' " "s ? & I i ' ' v - ' 'it' f - I ' , - ' Indians Had No Headaches! There are just three main causes for headaches: Indigestion I Firewater! and Eyestrain! The original American Indians ate no midnight lobster. Drank no tanglefoot. Read nothing, wrote nothing. Columbus found them physical supermen. Headache follows the Flag! You've rarely heard of a near-sighted Indian. It' indoor study and teorlt that demoralizes vision. Near objects are three times as hard on the eyes as distant objects because they require quicker, more constant adjustment of focus. Ten lines of fine print mean more labor for the eyes than 40 miles of mountain trail. The Columbian Optical Company studies headaches. They're our problem. It is our business to know how the eyes cause them. Selling glasses is one thing; fitting glasses is decidedly another. This store has relieved over 3000 chronic cases of headache because we understood them. We have the instruments and the facilities for finding out; these instruments and facilities are why we have grown from one store to seven. If you have headaches, they are most apt to come from your eyes. And if they do come from your eyes, we will know it Our instruments will show us exactly the conditions. And the rest is easy. It's a simple matter to correct vision when the defects are clearly understood as simple as adjusting a camera or a surveying instrument. A matter of mathematics. If you have eyestrain headaches, don't just go on enduring them. Come in and have them stopped. We can do it. We absolutely can. We've done it in 3000 other cases and we can( do it in yours.

Prevention of Lomei ol Eggm. REGON AGRICULTURAL COL LEGE, Corvallis, June 5. Statis tics show that the farmers of the United States lose many millions of dollars annually from bad methods of producing and handling eggs. This loss results largely from preventable causes. A few years ago this loss amounted to $50,000,000, or 17 per cent of the value of the egg crop. If the per cent of loss is the same now it means that we are losing in the neighbor hood of $65,000,000 on our eggs every year that can be . saved in a large measure. The egg harvest is scattered pretty well throughout the entire year. A good share of it comes during; the Spring and Summer months, when farmers are busy with other farm crops work. However. It Is doubly im portant that special attention be given to the care- of eggs during the warm season, as eggs are perishable and heat is the worst enemy of the egg. During the Winter and early Spring the egg buyers quite readily accept eggs case count, but as the busy warm season comes on they ricr up their candling devices and proceed to regard every egg with suspicion until it has passed an examination and is given a clean bill of health by the candle. Producers who are careful to pre sent for sale only good quality eggs should insist on receiving more per dozen than Is paid for average case count quality. That Is, he should sell on a quality Instead of a quantity basis. Perhaps Oregon Is fortunate in not having so much hot weather as some other parts of the country. It is quite likely, therefore, that Oregon does not experience so much loss from heated eggs due to weather. However, the brqpdy hen Is Just as good a producer of rots here as in other states and ade quate means should be taken to prevent her from heating eggs that are to go to market. It requires very few hours at hatching temperature to ruin the egg. Confine the broody hens away from nesting places In a slat crate in a cool place and feed them well. .The production of Infertile eggs will help considerably during the warm and broody season. In some of the hotter states a vigorous "swat-the-rooster" campaign is carried on every year dur ing the Summer. Hens will lay as well without the roosters and the males should be excluded from the laying flock after the breeding season. Prac tically all the eggs will be infertile about 14 days after males are removed. There Is no danger of- heat from any source making blood rings in Infertile eggs. A few hours of heat around 90 to 100 degrees will produce blood rings In fertile eggs, which, of course, spoil quickly thereafter. The fertile egg is as good as the Infertile egg if it is kept away from heat. . . Much of the great loss mentioned In the foregoing Is due to dirty eggs, breakage, stale and shrunken and mouldy and bad-flavored eggs. To pre vent losses from these sources provide plenty of litter In the raying house.
