OREGON Rcfcrenci': Hiburnia Savings Dank. Furnlah First Line of Mobile Defense for Naval Stations and Baaes Outside Of United States. The exact status of Uncle Sam's "soldier of the sea," as the Marine corps has been designated, is not alto gether clear to many people. The marines are an Independent branch of the military service of the United States, generally serving under the di rection of the secretary of the navy. They protect government property at naval stations at home and furnish the first line of the mobile defense of naval bases and naval stations beyond the limits of the United States. They guard American lives and Interests abroad and they are used as expedition ary forces and for advance base duty. The marines go with the warships, do guard duty on board and act as land ing parties ashore. It is quite possi ble that, owing to the active part the marines are taking In the present war, their status will be somewhat changed. The Marine corps was first called Into existence by the act of the con tinental congress of November 10, 1775, and served throughout the Revo lutionary war. It was disbanded nt the close of the war, but was reor ganized and permanently established July 11, 1708. It has participated In every expedition and action in which the navy has engaged and has co-op erated in campaigns with the army. Until recently the organized strcngtli of the marines was 17,400 men, but In the present emergency a large In crease has been made. An applicant for enlistment In the Marine corps must be an American citizen between twenty and thirty-five yearB of age, and must rend, write and understand English. He must be single and with out dependent relatives, and must be of good moral character and excellent health. When a recruit Is enrolled lie Is put on probation and sent to one of the many training stations. Here he must undergo nnother examination, and if found satisfactory he Is sworn Into the service. If unsatisfactory he is re turned to his home at the govern ment's expense. The marine's pay is practically clear, us his expenses are few, and his rav ings may be deposited with the pay master. Upon the deatli of any en listed man from wounds or sickness not due to his own misconduct there will be paid to the widow, children or dependent relatives previously desig nated by him an amount equal to six months' pay. Advancement In the Marine corps, especially at this time, is comparative ly rapid, since vacnncles occur con stantly In the non-commlssloned grades. Non-commlssloned officers may be promoted to the warrant rank with pay varying from $1,125 to $2,500 a year. Men nre also selected by com petitive examination for training for commissions at the Navnl academy, and nt this time special arrangements have been made to ennblo men of tho rank to receive regular commissions In proportion to their ability. Horse Driven From One of Last Strongholds I The horse has lost another trench. It has been driven from one I of its last strongholds the Yob- T emlte National park. Heretofore motorcycles have I not been admitted to the park, because the park roads have been In use by horBe-drawn ve- hides and because some of tho grades on the roads have been considered too steep and danger- J. ous for motorcycle traffic. During tho 1017 season, how ever, there was practically no t travel In the park by norse drawn vehicles. The roads hnvo been Improved until now thero 1 are none that are not sufo for travel In any kind of convey ance.

Onto Uncle Sam's Experts Endeavoring to Develop Variety That Will With stand Low Temperatures. Investigators for Uncle Sam's de- parment of agriculture are In a fair way of developing n variety of corn that will withstand frost and will grow at low temperatures. In fact, they have already achieved results along this lino, and If their efforts prove wholly successful, the outcome will be to Increase greatly the amount of this grain rulsed by extending the corn belt. The Investigators for the govern ment planted a special variety of corn In February, 1017, and found that plants which were several Inches high withstood a drop In temperature, on March 3, that frote the ground to a depth of two Inches. Of even more Importance la the fact that some of the Individual plants continued to grow during periods of low temperature when ordinary corn would huvo been at a standstill. Experimentation con tinues, however, as success cannot be considered assured as yet. PREVENT INJURY BY INSECTS Angoumois Grain Moth and Weevil Do Much Harm Each Year Prevent Loaa by Cleaning. Bach year there Is a large annual loss of stored wheat due to the work of graln-lnfestlng Insects, chiefly the angoumois grain moth and grain weevils. In the ordinary farm grain bin a great deal of Injury by these Insects can be prevented by carefully clean ing the bin before the new grain la placed In It. Sweep out all refuse grain from cracks and crevices In the floor end sides of the bin. Then spray with kerosene emulsion, using one part of the stock solution to about five parts of water. Be sure to drive the spray material Into the cracks and crevices where the Insects or their eggs might be hidden. Allow the bin to dry for a week or longer before plac ing the grain In It. Kerosene emulsion Is prepared as follows: Shave up and dissolve one half pound of common laundry soap In one gallon of boiling water. Remove this water from the Are and add two gallons of kerosene oil. Mix the whole thoroughly either with a hand pump or by pouring from pail to pail several times. When properly made the mixture Is a creamy mass from which the kerosene will not separate. This Is the stock solution, which should be diluted as previously directed. SILAGE REDUCES BEEF COST Result Given of Steer-Feeding Test Made at Missouri College of Agriculture. A Bteer-feeding test recently com pleted at tho Missouri College of Agri culture Illustrates the possibility of re ducing the cost of beef production by the extensive use of corn silage, blx- teen head of two-year-old steers fed for 130 days made an average gain In live weight of 322 pounds per head. They were fed 8.16 tons of corn Bllage, 750 pounds of alfalfn hay, and 503 poundB of cotton-seed meal and old process linseed oil meal per steer. They received no corn other than that contained in the silage. By this meth od of feeding n fairly satisfactory grade of beef can be produced, and It Is possible to fatten three steers on an acre of good corn Instead of one, which was usual under former meth ods of feeding. ATTENTION TO THE WOOD LOT Burning Over Destroys Leaves and Humus-Forming Material Cut Out Undesirable Trees. Don't let anyone persuade you to burn over the wood lot. By doing so you destroy the leaves and humue formlng material which nature In tended the trees to have. Out out only the undesirable and least-valuable trees. Keep the chest nut, hickories, oaks and white pines, und remove ull crooked and defective trees. Where several trees stand closely together, or where there are shoots from an old Btump, remove all but one or two of the best. Be very careful not to Injure the de sirable trees when removing those wanted for fuel. Study your wood lot, Its trees and their characteristics and bo guided by the knowledge and experience acquired.

