0LO6NC LINE
REVEliSED UATTLE LINE WILL TEST GERMAN PEACE SINCERITY.
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. "

"VOU'LL enjoy the cold days
when you are wearing a warm,
comfortable s!-p-on sweater or sweater coat
and the cold days of winter will have a differ
ent moaning to you when you go out properly dressed
for the weather.
Here are garments that, in addition to being warm
and wholly comfortable are cleverly made and wonderfully
attractive. They're the kind that you have seen exceptionally
well-dressed psopJe wear, that look as though they had been
made to order.
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. It keeps us
always en the alert but it paya big dividends in the popu
larity of our line.
Just try one on and see AND BE SURE TO LOOK AT
THE LABEL.

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."

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.
