During 19Z3. iu.y maternity caws among Metropoli tan policy-holders, received the care of public health nurses, either working directly for tne company or under arrangement with local health associations The report revealed the fact that , an average of 20.000 mothers die' each year from causes incidental to childbirth. In order to reduce this rate, the company is carrying on an intensive prenatal service. Visiting nurses see the expectant mother once a month from the time a case Is reported until con finement. Following the birth of a child, both mother and baby are cared for daily for eight days. If complications develop, the nurse is privileged to make closer obser vations of the case. An Important feature of the work Is the education given moth- ers regarding their own health arsl the health of infants. They ar instructed to keep in close touch with a physician during pregnancy and to make ample provision for good obstetrical service at con finement. New York City leads the coun try In low mortality due to child bearing. The average In that city Is five deaths for each thous and mothers, while the general rate Is eight for each thousand.

OF WHEAT 15 FELT Crop Damage Reports From tast 0T Mississippi uause . of Price-Record from other sections, although less disturbing, gave emphasis to mis givings in regard to the condition of a large part of the winter crop and led to a steady increase of buying through commission houses as well as to a dearth of offerings. Some of the purchasing, especially of the September delivery, was ascribed to foreign interests. Corn rallied when wheat turned strong, but during the first part of the day had a downward ten dency as a result of speculative selling. Unsettled 'weather likely to break up dirt roads and hinder the movement of corn did more or less to stimulate renewal of buy ing; Besides, word came that five cargoes of corn had already been sold for shipment from Duluth at the opening of lake navigation. Oats were bearishly affected to some extent by rather liberal re ceipts here. Provisions readily responded to an upturn in hog values.

Oregon broccoli is beginning to replace the California cauliflower, which has been offered lor some time.

Senator Johnson, farmer-labor, Minnesota, also joined this group, announcing however, that he was' not "so struck on this bill" and would have preferred that offered by Senator Gooding "if that sen ator had not gotten cold feet" "I wouldn't support this bill." the Minnesota senator said, "if the hanks of the northwest were pre pared to extend this credit, but they are not. The government is clearly to blame for the situation of these farmers. It is time to stop talking here of the republi can or democratic party they are insf as bad from the viewpoint of the farmer." Senator Gooding denied that lack of courage led to the with drawal of his bill.

Uripadier Guard will be accompanied by Mrs. Guard, Major and Mrs. Winterbot- tom,- and Staff Captain and Mrs. Heismger. They will conduct a public meeting Monday night and something of an exceptional na ture in Salvation army affairs is looked for. It is conceded bythe majority of Salvation army officers in the west that Brigadier Guard is one of the best speakers that the Sal vation army has in the west. The field secretary of the organization Is the ono who has immediate di rection or all the field affairs, and that department takes in all the local corps located in the section of the country that comes under his direction. Each corps officer in every community is called a field officer. This is the first visit of the field secretary sto Salem and it is con sidered an unusual thing for a man in his position to visit any thing but a corps at one of the Hi visional centers. Ensign Hol brook looks forward to a record breaking crowd to hear him. . 4114 - - - - v f 5 .

Today we may criticize their methods; de cry their brutalities and needless slan phter of innocent people, Dorn to the nobility through no fault oi their own. 'Scaramouche," soon to be exr hibited at the Oregon theater, is a vivid portrayal of the French Revolution. Might was right ana mieht was the nobility.
