Judge DuttOn Thinks Barratt
Had Dropped Into Poetry

While in Portland during the past
week, State Highway Commissioner
Barratt was interviewed by an Ore
gonian reporter, and the following
appeared in the Those Who Come
and Co column Of that paper:
The feminist movement has made
inroadS on the sheep, and young ewes
are regular happerS,' observed W. B.
Barratt, 4 sheepman of Morrow
county and a member of the high
way commission. Mr.. Barratt, who
has been busy lambing, arrived in
Portland yesterday to consider the
awarding of about $4,000 worth of
road Jobs, The sheep business
doesn't lock very good just now, "
said Mr., Barratt. The lambing on
the range is only about 60 per cent,
which is very low, the reason, proba-
bly,, is the long, cold winter, which
has affected the animals. The old
ewes are all right, but the young
ewes refuse to accept their lambs
they decline to show any maternal
responsibility and run away from the
little things, The consequence is
that when the lambs have been ne
elected the first two days by their
mothers they die and the range is
covered with dead lambkinS, victims
of maternal indifference and ne
glect. | suspect that the modernest
ideas have hit the sheep range"
The Journals MAN About Town"
ran onto Judge Dutton a few days
later at the Imperial hotel, and this
is his version placed upon Mr.. Bar
rats story:
Judge" Dutton of the Heppner
colony takes exception to a state
ment attributed to W. B. Barratt that
his sheep are affected with modern
ideas and that the ewes of the young
er generation are shirking the obi
cations of maternity by refusing to
nurse their young. Nowhere in the
world says Judge Dutton, will you
find the maternal instinct stronger
than in the flocks of Morrow county
There are no Aappers among them
| don't believe Bill Barratt said it
If he did, he was indulging in poetic
license. You know, he is like Silas
Wegg-he sometimes, drops into po-
etry.'"

Quota of Soap.

If all the soap that is manufactured
annually in the United States could be
fioated-and much of it could belt
would represent a tonnage not greatly
less than that of the United States
navy, battleships, cruisers, destroyers,
submarines, transports and all. The
bureau of the census has just issued
figures for 1919. according to which 3
432, 2,591 900 pounds of soap was manu-.
factured in the United States that
year. That is 1,216,295 tons. These
figures are for all forms of SOAP
Figured on the basis Of the present
estimated population of the country
there is produced each year twenty.
two pounds Of soap for every person
In the country, although there is per-
haps no commodity which varies more
In point Of individual consumption
than this one. More soap is being pro-
duced in proportion to the population
than in the output of twenty years
ago-about five pounds more for eyery
individual in the country-New York

on the country or third class roads; and
also that tax on gasoline be levied as
partial means of maintenance of all roads.
The people of the State desire good rol S,
