WILD MUSTARD MATILLA county farm ers will be much interest ed in the subject of kill ing wild mustard and other weeds by use of iron sulphate discussed in a story in this pa per today by Mr. Gambee, in structor in agriculture in the Pendleton high school. There are few suojects of such vital interest to farmers weed killing. If States has undertaken the rais- JHHmuiimmiiHimMHmniiMmilMliHimil!M inn by popular subscription of a fund for tne development ol this art, purchasing machines and training pilots, in both France and Germany similar movements have brought in several million dollars in sup port of the undertaking. Here we have at least equal resourc es, and commercial as well as military advantage can be gained by employment along this line. Boston Post. f ALklV OF U,H GI.OKY."

Incidentally here is another case showing the desirability of the agricultural instruction given in the high school. This is first, last and all the time an a I agricultural county. The farm er ing business is what keeps .Umatilla county on the map (and the business is something about which there is always something new to learn. A I simple suggestion like this one for eradicating wild mustard and other weeds may in time mean hundreds of thousands to the farmers of the county. In many respects agriculture is the most appropriate sub ject taught in the local high school. It is a course which may justly be strengthened and enlarged as time goes by and conditions permit. i.

'ff N connection with the local jl school situation there is one thing that may be laid down as fundamental it is that there should be a city superintendent and that he should be the superintendent. No superintendent can suc ceed if he does not have au thority and the cordial support of the board. He is the man who should handle all the de tails of administration and su pervision. No man can be a OUR HOPE IN THE NAVY HOUGH they object to the proposition of a large army tor the United States the majority of people in this country are pretty well committed to the idea we strong superintendent if board! should have a good substantial others to constantly go around him and tell their - woes and wishes to members of the board. No man could conduct a bus iness of any sort with success if every employe and every cus tomer had opportunity to go above him and possibly have him overruled. Such a policy as that would bring constant confusion and turmoil. This criticism is general, not personal to anyone. But it is a fact that to insure co-operation and efficiency there must be a head to the school system and , there cannot be a half dozen superintendents. Whoever is superintendent should be su perintendent in fact as well as in name. He should have au thority to conduct the schools COSY TONIGHT HER BURIED PAST Two part Majestic with a stirring dramatic story featuring Irene Hunt.

This because we will prob ably never wage an offensive war with any country and if we should be placed on the defen sive the navy would be our strongest fighting arm since the foe would have to come from over the sea. Ex-President Taft is a very sensible critic on the subject of our national defenses and in a recent interview at Kansas City he said: In a defensive war I believe an en emy that had to come to us and land an army on oar coasts would learn something about our navy. The navy Is what we should think about It should be adequate, and the question of Us adequacy should be determined not only by criticism of a national administration or by the opposition party in congress, but by a wise and patriotic public understanding. It might be added that mat ters of naval policy should not be decided for the country by men who have armor plate to sell or who desire to build bat tleships for the country. Their own interests could easily prompt them to give the coun try the wrong advice. European countries are fast demonstrating to the world what an adequate navy consists of. In this connection it must be admitted that the busiest and most efficient sea fighters, considering their cost, are the submarines. Who knows but that by the end of the war the expensive battleship may be as obsolete as the old wooden frigates at the close of the civil war? AVIATION AND WAR VHILE the appropriations "jj? made by the late con gress to provide for an aviation corps in our military and naval departments $300,-1 000 for the army and $1,000, 000 for the navy recognize the place of such service, the importance of this subsidiary arm is not appreciated. Some thing better than this must be done if our facilities for na tional defence are to be main tained. The progress of the war in Europe has demonstrated the desirability of an ample fore of air machines to aid and sup plement armies and navies. The destruction of non-combatants, the harassment of quiet and unfortified towns and vil lages of which there have been too many instances over there are not acts of civilized war, and we do not need avi ators for such service. But there is no question that as ad juncts to land and naval forces they have become indispens able. The Aero Club of the United Buying Artillery Ilorses Fred Loughary of Stanfield, and Zoeth Houser. of Echo, were In Heppner last Saturday. These gentlemen were over in this section looking over the prospects for buying horses. Mr. Loughary is a well known man , of Stanfield, and Mr. Houser Is prob ably one of the best known residents of the Echo country, where he has lived for over 30 years. These men have an ad elsewhere In this issue of the Herald, which states about the kind of horses and mules they wish to buy. They are buying a large number of horses and mules suitable for artillery purposes over in Europe. They are the official buyers for Mr. W. N. Peddicord, who Is in this coun try representing the allies in secur lng horses for the war. Anyone who has horses to sell will do well to have them In Heppner on the date set forth in their ad, and these gentlemen will be on hand and will pay good prices for good horses or mules. Everyone In the country knows Zoe Houser and he can be depended upon to do just what he says he will do.

