These are hard facts that can't be blinked. i TO get a slant on what boat rocking does to us, we don't have to reach out blindly into the realm of )urd theory. We have a hard and practiced example, be fore our oyes. 'In the Weeks immediately fol lowing V-J day, our economic fu ture seemed about as rosy as a post-war future could be. The world was bare of goods. Here In America, untouched by bomb or shell, was the mightiest industrial plant the world had ever seen all ready to go to work making the things the world wanted and needed. J Through the WHr ycarsi we had achieved a passably Working halt Mice between edntrollcd cosle and controlled prices. We were oil set to go ahead and make things in a big way.

Tho wclt-oltr-r!, experience-tested machinery for controlling wage costs was removed. What happened was the only thing that could happen, We had a wave of labor disagreements unprece dented In Our history. The Impact bf this wave upset the balance that had been achieved, and we have been floun dering In the flood waters ever since.

RODEO ACCOMPLISHMENTS " By CHARLES V. STANTON Another colorful rodeo has been successfully concluded. The Douglas County Sheriff's Posse is to be sincerely con gratulated for the efficient manner in which the second annual show was prepared and presented, few people realize the tremendous amount of work which enters into such an event, requiring hundreds of man-hours of labor in planning and executing minor details as major activities. ' - .. j The posse has had assistance organizations in. supplemental The Police Reserves are entitled to a"hand" for their work in controlling and directing traffic and crowds. Best of all, in our opinion, was the way in which the gen eral public entered into the spirit of the occasion. The week of western dress-up proved to be real fun, as all who par ticipated will affirm. It is expected that colorful western garb Will be it "must" in future years, and by next season stores probably will be better prepared to meet the demand for Clothing and accessories. But, despite shortages, Rose burg residents cooperated far better than had been expected and showed outstanding ingenuity and originality in pro viding makeshift costumes. Suggestions have been hiade in connection With future rodeos. Proposals include the pro curement of cartiival Concessions, nightly horse shows, ath letic contests, open-air dahclhgj etc., throughout the entire week. It is quite probable these arrangements eventually will be made, but the rodeo's development necessarily will, be slow because of inadequate financing. ' The Douglas County Fair Board assumed a heavy finan cial obligation in constructing rodeo facilities. The cost of this improvement was underwritten by several men vitally interested in the event. They are still "holding the bag" for a considerable atnoUnt bf money. Before the rodeo can be fully expanded, additional facilities must be provided. The huge stands should be covered, lights must be installed for night shows, pavilions constructed, and numerous other im provements made to the grounds, all of which will cost money. Until indebtedness Is retired, hew improvements can not be undertaken. The measure of cooperation shown In the Second Annual Rodeo promised that the financial obligations assumed by tho posse and fair board eventually will bo met, and that, in the not too far distant futilre, money will be available to start the program of development. We predict that the Sheriff's Posse Rodeo eventually will, become one of Southern Oregon's biggest shows, drawing visitors from every section of the state and becoming even more widely known than Roseburg's earlier day Strawberry Carnivals, .which older residents so well recall. ; ,. But the' rodeo has mtich more practical purposos tlian. simply entertainment and the attraction of visitors. One of its accomplishments Was amply demonstrated in Saturday's spectacular parade. This accomplishment is the revival of interest in good horseflesh. A few years ago it would have been possible to count the total number of good saddle horses without straining one's mathematical ability. But today rid ing horses number into the hundreds as parade spectators could observe. We have heard rumors that Christensen Bros., who fur nish stock for the more important shows along the Pacific Coast, are planning to acquire and equip a largo ranch in Douglas County to provide facilities for raising and keeping rodeo stock. Another rumor is that a large tiding academy is to be established near Uoscburg soon. These, and other developments (ire the direct outgrowth of tho annual rodeo. Tho Sheriff's Posse at least has proven that Roseburg no longer can be classed as a "one-horse town." Lynam Wins Top Money on Armory Wrestling Card Referee Elton Owen's decision i gave Joe Lynam victory over llillv MeEuIn In the final bout on Saturday night's wrestling bill at the Armory after each giapplcr had annexed a fall. The bill open ed with a five-man battle royal, from which Jack Poppenhelmer was eliminated and lieorgc Oil sette and Mike Nazarlan emerged as semi-finalists. Dusette, he ot the superlative arms and vulner able legs, lost the scheduled out fall to his Armenian foe In 18:37 by falling into a Huston crab hold. Through a misunderstanding, most of the 800 fans present thought the LynamMcEuin tussle was also slated for only one fall, with a 30-mlnuto time limit, and left the Armory after McEuin pinned Lynam in 23:45 via a bar rage of kidney punches. Those re maining in the Armory saw Ly nam even the score in flic second round with an abdominal stretch. In the remaining two minutes of tho battle, Viciously fought, neith er man gained a fall, but Lynam got the nod from Owen as top performer, carrying with it Ihe major purse of the program. Owen had announced through the "mike" prior to the opening of the bill that the final bout would be a two-otilof-threefall. 30-minute time limit affair, hut annarenlly the information was either forgotten by many present or confused with the fact that the semi final bout was only for one fall. The referee expressed deep regret over the misunderstanding and vowed to take extra precau tion against a repetition In the future. What's the Use WASHINGTON. D. C.

