ROS fiBURG, OREGON, PROTECTING OUU WILD LIFE GOVERNOR PATTERSON,' speaking before the Oregon Game Protective nsyoeiation, at its meeting; here yes terday, voiced the opinion that- the wild life of Oregon is one of the state's greatest assets. He went further in say- injr-'Jiat, with proper care, fish and game will soon become the greatest drawing power position he occupies and with the information which he has at'l'iis disposal, the governor should know. "''Within the past several months, . the governor said, many well-to-do sportsmen have made their homes in Ore gon because of its scenic beauty and' wild life. Their friends will come to play and will remain to live. Others will come and still others, until, within a few years, we will find the governor's prediction come true. . in the meantime it is up to us of Oregon and Douglas county to see that this wild life is preserved and protected to assure a plentiful supply in the future. There is no rea son under the sun why there should not be-just as many or more fish and game animals for the next generation as there are for' us. Common sense and reasonable care will accom plish this purpose. !' O ' When you talk about the future of aviation, you gen erally talk about airplanes. To most of; us the. dirigible, ..vhile fascinating to watch, does not figure greatly. It seems io clumsy, too fragile, liut Commander C. E. Rosendahl of te U. S. navy, who runs the Lakehurst air station, believes iiat the dirigible's future is quite as bright as that of the nlane. The commander recently told graduates of Haver i'ord college that in a few years huge dirigibles, six times thq size of the present Los Angeles, will be making regular commercial trips over the Atlantic. They will carry hun dreds of passengers in 'perfect safety, and huge quantities of freight, and will carry their own airplanes which they ., can launch and pick up in mid-air. Most of us, probably, will hope that he is right. The dirigible has a spell all its own. The thought of a mighty flying liner catches the imatrmation; it gives a tin ill that the quick, soaring airplane cannot give. v " Tlio first steel skyscraper ever built is now being torn do n in Chicago. Put up in 1887, it is now out of date, and ' iSTJwng removed so that a bigger structure can take its place. ; Exports from the American Institute of Steel Construction are watching the demolition witlj. great interest; For years . tlrei e has been; considerable discussion "about the way a .': building's steel framework will endure the changes wrought by passing years. Some experts have thought' one thing, ; some another; no one has been quite certain. Now, how- ever, they are goMig to get a chance to find out. Steel from ' this pioneer skyscraper will be put through all kinds of tests, !. so that the experts can toil definitely just what, if anything, 'A has happened to it. The new knowledge thus gained will :i prove of great value in future steel construction work. o I C. A, Lockwood is to be complimented on putting over his plan to centralize the efforts of hunters and anglers ;: throughout the state by slrcgthening the Oregon Game Pro- tective assoc'ation. The association is just what its name : implies and deserves hearty support.

By ROYAL S. COELAND, M. D. United States Sonuio from New York. Former Commissioner of Uu.l-h. New York City, I RECENTLY I had the privilege of addressing a group of house- wives. There were several thousand women in my audience and each one was vitally interested in improving her home. The time and labor saving devices on- display were of Intense interest to me. To be sure, it Is not within the means of every family to have all these things. I wish it were. But every woman can have her housework made lighter with Just a bit of good management. Electric washing machines, vacuum cleaners, dish wnshera, floor polishers, refrigerators, cake ' nirVcTs", ' irons.- manglei nnd all the other modern appliances lessen the labors of the overworked housekeeper, I would not have tho entire house keeping regime become a purely automatic per formance. But I would have it made us light and easy ns possible. If you cannot afford a largo dish washer, there are many small, inexpensive ones which will lessen your labor. One device has a nozzle nnd extra attachment for cjenning the pots and pans. There are food mixers which can be used for innumerable purposes. There are electric ice cream freezers, as well as small washers, large enough to do the baby's clothes, and many other garments. Those are ideal for the housewife who presides over a small apartment Floor polishers are made with mop and brush attachments so that thetr use la legion. In the """"t f where all the modern comforts are not ohtttlnable. mieh a machine, if electricity is available, would save manv a backache The nveritse carbapre can Is a fly trnp.

