to . coerce timid officials . against

whereas, the laws ot

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

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. Is all that
can be recommended. : ; ? '

T'HEUE are people who insert ads in the newspaper Who

For example take an ad like this:
" S-room house and garage for sale, a sacrifice; come

This person does not realize that there are hundreds
of people in Salem who have desirable property to sell.
He has a wonderful little borne that sliould find a ready -market,
cmdyet-h8':lKis:nbt'm single saleable
feature that would attract a person who is in the market
tcr the place. '
IIov let's take the same property advertised above
and bring out the saleable points and see if we get better

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.' -

Poultry Experts ; at the OAC

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;
