"As the lava will continue to rise until March 11, we are in tor some very wonderful displays, and It Is 45 years since we have had such In tense activity at the crater.

GIVE DAIRY BARN ATTENTION Good Ventilation and Drainage Should Be Provided Good Water Supply Is Necessary. The dairy barn should have plontj of ventllutlon and a well drulned con crete floor. Keeping the bum cleiui necessitates a good supply of wuter with pressure. The stanchion method f tying the cows aids greutly In com fort mid clennllnesa. Many dairy burns nowuduys have an nutomutlc de vice for watering the cows. The uxuul method Is by a water cup which Is filled automatically, and which . Is placed between the cows. A lid on the cup keeps the wuter from gcttlug dirty and yio cows soon get used to raising It. This keeps ou huud a large supply of clean water which re mains at practically the same temperature.

The telegram was sent out to numer ous organizations and Individuals In the state and was In response to one recelved'at this office on February 20 stating that "House had recon sidered our amendment and instruct ed conference committee to cut out same. Chamberlain is the key note. Bring all possible influence to bear from Portland. If senate can be made to sit tight for Henderson amendment we will win.' "The telegram which I sent to Mr. Bramwell reads as follows: "Just Informed house has directed conference committee to ellm'nate Henderson amendment which kilis Chamberlain-Dent bill for relief oi chrome producers.

Advise you sending as many night letters as possible to Chamber lain and Sinnot urging retention ot Henderson amendment and Its final adoption by congress. Obtain all Individual action by night letter promptly and we will win.' "If you will compare the wording of my telegram' with that of the quo tation In the 'Grants Pass Courier you will see a considerable differ ence.
