Smith is in Portland caring fo r some children while their parents are on a trip to California. Oregon's rapidly developing poul try industry has created a demand fo r fuller knowledge along poultry lines. To meet this demand the college is offering poultry short courses from February 2 to March 14. The courses aim to help those attending to meet the problems of the practical poultryman and to train the student in the methods and practices that make fo r success ful poultry keeping. Practical work on the college plant will be given. One day of each week will be devoted to visiting leading poultry farms o f the state at Canby, Junction City, Lebanon and Corvallis. It is planned to organize the short course students into a club fo r discussion o f live poultry problems. Members o f the college staff w ill also take part in these discussions. The student may hatch and brood his own chicks to take home with him in the course on incubation and brooding. Actual feeding o f a flock as well as a study o f the com mon poultry feeds and the mixing and balancing o f rations w ill be given in the course in feeds and feeding.

HIGHER FLOUR PRICES IS DUE TO GRAIN SHORTAGE Coming February 20, “ The Lost Battalion” given by the American j Legion. President of Sperry Flour Co. Quotes Government Bulletin in Support of Statement San Francisco, Feb. 2, 1925— The increased price o f flour is directly due to a genuine shortage in bread grains, according to W. H. Joyce, president o f the Sperry Flour Co., and a form er member o f the Farm Loan Board at Washington, D. C. In support o f his statement, Joyce called attention to a bulletin issued January 6, 1925, by the Depart ment o f Agriculture, which states that farmers are getting a good price fo r wheat fo r the first time in four years because o f the inevi table law o f supply and demand. The bulletin, according to Joyce, demonstrates that housewives are paying higher prices fo r flour and bakery products, not because o f profiteering on the part o f gro cers, bakers or milling firms, but because o f a real shortage o f wheat. The outstanding facts of the bulletin as quoted by Joyce are: The acreage planted to wheat in North Am erica was 10 to 12 per cent lessthan that fo r 1923. The United States’ 1924 wheat crop was 25,000,000 bushels below the five-year average, and only 70,000,000 bushels over the small crop o f 1923. Canada's export crop in 1923 to taled 375,000,000 bushels; last year it declined to 175,000,000 bushels. From July 1 to December 31, 1923, the Uuited States exported ouly 81, 000,000 bushels o f wheat, while during the same period last year 197,000,000 bushels were ex ported. “ The government’s bulletin points out that these facts show unmis takably the reasons fo r the prevail ing price o f wheat,” Joyce declared. “ It also states that the conjunction o f circumstances responsible fo r it is one that is unlikely to occur on the average more than once in many years, and therefore, does not war rant the expectation o f continued high prices in future years. > tf i Invitations have been issued fo r a dance at Log LaBarre fo r next Sat urday evening. Mrs. George Smith o f Gresham visited at the S. E. W ooster home, Friday o f last week. Miss Lydia Matson o f Portland visited friends in Estacada over the week-end. Mrs. N ettie Gaston o f the Sandy Lumber Company was a guest at the W. A. W ilcox home over the week end.end. Mr. and Mrs Ralph Wade return-" ed last Sunday evening from lone, where they had been spending their honeymoon. An electric light has been in stalled at the north end o f Main street by the city. This is proving a great aid to 'pedestrians and auto- sts who must o f necessity travel In that part o f town. Mr. and Mrs Jake Moss attended a second anniversary party at the home o f Mr. and Mrs. Fred Fritz in Lents last Sunday. Mr. Moss aud Mr. F ritz came to Oregon from Ohio about fourteen years ago. Twenty-six guests were present fo r the occasion. That the shipping o f day-old chicks across state lines is not a f fected by the quarantine and embar go regulations against the fow l plague is the assurance to Oregon poultry breeders given by the state college experiment station. The fow l pest has caused con sternation and actual loss in mid dle western states and some states further cast, says Dr. B. T. Simmsk head o f the veterinary medicine de partment, but has not appeared in any state as far west as the Rocky mountains so fa r as known. Un founded roports tend to throw a panic into some poultry growers and damage the breeders correspond ingly. Dr. L. F. Pelton, state veterina rian o f Washington, has wired Dr. Simms that the regulations made by that state do not apply to day- old chicks. The same may be said o f the California regulations, and as far as known, o f those o f Idaho and other states. Continued success in Oregon honey production is not an accident, says the experiment station. It is a combination o f good bees, good beekeeping, good equipment, and a good location. Eliminate European foulbrood in Oregon and cross bees by replacing all in ferior queens with good Italian queens.. This is one o f the big gest stepstoward success, says the experiment station.

