PRIVACY SOUGHT
BYOIIEWlS
Privacy is the th'mg to strive for
in planting a 50 foot lot with orna
mentals, Guys A. ti4 1'eck, professor of
landscape gardening, at O. A. C. A
city lot will not permit much land
scape gardening, so if any one idea
xb to be developed, it should be pri-.
-vaey.
"Privacy is most to be desired in
city property, especially in the back
yard," Professor Peck declared. "In
stead of taking your guests into the
living room on a summer evening, how
much better would it be to take them
into an outdoor living room in the
bnckyard, away from the noise and
clatter of the street."
A terrace, a pergola, a small gar
den house, or a terace and pergola
aro possible in the back yard. Here
too, are seats and perhaps a table,
also a flower and vegetable garden
if desired.
Placing the house as near the front
property line as possible is necessary
for the backyard development. Many
real estate subdividers advertise that
the deed they give prohibits locating
the honse nearer the front than 25
feet. Half this distance would be bet
ter on a lot only 100 feet deep. This
permits only Bimple planting of
shrubs, and a lawn in front to tie
the house to the ground.
: "The" city lot should function," Pro
fessor Peck continued. "That is,
one should be able to get fuel in eas
ily, or the car in ond out without too
much backing. Leave room for a
clothes line. Walks are made as di
rect as possible, either in straight
lines or easy graceful curves. Give
as little . space as possible to the
drive. Often it is not feasible to have
a drive, and access to the garage is
by the alley."
"The place for roBes is somewhere
in the backyard by themselves. They
always look well in formal beds .with
turf walks. Eighteen roses aje a
big supply for the average ploce, ond
those who boast 50 or 00 varieties,
are planting roses to the exclusion
of mnny other desirable things."
Trees are placed in the parking, as
they require more room than a city
lot "usually affords. Of course, nny
development extending over a period
of years, Mich as a garden, presup
poses a plan fully developed beforehand.
by R. W, Morse, county agent. He
says that Grimm sowed by I. Skovobo
of Boardman a year ago was not
damaged while common alfalfa all
around it was nipped. Garnet Baratt
of Heppner reports that Grimm he
seeded two years ago is the only al
falfa left on his place. Many other
growers report similar comparisons,
according to Morse.
Grimm is the variety recommended
by the tate and county agricultural
economic conferences because as com
pared with other varieties it lives
longer, resists cold better, starts
earlier in the spring and yields more
hay per acre.
Farm Reminders
Chicks Want Free Range
Brooding chicks on clean soil and
giving them free range following the
brooding period is a wise practice,
according to II. B. Cosby, poultry
specialist for the O. A. C. extension
service. A two, three or four yard
system with the permanent brooder
will permit ranging chicks on clean
ground each year and will go far to
ward avoiding diseases that result
from soil contamination, says Cosby.
He asserts that brooding a large
number of chicks on the same ground
year after year and raising them to
laying age on the Bame ground used
for brooding is about the. surest
known method of going out of the
poultry business.

Early Plowing Helps
" Willamette valley fruit plantings
that are plowed and worked down by
the middle of April will conserve
more moisture than those left un
plowed after that date, says C. L.
Long, horticultural specialist for the
O. A. C. extension service. Shade
and protection afforded by a cover
crop does not begin to conserve as
much moisture as ivlost by the
leaves through transpiration.'

Increased clover seed production Is
warranted in Lane county and other
western Oregon districts by the
climatic, soil, crop rotation and mar
ket conditions. Such increase was
recommended by the state agricultur
al economic conference, and has been
supplemented by lime recommenda
tions in several of the county con
ferences. Both the extension service
nnd experiment station have Joined
in these recommendations and taken
active steps In carrying forward the
project. Some excellent results have
been reported.
In western Oregon and in Irrigated
districts of ' eastern and southern
Oregon result in average acre yields
of between & and 3 bushels per acre
as compared with 1 to lMi bushels
in the clover seed producing stntes oi
ths Mississinnl valley. A few north
ern sections average about 2 buahels
an acre. The conference declared
that the United States annually im
ports about $2,000,000 worth of red,
white and alslke clover seed, grasses
and vetch.
Malheur, Crook and Deschutes
counties have given attention to de
velopment of clover seed growing,
and the county economic conferences
held in those counties encouraged de
velopment of the industry to the ex
tent that sufficient tonnage be made
available for car lot shipments and
to furnish a BUpply large enough to
attract buyers.
A hundred-acre field of red clover
owned by L. A. Dnugherty and II.
Baty of the Powell Butte community
in Crook county yielded 4.5 bushels
of .seed per acre last year, reports
County Agent Tucker. It was
threshed by an ordinary grain sepa
rator and would have yielded 50 per
cent more seed if a clover buller hod
been used. A bushel of this seed
took second prize at the Pacific In
tnrnationol land products show last
November.
A few years ago a little red clover
seed was produced in Malheur county
bv farmers near Adrian. About KM)
growers harvested this crop in 1024,
estimates County Agent Breitbaupt.

