( W ft ( 4 THE CAPITAL JOURNAL, SALEM, OREGON BULLETIN GIVES SUGGESTIONS IN CARE OF INFANT Long before the baby's arrival the mother should be Impressed with the imnnrtance of breast feeding. Statistics show that the breast-fed baby Is, In general, far more uiceiy to live through the first critical year than is the bottle-fed baby. Every mother's mind should be fully made up that she will nurse her baby unless the doctor himself finds some Insuperable reason to the con trary. The best and most experienc ed doctors believe that almost all mothea can nurse their hjbies. at least for a time. If the proper effort is made and they rarely advise art ificial feeding except for grave med ical reasons. Breast feeding Is much safer for the baby; it is much less trouble for the mother and more economical, says a bulletin by the state board of health. Aithounh breast feeding Is Impor tant for the baby at all seasons of the year, every mother win realize at once that it is doubly so in sum mer. Many of the characteristics of the summer season heat, flies, dust etc tend to make artificial feeding a nightmare for the conscientious mother. Young babies, especially during the warm weather, are particularly susceptible to digestive upsets and to diarrheal diseases. It is much easier to prevent these than to cure them. Clean cow's milk la the next best substitute for mother's milk. It should be boiled for two or three minutes, then cooled before feed ing it to the baby. When cow's milk of good quality can not be obtained unsweetened or evaporated condensed milk diluted with water makes a satisfactory sub stitute. The sweetened condensed milk Is not recommended. Babies fed on it exclusively are fat, often look well, but have no resistance to dis ease. Babies should be carefully pro tected from contact with other chil dren and older persons in the fam ily who are suffering with diarrhea. House flies frequently carry the germs that cause diarrheal diseases, from out-houses, to the baby's food or to the baby's hands, face and bady. Houses should be screened in the summer and flies should be kept away from the baby, its food and clothing. The baby and young child should be dressed according to the temperature and not accord ing to the season. Babies should rarely bo fed more often than every three hours. There is leas risk, esp ecially In hot weather. If they are fed at four-hour Intervals that It, five or at most six times In the twenty-four hours. Cooled boiled water should be offered to the baby between feedings in hot weather. The baby should have a room to himself. It should be clean, well ventilated and free from unnecess ary hangings and furniture. Sun light and fresh air are indispen sable for the baby. The only safe procedure In raising babies Is to consult a well-qualified physician iut aavice. ISAM FREED TO ATTEND FUNERAL Tragedy, which for some time has been stalking the Theodore Isaak family of Woodburn, struck hard during the week-end, and Isaak, who has been in Jail, was released to attend the funeral of his wife, which win be held Tuesday. Mrs. Isaak had been suffering from tuberculosis. There was trouble in the family, and a charge of non support of the wife and their child was filed In Justics court against Isaak. He was taken to Jail. He was to appear in court Monday, but death halted the ease. The mother of Mrs. Isaak appear ed before Jrjstice of the Peace Hay den Monday. She was to be a wit ness. She Informed the court that her daughter had died Sunday night and that she didn't want to appear in court lust now. Isaak's request that he be freed to attend the funeral was granted. GRAIN INSPECTION RATE REDUCED A reduction of $1 a carload In the cost of grain Inspection by the federal government, was announced nere Monday by Ma-: Oehlhar, di rector of agriculture. Grain la in spected at Portland, and the re duction of from S3 .50 to $2.50 a car- load will mean a saving to the state of about 11,000 a year, it was an nounced. Warnings Enough in Labor Complaints Not once during the last biennium did the state bureau of labor re sort to prosecution to settle em ployment complaints The most. common cause for com plaint was from restaurant and housekeepers employing women In excess of 48 hours a week. "A representative of our bureau investigated each complaint, told the offenders they must comply with the law in the future, or they would be prosecuted," State Labor Commissioner C. H. Oram said. Not once In two years, did w have to resort to prosecution.'' FALSE ALARM Hollywood. Cal. (tPr-Oreta Garbo, motion picture star, Monday con tradicted a published report In Sweden that she was proceeding to Europe to marry a Swedish mer chant named Andersson.

