He admitted Hits morning that
he did nut believe the prediction
was accurate and was not expect
ing from, but decided when the
warning was imiued to play safe
and E'J made prepa;ationH to meet
tl'.e emergency If it should arise
He watched the thermometer and
when the temperature began drop
ping below Ihe danger mark he
called out his crews and started a
Ih-jlvv smudge, which resulted In
the saving of nearly 4l2,0U0
worth of melons In one patch.
Preparations are being made to
day to protect the fields again.
Straw Is being I11111I1.1I und pljed,
smudge pots are being made ready
and healers are being provided, as
Mr, Fletcher Is predicting low lent
peraiures fur tonight.
Ilecause of Ihe growing import
ance or Ihe melon industry in Ihe
l.inpoua valley an elTort will prob
ably bo made to secure frost data
service In connection with the
weather bureau before next sea
son. Tho local observer Is badly
handicapped In making his reports
and warnings due lo the lack ot
information regarding conditions
In other parts of the country. A
special service l.i pHjvlded for of
fices where frost data Is compiled,
but so far the Itoseburg office has
not been able to secure these daily
reports, duo to tho Inadequate fi
nances of the department.
L'mptiuu valley melons, however,
are gaining such a wido reputa
tion that the market Justifies a
much greater expansion of the in
dustry. Next year the production
is expected to be more than double
tho volume of this year, so that
the value of the crop will be an lm
IKrtant factor to the county, and
in view of tills siluallou It is be
lieved that frost data service Is
necessary.
In many of the localities the
weal her bureau has mrn especial
ly appointed during the fall sea
son to look nrter the frost data and
Issue predictions. In fact, this Is
done at Modford and several oth
er places In Oregon, nnd growers
believe that tho Importance of the
melon Industry In I ho Umpqua val
ley Justifies similar recognition
for Ibis locality.

A very interesting article regard
ing infantile paralysis appears in a
recent issue of The Parents' Maga
zine, conveying some important in
formation concerning diagnosis
and treatnlent. Approximately one-
half of all Ihe crippled children in
the country, ft is stated, owe their
disability to this disease. While
the disease is comparatively new,
ft is said, enough has been accomp
lished lo show that it is caused by
a germ, and is often carried by per
sons who themselves are unaffect
ed, but transmit the disease to
others.
"The onset of the disease," the
article states, "Is usually quite
abrupt, with fever, headache, and
a gaHlro-Intestinal disturbance,
constipation, drowsiness and a de
sire to be let alone. While these
symptoms as a rule are fairly con
stant, they are not at all unlike
those seen in many of the ordinary
upsets of childhood. As a rule the
child seems more prostrated than
one would expect with the fever,
which is usually not over 102. The
face Is flushed, the expression
anxious and there is frequently a
pallor about the nose and mouth to
account for the child's condition.
The pulse Is as a rule unusually
rapid, There are often tremors or
twitchinga of the muscles, an un
certainty In movement of the arms
or legs. The most suegestive sign
in a stlffneHS of the spinal column.
The Impression one gets Is that
the child Is attempting to hold the
-jpine erect as if it were painful to
bend it; the head may bo tilted
forward on the neck, but it will be
noticed that the neck la held rigid
ly." The action of the spine, it Is
utated, Is best tested by having the
child sit up In bed and bend for
ward and try to plac$ its head on
its knees. The normal child can do
this easily, but if affected with in
fantile paralysis will try to bend
from the hips and hold the spine
straight- Stiffness of the neck and
spine, it is Baid, is the most signifi
cant symptom, and in such cases a
physician should be called wiinuui
delay.
NON-SUIT ORDER
GIVES VICTORY TO
SAWMILL OWNER
O, E. Cook, sawmill operator at
Drew, who was arrested on a civil
complaint filed by the Douglas
Creditors association, was released
from custody thia morning when
Justice of the Peace C. F. Hopkins
granted a motion for non-suit.
Cook, according to the charge
brought by the Douglas Creditors'
association, borrowed money and
gave a mortgage on a specified
amount of lumber as security. The
note was not paid, it was claimed,
and when the association sold the
lumber to the Coen Lumber com
pany, it was found that there was
only about 18,000 feet instead , oi
35,000 feet as previously stated.
They charged the defendant with
converting the remainder to hie
own use.
The defense, after the plaintiff s
evidence was submitted, moved for
a non-suit on the grounds that the
evidence failed to show conversion,
if any, on the part of Cook, the
claim being upheld by the court.
Notice of appeal was given.

In Nationwide Tests
A new international record has just been established by Behnke-Walker Business
College in the nation-wide speed and accuracy typing tests conducted by the Remington-Rand
Typewriter Company. For the first time in history Behnke-Walker did
the unprecedented thing by leading the foremost commercial schools of all America
twice in succession. And prior to these ocean-to-ocean tests it already had a sub
stantial lead over the finest schools on the continent from New York to San Fran
. cisco. That is why it is recognized as '
" America's Gold Medal School"
The marvelous showing made regularly by Behnke-Walker students reflects the
proved quality of the college and PROVES that its methods, its large faculty of ex
perts, its splendid equipment PRODUCES WINNERS. It explains why the de
mand for graduates is far greater than the supply and this in face of the fact that
Behnke-Walker fills an average of OVER 1000 POSITIONS A YEAR. It explains
too, why the largest, best known business concerns habitually look to this college
to supply them with ambitious young men and women.
