' ' the whole year 1914 and that all munition losses in the pres. ent fighting have been made good. The announcement indicates efficiency ' in munitions mak ing in England. There is simi lar efficiency in France. Italy too has shown strength in this line of work. The United jStates in some lines of effort is j already surpassing any other j nation, allied or Hun, and (when we get our stride the re sults will be still greater. j Proficiency in the manufac ture 01 warv materials, pius needed supplies secured through control of commerce, will do much to win the war. Mere manpower is helpless in battle. There must be equip ment A well equipped army, with adequate artillery, ma chine guns and aircraft, can de feat an army several times its size if the opposing army be lacking in these particulars. Before the war is over the allied supremacy in munition making is going to count and count heavily. This is' one of the reasons why the kaiser wants to end the struggle quickly. He knows that if he cannot win now he can never win. SiTFffiD HDDIl 93 LEADS IN PERFORMANCE The final test of any automo bile is its performance. What It does is more Import ant than what it is.

Our ordnance de guns than at the beginning of partment is now spending the Picardy battle and that all airplanes lost have been re placed twice over. Mr. Chur chill says that England now makes more airplanes in a week than was made during about $13,000,000 a day, which is just about the amount it an nually expended in peace times. Our production of rifles is now 11.550 a week, against 2,500 a week in September, 1917. To 'iT All r h W s 'SlMilllll.il.l.llMHH - J J iJ Jt -- 3m KEEP YOUR SHOES NEAT 1JOUIDS AMD PASTES. FOB BLACK.

GARFIELD United States Fuel Administrator Says: "Order your next winter's fuel no-yv. The great danger of a fuel shortage next winter lies in the habit of putting off ordering until fall, and under present conditions Oregon may experience a fuel shortage next winter due to a labor shortage, and the lack of cars sufficient to meet the normal seasonal demands.

Our navy, including the Ma rine corps, consisted on April 6, 1917, of 83,738 officers and men; it now numbers 352,752 officers and men. For months our war vessels have been pa trolling the ocean routes and have accounted for many sub marines and convoyed thous ands of ships carrying men and suDDlies to Europe. a . . - . .. . - A year ago there were Duna- ing or authorized for our navy 123 vessels; since then Hun dreds of submarine chasers and other small type vessels and a number of destroyers have been completed, and con tracts are now existing for more than 900 vessels. We have the greatest wireless ser vice in the world, stretching from Alaska to Panama and to Hawaii and the Philippines. EAT LESS WHEAT Vt't'HEAT is required to sup- ply our armies and al lies with food. One- third of the needed wheat can be obtained from India, one- third from Australia, and one third from the Argentine. By great conservation..this coun try and Canada can supply all. We all know that transpor tation is a vital problem now. Wheat from Bombay must be carried 12,000 miles, from Aus tralia 12,500 miles, from Bue nos Aires 6,250 miles, from America 3,000 miles. To get wheat from India, Australia, and the Argentine to our arm ies and allies would require just four times the ship ton nage required to supply them from this country. The duty of every American is to eat less wheat and buy Liberty Bonds.

Look to your coal bin; next winter may not be as mild as was the past season. 28 YEARS AGO (From the Daily Kant Oregonian April 2. 1890.) Supposed burglars entered the re sidence of C- S.
