With iu the next week the board of direct ors will be chosen and officers elected, Pains are being taken In the selection of directors . to get representative growers from the entire county in whom all can have confidence Inas much as the board of directors will be lu a position to control the destinleB of the association. In another day or two contracts will be presented to the growers for their signatures. Nothing more can be accomplished until 75 per cent of the bearing acreage In the valley Is signed up.

Cummins of Portland, rep resenting the Oregon Social Hygiene Society, was here the last of the week making arrangements for a series of local meetings. Prominent citizen of the state are at the head of UiIb society and it has been carrying on a most useful work In Portland. They are now planning to extend the work of education throughout the large cities of the state. The purposes of the meetings will be to educate and advise parents as to their duties and responsibilities along this line. program committee has. been appoint ed as follows: Mayor E. O. Olanchar, E.

A render of thin department who bns recently returned from a two weeks' trip aloug the east const of Florida re orts that the owner of a two and a half ucre tract at Melbourne received $3.1 HJ for the celery marketed from this patch a short time ago. This Is Intensive culture with a vengeance and Is en Imi In ted to put n diimKr on the contention of n good many farmer that a fellow needs a quarter section of land on which to make a living. It Isn't a dllllrult Job to teach the calf to drink U't the little chap get good and hungry and then give it a couple of finders and gradually lower the head Into the pall, keeping the On gers apart, so as to let the in ilk flow lietween. When the youngster has got the taste of the milk and Is a bit used to the new deal withdraw the fingers occasionally. It won't be long before the calf will Unci It can get along with out the ussistnnce of the fingers and will drink on Its own book. It's a fortunate thing perhaps 'that even the most favored sections of the country have their drawbacks, eUe there would likely le a congestion of population In a few districts. With one It Is run In rln. another fleas, another scorching summer winds and drought and others winter rains, another luck of transportation facilities, and so on It Is only oily mouthed real estate agents that will look you In the eye and claim that their particular section has nothing In the way of drawbacks, The spring shooting of wild fowl Is prohibited by law In some states and ought to be In all. At this time the migratory birds are on their long (lights, are usually lliln and poor as a result of scant fare ami are mighty poor eat ing compared with their plump und ten der condition In the fall. If spring shoot ing were done awny with entirely these fowl would be unmolested In their spring mating and nestlns, with the re sult that their number would lie great ly Increased nnd fall shooting he pro portionately Improved. Pom milk and buttermilk, clover and alfalfa liny, bran nnd oil meal are among the Itest as well as chenpest forms of protein (bone, blood and mus cle former) to use In making up the feeding ration of the brood sow. Home corn may be fed. but it should tie bal anced by feeds containing protein largely. Mnny a sow has pigs that are born dead or are sickly and die shortly thereafter simply because pror care Is not tnken In feeding a radon that will furnish these needed bone and muscle forming elements The agricultural department says that the wages of farm laborers have Increased 7 per cent In the last two years. Hut It Is feared that the mov ing pictures shows have absorbed the difference. SINGING CRICXETS. They Are Kept In Cages Like Canary Bird In Japan. Celling crickets is a lucrative busi ness in J ii pa n. where the Insects are vulued for their sonars and kept In cages like canary birds. In Tokyo there are two wholesale merchants who send their ugeuts into the streets of the large cities.. The Insects are carried In Utile bamboo cages. A good seller clears approximately from 80 cents to a dollar a day. An Insert valued for Its music brings from 2 to 7 cents. The Kusa hi Iiu rl Is the most valuable of all the songsters, but the common cricket and the grasshopper are considered ex cellent singers. The singers are collected from the fields lu September, before Inylng time. They are tnken from the grass and shut up lu glass jars. Soon after they are Imprisoned the females lay their eggs and die almost Immediately after ward. The Jars containing them are kept In