Garden Tract Needs Shift
It is well to pick out a new spot for
the home vegetable garden at this
time of year since one of the best
ways to prevent the increase of vege
table diseases from year to year is to
iotate the soil in order that parasites
that get established with one crop may
have a chance to die out before the
crop is again grown on the game land.
This often takes several years. Po
tato ground especially should be ro
tated on -account of wilt and rhizoc
tonia. O. A. C. Experiment Station.
Roof Hen House Now
Now is the time to fix the roof of the
poultry house if it has not already
been done. -
Drafts Cause Diseases
Watch the ventilators and sky lights
in the poultry house and keep them
closed to avoid drafts whirh result in
roup, leg weakness and colds. If the
birds are affected With colds, tincture
of iodine injected into the nostrils by
means of a machine oil can, after
squeezing out the mucous, will pre
vent the cold from developing into
canker or roup.
- Feed Mash For Layers
oee mat tne pullets consume as
much as possible as this is what will
make then lay. The tendency is to
eat too much scratch food, which
causes them to stop laying. They
should have all the green feed they
will take,- plenty of fresh buttermilk,
and as much mash as scratch grain.
More Lime Used
.More lime is being ordered by farm
ers from the state lime plant at Gold
Hill. It is applied in moderate amounts
after plowing, and harrowed in. A
manure spreader with a little loose
strawy manure in the bottom is some
times used for applying the lime, or
a lime spreader may be obtained when
lime is used reguladly. Directions for
making a lime spreader may be had in
college circular. Best results may be
expected on soils of known acidity,
medium fertility and heavy texture, on
which legumes such as 'clover are to
be grown.
Hens Peck Pen Mates
Birds just off the range and placed
in confined quarters, as they are dur
ing the winter, should be carefully
watched, for they are likely to de
velop the habit of picking each other's
feathers. The new feathers have blood
at the base which gives them the taste
of blood and causes this habit to de
velop. The best remedy is to keep
the birds busy and hungry working for
feed, which will keep away this de
praved appetite. Raw bones with a
little meat left on them, placed where
the pullets can get to them, will help.
Care should be exercised to keep, the
bones from getting stale by providing
fresh ones from day to day.
Sodium Fluoride Kills Lice
Dust the pullets with sodium flu
oride if troubled with lice. This is
best done at night as less disturb
ance is caused among the birds.-

POISON SPRAY NOT HARMFUL
Heavy Coatings of Residue on Fruit
and Vegetables Removed by
Gocd Washing.
Poison sprays on' fruits and "vege
tables will not be found by consumers
in harmful quantities if growers who
use them against pests and diseases
follow the spraying schedule recom
mended by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture. In some in
stances, because of heavy spraying .or
spraying late in the season, investi
gators for the department have found
comparatively large quantities of
spray residue on fruits and vegetables
at harvest time, especially on prod
ucts grown in dry. climates. When
heavy coatings of residue were found
washing and wiping removed much of
it, and peeling all of it.
- Experiments along this line were
undertaken by the department be
cause of the possibility that spraying
of fruits and vegetables might leave
enough arsenic, lead, or copper-on the
surface to be injurious to the con
sumer. The results, obtained by an
alyzing sprayed fruits and vegetables
from various parts of the country and
presented mostly In the form of ta
bles, are given in Department Bulle
tin 1027, Poisonous Metals on Sprayed
Fruits and Vegetables. Copies may
be obtained by addressing the depart
ment at Washington, D. C.

