Hay and -hops are bringing better prices than a year ago and the decline in hogs is very slight. This is for the country as a whole; The department of agriculture re ports the following comparative farm prices-for leading commodities for November, BDectively: i Wheat,.103.4 cents and 81 and 66.3; potatoes, 134.8 hay, a ton, $11.18 and f 12.19; and $6.41 ; hogs, 10a pounds, Wheat and cotton, have about 40 off from a year remarks "the supply situation: would seem to gustily a price level higher than last yearor farm products, yet prices are the lowest in several years." In fact not since 1921, the de partment says, has the disparity between what the farmer sells and what he buys been as great. We are all worn out with explanations of how it -all came about. Perhaps we can and noting how it has risen in 17 cents, take heart and have may turn. over a new leaf next year. - Dave the Health Unit MEMBERS of the city council will, we believe, have am ple justification in reversing the decision of the bud get committee and restoring the grant for the health unit to $8000. Since this item was reduced .$2000 news was received that if appropriations were left the same as last year the Commonwealth . Fund would make a grant this year of $6500. Now if the item is left as it is in the pro posed budget the county will lose this $6500 which is a straight gift without strings to it except that it is to be spent in the health work. This makes quite a difference. Spending the $2000 will bring in $6500 and as a business proposition it seems advisable to meet the conditions. We fear that if this is not done the health unit may split up, the county, city and school district resuming sep arate staffs, not co-ordinated and by no means so effective as the present well-organized staff. After all what we want is freedom from disease epi demics, safety for our 'supplies of milk and: water, and edu cation of the youth in health habits. We sincerely tr-ist that the council will save the day and save the health pro gram. . . m It is getting time for the business prophecies for 1131 tp.be made. Col. Leonard P. Ayres. an eminent economist who is vice resldent of the Cleveland Trust company, offers the foUowlng: "It now seems likely that business recovery! will begin as a combination of many minor improvements, and that it will be accompanied, by the developments that-normally occur. In such a period. These should include rising treads for short-term In terest rates, bond prices, and stock, prices, and. advances before the end of the year in wholesale prices and industrial employ ment. -Some increases over 19 SO seem probable in building con . struction, Iron and , steel output, and the production of auto ' mobiles. The average levels for industrial wages, the cost of living, and the cost of building will ; probably be lower for 1931 than for 1930." ' Banking Superintendent Schramm is doing a good piece of -work in keeping the banks of the state in sound condition. His policy has been to prevent the- banks from becoming unllquid with frozen assets' thns enabling them times as weU as good.

(County Health Of fleer 1 .One of the important functions ox a health department M pre venting epidemics of comaunf- eablo or so eall e d ontagioua diseases. For centuries- past P ! d emlcs Of smallpox, tjr- paeld, scarlet fever, .diphther ia and.many ether' diseases have run ram pa at through commun 1 1 1 e s with verr little being done to cheek them. The reason for this was that If. V. A. Itaaclaa- TOTT ': little WAS known as to their cause or how they were spread. Wo now know, however, a rreat deal about most of the dangerous communicable diseases, that-practically, all of. them are due to mi croscopic organisms' resembling seeds. It you please. These seeds can be scattered about or sown In a variety of ways; such as by ac tual contact, by healthy, carriers. by milk cases, through water and milk and by insects. If they hap pen to light on a suitable oiL such as a person who is not. Im mune: they quickly "sprout and a- new ease- of contagious disease has developed. , The. method of preventing the particular disease epidemics therefore lies in breaking, the ehain somewhere between seed. sowers and soil. And. the -problems of the Health Department ar either -pre-renting the devel opment; of the seed, preventing the sewing, making the soil un suitable or all of these. In some -diseases such as small pox, we do aot know the exciting cause or "seed" of the illness but we do know how to treat the per son or "soil" so the bacteria seeds will not grow. This is called vac cination. In some diseases, such, as i ty phoid fever and diphtheria, wo know all the essential facts and so we may destroy the bacteria or "seed" by cleanliness and an tiseptics, we can - control the methods , in which they are sown by making sure that water and milk supplies are pure or the soil" may be made unsuitable through artificial immunization. From a practical standpoint In preventing any contagious dis ease we -must know first where the cases are. Board of Health therefore try to make it as easy as possible to find cases-by fur nishing to doctors laboratory fa cilities for diagnosis. In Marion county the County Health Unit furnishes laboratory service of the easier discovery of commun icable diseases. . Doctors as well as others who suspect a disease are then re quired to report the contagious condition to the Health Depart ment. The health officer or his representatives makes a visit to the ease, isolates the patient. tries to trace the source of the disease and- prevents- further spread of the -disease by follow ing up every .known contact with this case and requiring that they too take steps to. protect the community by being isolated or properly immunised. - In. acting the detective on the source of the ; disease and epi demics some very interesting dis coveries are often made. In Sal em some year ago, small epi demics of typhoid and dysentery were traced to "cross connec tions" between the public water supply and an impure supply. These have since been removed. At one of the state institutions several cases of malta fever were believed due to raw milk coming from a herd in which there was abortion disease. A beginning ep idemic of smallpox was traced to a traveling evangelist who had visited the city some Weeks be fore. More often, however., the satisfaction comes not in tracing down the source of an epidemic which has already developed but In extinguishing It at the first case. And this is what usually happens In exery day practice not .very spectacular but extreme ly practical and effective. In Marion county bacteria or finds hard-sledding. Water and milk supplies are protected. cleanliness . and sanitation are common , practice, cases are quickly and effectively isolated. carrier, and missed cases are traced down .and . finally the "human soil" In Uarion- county is becoming less and less suit able for the habitant of danger ous bacteria, because more and more children are becoming im munized against smallpox, diph theria and other diseases. It Is a long Jump from our suscepti ble child to another, and , the germs of smallpox; diphtheria, typhoid find It a discouraging Job.; : ; , . ;v.

