When you feel "all out of sorts'

Hums Found
in Far South
Sea Islands
i HONOLULU, T. H. Rulus Bald to
be the most impressive evor discov
ered, the famous ones -or central
America not excepted, have recently
been located tn the Marquesas
islands, acordlng to Ralph Linton,
member of one of tho expeditionary
parties sent to the South Seas by the
Bishop MuBeum of Honolulu.
In writing to the museum here of
his discovery, Linton said that the
4 uln in question was that of a gigan
tic temple, decorated with sculptured
beads and full figures in a manner
unknown elsewhere in Polynesia but
practised by the temple builders of
Llndo-China and Central America.
The old temple is on the island of
dtiva-oa, in the Marquesas grotip, a
French possession.
The figures with which the temple
Is adorned are from 30 to 40 feet
high and are carved from great logs.
Their age is approximated at 200
years, although it is believed they are
copies of still older carvings,
The 'Bishop Museum has expedi
tions exploring in Hawaii, Tongs, the
Austral Islands and the' Marquesas,
.and their discoveries have been so)
important they will be kept in the
field for another six months or a
year, according to Dr. H. E. Gregory,
director of the museum.

E
SANTIAGO, Chile. The first farm
laborers' strike In Chile was called
recently by several hundred workers
on the 20,000-acre estate of an Eng
lish woman near here. Whljethe
Actual movement Was confined to one
farm and Involved a relatively small
.number of men, It attracted wide
spread interest and has been pointed
out as marking tbe beginning of a
new era In the existing relations be
tween the land proprietor and the
Chilean agricultural laborer.
The Immediate cause of the trou
ble, it Is said, was tbe refusal of the
laborers to continue working until
sunset during harvest, according to
.the long established custom in this
conntry. The provincial governor in
tvestlgnted the strike and announced
"there had been a current of propa
ganda passing between tbe Chilean
federation of labor and workers on
Various farms in tbe department.
The workers also demanded increased
wages, dismissal of the overseers and
phe right to organise. The latter was
granted, and the dispute finally was
settled after President Alesandri had
admonished the men to return to tbe
fields.
The "Inquilluo'l system .prevails
(on most of the large estates, which
form a characteristic feature of the
farming region of central Chile. Un
der the system, the worker is given
possession of a plot of land for pur
poses of cultivation, a house and
tights of pasturage. On the estate
where the strike took place the dally
wages were 80 centaves (about It
Lcents at normal exchange).
The South Pacific Mall, discussing
the strike, says "relations between
(the employer and employe on the
farms hitherto have been somewhat
patriarchal. The patron has been the
ultimate court of appeal, andy W
might be said, absolute master of the
liberties, if not the Uvea, of the peas
antry, who are linked to these es
tates by the 'inquilno' sysetm. On the
Ifcreat haciendas (farms) the laborers
And their families have remained for
pmany years in a virtual state of feu
dal servitude. It Is not surnrislnc.
therefore, that at the present day,
when the self-consciousness of the
(worker all over the world has awak
ened, that the Chilean peon should
seek some amelioration of his often
hard lot."
The owner of tbe estate where the
kleborers went on strike said the walk-
bout was the direct result of action of
V'subversive elements. " She declared
Mhe bad provided her employes with
Igood homes, schools and medical at
tendance.