Preserved Pumpkin-
Stew the pumpkin, dry, that is boil
it down until the bulk is greatly re
duced, stirring frequently to avoid
burning.
When well boiled down remove
from the fire and to every three
fourths cup of pumpkin add three-
fourths cup granulated sugar, one-half
teaspoon .of ginger, a pinch of salt and
one-eighth teaspoon each of cinnamon,
cloves and nutmeg. Blend thoroughly,
heat to the boiling point, being careful
not to burn. Seal in air-tight jar, eith
er pints or quarts, and this will keep
indefinitely. -
For pie . dissolve one cup of the
pumpkin in one and one-half cups of
scalded milk, : add two well beaten
eggs, bake in a good rich crust and
you have the famous-New England
pumpkin pie. I never peel the pump
kin as that takes away much of the
richness.'
-
Dill Pickles
Wash cucumbers and let stand in
cold water a few hours; to each half
gallon jar take six stalks of dill, three
tablespoons of salt, one-half cup of
good vinegar. Fill the jar with cu
cumbers, taking care not to bruise
them, then fill the jar with cold" water
and seal. .
Meat Loaf
One-half pound each of veal, pork
and beef, ground fine, one cup of bread.
crumbs, one egg, one chopped onion,
salt, pepper, sage to taste. Mix all
together and if too thick add a little
milk and if too thin add a little flour
orore bread crumbs. Mold into a
loaf and bake in a medium hot oven
one hour.
Clackamas county potato growers
are keenly interested in an effort be
ing made to make that county a center
for seed potatoes and the growing of
two or three standard varieties that
best meet the demands of tne market,
During the month of July a series
of field tours, and potato meetings
were arranged in various communities
of the county by County Agent Holt
n the Damascus community thirty
growers turned out to make a tour of
inspection of nine different fields
where potato demonstration work had
been carried on. These demonstra
tions showed very clearly the value of
planting full seed-end . pieces as a
means of lessening disease, likewise
the value . of treating seed potatoes
with corrosive sublimate as a prevent
ative for rhizoctonia was apparent.
Interest in potato certification work
has increased considerably in Clacka
mas county this, year, and out of forty
growers who entered their fields for
certification twenty-five had all or a
part of their acreage passed as satis
factory for the first field inspection.
STRIKES REPRESENT
TREMENDOUS LOSS
VIOLA
Mrs. M. li. Sevier J
jt
Wm: C. Higginbotham, son of Geo.
Higginbotham of Viola, was severely
injured recently, when a scaffold gave
way at a sawmill which was being
constructed at Stevenson, Wash. Mr.
Higginbotham fell some distance and
struck on his head, -badly bruising his
lace and breaking his leg at the knee.
He was taken to the Good Samaritan
hospital at Portland. It is not known
how long he will be incapacitated as
the knee was badly twisted and splintered.
EXECUTOR'S NOTICE
Statistics issued by the Department
of .Labor show that strikes in this
country average more than 3,300 per
year. It is not contended by the de
partment that its figures are accurate,
since they depend upon newspaper and
trade paper reports for the most part,
but that they are under, rather than
overstatements.
It is impossible truthfully to esti
mate the average cost of a strike,
since they vary so in duration, num
ber of workmen affected and economic
loss through whatever industry is
wholly or partially shut down. But if
the most conservative possible esti
mate be adopted, and it is considered
that the average strike affects 100
workmen, and that the average strike
lasts 10 days,, the total arrived at is
3,300,000 working days lost per year.
If the average cost to each workman
is $5 per day and the average loss to
each industry does not exceed three
times the loss to the workmen, then
strikes cost this country some $66,-
000,000 a year.
It is not believed that these figures
are anything but suggestive. The av
erage strike undoubtedly affects thou
sands, rather than hundreds, and for
many more than ten days; few union
laborers receive as little as $5 a day,
and, of course, the industry affected
suffers out of all proportion to the
workmen. ' . . ,
But it is pointed out at the capitol,
if it were true that only $66,000,000
were wasted by strikes, every year, that
166,000,000 spent in proper channels
on arbitration would undoubtedly stop
most if not all the strikes.
It might be an economic measure to
spend a part of it for accurate statis
tics of strike costs to, the country; a
little education on what it really costs
to stop work might make people less
willing to indulge in, or cause, strikes.

PROTESTANT FORCES
FIGHT SCHOOL BILL
Organization FoFmed to State
Opposing Side to Voters
of Oregon.
Opposition on . the part of various
Protestant denominations to the pro
posed compulsory education bill, so-
called, is being carried on through an
organization formed in Portland, with'
headquarters in the Consolidated
Securities building. Its purpose is to
state to the voters of Oregon the ob
jections of those whom it-represents
to .the passage of the measure.
W. L. Brewster, former city com
missioner of Portland, member of
the public library board and lawyer
of prominence, is chairman. Joseph
A. Hill, principal t of Hill -Military
academy, Portland a non-sectarian
school for boys, is executive secretary.
Members representing various Pro
testant interests include Richard W.
Montague, James Stapleton, Frederick
Strong, H. G. Thurston, F. W. J. Syl
vester, W. J. Henderson and Mabel
Holmes Parsons..
A statement just issued through this
office says, briefly:
The proposed bin is fundamentally
un-American, as it undertakes to de
prive certain people of the right to
send their children to schools where
religion is a part of the training.
It would close all private schools
of whatsoever denomination or non-
sectarian institutions, such as the Hill
Military academy. --,
It is unnecessary; upsets the theory
of our government; fosters intolerance,
bigotry and invites religious controversy.
Its provisions would plaee on tax
payers of Oregon more than ?1,000,
000 additional taxes to care for the
several thousand pupils now in the
various private schools of the state;
new buildings would be required and
a large added teaching staff.
Above all, it is unconstitutional, and
harks back to witchcraft days when
burning at the stake was the fate
of many who believed differently than
others and dared to exercise their
rights; it is inconceivable that the
voters of generous Oregon will nut
the brand of religious bigotry and In
tolerance upon this fair statd.
