A campaign that may well be term- i sj the "Save the Herd Movement" Urn been inaugurated in this state, ml its influence' is being recoguized .Already In a greater appreciation of the value of milk as u preventive and ,'rotective food, and by a greater ap jri;ciut.lou In the minds of the public i tor tiie part the dairyman plays In the ife oi the nation and the world ut targe. The campaign Is under tin) joint auspices of the United States food Administration, the Oregon Ag ricultural College, the Slate Board of Health, the State Dairy and Pood i ommisslon and the Oregon Dairy 'ouncll. .A well known authority on diets- !c; .said recently "Ws must gll help i i Ins 'Save The Herd' movement by jslng plenty of milk, fresh and eva- Hnrntedi and plenty of the very best uutfer. It Is not generally known hat milk, even at the gdVgttOSd cod, Ol ft3 U one of the chenpent fooil" th hoimnwtfo can provide for the family Literal use of milk and dairy pro I it in Is a practical economy not only because of their high food "alue. but iici-inisi' of their peculiar proportion to which are undlnputalty essential to the growth and health of children, and to the well-being of the adult as well. Profeaaor K. V. McCoIlutn, of John Hopkins Unlveralty. who re cently spoke In Portland to a large gathering of professional and bui ness men and women, including dairy men, home economic teachers, doc tors, health specialists, nurses, heads of hospltalH, teachers, mother and others Interested In dietetic i, croated a profound Impression when ho -nude several statements regarding the fgMMJf oi' the present jliuutinn. He pointed nit how disease ;':( hold of the children in districts where milk It used sparingly or scarcely at all. He told of hundreds of children aTlict. mI with rickets, with pellegra, a most distressing disease this ihh-iuhij the little one; have not a Itttftete.n1 sup - ply of milk, lie gave dates, planes, tacts, and alter telling oi muny OOMS under his observation, experiments, and results of research, he called up on tho people of Oregon In stand by the dairies which are now struKttll'ig under burdensome var conditions, to use the dairy products, and to MtTfl this generation from disastrous re sults that surely will coino If the herds are to be sacrificed. Dr. McCollum urged the dairymen to keep their herds In tact and told the consumers their plain duty is to stand by this essential lndutry. MILK A RKAI, FOOD. Milk, being a liquid, is sometimes classed with water, tea, and OOf f 00, 1 glmpl as a beverage, liy those who do not understand its value as food.; This is u great mistake, if all the. Watt! were to be driven off from u iii:irt in' tee or coffee, almost nothing would DO left, and the lit I It- Ihttt re- meined would have little or no value OS food. If. on the oilier hand, the wnter were driven off from a quart ill whole milk thire would be left I tbOUl half a cupful of the very best food substances. Including butter fttt. a kind of sugar not so sweet as I granulated auger end known as "mi,k UKiir." and also materials which are needed to make muscles, I nones, leeiu, anil outer pans oi me bodv. All these valuable food BUb- Stances ore ordinarily either dissolv ed or flouting In the water of milk. o TAXING THE WOHKMAVS TOOLS.

The load was 000 bushels, and the procession was traveling at about liv miles an hour which leaves ttj simple problem for the student of economies to work out, if he wants soms figures OH the time saved by a tractor. Tax the tfaotor; but be consistent, and tux also the machinist's chisel, tlie barber's razor, and the miner's pick. T( M MUCH WAK The newsDaner reader sometimes asks himself, and he sometimes asks ! the newspaper editor only less po-j litely if it isn't possible to print something that isn't all about the war. The war Is to blame; not the ed itor. In "Alice in Wonderland" runs the verse: "The time has come," the Walrus said, "To talk of many things; oi shoes, and ships, and sealing-wax, And cabbages and kings." This was written a generation or two before the war, and the collected Ubjeotl were intended to bo miscel IsnsOUS and non-controversial. Try to pick one of them thut Isn't a war-topic now. Bhoes ami ships remind us sadly of war prices; Heal ing wax recalls a certain Hague inaty now a scrap of paper; while cabbages and kings have dug them selves in on the front page. Don't blame the poor editor. The mailed fist hits you no harder than It hits him. Jog Buchanan wus In town Thursday. HVN TRAtTORH Many women will be called on to run farm tractors next year, thinks Dean A. U. Cordley, because many more tractors will be owned by Oreg on farmers while men able to run them will have been taken id the draft. VVoraen may qualify for farm tractor operation by taking the nine month course in farm mechanics at the Agricultural College, beginning Sept. II.

This Is highly important I in planning for the liberty wheat harvest of i9i'J. for which the, Do l purtment of Agriculture Is reenm- mendlng thut American farmers sow ,at least 40.00,000 acres to winter wheat this fall.

At least S tons per aire of this treated manure should be applied at least ii in e in four reere. rotted, When barnyard or oilier manure Is not available and plant refuse, such as straw and stubbie.
