SEWING SCHOOL TO
Be HELD IN APRIL

A good representation of Ashland
women met at the library yesterday
with Miss Florence Pool, the county
home demonstration, who came here
to confer with the women of this
city with view to locating a three
day clothing school. About 25 were
present at the call of Miss Pool and
enthusiastically received her ideas of
giving a course of instructions on
sewing and the making of garments
at home. Arrangements were made
at this meeting whereby series of
lessons will be given Monday, Tues
day and Wednesday, April 5, and
I. These lessons will be given in
the Temple of Truth, and will occu-
py probably two hours in the fore
noon of each day and three in the
afternoon. Miss Pool will be assist
ed by specialist who will give prac-
tical lessons on sewing. All these
lessons and instructions are free and
anyone wishing any information on
garment making can attend. A
number of Belleview and Neil Creek
residents were at the meeting yes
terday and promise an interest in
the school when it takes place.

FRUIT GROWERS TALK
ON FROST INJURY

A mass meeting has been called
in Medford Wednesday, February 4.
by County Agriculturist Cate to re-
port on the result of the big freeze
in December, and consider methods
OF orchard treatment to eradicate the
effects therefrom.
Professor j. c. Reed of the United
States department of agriculture will
attend the meeting after he has in
spected the orchards and will make
his report of the effects. According
to Mr.. Cate, the results OF the freeze
varied so in different localities that
no uniform method of treatment can
now be given, nor can there be any
accurate crop forecast until the
growing season has been under way
for some time.
According to Mr.. Cate the damage
to the fruit in the valley is not near
ly as great as was at first feared. In
the hill sections, he states, there has
been very little damage, and the val
ley areas are not hit as badly as was
at first predicted

The pitifui story of Armenia and
her plucky fight for independence
was graphically told to an Ashland
audience yesterday afternoon in the
Elks' Temple by Mrs. o. F. Lamson
of Seattle, native of that unfortu-
nate country, who is touring the
coast in the interests of the Near
East Relief fund, the campaign for
which will be made shortly. Mrs.
LamsOn, while a resident of Seattle,
keeps close touch with the refugees
from her country who came here, and
has already adopted 15 young Ar
menian girls which she is educating
to send back as missionaries to their
country. This interesting speaker
made plain to her audience the rea-
sons for Armenia's constant persecu-
tion from the unspeakable Turk, and
to America to bring about
the means whereby this country may
be relieved from its constant yoke
of oppression and become a free and
country. A good sized
audience greeted Mrs. Lamson, who
was introduced by Mrs. D. Perozzi.
Mrs. H. T. Elmore sang, accom-
panied by Mrs. H. G. Enders, Jr.

Whether it is because OF the in
creased cost of meat or because peo-
pies tastes have changed, the fact
remains that Americans are eating
per cent less meat than they were
20 years ago. This is disclosed in a
recent dietary survey made by the
United States Department of Ag-
riculture.
In the survey 1000 dietary records,
each covering period of seven days,
were collected from 1925 families
and SIS institutions in 46 states. Six
teen nationalities and many occupa-
tions and incomes were represented,
as were also both urban and rural
localities.
From a summary of 500 of these
family records it appears that last
year the average cost of food per man
per day was 46 cents, with an aver
age return in food value of 1925
calories, 96 grams protein, 11S grams
fat, and 4O5 grams carbohydrate.
These figures are in fairly close ac-
cord with the dietary standards Or
dinarily used in discussing such prob
lens OF general nutrition.
A comparison of the foodstuffs
purchased by the 500 families with
the amounts of the same food pur-
chased by 400 families about 20 years
ago shows that the amount of meat
in the American diet has decreased
about per cent, and the amount
of grain products about II per cent.
People are eating more milk, butter,
and cheese than they were two de-
cades ago, for the amount of dairy
products consumed has increased
about 6 per cent. Four per cent more
vegetables and 5 per cent more fruit
is being eaten now.
Some individual food habits un-
need to be corrected, but
judging by these studies, it seems
fair to conclude that the average
diet seems to be adequate.

