BENTON THRESHERMEN ADOPT A WAGE SCALE AND THRESHING FEES Harvest Hands to Receive $3 a Day and Board; Threshing Wheat to Cost 25 Cents. Corvallis, June 24. The Threshermen's association of Benton county has fixed threshing prlceB and wage scale for the coming season, and also took up the problem of securing help and operat ing cook wagons. The wage scale adopt ed was $3 per day and board for men. and $4 for man and team, and the price for threshing -was agreed upon at 25 cents per sack for wheat and 20 cents for oats. If It becomes necessary to pay a higher wage scale to secure help, a proportionate advance of the thresh ing scale will be made. Many of the threshermen favored doing away with the sack-sewers this year and equipping their machines to handle grain in bulk only. Where it is not possible to thresh directly into a bin or wagon box, it was recommended that sacks be only partly' filled and dumped. In order to avoid the purchase of new sacks. It was the sentiment of the association to cooperate fully and unselfishly for the interests of all. More Called in Draft Corvallis, June 24.

Rejection on account of de fective vision was in a much larger proportion than the next largest cause, which was hernia. It was larger than any other two put together. It was simply heart-breaking to see the number -of stalwart young fellows fit in every other way, in the pink of-physical condition, falling down on but one thing, defective vision. Of men with defective vision, over 700 or 800 in the first draft, only one had organic disease of the eye. Only two of them showed any seri ous degree of astigmatism. All the rest of them with defective vision were rejected on account of errors of refraction, most of which could be remedied by glasses. Another interesting experi ence was the small percentage of thes men who were wearing glasses. I should say that 6o per cent or 70 per cent of them did not know they had any error of refraction."