Padres Win Two Extra-Frame Tilts From Portland (By the Associated Press) San Diego did it the hard way, but when the dust bad cleared from yesterday's eight Pacific Coast League baseball games only the Padres had done any thing to improve their position in the Campaign. San Diego shaded the Portland Beavers, 1-0 and 3-2, in two extra inning contests. The other six teams, including the front-running Oakland Acorns and second place San -Francisco Seals, di vided double bills.

In the eighth-inning nightcap, scheduled for seven Innings, Jen sen scored the winning run in San Diego's 3-2 victory when Portland shortstop Brown, who had fielded Balllnger's grounder cleanly, was knocked down by third baseman Crawford, also trying to reach the ball. Oakland exploded for seven runs, including three homers, in the seventh Inning to win the first game from Los Angeles 8 to 2. Two of the homers were off Dobernic, who came In to relieve Lynn. The Angels came back in the second game, knock ing Ardlzola out of the box in the third and going on to win 4 to 3.

Spurt of Phillies Winning Plaudits Of Baseball Fans (By the Associated Press) Baseball fans, every ready to cheer for the underdog, have switched their allegiance trom Tom Yawkey's millionaire Boston Red Sox to Bob Carpenter's from rags to-riches Philadelphia Phil lies, who threatened today to holt Ihe National League's second di vision where they've held an Iron clad lease for 13 years. They arc now In sixth place, only one and a half games away from fourth place. The Phils earned a victory and ft tie In their douhleheader with Ihe Cincinnati Reds yesterday. Both contests were overtime duels, with the Phils winning the first game 5-4 on Tabor's th inning home run for their fourth in a row, and the second halted by Pennsylvania's Sunday curfew law with tne score tide at j j ai the end of 11 frames. Bosox Win Twice The American League leading Boston Red Sox appear to be back In their winning stride after their double drubbing of the Cleveland Indians 5-1 and 60. Jolted by eight losses in their last 10 games, the Red Sox re ceived a much-needed lift by the Boston pitching debut of Bill Zuber. The veteran righthander, obtained only last week from the New York Yankees via the waiver route, hurled a splendid three-hit shutout in the after piece following Harris' six-hit performance In the -jpener. Ted Williams, who drove in two runs in the first game, poled his 16th homer in the third inning of the second. . , , Yanks Defeat Tigers The sweep enabled the Red Sox to increase their first place lead to seven games over the Yankees, allhough the Bronx Bombers defeated the Detroit Tigers 10-8 in 11 innings.

As the fellow who was short of Rrub said, "If we had some ham we'd have ham and eegs if we had some eges." Likewise, a discussion on scratch feeding falls pretty flat when there is no scratch. As any poultryman knows, the Government planners have succeeded perfectly In one thing: They have scrambled up the pol durndest mess in the feeding business the world has ever witnessed! From California comes this word: "The present shortage of proteins is resulting in an excessive and Inefficient use of crains." Here, the situa tion is just the reverse! For years we have been urg ing freer use of grains, in order to lower costs of production of meat, eggs and milk. And now look; prain Is the one thing we can't get. If we only had some thing to barter! All over the country that is Ihe way to get things. First get hold of something scarce, then you can barter it for most any thing you need or want. For in stance, who ever heard of swapping a car of lumber for a car of corn? But stranger trades even than that are becoming common. The heck of It is, if we started with a fancy wrist watch, we would wind iip with a two-bladed knife with one blade broken and the other missing. But just in case you could fiet some scratch grain make I go as far as porjible. There is bound to be lots of barley in it, and chickens and turkeys don't like barley. Don't let that bother YOU. More than likely you don t like the OPA, but you have to take it. As long as your, birds have 'barley in their troughs, they .are not being hurt by lack of scratch grain. In tome states barley is the principal ooultry feed. . . . Laying hens can do very nice ly In hoi weather with from 8 to 10 pounds of scratch per hundred birds per day. Timcts or Iryers on good range can do well on a third grain and two thirds mash. And young turkeys never care much for grain until they are around three months old. Some barley from Califor nia's new harvest is starting this way, aiid Oregon and Washington new wheat harvest will get going in another month. So If we just continue (o play our cards close to our chests, we might still surnrise those brain trusters and produce a few pul lets and turkeys, not because of. but In spite of their careful ciantslng. ,"! i Joe Kahaui Slated to Fight Tiger Jack Hughes PORTLAND, June 24. 1& The Woodburn farming fighter Joe Kahut will box Tn?er Jack Hughes, of Los Angeles, in a 15 round heavyweight main event here Friday night.

