fiortance is more local terminals. This
s true all over the country. With more
terminals the railroads of this country
could Rive a better service. The rail
roads have reat difficulty in securing
proper1 terminals. The demand of the
Subllc In every state in the United
tates Is for better service. ,The rail
roads have met-this demand as far as
they could by increasing the efficiency

' Boada Staid TTp tot Terminals.
"It is very difficult to secure proper
terminals, because of tha high price
demanded for land in the cities where
the ml Iron rts need terminals. With nroo-
er terminals the railroads can load and
unload their trains with much' greater
speed and thus keep the cars in con

taking of samples of milk delivered in
the city to b subjected to bacteriolog
ical test, and the dispensing of litera
ture, bulletins and other information
that will be of educational value.
Sealers Vast Hare U cense.
These are plans formulated bv the
state board of health, which has decided
that Portland's evil milk supply necessi
tates the application of an extreme rem
edy, and for the time state health
board will take actual part with local
health conserving agencies in the fight.
This means that resident members of
the board will take active leadership
in inspection, in enforcing regulation,
in insisting that no milk be sold without
& license, and In giving Impetus to
any plan for general education of dairy
men and consumers to tha dangers of
curty or aiseasea mux.
That In assuming leadership of the
ngnt ana responsiouitv ror its suc
cess the state board of health struck
a harmonious note of popular favor atid
appreciation is evidenced by the cor
dial expressions which members of that
body are receiving. Another gratifying
feature of the work undertaken Is that
the dairymen themselves take kindly to
the board's supervision. In the Da at two
davs Dr. Robert CTenney, state health
officer, has been receiving communi
cations from dairymen who ask what
they must do to conform to regulations,
how they may adjust their own prem
ises to Uie general requirements of the
board and what they will need to be
nosaesaed of in tha war of eauloment
and sanitary appliance in order to pro

Taft Tires Out Lighter Men.
After luncheon the president again
boarded a stage coach and had a drive
around the floor of the valley before
departing for the ride over the moun

POET'S GENIUS IS
THROWN TO .FLAMES
(Hearat New br Lou pest Leased Wire.)
San Francisco, Oct. 9. It ; has
Just been learned that a number
of valuable manuscript poems
wrlten by Charles Warren Stod
dard Just previous to his death,
which have been sought in this
city and In his old Boston li
brary, have been destroyed.
The information Is furnished
by the dead poet's housekeeper.
She has confessed that a few
.hours before his death he or
dered her to build a fire in his
room. One by one he went over
the manuscripts that lay on a
coverlet and when ho had
finished reading a wave of his
hand consigned them to the
flames. In this manner ha saw
his life work virtually turn to
ashes, for, in addition to tho
poems that never saw the light
of publicity, he destroyed every
verse of his that had been pub
lished. These facta were brought to
tho surface through-the efforts
of Ina Coolbrith, the .poet, and A.
M. Robertson, publisher, to get
possession of tho dead singer's
poems for the purpose of gather-
Ing them all In one volume and
publishing them. '
One poem known to exist was
eagerly sought This was known
nnder two titles,, "In the Shad-
ow"- and "Where Life Frowns."
Perhaps there ware two poems.
If o. both dealt with the drop
