PHOSPHATE
nothing Like Plain Bitro- Phosphate to
Put ON Firm, Healthy Flesh and
to Increase Strength. vigor
and Nerve Force

Judging from the countless prepara-
tions and treatments which are sontin-
uaily being advertised for the purpose
of making thin people fieshy, develop
ing arms, meek and bust, and replacing
ugly bellows and angles by the soft
curved lines Of health and beauty, there
are evidently thousands IF men and
women who keenly feel taeir excessive
thinness.
Thinness and weakness are usually
due to starved nerves. Our bodies
need more phosphate than is contained
in modern foods. Physicians claim
there is nothing that will supply this
deficiency so we'll as the organic phos-
phate known among druggists as bitro-
phosphate, which is inexpensive and
is sold by most all druggists under a
guarantee of satisfaction or money
back. By feeding the nerves directly
and by supply the body cells with the
necessary phosphoric food elements,
bitro- phosphate quickly produces a
welcome transformation in the appear
anee; the increase in weight frequent
ly being astonishing.
This increase in weight also carries
with it general Improvement in the
health. Nervousness, sleeplessness and
lack of energy, which nearly always
accompany excessive thinness, soon dis
appear, dull eyes become bright, and
pale cheeks glow with the bloom of
perfect health.
0AUTION--Although bitro-phosphate
is unsurpassed for relieving nervous
ness, sleeplessness and general weak
ness, it should not, owing to its re-
markable flesh growing properties, be
used BY anyons who does not desire to

tence and the law on the subject has
never been amended. To be sure, Of
fenses of this kind come more properly
within federal jurisdiction, but the at
mosphere of Oregon is too purely Amer
lean to tolerate such an omission, and
l feel that this legislature would be
justified in taking up this and kindred
subjects of legislation.
Circumstances might arise where the
federal law could not reach the traitor
or the defamer and it would be un-
fortunate to allow failure Of justice
because the state itself had been remiss.
Now, while the poisonous influences of
sedition and sabotage are fresh in our

any misunderstanding as to the degree
Of punishment Oregon courts and Ore

Trade Development.
Now that the war will soon be history
our minds naturally turn again toward
study of the possibilities of trade
development. We must look squarely
toward the horizon with large vision
for the development of Oregon. Our
constant sim and ideal should be to
determine how the tremendous natural
resources of Oregon can most effect
lively be placed to the uses of the hand
of man.
This state has been extravagantly en-
dowed by nature with an abundance of
natural wealth awaiting development.

ment, but because Of the present dis
heartening status of state finances il
may be necessary to defer for another
two years this almost imperative i'm.
provement.
Due largely to the cleansing Influence
Of prohibition the population Of the
Ipenitentiary Is now considerably lower
than it has been for many years, but
we must not lose sight of the fact that
the abnormal industrial conditions re-
sulting from the war have also been
instrumental in reducing crime. Unless
wages remain high and employment
plentiful we may expect an increase
rather than a further decrease in pen
itentiary population.
Flax Industry.
The past two seasons have been the
most unfavorable, elimatically, Of the
last forty years for the growing Of flax,
and for that reason the showing made
by the state flax industry, operated ii
conjunction with the penitentiary, has
not been as favorable as might have
been expected under average conditions
Nevertheless the outlook is yet eneour-
aging and the demonstration has been
sufficient to satisfy those familiar
with the industry that flax can be
made profitable crop.
Despite the unfavorable climatic
conditions, the flax industry is now IN
good, healthy shape, as evidenced by
its assets at the time of the biennial
report, September 30, 1918, as follows:

The administration Of the selective
service law revealed a distressingly
large number of illiterates in the Unit
ed States. Under the 1917 draft alone
100000 men registered by marking KS
for their names. 1t is a pleasure for
me to remark that recent federal re-
port announced Oregon 5 rank among
the 48 states as third in the scale of IL
literacy, only two state, Iowa and Ne,
braska, ranking above her. Neverthe-
less the last federal census discredited
Oregon with 10,504 illiterates and the
fact that new official ranking will be
determined in the 1920 census, which
will remain fixed for full decade, sug
gests the Importance Of the subject.
Because most illiterates are beyond
the school age the problem is admitted
difficult. A number Of Oregon judges
now require that men appearing before
them for examination looking toward
citizenship submit their wives also for
educational test and this custom will no
doubt lead to beneficial results in reach
| ing those adults inclined to illiteracy.
At the inspiration of the state depart
ment Of education the teachers Of the
states arc being encouraged to aid all
residents who seek assistance in special
subjects of education. Their generosity
in this direction should be recognized
| Simply because our thoughts Of late
years have been concerned more or less
| exclusively with wartime and world
wide considerations we should not abatc
our efforts toward desired educational
ends and should not lose sight Of the
fact that our schools constitute the
best recruiting ground for patriotism as
well as citizenship, and that they have
g direct, almost decisive bearing on the
future destiny Of our state.
Two years ago recommended the
establishment of facilities for military
training in the high schools, and inter
mediate events end to strengthen the
arguments in favor Of this innovation.

early as February l, 1919, saving to
the state of about $S30,000.00 would re-

would probably average $S0,00O.00
monthly over the five months period

there would be an additional saving of
about $15O,00O.00, providing an emer-

BURNING OUT WEEDS.

Dirty fenve corners and fence lines

Anyone who has tried cleaning fence

STEEL FENCE AND LIGHTNING.

National Crop Improvement Service.l
In tire summer time when the thun.
der caps appear in the sky and the
storm sweeps down on the farm, the
farmer thinks less of his safety than
he does of his live stock
When the stock is in the field during
the storm, it may happen that the
animals drift against the wire fence
which may be heavily charged with
electricity and are shocked to death.
The ordinary fence built on wooden
posts should be grounded every sixth
post. To ground the fence" means
to twist a piece of wire six or eight
feet long aroU3d all of the line wires
of the fence and then dig hole in the
ground near the post and bury the
other end Of the wire. The hole should
be dug deep enough so that the wire
comes in contact with moist eartn.
A fence so grounded, offers no danger
TO live stock during the thunderstorm.
The wire fence built on galvanized
steel fence posts is already grounded
at every post and no thunderstorm with
its discharge of lightning can injure
the cattle inclosed by such fence.
