MARSHAL., IIS OREGON UUILDINO WORLD FAMINE BANISHED BY GRAIN REAPER Chicago (IP) Th danger of world-wide famine was removed 100 years ago this month. In a Virginia wheat field in July 1831, Cyrus Hall McCormlck looked back on the first strip of grain ever successfully cut with a mechanical reaper. That first clean swathe of wheat served notice on the world that the era of mechanized agricul ture had dawned. It also Indicated to the small group of scythemen who had gath ered to watch the experiment that their occupation of swinging 1 scythe and cradle soon was to be come a lost art; that the tradition al method of grain harvesting hand ed down from the ancients, would be swept aside and agricultural methods and extent of acreage rev olutionized. McCormlck patented his reaper three years later, but did not begin marketing It until 1840. A steady stream of Improvements were added from the first, making for Increased efficiency and practicability. Acreage of grain had been in creased so much by 1881 that Sec retary Stanton, head of the war de partment In President uncouvs cabinet, declared that McCormlck' Invention" was of untold yaiue to tne northern cause during the Civil war. Economist have credited the reaper with even greater service to humanity, declaring that it nas banished forever the fear of a world-wide food shortage, a fear that had existed since Biblical times. Now, far from fearing shortage of grain, the nation are troubled with grain surpluses. The surpluses are due, economists say, to the wide use oi motorized Implements. McCormlck' reaper wa capable of only eight or ten acres of grain a day. Alter mat there still remained the problem of threshing. Today huge combine used In the great grain belts of America harvest and uiresn so to 40 acres a day. ROGUE MINERS CASE CONTINUED Medford, Ore. (jR Circuit Judge H. D. Norton Monday ordered i temporary restraining order con tinued in the suit brought by the Anglo London-Paris National bank of San Francisco against Tyson Pankey and ten other placer miner operating in the Rogue river along property ownea oy tieroer, rieun hacker and a group of capitalists. The bank Is acting as trustee for Flelshhackcr and the group of Cal lfornians. The court directed that trial for determination of facts in the case be heard within a week. The court declared that "although the unstate nress has commented upon it, fishing has nothing to do with the Issue before the court. The fish question Is In no wise In volved." The Plaintiffs allege that con struction of wing dams by the placer miners alters the shore line, dam aging their property. The miners, under the navigable stream ruling, claim the right to operate. The court held the Rogue river is stream of "limited navigability," and that land owners have a ripar ian right to midstream." FUSILADE OF ROCKS FEATURE DIVORCE Allegations of rock throwing are flying about as thick and fast a the rocks In the divorce proceedings of Lizzie Timme against C. Timme.

Dr. Torrance aia he did not regard the theory as proved but that the atrange under ground tribe whose habitat he lo cated on a recent exploring expe dition to Africa some time might yield evidence in support of it. The explorer, who expressed tne belief that man may have originat ed In the southern part of the Sahara rather than In central Asia, announced he had located the home of a tribe of the negroid type 'more Aryan than anything yet discovered in the search for the earliest cradle of human life.'

There have been an average 32 short year, the company saw, since 1027, and total of 141 ln- temmcinna. Witnesses had reported seeing countless fish leap from the elec trically charged water, turn over on their backs and float downstream.
