ALL WORK GUARANTEED SPRAYING PRUNES FOR BROWN ROT CONTROL Loss In Oregon About $150,000 An nually; Demonstrations By O. A. C. Licensed Embalmer Lady Assistant J. L. YEAGER FUNERAL DIRECTOR Phone Residence Heppner, Oregon Corvallis, Ore., March 14. Faced by an annual loss of about $150,000 annually from brown rot of prunes, growers In different parts of Oregon hare planned demonstration spraying under the auspices of the Oregon Ag ricultural College Extension Service. A series of these demonstrations was conducted In the Roseburg district last year with very favorable results, and will be repeated this year in the Dallas district. The first spray of the series will be aplied as the young buds are push ing out and turning white, probably about March 31. N. S. Guy has pro mised to lend an outfit for the work and sprays will be appllde to the or chard of R. L. Chapman as necessary throughout the season. Growers of prunes and other stone fruits subject to brown rot are now working hard for the success of these demonstrations. W. S. Brown, who is in charge, conducted the demon strations last year, and is devoting much of his time to the study of this disease, which is growing worse and calls for careful attention.

(Portland Oregonian) The United States Navy is gainer to the extent of five strapping re cruits, just at a time when it needs them most, because C. A. Johnson, of Lexington, Or., is a naturalized ci tizen and feels he owes a patriotic duty to his adopted country. . Mr. Johnson brought his son and two husky chums from Lexington t the United States Navy recruitin? oiflce in the Dekum building, Port land to enlist in the Navy. He paid the railroad fares and their ex penses at a hotel, out of his own pocket. Just before they went up to enlist they met two other stalwart lads from their home town. Mr. Johnson .explained to them the advantages of serving in the United States Navy and the upshot of it was that they enlisted too. They all Ave went up with Mr. Johnson to see Lieutenant-Commander J. H. Blackburn, U. S. N., in charge of the Navy recruiting station in Portland. "They're all for Uncle Sam," said Mr. Johnson. "There is another son at home and you can have him if you need him. I want him to finish high school, but my country comes first with me." , All Fine Specimens Physically. Did they pass the physical exam ination? They did. Lieutenant Commander' Blackburn says he never seen better physical specimens than these five stalwart farmer boys. "Mr. Johnson is a true patriot," said, Lieutenant-Commander Black burn. "I hope to hear from more men like him, for the Navy must have recruits. In case of war, the Navy, will be the country's first line of defense. Several fine ships are out of commission for the reason that there are not enough men in the Navy to man them. The need of re cruits is imperative." Recruiting figures for the Port land station show a steady increase In the past few months. In Decem ber, 63 men were accepted here, In February there were 75 and last month the number was 82.

Sophomore Co-Eds Volunteer For First Aid and Nursing Men Equipped For Special Service. Boar&nan University of Oregon, Eugene, i March, 21. Women of the Univer sity of Oregon are not behind the men of the institution in their desire to be of service to the country in case of war. This is indicated in res ponses given by girls of the sopho more class to requests for data to be supplied the war department. Blanks for this information were distributed among the various class es this week. It had 'not been in tended to present them to the girls, but a number that happened to reach the sophomore women were signed in a way that Indicated a real willing ness to serve. Most of the igrls ex pressed a preference for work in first aid, nursing or cooking. Many of them evinced willingness to begin service at a moment's notice. The collection of the. data con cerning students and alumni avail able for service is being handled by Ben. H. Williams, representing the Intercollegiate Intelligence Bureau, which is working under the direction of the war department. Mr. Wil liams is assisted by a joint faculty and student committee, consisting of Dr. Warren D. Smith, Dr. E. C. Rob bing, Don Belding, of Grants Pass, and Lewis Beebe, of Eugene. The responses made by the men of the University indicate a considera ble variety of talent available for the Bervice to the government. A mong the special lines of work for which Oregon men would volunteer are aviation, motor driving, ambul ance work .wireless operating, medi cine, dentistry, map-reading, and a wide-range of scientific activities. Information is being collected on the age, physique, military or naval training, hobbies, athletic activities and qualifications for special of the men of the University- This infor mation has not yet been complied, but enough has been learned to indi cate a very general disposition to res pond to any call made by the govern ment. The replies appear to Indi cate a wider knowledge of Spanish than of any other foreign language, but German seems to stand next. LEGAL NOTICES. NOTICE TiTcREDiTORS.

Texas country papers are chock full of Chi- I ropractic ads and some of the city papers have stooped to accepting such space fillers. Chiropractic methods were framed up by D. D. Palmer of Davenport, la., in 1895, and the announcement was made that Palmer had discovered a method of removing the cause of di sease, (without the use of drugB or surgery, ) by a simple method of push buttons or spinal adjustments. Palmer was not looked upon with a great amount of favor at the time and his methods are still regarded as pure bunk.
