the supervision of the state board of
eugenics, has sent word to Salem that

ments making the act more general
In its application. It is suld here to
day that about 100 persons hare un

the mental and physical condition of
the patient has been Improved.
Dr. Adair also was responsible for
the enactment of the law making It
incumbent upon men contemplating
marriage to undergo a physical ex
amination. This act, according to re
ports received here, may be amended
at the next session of the legislature

SLAYEB OP WOMAN SOUGHT.
LOS ANGELES. Dec. 21. Search
for the slayer of Mrs. Fay Sudow,
whose nude and mutilated body was
found in a small grove near here
more than a week ago, continued un
abated today.
District Attorney Woolwlne spent
several hours yesterday questioning
Edward S. McLaughlin, the "gray
bafred man," who was also taken
into custody after it had been learned
that he and Mrs. Sudow had been
much in company shortly before her
death.
Further effnrts are being made to
identify "H. R. H.." the owner of a
handkerchief bearing those initials
and found with the clothing that had
been stripped from Mrs. Pudow's
body.
A will leaving the estate, valued at
about $150,000. to Mrs. Surtow's only
daughter, Lucille, was found yester
day. It named Bernard Sudow, her
divorced husband, as executor.
ItAMFlS LIKED SHELTER
About SO percent of the lambs fed
in the shelter, vs. open lot tests at
the Union branch experiment sta
tion stayed In the shed In the morn
ing, 35 percent at noon at 20 per
cent In the evening of pleasant days.
Practically all of them used it in
stormy weather. The shed Itself Is
simple and inexpensive, but offered
considerable protection, especially
from hard winds. Methods of feeding
and results of shelter are fully ex
plained In the station bulletin. Fat
tening Lambs. Copies free on request.

HEETLE CONTROL
IS VERY EXPENSIVE
Barking the tree will destroy the
mountnin pine beetle, but will get
only a small percent of the western
pine beetle that is so terribly de
structive In Oregon timber. The
larvae of the latter beetle are found
In the inner bark, which must be
burned to kill them. Quite generally
great that It is not best to attempt
It until It is shown that the value of
the timber tared will Justify the ex
pense. Details of control are pub
lished In an O. A. C. bulletin entitled
'The Western Pine Bark Beetle."

of starving and diseased children.
Protestant, Catholic and Jewish, the
child life of Europe 1 threatened with
heartrending misery.
Th European Relief Council, with

ABOUT THOSE ADVERTISED
PHONOGRAPH PRICES.
M. M. Davles, of the Brunswlck-Balke-Collender
Co, who was in town

senting prices on the Brunswick
phonographs which we have on dis
play and are advertising In the News
Review. I would like to say that I
have never Intentionally signed my
name to a misrepresented statement,
and never expect . to. These are
phonographs taken In as part pay
ment on other makes of phonographs
and were rei -esented to us as having
cost exactly aa we advertised them
to have cost. However, Mr. Davles
and Lilburn A Son Furniture Co.
claim the $308 vlaue was only a
$200 machine and $58 worth of
records. Instead of a $250 machine,
which we understood it to be. We
will give $108 worth of reeorda In
stead of $58 worth, and the price
will remain the same aa advertised,
$190: original cost being $308 for
machine and records.
They also claim the $285 value,
advertised as a $200 machine, and
$85 worth of records. Is only a $150
machine. Therefore we will give
with this machine $135 worth of
used records, and the price will re
main the same as advertised, ma
chine and records for $150; original
cost of machine and records, $285.
mese are exceptionally good buvs.
considering the fact that machines
nave raised considerable since these
were bought.

Christmas Turkey
Price Is Dropping
PORTLAND. Or., December 23
The Christmas turkey market be
came unsettled yesterday afternoon
and there was a prospect that the
first prices would not be maintained.
The supply was not heavy as in
former years, and th high price
was an obstacle In moving receipts.
While there were plenty of retailers
on the market, they were by no
means keen to take on turkeys at
the ruling quotations. Many of them
declared their business had fallen
off In recent weeks, and they were
skeptical as to the chances or pass
ing turkeys on to the consumer at
60 or 65 cents a pound, retail. Some
of them declared they could see a
sign of an unorganised boycott on
the extreme prices of turkeys, while
meat and other commodities were
coming down.
The Front street firms that had
enough shipping orders cleaned up
at 64 and 55 centa. Others also man
aged to work off their stock at near
those prices, but not a few had more
than a comfortable supply on hand
at the close of business and their of
ferings at 63 centa found few tak
ers. It was the opinion that today's
receipts would be fairly large and I'
this is the case It will require active
buying to keep the market steady.

The chermlng story, "Milestones'
the featur attraction at the Autlers
tonight. I told In three episodes,
showing tb characters first In thii
year 1860, then In 1885 and flnallv
In 1910. thus giving exceptional op
portunity for period costume aa well
a quaint settings, features, which
make a strong appeal to almost all
persons Interested In motion pictures
and especially to women.
The aim of the authors Is to show
the bitter opposition of the older
generation agalnBt the more modern
ideas, progress and romance of the
younger generation.
This Is done by tracing through
three periods the fortunes of the
hhead and Sibley families. In each
or the two first episodes, the older
generations succeed to a treat ex
tent In discouraging and blocking
the progressive trend of the new gen
eration, and In controlling the ro
mantic deatinlea of the young men
and women. But In the modern epi
sode, both modern progress snd ro
mance are triumphant and John
Rhead, now an old. man, is forced
to bow to tbe Inevitable and admit
his defeat.
But a mere rehearsal of the Mot
can give no Idea of the stmpllcltv
nd quaint appeal of this story as
it unioiaa. in tne picture the an
neal, which as a play, won for It
hundreds of thousands of admirers.
.Some idea of the Urge and real
istic scale upon which Jack London

George Melford. hired a ferry boat

However, not all the episodes were
