Some anxious parents are feeling; quite uneasy in these '. days, because their boys are playing on football teams. They ; read reports of accidents, and it is with reluctance that they ; see their own offspring exposed to these risks. When they ; attend a game and see the athletes piling up on top of each other, they are very much worried until the youngsters emerge from the tangle of arms and legs and walk off as if they liked it. There is a lot of risk in this world anyway, and such risks increase in some ways when the young people I go out from their homes to meet the ways of the world. They I may be taking ten times more serious chances through un- wholesome habits. Late hours and carelessness in eating may be a far worse peril to them, if they pnly understood it, than any hazards they take on the football field. The aver- age'football player probably runs considerable less risk on T the whole than those who sit on I because he is protected by his I from many perils to which those less vigorous are exposed, j . . : Also those wno ao noi get on ; to moral perils. If they are practicing on the gridiron, they are not getting into a dozen kinds of mischief which their as- socliites may be trying out. Football keeps their minds clean nnd wholesome, and the chances that they will go wrong and ; bring sorrow to their families, ought to be less than the av J eragtr. It is a splendid experience for any young man, and I many parents in Koseburg whose boys are getting it have J reason' for satisfaction. But athletic authorities should do ; their best to keep the games free from needless roughness, so that the physical risks shall be made as slight as possible, j : ; ! J It is not uncommon nowadays to learn that the tax rate , I in a certain city or other community is the highest in the I history of that unit of government. Such rates are imposed I in many places in spite of the fact that the scale of prices has J fallen considerably during the past three years. Many muni- cipal governments have been very slow to advance the pay of their help, and even now their workers may get meager e wages, l!ut this continued high range of tax rates creates frroauing among the taxpayers. A lot of them are likely to I take n deeper interest in municipal problems than ever be- fore, and to insist that public finance shall be handled with scientific efficiency. The time has gone by when people who I are not competent enough to make good in private business bhould be given public office. ' J:mes Mi'Clillon. who cot York Telephone company the other day, is said to have won ... . .. ,, i prtmiotion because at a time soon after the war when serv-!th. ice was not good, he admitted the justice of criticism and promised improvement and was very successful in winning A company that will place such men at its head will not have much difficulty in pleasing the people. Husiuess men in other lines could learn from Mr. JlcCullon. If the weather is such that the farmer can't grow No. 1 apples, he would better say so and admit they are No. 2's. The Prince of Wales stopped off on his long journey to , ms miH'iwi raucn, lor mice nours in Winnipeg, ami speni a good part of his time in playing a game of sipiash. Thereby he differs from the average American, who is apt to break a railroad journey by loafing around some hotel and groaning about the discomforts of travel. The prince sets Americans a good example. Jf they would keep up athletic exercise, they would not have to be carted around everywhere in auto mobiles. f they can't play golf or tennis, let them try to achieve ability to take a longer walk without fatigue than they could last year. -o- The spectacle of a l!i-year-old girl occupying a cabin in a secluded .section, a few miles from this city, with two men is a giMid example of child deliiumency, but a degrading ex hibit of loose morals. This is one of the many cases that come before the juvenile courts for disposition. It is no small matter to cope with girls of tender age who are thus inclined to be wayward and their future welfare is a prob lem that calls for more than ordinary precaution to curb their desire for a most destructive career in later life.

The huge walking beam that oper ates the drill was in use and hand led the great shatl like It was a mere toy. The hole is 16 inches in diameter, and will be continued this size until it may become nec essary to put in casing to keep out water. At present the drill Is working in what experts allege is oil shale, which is said to be highly satisfac tory indications at the depth at tained of a producing well being developed. So far. no water has been encountered, which Is also claimed to be splendid indication of Just the rinlit conditions, prov ing the wisdom of the men choos ing Leeper s liome as the place to start operations.

The men at the head of the com pany that Is putting down this oil prospect are mostly iJouglas coun ty people. Jude riteai us, of Oak- land, president, and W. L. Cobb manager of the corporation, are too well known in southern Ore gon to need an introduction. They aie kuown as men of much busi ness ability. Hut tiiese men. along with the other Incorporators, feel that the burden of currying on this development work Is too great for any one man or a few men, und ho after several weeks spent in placing the machinery, building the tower, and paying all the bills so far incurred feel that it has been demonstrated that this work is worth HUAtaiuiii. So It has been decided that they will ask the good people of tlio county to help them nuance the undertaking.

S Harvey Roser, a graduate of the Roseburg hish school, now a stu dent at Willamette I'niverslty, has beeu announced as the state win ner ot the American I.pglon essay contest on the subject, "Peacetime Patriotism." Mr. Roser wins a cash prize of $200. Mr. Roser was a member of the Roseburg high school debating team for two years, and was con- j sidered one of the strongest de- balers the school has had in recent years. He was also strong in liter-j ary contests of the school, and , was one of the leaders of his class. Following graduation he pre-1 pared for advanced education, and ; this year entered Willamette uni versity where he Is continuing his studies.

The new spray has several ad vantages over lime-sulphur. First, the cost is less than one half that of lime-sulphur; secondly, the con I trol of such pests as San Jose scale, oyster shell scale, red orch ard m'.tes and blister mites Is much greater than that secured by lime sulphur. Entomologists have round this I spray to be particularly effective in the control or red orchard niltes upon prunes and pears. Pear blis ter mitts have been controlled 100 per cent with this spray. The dor mant applications should be made when weather conditions are rea sonably settled as the highest ef- I ficlency is not reached unless 12 j to 24 hours of clear weather pre vails after application. I The spray Is made from three tied with water one and one half! I gallons to which has been added; one half pound casine spreader. This formula is used in each 100 gallons of spray material. The oil used is a low grade engine oil which can be bought in barrel lots for about 25c per gallon. A number of growers have used resi due oil from autos and tractors which has been' settled and strain ed. They spray has been found to cover the tree very effectively, due to the spreading effect of the oil. Investigators have not been able to determine the reason for this spray having a stimulating effect upon the growth and foliage of the trees the following year, which effect is certainly worth while. Within the next two weeks the county agent will demonstrate spray to orchardists In the follow ing communities; Garden Valley, Looking Class, Sutherlin, Winston and Kiddle. Growers of other com munities desiring a demonstration this fall are invited to write to or call on the county agent and the service will be gladly given. There is available at this time a bulletin that should be in the hnnds of every fruit grower, en titled "Preparation of Spray Ma terials." This new dormant spray will save the growers of the county many thousands of dollars yearly, besides gaining a high degree of efficiency in the control of some, of our most serious Insect pests.
