WALLOWA, Ore., (Hpuciul)
With the winter weather hanging
on welt In this community making
It' necessary to feed practically
every hoof of llveHtock, there Is a
steady call for hay which In said
to be gutting very scarce ut thin

heard of over the community. The
increased demand for hay has hud
a very strengthening effect on
prices and Home farmers who have
small amounts for sale are asking
as high us per ton while some
other lots are still being sold at
$20. (.'has. Oeohel, who was In ;

for a lay board chosen from the faculties of existing state
educational institutions to examine all applicants for licenses
to practice curative arts for sound educational training in
general subjects and in basic sciences.

Ueavor under which the application, has been made. It has
proved too easy for numerous applicants to iret Oinmni
licenses to practice when they have had very little lmsic trnin-
ing and know practically nothing of anatomy, physiology,
nnd other subjects considered essential If the practitioner is
to properly safeguard public health.
Since it is impossible for the lay public to know tho tvne
or extent of training enjoyed by those who have licenses to
practico any curative art in Oregon, tho state must

ana one Hint has had too little attention in the past in many
instances. As a public we havo been too much inclined to

poorly equipped practitioners.
