Corvallis Timesr CORVALLIS, OREGON, FRIDAY EVENING, MAR. 29, 1907 The Armory Referendum. It is proposed to referendum the $vx:&qq appropriation by the late legislature lor militia , armories., , It . would not be a misdirected- efforjt. The days of wars are passing The best thought on earth ' is bent to ward peace and . . national . disarma ment. 1 That problem is to ( be- the theme at the coming Hague confer ence, which will be the most notable gathering of statesmen that ever ! ' took place in tbe world,w Forty na- ' tions will be reoresented.. . flaw to avert war,' how to promote peace . onVl lii-iOT to save the millions .-, of treasure annually, spent iff the world v for cannon, fordncations ana war craft will bediacussed. ,.. Tt will be a scene and. an occasion worthy, of the admiration and the benedictions of alt men. , Slaughter,, such ias war, means, is a lower occupation than dumb creation would stoop to. The bursting shell that mows down Tegiments might have been , aprop 03 in: the . Dark Ages ' when men . were barbarians. Butchery of hu man beines might have been ex cusable among ,the halt -civilized but it is a blot and a blight in the 20th century. . Armories ,and the other trappings of war should give :wav to home, building and . home blessine instead of home destruc tion and the swords be beaten into ploughshares and spears into prun ing hooks. , i : .

They are men too, rWhashow signs that, they know, whereof they speak. The particular i point in their contention, is, that it is lolly and, the: worst of folly for'one man to be required ,to do the who! Tob of assessing o the, county,,, ieven small as is Benton since a part . ,of its territory was hacked , off., f i Be fore he. gets the job ;4ane, many a large piece of property has Chang i ed hands.' ;:He icannot do , the ., as- i sessine in time; for the roll to be made up in a methodical, way. by the date they i are, - required, , under tbe law it. must sbe (delivered. L He cannot,! to save, his , life,- these f ex perls sajr,J personally ; see. ?all; i the taxpayers ia the,. countyi between March ist and the time he.,has to. turn his roll over; to i.tbe county board of equalization. ,1 Sometimes he goes as many as three, times to a man's homa and then, fails to, Snd ' him. 3 . With one man idoingj ; the stunt such: an a sessment . as,; the county ought to have is impossble, no matter how capable the assessor. That several persons should 'take the field on the first j of March, end do the work iquickly.iso that, proper ' time may be put on the roll, , these persons claim, would result in mon ey -saved to the county, uj a , m -1 ' Most counties ifollow that. plan. Polk for instance, ipeys. an - assessor $i,2oo and the county cottrt gives him five field' deputies i at , . $2 per "dayvo Columbia, ;' as cduntyi about :- the siie of: Benton; j follows a similar ' plan; .'tin I;inn,(i there. j are - seven fiefd deputies .; and; ' in Lane mine, and they are all rushing the assess - ment with great' vigor, t . In Benton county the assessor does , all the work alone, save in the making of ' the roll, when '. compensation is al ' lowed for an assistant. - - ' Knight Templar Easter Services. ' tt'.'

Interesbng Results with Formaldehyde . by Stadents at the College. ' ' v. ': ';".. 1 . ' The question of whether "or not fumigation -7 fumigates -has - been worked out with uiterestipg results by students ia the -' bacteriological department at the college. The, ex-; petimens began early in January and have been .conducted with great care byCalyin Ingle, and Arthut Berman under the . supervision of Prof.iPernot. For the fumigation formaldehyde was used," and the findings are that if .the gas is' "tho roughly applied, germs that are dangerous to man will 4 be killed, but if not thorough, the ! microbes will survive and be ready j to comr municate disease and death to, hu man beings.; It was also determin ed by the experiments that several of theJiarmless. germs will survive the . application , of formaldehyde ana live to pertorm vigorously in the world after the attack on them has been administered. " ' ' ' In the1 experiments, 'there were two processes of the fumigation. The room used was one in which a patient had died 1 of consumption. The first was fairlv thorough, the formaldehyde ' being' "introduced thrdugh the key hole in the door. Cultures of tuberculosis : and other germs were placed, in the room and allowed to remain there during the fumigation process. "The question at issue was whether or not as a re suit of the , fumigation the live germs in the cultures would be kill ed. ' In one ' culture were germs known to. laymen 1 as pus germs. Tney survived the experiment. Af- ,ter the fumigation, - bits of ' cloth were tut from draperies in the room that had been occupied by the pa tient. . One piece was from the car pet and another from ' the table cover. These were placed in cul ture media,, and , within 24 hours growths of germs began to appear, showing that the microbes ' in tbe carpet and drapery had lived tlwough the formaldehyde experience. They were however classified and found to be harmless.!, i -j -( , -. Afterward, a second 'application of thevJormaldehyde was made. Ev ery -precaution, was take.p sp. as ;to make its application: , perfect.-The result ,showedrt that ;fin -every case the - pathogenic-. germs -were killed thougb,,several of the barm-less- microbes survived s as I in . the first instance;' . The report made by the students.Jconcludes as . follows: :vf 'From, these and other tests tnjide we nnd that the maximum efficien cy of formaldehyde gas as a ..germ destroyer can only . be attained by confinement of the - fumes -in f. the room being disinfected;., . The pre caution tq close all : apertures, by which the gas might escape is very important. . The . growths- which occurred from ; those spore-bearing non-pathogenic varieties vin no way detracts from the .efficiency of for maldehyde gas as an effective dis infectant when properly used,".. rnw wuay, i nave eataDiisnea a junk business on.
