Modern poultry Iqulture has quite fwell demoin strated that with comparatively Fmall flocks it. is good practice Dwight Misner was formerly a Salem business man, engaged at one time in the automobile busi ness here, and also did some farm ing in Marion county. The Ex tension Service News, Oregon Ag ricultural college, Corvallis, has the following in the June number concerning the successful farm- j ing operations of Mr. Misner in Morrow county: Dwight Misner, Morrow county. used to be a traveling salesman. His company Bent him out to Morrow county once to look over some farm property. After he had viewed the country and the opportunities there the idea of becoming a farmer himself de veloped rapidly, and shortly he returned ,to the county and pur chased 1440 acres. -That was the fall of 1917. Now he Is farming 3500 acres, having half in crop and the other half in summer fal low. The neighbors shook their heads when Mr. Misner bought in Morrow county, because he went out to the northern edge of the county on land which the old- timers said would not grow wheat. The land he purchased was valued at $15 an acre. His land now, and that in bis vicinity. is valued at $30. This Increase is due to the results that Mr. Mis ner has secured from, up-to-date dry farming. Consulted Moro Station One of the first things he did was to go over to the Moro sta tion and study the results there. He found, for Instance, that if he did not get his summer fallow plowed early he might just as well save his time and money and not plow it at all. He learned that it would not make him any money to harrow in wheat in the spring; that Turkey Red was the best winter wheat, and many other valuable pointers. Under his up-to-date system of dry farming he obtained between 18 and 20 bush els an acre last year, and" his place Is considered good for 15 bushels on the average, year in and year out. Developed His Community Not only has Mr. Misner done well for himself but he has as sisted 4n developing the entire neighborhood in which he lives, first, by. his demonstration that much land bordering on the line between success and failure could be thrown into the "success" side of the scales by proper methods; and second, by helping the com munity by his leadership in all progressive affairs. could be carried out by each or ganization in its local territory in the leading daily papers dur ing the week of Egg day celebra tions, it is conceivable that the consumption of poultry products might be doubled or at least yery greatly increased. Such ,a news paper campaign could be supple mented with booklet and leaflet publicity of an educational char acter explaining the varied uses, methods of preparation, and nu tritlTe value of poultry food, pro ducts in the human dietary. Ob viously it would have to be on a scale commensurate with its im portance and educational signifi cance, all of which would require some preliminary work and also something in the way of fundst which per unit of membership would in no sense constitute a hardship. Pages and half pages in the dominant daily papers cir culating in the territory of each association ought to be a leading feature of Egg Day week, which naturally would attract attention to the Importance of egg day cele brations. This is the merest out line of the idea, and is here given with the hope that it will make an appeal to the poultry produc ers, and ultimately become a tan gible thing in larger and better Egg Day festivals than any that have been celebrated in the past." It is more comforting to have them bleached a bit than have them sharing the aroma of Wil lie's coveralls or a neighbor's "eczema. The modern laundry has stopped millions of female backaches. It has. prevented thousands of divorces and it has brought content andf smiles to thousands of homes. Monday is no longer a hell to millions of women. 260 North High Street Pkcss 1995 Jay W.

Washing Diseases Away wise, raise one end or tne-poi so that air con circulate under It. TThtunlng Out The earlier vegetables which were planted In April by this time to buy the preparatory feed now will be achieving sizeable propor tions. Now IS the time to see that they are thinned out properly so that they will have a chance to de- veloo. Parsnips, carrots, turnips and various root crops in particu lar should be thinned out as if they are left crowded in the rows none of the roots will have proper opportunity to develop, Beets need thinning because it Is Impossible to sow them thinly. each 'eed" which Is In reality a fruit, containing several seeds so that young beets almost Invaria bly grow In bunches. Study direc tions as to the proper distances apart for vegetables and adhere to them strictly. Head lettuce in particular, If it la to head, must be given room Too close quarters is one of the chief reasons for failure to head. The plants should have six inches either way and should barely touch their neighbors when full grown. so generally usea. inese are balanced and cover nearly every purpose. Common practice die tates a mash food in the morning, green stuff at noon and mixed grain at night. Confined birds should have scratching facilities. consisting of litter into whicn small grains are scattered, which tends to keen the birds active. There is no commercial agency actually preventing disease, like the1 present day laundry. Yet, laundries are never mentioned by authorities on disease prevention because they are cold-blooded business affairs and not fussy committees or societies. j It requires little stretch of the imagination to picture the prim itive laundries along the banks of any average European stream from its beginning as a tiny brooklet to its sluggish river for mation. The women are gather ed for miles and miles along this stream, rubbing and scrubbing their filthy family washings. The inhabitants close to the stream, for the most part, use this diluted wasb water for drinking purposes. The people drinkt dilutedly of that which the inhabitants up stream have worn undiiutedly. From the rubbing stones to the wash tub, there is a step forward, inasmuch as. the wash tub water is usually disposed of as surface water, but from the wash tub to the modern laundry there is a thousand league leap of progress. Our present-day laundry begins its health crusade at the start. It does not pollute water supplies.

No home laundry invention has ever solved the problem of pro ducing lots of hot water for the tired housewife without making extra work. The laborer's underwear and Aunt Lucy's brassiere both come home from the laundry clean and sweet. They are not only clean, white and sweet, but they are practically as sterile as the sur geon's gown. The bleaches which the laundry uses are the agents that make this possible.

Without laundries every large city In the country would be constantly in the throes of epidemics of contagious skin dis eases. What part the laundry plays in the prevention of all communicable diseases is hard to estimate; however, where one pauses to think that these dis eases have taken a decided slump since the spread of the steam laundry idea, it is reasonable to suppose that they have played no inconsiderable part. ; It is not high-brow to have a laundry wash your towels and your intimate things.