ADDRESSES E.G.C.G.AT REGULAR MEETING Due to other attractions last Fri day night, the attendance at the Eastern Clackamas Community Club was considerably reduced in size. The meeting was called to order about 8 :30 p. m., by the president, A. G. Ames, in the high school au ditorium and the regular monthly business was taken up at that time. Mrs. II. C. Stephens, chairman o f the road sign committee, reported that the three members o f her committee had visited County Judge Cross and had outlined the plan as proposed by the Community Club fo r marking the roads in this part o f Clackamas County. The fund fo r that purpose had been exhausted and plans wore under con sideration to take care o f the neces sary markers fo r the highways and roads o f the county at a later date. The subject fo r a rest roo m fo r the city was next taken up and J. M. Moore was called upon to out line the plan as he had proposed it to some o f the members. In dis cussing this he suggested that sev eral organizations go together to secure the necessary furnishings and that a suitable building could be obtained for this purpose at a reasonable cost. In this manner these organizations could have a place where the regular business could be easily transacted and the records kept. Mr. Stephens was called and stated that such a plan might be worked out. The matter was le ft fo r a discussion at the next regular meeting. Mr. Delphine o f Barton enter tained those present with a number o f excellent violin selections. He was accompanied on the piano by Miss Corrine Trullinger. Arthur Foster, field representa tive o f the Land Settlement depart ment o f the Portland Chamber o f commerce sopke on the “ Aim o f the State Wide Development M ove ment.” Mr. Foster stated how the business men o f Multnomah county had come to the rescue o f the irrigation pro jects in Eastern Oregon. He dis cussed the advertising campaign as used in this state in the past and o f the efforts put forth to “ place the right man in the right place.” He particularly stressed the work done in the auto camps in Portland last year and told o f the plans that were to he used this season to induce tourists to “ see Oregon while pass ing through the state” , suggesting the possible side trips o f real inter est which could not be seen on a hurried trip. "T H E D A W N OF A TO M O R R O W ” “ The Dawn o f a Tom orrow,” a new George M elford production for Paramount, featuring Jacque line Logan, David Torrence and Raymond Griffith, will be Hhown at the Gem Theatre Saturday and Sun day nights, February 7 and 8. The story, by Frances Hodgson Barnett, differs from all other suc cessful plays that have been pictur- ized in that it underlines the impor tance o f one’s intellectual attitude toward life, and the effect o f things unseen and only thought. Miss Logan’s role as the London waif, Glad, who makes things come right by the strength o f her ‘ wishin’ and ‘arskin’ we regard as one o f the greatest attainments o f her phe nomenal career. There is an inner force about her acting that radiates her impersonation and makes it both strong and winning. In the scene in which she repels the ad vances o f a daring degenerate and forces him to do her will merely by ‘arskin’ and ‘arskin’ the Unknown Power she blindly believes in to com pel him, she reaches the height o f performance and grips her audience with genuine power. She has some very excellent assistnee from T o r rence and Griffith, the two other featured players, and from several members o f the supporting cast, Alma Bennett and Guy O liver in particular. A T T E N T IO N A radio program will be given at the Methodist church this Thurs day, evening at 7 :30 o ’clock fo r the benefit o f the church. An admission fee o f 25 cents and 10 cents will be charged. Messrs. Sagner and Smith have very kindly agreed to put on the demonstra tion, using two machines, an A t water Kent and a big Super H ete rodyne. It SUBSCRIBE FOR THE NEWS
