S O U T H E R N O REG O N N E W S R E V IE W MIRROR O f Your MIND ■ ■ Shows Im m aturity Summer Techniques IS I T that Do you “ o w n ” y o ur children? Answer: Not in the a b s o l u t e sense in which parents once did. For instance, the law, which once allowed a father to kill his child if he wished to, now forbids your treating a child with excessive cruelty, working him beyond his strength, or letting him grow up without an education. It may even characteristic of fishermen habits and techniques to which thev have been accutomed in taking fish are most difficult to abandon. This fact often keeps many an otherwise good angler out of the "full creel" classification and gives to his efforts a mediocrity that is discouraging. As a case in point, take the prob lems of summer fishing. During this period of the year, the good fish— that is those which are of a size sufficient to thrill the angler and create envy among his friends lie in the deeper pools during most of th_ daylight hours. It is true that they will come into the shallows to feed during the very early morning and late twilight hours, but it is of the other hours that this is written. During the hot hours of the day. ___ ito Com Borer Serious Threat to Midwest f L A ' r o ba bly the f ir s t census ever t a k e n was KEEPING HEALTHY Infected Teeth Cause Many Diseases By Dr. James W .

The general infection not only in fected teeth before trouble starts far west as Kansas and Nebraska and the Dakotas, and south to the Tennessee-Alabama line. Not only is the pest covering more ground each year. It is, in many places working more destruc tively. In Iowa, for example, the borer cost each corn farmer last year an average of 750 dollars. There is nothing to indicate that the destruction has reached a peak. In fact, unless adequate controls are adopted, the corn belt may find the worse to come. Chemical control must from now on be considered part of the regular production of the crop. Humans Susceptible To 80 Animal Diseases Animal diseases are a constant threat to the health of human be ings, two public health physicians declare in the Journal of the Ameri can Veterinary Medical association.

When traveling through brush or woods, he will never be caught push ing his rod tip ahead of him. In stead, he will carry the rod butt first, holding the line and lure in his hand, or with the hook in the ' hook ring or securely embedded in the cork handle of the rod. Time generally can be saved by taking down the equipment, especially in j the event the trail is fairly long be tween fishing spots.

There is no argument about mid-summer fishing not being comparable to that of spring and fall, but the patient, skilled ang ler, who uses his head as well as his equipment, can still take fish consistently. To do so, however, may mean that the fisherman who sneers at any thing but the most tricky in arti ficial lures, may have to abandon that idea and get down-to-earth with his angling friends who resort to worms, minnows and soft craws. * So, when fishing for game fish during the mid-summer, take some live bait along.

Naturally ripened fruits and berries have firmness that makes them easier to handle as well as sweetness which can be acquired in no other way. Plan to can only the amount that you can handle efficiently for speed is required so there is no spoilage on the way to the jar. When fruit waits around after one step for another, it will be exposed to air and will lose much of its flavor and appearance. e e e MAKING A WATER BATH THE USE OF a boiling water bath canner has been widely used and recommended for processing fruits since it gives such good re sults, This can easily be made at home if you do not already have one.
