Redaction of Ration '
t Causes Apprehension
WASHINGTON. May 20. An
nouncement that the bread ration is
to be reduced on June IS has caused
grave apprehension throughout,. Ger
many. An offlal dispatch today
from Switzerland says that even' the
governmental press has adopted a
tone no less pessimistic than that of
the Socialist papers, which for?ee a
great diminishing of the phys'cal and
general force which helps in sup
porting the 'hardships of the fourtn
year of the war.
"The government Is taking a step
which is bound to distnrb the life
of our war ; diets,' the difratch
from the Berlin Vorwaerts, the lead
ing Socialist organ. -1
U. L. Upson, formerly of Grants
Pass, one of the foremost au'.borities
on poultry raising; has arrived in the
city fh. the course of a tour of the
state as federal poultry huabamlman.
He is making an Investigation 6f all
the large poultry centers of the val
ley, and when questioned with regard
to the industry, stated that he had
found the most thriving r-oultry
areas In the northern part of the
Willamette valley- where the cMmatic
conditions, the production of feed
and the proximity of the Portland
market are favoring eleKnt3. An
other area of profitable po'Jltrv rais
ing in the vicinity of Cottage Grove,
where the growers are going at the
business in a business-like way.
When -asked as to his opto.oi with
regard t the Salem district he de
clared there was none more favor
able In Oregon and with the nse of
proper methods the fowl and egg
business shoud be one of the lead
ing industries. One of 4hc most
striking instances Is foupd at the
Oregon state hospital farm where
Manager Wilcox has several thous-
Land fowls growing and laying accord
ing to the rules of advanced enlture.
Figures from this farm shw that the
average cost per fowl a year Ij $3.16,
while the average egg production Is
about 204 for each fowl. At the
average price of about, 40 cents a
dozen, this gives a net riofit of
$3.77 over the cost of production.
Mr. Upson went on to say with re
gard to the losses arising f'.rm Im
proper methods:
J"It Is costing the farmerj of Ore
gon about $300,000 a year because of
faulty methods of producing and
handling the present egg sipp!r, A
large part of the loss is cccaeioned
by the production of fertile gg3 dur
ing the warm months. For this reas

CAMP LEWIS. TACOMA. Wsh.
May. 20 .The number of requests
for exemption from miltary service
have shown a marked decrease
among national army -men coming
to Camp Lewis since questionnaires
have been required and local boards
have more experience In handling
mew it was announced at mp to
day. The percentage of claims for
exemption at ene time reached 13
per cent and now has dropped to
snmrthlnf like 7 rer cent. Hut the
number, of applications have de
creased greatly, those who are-flung
mnniirainn nro nresslhe their claims
with an earnestness that has brought
srvrral neeuliar situations for the di
vision exemption board to ir.ett. They
ranee all the. war from the man who
asked exemption so he , coiild give
spiritual advice to 100 women to
th mnn who was needed upon a
farm that never required his service
.before the war.
The anneal of a wife agalrst the
hrenkinr nn of her home because of
the war brought to the board one of
the most Interesting casrs, seme of
the details of which were iJven to
the press today. The husband had
been taken Into the army In the
drart. passed by the medlnl board
s physically fit and given a uniform.
The wife, grief strlckaa . at the
thought of separation, appealed to
the board. An extract from her
ttatement follows:
"AnnlW thfnr f WOUld like to
have him undergo a thoro:'H physic
al examination as I don't th'nk he
will qualify for the se'rvicc. Ic the
firr-t place, he Is short, stands Just
five feet one and onehalf inches.
Secondly, as far as I can find out,
his heart Is weak and also one lung.
He has also had seven ribs brtken at
one time and four at anothcrr right
collar bone broken In two places,
left thumb broken and richt band
broken. He has also had both legs
broken at different times, one of
them being broken In the same place
twice." . m
. The request was denied.
It frequeaty happens ta it the sol
dier does not ask exemption, the re
luest being made by his wife or par
eats. Soldiers of the 166th depot bri
gade which contains all the latest ar
rivals In. the draft, today were busy
building bleachers for their baseball
diamond, at one corner of the pa
rade grounds. There Is f reat inter
est In baseball. and Just as soon as
the day'i drilling is done, the dia
mond is filled with ' players. The
casual office of the depot brigade to
day issued a challenge to the mas
tering office for a ball game.
