SIGHT ROSEBURS REWS-REVIEW, ROSEBURG, OREGON, MONDAY, JULY I, 1946" U ' :1 j X Trash Fire Rules Sfi!! Effective The burning of quantities of trash or slabwood within the western Oregon area without a permit is violation of a proclamn tinn made lv the state governor, lioseburg Fire Chi'f Glen II Tavlor stressed Saturday. The proclamation, issued In February, 1943, is still in effect and reads (in parti: "... do hereby proclaim that the unregulated use of fire in the burning of slash or debris within that part of Oregon west of the summit of the Cas cade Mountains is unlawful and shall be subject to the tol lowing regulations: "No burning without first se curing a permit from the State Forestry Service or a regularly appointed state fire warden; provided, however, that no per mit shall be required for the burning of debris in small quantities not within one eighth of one mile from forest land . . ." Oral fire permits for this vicln Itv may be obtained by phoning the Forestry Service at 98 for suburbans, and residents within Roseburg citv limits may nhone the city fire hall at 163. Much expense is saved, Tavlor said, bv knowing the addresses of all controlled trash fires and the exact time of burning, through the elimination of false alarms.

In those good old days when there was just as much stuff to sell as there were buyers to buy it, some business firms who were eager to please their customers were beginning to invite criti cism from their customers. The idea was to improve the quality of merchandise and establish better understanding between seller and buyer. It was a good idea, too. Here at the Douglas Flour Mill we used to say: "If you don't like it, tell us, but it you do like it, tell every body." It did you good to get a gripe off your chest and most every time we could explain everyining to your satis faction. And we are thankful that so many of you told your friends all the good things you knew about us. (At least, we were until we ran out of any thing to sell.) Of course, In these modern times of planned economy, no body criticises anybody who will sell anything. Used to be that when we bought something the merchant or his clerk would bow and scrape and say 'Thank YOU!" Now we go in and say "Don't suppose you have any thing to sell?" The merchant maybe says: "Why yes, we Jiave some glass elephants." We say: "Would you sell one?" He might answer: "Yes, one to a cus tomer." Well, of course, we don't need a glass elephant right now, but we have that spending habit, and the money, so we buy it and say 'Thank YOU!" Well, the time may come again when the law of supply and demand will be in effect. But in the meantime, if your chickens and turkeys are not doing or growing as well as you think they should, don't jump to the conclusion too quick that "it's the feed." Or even that "it's the lack of feed." The quality of what feed you get is very good. In fact, it is nothing short of a miracle that feed companies can do as well as they ahe doing. We have seen lots of birds that are doing swell, both in growth and production. So if yours are not, let's get to gether and see If we can't find some reason other than Wash ington, D. C. In other words, let's criticise the feed between ourselves, but let's get the best growth and production we can irom our flocks and herds. D. D. T, Is Dangerous. So Are Flies. Every paper and magazine these days is bulging with adver Special TABLE Solid CARLOAD Steel Cots Due to Arrive Orders Now Being Taken All above U. S. Mariime Commission-On Sale Now E tisements of D. D. T. in some form or other. Many wild claims are made for it, some entirely without foundation. Still a mer chant can't be blamed for want ing to sell. That's his business. And D.'D. T. is one of the few items that are not on the "hard to get" list. D. D. T. kills many kinds of Insects. Against many others it is entirely harmless. It kills honey bees, and if all the honey bees were liquidated the result ing food shortages would make OPA and CCC hang their heads in shame at their own ineffec tiveness. But D. D. T. will kill flies, and flies are carriers of many diseases among livestock and poultry as well as humans. Whenever D. D. T. is used at ail, it should be used exactly according to directions, and in places where it will not be harmful. At the Mill we have D. D. T. in several forms. We also have a large sprayer we will let you use for big jobs. Use it around the house, barns and poultry and brooder houses. Follow direc tions. For a better job, use our big sprayer. Just Luck. Friend: "Who introduced you to your wife?" ' Pal: "We just happened to meet. I don't blame anybody." Uh, oh! That's probably a mis take.) Note from teacher: "Mary is a good scholar, in telligent, but talks too much." Answer from Mary's Pop: "Yeah, but you should know her mother!" Cull All the Time. The feed shortage may do a little good. We see very few bum looking birds in most flocks. Indicating that growers, are disposing of these profit spoilers this season more than ever before. There probably never was a time when scrubs paid off for feed consumed and labor spent. Scrubs are kept through senti ment and pity, neither of which pays off in cash. Besides, the scrub probably doesn't enjoy life too abundantly. Turning on the Heat. We hate to continue using our advertising space to advertise tne bureaucrats down Washing ton way. But we have little to sell, and we thinki they may know whv. And we Bet tired of reading the lies they are getting I MATTRESSES $8.50 Canvas Folding Cots items declared surplus b July 1, 1946. into the public press day after day. So we would like to build a little fire under a few of them, and would like you to help fan it into a good blaze. You can start a balky mule that way, and it might, JUST MIGHT, work on a bureaucrat. Please, all our poultry and livestock producing friends; hammer away on your city friends this one theme: DON'T PUT ANY CONFIDENCE IN PRESS REPORTS UNTIL THEY HAVE BEEN COM PLETELY INVESTIGATED. There will be NO improvement in the bread and flour situation until wheat gets out of the news papers and into the flour mills. Usage will be held at 75 of last years' usage, and as time passes and reserves are depleted we will realize how little 75 can be. Tell your city friends that of the 500 ears of hominy feed and 500 cars of grain that the Gov ernment PROMI3ED US, a total of 18 have been received or are rolling as of this date. When your city friends get hungry Ibr bread and flour, make them realize it isn't because your chickens or cows got any wheat. Flocks are still being liquidated. Tell them that Ervin L. Peter son, Oregon Scc'y. of Agricul ture says: "All we have had so far is promises which the facts clearly indicated could not bq fulfilled, when made. The sad part is the government has wheat which could be used with out jeopardizing the famine re iief program. Mr. (Clinton) An derson. Mr. (N. E.) Dodd and THE PRESIDENT have the full facts concerning this matter." Now, who calls who what. Do you believe the Douglas Flour Mill now? Why not write the above gentlemen? Nor will food shortages be confined to bread and flour. Compared to 1919, following World War I, we have in the U. S. per 1,000 of population: 143 fewer hogs, 101 fewer sheep and iambs, 12 fewer milch cows, and 98 fewer other cattle and calves. Black markets will thrive. Prices will rise. Regardless of OPA. We MUST have produc tion. We must have it at any cost or else. As an example of one kind of black market, from Nebraska comes an authentic re port that corn is getting scarce; now it's one automobile for three cars of corn, where it has been running four or five. Yes, prices will be hlbh, but it will be worth a lot to get back to I sanity again. Phone 233
