Milam, of tlie (lonieatic science c!emrtiui-nt of the Oregon Agricultural College, howuver, mnUes the statement thnt enke in a concentrated food, the nvcrnge slice containing practically ns much food vnluc a one and one half glasses of milk. Livestock men of the whole coun try have been in ticwtion hi Portland during tlie jxist week nnd while there learned many things ahout Oregon's growing livestock indus try. Delegates to the National Livestock .Iixchange represented 14 leading stockyard centers ofAthe United Mutes. They handle an immense number of cattle each year and they went hack to their homes witli a better idea limn ever they had hefore of Oiegou's importance as a livestock state. State Kugineer Lewis character bus the Pes Chutes river as the most wonderful stream in the world after a trip through its entire drain age basin. lie says the powiil i'ities for irrigation are tremendous nut the future development of water power no less so. He estimates nearly 000,000 horsepower can be generated in this stream liy to dam sites already located. An immense increase can be made by liurnessinj tributary Htrcims. 4 A communicant on the dog (pies tion elsewhere in this issue shotiit temcmber that mad dogs in the Northwest do not happen. At least we never heard of a case, 1 Here does seem to lie an over abundance ol "dorgs" in St. Johns, but if the owners are willing to ikiv the license for their company, it is about all that can be expected. The dog and the crowing cock seem to be necessary evils of any well balanced community. Muzzles may be all right, but it is cruel, unlet the dog is dangerous. Then it is up to the police. A movement has begun to tir in regard to constructing nidetrneks to to connect with the city dock. 1 he mattur has lain dormant entirely too long without some effoit direct ed toward relieving the situation. According to the city charter, it is iiupossihle to sell the dock, (altho at one time it whs believed this could be done), but it is iKMiihte to lease it for a term of 25 years, if so desired. Hut without a sidetrack no one wants it. It is like a house without means of ingress or egress. Something to be woudeied at, but not utilized. The city engineer has evolved u plan whereby sidetracks could bo constructed at a minimum of cost. With the aepiirumeut of a block on each side of Philadelphia street, the tracks could be laid sat isfactorily without going fuither. It is the desire of many ptop erty owners that Philadelphia stteet be improved clear to the dock, but they would be glad to learn that the dock would be fitted up with proper sidetracks ut the same time It is believed by some oi our citi zens that if the Ilarrimau manage tneut was approached by a commit tee from the cily council that it wouiu agree to provide ami lay me rails it tlie city would sccitte right of way ami drive the piling it would lie worth trying at least The longer we delay in this dock matter the more it is costing our ciluuiui. Why an attempt should not be made to shift the burden to other shoulders is difficult to under stand. It is up to the council to gut iiioy, uim 111 UK wiMiom, utKC some steps toward sidetracking the dock 1 he engineer has the plan, the cople are ready to do their part, and it is only a ijuettiou of pushing matters now. Let a com mittec be appointed to confer with the mihoad company, and have it in black and whjte what they will do. Then get au estimate of the cost, and call a special election tor the issuance ot sutlicient bonds. It is a case of where more expense will lessen the burden. Ami it is getting quite heavy. r Stories of Success r-rr It. GORDON SEURIDGE In n.hkosh. Wisconsin, was trMMl a Ihijt olullnhtt Hit rhKHiiii lux in thr lmSt ICna- Il.h . pk I It Mly in th w 1,1.

While notvo women inny ttgrce on nuy other stib)ccttyct of the thousands that arc using gas nuiges,all are agreed that they are the most convenient and durable economical and perfect cooking and baking appliances they ever saw or used.
