To him logging looks like "a
pretty hard life.". He says he'll
"stick to miming cows."
Russ sailed from Auckland, New
Zealand, to Vancouver, B.C., Can
ada, on the. Arorangi, a Union
Line ship.
Washington, D. C, was his des
tination first. After a week there
he spent two months on a Ver
mont dairy farm observing farm
methods and family life. He tra
velled back to Washington for a
one-week international 4-H camp,
then headed west
Before coming to Douglas Coun
ty, Stalker spent some time at the
Astoria research station watching
tests on pasture improvement and
management.
Niagara Falls was his first sight
seeing stop in the United States,
since he traveled east across Can
ada from Vancouver.
"They're quite a big place," he
remembers. "I was under them,
over them, and all over the
place," he said in explaining that
he really got a good look.
"One of the most beautiful
cities In the world," is how tii
describes Washington, D. C. "It's
something to be proud of." He
was particularly impressed by
Washington's "well-kept appear
ance," nice wide streets and beau
tiful monuments.
New York was different. "I
didn't feel very comfortable
there." he said. "The place was
too big. It doesn't seem real some
how. "
Admitting tha tNew York is
"worth seeing," he told about go
ing to the top of ths Empire State
building, seeing several Broadway
shows, and trips to the Bowery
and Chinatown.
His "uncomfortable" feeling in
New York .City probably came,
he said, because he's unaccus
tomed to large cities. Auckland,
New Zealand's largest, is smaller
than Portland, he explained.
The "good organization" of traf
fic In the U.S.'s largest city im
pressed him.
Eastern cities were a bit more
crowded than he likes, so he pre
fers the West. We're more like
New Zealand out here because
we have more gardens in our
towns, he says.
Clamdigging near Astoria was
a new experience for him. "We
didn't get out early enough," he
said. "There were about 1000 be
fore us."
The New Zealand youth got ac
quainted with American youth
while serving as a boys' counselor !
' at Camp Lane, a 4-H summer
camp located about 40 miles from
Eugene for a week, '
"They talk a lot more than New
Zealand boys do," he learned. He
noticed a definite lack of Infor
mation about foreign countries.
"They ask a lot of intcllig?nt
questions bid. they know very little
else than about the United States,"
he pointed out.
Stalker comes from a dairy
farm in Rangiora, located on
South Island, New Zealand. Ho
and his mother run the 220-acre
farm. His father is dead.
Their 90 milking cows, part of a
total stock of 140, supply 2.230
pounds of whole milk a day, Thev
sell this to the town of Christ
Church, population 2,000.
He was one of four New Zea

Stones in the kidney, ureter or
bladder are quite common condi
tions. They appear more frequent
in males than in females and mere
common between the ages of
around fifteen to forty five years
f, se. .
Infections in the kidney a r e
probably one of the greatest caus
es of stones. To form a stone it
is necessary to have a nucleus or
beginning. Accumulations of pus
and bits of Infected tissue com
monly form this nucleus. There
fore, it is Important that infec
tions be recognized early.
Stones may be formed also by
the supersaturation of urine with
certain crystalloids, such as the
urate crystals, calcium oxalate
and calcium phosphate crystals
and occasionally by cystine crys
tals which is usually due to a
stasis or retention of urine within
the kidney or ureters or bladder,
possibly from some malformation
or by a fold within the ureter or
any involvement that may obstruct
the normal excretion of urine.
There are many indications that
diets too rich in calcium and uric
acid may produce stones. This is.
however, probably very rare and
neds merely to be mentioned.
Diets which arc deficient in cer
tain vitamins, particularly vita
min A, have also been suggested
as causes of stones. In general,
however, if an individual cats- the

plenty of green vegetables, and

In numerical order, the first was
dimpled Margaret Ann Smith
whose talent in stock was singing.
The brown-haired beauty sponsor
ed by the Umpqua Valley Grange,
sang "I'm Yours" and "I Wish
I had a Girl."
Second on the list was Marlene
I.utey, sponsored by the Junior
Chamber of Commerce. With dra
matic endeavor, she recited a
reading from John Steinbeck's
"The Moon is Down."
Returning to the musical side,
dusty blonde Marjorie White play
ed a flute solo adapted from the
Andante movement of Mozart's
Piano Concerto No. 1. It was the
only instrumental talent displayed.
Blonde Valerie Sparks drew her
talent from dancing. The pert love
ly danced a tango and a jitterbug
number with her partner Bob Sin
clair. Janis Dowdy, sponsored by Or
ganized Labor, returned to a dra
matic vein with a frothright read
ing from Du Maurier's "Rebecca."
With a clever deviation, Barbara
Peterson introduced a fashion
show of dresses she sewed for
wear in a single day, from morn