Am ong all the exhibits at the great ex position now being held here none is of greater Importance to the country than the national conference on child labor which opens here today. The conference will be principally concerned with the national aspects of child labor. The defeat of the Palmer-Owen bill last winter by the vote of Senator Overman of North Carolina after the house of represen tatlves had passed it by an over' whelming vote will be followed up by a still more vigorous campaign In the next congress. Dr. Felix Adler, chairman of the National Child Labor Committee, Mrs. Florence Kelley, gen eral secretary of the National Con sumers' League, Senator Robert L. Owen and Francis J, Heney, all in terested in the national regulation of child labor, will be among the speak ers tn San Francisco and will help to perfect the plans for the coming campaign. Many prominent Californlans have been active in making the arrange menu to bring the child labor confer ence west of the Mississippi for the first time in th history of the Na tional Child Labor Committee anJ will take part in the session devoted to the consideration of child labor in the west when a report of conditions actually existing in the west will be presented by one of the National Child Labor Committee's Investigators who is making a study of them. Oth ers active In educational work will lead the discussion on the kind of ed ucation that must supplement chlltf labor legislation. 7EARS of refinement have developed the Franklin into a consis tency good car. The first Franklin ever built was founded on several distinctive features, which have been merely developed and refined instead of changing from one idea to another each year from one rash GUESS to another. The distinctive features of the first Franklin were: Light Weight, Flexible Construction, Direct Air Cooled Motor, Laminated Wood Sills, Full Elliptic Springs, Without Torque or Radius Rods, Valve-in-head, 4 cylinder and 6 cylinder motor. Many of the features which other cars are now claiming to have originated were Franklin features right from the start. The Franklin never built less than a 4 cylinder motor. Theirs was the first 4 cylinder motor built in America. Their first motor was of the VALVE-IN-HEAD type. Franklin was first, and always foremost in light weight construction. Genuine light weight allumi num bodies were used as early as 1905, and they haven't warped, cracked nor rusted out yet. . Franklin was first to use positive (pump feed) lubrication now universally adopted. First IN THE WORLD to use throttle control First to use full elliptic springs without reach rods. First to use flexible wood frames. FRANKLIN HAS NO YEARLY MODELS. ) BUY A CAR THAT WILL NOT BE OUT OF DATE BEFORE YOU WEAR THE NEW OFF. Pendleton Auto Co.

The plants rare - then practically above the ground and their leaves are spread so that they will receive a liberal supply of the spray. The plants are much more susceptible to the solution at that time than they are at any later date. If the spray is applied when the plants are too far along there Is danger of simply killing the leaves and forcing the plants to ripen ear lier. Some of the seed which is form ed In that way will grow. The spray ing should be done on a bright, warm day that promises warm weather. No attempt should be made to spray while there la dew on the plants or while It Is raining for the moisture will neutralize the Iron sulphate so lution. It was found at Wisconsin univer sity that the spray would kill many other of the common weeds at the same time It was killing the mustard and that it did not do any harm to the grains or clovers. The agricultur al department of the Pendleton high school has experimented with the spray and found that It will kill Rus sian thistle and the tar weed as well as many of the other weeds of this lo cality. Mr. Moor of Wisconsin says that the iron sulphate spray will kill out the mustard for one year but that after the ground has become con taminated with the mustard seed there are many of them that will re main in the ground and do not come up until they are brought to the sur face. Hence, even with the iron sul phate spray It Is necessary to spray the grain fields each year so as to kill mustard which has been brought to the surface and not germinated.

(Continued from Page I.) Applying the solution The sprayer which has been found most success ful and which Is most commonly used has a cylindrical copper reservoir or tank mounted on wheels having a gear attachment which operates a pump when the machine la moving and by air pressure forces' the solu tion Into a spray pipe which Is pro vided with nozzles that send It forth In a fine mist. There are two or three good American machines on the market now which have been improv ed and changed for applying the Iron sulphate. These machines are equip ped so that they can be drawn by one or two horses and will cover a strip 20 feet wide. They cost from S60 to 1160 and make It possible for a man to apply the Iron sulphate at a total cost of about 11.25 per acre.
