o COURT HELD o public leivue ov ine COLLEGE of LAW WILlAME1TE UNIVERSITY A customer purchased a bottle of hair dye from a retail store. The bottle contained a warning that the ingredients o the dye might irritate the skin of some individuals who could be allergic to it. The instructions then des cribed how a person could ner. form a test to determine whether or not she might be allergic toj dye before using it. The instruc tions suggested that such a test be performed prior to each use of; the product. The customer used the dye without performing the test and as a result she suffered a skin irritation, and infection. She brought this action against the re tailer and the manufacturer of the dye. At the trial she admitted that she had read the instructions on the bottle but had not performed the test to determine whether or not the dye might irritate her skin. The defenant argued that though usually the seller of a product did warrant that it was merchantable, or of merchantable quality, in this case there was a warning of the possibility of a skin irritation and that he should not be held liable when the customer ignored this warning and then suffered an in fection. THE COURT HELD: The de fendant's contention was correct and the lower court was in error in awarding a judgment of dam ages to the customer. The court believed that the warning on the bottle was sufficient and that rights under a warranty would be lim ited by this explicit warning. (Tay lor vs. Jacobson, 336 Mass. 708, 145 N.

This is especially note worthy news, since the demand for Douglas fir seed is good. Although the crop is rather spot ty, with some trees being fairly Well loaded and nthprc havino nnlv a few cones, there should be lots of good picking when they are ripe. Do not pick them yet, however, as it is still at least a month too early, even for low elevation trees. Reports of the crop up the North Umpqua to Steamboat sound en couraging. South Umpqua Douglas fir picking will probably be best at higher elevations. A well-loaded "wolf tree" could yield 5-6 bush els. As for ponderosa pine there is no crop, while sugar pine is only fair. According to reports, t h e white pine crop is light and rid dled with insects which means no crop. Shasta fir has a crop and grand (lowland white) fir a light one. io prices are available at pres ent, but indications are that they will be as good as previously. Look for another article on cones in about 3-4 weeks, when more de tails on picking and markets will be given. LIBRARY ARRIVALS Life 0! Inhabitants k River Feature eral principles of law.

Contents of the volume reflect the thinking and efforts of more than 100 hundred American, citi zens.

"The poultry picture is changing fast in Oregon. We are importing most of the breeding stock used to produce hatching eggs and import ing more hatching eggs rather than exporting as we did for years," Rcitsma says. All of which means financial re turns are at such a low ebb that hatcheries are buying eggs and shipping them in cheaper than breeders can be produced right here in Oregon. Dealerships Down For the year just ended 355,315 birds in 286 flocks were under the improvement program both sub stantial drops from five years ago when 523,545 birds and 707 flocks were enrolled. The program is de signed to improve quality through disease control and breeding. Although dealers and hatcheries have dropped in number from 4S to 35, the actual hatchery capacity has climbed from 3.1 million eggs to 3.8 million eggs in fiva years. : Reactor Upswing ' Another by-product of the switch j from exporting to importing hatch cry eggs is an upswing in the num ber of pullorum reactors. Six pul lorum breaks were found in the year ending June 30, all resulting from importations. Also seven re actor breeder flocks were discover ed, four as result of imported : chicks and three infected by im ported eggs.

Dr. Richard H. Wilcox, state health officer, said most Oregon schools require such certificates be fore a child is enrolled. Requests for certificates should list the full name of the child and his parents, as well as the date and place of his birth. The fee lor a full photostatic copy of the birth certificate is $2. However, a birth registration card adequate for school admission can be obtained for $1. Orders for Oregon certifi cates should include the fee and be mailed to the Vital Statistics Sec tion, State Board of Health, 10 Box 231, I'ortland 7, Ore. Parents of children born outside Oregon should get their certifi cates directly from the slate health department of the slate the birth occurred, Dr. Wilcox said. try BAR-B-CUE SEASONING on CHICKEN 'id "outdoors Havoc" to pin fried or broiled chicken with Crescent Bar-B-Cue Seasoning instead of plain wit.