Edison presumes that SewelT and the di vorcee are- to be married. When the party breaks up. Edison goes to SpwcM'a home and, while he is awaiting his return, is informed Seweil has been found dead.- In spector Marx begins a- police in vestigation. He questions Sew ell's Russian valet. The elevator operat; or is also questioned. He did not see Sewell return. A' young medi cal examiner, with a taste for de tective work, assists' Marx. Their search of the apartment reveals complete wardrobes for women in different colors. In a safe-deposit box they find a scrap of paper hearing the Inscription, "Paid in Full". The following day a Major Preston, who has been a sporting associate of Sewell's, la interrogat ed. Then Sewell's widow visits the apartment. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY CHAPTER VII. "Now, Mrs. Sewell," Interposed the doctor, "what were tho rela tions between your husband aud the Major cordial?" "Cordial! They were like cat and dog! They trusted each other just as far as they could see." "I want to ask you something." Marx waved the doctor aside. "Did you ever ,cail your husband at his club and threaten him?" "Yes, lols of times." "Threaleu to kilt him?" "Yes." "Did you mean it?" "At the time yes. Hub t never had the courage. I'd go back to my medicine, and then oh 1 guess guess I'd just forget it. And theft i (i orooa some more, and I guesB I loved him as much as I hated him. Vou wouldn't understand that. I couldn't kill him. Hut I'm glad that he's dead! Glad!" She looked about the room. "They found me here. 1 was here only once. He threw me out. Ordered the servants down below never to let me up again." She laughed shortly. "Hy the way," intervened the doctor, "1 forgot to ask you this morning It I trust you 11 pardon this question if you were ac quainted -with any of your hus band's feminine friends." "I've seen them." Mrs. Sewell's lips were now a thin straight line. "Remember a- woman in blue?" "A woman in blue. You mean Mrs. Edison?" "Oh! Did you know anything of her relations with your husband? The widow laughed. "1 could guess.' "How about other women , woman in silver?" She shook her head. "I gave up Ion ago kepin; track of Mr. Sewell's girl frb'nds. I did know about Mrs. Kdison. gui'ss everyone did. She made no secret of it. She was wild about him. You, know, Oliver was a ladies' man. Oh. yes. He had ctiie I ricks. You know he made his big hit with them by never court in? them openly, lie would meet l hem at a party, and then enthuse over them to everyone. The news would get hack to tin- girl he was inter ested in. ami she'd he intrigued. He usd to boast he invented this met boil. This was Ihe sort of thing that occupied his mind." "Now, let me net this straight," interrupted Marx. "You haven't seen your husband In some time?" "Three months." "And nut Hide of yourself you don't know of anyone who'd want to kill him?" "No." she replied. "Unless it was the Major." "You don't like the Major, do you?" demanded Marx. The widow rose. "I guess you know by this time how much I like him." "!o ou know this Mapor's hand writing? Have you ivr seen it?" "Yes. Often. He wrote me let ters." Marx showed her the receipt from the safe. "lo you decotjnize this hand writing?" "I' certainly do," bhe replied , y. 1 SAMUEL SPEWACK Be Comfortable After a day of hot, dusty harvest work a good bath is worth the price of a bathroom outfit. Only, $55.00 WHVWAIT?.

