FRIDAY, FEBRUARY S, 191S
BROUGHT HOME.
The sinking -of the Tuscanla brings
us to a more grim realization of the
war. Last week we saw what the
war could do to a man in the trenches
when Major Edwards came before us
with both his arms gone. At the same
lime captain uook, we know, was
struggling for the air that the hid
eous German gas had made It hard
to get. Now we have another form
of German rightfulness brought
home and more than one Bend family
is waiting in suspense for the message
which will tell them how their sons
and brothers, known to be on the
ehlp, came through the disaster.
We all hope they are safe.

Right In The Thick Of The Fight Is When A Sammie Most Appreciates
That Little Smoke-Send Him A Bulletin Tobacco Kil-25 cents.
Why not take up a small collection
and have our streets dragged with a
split log every now and then? It
would not cost much and it ought to
produce good results, especially if
started now while the ground is wet.
One team covering the ground twice
a week should keep the streets in
shape with very little expense.
Here's a new name for our friends
in Portland. Let's call them highwaymen.
Central Oregon Owned Cow
Produces Most Butter Fat
The report of the First Central
Oregon Cow Testing association Just
received by the county agent shows
that for the second time a Central
Oregon cow heads the list of highest
bjutter fat producers in the state and
perhaps In the northwest.
The report of Ray K. Potter, of
ficial tester, shows that the registered
Holstein, Pearl, owned by Henry Mc
Call, of Prineville, during the period
of 30 days ending January 16, pro
duced 2480 pounds of milk which
yielded 96.7 pounds of butter fat.
The merit of the dairy animal in Cen
tral Oregon is fast becoming known
throughout the northwestern states
and many inquiries- concerning this
country as a dairy section are re
ceived by the county agricultural
SAY'GOODBY TO DOUGHNUT, agent
The accomplishment of the McCall
Boaka Up Fat Which Can B Put to
Better Use, la Judgment
of Hoover. . -
The doughnut is doomed, says the
Indianapolis News. Recent intima
tions of disapproval by the food ad
ministration of this matutinal confec
tion might have been regarded as a
spur to conservation and a threat that
would not be carried out unless as a
last resort Bakers are prohibited In
making bread or rolls from adding
sugar or fats to the dough during the
baking or afterward. Some difference
of opinion as to what are rolls has
given the doughnut a respite, but it Is
to be shortlived, according to the state
food administrator, who brings this
Significant news from Washington:
This ruling gives sweet dough goods
a temporary lease of life only. Mr.
Hoover has a special grudge against
doughnuts. They soak up fat which
we do not Deed and our allies are suf
fering for. So doughnuts and frying
pan foods will shortly be taboo and
i we must not eat or make tbem until
i the war is over.
Thus is the fate of the doughnut
sealed. Mr. Hoover Is known as a de
termined man who cannot be moved
from a course which he thinks will
serve the interests of his country. The
statement, however, that the food ad
ministrator has a grudge against the
doughnut will pnin many who have
peculiarly strong fondness for it as an
accompaniment of the morning meal,
though Mr. Hoover's animus may
arise from motives of patriotism, not
prejudice.
If the government says the dough
nut must go out of our lives, then go
It must But there will be some natu
ral regret at parting with an old and
fried friend. The doughnut, like pie,
has become a part of our common life.
Many will find breakfast without sink
ers an incomplete and unsatisfying re
past But perhaps the abstinence will
bring better digestion and more equa
ble tempers.
Holstein In producing nearly 100
pounds of butter fat in a month is
all the more remarkable whan it is
considered that the average of all the
200 cows on test in the association is
about 25 pounds of butter fat per
cow per month. The averago cost of
feed per cow during the month of De
cember was J9.30. Twenty of the
cows of the Oregon Cow Testing as
sociation produced over 40 pounds of
fat. The Honor Herd for the month
was again that owned by Bert Tor
kelson, of Bend. His five Jerseys
averaged S54 pounds of milk and
39.5 pounds of butter fat apiece. Sov
en of the separators of the association
members were tested by Mr. Potter
during the month. Six proved to be
doing good work while one proved to
be a cream thief.
The benefits derived from being a
meaner of the Cow Testing associa
tion is becoming so apparent that
there is little excuse tor anyone milk
ing cows and not belonging. Appli
cations for membership can be sent
to E. C. Park, secretary of the associ
ation, Redmond, Ore., Ray K. Potter,
official tester, Redmond, or the coun
ty agricultural agent.
WANTED SAME KIND OF BOND
Colored Man Was Satisfied That He
Could Afford It, If the Other
Fellow Could.
In many Instances prisoners, against
whom there is little evidence, or who
nre thought to be honorable enough to
return for trial if they are permitted
to go to their homes If released with
out bond, are permitted to go on their
own recognizance. In political ver
nacular they go on their "O. R."
ri short time ago several colored men
were arrested charged with assault
and battery. All had engaged in a
free-for-all fight and two of the men
hud received several knife wounds.
One man, however, told the judge that
he arrived on the scene, Just as the
police curoe, to see what the excite
ment was about and, being mistaken
for one of the fighters, was taken to
police headquarters with the other
.men.
Abolition of Titles.
, One of the recent news Items from
Tetrograd Is that "all class titles, priv
ileges and distinctions" have been
abolished, so that It may be surmised
that conditions in Russia are the same
as those wittily described in the old
.French story. M. de Saint Cyr
having applied for a passport. In the
idsys of the French Revolution, is
asked his name.
"What Is your namer
"M. de Saint Cyr."
i "There are no more Monsleurs."
"Very well ; De Snlnt Cyr."
1 "There Rre no more De's."
; "Good. Snlnt Cyr, then."
; "There are no longer any Saints."
' "Then I am simply Cyr."
"No, for there are no sires; kings
ere abolished."

