The wise apple grower has his spray out fit ready now to give his trees a dose of Bordeaux to knock out j&nthimN nose as soon as the pickers leave. Corvallis Ten acres land yield 51 bushels the acre. of irrigated of Wheat to Washington One of the most in teresting exhibits of the thousands in the world war collection now be ing gathered at "the National mu seum is the "Order of Battle" map used, by General Pershing in direct ing the movements of the American forces in , France. The wall map, eight by ten feet in size, together with the walls, floor and furniture of the room in which it hung at American headquarters at Chau mont, was transferred to the museum by the war department at the re quest of the general. The map was brought to Wash ington and installed in the museum by the sergeant and three enlisted men of the headquarters staff who kept it corrected and guarded it throughout the war. At Chaumont, the map, when not in use, was con cealed by a sliding section of wall which is installed in the same manner in the museum. The map shows in a vivid fashion the exact situation at the hour the armstice was signed with reference to the strength and location of all di visions, both enemy and allied, n the western front, the correct battle tie line, the names and location of commanding officers and locations of headquarters and army boundar ies. There also is a considerable amount of detailed information re-. garumg me American divsions, as for instance, the percentage of fresh and tired troops and the -length of time the various units had been in the line or in reserve. The war collecton has already' as sumed such proportions as to make necessary some new arrangement for housing it. Many of the exhibits are now croweded into the Mound floor of the new National museum building while others are in the old building and a few of the artillery pieces are in the open air awaitinsr the construction of suitable shelter. William De C. Ravenel. the director of the museum, says consTess will probably be asked at the next ses sion to provide a building for the collection which is of great historical value. The airplane exhibit included all types of American and French n!n used extensively in combat, pursuit and bombing work abroad "and sev eral specimens of captured enemy machines. There are also on ' exhi- union many types oi airplane mo tors. In addition to the world war aviation section the museum contains ih original Lanirley and Wright models. The collection of American array medical equipment, furnished by the war Hnnartment. is practically com nlete and includes the various types of oneratlni? and X-ray equipment used in base hospitals and field and advanced base stations, a large vari ety of surgical instruments, ambu lancet and military dental equip- One entire section of the collection is devoted to exhibits showing tne inception and development of the gas mask Other exhibits include the sixtv-inch searchlights used in the field, the field artillery, machine n unA riflps of the uniform, field " equipment and medals of general of ficers, subordinate officers and pri vates of all the allied countries and Germany and Austria.

This dread disease has made a whole volume of history, for it has left the prints of its poison feet on the hu man body through a known period of not less than fifteen centuries. Until about 150 years ago there was no known offensive weapon with which to combat the plague, which then was and still is known as the most contagious and the most dread of all communicable dis eases. The only escape from it, be fore the days of vaccination, was flight or segregation. On its first recorded entry into Europe it swept off nearly one-third of the entire population. When brought to America by the Span iards, early in the sixteenth century, it killed off 3,000,000 people in Mex- ico, and swiftly swept with deadly effect over all of North America. In 1717 it destroyed one-fourth of the population of Iceland, and in 1733 al most depopulated Greenland. Its ravages among the North American Indians and other dark- skinned natives of the Western world were frightful. In some cases local tribes were practically wiped out by it. During the bettlpmonfc nf ica more Indians died of smallDox than by the guns of the white settlers. Our pre-Revolutionarv anrest.m-9 lived in continuous dread of the dis ease. so large family expected to escape unscathed. It was almost cer tain that one or more of the house hold would die of this disease before reaching maturity. The general mortality among smallpox patients in those davs was more than one half, and not to ex ceed ten per cent of thosp Wnmim f have been exposed were found to be immune. In some sprtinna rin; ' virulent epidemics, ninetv rPr nnt of those stricken died. So deadly was its work that it affected the nnYe nf ntgro slaves. The slave that could show pock marks on his face would often sell for twice the price he would bring without this certificate of health. Smallpox was almost epidemic in the American army during .the Rev olution. Our invasion of Canada was more than once stopped by it. Small pox prevailed in practically all the camps. It killed more r,.nt,-;nt ai. mers than died by British bullets. 1 Just at that time the first tps I were being taken in the discovery of j vaccination, and, though much fatal ! blundering was done by vaccinators, i Washington, himself a pock-marked I man, succeeded in putting an end to I the plague in his army, then in can tonment at Morristown IWhtc h I vaccinating every soldier. At ' the bdme time the American army at Ti conderoga was dying by companies by reason of the plague. I- Compare this army health record with our army today, or with that - -ny nation of the world. During the recent world war millions of men huddled together in burrows along vnW? , ' yet SmallPx typhoid fever were practically un known. The reason for this is known to any one who wants n , jt,, . uu niyw, anil that is that every soldier was com pelled to be vaccinated. Who would risk a return to the smallpox conditions that prevailed the world over before the discovery of vaccination ?-Telegram. Samuel D.
