Third 8t, Roseburg FREE ESTIMATES DAILY DEVOTIONAL DR. CHARLES A. EDWARDS One of the important secrets of victorious living lies in the proper estimate of relative values. Life always fails when we place the wrong price tags on its various" aspects. The story of the bandit who broke into a hardware store and changed the price tags so that a few nails were listed at fabu lous figures and valuable elec tric appliances were offered for a few cents is a parable of our modern spiritual failure. In the words of the Scripture Jesus gives His estimate of life's values. The soul of man outweighs everything he is able to acquire. That is true, be cause man really lives here and hereafter by what Is the center of his life, rather than by what he is able to accumu late. How true then, "What is a man profited if he gains the whole world and lose his own soul.'.' You see men all about us possessed by their possessions, ''If we live for worldly pleas ures, We shall see them turn to dust. If we seek immortal treasures Heaven shall recompense our trust."

Jan. 28. CP) Les ter Belgrave got a ticket for fail ing to renew his auto safetv sticker. A few hours later, on another street, he was stopped again and questioned about the same offense. "This is persecution," Belgrave declared. "What about that ticket you gave me on Stony Island Avenue?" "You must hnve run into mv Vol. VIII. No. 2 fh 1? IE BED That Silver Lining ', : Remember last week we promised you a little cheer for this weeks "Feed Bag." Well, believe it or not, FEED PRICES ARE ACTUALLY DOWN A LITTLE. And for the first time In years, It seems. At least, that Is the case down at the Douglas County Flour Mill. It Is a rare occurrence for feed prices to drop at ny time as we could prove by thou ands of poultrymcn. But for a drop to come at the si'.mc time egg prices are dropping, you will admit, is nothing short of a miracle. Well, miracles do happen, and the biggest one we know of is tiir.t ANY FEED COMPANY is still in business, after all that has happened these lr.st five years. It is true the price of eggs Is dropping. That always hap pens at this season. But the brightest side of this picture is that production is also on the up-and up. A hundred tlmci a week we hear the expression "We can't make any money on eggs, chickens or turkeys, because FEED IS TOO HIGH." It is probably true, what you have always xupcted, that Just about all feed companies are pirates. But If that was your only problem, this poul ' try business would certainly be a cinch. There is also the problem of low prices for eggs, fryers, etc. You can't do a lot about that either. But there are some things you can do something about! The pirates that probably rob you the most are not feed men or poultry buyers, hut worms, lice, mites, wet floors, poor sanitation, poor ventilation, poor breeding stock, et cetera, et cetera. Your chief job Is to lower production costs, and a win ning battle with the above mentioned pirates achieves that very thing. At 50 pro duction feed cost of eggs will be less than 20c per dozen. (Market Is 40c.) And turkeys and fryers can be produced on the same basis. Let's co-operate! twin brother, Warren." said Pa trolman Chester Doonan. "He's a traffic officer over there. "Go ahead. Buddy: one ticket Is enough, but don't forget your sticker.1' Oil Distributor Will Attend Sales Meeting ' . M.

Watch for It Published Weekly by the Douglas County Flour Mill, Mfgrs. of Umpqua and Sunrleo Poultry nd Dairy Feeds. Hatching Eggs Improve TJiere is f perceptible In crease in the- demand for hatching eggl This also is a seasonal proposition, since Bb6ut everybody Who expects to May In the poultry business has to order chicks. And this Is, the best tlrrit) of year to do it... , ; Most of the demand will cen ter on straight breeds for a few weeks, wa think, as most chicks wilt be " used for the maintenance , of production flocks, rather than for fryer production. Two things will determine who gets the best outlet for hatching eggs this season, when there is a little surplus; (Di the grower who has the best breeding avail able. (2) the grower whose eggs produce the most and best chicks per case. You will be more like to hold your hatching egg market If you feed your breeders Umpqua Breeder Mash, be cause we are able to promise you that all Umpqua Breeder Mash will contain all vitamins, proteins, minerals and other nutrient necesary for good hatches of strong livable chicks and poults. This promise Is to both poultrytncn and turkey men. New Rostburg Mntcheriet We have always advocated having your chlx bom as close to home as possible.

It will be known as the Look inggalss Hatchery, and will be operated by Mr. Carr. ; "June" advises all hatching egg producers to sit tight for awhile. The over-all picture for a market Is still, fine, though there is a temporary lull In de mand. The Hawaiian business is slated for resumption in a few weeks, which should help local producers. We agree with both of these men. We have all seen these same conditions before. Will see them again, since they come every year. If the poul try business Is your business, stay with it. And you will find that Just as the early bird gets the worms, she also lays eggs first, longest and most profit ably. Darned Spendthrift A couple men were criticis ing their wives.
