SILETZ CITIZENS
MEET WITH COURT

A large delegation of Siletz people
were in the city Tuesday evening for
the purpose Of meeting with the
County Court to see if means could not
be devised whereby the bridge on the
Toledo Siletz road could be rebuilt
this spring.
The Siletz people were hard hit by
the flood and the loss of their bridges
was perhaps their biggest loss.
Where 1t formerly cost rs cents per
hundred to get freight to Siletz, 1t
now costs so cents. There are hun
dreds of sacks Of potatoes In the 81.
letz country with no possible chance
of marketing same whatever.
A number of eloquent and touching
speeding were made and the Court
expressed disposition to do all In
its power to hasten the rebuilding of
this one bridge.
The delegation was unanimously in
favor of suspension bridges, express
ing belief, that had suspension
bridges been built before, that the
high water would not have taken them
out.

Walls Of Starving Children As.
sail the Ears of Relief
Workers at Eriyan.

The tragic progression of famine
conditions in Armenia is strikingly
shown in the personal reports brought
back by State Director ]. j. Hand
saker OF the Near East Relief when he
visited that section last August, and
in the letters that have been received
at intervals since.

the fact that the orphanages were fill

Self selected little naked girl with
nineteen others from among hundreds
of starving children to fill the only
possible vaca,lcies in the orphanage at
Erivan at that time. However. the
weather was warm, and the refugees
could manage in some way to keep
alive. Reports from Erivan in late
September told Of the coming of the
cold weather, and how the reserves
we're drawn upon for the opening OF
additional spup-kitchens.. Starving
men women and children from all Sec

Near East Relief stations in the hope
OF getting werk. food and clothing.
Two months later, under date of Nov.

to DR.. Esther Lovejoy, of Portland,
Oregon, who Is national chairman of
the American Women's Hospitals,

Treating Spuds With Hot Formalde
hvf1a

E. A. Savage Of Pike Creek town
ship has a new method of treating
potatoes with formaldehyde. It con-
sists Of a galvanized tank 2 feet wide,
? feet deep, and feet long, placed
over a trench dug into til e ground. The
tank is supported by iron pipes. One
end Of the trench is open for firing
and the other is covered except for a
stove pipe which takes off the smoke
and gives the draft.
This new treatment was worked out
by DR.. j. E. Melbus, plant pathologist
at the Iowa College Of Agriculture. 1t
consists of soaking the potatoes for two
minutes in a solution Of one pound of
formaldehyde to- Is gallons of water
the solution kept at a temperature of
l2o degrees. A variation Of degrees
either way, that is from 1lS degrees to
l22 degrees, is permissible. A dairy
thermometer is kept in the solution to
see that the temperature does not gu
above or below these points. With
proper equipment, bushel a minute
can be treated. Mr.. Savage said he
treated rs bushels in SIS minutes, using
wire baskets which he filed with po-
tatoes and lowered into the solution.
With 6 baskets fully l bushel a min
ute could be treated. A watch; or
clock is hung in a convenient place
where the treating can be timed to
exactly two minutes.
There is big saving in cost by us
ing this treatment and it is much fas.
ter than using cold formadehyde or cor.
rosive sublimate. The cold treatments
require one and half hours for treat.
ing and the hot formaldehyde but two
minutes. Cold Tformaldehyde is efec.
tive against scab only, whereas the hot
formaldehyde is protective against
black scurf or rhizoctonia and black
leg. The corrosive sublimate is effec
tive against these diseases.
After the potatoes have been treated
they are emptied on the floor and GOV
cred with a canvass for about an hour
or until the fumes have completed their
work against the diseases.
Mr.. Savage called County Agent
Campbell out to his farm to witness
the treating Of the potatoes, and after
seeing the work done Mr.. Campbell
stated that he believed it would be the
coming method of treating seed .pota
toes, especially where a farmer had thu
necessary equipment and was treating
50 bushel or more of seed. Mr.. Savage
treated his early potatoes today ant
viii treat the late potatoes early mex
week. He extends an invitation to any
one interested in the treating ~appar
atus to come, to his farm and look il
over and witness the tfeating"if pos
sible.