LIME SCARCE, TRAINERS ARE
ADVISED TO ORDER EARLY

Farmers probably will not be able
to secure lime to meet their agricul-
tural needs if they wait about order
ing it until they are ready to apply
it. Under old conditions, companies
supplying agricultural lime recog-
nized spring and late summer as the
two periods of demand, and farmers
have ordinarily ordered their lime at
the time they wished to apply it, in
order to save time and work by in
cluding hauling from the railroad
station and applying to the land in
one operation. Under present CON
ditiOns, says the United States De-
partment of Agriculture, lime man
ufacturers are no longer able to ad-
Just their business to this practice.
Owing to a shortage of labor in their
own plants and transportation diff
culties, last-minute deliveries can no
longer be made with certainty.
For these reasons the Department
of Agriculture urges that spring
needs be anticipated and that orders
for lime be placed at once. Dealers
and manufacturers should have ad-
vance information as to farmers
needs so that orders can be combined
and car space used to the best ad-
vantage. Delay in ordering may re-
suit in failure to obtain the lime
until too LATE.
1t is, moreover, the desire of the
Railroad Administration that the
season for delivery of lime, which has
heretofore been from March to May,
be extended to include the period
from January to May, in order to
relieve, as far as possible, the exist
ing car shortage.

ASHLAND BOY
ANNOUNCES FOR
SECRETARY OF STATE

In announcing my candidacy for
the republican nomination for the
office of secretary of state at the
coming primaries, l do so with the
feeling that am amply qualified.
am a native of Oregon. being
born at Ashland September %. 1886.
l have had a qualifying business ex-
perience and at the present time am
county clerk of Josephine county,
having been elected to that office
for four successive terms.
Oregon has probably as many nat
ural resources as any state in the
Union, and as citizen and official
feel that they should have our earn
est attention in order that we may
not overlook anything that would
help toward the states develop
ment.
l am believer in bigger and a
greater Oregon, and in the use OF
Oregon products and feel that every
effort in that direction should be en-
couraged. AS member of the
Board of Control would do all in my
power toward that end.
l am an advocate of good roads
and feel that a constructive road
building plan is not only a benefit to
the rural communities, but that it
would also be beneficial to the flu
ture welfare Of our state.
| am a thorough believer in irri-
cation and think that the farmers
of this state should have consistent
in matters pertain
ing to irrigation as well as other
matters affecting them, as they are
one of the main factors and stand
bys in the development of any state.
It-seems to me that there should
be a different national policy in the
matter of forest protection in ordr
hat our vast forests be not devas-
tated as they have been during the
past and as an officer of the state
will do what Il can to bring this
about
If elected to the office to which |
aspire, will give it my personal at.
iention and conduct it on business
basis and to the best of my ability.

LONDON.-Sir Oliver Lodge
told the Royal Society of Arts re-
Gently that if men were capable of
harnessing all the atomic energy in
a small piece of chalk, or any other
matter of a similar size, they would
have enough power to raise 100000
tons to a height of 5000 feet.
Up to the present, he said, they
had not succeeded in making use
of that power but they were on the
verge of doing it. In the wireless
telephone was the first step in that
direction. There the particles given
off by a wire electrically heated to
whiteness were employed to break
the circuit. SO sensitive and prompt
were the particles to respond to the
electrical stimulus that one could
send words at the rate of 800 min
ute by the Morse code. BY no ordi-
nary mechanical means could this be
accomplished.
Among other possible sources of
energy, said Sir Oliver, was the ether
and he warned his auditors not to
disregard it because it was as real
thing as anything. With regard to
the energy emanating from the sun
the best thing we could do with it
was to utilize it through agriculture.
Plants had found out how to use il
without first turning it into heat
and we could not better their meth
DDS.
Other possible sources of energy
were the tides and the waves. With
the former nothing could yet be done
on account of the vast areas required
to form reservoirs. The land so
covered would be of much more value .
if reclaimed and use for agriculture.
He preferred to consider the posi-
bility of utilizing the waves If any
thing were going to be done in that
direction.

