ASK EMPLOYERS TO
TAKE DISABLED VETS
Veterans Bureau Seeks Employment
for Men Restored to Usefulness
BY Training.

An appeal to employers of the Pa.
cific northwest to hire rehabilitated
war veterans when vacancies occur or
new jobs are created is being made
by Seattle district office Of the
the United States Veterans bureau
and branch offices at Portland, Ia
coma, Spokane and Pocatello. Several
hundred ex-service men taking voca-
tional training under the direction Of
the government are scheduled to
complete their courses this spring and
an earnest effort is being made by
the employment service Of the bureau
to line up jobs for these men to step
into upon their graduation, it was an
nounced.
A. e. McCabe, district head Of the
employment service, stated that a
special campaign has been started
among lumber and logging employers
to give rehabilitated veterans prefer
ence in hiring of men when lumber
activities begin this spring. The bu.
reau is in position to furnish scores
Of workers along office and clerical
lines as well as machinists, saw filters,
electricians, steam engineers, cooks,
timekeepers and commissary men.
War risk insurance cashiers have
been placed at Portland and Spokane
offices of the Veterans bureau, it was
announced. This means that govern.
ment insurance premiums, loans and
refnstatements may be handled large
ly at the local offices instead of at
Washington, d. G. The local service is
to be given war veterans in order to
stimulate insurance renewals.

Drug Store Shows Farmers.

RITZVILLE-A local drug store
conducted a demonstration in one Of
their show windows on the use of the
seed treatment for wheat. One hun
bred kernels of wheat were treated
with formaldehyde. another hundred

Copper Carbonate. The wheat samples
were planted in cigar boxes and al.
lowed to grow. The result showed
that 81 per cent Of the bluestone
treatment terminated; So per cent Of
the formaldehyde, Sc per cent of the
Copper Carbonate and 81 per cent Of

LARGEST MOTOR SHIPS BUILT
FOR ORE CARRYING

Two mo.or-driven ore-carrying
ships of over 10000 tons, dead
weight, are about to be built In
Germany to carry out a freight con-
tract with an American steel cor
poration. The engine room will be
located aft, and forward from 1t
will extend the ore hold, which
will be divided into three sections
by cross bulkheads. The hold will
be only 80 feet wide, although the
ship will have width OF u feet.
In the space on either side will be
large water-ballast tanks with a
total capacity OF $4,000 tons. Fuel
will be carried forward and aft
deep tanks holding $500 tons. T
ships will be propelled by two 3,0l
horsepower Diesel engines, but t
auxiliary machinery will be stea
driven. The overall length Of t
ships is to be 571.6 feet, and they a
expected to be placed in commissi
next summer.

DAIRY

That Clallam county il winning
reputation as dairy county is indi-
Gated by the fact that telegram was
received from Conrad, Montana, ask
ing for Is head of dairy calves to be
used by boys and girls club members
in Pondera county. A circular letter
was mailed to the farmers Of that
county giving the plan Of selling
calves from high testing COWS belong
Ing to members Of the COW testing as
sociation, which resulted in this sale.
A uniform price was placed upon the
stock in accordance with the prodsc-
ton of the dam.
A special cow testing association
has been organized at Forks and 500
COWS signed up for a years milk test.
The purpose of the association 10 to
provide a cheap and efficient means
for dairymen to determine the merits
Of their cows and compute costs Of
feed. Each farmer will take samples
of milk and furnish them to the Forks
Cooperative Creamery once q month
where the butterfat tests will be do
termined. I ,unty Agent A. w. Hol.
land Of Claham county assisted in tho
organization Of the new testing group.
The average farmer has the choice
Of two methods to secure 400 pound
butterfat COWS. One Is to buy them,
the other is breed them up from the
cows he now has in his herd through
the use Of sires whose dams have
proven their ability to produce 500
pounds Of fat year or more. He
might, tor, use combination Of the
two methods. AS an illustration OF
what can be done through the use OF
good sires the state experiment sta
ton at Ames. Iowa, increased produc-
ton $50 pounds in two crosses through
the use Of we'll bred sires. The farm
ers Of almost any community can gain
the use of the best bred sires in the
west through the cooperative bull as.
sociation. The cooperative bull as-
sociation is a farmers organization
whose purpose 1t is to comparatively
own, use and exchange meritorious
bulls. Many farmers are now raising
calves that are poorer in quality and
will undoubtedly be poorer in produc-
ton than their dams. The fault is
due to the inferior bulls they have
used. They must use sires bred for
production If they hope to breed up
their herds to the point where each
cow will make profit Of over $1oe
per year. This will allow the calf.
skinned milk and manure to pay Tor
the farmers time and labor.

In the surrounding stiffness.
