mission to. turn out in this county
within the next few days, reports Carl
Shoemaker State Garni Warden who
attended the meeting of the associa
tion here last night.
It has been the custom to turn out
these birds in the fall of the year be
fore but on account of so many of
them failing to live through the first
winter it was decided to try turning
them loose just before mating time in
the spring. The association here will
release them at such places near Al
bany as they can best look after them
and protect them from the unscrupul
I ous class whd kill them off.
The professional trapper of the San
tiam district is to begin work about
the first of April tof the extermination
of predatory animals in the Santiam
forests. W. M. Parker waa elected
secretary of the local association to

Surgeon General Calls Atten
tion To Free Care for
Disabled Men
WASHINGTON. D. C. Because
discharged, sick, or disabled soldiers
do not know the extent of Federal aid
they are entitled to, a great many of
them are buying their own artificial
limbs, paying for medical attention,
or neglecting themselves, In spite of
the fact that they can get the very
beat of treatment from the Govern
ment. Reports reaching the United States
Public health service from stations
where hospitals are In operation for
the benefit of discharged soldiers,
sailors, marines and war nurses, show
that a great number of men who serv
ed in the war and were injured have
never fully understood the provisions
of the legislation suplementing the
war risk insurance act Under the
terms of this legislation the Public
Health Service has established hos
pitals at convenient places throughout
the, United States for the free treat
ment of any member of the Military
Establishment whose disability may
be traced to service with the military,
or naval forces. These are civilian
hospitals, not under Army discipline.
The bill provides that the men are
entitled to a free medical examination
to determine the extent of their dis
ability. If found to be disabled the
War Bisk Bureau will pay them com
pensation according to the extent of
the disability, and if the case requires,
it will direct that they be admitted to
the most convenient Public Health