The funeral of Miss Ethel Hale,
the well known Ashland young lady
who died at Santa Clara, Calf, Jan
uary 25, was conducted from the
Methodist church of that city Tues
day afternoon, January q. The SER
vices were conducted by Rev. E. H..
Smith, the pastor, and the choir rem
dered several beautiful and appro-
pirate selections. Mr.. Smith spoke
touchingly on the good Christian life
Of the deceased.
The burial was in the Santa Clara
cemetery, and the grave was covered

Gleason, Laura Fernish, Frieda Hoff-
man, Lois Pickering, Opal Grimmer

ular member of the Ashland high
school, In November she left with

short illness passed away at the age
of 10 years. Surviving her are her
parents and the following brothers
and sisters: Mr. j. B. Tuttle of
Lamar, Colo; Mrs. F B. Clary OF
Emmett Hale and Clarence
W. Hale of Dunsmuir; Glenn D. Hale

A large number of sorrowing friends
in Ashland mourn her demise.

' 1t is a curious fact that the snake
charmers Of India change their vic
Tins every year, letting loose the
snakes they have had for exactly a
year, to the very day, and procure
fresh ones to take their places. The
superstitution in the family is to the
effect that their power over ind-
vidual snakes becomes Intellectual
after exactly one year.
They cite as proof the fact that
yenturesome female snake-charme
once attempted to keep a particu-
larly fine specimen beyond the spec
flied time.
The result was fatal; the woman
died from the creatures bite. This
odd belief could be easily explained
by the fact that, knowing this le-
gend, the woman lost her confidence.

Franklin O'Alier, national com
mander OF the American Legion, from
national headquarters at Indianapo
lis, has issued the following state
ment regarding the attitude of the
American Legion toward organized
labor:
"The attitude of the American Le-
gion towards organized labor is ex-
actly the same as its attitude toward
all groups of American citizens who
are interested in a square deal for
all in the maintenance of law and
order and the protection OF, the in.
stitutions handed down to US by our
forefathers.
"The purpose of the American Le-
gion is two-fold-seryice to our COM
rades and service to our country.
"Under the head of service to our
comrades we will exert all OF our in
fluence and all of our strength to
the end that the ex-seryice man, es-
pecially the disabled man and his de
pendents and the dependents Of those
who paid the supreme sacrifice, shall
receive that just and fair treatment
which they have reason to expect
from a patriotic and liberal coun-
try.
"In serving our country we shall
endeayor to keep alive that spirit OF
service which induced us all to re-
spond to our country's call in the
time of her need even to the extent
Of being willing to pay the supreme
sacrifice. And this we propose doing
by assisting in the maintenance Of
n hundred-percent Americanism
based on fair play and a square deal
for all.
"The members Of organized labor
are patriotic American citizens and
the members of the American Legion
are patriotic American citizens who
have proven their patriotism and
their loyalty. Consequently, on the
purposes Of the American Legion both
they and we are in accord Many
of our most loyal members are mem
bers Of organized labor, and it is our
hope that we may be able to con-
vince every eX-service man who is
member o forganized labor that our
purposes are the same as loyal 'citi-
zens and that every eX-service man
in organized labor will join the
American Legion. All ex-seryice men
who are members of organized labor
have proven their loyalty and their
patriotism to the country and now
appreciate their responsibilities as
citizens, and we therefore hope it
will not be long before they all are
active members of the American Le-
gion."
A large percentage Of the members
of Ashland Post are affiliated with
some trades union, and the utmost
of good will prevails between the
Post and the various unions in this
community.
