Oregon is peculiarly and pro nouncedly favorable for prime live stock production. As far back as 1908 and 1909, buck lambs from Cotswold sheep were shipped by trainload from the Willamette val ley into Montana, Wyoming and other distant ranges to be placed jt the head of flocks of range sheep. Ten dollars and more a head was paid for them when on the block at home they wouldn't have brought half that price. They yielded a better carcass, more and better long wool than the sheep of other regions. In 1911 a leading importer of long wool sheep, with headquarters in Wisconsin, exhibited at a , Portland midwinter 'sheep show against ani mals from Polk county, Oregon.

He daacrftas - tbe baxrowa and tolls what intereatinf reMoe-, are ionnd within them. , Late last fall I stood at Stonehenge and watched the plane, from the nearby aviation field circling and sktm- mtng and darting about like a flock of swallows at play. Looking at Stone- henge's time-worn stones, put there not less -than 1700 years before the Chris tian era by a race that has long since vanished from the earth, and then see ing a Handley-Page, with lt3 powerful Liberty, motor, swoop over me, gave me a strong feeling of vivid contrast. This strange stone circlo, or cromlech. In closes within its upright stones some excellent example, of dolmans. A dol man is a table stone, or rather, a stone slab set tablewise on three or some times four upright stones. Here, too, are single upright stones, or "high stones," called menhirs. Here in all direction, are to be seen the "barrows' of the long vanished race, who lived when Stonehenge was built. a Does 8tonehenge belong to the period of the "long-heiced" race, whose skulls. ornaments and utensils are found In the long barrows, or to the age of the "round-headed" type, whose barrow. are so numerous about Stonehenge? Were the builders Phoenicians? Who shall say? Standing on the Hele stone, or on the Altar stone, and looking over the downs one sees scores of rounded mounds. In other words, Stonehenge was the temple of this vanished race, and these raised mounds, or barrows, are the graves of the worshipers, or perhaps of the priests and wise men who conducted the services in this temple, of stone. There are over 300 round barrows and two long barrows In the Immediate vicinity of Stonehenge. The barrows are on the crest of the rolling land billows and . from each barrow 1 the ancient temple can be seen. Locally the barrows are called long, round. bowl, disc or bell barrows. There are 72 long barrows on Wiltshire downs. They are anywhere from 200 to 400 feet long, SO feet wide and from four to 12 feet high. The long barrows point east and west, the eastern end being higher than the western. In these long bar rows, flint arrowheads and spearheads and hand formed pottery are found. There are more than 2000 round bar rows in Wiltshire. The bowl-shaped barrow is exactly like an Inverted bowl and is from 20 to 60 feet in diameter and four or five feet high. The bell barrows are cone-shaped and. have ditch around them with a circle ot earth around the sditch. They are 10 or f8 feet high and about 100 feet across. The dlso barrow has a .small mound sur mounted by a circular embankment. In many of the barrows the bodies have been cremated. In others the bodies are burled In a crouching attitude. The hands are placed over the - face. It is as though a man knelt and then bowed till hi. forehead touched the earth. Al most always the head point, toward the north. In many of the grave, the ashes of the dead are burled in cine rary urns. With the ashes of the dead were burled Incense cups, drinking cups, ornaments, weapon, and food vessels. The ornaments are' usually of amber or gold, the weapons are of flint and ' sometimes bronze daggers have been found - with the stone " axes, flint daggers and flint Javelin heads. One amber necklace had 200 reddish yellow beads In it, a a " - Standing on the old Slaughter stone at Stonehenge it is Interesting to look out over the rolling hills on which, far as the eye can reach, rise the barrow, of a long gone race, and think how the "long-headed" people at "the close of the' glacial epoch came from out of the mysterious east, to be succeeded by the "round-headed" race, which was followed by the Roman, the Saxon, the Dane and the Normans. Where did the earliest residents come from? Scien tists say they started in India and thence, by way of Persia, Palestine, Arabia, Morocco, Algeria, Tunis, Spain, Portugal and Britanny, finally drifted to Devon and ' Cornwall. The "long headed" , people were . herdsmen. - They were driven out by the "round-headed" people of Gaul, who were farmers. The long-headed people had fair hair and possibly oame from Iberia; while the round-headed people had dark, curly hair and were taller, stronger and more warlike than the falr-halced people who gave way before them and about whose monuments and graves we .peculate to day.

HEALTH INSURANCE (No. 4) The methods of reaching the same health victory for a whole nation at home as for an army abroad are twofold : First, the providing of a fund which will In sure first class medical attendance and hospital care wherever needed, for every member of the community who falls sick; second, a more effective and Intel ligent distribution of the working force and skill ot the medical and nursing professions. And as, - of course, the most crying need for better and more adequate medical attention and sick care is among the great working masses of the community anywhere from 65 to 85 per cent of it all of the schemes proposed for adequate health Insurance or sickness Insurance deal chiefly with this working class. The methods of health insurance which are now In force and have been for from five to 20 years past in something like half the countries of Europe nota bly England, Holland. Sweden. Belirlum and' Germany, provide first of all for the collection of a small weekly pre mlum or rather, set of premiums, for each worker whose Income or wages are below a certain fixed amount per weeK, usually about 25 shillings a week in England, or 20 marks a week as In Germany, which would be the practical equivalent of about $16 a week here. The premium is a very small one, about 15 or 20 cents a week, and to this the em ployer of the worker Is required to add an equal sum, while the government it self contributes another like amount. bringing the sum available up to about 50 cents a week or 2 a month. Tomorrow: Health Insurance (No. 6) on general principles mean the same and one. for what hurts one hurts both. So let's - go forth as one and fight the money hog who wishes to upset the laws of our government by cutting the price of farm products and labor that he may satisfy his greed. I will say that the farmers in this vicinity will not calmly stand for any fooling with tbe set price or wneat. which virtually govern, the price of farm products, and we don't consider we have any medicine to take! as Mr. Wilson advises.

To the Editor of The Journal With pleasure I notice the re mark, of J. M. Teague relating to Presi dent Wils'ii and hi. critic In yester day's Journal. Like him, 1 am an aa mirer of the president I like his ad ministration. I like his speecnee at home and abroad, and if anyone wishes to read or reread them any time In th future I will lend him ray big scrap- hrtoic: for. he will rind tnem au mere. A few days ago I wrote him the best letter I knew how and sent it away "over there" Just .to compliment him on the great work he Is doing for world peace and humanity. I despise the little ness of a few of our seven-by-nine poli tician, and congressmen In trying .to belittle and Injure thegreat work of our president to establish a league of na tions. X place Washington, Lincoln and Wilson In the same class a. our three ereateet presidents. I have too much confidence in tha ability and sound Judg ment of President Wilson to believe they can upset his work. - Mr. Teague call, him the. "greatest president this country ever had or ever will have." In this I must disagree with him just a little. X am willing to admit that X believe him to be tha greatest president this country has had since Lincoln, bat to aay that he Is the great est wa ever "will have" Uthe limit of Imagination. X have too much faith in the people ot this country to believe that have competent women. When we Pro hibitionist, fairly get together once we will find the right candidat. !
