A fire which destroyed the build

Klamath Falls', also endangered the
life of the proprietor, John Flodin,
who was forced to make his escape
through a window after discovering
all other exits barred by the flames.
The cause of the fire Is unknown, as
It started at 2 o'clock Saturday
morning. The stock of groceries and
other goods was destroyed and the
building is in ruins. The loss Is es
tlmated to be $2,000, with insurance
amounting to $1,000.

the winter over, the blanket that cov

Two parcels of right-of-way

been secured by the county court up

been delivered to Douglas county and
ordered made of record, while war
rants In payment therefor have been
ordered drawn. The sum of 474.40
has been paid to F. E;. Johnson for a
strip of right-of-way comprising an
area of 3.44 acres, being at the rate

That twenty-eight men have en
listed as skilled mechanics for ship
building In tho United States service
in the past few days here, is report
ed by Joel T. 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. It is pointed
out that while the government has
the money necessary to buy and man
ufacture the supplies for the United
States and allied troops in France,
the goods will be of no avail unless
tonnage can be secured for trans
portation, which Is the biggest prob

ships a year1, and needs an Immense
amount of skilled labor for the pro

gardening at O. A. 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

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.

submarines to get practice', but they
needn't get their experience by ram