Marilyn Frentrcss of Myrtle

Addison Arthur Shaw
Of Garden Valley Dies
Addison Arthur Shaw, 58, resi

Aug. l after a very short illness.
He was born July 1, 1896, in
Marie Center, Vermont, and came
to Rnsphurff in 1940 tn malt hi
home. He was an employee of the
commercial L-Dr. Ac bales LO. OI
Dillard.
Surviving are three sons: t.eo
Shaw, Troy, N. Y.; Arthur Shaw,
Koseburg: rrancis Shaw. Eureka.
Calif.; a brother, Elmer Shaw,
Pittsfield, Mass.; two sisters: Mrs.
Mable Kirchner and Mrs, Marie
Piatt, both of Pittsfield, Mass.
The body has been removed to
the Roseburg Funeral Home, and
funeral arrangements will be an
nounced later.
U.S. The 4-H Foundation plans and
finances his tour of this country.
Now he's on the Crumpn,r
ranch getting acquainted with
Laurie, 17, and Barnie, 16, the
Crumpners two sons.
He's already shown them a
"new deal" for hauling hay, say
the Crumpner boys.
Stalker has given them other
ideas too. Crumpner is consider
ng building a new barn. "But
we're going to change our ideas
now," say the boys, since the
New Zealander has given them
some cost-cutting ideas.
The Crumpner's visitor leaves
for another Oregon county on tha
10th. He'll go back to his native
country in October.
But while he's here, Russ is go
ing to "find out how the people
live, how they farm, what their
outlook is, what their plans arc,
and what they're aiming at."
when much fluid is lost by pres-
piration, This gives the kidney lit
tie to work on and consequently,
the urine becomes concentrated
and there is little flow. As a re
suit of this condition, particles
accumulate, forming a nucleus for
i a stone,
Kidney stones are divided into
the so-called silent and the active
ly moving type. The dormant type
or silent stone may have been
present for many months without
the individual having any know
ledge of Its presence. The stone
may have been discovered when
the person had an examination
for some other condition.
If the stone is of any consider
able size, there is usually a dull
aching pain in the back of the af
fected side; this pain is more pro
nounced when the individual is up
and about, but it does not entirely
disappear when he is lving down.
Tenderness can be caused when
making pressure over the kidney.
Blood and pus are found upon
making a urinalysis. This varies
in quantity according to the size
of the stone and whether its ori
gin is due to infection or to chem
ical changes in the urine. The tak
ing of an X-ray is usually per
formed to complete the diagnosis,
however occasionally some of the
stones are radio-lucent and do not
show by X-ray, this occurs only
In about 5 per cent of the cases.
Water dilutes the urine and elim
inates the tendency to the forma
tion of kidney stones. One should '
average eight to ten full glasses
of water in a twenty-four hour pe-1
riod, especially in hot weather. '

No Shortage
Of Harvest
Workers Seen
Unemployment in Oregon is
running from 15 to 30 per cent
higher than a year ago and no
serious shortage of harvest work
ers is expected for at least an
other Week or two, according to
reports from local offices of the
state unemployment compensation
commission.
Claims for compensation filed
since the beginning of the 1952-53
benefit year July l have reached
14,787 as compared with 12,603
a year ago, while payments to in
sured workers last month totalled
$469,150, an increase of 31 per
cent over the same period of 1951.
Only one area. McMinnville!
now has an actual shortage of
narvesi neip, although. Salem, Eu
gene and other valley offices an
ticipate heavy demands bv mid-
August. Labor surpluses were re
ported from practically all dis
tricts despite considerable bean
picking during the past week.
With both shelters and trailer
space available at the Dayton
farm labor camp, McMinnville
now can use about 50 more fam
ilies in Yamhill county. Housing
is fairly well taken in most areas,
but many farms have cabins and
other facilities for groups.
Hops, pears, and other la'e
crops will add to the demand for
harvest help during the latter half
of August, according to reports.
Picking of caneberries and other
early crops has been completed
in most districts.
