NO SUGAR FOB. BEES 1
Sugar tor feeding beeB will be
extremely hard to get this year, due
to the Federal food control measures.
"Oregon beekeepers generally rob
their bees rather closely In the fall,"
says A. L. Lovett, entomologist of
O. A. C, "trusting to the bees to
collect from scattered sources suffi
cient honey ao wlnteh them. When
this supply falls the bee men depend
upon feeding sugar for winter stor
age or to bring the bees through in
the spring. Every effort was made
last spring to supply the extra eugar,
but food administrators are averse
to making further allowance for this
purpose. Beekeepers are urged to
allow sufficient honey for winter care
of the bees. This not only saves
sugar but Insures that the bees will
winter well and be in a condition to
reap the greatest benefit from next
year's honey flow."

Physician Ascerts That Toe Early Re
tirement of Successful Business
Men It a Mistaken Policy.
To old men who are thinking of re
tiring from active fcusiness Dr. Wil
liam J. Robinson, editor of the Medi
cal Critic nnd Guide, gives the cele
brated advice once tendered by
Punch "to young people nbout to
marry," namely, "Don't!" The coun
sel often given to those of advancing
years, even by physicians, to take
things "easier," to give up this and
give up that in short, to lead a dull,
empty, vegetable existence, is unqual
ifiedly bad, Doctor Rohluson thinks,
although, of course, there are excep
tions and special cases. He writes:
"An old man with a very high bleod
pressure i. e., high for his age
should not engage tn business which
is likely . to Ciiuse him great excite
ment nnd throw him in fits of anger;
and a man. who is showing symptoms
of senile dementia should not be In
trusted with important affairs; but,
generally speaking, there is no rea
son why a man should give up his
work or narrow the circle of his in
terests, merely because he has cele
brated the seventieth or eightieth an
niversary of his birthday. The gen
eral condition of the man, his fitness,
should be the criterion, and not his
age in years. We all know that some
people at sixty are actually older
than some are at seventy or eighty.
"The advice to old men to retire
has sometimes, if followed, very dis
astrous consequences. A man of sev
enty or eighty Is attending to his pro
fession or business in a satisfactory
manner, and he feels well. Suddenly
he decides or is adtlsed to retire and
take things 'easy' for the rest of his
days. He does and in a few weeks
or months that man is a physical or
mental wreck and ruin. As long as
he kept up his mental Interests he
was all right. A sudden change, a
sudden vacuum, I might say, perhaps
the pernicious subconscious feeling
that now It Is all over for him all
that contributed to the disaster And
it is not the physical change so much
as the mental that Is the Important
factor. I, for one, am sure that men
tal activity, mehtul interest, has a
life-prolonging tnlluence, because
mental activity stimulates many, if
not all, of our vital processes. It Is
not mental work that ever kills; It
is worry that does It, and even its
baneful Influence has been greatly ex
aggerated. We know of octogena
rians whose lives have been one round
of trouble."

More than 2,400,000 boys and girls
were reached through club work last

they produced and conserved products
amounting to $10,000,000. In the 33

, "Stocking Room" for Banks.
Has your bank u stocking room?
The Security bank of Oakland, Cal.,
couldn't sell Liberty bonds without
theirs. Here Is how It works:
Mrs. Onklanrter enters. "I want to
buy a Liberty bond, please."
"All right; sign here," says the
pleasant bank clerk.
After this the good woman hesitates,
blushes. She makes wavering passes
and then looks around with a hunting
and hunted look.
The pleasant bank clerk knows the
symptoms and politely Inquires:
"Would you like to use the stocking
room?"
Mrs. Onklander retires to the little
side room and makes a run on "the
first national bank."

Edward P. Weaver, formerly of
Bangor, Me., claimed the distinction
the other day of being the oldest oill
cer yet graduated from the free gov
ernment navigation school conducted
by the United States shipping board
recruiting service. He la sixty-nine
years of nge. Mr. Weaver, who had
ninny years' experience as a seaman,
decided while at New Orleans some
weeks ago to enter one of the schools
and train for a deck officer for the
morchnnt marine. Ho passedthe
rigid physical test without difficulty
and completed the course.
Canadian Emphasis.
By the bye, don't be shocked byour
damning and swearing. It doesn't mean
Hie wune in Canada as it docs over
here. It's natural to us. In Canada
everyone swears. My little boy he was
six years of age at the time was
shearing one day In the kitchen and
the cook told him if he was not care
ful his teeth would drop out. He looks
up at her only six years of age, mind
you and says, "Daddy's teeth haven't'
dropped outl" What do you think of
that? Gen. Alec McDougall, Canadian

We not only do not want that to happen to YOU; we will see that it does not happen if you will

Building In haste means waste. Let us first make a rough sketch for you. You can take it home
take time to think it over; talk it over with your wife or your neighbor. Then bring it back and we
will change it until it is just what you want and need. After that, we will make completed drawings,
. to scale, so you can see exactly what it Will be like, when built.
We will then figure the cost, and remember, we guarantee that if you build according to plans,
the cost of material will not be more than our figure.
None of your battling problems are too small to Interest us. A model hog' house that saves
little piga and keeps them healthy, a warm, light chicken house that will increase egg production, get
the same care as the plan for a big barn, or a fine, new home.
Are you wondering what Um service will cost you? Not a single red copper cent. We make
no charge for it, and it does not add a cent to the cost of your material. Instead, 'it actually saves
money for you.

You can't improve upon perfection and this
invention Re-Creates the singer's vorce with
such perfection that no human ear can dis
tinguish artist from instrument. The Ed
ison tone tests in which the singers
have sung in direct comparison with the
New Edison have proved this to more than
2,000,000 listeners. More than 1500 oi
these tests have been held. More than 30
great artists have appeared in them.
