The Food Ad ministration has found that there Is neither economy nor conservation In making this substitution and has not recommended it.

NO ONE OF FOUR INJURED Big Machine Housed Inside Im promptu Garage, Where Propri etor and Customer Xarrowly Eecape Being; Run Over. A big; touring car driven by Frank Petrino. proprietor of a cigar store at 215 First street, gave an imitation of a British tank in action yesterday after noon when it wrecked the salesroom of Ben Woldfs cigar factory on the north east corner of Third and Jefferson streets. Petrino was proceeding north on Third street at a fair rate of speed. th one passeneer. Nazario Vacino. riding- beside him. when an east-bound motorcycle driven by H. D. Hamilton. of 142 East Thirty-ninth street-North, hove into view at the intersection of Jefferson street. Petrino says the motorcycle cot in his way. Hamilton says that he did not, and that Petrino simply became confused. At any rate, Petrino's auto swerved sharply to the right, jumped 10-incli curb as if it were a mere bump in the road, narrowly missed a telephone pole on the corner, and crashed into the store, which was open, striking the far wall with such force that the Jolt stopped the clock hang ing on the' wall -above the point of impact. The auto was as completely housed in the store as though this were a fc-arage. The store was wrecked. Three large show cases were smashed, the counter was reduced to kindling, and cigars, cigarettes, pipes and miscel- aneous tobacco were strewn about. Vacina, who had been riding beside the driver, was catapulted over the counter, and found himself seated in a corner " between .the front wheels of the auto, with the store's cash reg ister riding upon his shoulders. No one was injured to the extent of even a scratch from the flying glass. The only occupants of the store prior to the entry of the automobile were the proprietor, Ben Woldt, and Tom Maynard, a bridge carpenter for the Southern Pacific Company, who was buying a smoke. The auto went between these two men, missing each of them by inches. Mr. Woldt estimated the damage done at ?3o0. Petrino, the motorist, and Hamilton, of the motorcycle, both reported the accident at police head quarters. Neither was detained. UNERAL HOUR ANNOUNCED Services for I.ate W. W.

IT is best in handling soils of a heav ier nature such as those containing a predominance of clay and silt and not much sand or organic matter to al low the soil to lie a few days after plowing before It I worked down with the disk and th harrow. The under surface of the soli which is plowed up Is considerably more mnist than the top surface and It Is usually too moist to be worked down immediately after plowing. Soil that are composed largely of sand or sandy loam are work able almo.it as soon aa the plowing has bern done. There is a tendency among those who are doing th plowing to want to finish the job and work the soil right down. However, it is not possible with the soils of which I am speaking to finish the work and have the soil in a fine, free condition If disked immediately. There may be some exceptions to this fact, possibly where the soil hss been left until it Is in a drier condition than mo-t soils In the spring. There Is a dvclded need of good or Sanizalion In the obtaining of plow men to prepare lots or home gardens so that the cost ol the work ne reduced to the minimum amount. I understand that such district organization la being for warded in Portland and It should he made general wherever there are per sons living in certain districts who will be growing vegetables. We want to guard against the condition of which instance was - given me yesterday when 1 was told of a certain piece of ground which was plowed in "0 to 40 minutes and the cost was i. This was he only job of plowing the teamster knew about In the neighborhood and he was compelled to charge for time spent coming and going. A day or so after wards a neighbor, mentioned the fact hat he had some plowing and would have had the plowman come over if he had known that he would be in that neighborhood. It Is probable that the cos of plowing the first mentioned plot would have been $1 instead of $. if here had been proper organization ef fected. Labor conditions such as are xistlng this year make it Imperative I hat there be as much effective work done aa possible so that soils be plowed at the right time and everyone be able to plant as soon as conditions permit.
