Newspaper Page Text6 THE SUNDAY OREGOMAN, PORTLAND, 31 AY " 13, 1917. FARMERS; DEFENSE DAY BIG SUCCESS Programme to List Agricul tural Resources of Oregon Arouses Enthusiasm. HOE PARADE IS HELD food Preparedness Meeting Held at Lincoln High SchooflMaces Em phasis on Xecd or Intensive Fanning Daring AVar. Agricultural Oregon took stock of herself yesterday. Every community of the state which produces food for human consumption indulged in the patriotic pleasure of conducting a farmers meeting for the purpose of learning what the state's sgricultural resources consist of, what the prospects are for a crop this year and what are the immediate needs to increase the year's production. Reports from every part of the state indicate that the meetings were uni formly successful, largely attended and full of enthusiasm. R. D. Hetzel, director of the Agricul tural College experiment station at Corvallis, telegraphed last night that the farmers had responded with an earnest will to the call for community meetings. Fanners Send In Reports. In every instance the farmers were requested to fill out blanks, giving complete information on the crop, live stock and farm labor situation, to gether with the probable needs for the remainder of the year. These reports will be compiled by the Agricultural College sttaff. co-operating with the Federal Department of Agriculture, and as rapidly as pos sible the needs of the individual farm ers will be supplied. While Portland, strictly speaking. Is not an agricultural community, the citizens had an active part in the Farmers' Defense programme, as the activities of the day had been desig nated by official proclamation of Gov ernor Wlthycombe. A few amateur and professional gar deners paraded the streets with hoes last night to give visible demonstration of their active participation In the movement to increase the food supply. Followed then a patriptlc rally at Lincoln High School, at which able speakers outlined the part that farm work is going to play in winning the war. Incidentally, scores of schoolboys were obtained t,o sign enlistment blanks for farm work this Summer. Captain Shaw Grand Marshal. Captain .Shaw was grand marshal of the parade and he rode a spirited black horse at the head of the column. The Coast Artillery band played pa triotic and lively marching airs. The parade formed at Tenth and Columbia streets and swung down Yamhill and thence made ite way to the Lincoln High School, where the food preparedness meeting was held. The announced route of march was not followed, so that many people were disappointed in not seeing the parad ers. Mrs. Helen I. Tomlinson was in charge of the parade plans. Miss Anne Shannon Monroe, who had been active In preparing for yester day's demonstration, presided at last night's meeting. She outlined, in a dramatic report, the vital need of in tensive agricultural development dur ing the period of the war. "Women's Part Is Told. Mrs. Clara H. Waldo, regent of the Agricultural College, told of the im portant part that the women of the land are to play in winning the war. She declared that this war will work a beneficial effect upon the coun try as it will awaken the people to the necessity of providing for the welfare of all the people. "The top-heavy condition that permits come of us to be bloated with wealth while children go to school hungry will no longer be permitted to exist," she said. William D. Wheelwright spoke of the professional and business men's view point, and Henry B. Hazard, United States Immigration Inspector, on the part that the foreign-born citizen Is to play. IDEALS ARE HELD STAKE (Continued From First Page-) flees and sufferings that are before them. We thought the scale of our Civil War was unprecedented, but in comparison with the struggle into which we now have entered, the Civil "War seerris almost Insignificant In Its proportions and in its expenditure of treasure and of blood. And, therefore. It Is a matter of the greatest import ance that we should at the outset see to it that the American Red Cross is equipped and prepared for the things that lie before it. It will be our In strument to do the works of allevia tion and of mercy which will attend this struggle. Of course, the scale upon which it shall act will be greater than the scale of any other duty that It has ever attempted to perform. "It is in ' recognition of that fact the American Red Cross has Just added to its organization a small body of men whom it has chosen to call its war council. Their first - duty will be to raise a great fund out of which to draw the resources for the perform ance of their duty and I do not believe that it will be necessary to appeal to the American people to respond to their call for funds, because the heart of this country is in this war, and if the heart of the country is in the war it's heart will express itself in the gifts that will be'poured out for this humane purpose. ' . Grievance Is Sot Held. "I say the Tieart of the country is in this war because it would not have gone into it if its heart had not been prepared for it. It would not have gone Into it if it had not first believed, that here was an opportunity to express the character of the United States. We have gone in with no special grievance of our own, because we nave always said that we were the friends and ser vants of mankind. We look for no rrofit. We look for no advantage. We will accept no advantage out of this war. We go because we believe that the very principles upon which the American republic was founded are now at stake and must be vindicated. In fuch a contest, therefore, we shall not fail, to respond to the call to service that comes through the instrumentality of this particular organization. "And I think it is not inappropriate to say this: There will be many ex pressions of the spirit of sympathy and mercy and philanthropy, and I think that it is very necessary that we should not disperse our activities in those lines too much; that we should keep constantly in view the desire to have the utmost concentration and efficiency of effort, and I hope that most, if not all, of the philanthropic activities of this war may be exercised, if not through the Red, Cross, then through some already constituted aid experi enced organization. v War Not for Amatrani. "This is no war for amateurs. This is no war for mere spontaneous Im pulse. It means grim business on every side of it, and it Is the mere counsel of prudence that in our philan thropy, as well as in our fightir;, we should act through the Instrumentali ties already prepared to our hand and already experienced in the tasks which are going to be assigned to them. "There is another thing that is sig nificant and delightful to my thought that this beatuiful building should be dedicated to the women both of the South and the North. It is a sort of a landmark of the unity to which the people have been- brought, so far as any old question which tore our hearts in days gone by is concerned; and I pray God that the outcome of this struggle may be that every other ele ment of difference amongst us will be NORTH DAKOTA MA IV CALLED TO RESERVE CORPS TRAIN ING CAMP. : i- if.

Unity Is Predicted. "The evidences are already many that this is happening. The divisions which were predicted have not occurred and will not occur. "The spirit of the people Is already united, and when effort and suffering and sacrifice have completed the union, men will no longer speak of any lines, either of race or of association, cutting athwart the great body of this Nation. bo tnat 1 feel that we are now bringing the processes which will some day re quire another beautiful memorial erect ed to those -whose hearts uniting, united America."

Another by Senator Weeks to permit use of grains and cereals in the manufacture of alcohol used in the manufacture of tobacco was beaten 39 to 37. There was much discussion of consti tutionality of the Cummins amendment, and many Senators complained that the Senate was undertaken the most im portant sort of legislation under a lim ited debate rule. Supporters of the proposal emphasized strongly the fact that the Nation and its allies need every bushel of grain they can find to carry on the war. Discussion of the censorship and pro hibition sections prevented a final vote on the bill. It will be taken up again Monday. Douglas Pioneer Passes at 84. ' ROSEBURG, Or., May 12.

Stop and Think Kidney Diseases Killed 100,000 Last Year Health Authorities Alarmed at Increasing Death Rate Each Year From Kidney Diseases In our pursuit of the mighty dollar, we too often are absorbed in the topics of the day. pleasure, etc., to stop and consider our health. Stop now think kidney diseases caused 100.000 deal lis last year. Are you going to be included in this year's toll? Why, you will ex claim, do so many die, why are the health authorities so concerned? The answer is. we bolt down our food, take no exercise, neglect our sleep and oth erwise subject our system to all sorts of abuse. Is it any wonder, then, the kid neys become diseased and fail in their duties of poison elimination? Poisons are constantly being created in our bodies and if the kidneys fail to carry them off they are absorbed by the blood, causing 111 health and misery in the form of headaches, backaches, tired feeling, indigestion, etc You may avoid considerable suffering if you heed nature's warnings and as sist the kidneys.
