POWDERED MILK
INVENTOR HERE

Description of the process Of
dehydrating milk without destroy
ing any food values or the butter
fat globules, was given by Pro-
fessor s. NJ. Dick, inventor, at
special luncheon this noon in the
Marion hotel by the Marion coun-
ty realtors association.
Establishment of factories
throughout the country are not
now being encouraged, Mr.. Dick
said, because the market for
powdered milk has not as yet been
established though it is being
developed rapidly,
To build a factory which would
consume 1000 to $500 pounds Of
milk hourly would cost approxi-
mately $4,000. This makes IL
necessary for a community to have
producing dairy herds OF 1000 TO
/ 200 cows.
At the present time there are
four factories in the United
States and one in Canada using
the process OF milk dehydration
Invented and patented by Mr..
Dick.

TWO BONUS BILLS
Being PREPARED

Washington, April 29.-Senate
finance committee, republicans, at

two separate soldiers bonus bills
embodying the plans proposed by
Chairman McCumber and Senator
Smot of Utah be drafted for con-
sideration by the majority, prob
ably on Monday.
The McCumber plan embraces
the house bill provision for adjust
ed service certificates, but with
the loan provisions broadened,
while the Smoot plan contem-
plated a paid-up 20year endow-
ment life insurance policy without
any borrowing provisions.
1t seems to be practically cer-
tain that the land settlement op-
tion will be stricken out Of the

BETTER HEALTH
W K PLANNED
7 !. NEXT MONTH
hization of a health weel

:: aization of a health week
camp~.gn committee from repre-
sentatives of different organiza-
tions of the city and sponsored by
the state board of health in con
nection with national health
week, dated for the latter part of
May will take place Monday after
noon at l o'clock in the CONNER
cial club.
A survey of the number of tu-
berculosis cases in the county is
now being made by Miss L. Grace
Holmes, who has been sent mere
by the Oregon tuberculosis asso-
citation and who is organizing the
campaign.
According to Miss Holmes there
has been 1856 deaths from tuber-
culosis in the county within the
last five years, but only 152 cases
reported to the state board of
health by physicians Of this coun-
ty. This means that there are
numbers of cases of this dread
disease that never come to the at
tention of the medical authorities
and that many die because of lack
of proper treatment.
With this number of deaths in
the county resulting from the dis
ease means that one persons dies
every 10 days from. tuberculosis.
These figures do not take into ac-
count the deaths in the state in
stitutions located here when the
case has been brought from other
districts of the state.
In the state at large there is a
death from tuberculosis every IA
hours.
1t has been estimated through
out the nation that there are five
living cases for every death. Fol-
lowing out these figures and ap-
plying them to Marion county,
there would be nearly thousand
cases of tuberculosis which have
not been reported to the authori-
ties.
Organizations such as the den
tai society, medical society, wo-
men'se clubs, school officials and
state. city and county health Off
cials will cooperate In making the
campaign for better health. The
complete program has not been
definitely worked out as yet, but
will include a dental day, when
all school children will be exam
ined for bad teeth; a tuberculosis
day, infant welfare day, and day
devoted to the general health of
school children. Zach day will
have it's clinic, and plays and talks
will figure in the program of the
different schools.
Due to the fact that the county
has no nurse, the Oregon Tubercu-
losis association has permitted
Miss Holmes to be here during the
health week to cooperate with the
health officials and clinics.
The tuberculosis survey, which
Miss Holmes will make is made
possible through the sale OF
Christmas seals.