CLEARANCE FORCED TO VACATE Prices Cut On All Merchandise STORY ILES CONFECTIONERY 211 N. Jackson A SICKS' SICKS' BREWING COMPANY SALEM, OREGON IK it Don't Feed Worms. A few vears ago very few flocks of poultry or turkeys were without heavy Infestations of tape worms. Today, such cases are rare In Douglas coun ty. By the same token, we never found round worms in turkeys until a very few years back. In fact, even the exDeriment sta tions argued that round worms would not infest turkeys seri ously. To our sorrow, we find they were wrong. Many a fine flock of turx as well as chix has turn ed into a flock of crooked breasted, spindly legged, skinnv, anaemic scrubs as a result of harboring ordinary round worms. P. T. Z. mash has been very efficient in some flocks. Tobac co dust Is also good. But if your birds arc in very bad shape, we have come to the conclusion the proper method Is to round up the flock then poke a good worm pill down every little gul let. Cule Kid: "I wonder what's the matter with that man over there? He was so attentive a few minutes a"o. and now he won't even look at me." The Lady: "Perhaps he saw me come In, Dearie. He's my husband." Shell and Crit. Tests conducted at Cornell show that feed required per doz en eggs was lower when both oyster shell and hard grit were fed. On oyster shell, granite grit and a laying ration, 4.36 pounds of feed produced a dozen eggs, which at present prices would mean a cost for feed alono of about 15c per dozen. The Douglas Flour Mill has plenty of grit and two different kinds of ovster shell. And it will cost you plenty, too. - - A Pressure Croup. "Did you lead Clara to the al tar?" "Well, not exactly.

There is much honest opinion on both sides of this question. It ranges from those who agree with Chester Bowles' prediction of dire disaster to those who honestly believe that the good old tried and true law el "SuEp'y ani Demand" v.!!!

But the writer recalls wintering a herd of $100.00 cattle on $35.00 hay in 1919, and being unable to sell tne cattle in W20 for the pre vious winter's feed bill. Most "old-timers" remember the "Harding Deflation" which fol lowed so closely the inflation dun to Wnrlrt WftP T Men ho long period of prosperity which 1 .luuuwca me adjustment. Certainly, prices will jump when OPA is discarded, or when certain products are de-controlled. The reason is obvious. The pressure of plentiful money against Drlce ceilings of scarce items Is like confining steam In a boiler wtih tho pop valve screwed down too tight. The remedy is to adjust the pop valve, release the surplus steam, after which pressure will regain its normal level. These thoughts are addressed to everyone, whether you hap pen to be a producer, a laborer or a business man. Price control affects all. As subsidies are removed, the price you pay apparently will rise abruntly. That is only the visible price, however, for even the most rabid New Dealer must admit that subsidies are nothing more than Concealed Inflation. Subsidies are the can dy coating of bitter pills. They must be paid eventually, along with interest and the salaries of those doctors who administer the pills. 'Twill be SOME doctor bill! Higher prices are inevitable! And don't forget when . they come, or as they come, that they are not all caused by the junk ing of OPA. You are being told that; and will continue to be told that. But before OPA is dis continued, remember that every day for weeks past, it has in creased prices. Don't be kidded into believing killing OPA caus ed all high prices. Individual enterprise, full pro duction, supply and demand, and competition made America a land of plenty and the great est country on earth. The bu reaucrats have made it a land of famine and scarcity. Let's get back to the proven formula and go ahead again. Write your Congressman. ' More Publicity. There is another big lot of feed In the newspapers this week. It ranges from corn "lu ten and hominy to malting bar Iry.
