Agents of a company seeking to drill for oil are In this section and, It Is said, .are offering exceptional Inducements to owners of land for opportunities to drill for oil. The Record has been informed the rep resentatlves of the oil Interests have asked for the right to drill In several places and declare they want no op tions until they have brought their equipment On the ground. The terms of the option, as verbally outlined, are said to be quite liberal more so than any of the kind ever offered here in the past. Many landowners who have been approached have In dicated a willingness to allow the men to go ahead. Marshfield Rec ord. That all of the United States troops destined for service overseas are not being sent to France, is indi cated by a letter just received this morning by Mrs. Carmony of this city, from her son Glenn, who has been In training at the Wasco, Texas, aviation field. Glenn . Carmony writes that before his letter shall have reached his mother the 834th aero squadron will be m route to Long Island, New York, and after a short time there will sail for some where in Egypt. Thla well-known Roseburg soldier lad says that the men in his squadron have been is sued complete outfits of new cloth ing, the lightest that can be had, so that they will be able to withstand the blistering heat of the Egyptian country, and are looking forward with eagerness to the work that lies before them in the campaign there. In the same detachment with young Carmony are three other well-known Roseburg boys, Frand Shlleds, Frank Langenberg and Howard Roblnett No other details of the anticipated sailing were given in the letter,. Roseburg News. IT. Conservation. (A. Conserva tion of Food.) The production of standard vegetable products in home gardens to be advocated. A greater production of poultry, bees and rab bits to be stimulated and encouraged throughout the county. As there were homes In Jackson county last year that made little attempt to pre serve fruits and vegetables for home use, a greater campaign is to be made tills year for preservation by means of drying and canning fruits and veg etables and by water-glassing eggs. Greater stress Is to be placed on the war substitutes for the saving of those foods needed by the soldiers and allies. A study of food values and balanced menus will be taken up In the study classes. (B. Conserva tion of Clothing.) Attention will be called to the necessity of conserving textiles. Large quantities of cotton are being used in the manufacture of explosives. Linen is needed in aeroplane construction, and we know of the scarcity of wool and of leath er. Proper selection, repairing and renovating of clothing will be the main features of this project. (C. Conservation of Health.) Better sanitary conditions in and around country homes', fly campaigns, and hot, lunch work in rural schools are subjects to be given attention. III. Household Management. It Is Important at this time that steps be taken to simplify the work in the home as women are having many de mands made on their time. Labor- saving devices, account-keeping and the organization of work In the home are problems that will be taken up and discussed in order to make for more efficient home work. IV. Home Demonstration Tour. Later in the year it Is being planned to have a home demonstration tour made of Jackson county. Women from all communities will participate in this tour, stopping at certain homes in order to study conveniences and arrangements. A tour of this kind will not only be of great pleas ure and Interest, but may result in the Improvement of many homes. It Is not desired or hoped for that any one community may work out this entire program, but each com munlty may select those features which seem most necessary for that community. This program of work is to be correlated In every possible way with tho program of the Indus trial Club work and the agricultural committees of the county. It is be lieved that an effective working out of this program cannot but assist in the enrichment and the betterment of home life in Jackson county. 1 Honest to.

Corvallls, Ore., Feb. 28. Ashes are worth a careful trial as a fertil izer this year in the preparation of garden land, In view of the high price of other fertilizers. Hardwood ashes are the best, and when kept dry till applied to the soil they add lime, potash and phosphoric acid. The lime has a beneficial ef fect on the soil and on many vegeta bles. It improves the physical con dition of heavy soils by separating the fine particles and making tho soil more porous. It also serves to repel Insect pests. The potash la in a fine ly divided form, readily available as a plant food. From 30 to 50 pounds per square rod are recommended by Prof. A. G. Bouquet of O, A. C. They are' broad casted and thoroughly Incorporated with the soil as It Is being worked up in the spring. Too heavy an applica tion tends to make the soil alkaline, a condition unfavorable to vegetable growth. Ashes are also likely to In crease scablness of potatoes and should not be used on patato lands. 1 Soft wood ashes, leached hardwood ashes, coal ashes and Incinerator ashes usually contain much less of I the valuable soli and plant element.
