IMPORTANT MEETING AT
PORTLAND

On Monday, November z, poul.
trymen from the states of Idaho
Oregon and Washington, together
with state and college officials
from these states. met with repre-.
sentatives from California to dis.
cuss the Blvd. regulatory meas.
ure.
California advanced arguments
that the agglutination test is still
in the experimental stage and moi
a proper test on which to base reg.
ulatory measures; that the cost
(they claim 21sc a chick) is pro-
hfbitive; that the supreme court
will reverse the decision of the
Oregon federal district court and
that it is contrary to the best in
terests on the coast to continue the
measure in force.
The three northwestern states
very ably and amply answered all
of CALIFORNIA; arguments, taking
particular exception to the UNI
truthful and malicious propaganda
recently circulated in the states by
California hatchery interests.
1t is hoped the meeting has CIV
en- California a proper vision of
the work being done in the North
western states and that she will
fall in line with the constructive
program. If she does not and con-
tinues her propaganda against it,
she will find Washington ready to
fight back.
While Washington started this
movement the meeting at Portland
very strongly and conclusively
brot out the fact that Oregon and
Idaho are solidly in back of it.
The combination of high priced
feeds and low priced eggs last
spring and summer, while it played
havoc with the commercial egg
farmer, resulted in a large volume
of hens being marketed in the
middle west. This cut down the
supply of fresh eggs and caused
eggs to move out of storage faster
than they went in. The excess
storafe holdings early in the sea-
son fell off and on November LIST
the estimate was about 100000
cases less than a year ago.
Practically no demand for chicks
the tail end of the Matching seas
on. This means less pullets this
year. A slowing up of the rapid
increase in capacity of the large
commercial hatcheries in the mid
die west probably means less in
crease in chicks next year.

SIMPLICITY IN MENU
PLANNING

The mother of a family has a
great number of duties to perform
daily and one of her greatest needs
is for an opportunity to be free
for time each day to engage in
recreation or pleasurable occupa-
tion.
| In giving her help and advise on
nutrition it is not necessary to
make it so complicated that she
must spend unnecessary time fig
uring out menus. DIR. McCollum
has written a nutrition book. "The
American Home Diet" which
makes the planning of the family
dietary as simple as possible.
| TIE says: cit is not practical or
necessary for her to study tables
or fuel value and contest of pro-
tein, fats etc.. nor it is worth while
to visualize the 100 calories, pro-
teins of foods, because they just
complicate the essentials of nutri-
ton and make her feel that it is
impossible to apply them to her
daily routine"
DR.. ,McCollum feels that too
much emphasis has been spent on
the attractiveness of food and that
in many cases recipes are made so
elaborate that it requires too much
time for the house wife to pre-
pare them. Children who grow up
accustomed to never ending vari-
ETY. of foods acquire false and USE
less standards and mothers who
must prepare fancy appetizers are
too much tied to the kitchen. He
advocates the return to simplicity
of diet for the relief of the house
wife and the God Of the children.
DIR. McCollum feels that in the
case particularly of growing chill
dren and men doing hard physical
labor the appetite is the best reg
ulator of the quantity of food.
OF course there are cases where
this fails. For example it is pos
sible that in orphanages, assylums
etc., the inmates may not eat
enough because the food is of such
poor quality that the appetite
fails. 1t is also true that in some
good homes a child may fail to eat
enough because of exhaustion from
lack of rest or from excitement
for fear of being late to school or
loss of appetite from being scolded.
A satisfactory food supply alone
IAN not remedy mal-nutrition. They
must be supplemented by good
health habits, proper rest periods,
exercise. hygienic surroundings and
'lace of mind all play an import
INT role.
Adults should. Of course, use
ommon sense in measuring the ap-
,etites. Satisfaction of the appe-
lite does not require eating to the
tage of STIFFNESS. The old me-
nod OF measuring calories to, and

PROHIBITION is THE BEST
,--,..s.. STEP

One way of bringing home our
slogan is to contrast today under
prohibition with an actual and typ
lral locality in the saloon regime.
Many young people have never
seen a saloon; never walked by one
with its glazing lights and drunk
en- crowd; and yet an attempt is
being made to tell them this pro-
hibition era is worse than the sa-
loon era, with its accompaniment
OF unlimited cheap booze, red light
back rooms and the Iawbreaking
bartender. The opponents of pro-
inhibition are trying to tell our youth
that the furtive, outlawed, hard-to-

