At the Marion County Pomona grarse meeting on Wednesday the l-llowlr.? report was adopted and recoinnendation approved: The. following ; resolution was nnaalmously adopted: . Kesolutlon No. 1 Demanding that the laws ot the United tSates ba ciacsed so as to take the con trol of the money power from bankers and restore it to the peo ple, by the government ' Issuing currency and .fixing Its value and Tolame. Also a resolution calling Tor stricter quarantine against Cali fornia products was adopted. Atont Itecall Petitions Resolution No. 2 Whereas, the laws of the state of Oregon, gov erning the recall of .public offi cials, psnait the securing of sign ers to ' recall petitions, and the .holdiz of such petitions as a club to . coerce timid officials . against rloa such recall petitions 'are whereas, the laws ot tile state are -such that any one if means could hire solicitors, se--lure s!jners to j recall petitions. and hold such, petitions as a club as - aforesaid; ' and, whereas, .the use of the recall for such pur poses tends to destroy democratic or republican government; there fore, resolved, that Marion Coun ty Pomona grange of Patrons of Husbandry, in regular session, de clares that it la the belief of such grange that the ' laws, governing the recall of public officials should be so amended as to provide that recall petitions shall be filed with proper officials within a stated time .limit after date when such petitions are first submitted tor signatures, and such other amend ments as may ' make the ' recall what It was intended to be. ' . Training School Farm V The following report was sub mitted: j . To ' Marlon County Pomona grange of Patrons of Husbandry: Your committee, appointed to Investigate the ; moving of the Oregon state training school sub mits the following report: .soon after the appointment of your committee, the committee was in vited by Governor Walter, M. Pierce to cooperate with the Ore gon state board, of control by making an investigation of th& farms, which the said' board had untier consideration as possible sites for the boys' training school. . Tour committee did so cooper ate with' the board of control, and InvestlgatedlJiha .farms. jreferredLlQ. the committee by the said board, and filed the attached report with the said board of control.' However,' before visiting the farms referred 'to the committee by the board of control, 'members of the " committee visited 1 and In spected, the training school and found the buildings . and equip ment inadequate, and ' the land used by the. school not of the best quality, but "much better than the land in many of the farms of Ore gon.. " ; " -.' ' ." f ; We believe that it would be much better -to leave the training school where it is, with all of its drawbacks, Tather than spend the taxpayers money for a new site which may not be best adapted to the needs of the training 'school. On Feb. 17, 19i4,' the. Oregon Statesman published the attached statement, which was prepared, by the committee. ' ",f So far, the state board of con trol has made no selection' of a site bnt Is expected to dp so In the near future. It would be much better for the training school to remain where it is rather than spend a lot ot mon ey ; for an ' undesirable site. To buy such a site is to repeat what was done ' when the present site was bought. There . should be some means of limiting the amount of land that the school Is to have at its disposal.. Also, there should be some means of preventing one in stitution from being robbed ot its best , land for the benefit of an other institution. JTheL-ixaining-schpQl . . now. : ... has over 500 acres, and a small farm of good soil In additidn, located so as to be operated in connection with the present site.

H. 'VAN TRUMP, F. P. TOWNSEND A. SLAUGHTER, Committee. OREGON NEWS 1 . Farmer's Union Jotcfts THE DALLES; April 25. Op position to any bill in congress that might tend to increase parcel post rates was voiced in a series of addresses to members of the Farmers' Union in this state by Herbert Egbert, president of the organization, who has just return ed from a trip through the Wlllam- ette valley. ' . - - President Egbert urged the farmers and others Interested to write to their respective congress men at once and to also encourage members of the Farm Bureau and others to. take up- and oppose the suggested parcel post and fourth class mail matter increases. .: The s proposal now before con gress is to increase the parcel post rate for the first .zone from. 5 to 15 cents per pound andf for' other zones proportionately. FOOT mi muni DISEASE AFFECTS UFJI FOOTE Dr. B. T. Sims Tells of m. o r x i rv: i u I ing California Dr; II. T. Sims Is a member of the Oregon delegation that 'baa gone to California' to study the foot and mouth disease that is so disturbing the stock and business interests of that state, and which is rallying all the . adjoining states in an effort to keep the scour out of their boundaries. : AVliat ts Is and Does A few days ago, the departme of industrial journalism of the O egon Agricultural college issued press bulletin concerning the di ease, reading as follows: ' Economics of the foot . an mouth disease is of public intere because its destructlveness is teTtlSjzl of the" peopleln the"af- fected area, believes Dr. B. . T. Sims, experiment station.' veterin arian. Because of the rapid spread, the disease soon affects very large numbers of animals. -The produc tiveness and usefulness of all af fected animals are greatly reduced, although the' death rate la low about 2. The cheapest method of control is to eliminate the dis ease by destroying all affeected animals and to ' maintain strict quarantine around centers of In fection, it has been found. Y " "These quarantines include all farm produce, to be effective. Both the producer and consumer are af fected, as a' consequence, and are helping Its entrance into Oregon. "Foot and mouth disease is one of the most destructive diseases of livestock. It affects all cloven footed animals and occasionaliy man particularly children. " This is one of the most highly contag ious diseases known.' Infection may be transmitted in so many ways that control measures neces sarily must be very strict to pre vent its spread. Anything passing through . an in fected -area may spread the disease. This is also true of some other livestock dis eases, but no others spread so rap idly and over so great distances as foot and mouth disease. . -t ""This disease Is a constant men ace to the' livestock industry In some parts of the world, causing immense financial losses. -Foot and mouth disease has broken out several times in the United States the '"Huist recent, prior to the present one in California, being In 1914. It was successfully elimin ated at that time by rigid quaran tine measures. ' ' -; 'Symptoms of the disease, as the name indicates, appear in the mouth- and feet," says Dr.' Sims, 'generally developing about a week after the animal has-been exposed, although this majr Tary.-1 The in side of the month &nd tongue be come inflamed, 'and blisters or ves icles are formed. -There Is a loss of appetite. Animals stand Im movable, with a staring exprea-Bionlesff- look. The mouth Is clos ed, saliva accumulates and may be seen" dropping In long, sticky threads from' the corners of the mouth. These vesicles may " also develop on other parts ot the body. When the feet re affected, the an imals are 'lame: and have a stiff gait if they do not refuse to stand on the feet at all. - The jfeet be come swollen" and painful and ves icles develop there; too. "Other diseases of animals might' be. confused with the foot and mouth disease, but- If any of these nymptomg are displayed, it would be well to bare-the animal examined by veterinarian.' - OREGON SHOWS UP maiiiisi Poultry Experts ; at the OAC Are Doin Big Work and , . Getting Results1 There is going the rounds of the poultry1 and farm press a synopsis of the experimental work that is being carried on by the poultry ex perts of the various agricultural colleges. i In this synopsis Oregon is given credit for four major efforts, as follows: 1. Inheritance of .egg production. 2. Effect of close in terbreeding on egg production and on fertility and hatchability of eggs. ' 3. Inheritance of high egg production., 4. Early laying ma turity in relation to good laying. ' It is known to the Slogaa editor that the poultry experts at Corval lis are also experimenting on . a number of other lines, not the least of which 13' the work looking to a strain of long distance layers; hens that will commence early and lay Jor a long time And our Oregon experts are get ting results, as indicated by our world record winnings.
