Here and There
Charged with distributing liquor to
Indians, E. L. Paddock was Thursday
given a hearing before United States
Commissioner Bert C. Thomas, and
eufficient evidence found to bring
him over to the action of the federal
grand jury. It developed during the
hearing that Paddock, who Is a
brakeman on the train between Chil
oquin and this city, had furnished
two young Indians whiskey in a car
near the Southern Pacific station,
where they had caroused and played
cards at night. Klamath Falls Her

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

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.

Salary Reports
Must Be Filed
The Impression prevails that all
information regarding Incomes Is em
bodied in the returns made on In
come tax blanks recently sent out by
the collector of internal revenue for
this district, but such is not the case.
One item generally overlooked Is that
relating to salaries. It Is necessary
for every person, firm or corporation
paying salaries amounting to $800
or more during 1917 to report same
under oath to the commissioner of
Internal revenue, sorting division,
Washington, D. C, on special forms
furnished by Collector Milton A. Mil
ler, Portland, Ore. These reports
must be filed on or before April 1.

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.