Fowla Feed More Economically Than Any Other Farm Animal When Carefully Handled Little Capi tal la Required. Poultry has been called the crop that never fails. It offers one of the best ways of Increasing food produc tion on short notice. Poultry uses feed more economically probably than any other class of farm animal when It Is carefully handled. It will produce a pound of meat or eggs on four pounds of grain when protein concentrates are fed. Pullets will begin laying In from 6 to 8 months. Cockerels nre ready for market at the age of 12 to 16 weeks. There fa good money In poultry and eggs If the flock Is properly managed. Very little capital Is required and ex pensive stock and equipment are un necessary. Careful management and feeding are more Important than ex pensive equipment. Laying hens should be allowed to moult naturally. The common Idea that If hens are compelled to molt early they will quickly feather out and com mence laying early In the fall Is er roneous. An early molt Is not a sign of early fall production. Usually the late-molting hen Is the heavier pro- lr Trap Neat Telia Profits. ducer. In fact a lack of feather growth Is one of the points to consider when selecting hens for winter laying. Very often show birds nre forced Into summer molt by a restriction of feed. Tills Is done so that the birds may be In full feather once more for the early show season. This should never be practiced with utility stock. It will cause production to stop and weaken the hens at a time of the year when full strength is needed. It Is unwise to change the general character of the feed. The addition of some oil carrying Ingredient, however, such as sunflower seed, will aid In the develop ment of new feathers. Chickens may be produced economi cally on city and suburban lots by utilizing the food wastes from the kitchen. Under such conditions, hens may be kept profitably for egg produc tion. On fnrmB, chickens thrive on hugs, Insects and worms, seeds, wild berrleB, weeds and grasses, and give the cheapest meat product pound for pound. The labor required by chickens Is slight, which Is an Important consider ation when man-labor 1b scarce. It can be performed by women, children, convalescents nnd elderly people. T ji The Quaiiit?

To give one an approximate Idea of the value of irrigated land In the mat ter of forage for cattle, the following figures will show what alfalfa will do on Irrigated as compared with common hay on nonlrrigated land: One acre sown to alfalfa and Irri gated will produce 10,000 pouuds of hay. One acre In inclosed pasture, BOO pounds. One acre of range averages 260 pounds. Or again : One aere of Irrigated alfalfa will feed one steer 400 days. One acre of Inclosed pasture will feed one stW SO days. One acre of range will feed one steer ten days. Or putting It In sheep, It will show : One hundred and sixty acres of Irri gated alfalfa will maintain 1,000 sheep one year. One, hundred and sixty acres of la closed pasture will maintain 80 sheep one year. One hundred and sixty acres of range will maintain 40 sheep one year. Taking No Chances.

The kidneys filter this acid tram the blood and pass it on to the bladder, where it often remains to irritate and inflame, causing a burning, scalding sensation, or setting up an irritation at the neck of the bladder, obliging you to seek relief two or three .times during the night. The sufferer is in constant dread, the water passes sometimes with a scalding sensation and is very profuse; again, there is difficulty in avoiding it. Bladder weakness, most folks call it, because they can't control urina tion. While it is extremely annoying and sometimes very painful, this Is really one of the most simple ailments to overcome. Get about four ounces of Jad Salts from your pharmacist and take a tablespoonful In a glass of water before breakfast, continue this for two or three days. This will neu tralize the acids In the urine so it no longer is a source of Irritation to the bladder and urinary organs which then act normally again. Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless, and Is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with llthla, and is used by thousands of folks who are subject to urinary disorders caus ed by uric acid irritation. Jad Salts is splendid for kidneys and causes no bad effects whatever. Here you have a pleasant, efferves cent llthla-water drink, which quickly relieves bladder trouble. Tommy Explains. A couple of Charleston kiddies were celebrating Bunker Hill day by ex ploding a few torpedoes. Said Nellie: "I don't see how the Germans can blow up a big ship with one of these things."
