And he is known at his bauk by the way in which he keeps his monetary affairs. This, in turn, places an obligation upon the bank itself that of cheerful and help ful service offered freely at all times to the responsible customer. And that is the attitude this bank takes to help the ambitious business man in the safe conduct of his business affairs. Call and ask us to explain this more in detail. It will involve no obligation on your part whatsoever. We have a distinct banking service to offer, and want to tell you face to face just what it is.

He finds it costs less, too. The good tobacco taste lasts so much longer he doesn't need to have a fresh chew nearly as often. Any man who uses the Real Tobacco Chew will tell you that.

Asst. Co. Acent Leader.) j The yield on approximately 100, 000 acres of alfalfa land in Eastern Oregon may be increased on an av erage of one ton per acre per year by the application of 100 pounds of flower of sulphur every four years. This alfalfa land is located in the heart of the best range livestock areas m the state. Articles regarding the results ob tained with sulphur in Deschutes county have been published in many papers in past years. In that coun ty seventeen carloads were applied to alfalfa land within a period of eighteen months and yields were in creased on an average somewhat above a ton per acre. It has been demonstrated, however, during the past two years, that equally as good results may be secured in Klamath and Union counties. In Klamath county, sulphur is now shipped in in carload lots under the direction of the Farm Bureau and is recognized as a staple in agricultural trade. Far mers in Union county have not yet made wholesale applications, but will do so this fall. Sulphu was applied to alfalfa WORLD'S GREATEST VICTOR IS NO NAPOLEON Marshal Foch is the greatest liv ing soldier, the greatest living gen eral today, because he won the great est war in history. More, he took command in the midst of the most dismal defeat and in less than eight months had ended the war with the world's greatest martial victory. What would Napoleon have done under such circumstances? Make himself an emperor, of course, and go in for more wars. And Foch? He has no such thots. Listen to the following extract from his speech at the tomb of Napoleon on the 1 00th anniversary of that con queror's death. It reads like the speech of a pacifist. Here are his words: "He carries the art of war above all known heights, but this art pro ceeds to carry Napoleon himself to the reeion of dizziness. He wishes to regulate the fate of nations by the sword, as if one were able to make the happiness of a people spring from victories, painful sacrifices in themselves. "As if this people could live by elorv and not hy work. "As if the defeated nations, their independence struck down, would not be bound to rise some day and reconquer it. As if, in a civilized world, moral right would not prove superior to a power resting solely on force, no matter how talented it might be.

M TL.J-, 1 this year for the first time in Mal heur county, one of the leading range sheep counties of the state. Reports j from there show that favorable re i turns were secured. In Umatilla I county, results varying from 13 to i0 per cent increase were secured this year and in the alfalfa districts jof Wasco, Morrow and Lake coun- ties, nearly a ton per acre is being secured. Soils of Wallowa county, i in the northeastern corner of the! state, also respond to sulphur. Fred j Falconer, sheepman of that county who recently purchased the Cunning- ham Cnaan nmnnrtxr trt I Imattlla ' county, uses the yellow dust exten sively. The county agents throughout Eastern Oregon list sulphur work as an important part in their programs and vigorous campaigns for its gen eral adoption will be carried on until the alfalfa acreage in those districts responding well to its use has been effectively treated. Sulphur, con trary to opinions held some years ago, is now recognized as a direct plant food for alfalfa and clover. There are approximately four pounds of the yellow element in a ton of al falfa hay. Knowledge of this fact was obscured in the earlier days of scientific research in agriculture, by reason of the fact that the element escaped as a gas from plant residues while being burned preparatory to analysis. No ill effects are experienced in Foch Speaking at Tomb of Napoleon "There is. justice to be respected everywhere. Above war there is peace." This is the conqueror who will visit America soon.

The ill effects to be expected are increased acidity, which will pro bably limit the use of sulphur in hu mid districts. The difference in land contents between the soils in arid and humid districts is very great. The average for the former being 1.3 per cent, while the latter average runs around .10 and .15 per cent. Soils in Deschutes county where the use of sulphur is more general, run as high as five per cent in lime content. Althoueh many serious problems confront the range sheep men, the fundamental problem of maximum forage production which means more cheap forage, still remains, and the use of sulphur, the adoption of Grimm alfalfa and the building of silos are the methods being follow ed in Eastern Oregon to provide it. The Toll of Accidents Accidents kill more people in the United States 'in one year than the much-dreaded scourge of cancer, ac cording to a compilation of statistics just completed by the American Red Cross. The toll of accident deaths in 1918, the latest year for which fig ures are now available, was 83,000, the announcement stated. Automobile fatalities have increas ed tenfold during the last decade, the statement continued. Ninety people out of each million of population were killed by automobiles in 1918 compared with ten per million annu ally from 1906 to 1910. While slaugh ter by automobiles has thus increas ed, it is pointed out, the safety move ment in Americta has appreciably reduced the number of deaths on railroad and trolley tracks. "The control of accident fatalities and injury is one of the outstanding problems in the movement for longer and healthier lives," says the Red Cross statement. "Life-saving and 1-Viii.iwa yf t'nr J Clt Q0 IV ne result of our great war-tnmie relations with South Ainerira Is going to be that we wilt enjoy South American products more and more. If they buy from us we will have to. trade It out. So, we understand, arrangements are being made to ship a number of the Soulh American llamas to the United States for pleasure and other purposea. "You have seen llamas In circuxes but as curiosities. They ure rlrst-class beasts of burden. You can load them up with packs or harness them to wagons and buggies. The llama Is fairly docile and certainly would be a curiosity at tached to an American buggy or pony cart. They have long wool-like coats and intelligent attractive heads." First Aid instruction, which the Red Cross provides through Chapters scattered throughout the country, has in the last seven years helped lessen drowning accidents. If the drowning death rate of 1906-1910 had prevail ed in 1918, for instance, there would have been 2,100 more deaths than actually oucurred." SMILE AWHILE Exclusive.
