The output of the mill is larger than the home trade can handle, and the re mainder of its product is sold to an eastern mail order house which prices the robes in its catalogue at $8.50 each—and Marion county people are buying them! w h ic h it s t a n d s , o n e N a t i o n , i n d iv is ib le , w ith l i b e r t y a n d \ § j u s t i c e t o a ll. ^niiiiiiiiiiniiiiiiiiiiimmmiiiHiiiimitu! | HAVE A LAUGH f imimiiiiiimiimiiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiinu* Where Is The Sting, O Alcohol? To those who miss their alcoholic stimulants, Senor Ramon Jesus Dumalogon, a half breed Chinese-Filipino, from Cagayan de Oro, has a substitute which he is offer ing to the waiting western world. He wants to introduce the Buya, which is composed o f the betel nut and a little shell-lime wrapped in the leaf of the Piper betle (a species o f climbing pepper). • The Buya is chewed by the natives of the Philippines —including the Moros of Mindanao,the dog-eating Igorot- les of Luzon, the wiry little Negritos of Mindoro, as well as some o f the highly cultured natives of the archipelago. The fact that the Buya blackens the teeth may prove a slight disadvantage. But it has long been the solace, and dream creator of the South Seas. Used freely Buya makes the devotee o f booze forget the lure that lingers in the suitcase. With a chew o f Buya in his mouth, the bolo man works happily all day in the tropic sun, feeling as if he were in paradise. His troubles fade away and his soul is at rest. A second chew takes him in fancy out of the fields, into the heavens where the celestial- music of the spheres calms all the emo tions of the Orient. A third chew brings up to him the great green jungles filled with revolving green parrots which turn into multi-colored lizards that spring from star to star. From the tangled mile-long vines of the jungle, red monkeys leap and chatter in pure unadulterated joy, and the whole earth sends up yellow balls of fire. All these things—and many more—are contained in betel nut, the pepper leaf and the pinch of shell- lime.

Enumerators will be appointed after an examination this month at Salem.' Enumerators and other employes of the Census Bureau are forbidden, under heavy penalties, to give out any in formation whatever concerning the information collected, and it is desired to impress the people that the census has nothing to do with taxation. Eugene parents and teachers are raising a row about the big picture of the ex-Kaiser that adorns a page in the geography in use in the Oregon schools—one of the books recently adopted for use for the next six years. If the state text-book commission has saddled this thing on the schools, there is nothing to prevent pupils from tearing the offending page out of the book and petitioning the governor to fire the text book commission. Today is “ fire prevention” day. The governor calls upon everyone to examine their premises and to remove all fire hazards. He emphasizes the importance o f the day because of the spirit of unrest that prevades the country. Will exchange my modern 5 room Bungalow, “ St. Johns District” for small farm. Alex H.

But the depart ment of agriculture has proved that for food purposes a pound of meat from a 5 day old calf is just as good as a pound of the maturest beef, Over 5,000,000 bull calves have been killed yearly at birth because the milk they would consume to bring them to a (marketable) weight as veal was worth more than the calf would bring on the market as veal. The Federal government meat inspection regulations have been amended so as to permit the car casses of young calves to be disposed o f for food.
