It would be interesting to the readers of The Oregon Voter to know why Mr. Moore’s articles on paving have been turned over to the “Oregon Country.” Per­ haps Mr. Chapman will explain, but it is hardly likely. Children May Sell Dandelion Selling dandelion roots at 4 to 6 cents per pound offers a pretty fair premium on removing the dandelion pests from lawns, fields and pastures. Since 100,000 pounds or more are im­ ported annually into tbe United States it seems that many a young boy or girl ought to make fairly good wages by collecting and preparing dandelion roots for tbe drug trade. The root is used medicinally in diseases of the liver and dyspepsia, reports H. S. Hammond, of the O. A. C. Botany department. Digging up tbe root for control and also for securing the maximum amount of material for sale is beet accomplished by the use of a spud or stout bladed knife. Tbe plant grows so low that the frequent cutting of tbe lawn with tbe mower does not seem to have as good ef­ fect as with taller weeds. The plants must be destroyed below the crown of the root in order to kill them and of course it is necessary to go much deeper in order to get most of the root, which is thick, tapering, and sometimes fully twenty inches in length. Another method of control is spraying with iron sulphate. Tbe spraying must be done on bright days and at frequent intervals to be effective. It will pre­ vent them from maturing seed and ac­ cording to experiments in Dakota and Rhode Island it has been known to re­ move the pest entirely from the lawns. Except that it is a nuisance in lawns the dandelion is not a bad weed, since its leaves are eaten by most stock and form tbe basis of many a mess of greens for the home table. The leaves are also frequently eaten in salads early in the spring, both in Europe and in this country. Hints Lor The Housewife Housecleaning time is tedious and tiresome, but if the housekeeping is properly managed it need not tire all the family. Make your plans before­ hand, and know just what to do in each room before yon start out on that room’s cleaning. Here are some suggestions of a gener­ al sort for the spring cleaning. Kerosene is admirable for cleaning brass of any sort—fenders, brass beds, or anything else brass. Cretonne or chintz can be washed in warm water in which dissolved soap and bran water are mixed. Scraps? g'sxl pure soap, dissolve to a jelly in hot water, and add a handful of this to a tubful of warm water. For the bran water stitch up a quart of bran in a cotton bag and simmer it in two quarts of water until it is brown. The l>ag should be made twice as big as is necessary to hold the dry bran, as it in­ creases in size with dampness. After washing the cretonne, rinse it in water to which a tablespoonfu) of Members of humane societies through­ out the United States are preparing for the observance this year of “Kindinzs to Animals Week,” May 1* to SO and ‘‘Humane Sunday” May 21. Tbe Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals made an appeal to clergymen of all lienominations in the state to preach sermons on the subject of kindness to animals on Sunday, May 21, and announced its willingness to fur­ nish material for tbe preparation of ser­ mons to any clergyman upon receipt of a poet card. The movement to observe one week in each year as “Animal Week” is fostered by the American Humane Asso­ ciation at Albany, N. Y., and the Asso­ ciation is making unusual efforts to have the celebration universal thia year. Large quantities of literature are being distributed and the Association has volunteered to co-operate with any in­ dividual in any locality who will help the movement by undertaking special activity; such as a work horse parade, an exhibition of well-kept animals; a public address; or special school exer­ cises. Children particularly are invited to participate in essay competitions and the Association will issue an honorary certificate to any child whose essay is read in a school or printed in a news­ paper. The only provisions are that the essay shall deal with tbe kind treat- ment of animals. Farm Developers Statistics show that the ton-mile coat of wagon transportation from the ranch and forth to the railroad station is 34 times more than the average ton-mile cost by railroad. Western United States is a great resoureeful empire capable of tremendous possibilities and what it needs most of all is the con­ struction of railroads so as to open up and develop the country. Every mile of expensive wagon haul eliminated by railway construction lessons the cost of marketing and increases the value of real estate. Taxpayers arc again planning to cut levies, consolidate boards and commis­ sions and secure uniform system of road tax. The fight will be hard for the number of office holders, employes, and beneficiaries now holding positions on different boards and commissions is so large that their vote alone can in most cases decide any move tending to re­ duce their number. This is one of the greatest dangers arising from the ever increasing office hold class.