(UV Poison filled capsules which were pushed into the meat of sandwiches at a family reunion picnic were blamed Mon day for the mysterious deaths of two wealthy young girls and the critical Illness of two men and a youth. The girls who death struck down just as the annual reunion was starting were Virginia Simmons, 14, and her sister, Alice Jean, 10. Others who ate parts of sand wiches before a capsule dropped from one and the poison was dis covered were the girls' father, John Simmons, 48, a ".aalthy farmer; Lester carr, 18, and Horace Jack son, 50. All became critically 111. The Simmons family drove here irom tnetr large farm near Green field, 65 miles away to attend the reunion with about 35 others at Me morial park. Mrs. Simmons pre pared the family picnic basket be fore leaving home. About an hour after the family arrived It was decided to eat. Mean while the Simmons car, with the basket of food inside, had stood un noticed. No one was seen to enter or leave rt. Strychnine caused the aeains. CHAMBER TO BACK MOVE TO SALEM The resolution adopted by the state highway commission recently to hold Its meeting In Salem In stead of In Portland will be taken up by the directors of the Salem Chamber of Commerce at a meet ing Monday night and the prob ability is that it wlU go solidly be hind the resolution. This will be done, it is predicted on the strength oi figures to be submitted by Sena- tor Charles K. Spaulding who, as a member of the state highway commission, was Instrumental - In getting the resolution through the commission. The Portland Chamber of Com merce and the Portland East Side chamber of commerce have both protested the proposed change in meeting place, and are leaving nothing undone In an effort to cause the commission to continue its meetings in that city. Portland Interests also have pro tested against the removal of the dairy and food offices to Salem when they become merged as part oi me new state department of agriculture, and rt is probable that the Salem chamber of commerce directors will Monday night take anion in support of that move of tne department. WOODBURN CHIEF ARRESTS CONSTABLE Woodburn Quite a sensation was created here Saturday night when Louis Ruzlcka, Woodburn's new chief of police, consistent with his promise to enforce the law regard less ol where 'It might strike, ar rested and jailed Constable W. C. Miller on a charge of being drunk ana atsorueny. Ruzlcka, who Is a former mem ber of the Royal Canadian Mount- ed police, was in a pool hall when Miller came In. As the story goes Miner caned Ruzlcka a foreigner. Ruzlcka called Deputy Police John Mulr and they took Miller to the city jail where he remained until about 2:30 o'clock Sunday morn ing. At that hour he was released on his own recognizance on order of the city .recorder in the capacity of police Judge. Miller appeared Monday morning and asked for further time In which to enter a plea. He was given until Thursday morning. Ruzlcka was recently appointed chief of police to succeed Theodore Nehl who resigned. Aged Portiander Killed by Vehicle Portland. Ore.

DISEANE GROWS Communicable dbease In Oregon for week ended June 13 totalled 339, an Increase of IS cases over the preceding week. The number of measles cases took a drop, how ever. The state health report showed 47 eases of this disease, as compared to 64 for the week end ed June 0, - TOO MANY LAWS SAYS HOLM AN TO CHAMBER The old adage that the country la best governed which Is least governed served as a text for a part of the address given before the Salem chamber of commerce Monday noon by State Treasurer Ruf us C. Holman. He declared that the country has too many laws, and that there Is a tendency to compel by law certain things that should be done by the people as a matter of morals. It Is time, said Mr. Holman, t repeal some of the laws of the land. His thought relative to the evil of too many laws Holman applied to laws which, he said, guarantee to some persons a profit on their business at the expense of other persons and regardless of circum stances. There are certain legiti mate reasons, he said, why some people accumulate more than oth ers, but he declared that this does not account for the centering of the nation's wealth In a few hands or the fact that 75 per cent of the wealth of Multnomah county la in the hands of 1.3 per cent of Its people. Holman said that since becom ing a state official he had become impressed with the complications of state government, and he had a great deal to say. about the prob lems offered by the state institu tions.' The financial problems con nected with them, he though, were minor compared with some of the other problems, "We have," he said, "18 state In stitutions housing over 6000 In mates, and I don't think any one man ever will master all of their problems, because they cover the whole range of problems that con front the human family." Relative to the state institution for the feeble-minded he suggest ed that the chamber of commerce appoint a special committee to study Its 'relation to society. He suggested that some of the higher types of Inmates might be paroled with a saving of possibly 840,000 a year to the state. The solution of the problem of state wards, he said, said, did not lie In the con struction of more buildings to house them. He mentioned the state training school for boys and complaints that reach the state board about It, and declared that he often wondered how the state could get people to take charge of the various institutions. "In these remarks," he said, "I am not criticising those who have preceded us in the state offices. It is only reasonable to believe that we should do better than our pre decessors and that those who come after us should improve on our work. Holman mentioned several Items under the head of taxation where by money could be saved the state. He mentioned the advisory board appointed by htm to study the question of buying paper for state use and said the committee had in formed him that 40 per cent of the cost could be saved- He thought money could be saved by the con solidation of the state's' printing plants without curtailing efficien cy, and that all state buying should actually be in the hands of one office. He mentioned several items that came before the state board at Monday's meeting in which he claimed a saving of money. BREACH OF MEIER AND HOSS WIDENS (Continued from page I) of the board in the 10-day absence ot tne executive wnen, moss declar ed, Holman had agreed to the ne cessity of the vault, for which the legislature had appropriated 635. 