THE First National Bank OF HEPPNER CHIDE Oil, DIP ONTROLS VKK.MIX PESTS OX SWIXK. Oregon Agricultural College, Cor vallis, April 14. Crude oil dips are best for control of lir e, other vermin anil skin -diseases of swine, according to experiments conducted by the Ore gon Agricultural College Animal Hus bandry department. One part oil to two parts water Is the strength rec ommended. The infested animals should be made to dive well into the solution, swim across the dipping vat and walk out at the further end, when they will be well covered with a coat of oil strong enough to kill lice and nits but not strong enough to injifre the animal. The mixture is not emulsified. It is recommended that the animals be dipped twice anually or whenever they become infested. All animals brought onto the farm should be dip ped, the best time being a bright warm day. The vat may be of wood or galvan ized iron, wide enough to prevent wedging and deep enough to permit complete submergence of the animal. A force pump may be used to spray the animals with or the material may be applied with a brush. If these ap plications are made in the pig's sleep ing quarters they will serve to kill some lice not on the animal. It is essential that the pigs be not crowded through the vats or dipped into the solutions. The pens should be kept clean after dipping. Sheep dip is also recommended and used by the College Animal Husband ry department. Freak Chickens Are Hatched. J. H. Edwards was in the city on Friday to celebrate the anniversary of his birth; that event had occurred the day previous but Mr. Edwards was otherwise engaged and could not get to town. He never fails to get to town on his natal day and to re mind his friends that he has passed another mile stone in life's journey and he is always greeted with their good wishes for many returns of the day. He related to us a "chicken" story which contains a phenomena. Mr. Edwards is raising pure white chickens, his hens being White Leg horns and his rosters are of the White Rock variety. They "set" an incubator with ISO eggs from the white chickens and in due course of time they were hatched, and it transpired that out of the bunch of young chicks, 17 are black. John is puzzled to know where the black chicks came from and he thinks this is a problem for the poultry experts to wrestle with. Superb Floral Center Portland's 1915 floral center will be a paragon of beauty, and one of the most superb ever planned.

Professional flow er growers of the city will make an exhibit of the choicest roses ever as sembled out of doors in the world. PLANET EARTH GROWS OLD. Through Loss of Heat and Moisture This .Mundane Sphere Will Grad ually Grow Uninhabitable. University of Oregon, Eugene, Apr. 11. This is early afternoon in the life of planet Earth. Heat will grad ually grow less and cold become greater. Moisture will slowly dis appear. Atmospheric conditions will change. When the loss of heat h'as proceed ed to a degree where all the earth has a temperature below freezing. plant life will disappear, and without plants animals must also cense Mercury and Venus, planets nearer the sun than the earth, have already reached this condition. These are among statements made In a lecture on "A Theory of World Formation," delivered by Orin F. Stafford, professor of chemistry at the State University before the Uni versity assembly.
