It has been fed to farm stock along with the seed and has done the stock no good. Cattle and sheep do not like the fiber and the seed cake Is better without it.

The northwest annually produces a million and a half tons of flax stalks which are not now used for anything. That amount of waste remains after the twine makers take all they want. It makes excellent paper. The farmers in the south burn or plow under 13,000,000 tons of cotton stalks every year. That which Is plowed under is not wholly lost, for it enriches the soil to some extent, but not so with what goes up ln smoke. j COLDS The very hour a cold starts Is the time to check It.

Lists of fibrous or woody plants suitable for paper are almost without limit, but only a few may be hadUn any quantity sufficiently large to be worth considering. The time has not yet come when It Is absolutely necessary that substi tutes for wood pulp be found, but It is coming. The forests are still able to furnish materials for paper, but they cannot continue to do so for a great many years to come, at the present rate of cutting and growth. Makers of paper anticipate a scarcity of pulp wood and It Is this which prompts the active search now going on for substitutes. 1 TAKING WALLA WALL CENSUS. Pastime Parlors COOLEST PLACE IN TOWN.

All Corners of Earth to be Represent ed at Ijambeth Conference. Galtered and aproned bishops of the Angeiican church from all cor ners of the earth 80 of them from America are assembled today In London to take part ln the decennial Lambeth conference. In all, 250 bishops are there, many of whom took part in the Pan-Angellcan con ference, and will represent at the con ference a Christian community of no less than 100,000,000 persons. While the actual business of the conference will not be commenced until Monday, the distinguished churchmen will be received tomorrow at Canterbury. On Sunday there will be a celebration of holy communion at Westminster Ab bey, the sermon to be preached by the Dean of Westminster. England and Wales will be repre sented by 37 bishops at the confer ence. Canada, Australia, India, South Africa, China and Japan have also sent nearly all of their bishops, Among .the delegates Is Assistant Bishop Cluwolle, a full-blooded ne gro who has many native clergymen under his Jurisdiction in the Jungles of the dark continent. The United States has by far the largest represen tation. The conference will continue to Au gust 6. Among the subjects slated for discussion are the relations of the church to modern thought, science, philosophy, democracy and social and economic questions. Religious edu cation in schools, supply and training of clergy, foreign missions, reunion and intercommunion, prayer book adaptation, marriage problems, di vorce, "race suicide," faith healing, and Christian science are other prob lems which will be considered. It must be understood that while the decisions of the conference will carry great weight with churchmen the world over, they will have no binding effect on anybody. They will be simply expressions of opinion by the leaders of the church which the various branches of the Angeiican communion may or may not adopt as they please. Wanted, at Onoe. Oood clean rag: market price paid. East Oregenlan fftce. lar nature, are questions which have popped up in La Grande today and which local attorneys are wasting brain matter over. It is likely that the supreme court will have to decide on some of these Issues in the near future, but until it does, there will be a considerable quandry in La Grande. At short no tlce, several attorneys of the city have today agreed on various phases of the shipping laws. It Is the concensus of opinion that liquor can be shipped In and out of this city without molesta tation by the authorities. There is a restriction, of course, and that Is that no local dealer can ship liquors out that have not been paid for before the law became effective as they would then be violating the provision which stipulates that liqudr cannot be sold, exchanged or given away in dry county. That does not provide that a foreign shipper can supply lo cal wholesalers or retailers, but for domestic purposes only. It also ap pears that liquor can be shipped from La Grande to any outside point, pro vlded, as stated before, there Is no deal to be construed as exchanging, giving away or selling. That series of provisions naturally dispels any possibility of manufacturing the 11 quor ln Union county for sale out of the county. It Is only to be expected that some one will violate the law unlntentlon ally or otherwise, and thus bring the matter before the supreme court, to have it acted upon by that august body. La Grande Observer. FERN'S PRESERVE FOOD. Eurojenns SticceSNfully Use the Leaves In Many Ways. Consul General Richard Guenther, of Frankfort, advises that a newspa per of that German city states that the fern plant, which grows almost every where, Is an excellent preservative for nucklne articles of food, fruit, etc. A summary of the article follows: People who have lived in England know that the English have used it successfully for many years. Valua ble fruit, fresh butter, etc.. are no longer seen ln the English markets nacked In eraDevine leaves, but al most always In fresh fern leaves, which keep the articles excellently. This Is done where grapevine leaves are to be had In abundance. Every one posted well In botany knows the hleh nreservative power of fern leaves with reference to vegetable and animal substances. On the Isle of. Man fresh herrings are packed In ferns and arrive on the market In as fresh a condition as when they were shlppea. Potatoes packed In ferns keep many months longer than others packed only In straw. Experiments maae wun Doin straw and fern leaves ln the same cel lar Bhowed surprising results In favor of ferns. While the potatoes packed In straw mostly showed signs of rot ting ln the spring, those In ferns were as fresh as If they had just rjeen dug. Fresh meat Is also well preserved by fern leaves. It would seem as If the highly preservative qualities of fern leaves are due to their high per centage of salt. No larvae, maggots, etc., approach ferns, as the strong odor keeps them away.
