LITTLE THRESHING MACHINE
BOON TO SMALL FARMER.

The latest product of a Michigan
farm-implement factory seems likely
to start an "own your own threSher
movement among farmers who have
been dependent upon the conven-
lence of a community machine, says
the September Popular Mechanics
Magazine. The new threSher is 10
#, long and s #. 5 in. high, weighing
with all equipment, 5000 lbs, and
handling $50 bu. of grain an hour.
A tractor, l6 hp. or over, will run it.
The threShing mechanism is unusual,
consisting of four claws on arms re-
rolved by a crankshaft at 22S rpm,
stripping the grain as it passes be-
tween them. The elevator arm is
adjustable to any height of wagon
bed for direct loading. With this in
dividual-sized implement, the farm
er has only himself to blame if his
crop is not threshed at the proper
time.

HIGH COST OF HUNTING,

In our fathers time, hunting was
a pure, unadulterated sport, free
from the tinges Of commerclalism.
Fish and game were plentiful ana
could be obtained at little cost from
stream and field. And this helped
nightly in keeping down the meat
bill.
But now enters the law of supply
and demand. The game decreases,
the cost of hunting game increases.
In the old days ten cents worth of
powder, FIVE cents worth of shot, the
family muzzle loader and leisurely
day out Of doors meant meat-plen-
ty of it. A generation ago, in almost
every state, game was far more plen-
tiful than it is today.
With the increase OF population
and the invention OF modern sport
ing arms, wild birds and beasts have
become almost exterminated. Yet
where certain game is protected for
period Of time by rigid law, that
game shows tendency to multiply
| in numbers. The prairie chickens
and China pheasants in this county
are good examples.
But as we said before, the law ol
supply and demand is working anc

the sportsman hardly would dare cal

Guns and ammunition have gon'

to be added in, or there is gas to b'

worth as much as a good horse.

ROOSEVELT HIGHWAY.

Progress of an encouraging nature
is reported from Washington regard
ing the S2,5OO,oOO government ap-
preparation to match Oregon's issue
for the Roosevelt Memorial High
way.
This bill is now in the hands of
the house road committee and Rep
resentative Hawley wires that he
hopes for a favorable report on the
measure within the coming week.
The Roosevelt highway is one of
the most important road building
plans before congress and the en-.
tire Pacific coast from Canada to
the Mexican line is directly interest
ed in its success. 1t is intended to
be not only a public highway ira
versing route unsurpassed in
scenic attractions and tapping some
of the richest timber and agricultur-
al districts of the coast, but also a
military road, forming a great factor
of the coast defense system.
Oregon took the lead in this pro-
ject by passing a measure appro'
priating S2,50O,0OO for the work
This was on condition that the gov
ernment appropriate an equa
amount and now both Washington
and California are proceeding along
similar lines. This $3.50 plan o
road building was new one and tht
people are catching the fever witt
great rapidiy. They are awakening
to the fact that highly improved
highways are the salvation of tn,
country, industrially and CONNER
cially, and that first class road
along the coast must be had in orde
to perfect our system Of national de
fense.-Pendleton E. 0.

PAY ROLLS.

Thirteen hundred officers have re-
signed from the regular army since
the armstice was signed, or one in
every eight. The general staff is ex.
ercised about il and recently ordered
an investigation. The report shows
that high cost of living is the chief
cause, and remarks that the war de-
partment is now paying hodcarrier
substantially as much as a second
lieutenant, and a plasterer more than
first lieutenant-who may have had
seven years of university and hospi-
tai training. Both pay and allowance
of the army officer are included, and
he gives all his time against the
wage earner's eight hours.
Perhaps in an ideal adjustment Of
human values, a plasterer is worth
more than first lieutenant or than
a brigadier general; but the plas-
terer's seven and quarter dollars
day, he says, barely covers his cost
Of living, and a first lieutenant has
been brought up and educated to
more expensive plane Of living.
The chief victims of this high cost
of living are the salary earners, the
savers, the unorganized inarticulate
wage laborers. And they get the
least consideration, because they are
usually not in a position to raise a
row. The government is no better
employer, from the point Of view of
the people on its pay roll or from the
point Of view Of society as whole,
than any private concern is. 1t pays
its lieutenants now just what it paid
them in 1908, and it can hardly pay
them more, because it has to pay its
plasterers seven and quarter dollars
day-or more if the plasterers ener-
getically demand it. Its pay roll cx'
hibits the same inequality as any
others; in fact, greater inequality
than most pay rolls. Extending the

BY THE SWEAT OF THE BROW

In the old days, a great Greek with
a long name had an army which was
feared, not for its numbers but be-
cause Of its terrific fighting quail
ties.

legion was able to endure the utmost
strain and pnvauOn without wincing
OF yieling, faltering or failing,
A simple rule established BY their
leader accounted for the marvellous
physical condition of these men. He
. required that every member of his
force should perSpire at least once
every day.
In this era of Starched collars,
there is a distinct aversion to per-
Spiration. Labor-Saving devices and
the many machines that lift, shift,
pull and haul have reduced mans
opportunities to perSpire,

MORROW COUNTY OFFICIAL PAPKs
WHY OREGON LACKS SUGAR.

The threatened sugar famine is an
object lesson in the wisdom Of devel-
opment Of home supplies of such
staples. It has been proved that the
sugar beet is success in both east
ern and western Oregon, for it was
grown in the Grande Ronde valley
to supply a refinery at La Grande
and in the Rogue valley to supply
another at Grants Pass. Both re6n-
cries were closed and the industry
was abandoned, but it was continued
long enough to prove that sugar beets
grow well in Oregon soil.
Oregon is now threatened with a
sugar famine because employees OF q
refinery in California and Stevedores
ar California ports have struck. This
is a repetition of our troubles during
the war, when submarines sank so
many ships that no tonnage was
available to bring sugar from Java,
where there was abundance. There
should be no danger of coffee with
out sugar because Of labor troubles
in California when Oregon is capable
of producing sugar, even if the cost
would be somewhat higher.
Most of the troubles growing from
deficiency of necessary things DUR
ing the last few years have arisen
from neglect to develop our own re-
sources. That was true as to the
Unitel States in relation to the out
side world. II now proves true as to
Oregon in relation to the other
states. Oregon should make sure of
sugar by growing it.-Oregonian.

to publish in the face of the whole
world their fixed resolution, both in
the administration of their own states
and in their political relations with
every other government, to take for
their sole guide the precepts of that
holy religion, namely, the precepts of
justice, Christian charity. and peace,
which, far from being applicable only
to private concerns, must have an i'm

princes and guide all their steps. as

 PARIS, June 3.-A celebrated mu- sician once declared that anything could be set to music, "even a news paper article" Some confirmation has just been given to his distum in Paris by thes first performance of ."Apotheose," a lyrical work given by txo hundred singers. (soloists and chorus). The music was written by Francis Casadesus and the words by Paul Deschanel. the President of the Chamber of Deputies. M. DesehanePs 1ibretto is, in fact, one of his elo- Quent speeches, which Casadesus found so lyrical that he was inspired by it to set it to music. The work had most successful production.
