MANY IGNORE ATTEMPTS House wives, Following Advice of Government Food Administrator, I . Go HI slt on Buying- Pink V. Variety at Big Saving. Tietail fish dealers of Portland yes terday continued advising against the purchase of pink salmon for immediate use or canning purposes, although it Has displayed for sale beside the bright red fish of the Coast on their counters. The pinkr sells for 15 cents and the ruddier fish for 20 cents per pound. . "Of course." said one dealer, with im plied apology, "some people buy the pink fish, but it isn't to be compared with the real red Chinook." Wholesalers and food experts maintain that the pink salmon is fully as rich in nutritive value, and Federal- Food Administrator Ayer has widely advised that it be purchased and canned for "Winter uye. The lower price makes this practicable and effects a marked saving over the bright red salmon without loss of food value. In Portland markets yesterday many dealers displayed -the two varieties ide by side, labeling the paler "Co lumbia River salmon. 15 cents," and the bright red. "Royal Chinook, 20 cents," with evident intent to discourage' pur chase of the former by comparative ap pearance. Dealer Advice Ignored ly Many. "Numerous customers, advised by the Information offered by Federal Food Administrator Ayer through the col umns of The Oregonian, asked dealers to explain the difference. In a vast majority of instances they were urged to buy the red fish at the higher price and informed that the pink was poor and ill-conditioned. Despite this disposition on the part of dealers, the Portland public bought largely of the pink salmon yesterday and carried it home to can. The. pink fish is no less the true Royal Chinook than is its redder-tinted brother, but is merely the flesh of salmon which entered the fresh water at a slightly earlier date. -r Whole and half fish of the pink va riety sold for 12 cents per pound yes terday. Dealers purchased such fish from the wholesalers, cleaned and ready for market, at 8 cents per pound. The profit remaining is considered ample recompense for the handling, ana should preclude any attempt to pro voke discrimination on the part of the Xublic. Woman Reports Good Result. Interestingly in point is the canning experience of Mrs. F. D. Benedict, of 353 iall street, who purchased 17 pounds of the pink fish yesterday morning and took it home to can. The fish filled 22 pint jars and was of fine quality, ac cording to Mrs. Benedict's report to the Fpderal food administration office. In addition the quantity which remained furnished fresh fish for two meals for a small family. Canned salmon, of considerably less than pint-size, now sells for 15 cents per can. A brief computation will con vince other housewives that Mrs. Bene dict spent a profitable forenoon. Petitions are in circulation here ask ing the County Court to appoint A. L. Kjtchin, present manager of the Ump qua Valley Fruit Union, county fruit inspector.

Crenshaw asks a verdict in the sum of $462.50. WESLEY-FROST TO SPEAK Ex-Consul at ' Queenstonn Will Ad dress Civic League.

DAHOAGAIN NORMAL Governor Alexander Says State Is Prosperous. TROOPS ARE NOT NEEDED People Are Patriotic and I. W. W. v Troubles Are Over, Says Ex ecutive, Who Returns From Visit to San Francisco.

Our militia will soon be on the way to France to fight the Germans, where they should be." Eight-Hour Day Championed. "Our lumbermen may well take an object lesson from the Oregon mill men' who have generally, I understand, granted an eight-hour day at fair wages. This is right and as it ought to be. "We have had no trouble in Idaho with fires caused by the I. W. W.. so far as I know. Many things are laid at the door of the I. W. W. of which they are not guilty. I think there -is no need to charge them with more than they are responsible for. "Our crops generally are good. Ir rigated sections during the long dry spell naturally did better than the dry sections, bat fruit crops are good and sugar beets will produce a large yield. The hay harvest is excellent and is selling for fabulous prices. "Our mines are turning out large quantities of metal which brings big prices and all these things tend to the general contentment and welfare of our people. In fact, 1 have never in my life seen a time when the whole Nation was so united as at present." Troops Not Needed Now.

Plays and playlets, sketches and motion pictures dealing with the ever compelling and pertinent subject of politics as entwined in modern social evils are invariably of Interest when presented in an entertaining manner. "To Save One Girl" is one of the newest developments of the moral cru sade as applied in vaudeville and its place as headline act at the Hippo drome on the new bill attests its merit. Besides the undoubted interest of its subject matter the playlet is beauti fully acted by a company of five ar- tisti. Flashes of keen satire and real com edy enliven the seriousness of the pres entation and the act finds fine favor. A trio of funsters puts on a whole minstrel show and does it as well as a lot of big aggregations. They are the Tennessee Trio, a pair appearing in blackface and the third working straight. Their comedy is new and keen and their musical offerings of a pleasing variety. Another worth-while number is that of a whirlwind accordeonist, D'Amico. who chooses his selections wisely and pleases much. An aerial sensation is furnished by the whirling Azimas. who dare death or accidents galore in their novel up-in-the-air maneuvers. A couple of finished steppers and singers are Leonard and Miller, who dress smartly in evening togs and splash around ia a new clever turn that takes. A juggMngr act that offers brand new features and sustains close inter est is offered by the Beaudions.

Roles of Portland Library Enforced at Meeting- of Apple-Growers and lloxma Iters. SHALL the rules of the Portland Li brary Association be amended to permit of smoking in rooms used for assemblies? It is not probable that the question will ever come before the board of directors in serious manner, but it is a good wager that many a smoker has wished there might at least be some flexibility. Yesterday morning, when the apple growers and box makers, were in con ference. W. B. Ayer. the presiding offi cer, spied a little stream of blue smoke CASTOR SA For Infants and Children.

He im mediately rapped for order. "Excuse me," he said, "but I am com pelled to announce that there can be no smoking here. As chairman of the board of directors of the Library As sociation, I have often held that this is a poor place for smokers to meet. How ever, the rules will not permit it. What I am saying, gentlemen, hurts me more than you know I am dying for a smoke myself." A good laugh was had and all went well especially for Mr. Ayer. At first opportunity, he called for a report on conditions in and about Spokane and, while it was being read, slipped out. He was accused of "taking a little smoke." The city has arranged "to buy direct from the mines at Nan-imn. t7 degrees. FUlwIcss, Uniform, Uribarv- tng. ferfect. Building Owners Elect Officers. OMAHA. Sept. 13.