TIPS TO SPRING GARDE.VERH
How to Handle Paris Green Id Usttlc
Against the Bugs.
Tbe first veteran to be enlisted in
the battle against the bugs Is Paris
Green, who has fought and won many
s battle against plant pests. Mr.
Green can certainly get action if han
dled In the right way snd for the
right things, says the American For
estry Association.
You are wasting time with Paris
Green on Insects that suck the Juices
from plants and foliage, such as lice,
green, black and white aphis or fly
mealy bug, red spider and scale, by
-thrusting their proboscis Into the leaf
or stem, for they are not affected by
stomach poisons. They must be de
stroyed by contact Insecticides.
Those In powder form kill by closing
tbe breathing pores, the association
points out. The best contact insecti
cides in powdef form are hellebore,
Blug shot and tobacco dust. , The best
in fluid form ere aphlne, black leaf
40, fish (whale) oil soap, nicotine
((tobacco extract), kerosene mlscible
oil and lemon oil.
' Insects that eat plants, foliage,
vegetables, fruit, flowers, etc., wheth
er bugs, beetles, worms, caterpillars
stomachic insecticide, such as arse-
nate of load, Paris Green or hellebore.
These, it applied according to direc
tions, are so diluted as to be harmless
to vegetation and to animal life. Less
poisonous stomachic and contact In
secticides are kerosene emulsion,
slug shot, etc.
' Paris Green ,is still a satisfactory
Insecticide, If Its foliage-burning
qualities are overcome with the addi
tion of a small amount of time. Ar
senate of lead is more satisfactory
material, which seems to meet most
of the requirements for an arsenical
poison that will not Injure foliage,
has good adhesive qualities, and It in
the powdered form will not deterio
rate by drying or freeilng. The pow
dered arsenate of lead is therefore
recommended over the paste form.

YOUNG EX-SERVICE
MAN ANSWERS CALL
Ashland residents were shocked
yesterday when the news went forth
that 'John Heston Jones, son of Mr.
and Mrs. G. W. Jones, was dead.
While It was known that he had been
critically ill since last Friday, hopes
,were entertained that, In spite of the
fears of the attending physician, he
would recover, and the word that this
young life was ended was received
with profound sorrow by his many
friends.
"Jack" Jones, as be was famlllarlly
known by his friends and comrades,
was taken seriously 111 Friday after
noon with what was pronounced fo
be ptomaine poisoning, and had never
regained consciousness since he was
stricken. He had very recently re
turned home from a hospital where
he had undergone an operation, and
was making hjs home with his sister,
Mrs. Walter Hash.. Up to his. last
seisure, however, he had been feeling
quite well, and hopes bad beeu en
tertained that he would regain his
health, which bad been impaired in
bis service In the army overseas.
The deceased was bom in Ashland
25 years ago, and was reared In this
city. where he attended high school,
graduating with the class of 1917.
During his high school life he was a
noted football player and also took
great Interest in all other student
activities.
In April, 1917, when the boys of
America were called to arms. Jack
Joined the old First Company, O. C.
A- snd went with It to Fort Stevens,
where he remained with that com
pany until January. 1918, at which
time the latter was disbanded, and he
was transferred into the Eighteenth
company, C. A. C, where he was
later made a corporal. -
Corporal Jones was again trans
ferred to Battery F, 9th Artillery,
C. A. C. in which organization he
left for overseas in July, 1911. by
way of England, arriving in France
September 5, where he remained In
training until November 11, 1918.
After the armistice he sailed for
home February 1, 1919, and was dis-
eharaed at Camp Lewis March
1919, with the rank of corporal.
On returning to Ashland the young
soldier made a valiant effort to take
up his lite again as he had laid It "
down before entering bis country's
services. During the past two years
he spent one year in the Oregon Ag
ricultural College, and was employed
with the Southern Pacific company
in the local baggage room and also '
in the forestry service. Army life,
however, had undermined what had
formerly been a strong constitution
In a perfect physique, and during tbu
past year Jack had undergone thrdee
serious" operations,., which had left
him In a weakened condition to be a
prey to thet-avages of disease.
"Jack Jones was the finest fellow
that ever lived," is the verdict of his
comrades In war and former school
mates. Great-hearted, generous to a
fault, steadfast In bis. friendships,
happy and blessed with the faculty
of making and keeping friends, there
Is more genuine sorrow expressed
over the death of this fine young man
than has been felt over the loss of
many others. He Is survived by his
parents, Mr. and Mrs. George W.
.Jones of Oakland, and two sisters,
Mrs. Walter Hash of Ashland and
Miss Agnes Jones of Oakland.
' Funeral services will be held to
morrow, Thursday, afternoon at 2
o'clock from the Dodge undertaking
parlors. These services will be at
