BEARINGS WON'T WEAR
UNTIL OIL FILM BREAKS

BY way of emphasizing the i'm
portance of fabrication. It is inter
esting to learn that engine bearings
do not begin to wear until the oil
flm is broken. That statement may
sound like old stuff. but It isn't. OF
course there are plenty of motorists
who understand that bearings only
wear when the film gives way, thus
allowing the hard steel crankshaft
to rub against the softer bearing
metal. They may believe that the
breaking of this f1m may occur dur
ing the nrst few minutes that the
car is in operation and may con-
tinue to occur At frequent intervals
until the bearing. in the course of a
year or so. requires taking up be-
cause of the resultant wear, How
ever. II will be surprising to hear
that II the engine Is properly de-
signed and dutifully oiled that IL may
be years before the film breaks and
bearing wear results.

Proponents of Three Referendums
Claim 161, 900 Legal Voters

Starting Monday morning twenty
five stenographers and clerks will be
put on the secretary Of states pay
roll to work on the checking of the
three referendum petitions which ar
rived in Olympia this week. The
three petitions carry, according to
the proponents, approximately 1884,
900 names of legal voters OF this
state. These names must be all
checked and filed to keep out dupli-
Gates in signatures. II duplicate
is found on any of the petitions the
name is struck from the referendum.
According to the law the petitions
must be opened in the presence of
the governor or some state Official.
1t is the duty Of the state ofiicial to
watch the work until the petitions
are put in volumes and bound. AS
the governor Is out OF the city Sec
retary of State J. Grant Hinkle
asked the attorney general for a
ruling on who was a state official
The attorney generals opinion stated
that any officer designated by the
statute could serve. Therefore a
director as we'll as an elective or ap-
pointive officer can take charge Of
this matter. Secretary of State Hin
kle has not yet named the official.
The entire work of checking must
be finished within 80 days but the
work will be hampered on account
of having no available room to work
in. Heretofore this work has al
ways been carried on in the house
chamber, but on account of the dem
tai examinations being held there the
senate chamber will be used. Fol-
lowing the G. A. r. convention which
will use the house chamber from
June 20 to "a, the checking force
will remove into the larger chamber
where the work will be completed.

BERRY CANNING
CAMPAIGN PLANNED
Business Men Promote Effort to En-.
able Berry Growers to Market All
Their Crop at Home.

A strawberry m p a g n was
launched at a meeting at the Crane
.rstaurant today by County Agent
Stookey, Messrs. Lord and Green rep
resenting the banks and the grocers
Of the city. looking toward conserving
the berry interests of Thurstor
county.
Owing to the high price of berries
and sugar last year the canneries
have not been able to sell their prod
uct and are therefore unable to buy
the crop Of berries that are produced
this year.
The farmers have grown their ber-
rise and will have no market for their
crop except the home market. 1t Is
the purpose to urge every housewife
to can berries enough to last two
years II necessary, SO as to create
market for the berries here, and ca.
able the farmers to keep their berry
fields. Next year the canners Will
want berries. and will doubtless be
able to absorb all the crop.
1t was brought out by County Agent
Stookey that the berry producers can
not find a market except at home,
since every community is situated ex-
actly as we are. II, however, every
household will can all the berries they
can use for the year the farmer will
not have to plow up his berries and
thus destroy one of our most valuable
agricultural assets.
Sugar and jars are cheap and ber-
ries are cheaper than they ought to
be-and cheaper than they will be
next year, when the canneries are
again In the market.
This campaign is put on to keep up
the price of berries to the farmer.
and to keep them reasonable to the
consumer. The commercial club, and
every agency in the city should get
behind the movement. which is for
cooperation to save the berry inter-
ests of this county.

BY FRAZER EDWARDS.

WASHINGTON, D. c., June g.
The United States took up the hunt
today for the profiteer in agricul-
tural products.
The most important matter be-
fore the joint commission of agri-
culture inquiry, created by the Leu
root resolution, effective today, was
the chasing down of tie man who
is getting away with the agricultural
swag.
Create Committee "f Ten.
A permanent, policy for the farm
ing industry is expected to develop
from the researches of the commits
sion Of ten, created after long con-
ferences between farm organization
and congressional leaders to do away
with piecemeal investigation and
emergency legislation. The ten con-
gressmen will investigate:
Causes Of present conditions in
agriculture.
The cause of difference between
prices paid the producer and charged
10 the consumer.
The comparative condition Of other
industries.
The relation between farm prices
and prices OF Otte. commodities,
Banking and financial resources
and credits affecting agriculture.
: Marketing and transportation ia
cilities.
The ten members of the commits
sion will be selected from the House
and Senate, five by the speaker and
five by the vice president, and accord
ing to present plans will organize
Immediately.
Subcommittee on marketing, f.
nance, transportation and distribu-
tion probably will be assigned to
investigate those fields.

PORTLAND COLLEGE
SENDS GRADUATES
TO DENTAL QUIZ
Scores of Prospective Patients Are
Turned Away at State Dental
Examination

A large number of dentists ar
rived in the city today from Portland
where they recently graduated from
the North Pacific Dental college, to
take the state dental board examina-
tiOns which are now in progress in
the house chambers at the capitol
building.
Today patients will be received
and practical work in filings will be
done by the applicants for dental
licenses. Twenty-four chairs have
been set up in the house chamber,
all OF which were filed throughout
Monday, which was the first day for
practical work. Scores Of patients
were turned away Monday because
there were not sufficient chairs to
accommodate them. Starting at an
early hour this morning people be-
gan arriving and by noon every chair
was filed. In the afternoon patients
had to be turned away as they were
on Monday. The very best kind of
dental work is done for the patients
all of which is absolutely free. Be-
fore patient leaves the applicants
work is examined by three doctors,
members of the board of dental ex-
aminers, who allow no imperfection
to pass their sharp eyes.
Make Sets Of Teeth.
Yesterday the entire day was spent
by the applicants. in making sets of
teeth. The teeth, numbering 28,
were set in wax mounted on an
articulator, which gives the same ar
ticulation as the human jaw. These
sets are passed upon when finished
by the board.
On Friday the actual examinations
start when ten questions are given
to the applicants to write upon. The
writing of these questions requires
one and half days work at the end
of which time the board will grade
the applicant on his work and issue
licenses to those passing the exami-
nations with satisfactory grades.
This dental board Is the only one
that corrects and renders licenses at
the dissolution of the board.