BIRDS FEEDING ON IN
FURIOUS INSECTS ACT
AS CROP SAVERS

Birds in general are useful as
well as beautiful. Without birds to
keep the insect pests in check it
would be more difficult to grow
food. They also eat many weed
seeds and so give better chance
for the planted seeds. The biolog-
ical survey finds, however that
some birds are not beneficial and
this branch studies the birds in
order to be able to inform farmers
and legislators as to their compar-
alive merits. As a general rule. the
birds that eat largely of insect
foods, for example, the wren and
the nighthawk are particularly
valuable. On the other hand, the
gray grosbeak and the brilliantly
soiored painted bunting are valu-
able because they depend for a
great part of their food, on troub-
.esome weeds. such as the foxtail
and pigeon grass seeds.
Inc barn owl, like other owls,
commonly is shot on sight. but
oughE not to be, for it is one of
Inc most serviceable birds in des-
Iroying small rodents, particularly
the pocket gophers in the west.
For us size, the house wren is one
OF the most effective BIRD enemies
OF the insects Wrens usually rear
two broods of young each year.
and the parents keep busy from
morning to night bringing food
for the hungry Young. The wren
diet is almost exclusively animal.
and a pair of wrens will account
for an enormous number of in
sects in season.

lem which exists in the upper Yak
ina valley. and we do not know
just how general these mice are
distributed in the county, but we
would appreciate receiving a card
or brief letter from anyone hav-
ing these pests in their orchard.
If it is found that there are
many orchards with any large
number of orchard mice present,
we shall be glad to take steps to
provide poison for these orchards,
for the control of the pest. Any
one interested please let us know
in the near future.

his fairness, his leanness, the child

to over weight and grandfather

foods which are not satisfactory

CERTIFIED SEED sPUDS

From comments made by people
who have been in a position to
study a number Of potato fields
we feel that there is a great need
for the use of certified seed pota-
toes in the county. Unless special
care is taken to weed out what
are known as the running-out dis
ease which includes, Mosaic, leaf
roll, spindle tubers etc, the yield
of potatoes will decrease. In our
work along this line in western
Washington we have seen yields
from certified seed as high as three
times that from common seed stock
grown lin the =, same. community.
While we do not have occasion to
study many fields this fall we do
believe from what fields we had
opportunity TO look over, that the
purchase Of certified seed is al
most an essential in economic pro-
ducti0n on many farms.
Certified seed has always sold at
a comparatively low figure consid-
ering the extra expense and bother
Oh RIUWhuS. li OEuiIldTy years,
price for certified seed stock has
been about $40 per ton above the
price of table stock of good quail
ity. We have had several quota
lions this fall on good seed stock
at $40 fob. shipping point. With
good seed at this price or any
where near that price, we don't
believe that the farmer can be
justified in producing their own
seed stock, except under very fav-
orable conditions.
One should keep in mind that
certified seed is of small size and
will cut to much better advantage
than ordinary seed stock.
We would at least advise farm
ers to purchase small lot of GER
titled stock of the same variety
that one is growing and plant the
home grown seed of the same va
riety side by side. just as a check
for one year, giving both lots the
same care. We believe most grow
ers would see that the certified
seed is an "A" number one invest
ment.

THANKSGIvING-Edna Kimnel

Ihis being the week in which our annual hoI-
iday, thanksgiving, occurs, it might be well
co stop and think of it not only as seTurkev',
day. but also refreshen our minds with the his
tory of it. 80 -
We all know the story of the brave adyen-
turous, and daring Pilgrim forefathers. who
came to this new land of freedom and JUS
tice Tor all; how they suffered, fought. and
some even died during the first hard winter in
the new country; how they made friends with
their red neighbors, the Indians, who out of
natural kindness gave the pale faces some of
their corn, which the down hearted PILGRIMS
received eagerly, treasured and planted with
great enthusiasm their spirits lightened by the
thought of bountiful harvest in the new land.
Their patient plodding was rewarded with a
goodly crop. They, being therefore grateful
for the generous gift from the Creator set
aside day of thanksgiving and prayer
Since that first Thanksgiving day it has been
observed in many states by an annual festival
appointed by the governor of those states.
The national celebration in recognition of
the years blessings first recommended by
George Washington in 1889, who set the twen-
ty-sixth of November as the date of observ-
ance for that year.
A proclamation, issued by Abraham Lincoln,
October, 1868, set the last Thursday of Novem-
Der as day of annual Thanksgiving; and since
that time it has been observed as a national
holiday throughout the United States.
