had he not located
that mother of his.
So q - =
Tarpon Springs has a few anglers
who think they can angle some. They
have not yet met up with w. H. Jones,
travelling salesman, who, according
to reports, is real angler. Mr.. Jones
holds the record of hitting the bulls
eye at 1876 feet. He can drop his bait
within three and one-half inches of
any desired spot within 1875 feet. He
and L. K. Vinson are out at the lake
this afternoon and Mr.. Jones has
promised to bring us half dozen bass
weighing six pounds each. Those of
less size he returns to the water and
waits for them to grow-that is, if
these amateur anglers don't hook
them.

ENGLAND FEELS NEED
OF DOMESTIC SERVANTS

The need of domestic servants is so
seriously felt in England since the girl
servants became munition workers
that Lady Londonderry, president of
the Women's legion, is heading a we'll
organized movement for the employ
ment as servants of large numbers of
the women's auxiliary army corps now
bein demobilized. About 5000 of the
"Waacs" will be available for domes-
tic work, it is estimated. 1t is hoped
they will help to relieve THE servant
shortage.
"Hhe chief points of the scheme, +"
Lady Londonderry explained, "are a
minimum wage, definite leave, inter-
change of work, badge and uniform,
and system of probation
eve thought it best net to attempt
to establish a stated working day, but

U. S. CONTINUES TO ACCEPT
WAR MATERIAL ORDERED
OF BRITISH CONTRACTORS

Neutrality-suspicious. of The
Associated Press.)-On the Thames,
less than twenty miles from London,
there is an American town of the
mushroom kind such as you might find
in new California oil field. It's pop
ulation consists of more than 200
white men and about $50 negroes. 1t
is the great American supply depot in
England.
There is street of wooden huts, an
other of corrugated iron huts, huge
iron store sheds a quarter of a mile
long, Office buildings, water supply
and electric lights, the whole sur
rounded by hedge, few armed sem
tries and mud. All day long the khaki
clad negroes push and haul railway
trucks full of war material.
Englishmen peer over the hedge and
ask satirically if the United States
doesn't know that the war is over. If
they ask an officer for enlightenment
about this strange camp, his explana-
ton is something like this:
America came into the war with
both feet, banking on at least three
years of. it, which was the safe thing
to do. Our government made con-
tracts with British manufacturers to
isupply our army with tons of war ma
terial, from tin tack to steam-roll-
er. The British factories built new
plants and took on new hands to meet
our needs, and deliveries were going
smoothly when the armistice was
signed.
eff we had scrapped our contracts
then, some British firms might have
been driven into bankruptcy, putting
thousands of men out of work and
leaving the factories with tons of use
less material on their hands. So the
United States government merely can
celled orders for material that had not
been actually started on, and told the
factories to go ahead with what they
had in hand.
"This place is the collecting station
for that material. We are receiving
tractors for guns, entrenching tools,
thousands of yards of camoufage wire
netting, stacks of asbestos roofing for
hospitals, frames for huts. Wheelbar-
rows, shovels, pickaxes, bolts, screws,
and lot of other stuff. We are going
to store it here and sell it later on. 1t
will all be useful, and we can wait for
the market. The mar ufacturcr could
r't have waited"
War material coming back from
Russia is being stored at this camp,
also the fittings of the dismantled hos
pitfalls which the American army es-
tablished in England.

GIVE THEM A LIFT

Pastor A. E. Gammage, of the First
Baptist church, together with several
of his workers and members, conduct
ed a service at Mount Herman Bap-
fist church (colored) last night. There
were several colored ministers present
who kept the "amen" corner ringing
with shouts and praises, during the
course of the sermon on adam, where
art thou?", after which an offering
was taken to assist the church in it's
struggle to rebuild the church build
ing which was demolished during the
big storm. Donations of two days la
Dor by Mr.. Cleveland, $25 worth of
lumber by ]. w. Alderman and several
dollars cash offering, were received
with much gratitude, as expressed by
hearty "amens" and much applause.
Why not add few dollars more to
what has already been given, and give
the Mount Herman church "sure-
enough lift? This is worthy cause.
Pastor king is doing a good work
among the negroes of the town, and is
worthy of the support and confidence
of the white people. If you wish to
have part in restoring the temple"
at Mount Herman, turn in to Pastor
Gammage or Pastor King, your offer
ing for this purpose.

PLANTING CORN
THAT WILL GROW

Connecticuts experience last season
shows the value of testing seed corn.
Corn shows in this state in 1871
were unique in that 50 ear germlna-
ton test was made of each entry.
These tests saved the state thousands
of dollars disclosing that much of the
seed com of the 1917 crop was very
low in terminating qualit,eS. A cam
paign was inuagurated for the testing
of all corn to. be used foT the 1918
crop. Tie work in macy places was
taken up Though the schools and
teachers and pupils We're taught to
make tests, no excuse was left for
any farmer to plant immature corn.
In one county 100 samples showed
only so per cent. terminating pow
er, and in another county only 10 per
cent. of the corr tested was fit for
planting. The farm bureaus saved the
day by carrying on 50 vigorous a cam
paign that all corn fiji for i,.apting was
made available for home use or sale.
In addition 10 supplying the states
nees for good seed corn, the farm bu-
reaus were able to get together six
carloads of tested seed corn for
shipment to North Dakota ard Wiscon
sin. where also the situation was Sc
rious. This oorn brought the farmers
of Connecticut $4,000.

age waters of many a surrounding mile
of foothills. Thus originates the steam
which bursts from the myriad valley
vents. The phenomenon is familiar
in the ncigh5orhood of most volcanoes
which still are classod at active.
Steaming springs, a later stage of the
vents in this valley are found upon
the TANKS Of several of the most
prominent of our Cascade volcanoes,
and are numerous arounj he base of

lEGHORNS PRODUCE
EGGS CHEAPER

Leghorns produce eggs cheaper than
hens of the general-purpoae breeds;
Plymouth Rocks, Wyandottes, Rhode
Island Reds and Orpingtons. This fact,
which confirms the belief and eX-
perience of commercial loultry farm
ers, was one of the results obtain
ed in a rather extensive feeding test
conducted by poultryInen OF the
United States Department of Agri-
culture. Because they lay. as many
or more eggs, eat only about 55
pared with 70 to So pounds eaten by
the general9urpose breeds, and be-
cause their egg yield very materially
exceeds that of general-purpose
breeds during their second and third
laying years, Leghorns, the special
lists say. undoubtedly are more profit
able to keep for the production of
eggs only.
The Leghor1s produce smaller eggs
than the general-purpos breeds. The
| average weight of. the eggs of a pen
! of Leghorns during the first laying
year was Lag pounds per dozen as
| against 1853 10 1,5S pounds for the
| other pens. However, Leghorns lay
ing eggs weighing 1.50 POUNDS per
| dozen or even more, the specialists
! many poultcymen. An examination
| in May, 1915, of SEQ eggs from three
| Leghorn pens showed that 81 per
| cent weighed more than two ounces
! each, or 1.50 pounds to the dozen.
! The value per dozen Of the eggs
! produced by the Leghorns was from
| one to three cents less each year than
! the eggs Of general-putrose hens
| This difference is due . the fact that
| the general-purpose bree Is are better
| winter layers than the Leghorns.
while the latter give higher pro-
sduction in the spring and summer
Very few Leghorns become broody
! which probably materially affects
their egg yield, as compared with tbs
general purpose breeds. Tietter fer
tility in the eggs especially with
stock confined to the yards. is more
| often secured with Leghmns than
with the generaI-purpose or any OF
| the heavier breeds.
