Tha final test of Germany's gin-' eerity In Its peace bids seems at' hand, as Foch and allie military: leaders aro asked to lay, down terms upon which an armistice cm be granted. Although no offi cial announcement has been made, it is indicated by President Wil son's notes to Berlin that General Foch will ask a virtual reversal of the battle line as it exists today," all of which means a virtual sui render for HI N arms. Foch will ask that the allies be given impor tant German towns and territory, to be held by allied leaders while Jhe defeated lil'X array is evac uating all invaded territory. It would mean that, should peace' a r r a it geiuents fail, hostilities would be resumed on German soil, as indicated by the battle line ff: the Rhine rivur. " MMiEtiSo-- -.T.oueNTiM j I .

We design knit garments just as some very well-known cut ters plan a gown or suit of clothes, the mode of the moment is caught and fashioned into Jantzcn knit wear.

JANTZEN KNITTING MILLS Thomson Brothers Heppner, Oregon YOU ALWAYS W - 'CE - A GENUINE JANTZEN Oregon Agricultural College, Cor vallis, Nov. 6. Selection of seed potatoes from hills that have re sisted disease, show no weaknesses, ! and are high yielding and true to type, is advised by B. P. Sheehan, of j the farm crops department. Con tinued selection, he points out, ! almost invariably results iu inerea3 i i;ig the productivity of a variety. 1 T!io labor involved is slight iu com parison with results. I "The average yield hi Oregon Is approximately 130 bushels an acre," lie says, "while many of the best ' powers are getting double that I yield. More attention must be given to improvement if tho Oregon tuber j is to hold its own either as table or i seed stock. The Burbank, pride of iiultnomah, and netted gem are in great demand in southern markets. Some method of Improvement Is re quired to enable Oregon growers to meet the demand. "Potato improvement rests upon three things seed selection, seed I treatment, and disease-free potato j lands. The potato should be treated j for scab and other diseases and j planted in clean soil. Before har- vest all weak and diseased plants , should be rogued out. Seed Is ' selected from the remaining hills that show the most promise. Each hill should be dug separately and inspected for disease or signs of run ; l ing out. Medium sized tubers, pre ferably five to eight ounces, are selected. Many hills of high yielding stock may be selected in this way aad massed In a seed plot, from which seed for the general planting ueKt year is taken." L.

Ore M ore onservation On September 3rd the Priorities C mmis fcioner of the War Industries Board, Issued Circular Nu. 21. Among other things this document, saving certain exceptions, absolutory prohibited, all NEW construction, except such as might be allowed Mi'.'.r definite regulations touching the issuance of permits. With the purpose of Naming whether a modi f ation of the order would be conststant with the (' 'liniment's needs a committee representiu;; state u.id regional organizations of retail lumber dealers, comprehending a membership of approximately .: e y-f.ve hundred, came to Washington to confer !; the Priorities Commissioner, Judge Edwin B. 1'arker. The situation was canvassed in a broad spirit. rc-i. lilts' committee urged that as the order I it rr.i','ht result in unnecessary curtailment i ( .arm improvement and thereby in a measure : ' y handicap the all important subject of i d r..:servation. recognizing the force of this suggestion, , rnineiit ollicials, however, reasoned that, r me need of the hour was LABOR FOR UAL AND DIRECT WAR WORK. To building operations, even on the farm, to ,-.urd unchecked would inevitably weaken the 'b war labor need and this at a time when uernment was seeking to put in play every ": t ounce of our power, both in men and resource, to crush the enemy of all humanity. s Finally, alter the earnest representations of tho committee it was agreed that Rule 2 of Circular No. 21 ba changed to read: "REPAIRS OF OR EXTENSIONS TO EXIST ING BUILDINGS INVOLVING IN THE AGGRE GATE A COGT NOT EXCEEDING TWENTY FIVE ilf.'NDRED DOLLARS ($2500.00), AND NEW CONSTRUCTION FOR FARM PURPOSES ONLY INVOLVING IN THE AGGREGATE A COST NOT EXCEEDING ONE THOUSAND ($1000.00) DOL LARS." The committee gave its pledge to the Priority Commissioner that the industry would in every way in its power t-ee to it that the thought was brought home to the purchaser that skilled labor should be employed only in naso of absolute necessity. IN OTHER WORDS, WHEREVER POSSIBLE THE BUILDING WORK SHOULD BE DONE BY THE FARMER AND III S OWN HELP, AND NO NEW WORK UNDERTAKEN EXCEPT WHERE ABSOLUTELY NEEDED. It is therefore up to the industry to keep faith with Washington. The most important thing in life right now is to utterly crush the Huu. No personal interest, no selfish purpose should inter fere with this great need.
