The American conference on Infant Mortality which la cheduled for today, has atracted much interest among English sociologists and physicians. Investigators who have visited the United States assert that America is far behind Great Britain in this move ment Aa an instance It Is pointed out that In a few parts of the United States is . there kept an accurate record of births as such registration has not been con sidered necessary by the American health officers Great Britain has had such a law since 1838, and this alone It Is admitted, has been highly useful In saving babies. Congestion of popula tlon, admittedly the cauBe of much In fant mortality, is, necessarily greater . in , this "tight little Isle" than In the ; great expanses of America. .Six years ago Bruns Investigated 2, 701 Infants deaths In Berlin.

Shall be devoted to public Improve ments, are 'features of this plan. Obvious difficulties make the appli cation of the plan on a general scale . imipractlclble, and the Improved tene ments offer a more feasablo solution ' to the problem for the majority of the cities. The registration of slum prop erty .is advocated by some English In vestigators as a means of weeding out the undesirables and unsanitary tene ment houaes. Owners of Blum properties are not . narttrularv sensitive, as a rule, to their' responsibility as their brothed"a keeper; But no one can tell what tho ' future has in store.

It has been several years since the standard price of one dollar per fowl has been anything more than memory. It may be news to a large majority of our readers to know that our mar kets hold the hoof and horns of the animals killed until a sufficient quan tity Is collected to make a shipment, and are sent to San Franslsco where the greater portion Is consigned to Japan where they are made Into but tons and cutlery handles. The prices received by our dealers Is between $80 and $90 per ton. ; We will be compelled to apologize for the condition of our streets during another winter but his Is the last Another winter and we will see Adam avenue from the hospital to Gekelers lane paved aud macadamed. La Grande haa advanced this year. The completion of our new water system, which wil be a reality within the next few weeks, will be of untold benefit directly and Indirectly. Next year we will have paved streets, a new federal building and should have and un doubtedly will have a new high school building. This later necessity should be taken up and presented to the vot ers of this district within the next few months. It was defeated this year largely because the appropriation asked for would not have constructed and equipped a building that would have met the present requirements of Grande to say nothing about our future growth.
