BLOAT MAIN CAUSE OF DAIRY DEATHS Milk Cow Casualties Studied in Course of Cost Survey; Sec ond Report Ready. Oregon dairy cows are more in danger from bloat than from any other one cause of death. Of 200 cows that died last year on 514 Ore gon farms, bloat led all other caus es with 32 casualties to its credit. Most of these, however, were in the eastern Oregon irrigated regions. This information was gathered as a "side issue" in the present com prehensive dairy cost-of-production survey being carried on throughout the state by the farm management and dairy departments of the Ore gon Experiment station. The sec ond progress report of this survey has now been issued and may be had free from county agents or di rect from Corvailis. While bloat accounted for a third of the deaths in eastern Oregon and led the total casualties in the state as a whole, it was a minor factor in the coast region, causing but two out of 40 cow deaths there. Acci dents, on the other hand, were "worst in that section, causing 11 deaths. In the Willamette valley the most dangerous factor was calving, which caused 15 out of 91 deaths. Next to it was swallowing wire or nails, which caused 11 deaths. Ac cidents and poisoning were next in order. Other causes of death found were indigestion, impaction, milk fever and garget, old age and some scattered miscellaneous causes. For the year ending April 1, 1931, the 514 farms surveyed increased the number of milk cows from 8659 to 9262, During the year 1779 cows were sold, 200 died, 523 were pur chased and 2059 heifers freshened for the first time. Of the 1779 cowb sold, 697 were for dairy purposes and brought an average price of $79, while 1082 were sold for beef at an average price of $43. The average paid for cows bought was $78 each. Dairymen es timated the average value of their cows dropped from $105 to $86 dur ing the year. The survey report consists large ly of cost-of-productlon figures and Bhows many of the factors involved in economical management ' HARDMAN. MRS. ELLA FARRENS.

United States consumption of 364,310,000 pounds of domestic wool in 1931 exceeded the 273,329,000 pounds used in 1930 by 90,980,000 pounds, according to department of commerce estimates compared by the National Wool Marketing corporation. Total consumption of domestic and foreign combing and clothing wools for 1931 was 412,000, 000 or 66,798,000 pounds more than consumption in 1930. Decline of the use of foreign wools, except carpet wools, which are all foreign, was brought about by the tariff and the more favorable domestic prices. Less wool was im ported during 1931 than for several years past, bringing - benefits to American wool producers. Consumption of all grades of do mestic wool in 1931 showed in creases over 1930, check of the fig ures reveals. Fine wools led all other grades, both for quantity of domestic and foreign wool3. This was due to the strong demand for finer wools to be woven into wo men's wear. Wool is the fashion favorite of all textiles for 1932, as it was in 1931. The United States consumed 155,058,000 pounds of fine wool during 1931, the bulk of it combing wool. Fourteen million pounds of fine wool were imported. Halfblood wools were in steady demand during most of the year, consumption totalling 70,237,000 pounds, of which 6,000,000 pounds were foreign. Three-eighths blood wools made a decided consumption jump over 1930, with 64,240,000 pounds being used. Only three million pounds were foreign wool. In 1930 the United States consumed 43,242,000 pounds of three-eighths blood wool. Consumption of quarter blood wools totaled 48,036,000 pounds, compared to 39,733,000 pounds in 1930. In 1931 thte United States consumed 4,300,000 pounds of im ported quarter blood wool, against ten million pounds the year before. Low quarter blood wool consump tion totaled 12,800,000 pounds in 1931. Consumption of all coarser grades of wool remained about the same as in 1930. Revival of the wool industry dur ing the worst depression in history was unprecedented, although the strong demand placed the commod ity in its former place of suprem acy among textiles, the National Wool Marketing corporation ob serves. Throughout the year and principally during the summer and early fall months mills were busy filling depleted stocks, Following the end-of-the-year period of quiet, wool consumption has increased, demand centering on fine wools for women's wear. The sharp upturn in wool con sumption has not been reflected in higher prices, because of general economic conditions and the rela tively low price of other textiles, as well as all other commodities. All prices are remaining on compara tively low levels, although the rise of other commodities will be her alded by wool and It should be the first to register any Increase be cause of its strong statistical posi tion, officials of the National Mar keting corporation believe. Wool Market Letter for Week Ending Feb. 13th From National Wool Marketing Corporation. Conditions in our domestic wool markets have Improved over last week. Broader demand has de veloped for most grades of wool, but more especially for fine and halfblood combing grades. That these purchases have been made against orders for goods has been indicated by Insistent demand for quick deliveries. The National Wool Marketing corporation, being able to show the best selections, has received Its full share of the business recently de veloped at firm prices. Good Market i While the New York goods market has continued to reflect the gloom which, during the past year, has Bettled over nearly every activity In that city, demand for garments for women's wear may still be termed fairly good. This accounts, to some ex tent, for the larger turn-over of fine wools and should improve rath er than diminish during the East er season. A revival of activity in men's wear also has been noted. Widely advertised sales of men's clothing, at which unprecedented values were offered, have been In progress all over the country and llllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllMMIIIj At Heppner CHURCHES CHURCH OF CHRIST.

