"HELU" SAYS POET
(Salem Burttn of Th Journal.) ,
Salem. Or.. Dec, 13. "It haa been
cessary to refuse to fcdmlt patients
from cractlcallv every county In the
state. exceDt aa"vacaricles . have Been
caused bv death, narole. or other cause,
declared the members ot thcboard ot
trustees of the state Institution for
feebla minded. In the nreface of the bi
ennial report of Superintendent Frank
E. Smith. "This has been roost Incon
venient, not to ths counties alone, but
to the management of the institution as
well, and for this Dhase of the work in
particular the board bespeaks your most
careful consideration " -. ):
According to Superintendent Smith's
report, there were 181 patients In the
Institution at the beginning of the last
biennial period and 180 at the close.
There ; are about 74 children in 4he
school department.-1-, rLzJ:i . j.; ,
- "By a system of exchange authorized
by the board, we have been able to save
for the state about $2000 from the sur
plus products raised on the farm, that
otherwise would have been wasted,"
says the report "I would favor law
permitting funds realized from the sals'
of surplus products to be-expended un
der surveillance of the board, for the
betterment of the Institution, instead of
reverting to tho genera fund." '
Dr. Smith urges the state to employ
a dentist to attend to the aeeds of the;
inmates of all stats Institutions, . lis
also says;
"After a careful Study of this class ot
unfortunates, I am fully convinced that
a law permitting sterilization should be
enacted, not only for the protection of
society.' but also as a direct benefit to
the individual.? , : 1

St. Helens, Or.,' Deoi 13. The ability
of an old orchard to "come back" has
bn demonstrated in this county by
rsnrra w Perry, of Houlton, and Coun-
tv Fruit . Insnector James Pomeroy, of
ScaDnoose. - OnUhe old Perry donation
land claim a 10-acre tract was set to
apples by F. G. Perry In 1856. After the
death Of this pioneer, the orchard be
came a neglected estate, and fir trees
crew uo between the apple rows. A
few years ago these forest trees had
grown to a height of 60 feet, But now
George Perry has reclaimed, recleared
and sprayed the pioneer orchard, and
every year Is getting a better quality of
fruit from It The fruit is now of good

Killing Contest Frowned Upon
t, by Civic Association
- Committee. 1
Baltimore, Md., Dec. U. The Amer
ican Civic association convention , here
heard a report from its fly fighting com
mltte.-ChaIrman-Edward - Hatch Jr.
expressed the hope that there may be
no more fly killing contests.5
This sentiment took the assembled fly
fighters by surprise, which was dissi.
pated, however, when Mr, Hatch said:
"We cannot insist too much or too
often upon cleanliness as the begin
ning, rniddleand end of the fly fight
ing campaign. 'Swat the fly!' 'Swat the
f ly !V as a slogan must give f way to
starve the fly!" The latter, ia more e"r
phonlous and Infinitely more practical."
Mr. Hatch said the committee was
able to report the most successful year's
work since the inauguration of the pop
ular movement looking to the extermin
ation of the house fly in 1908.
In its concluding phrases the commit
tee's report made a feature of the fact
that in cities inwhtcb. substantial cash
prizes were awarded, la no case did the
number of flies killed in the whole of
a campaign exceed the quantity which
could easily have been reared from an
averaged sized pile of - stable refuse in
the course of a few weeks. ' .
While the educational value of such
fly killing campaigns cannot be over
estimated, the report said It would seem
that greater results might be obtained
by conducting campaigns against dirty
stables and backyards, garbage neaps
and dumps, and all places that produnce
flies and supply them with infection.
