ROSEBURG, OREGON, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 21, 1929. OUR PUBLIC LANDS THE NATION, liberal weekly magazine, is circularizing newspapers in the western states which have public lands, with its edition of Septemler 11, containing a marked article entitled "The People's Soil." The federal govern ment, sonorously pronounces The Nation, is the natural guardian of those lands as "the remaining natural heritage of all the people." All or what people? The Nation, of -n i ho .winnlo nf nil tho United States. The COUIOU, Jllvmio on niv- ... ;.. .,;,.ii on n,id,rn dictions that President Hoover's tentative proposal for re turning the surface lands to the states will ue vigorously opposed by eastern senators and representatives in congress. . . l.l .. ,.,.,f -.Toiliuf Hint' it. IS nOt ailllCUll lO JIiar,e lUKltnl wsuiium B"" .view. The western states which still have public lands have had no share in the benefits from public lands, for instance, in New York or Massachusetts or Vermont. The state of Oregon is a distinct political entity in itself, not a mere cor ner in a super-state. . Its lands might be regarded as a na tural heritage of Its own people. ' "Not that anybody out here is throwing up his hat at the prospect of getting state possession of the mere surface rights to the remaining unreserved federal lands within its borders, wihch are of the most part of very doubtful value. But the eastern view as apparently indorsed by The Na tion is that reserved federal lands at least are valuable and the East will therefore insist on keeping them federalized for the benefit of the East and oppose the Hoover suggestion as a possible step toward ultimate return of all federal lands to the states. "What's yours is mine also, and what's mine is my own" is the eastern dictum. o i The Sutherlin Sun, published yesterday, says that J. E. Dimick contemplates moving his sawmill to a site on the S.'P. tracks in the city of Sutherlin. It has been found to be good sound business judgment to haul logs to the railroad instead of milling the lumber in the woods and hauling it to tho railroad. Among the reasons for this fact is that help is easier obtained in a town and is better content. Dy-pro-dutits such as wood, low-grade lumber and sawdust are easily saleable and render an added profit. There is a large amount of fine saw-timber adjacent to Sutherlin that will be tnilled there some day. If the Dimick mill is 'moved to Sutherlin that will have a good start toward a future of in dustrial prosperity, - . .::!: o . .'IIThe Roseburg community is almost daily makins greiiter use and obtaining more enjoyment from the Rose buyg Golf and Country club. Thursday of this week eighty women gathered at the club and played golf and bridge. Loonted as it is on the banks of the beautiful North Umpqua nri&wilh a fine club house and marvelous green golf course, thi)!Country club is one of Roseburg's greatest recreational assets.

CA USES OF EPILEPSY STILL DEFY SCIENCE Dr. Copeland, Giving Some Thoughts on This Strange Malady, Calls Attention to the Growing Belief that a Body Infection May Be Responsible. By ROYAL S. COPELAND, M. D. United States Senator from New York. Former Commissioner ot Uealth, A'cto York dtp. I N the letters coming to my desk diseases of the mind and nervous system. Many people ask me about epilepsy and what can be done for Its relief. When I was a boy in the lower grades 1 had a schoolmate named uusisa DR COPELAND an infection ol some sort may be the root of the trouble. It is wise for the epileptic to be given a thorough physical exam ination. Every effort must be made to discover and remove every possible source of infection.' The progress made in the cure of func- tioniil luaanity by getting nd of body JiSvTJ noticeable by applying hot and leal profesdlun u cumin more and l more to recognize the serious effect upon the system whirr follows the absorption of infections found in the teeth tonsils, sinusi-s. generative or gans and particularly the intestines. It is expected that these poisons constantly absorbea by the hlood must have serious effect upon the nervous sytein. Any poison, whether it comes Trom within or without the body, if taken In repeated doses is sure to create unpleannt symptoms. It may well be that epilepsy may bo founded upon such a disturbance.

Even in that remote day I expected to be a doctor. The teacher knew this so she always assigned me to the duty of taking care of Willie. He was my first patient! 1 don't know who uld me to do it but the first step of my treatment always was to keep the teeth separated so as to prevent biting of the tongue. J.1 kept a woodch clothes pin for this purpose and my first effort was to get it between his teeth. Aside from washing his face and preventing his harming himself in his con vulsive efforts, I recall doing nothing else. In fact that's about all a real doctor could do.

Her vismng cara, ior instance, still readB: Mrs. John Smith or Mrs. Alexander Smith. She still signs the hotel register, Mrs. John Smith. And she still uses this for mal name Mrs. John Smith when accepting or rejerettlng for mal Invitations. All letters ad dressed to her should be addressed to Mrs. John Smith.