"And it came to pass, when the evil spirit was upon Saul, that Da vid took an harp, and played with his hand; so Saul was refreshed, and was well, and the evil spirit departed from him " I Sam., 16-23. In a certain state hospital for the insane the soothing power of music is being applied in the treat ment of the patients. Says the prominent alienist in charge: "We have found that high-grade music not only tends to tranquilize the unsettled emotions of the mental patient, but it arouses his interest as nothing else will; further, it has unusual power in awakening dor mant memories of the patient's past life." This is all very interesting, but the power of music to turn psycho logical confusion and disorder into order is not a new discovery. The discovery was made long, long ago. An ancient Instance of its use to that end is cited in the text above, when David came with his magic harp to relieve King Saul's mental depression and restore his distract ed mind to its normal state. The value of good music as a mental tonic has long been recog nized; not only as applied to abnor mal brains, but also as applied to normal brains as well. While writ ing his immortal poems, Milton had music played on his organ, in an adjoining room. Music not only stirs and pleases the emotions; it stirs and stimulates the brain. And if we made more use of good music to this end, we might all do more rational thinking. The musij of the soul in tune with the things of God, keeps man upright and a Christian; keeps him sweet and true and steady and clean; keeps him master of himself, because the melody of heaven al lows the incoming of NO untoward note, to destroy the immortla har monies of God in human lives.

"For God hath no appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ." I Thess. 5-9. What a wonderful salvation God offers to the children of men. It was prompted by love, wroughth out in love, and it is a salvation that brings love. It is also a sal vation of righteousness. The New Testament exalts love but does not omit righteousness. Man has sin ned. He has broken the law, fallen short of the Divine purpose con cerning him. The Son of God is mighty to save; able to save to the uttermost all who come unto God through His name. We are saved not only from death, but for life. Eternal Life is not only length of life, but breadth of life, and depth of life, and height of life, and pur ity of life, and joy of life, and hope of life. The New Testament In Revelation says, "And the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that heareth say, Come. And let him that is athirst, come. And whomsoever will, let him take of the water of life freely." Doesn't such a salvation stir the depths of your soul? This is what God offers you. The messages for the coming Sunday serviec3 will exemplify this great salvation. We invite you to be present at these servics. EPISCOPAL SERVICES. Rev. S. W.

More season able weather in various sections has been of some aid in the situa tion. Foreign Markets: All foreign markets continue firm. England and the Continent are buying free ly, but Japan is the main contrib uting factor to the maintenance of values In Australia and probably will so continue while in arms. There appears to be little prospect now for lower prices abroad or for any sizeable carryover at the end of the season. Outlook at Home: It seems prob able that the months Immediately ahead will witness fairly active markets and that our predictions made some time ago, that no bur densome carryover into the next season would result, will come true. Among the most vital purposes sought In the enactment of relief measures at Washington is to raise commodity values to a point where costs of production at least may be realized. If this proves successful wool values should move forward in line with those of other basic commodities. How far such hoped for improvement may extend will depend on the values of competing foreign wools which are still above importing parity. IRRIGON MRS. W. C. ISOM. Mr. and Mrs. F. O.

Figures are usually dry reading, but if you will consider some of the following facts you will get a side light upon prohibition, which is never men tioned in the wet arguments. During the period, 1901-1918, the attendance in our public schools in creased 21.7 per cent, while during the period, 1920-1928, the attendance increased 27.6 per cent. The aver age school population for the latter period was only 13 7 per cent great er than for the former period. The average attendance (which tells the period was 25.5 per cent greater than for the former period, and the avrage attendance (which tells the real story) was 34.9 per cent great er for the 1920-1928 period than for the 1910-1918 period. - The rate of Increase In enroll ment was greater than the rate of increase in average school age pop ulation by 86.1 per cent. While the rate of increase in average attend ance was greater than the rate of increase in average school age pop ulation by 154.7 per cent, and the rate of Increase in average attend ance was greater than the rate- of increase in enrollment by 36.9 per cent. Thus we see a great increase in percentage of enrollment, and a rel atively greater increase in average attendance. How is this account ed for? No doubt, the greatest sin gle factor was the outlawing of the saloon. The greatest step-up in at tendance was during the 1920-1922 period, beine 2,228,178. J. W. Crabtree, secretary of the National Education Association, says that unquestionably the 18th amendment has benefitted the schools beyond measure. Further more, that the survey made by the association at the request of the Wickersham commission shows that the conditions in the high schools of the nation both as to drinking and general behavior Is much better than it was prior to the adoption of the amendment. Prohibition closed 507 distilleries, 1,247 breweries, and 177,790 saloons, Tens of thousands of boys and girls who, under the old saloon regime were compelled to contribute their mite to the support of the family because a large part of the father's pay check was gome over the sa loon bar, were now free to enroll In the public schools. Tens of thousands, of boys and girls who, had the saloon continued to exist, would have been compelled to leave school on attaining working age, now go to high school and col lege, The Increase In attendance In high schools and colleges Is one of the amazing facts of our times, NEW CARROT USES TOLD BY EXPERT Different Recipes for Every Day In Month Given In New O. a C.

Thirty-one Ways of Using Ore gon Carrots" Is the title of a new six-page mimeograph circular by Lucy A. Case, nutrition specialist Miss Case calls attention to the fact that carrots are a favorite Oregon vegetable product, grown commer cially on some 400 acres and proba bly occupying many times that area in home gardens. Once considered merely cow feed, carrots are now universally used as a table vegetable either raw or cooked, and have been popularly considered, at least, as a complex ion builder, but Miss Case doesn't vouch for any such properties. She says they are valuable enough for their contribution, along with oth er similar vegetables, of lime, iron, vitamins and roughage in the diet v-arrois are now practically a year-round vegetable, and are abun dant when many others are scarce. Their popularity has also resulted in new and improved table varieties being developed so that the best sorts now bear little resemblance in flavor to some of the old stock carrots. Here are a few of the wavs Mi Case tells of using carrots in her list or recipes: cream of carrot soup, glazed carrots, carrot fritters, raw carrot salad combinations, cooked carrot salad combinations, carrots au gratin, carrot timbales, carrot loaf, carrot and peanut loaf, candied carrots, scalloped carrots, fricassee carrots, carrot pie and carrot pudding.
