STORE ORGANIZATION IN THE WORLD 1 IUIHIV(M JSMO 1 Hill to Curb Hoboes Medford bus adopted a plan wuich Rosebur ould do wU to tollow. Tbe police) department reports Hint the number of floatera ia comtautly Increaainc jnd something must be done aoon to curb their activities In aud around the city. The local poltc. department baa been very suc- ceaaful In keeping the boboea con fined to the jungles and railroad right of way, but some auch plan aa Medford baa adopted would doubt less be of great assistance. The Med ford plan Is given In the follow! n clipping from tbe Mall Tribune: There la consternation among the hoboes and other units of the float ing population of Medford following the city council's decision last night to have every homeless and money less man arrested as a vagrant and sentenced to saw wood at a munlclple wood pile to be established In the city. The council ordered Chief of Po lice Timothy to purchase a number of buck saws and bucks, to be used In making this campaign to enforce the floaters to accept work locally or get out of town. Until arrangements can be made for the establishment of a munlclple wood pile, the chief was ordered to put all such loiterers at j work on the public library wood pile. i ne cnier deemed to await a day before putting the work order Into effect, and this morning and fore noon went along the homeless and Jobless men on Haymarket sauare and in tbe Jungles along Hear creek. warning them that starting with Thursday morning he would arrest every man without a home of job, ror vagrancy, and if found guilty In police court, be would be put to work sawing wood. The city will pay such sentenced vagrants only fifty cents a cord for sawing and no money will be paid until atter each man saws his cord. It Is figured by the mayor and councilmen that when the news once gets about of the city woodpile the floating population all over the state and northwest will qulil.lv learn of It and henceforth give Medford a wide berth and that those Jobless now In Ibe city will depart for a more congenial location as soon as possible."

The weed Is tnoBt troublesome in Utah, Colorado, Arizona and New Mexico, and in the eaBtern half of southern California as well as In scattered areas in east ern and western Nevada, southeast ern Oregon, southeastern Idaho, and northeastern Wyoming. It was first reported to the depart ment In 1903 that a mysterious dis ease, characterized by vomiting, wasting away, and death, was attack ing sheep In Utah. The disease was at first attributed to Zygadonua I death camas), but several years later department bontaniBts observed that sneeze weed was usually found on ranges occupied by tbe effected sheep. Subsequent experiments cov ering five years fastened responsibil ity upon the sneeze weed. No effec tive remedy has been found, and sheep which do not die retain symp toms as long aa two or three years. The weed Is a strong perennial, growing to a height of 1 to 3 feet, with one or several stems. The plant when young Is often hairy or wooly, particularly the stems. There may be one or several flower heads, which are 2 to 3 Inches broad with ray flowers of an orange color. The sed are numerous nnd hairy. The plant occurs at elevations of 6200 to 12. 000 feet. Its best habitat Is on sunny slopes of the southern spruce belt In moist and well-drained soil. From the color of the flowers It la sometimes called "yellow weed," and some stockmen call It sunflower, but In Utah It Is commonly known as sneeze weed. The weed seems ImpracOcsble of crud. Cation. Digging out costs about 140 an acre, and cutting with a rcythn only stimulates growth. De partment scientists, therefore, see the only relief In acquainting stock men with the appearance and char acter of the plant and warning them to k"p their sheep away from In fested areas. 1'enple suffering from asthma write for Information to P.

Observance ef Theodore Roosevelt's birthdav on October 27 Is urged upon all posts of the American Legion In Instructions being sent out by na tional headquarters of the service or ganization. The 11,000 Legion un lta are asked to organize celebra tions of their own or to lake active part In exercises arranged by other community bodies. "The American army In France and in the camps at home never had a better friend than Theodore Roose velt," the Legion instructions read "If he had had his wish he would have fought and died at our side as It was, he fought the good cause at home until, like the soldier on the firing line, he fell fighting, with his face to the enemy. By his vigorous efforts for preparedness he made all Americans his debtors. No one will ever know how many American lives were saved to future usefulness by his appeals for adequate protection berore war came." I-egion posts likewise are cooper atlng wHh the Roosevelt Memorial Association In collecting memorials of the former President. Members of the organization in all parts of the country are surrendering letters which Col Roosevelt had written them, acknowledging applications for service In the division which he tried to form for world war service, along with other mementoes of the great American for preservation by the mer.Tlal soclnly.

PLANT DISEASES TAKE HUGE TOLL Farmer Suffers Loss of Income and Consumer Compelled to Pay Higher Prices. CONTROL OF PESTS IS URGED Can Bo Brought About Only Through Painstaking Technical Research, Followed by Adoption of Rem edies by Farmers. (Prepared br the t'nllad Statee Department , ef Agriculture.) When a plant cllwaw or Borne other crop pest destroys an important crop throughout a large area. It is easy to see how dangerous these posts are both to agriculture and to the coun try. The farmer whose crop Is de stroyed sudors through loss of bis Income ;the consumer often throtiKh ab normally Increased cost of his food supply. Occasionally, as In 1U1U, when the wheat crop of the t'ulted Slates aud I'm inula w as reduced approximate ly 280.U4J.UIO busbels by black stem rust after the entire exense Involved In Its production, except that of har vesting and threshing, had been In curred, the result is so serious as to endanger the stability of banks and of business generally In the devastated region and even, as In that case, to threaten the future of nations through Impulnncut of food supply when need ed for winning the great war. Take Heavy Toll on Crops. Rut spectacular and widespread de struction of crops la hy no means the only harm worked by plant diseases. K'very season and In substantially ev ery luiporant producing section they tuke heavy toll on crop production. Their existence without control con stitutes one of the chief hazards which tlte farmer encounter;, increasing his cist of production nnd ultimately the price which consumers must pay. It has been dllllcult to determine even approximately the amount of damage dune by plant dlsenses, but very careful estimates recently made hy the pathologists of the state ex periment stations nnd the- Department of Agriculture Indicate that In Will the productlim of ten of the lnqiortant cereal, fruit and vegetable crops was roluced more tluin WO.OOtMHH) bush els by plant diseases.

This Is essential In the origination and perpetuation of high yielding varieties adapted to lircni conditions.

This limitation, he declares, Is now a tiutvoraal demand, arising not so much from a duslre to lighten the financial burdens as from a fervent wish to avert the horrors of war.