"You see I didn't dress vp for yov!" she called gayly as Nancy left the mare at the hitching post and toiled up the last steep bit of dusty trail. And then. abashed at the elegance of her caller's whipcord breeches and white silk shirt, she added tfuick- ly, "but you look so nice I wish had!' A wail from the child in the house effectively drowned Nancy's reply and with a "There, there, muwers coming, precious!' the ( faded bungalow apron dived into j the house, and Nancy, a bit self consciously, followed. There was none of Roger's rustic comfort here. Just make shift, ugly furniture and the clat ter of crowded living. The baby lay in his basket on top of the kitchen table. It was a pretty basket, point d esprit shirred ov er pink silk. Helen McKimmons' chapped little hand caressed it while she talked. "I Just hate to have him outgrowing his bassin et," the said. "I did have the darlingest layette for him, but of course, after he came it wore out pretty quick. I dont believe there's much left to show you. Oh yes, his little blue sack and booties. He's never wore them. People give you things like that and they NEVER need them now where did' I put them?" She pushed her hair out of her eyes with a plump hand and darted back to the other, room. Nancy leaned over and touched the baby's soft cheek. He stared at her with solemn, unblinking eyes. Gingerly she patted a curl ed pink foot escaping from the blanket, and he opened his mouth and howled. "There, lover, did he want his muwer?" Little Mrs. . McKim mons came rushing back. "He's the BEST baby, but it's almost feeding time. Just take that rocking chair, Mrs. Decatur. My, but it's nice to meet - somebody and have a nice talk. I get so lonely. Jack has been gone for almost a ; week ' "And you're all alone AT NIGHT?" Mrs. McKimmons smiled tol erantly. "Oh, yov get used to it. Though It IS lonely. I talk to the baby for company. Before he came I used to talk to myself, honestly. You'd have thought I was crazy But it's going to be wonderful, having you. I thought I wouldn't make company of you but you look- so swell I Just envy you!" i Nancy Jerked at the. collar of her smart silk, shirt. "I ride a lot," she said recklessly. i "Well, I. did too, at first. It's about all there-is to 'do up here. But with Junior coming of course I had to stop." Mrs. McKimmons frank gaze ran up and down her visitor's slim figure. "You're Just married, aren't you?" Nancy felt her color rising and raged. -The idea, letting a, girl like Helen ' McKimmons embar ass her! But' the afternoon that had! been' amusing : was ruined. She felt at-a disadvantage. She was the newcomer,' the tender foot. A morbid Inscription that she had once seen lettered over a r grinning skull, "As I. am, so you will be,' popped Into her head. That was what the McKim mons girl was thinking. Broken J. P. Teatch delivered the wel coming address; Blanche Robert son sang; several songs; and talks were . given " by, Ex-governor Geer.rCol, E.