WASHINGTON, April 18. W1)
To save time, money and ajinoyance,
Secretary Hoover favors a simplifi
cation of the tortuous legal process
through which a merchant chip must
pass under present regulations when
she enters on American port.
These regulations bring an arriving
vessel into contact with five differ
ent departments of the government,
and innumerable bureaus. The pro
cess is described by Mr. Tloover. aB
follows:
The master of the vessel first en
counters the health authorities, rep
resenting the public health service of
the tretiaury department, who bonrd
the, Bhip at quarantine and examine
into health condition of crew and
passengers.
Customs Men There
At the same time customs officials
arrive. They also are officials of the
treasury department, but in this par
ticular instance they represent also
the commerce department. On behalf
of the treasury they have various
duties In connection with the collec
tion of customs, and receive the mani
fests and other documents from the
master. As representatives of the
department of commerce, if there are
steerage passengers on the vessel
they examine sanitary conditions and
other matters relating to the enforce
ment of the passenger acts.
The immigration officers likewise
board the ship, representing the de
partment of labor, and perform their
duties in connection with the enforce
ment of the immigration laws.
The ship then leaves quarantine
and next meets with officials of the
coast guard, who designate anchor
ago grounds, acting under delegation
from the war department, which has
this duty under the law.

tions are subject to trial by the

When the ship finally docks, a for
mal entry is mado with the collector
of customs, who supervises the .entry
and unloading of the cargo. In re
ceiving the entry, the collector acts
as an official of the department of
commerce. In supervising the un
loading, he acts for the treasury de

New Kind of Tire
May Mean Mileage
(By NEA Service)
AKRON, Ohio, AprU 18. A cheap
er, better and longer-lived tire may
result from a new method of manu
facture introduced here.
It concerns tho vulennization of
rubber under water, instead of iu live
steam.
Frank A. Sleberllng, veteran tire
man, has adopted the method, after
testing the process in his laborator
ies for a long time. The invention
Is under the name of L. A. Lauraen
of Kau Claire, Wis.
Curing the rubber undor water, It
la explained here, causes It to re
tain its natural oils in almost por
toet oondltiou. The result is said to
he longer life for the product.
Tires and tubes already built by
the Laursen method are said to af
ford increaaed mileage.
As a result ot the experiments
with this method, It is said here, mo
torists may soon see a new kind ot
tube on the market, nnd a new tire by
the end ot the year.

NEW YOHK, April 18. Bromine,
an Ingredient used in a "dope" for
motor fuel, ia going to be pumped
up out ot the sea.
For this purpoae the steamship
Ethyl hns been equipped as a com
plete chemical plant and will roam
the seas for the fluid.
Refuted as a factory for recover
ing bromine from senwater, the Kthyl,
formerly the Lake Harmlnia of the
United States Shipping Hoard, will
clear from Wilmington, Del., on what ,
is probably the strangest voyage ever
undertaken. She will call at no port
aud, roaming the ocean, will extract
her cargo from Its waters.
Chemical experts, who are mem
bers ot the American Chemical So
ciety, estimate that 1700 gallons of
soawater contain one pound of bro
mine. Hence, it Is the Ethyl's mu
aion to remove this seven one-thousandths
of one per cent ot bromine in
the seawster, with which it is plan
ned to refill the world's bromine
storehouses, emptied by the rapid de
velopment of ethyl gasoline in auto
mobile operation.
In an official announcement of the
voyage, A. M. Maxwell, Tie presi
dent of the Ethyl Qssoline Corpora
tion, owuera of the vessel, says an
entirely new process of bromine ex
traction would be employed. This pro
cess is expected to yield 100,000
pounds of bromine a month. To pro
duce this quantity, the Kthyl will .
draw 7000 gallons of seswater a min
ute.
"The success of this venture may
give an entirely new aspect to the
manufacture of bromine, which here
tofore hna been laboriously recovered
from mineral springs and from the
potash deposits ot Germany," says
Maxwell.
'Success, furthermore, may mean
equipping a fleet of bromine ships
for the recovery from1 the seas of
other valuahle constituents to en
rich mankind.
