The Postoffice Department is j l seeking the co-operation of the pat-j rons of the postal service in its ef-; forts to relieve the postal service of the burden imposed by the growing evil of Incompletely and improperly addressed mail. The delivery of matters, especially in the large cities, is frequently de- layed and oftentimes made impos Uible by the omission of an important ; part of the address, such as the . street number, or room number when addressed to an office building, local Government employes state. Not tn ( frequently the name of a street is ; omitted, only the name of the city j and state being given. Another l source of trouble is the practice of giving an address at the intersection ! of two streets without giving the lo cation of the corner, j The attention of the patrons is called to the foregoing suggestions, and their co-operation and assistance is sought to the end that better and j KA1I.KOAD NOW IX COt'KSE OF CONST IUCTION MAY BE EX TENDED TO TIDEWATER, AC ( O I i D 1 X G TO It EfVOK T E ROM COOS BAY.

The losses to date have, amounted to $s;i3,924.t;o. from which salvage of $.', 055.8 7 has been received. The net amount of insur ance at risk November 17 was $14, 61J,2 4r. While $100,000 was ap propriated for the bureau under the original act, the operating expenses have amounted to but $'A$. 113.70. L'nless the bureau is continued, says the report, and the war in Eu rope continues after the date of ex piration, the inability to grant war risk insurance on American vessels and cargoes in American vessels will seriously injure the business; and commerce of this country. ! High tribute is paid to the value! of the Federal Reserve system, th report saying our great prosperity; could not exist without It. L'nder the new system created by the Federal farm loan act, says the report, farm credits, the farming In dustry and the farmer will receive inestimable benefits. Kef erring to the pan-American financial congress in 1917. which meets in Washington, the Secretary says: "I cannot over-estimate the value of these conferences In bringing about a better understanding and promoting in this practical manner friendly relations and enlarging trade arid commerce with our south ern neighbors." There are several serious defects in the Harrison narcotic law, which has been in effect sixteen months, in the opinion of McAdoo. and there is urgent need of remedial legislation. A ConMresHional appropriation is urged for repayment of fines paid by parties convicted under section 8 of the net. which was deprived of effec tiveness by a decision of the Supreme Court. Treatment by the ( lover n tnent of persons addicted to the use of drugs is also recommended. The secretary recommends appro priations for a vigorous scientific Mmly of infant ile' paralysis by the public health service as a preventive of further epidemics. The secretary aain expressed conviction that the omnibus bill method of construction of public bu tidings pursued by thti Coveru ment fur t lie past 1 5 years has re united in the count met ion uf inan public buildings in small towns and Itioealitlcs where their need U not just tried by the cost and require ments.

Coke, of Marshfield. has just returned from Eugene, where he has been holding court for Judge Skipworth. The large majority given him at the recent election is a handsome tribute to his efforts ana his many friends are more than grati fied over it. In speaking of it today, Judge Coke said: "I wish to thank the people and the press of the Second Judicial District for the more than generous support and complimentary vote giv en me at the recent election. To have received such generous expression or confidence, not only in my home county, where I have spent most of my life and where the greater part of my difficult duties as Circuit Judge during the past seven and one-half years have been performed, but also in each and all of the six counties of this district, was a compliment be yond my expectations and it impress es me with a greater appreciation of my responsibilities to the people as their servant. The office of Circuit Judge is one which is over-burdened with great responsibilities and diffi cult duties, and. while conceding that, like all other human beings, I have doubtless made some mistakes, ft has always been my earnest desire and effort to properly interpret and administer the laws as I understood them. I accept the very compliment ary vote given me as an expression of approval of my past record and of confidence in my future conduct as a public officer. I shall not knowingly or purposely violate this confidence. I cannot hope to avoid making mis takes', but my errors shall never be deliberate ones." Coos Bay Times, WKKSTLKR IS HKKK.

Alum powders are not only cheap, but they differ greatly in leavening power. If a cheap baking powder is used for a fine cake and the cake turns out a failure there is a waste of costly materials worth more than a whole can of the cheap bak ing powder.