Ill bo back soon!" she promised, and childishly, to her self, "No!" ; She had to stop and tighten the cinch three times on the ride home, and Maggie almost ran away with her when she saw the barn ahead. Roger's battered roadster was out in front when she galloped up to the door. He ran out and lifted her from the saddle. "I heard you've been calling on Helen McKimmons. Saddled old Maggie and everything, didn't you? Say, you're a regular!" The tide of warmth and love that had welled in her heart at sight of him receded, leaving her cold and tired out. "How did you find out?" "Oh somebody at the store ov erheard you girls on the tele phone. They know all your busi ness here you know." "So it seems' she said coolly. When he had gone to unsad dle the horse she went into the kitehen to start dinner. The wood stove was stubborn and would not burn. She Jabbed at the kind ling viciously and got a sliver in her finger. 'Oh, by the way, Nancy, IU have to be leaving you for a couple of days soon," Roger said coming into the room and be ginning to wash at the sink. Dully she watched him splash soapy water into her pot of nice ly peeled potatoes. "And leave me alone?" '0h, come now, honey, you're a ranger's wife." "Take me with you," she whis pered, creeping,, into his arms. He stroked her bright hair ten derly: "Don't make it hard for me, honey. You know I can't." She said nothing more, and presently, with a light kiss tor the top of her head, he disen gaged her clinging arms and sat down to read day before yester day's paper. "Forest fires rag ing in northwest," he read "Hmm hope we don't catch it here!" Nancy did not answer. She was poking cold ashes in the stove. That was the day Cora Craig met Mrs. Herman Porter at the Prescott's garden party. Helen McKimmons telephoned twice, but Nancy didn't go back to the lookout on the hill. "Mrs. McKimmons is a - nice little thing. Dou't ypu like her?" Roger questioned curiously. ' - "Yes, she's awfully nice." "Well, then I should think you, girls " But Nancy's mobile face darkened so quickly that he did not finish. He was going to say "You girls could keep each other company whUe ' McKimmons and I are away." But the least men tion of going away upset her so that he hardly dared speak of it. He wondered how other fellows managed. Perhaps rangers ought not. to marry at all . . . but how could he get along without Nan cy or Nancy without . him. They belonged to each other He followed her out : to 4he lean-to kitchen, suddenly hungry for the sight of her, aching to hold her In his arms. . "Nancy ' ' "" She was making Icing for a cake, whisking the egg-beater, repeating from memory as she whisked "Addi sugar, beat sev en minutes ' , "Roger, Just look in the oven, will you? I can't leave this " He opened the door, eyes still on her. Looks all right to me oh. Nancy girl, you're beautiful, I don't suppose anyone ever told you that before!' . "Look at the CAKE!" "Never mind the cake. What's a cake? Love your old man, honey? Do you? Just a little " CHAPTER XXm. .It helped to pass the time, dreaming about what - Jack was doing. It was a sort of game. Im agining herself at his side., tak ing her place as his wife. She would see herself, slim and-gold en and beautiful, .dropping; an er- i mine wrap carelessly behind her at the horseshow, leaning -forward In her glittering gorgeous gown to watch Jack's hunter take tho blue ribbon ... Riding in his low slung; powerful car, heedless of traffic cops ... speeding-, . . Wearing ' expensive, disarmingly simple tailor mades, half smoth ered In silver fox- furs. Just a game! She didn't want that life really . . . not If it would mean giving up Roger Roger, her lover. And she'd fly to the window and begin watching for him . . . hours before he could possibly re turn. He never had to wait for his dinner. The table was always set and the food dried up to a mere nothing before 6. "Why don't you take Maggie and ride-in the afternoons?" he asked her, over and over. "I will sometime," she'd , say evasively. Tho truth was she didn't enjoy riding alone. With him beside her she rode like a cowgirl, clatter ing down rocky chasms, racing around hairpin curves, heedless of danger, her eyes sparkling, her hair flying part of the horse. Alone she rode slowly, her eyes on the horse's ears, nervous, wor ried, picturing, herself and the horse at the bottom of every cliff. And, besides, she'd always be wondering if he hadn't got home early, and turn back to make sure, before her ride had really begun. One night he asked her again: "Don't you care to ride Maggie?" "Not particularly, alone." (To bo continued) The Safety Valve - - Letters from Statesman Readers STAYTON. Dec 16. I shall briefly describe some Rogue river fishing sworn details can come later. During 141 fish days the majority of fishermen get board and clothes, but must follow something else the balance of the year to exist. And in run hv they paid two prices tor supplies at cannery stores, it the Macleay Estate company fish monopoly would cut Into small tracts Its 17.000-acre river frontage and sell reasonable, that handful of fishermen, would not need to fish except with hook and . line.

A Klickitat war rior raised no rrom nenina a row. and shot at Mark but missed him. The next time the Indian ralaed his head. Mark put a ballet through it and then ran down and got his scalp. Tho other In dians tried to keep nun rrom eearDinar the Indian he had killed and ther. all fired at nark, jay brother-in-law.

