With the hardest snow-storm of the winter over, the blanket that cov ers the upper Hood River valley around Mount Hood lodge has set tied down to a foot In depth.

Ward, who has charge of the recruiting in that line here Mr. Ward declares that nearly all the men are skilled in some line es pecially demanded in this work. Strenuous appeals are being made by the United States shipping board to get men at this time.

SEEDS SCARCEUSE IiEFT-OVER STOCKS Corvallis, Ore., Feb. 21. By using the best of vegetable seed stocks left over from last season a good deal can be done to overcome the present ! seed shortatge.

C, offers the fol lowing suggestions as to the use of left-over seed stocks: Beets, cabbage, cauliflower, ruta bagas, turnips and related plants may grow well even If four or five years oldv Spinach does not give so good results In the second or third years. Tomatoes, peppers and egg plants are usually good for three years; squash and pumpkins, five to eight; beans and sweet corn, three; peas and let tuce, three. Onions, parsley, carrot and parsnip seed usually should be fresh, al though two-year-old seed sometimes gives good satisfaction. Onions and parsnips will not usually germinate more than 50 to 60 per cent the sec ond year. All of the short-lived left over seed should be tested for germi nation. The shortage may be further re lieved by estimating the amount needed before purchase, buying good seed from reliable dealers, right prep aration of soil for germination, seed ing at proper time to avoid loss, and thinner seeding In the rows so that fewer plants will be wasted in thin ning. The amount of seed of various kinds required to plant a hundred foot row are given In "The Home Vegetable Garden," No. 287, prepared by Professor Bouquet. Copies may be had on request to O. A. C, Corval lis. RED CROSS WOMEN HELP BOYS SHOP The American soldier In France Is a good fighting man. But when he faces the French shopkeeper, that quick-tongued, sharp-eyed little wom an who keeps the till as full as she can while her husband fights, he is glad enough to have an American woman beside him. So the Red Cross women at the line-of-communlcatlon canteens have a new job. They take the boys out shopping.

There Is usually a troup of youngsters bringing up the rear, chattering and giggling and scrambling now and then for the cop pers that the soldiers throw among them. REASON'S FOR, BUYING WAR SAVINGS STAMPS Seven reasons for saving and In vesting in thrift stamps and war sav ings stamps: 1. Save for your country's sake, because It Is now spending millions a day, and must find most of the money cut of savings. 2. Save for your own sake, be cause work and wages are plentiful and, while prices are high now, a dollar will buy more after the war. 3. Save because, when you spend, you make other people work for you, and the wor.k of everyone Is needed now to win the wan. 4. Save because, by saving, you make things cheaper for everyone, especially for those who are poorer than you. 5. Save because, by going without, you relieve the strain on ships, docks and railways, and make transport cheaper and quicker. 6. Save because, by saving, you set an example that makes It easier for the next man to save. A saving nation is an earning nation. 7. Save because every time you save you help twice, first when you don't spend, and again when you lend to the nation. It is a mighty good thing for our submarines to get practice', but they needn't get their experience by ram ming any more heavily loaded excur- sion boatsi.