000 In a bill signed by the governor. Employment of Bartholemew had. likewise, been approved by the board when the governor was pres ent. When tha architect's partial bill for services to date was presented Monday morning Governor Meier Immediately moved that he be paid lor nis services In full and dis charged, explaining In the course of the discussion that his action meant "there will be no vault built.' In explanation of his motion the executive said that to proceed with construction would be "boys' play In view of the proposed new capitol building," which he said Senator McNary had assured him was a likely project Hoes objected, asserting that there was little prospect of secur ing a new capitol building In less than 30 years and protesting that in the meanwhile all of the state's records are In danger ot destruc tion by fire. But Holman joined with the governor and the motion prevailed. Holman denied that he had ever agreed with Hoss In ordering the construction when Hoss asked him specifically If he had not so agreed In the absence of the gov ernor. Holman said that he had only agreed to receive bids on the work for consideration. The controversy, which followed closely upon Governor Meier's learning of Hoss' refusal to Issue special license numbers for the ex ecutive's private automobiles, was followed a few moments later by another clash precipitated by Meier. Purchase of a filing system for indexing the cards of automobile owners In the Ucens) bureau of the secretary's office was up for pre liminary discussion when the gov ernor suddenly Interrupted to crit icize Hoss for what he alleged to be excessive costs In the distribu tion of license plates. "It costs the state of Oregon more for Issuing license plates than any other state In the union," Governor Meier declared. "I want to state right here that you are absolutely wrong," Ross sbot back. "Well, I'm making an Investiga tion of this thing and will have a report to make to this board so you can judge If I am right wrong." "Why report H to this board it's none of the board's business," replied "I want the board and the pub lic to know about it." said Meier "Will you admit It If you are wrong?" Hoss asked. "I usually do," was the governor's retort. The executive's declaration of his Intention to pry Into the affairs of the secretary's office Is his second maneuver in that direction, his first being the public statement criticiz ing the cost of Janitor service for the state buildings and the assertion that 822,000 a biennium could be saved by contracting the work out to a Janitor service company. When analized by public accountants the offer ot the Janitor service company recommended by the governor ac tually showed that the cost of per forming the work now being done would be more than Is now being paid oy hoss. 6INMDF SUNDAY WRECKS Mrs. Stella Gabbert, 895 Hoyt street, received lacerations about the face and bodily bruises when auto mobiles driven by her brother, Theodore Rowland, and Frank P.

YOUTH TO DECIDE CHOICE OF PARENT Formal divorce aecrea handed down by Judge McMahan In the proceedings of Ransom W. NUes against Ethel Jane NUes shows that the court In this case did not set Itself up as a Solomon to de termine who should have custody of a minor son but decided it would be better to let the son make his own choosing in event the wife re marries. The custody of the child goes to the father until that time. But It was agreed between the parents and approved by the court that at any time the defendant wife re marries then the son shall say with whom he prefers to live, the mother or the father. Decree of divorce was granted on grounds of desertion. The couple were married in Columbus, Nebras ka, In September, 1916. Clough-Barrick Co. MORTUARY rhone 8151 Church al Ferry St. A. M.

The board was meeting at Portland. It was explained that the three schools at Monmouth, La Grande and Ashland are well up In the line as far as general requirements de manded from an educational or In struction standard are considered, but are lacking In equipment, build ings and In some faculty personnel demands. This shortage must be overcome. It was said, before these Institutions can be admitted to membership In tne association. At a previous meeting of tha board the presidents of the normal schools were directed to prepare uniform course of study so far aa curricula requirements of the basic subjects were concerned, and to re port on what would be required for the schools to obtain membership In the American-association. President J. 8. Landers of Mon mouth said that while that school met nine of the 13 listed require ments, It failed In the matter of dor-, mitory equipment, library building and books, and in regard to training school provisions for teacher train ing work. This lack could be met only by additional money, Landers said. President H. E. Inlow of La Grande said his school does not have sufficient teacher training facilities, the physical education plant Is not large enough, a dormitory is lacking and added books and more space for the library and laboratories are needed. It would require $10,000 for equipment of the library alone, he said, to bring the school up to the association requirements. President J. A. Churchill of Ash land said his Institution would be re quired to have an- auditorium for teacher training classes and work. a gymnasium, library and dormitory beiore it could meet the demands of standardization. This would re quire an undetermined amount of money. The board adopted, as presented by the school heads, an outline for an uniform curriculum. It was ex plained this does not change the general foundation requirements which have been observed In the past, although it meets the instruc tion of the board at a former meet ing that certain courses heretofore given at Monmouth be eliminated, MRS.
