An appro priation of $20,069.44' will be asked of the state legislature by the pub lic service commission for the sup port of the commission's; grain in spection departments at Portland and Astoria, according1 to an esti t mate submitted to Secretary of State Kozer Saturday. j i i The estimate shews the total needs :of the department for the forthcoming ti ennium to be $138,221, with fees for the two year period estimated at $118,155.58. Under the act creating the grain inspec tion department it i was contemplated that the fees would maintain the de- ' partment' but, as the commission ex plains in Its estimate, competition with the Washington bureau, which Is par tially supported by appropriation, has made this impossible and the Oregon .legislature is asked to make good the estimated deficit. : .. "The commission will also seek an ap propriation of $12,880 for the railroad track scale inspection department. The needs of 'this department for the blen nlura are estimated at $15,380, with re ceipts estimated at $2500. Of the esti mated needs $12,000 is included for the ' purchase of a master track scale.

Dr. Esther Pohl Lovejoy of Portland was in Roseburg this week In the interest of the state board of ; health. : The object of her visit here was to block. the construction , of an institution known .as the Winchester sanitari um, located at Winchester, five miles north of this city, and on the Love joy farm of 660 acres. The city council was convened in spe cial session Wednesday evening to hear objections filed by some of the prom inent people of the! state, as well as some local people, j OBJECTIONS UAISED : The objections axe that this lnstitu tion will be conducted as a tubercular sanitarium and that the most careful methods of sanitation and disposal of sewage will not prevent the waters of the North Umpqua from being contam inated. Another objection was that the institution will .draw patientB from all parts of the United States, and that many will become paupers and be left for the county and state to take care of. It was cited as a money making insti tution by Mrs. Saidie Orr Dunbar, sec retary of the Oregon State Anti-Tubercular association. She stated that the need Is imperative, but that the associa tion will not favor anything like the pro posed sanitarium at Winchester. Attorney H. V. Mclnturff told the council that the, city has the right and power to prevent anything which might contaminate the water supply of the city. r I OTHERS BISFAVOK PLAIT Attorney O. P. Coshow also spoke In disfavor of the institution, as did At torney George Meuner. I The council took until next Monday to consider what action would be taken. Kegarding the activities being taken against the sanitarium the members of the institution express no fear as to the state board of health stopping the erec tion of the Institution, which is now well under-way. Sewage from the institution, they say, will not be dumped into the North Umpqua river. They point 'out that the sewage and all drainage from hospitals in the city of Roseburg are emptied into the South Umpqua river, five miles above the junction of the North and South Umpqua rivers, and assert .that the federal government can close up Roseburg's sewer system should a com plaint be made regarding contaminating the water. Dr. Ruiter and his associates have been operating an institution for tuber cular patients in Roseburg for the past five years.

Poison Set to Bid Malheur County of Pest of Gophers Ten thousand acres of irrigated lands in the Malheur valley between Ontario and Vale have been poisoned for pocket gophers within the month under the di rection of Everett E. Horn of the rodent control division of the United States bio logical survey, says Ira N. Gabrielson. The average cost an acre has been less than 9 cents. The county-clerk of Mal heur county has been financing the proj ect and has just appropriated $500 more I to carry out the work. The region must ' be poisoned twice to rid it of gophers, although 90 per cent were killed in the first campaign. Damage done by gophers Is greater than that of any other species of rodent, says Gabrielson. The animals bore big holes In the irrigation ditches and on one' farm alone they made seven breaks in the ditch during the summer. In addi tion they uproot the alfalfa. - - Is' IMkKlUUttr t , .... 5S Sirs. Anita Rhodes Labcreo Klamath Falls. Nov! 13.