When the case was called In police
court. It was continued for a few
days, and after bearing the story the
Judge told this man thut he would let
him out on his "O. R.," after he had
promised to return on the day of the
trial.
One of the other prisoners was so
impressed with the easy iimnni-r in
which his friend got out of Jull thut
he asked for un opportunity to speuk,
und then suld: "Jedge, yer honor, 1
sure would like to get out. I don't
know what kind of a bond this 'O. It.'
is, but I know this, that If thut boy
can afford it, so cun I, and I am will
ing to put one up."
The speaker was one of tho prime
movers in the fight, and the Judge de
cided that his bond would he STjOO,
which wus more than he could pro
cure, so he remained In Jull. ludlun-

Mixture of Alcohol and Bcniol Has
Boon Found to Bo a Satisfac
tory Subatltuto.
The high cost of gasoline Is Ix-coin-Iiik
such n problem that govcrnmcntM
ami noUmiIIkis all over the world have
uttt'iiiptfd to llnil n substitute. In (lor
ninny, where gasoline Is almost iiinili
lalniiblo, it In uimIithIooiI thut u new
mixture of alcohol nnil heiitol tins
proved satisfactory. A writer In tho
Sclentlllc American gives the following
table us an Indication of lliu results
achieved :
With one part benxol mid one part
alcohol a touring car equipped with an
ordinary carburetor iiiiulu 4)1 miles un
hour and ran n distance of 4, (HI mites
upon one pint of the fuel. With one
part lining mid two parts alcohol the
speed was 41 miles ami the dlstiineo
covered 4.47 miles. This shaded down
to :U miles un hour and H.T2 miles on
a mixture of one part boiuol and five
parts alcohol,
Tho same oar, operated with puro
benr.ol, acquired n speed of 41! miles an
hour mid rui, a distance of It.Tli upon
one pint of fuel. With pure pmollno
It made 44 miles an hour, running 8.(10
miles.
Alcohol Is easily obtainable, and ben
zol In large quantities Is now being dis
tilled In both the United States it nil
l.ermnny from coal tnr. So the mix
ture, as worked out by the (iermans,
can be had cheaper tlian gasoline, and
the results are almost as good. In the
case of Germany, the discovery has
been a boon of Inestimable value.

PROLIFIC CAUSE OF CANCER
Prominent 8urgoon Points Out Danger

rr. William J. Mayo of Rochester,
Minn- now major In the United States
army, says that 30 per cent of all can
cers of civilized man are In the stom

among primitive men nnd animals. He
believes that many such cancers nre
caused by chronic ulceration of tho
stomach.

Cavlte Flashes Time Over Pacific
Since October 1 the radio station at
Cavlte, co-operating with the I'lilllp
plne bureau of posts und the Manila
observatory, has been sending out
tlma signals of the 120th meridian
east of Greenwich at 11a. m. und 10
p. m. every day, says Science.
For the purpose of sending time Big-
nnls, tho transmitting clock of the
Manila observatory Is connecti-d with
the Cavlte wireless station through
the bureau of posts. Manila observa
tory time signals begin at 10 a. m.
and 0:55 p. m standard time of the
120th meridian enst of Greenwich, nnd
continue for five minutes. During this I
Interval every tick of the clock is
transmitted, except tho 2Sth, 20th,
64th, Kith, noth, 07th, GSth und DOth
of each minute.
The situation of Manila In the Pa
cific makes this service of the great
est Importance to the mercantile und
naval fleets that ply upon thut ocean.
Showing Him Up.
"We must fight on till the Oermnns
see how absurd their aspirations are,"
said James W. Gerurd In New York
the other day.
"Yes, we must show up the domi
neering German militarists thorough
ly. We must net like the professor
who visited a loan shark to borrow
$100.
" 'You want $100 for one yenr?' tho
loan shark said. 'Weil, sir, here you
are. My terms are 5 per cent a
month. That leaves Just $10 coming
to you. Hero you ure four crisp ten
spots.'
"But the professor mildly took out
his own pnekcthrmk aud extracted a
couple of bills from it.
"'You're mlstnken, sir ho an Id.. 1
wunt the money for two years, not
one. How much, then, is there com
ing to you?' "
How Patriot Soldiers Suffered.
In all the camp sites of the Revolu
tion a surprising quantity of broken
black bottles are found, Indicating thnt
the allowance of liquor must have
been liberal. The elaborate prepara
tions made today to protect the sol
diers against the cold contrast oddly
with the equipment of the men nt Val
ley Forge. One of the surgeons who
served at Valley Forge has left the
following description of one of the
Continental soldiers who was brought
In to a camp hospital : i
"Ills bare feet were seen through
his worn shoes Ills. legs nearly nuked
from tho tattered remains' of an only
pair of stockings his breeches not
sufficient to cover his nakedness his
shirt hanging In strings his hair di
sheveled his face meager his whole
appearance pictures a person forsaken
aud discouraged."