a temperature of 80 degrees O. The young come forth tn March. The loss of eggs Is about 10 per cent The male Is the singer. lie only Is an object of commerce, and from a hun dred eggs the cultivator, despite all his care, has only fifty salable Insects. The lot of the locust Is a martyrdom from birth to deuth. The locust is the toy of the Japanese child. He Is caught on bamboo twigs rubbed with a gluey sub stance and tormented according to the ignorance or the cruelty of bis keeper. The life of the singing insect never ex ceeds a term of five weeks. Harper's Weekly. FISH AND THEIR FOOD. Quaar Ways by Which Soma of the Toothless Spaciss Gat a Maal. The curious ways iu wbk-b fishes eat form quite a study. Some fishes have teeth and some have none at all. In some the teeth are found upon the tongue. In some in the throat and in some In the stomach. Some draw in their food by sucton; the sturgeon is one of this class. The jellyfish ab sorbs its food by wrapping its body around the prey it covets. The star flsb fastens itself to its victim, turns Its stomach wrong side out and en gulfs Its dinner without the formal ity of swallowing It through a mouth first So there are all sorts of methods for those regularly toothless, and the fishes which have teeth show almost as great a diversity In the number, style and arrangement of tbem. The ray or skate "has a mouth set trans versely across its head, the Jaws work ing with a rolling motion like two hands set back to back. In the jaws are three rows of flat teeth, set like a mosaic pavement, and between these rolling Jaws the flsb crushes oysters and other molliisks like so many nuts. The carp's teeth are set back In the pharynx, so that it actually mast! cates Its food In Its throat, while the sea urchin has five teeth surrounding Its stomach and working with a pe culiar centralized motion, which makes them do as good service as If they numbered hundreds Harper's Young People. An Anodyne. "An anodyne," patiently explained a well known physician to a woman pa tlent, "Is a delusion. And medicine that soothes pain has this drawback- It relieves the attack, but the next at tack comes on much sooner. Under Hli.nd. I'll cure your headache, but you're bound to have another headache In n day or two." The woman pondered a bit "I know Just what you mean, doc tor." she said. "I've noticed It about Henry, my husband, you know. A doc tor prescribed whisky for bis cough My liusliand says It cured bis cough quicker (hiiu anything else ever did. but I notice that he gets a new cough almost every week now." Louisville Times. PRANKS OF A POET. Da Muasat Had a Mania For Destroy ing Wumin'i Clothea. "1 was once at the Comedle Fran- raise, hut as a sectator, not as an ac tress. I had on a white hat, which I bad teen told suited me quite well. From he box In which I sat I noticed Alfred de Musset, and be caught sight of me, too, so he came to see me between the acts. He planted himself in front of me and said rudely: 'You've got a hideous hat on. mademoiselle. I can't imagine how pretty women can dress badly,' It's sheer stupidity for any one who has a white skin like yours to go and spoil the effect of her complexion by wearing a white bat' As be spoke be gave me a bang on the head which quite crushed my hat, turned on his heel and took himself off. When I told my friend, Roger de Benuvolr. who knew De Musset well, of the Incident he said: 'He Is rather addicted to such pleasantries. The oth er day be was at Tortonls with La Mo gador, who was wearing a light green dress, when suddenly, without the slightest warning, be seized a bottle of raspberry sirup nnd poured Its con tents over his companion'! clothes. completely ruining her toilet He seems to be a 111 let ed with a mania for spoiling women's clothes."

"What is the mater with the ap ples," he asks. "I have seen in Jack son county apples displayed at 35 cents a box and yet no hotels or rest aurants will serve the green apple on the table. The guests at Hood River hotels and restaurants find no apples on the table. 'Apples are a nice table ornament and tender. There are thousands of people who enjoy eating them at meal time. Why not place them on the table? In Hood River county the ex cessive high price will not permit of serving apples except in pie, but else where there appears to be no real reason for Omitting this fruit. "On the trains it is impossible to buy a very small apple for a nickel, in a county that produces such excel' lent fruit as does Jackson, the hotels and restaurants should encourage cit izens as well as the traveling public to eat apples.