' Success in Egg Production. Labor Saving Devices. Strawberry Outlook. What a Nickel Can Do. Newberg Association. Wheat Market Sluggish. (By SEYMOUR JONES) State Market Agent, The U. S. Bureau of Agriculture says that producers of winter wheat should not plan their 1930 production wiih the expectation that wheat crops In foreign coun tries will be so short as lo provide market for their wheat equal to that of the present season. Should tanners carry out their expressed intentions this fall to seed a wheat acreage 1.2 per cent greater than seeded last fall, with average abandonment and average yields, production would continue to be well above domestic requirements and the 1930 winter wheat crop must be marketed upon an export basis. With normal or average yields in Canada, Argentina and Australia, producers must count upon keen competition in world markets. The world market for wheat of the 1930 crop will prob ably be no better, and may not be as good as that for the present season. The Eggsamlner, official organ of the Pacific Poultry Produce, advises its patrons thus: "To raise the standard of quality of your eggs cannot be urged too often or too strongly. Proper conuilions oi temperature, cleanliness, careful packihg,- handling and transporta tion, better internal quality, firmer shell texture, all contribute vitally to an adequate profit In the poul try business. Quality is the basis on which everything else rests. Produce high quality eggs. An exchange says that a well known cattle feeder uses an ordi nary litter carrier to transport feed from the bain to toed bunks. This carrier runs on a cable sup ported by posts. The cable extends across the feed lot above the bunks. He uses the carrier to haul silage and chopped corn fodder from the barn, thus saving himself many steps. He can alBo back a wagon load of corn up to the bunks and use the carrier at feeding time to transport it to bunks at consid erable distance. On the basis of reports from growers as to acreages planted and planned for the 1930 season the prospect for strawberry grow ers now seems to be better than at any time since 3926. says Agricul tural Bureau. Growers in the moat troubled areas are preparing for substantial reduction in acreage for the country as a whole amount- Hospital Insurance The new idea, a modem plan of health protection.

APPRECIATE WORK OF FIRE DEPARTMENT Riverside, Sept. 21. Editor News-Review: We certainly appreciate the kindness shown us on the occasion of the fire In our midst recently. Autos by the hun dreds visited us and the occupants were not all curiosity seekers either, as manv rave s welcome hand In fighting the flames and ( saving as much of the property as i they could. I know how good the fire truck looked with its hardy crew. That was an eloquent appeal to us to be a part and parcel of the the beautiful city of Roseburg and have a working interest in Its mod ern facilities, which are ours for the asking. We also acknowledge receipt of the aviation field, handed us with out financial gesture on our part. Should the courtesy of the fire department ever be required at my building a check will promptly issue from me to partly pay the expense.

Editor, Roseburg News-Review. Dear Sir: Doubtless many people, reading of the opposition reported to be de veloping against the North Ump qua highway project, are wonder ing how and when they would pro ceed to develop this valley so as to obtain for themselves and poster! ty a home market for their pro ducts. Such a project completed would fill our hotels and autc camps with yearly increasing thou sands to be fed largely from pro ducts grown within a radius of twenty milea of Roseburg, and ev ery other industry in this vicinity would feel the expansive impulse. Shall we wait another forty years to see if some unwary capi talist will not start whoopee for us? Our own history compared with that of Med ford, Eugene and Seattle should Inform us that capi tal is not usually attracted until the people of any given community show thefr own faith in its re sources and ultimate destiny. Se attle had to build its first railroad and lay coal on its docks In compe tition with Taeomn. before the great transportation companies would pay any attention to their wants. Los Angeles had to annex a harbor and twenty intervening miles before shipping companies would consider it as a terminal city; and Eugene had to form the Lane County Asset company and ing to 7 per cent below the 197,000 acres picked In 1929. , Five cents In form of oldctrlcity will do a great many things. It has been figured out that a nickel's worth of electric current generat ed by a farm light plant will milk ten cows, separate 1400 pounds of milk, church 20 pounds of butter, sharpen an axe or a scythe on the grindstone six times, pump two days' snpply of water, run an elec tric sewing machine five hours or do two large washings. The Growers' Cooperative asso ciation of Newberg, organized In 1927 for the purpose of canning, drying and marketing fruits and vegetables, reports business for the past year amounting to more than $1,000,000. Its total assets to March 31, 1929, amounted to $152,728. The membership at present numbers 320. The Portland grain exchange at the close of last week stated: "The market remained in the same state of indecision that has been no ticeable the past three weeks. Sen timent is still bullish, but buyers are holding off for cheuper wheat jn view of present conditions. Cables are discouraging.' start a railroad to tidewater before the Southern Pacific would con sider it more than a way station. And what about the wealth of the nearby acreage In these viclni' ties? When producers can market their own products here at the eastern prices, and pocket the freight they would otherwise have to pay to some distant terminal, they will laueh to think that they ever entertained an Idea of fi Kilt ing a five-mill tax to start the wave of prosperity and wealth that has engulfed them. But there s no use areaming. or wishing that something might be a little different. We, ourselves, must be the go-getters. : "Heaven helps those who help themselves, is gospel with all capitalists that I've read or, and they are better able to wait a generation or two than we are. So, when the highway commis sioners come to bear the objec tions, let every booster from Riddle to Sutherlin and from Looking glasB to Glide be on hand to show how and when they want this de velopment to start!