I kept it for years, but tho moths get in it and tho hair began shedding, so I burned it up. V V "I have always liked Indians. One ot the. prettiest Indian girls I ever saw was Frances,- the In dian girl Lieutenant Philip H. Sheridan lived with; She was a Rogue River Indian girl. She was as graceful as a deer and as slen der as a fawn. She loved Sheridan devotedly. Her brother was a fine looking Indian, too. He was nam ed Harney, after an army officer. He was a teamster for tho troops. When the- Civil war broke out and Sheridan was called east. Frances was almost broken heart ed. (The mother of the Bits man, who was a neighbor of the Oil liams, remembered tho Indian girl Frances and often told of string her Tiding, over the pioneer trails .with .Lieutenant Sheridan. There were many old stories of the kind in pioneer times connecting the nsmes of army officers and other prominent men with those of In dian women: do doubt many of them true, and some of them fan ciful.) - "After the war Genreral Sheridan- fixed It up for tour of the Indians to come back at govern ment expense and visit the 'Great White Father, as they call the president. Frances, her brother Harney, and two other Indians went. Frances came and showed me all her clothes. She had a fine outfit for the trip. Years later she lived at Corvallis and did wash ing. Any of the old timers at Cor vallis can tell you about her. "When the soldiers would leave Fort Hosklns or Fort Yamhill their Indian wives would follow them to where they embarked for the east. Frequently they would have to say boodbye at Corvallis. I The Indian women would feel aw fully bad to nave ineir soiaier lovers leave, as they knew they would never see them again. a "When we came here In 1844 our claim was a- great camping place for the Indians. There would be scores ot tepees along the creek. -It was like a big camp meeting, only they were Indians in place of white people and in stead of meeting to sing and pray they had met to race horses and gamble. We children used to love to go to their camp and. watch them gamble. They would spread out a blanket and put the stakes on the blanket. They would stake everything- they had on the game, staking their beads' and blankets should obtain for the Rogue, and when that law is passed there should be put - Into the Oregon constitution an exception clause (like the one In the federal con stitution) forbidding all courts from passing upon any law in which said exception clause fs used.

First they would bet all the horses they had, then their , guns and beads and blankets, and often an Indian would be stripped almost naked as tho result of a dose race, a "One Indian family had theii tepee near our house. They stay, ed all summer. There was a little girl just my age, eight years oil We loved each-other like sisters Sld-na-yah used to come at milk lag- time-and X would give her a cup of warm milk. We wonM drink from the same cup. She wai ray only playmate. She was near kin to tho head chief. She was taken sick and they called la an Indian medietas man. They 4et my sister Henrietta and mo In the tepee where he was beating sticks and hollering; and trying to drive out tho evil spirit. She died. The chief came and asked my mother it my sister Rettio and I could go to the funeral. Mother let us go. The Indians took a milk pan full of beads and broke them up and scattered them- all over her. After their ceremonies were over they buried her on the hillside near our house. They shot her horse and placed it near the head ot her grave and her favorite dog they kUled and put at tho foot of her grave. They put poles around her grave on which they fastened all of her buckskin dresses and other treasures. Next year when her mother came back and saw Rettle and me. she cried as if her heart would break. She-went out often to 8id-na-yahs grave. Poople think Indians don't love or" have -any feelings because they do not wear their hearts on their sleeves: but X believe Indians feel as deep ly and love as trudy as white folks. The emigrants brought tho measles- to Oregon. The Indians didn't know how to doctor them. They would go In on of their sweat houses and then Jump in a cold stream and It usually killed them. One season we heard fre quent wailing from the Indian camp near us. Quatley, the chief, told my mother ail their children were dying of the white man's disease. We children .got the measles, but mother doctored us successfully. An Indian medicine man came to our house for pro tection. He said his patients all died so the Indians were going to kin him for claiming he could cure them and not doing so. When he thought the coast was clear he started off. but Just then Quatley rode up. The Indian whipped his horse and started off at a keen run. Quatley took good aim and shot and the medicine man went over his horse headfirst and only lived a little while. When Quat ley saw that we children- all got wen of the measles he came to mother and said, 'Your children get well, all our children die. Your medicine is stronger than ours. My little girl is sick, I want you to cure her.' My mother said, 'No, I won't try. If she dies you will kill me like you killed your medi cine man the other day. Quatley said, 'If you don't treat her she will die. so I will let you do what you will. If she dies I will not blame you.' Mother had tho chief's daughter come to our house. She kept her out of tho draft and gave her herbs and teas and she soon was well. Quatley drove up his herd of horses and said, 'You have saved my little girl, for me. Take all the horses you want. Mother told him she didn't want any. He kept us sup plied with game as long, as we . camped In that neighborhood. Anything he had he shared with us. He kept our loft full of hasel nuts and he had the squaws bring us all the huckleberries we could use. As long- as Quatley wai la tho country wo never lacked for deer meat.
