For thodist church, Tho school children in tho Vale, Ontario and Nyssa schools are writ ing 600 letters this week advertising the N. E. A. to be held in Portland, July 7-14. Each county in the state was given one state whose town and city school superintendents were to be reached through the school children Oklahoma is the state allotted to Mal heur county. Only the children in the three towns were asked to write let ters because they must be sent to Portland for mailing and the collect ing of letters from too many points would mean unnecessary postage. More than ordinary interest is be ing manifested in the Declamatory Contest which will bo held in Onta rio, March 31. At least eight and possibly nino schools will participate. Several strong contestants are pro mised from tho rural schools. The rural teachers seem determined to take the cup from the towns this year. Eva Neely is teaching in tho school above Ironside.

They stnrted homo at 3 o'clock as usual but had gone only a short distance when the bull gave chase. They reached the school house in safety but none too soon. THE SILO A NECESSITY The Silos Are of Great Vhlue in Mai-J heur County Is Part of Better Livestock Management. The stockmen are being hard press ed by the long winter, and loses have been reported heavy in some places. It is a case of too much stock and not enough feed, and more silos is the so lution of the problem. Silo has become the watch word of the corn-belt stockmen and it must become such in this valley. Think of the terrible waste last fall of the stalk fields, and now witness the scarcity and high prices or hay. True a few sheepmen have learned the val ue of silage and are making exten sive use of it, but most of them are still depending upon the straight hay rations. Many lambs have died this year and in fact every year because of the lack of some feed like silage. Sheep men know that an abundance of milk means that tho lamb will be owned and properly nourished, and Jioge is the feed that will .bring it aDuuc. Too much course hay killed a number of owes this winter, and this would have been avoided if silago had substitut ed for part of the hayi The Deseret Sheep company have found that thoy can not afford to not feed silage. They are now making plans to build two large silos on their Nyssa ranch. Mr. Dorman of Onta rio has also observed the necessity of silage and is also planning a silo. Mr. Clinton of Boise, Idaho, writes that silage fed to his ewes made more milk and better lambs, and more wool. Those facts determined by practical men have long been worked out by ex periment stations. The Utah Station found that two pounds of silage and two pounds of alfalfa gave about the same results as four pounds of hay when fed us a daily ration to range ewes. Figure .the difference in cost- and results. Sheepmen should heed these results and investigate tho silo as a business proposition. They can not afford tb be without a silo. W. W. HOWARD, County Agricultural Agent, (7ielSeW for Spring WHILE retaining all those qualities that have characterized and famed Gossard corsets in past-seasons, they strike a new note in corsetry a subtle change that is re flected in a more delicately beautiful outline and in an even more graceful flat back. Youth is the keynote in the style of these new Gossard models. Without any undue pres: sure you are assured abso lute comfort and freedom of movement because the Gossard secret of scientific boning assures-the most perfect support where, it is needed,' proper breathing is induced and the whole body thrown into the healthful poise advocated by your physician. This is the Thirty-second Announcement and Proclamation of Gossard Corset Styles for Spring and Summer, 1917 The new models vary in height of bust and length of skirt as" they should to meet the individual requirements of the various figure types, but the general tendency is toward less corset, lower oust and shorter skirts with a smaller waistline indicated by skillful designing rather than actually expressed.