"That peculiar I paid in full that's the Major's. I'd swear to ft!" "Now, mind you," warned Marx, "this is very serious. You know what you're saying?" "Listen, the widow loomed harshly. "I know what I'm saying. That's Preston's handwriting. I ought to know. I ll get up in any court aud swear to it." "He says it isn't." "Then he's a liar!" "You know something like this may help send him to the chair? You realize that?" A curious smile played in her shadowed eyes. "Yes, I realize that. And I tell you It's his handwriting." "All right," said Marx. "Now you're not leaving town? We can get you any time we want you?" "The doctor has my address," ihe widow said, rising and adjust ing her dowdy, black hat. She walked to the door, and stopped. "You know," she confided, "I feel almost young again. I want to sing. I want to dance. Thank God, he's dead ! ' And then a strange chuckle came from the figure in mourning as she swished into the corridor. Marx seemed dumbfounded and leaned back thoughtfully. "Think there's any chance of her having done It In a crazy min ute, and then forgetting it? Why's she so anxious to pin it on the Major? And then again why's the Major so anxious to pin it on hor? That's what gets me." Sergeant Curraway hustled into the room. "Boss." ho addressed Marx, "we've been busier than hell. Now here's the lay-out " "Shoot," invited Marx. "Mrs. Edison is the woman in blue. She was living at a hotel in the Sixties. We went there. And we found out she's disappeared." "Blown?" "Yep. Hasn't been hack since the murder., Took her clothes, checked out and beat it." Marx shook his head. "Go on," he urged. "Her ex-hubby's all right. Checked up on him. He was down stairs all the time, right up to the minute the guy was found. Got the taxi-driver who took him here from the club. Time checks. He was fol lowing them, and got here. You can talk to him if you want to. I don't know what he was following them for, but his alibi Is good." "Go on." Marx commanded, non committal. "We got the woman in silver, the woman in red and the woman in sold. This baby sure had a swell harem. We're trailing all of 'em. Here's the names and the dope." Carraway read quickly: "Woman in silver Mrs. Stanley Halliburton thirty-eight, socio' v. rich, old husband, no children, loves night clubs, goes in for sports, mixed up in a couple of scandals. "Woman in red Countess Nina Karnsova--Russian been in t his country for I en years well kept changes 'em once a year. Crazy about Sewell. Terrific gambler. Has swell apartment. "Woman in gold -nineteen, came to New York three months ago just niet Sewell a couple of weeks ago good-looking sweet girl graduaie- u:;nied Mary Penneli good family." Carraway snapi-ed hit notebook to. "Welt.'' asked Ihe doctor, "what's the next step?'1 "I'm going U get the D. A. to issue a warrant for the arrest of Mrs. Kdison." "Eh?" "Material witness." "Oh, 1 see." the doctor mused. "You are annoyed with her disap pearance." Marx was about to retort with heavy sareasru. when the door opened. The Russian butler ap (tea red and bowed slightly. "Kxrintp nip." h said, "but there is something bothering me. I must tell you." "Oh! Go ahead!" invited Marx. "I was so exHtrd when you talked to me I did not have a chance.

Aud 1 never see any one but Mr. Sewell. At first it was strange to me, but I have learned not to bother with other people's concerns, so I paid no attention, and it was a habit." "Wait a- minute!" interrupted Marx. "You mean that there was a woman here every morning, aud you made breakfast for two." "Yes," said the butler. "But I never see the woman if It was a woman. And it was maybe not a woman, because other women came here, but always there was breakfast for two." (To Be Continued Tomorrow.)

ALFALFA TOUR AND PICNIC AT DAYS CREEK SUNDAY An iilfltlfu tour and pfenic lays Creek Sunday was attended by more than sixty residents of that vicinity. Several important, alfalfa demonstrations have been conducted in the lnya Creek vicin ity, and yesterday morning an in spection was made of each experi ment. Tite tests wore made at the Ar chie Kuikusoii, Peter L'lam. J. I). Wright and Joint Ferguson places. At the first three named experi mental plots were treated to sul fur and land plaster fertilizer on the basiB of '50 pounds to the acre. The experiment showed 300 per cent increase over the unfertilized sections on the second cutting. Un treated land yielded .8 of a ton per acre, for the second cut, 2.4 tons per acre where fertilizer was used. At tiie Joitn 1'Vrguson place an experime nt was made with inocula tion. Alfalfa that had been inocu lated ran 4.32 tons to the acre on the riist mutiny, while .the unin acululed crop was only 1.2 tons per acre.
