The Price of Life.
"If by the spirit ye put to death
the deeds of the body, ye shall live."
Romans 8-13.
The whole wide world Is engaged
these days in consideration of the
"price" of things. And In a material
way this must be so for the "prices"
of the many articles and commod
ities in use by common humanity
have greatly to do with the comfort
and physical well being of human
ity. The average "price" of an article
or commodity is set or fixed In the
base coin of the realm or country
in which the artcile or commodity
is sold and used.
To some of those more favored
the "price" of anything they want,
within reason, is not of very great
consequence, for they have the
"price" always within their reach.
But to a great many of the earth's
peoples the matter of "price" is of
very grave consequence, since they
many times do not have the "price"
within their reach for the article or
commodity they may greatly need.
THE PRICE OF LIFE. This is
something that concerns all, the
rich, the poor, the middle class, ev
ery last human being. And the
PRICE OF LIFE is within the
reach of the dweller in the poorest
hut as well as of the one in the
great mansion or palace. Some of
the material things of life we are
able to do without no matter wheth
er we have the PRICE or not. But
sometime, somewhere, we shall all
meet the tremendous need of hav
ing with us the PRICE OF LIFE
ETERNAL!

Rolling Down to Reno
(Continued from First Page)
Great Salt Lake. The blue-green
water was rolling high with great
white-capped breakers, a refresh
ing sight. But as the car came to
a level with the basin, the parched
and cracked old salt-beds were re
vealed to have been playing a trick
on the perceptions the evening
sun reflected from the crystals had
created a mirage, an illusion such
as drove many a famished old
desert sourdough out of his mind.
Hardly had the car reached the
edge of the old salt bed than Char
lie sighted a coyote, one of the few;
wild living creatures seen in all Ne
vada and it may be this was just
Inside of Utah. It looked haggard
and hungry, a sort of craven crea
ture as it turned broadside for a
perfect shot from the .22 in Charlie's
hands. Charlie thought it was hang
ing close to Wendover to pick up
refuse, as little other signs of sub
sistence were In evidence.
For all its aridness, Nevada is
alluring. One has been prepared
for this special lure by stories of
rich strikes, strikes of gold and
silver and copper which were re
sponsible for giving Nevada enough
population to become a state. Ev
erywhere, It seemed, mountains
grotesque, barren mountains ex
cept for runty sage and Juniper
were streaked with mineral color
ings. And everywhere badgers had
been at work, pocket-hunting bad
gers, breaking up rock and throw
ing up the colored earth. How
much of it is pay dirt, no one knows
but it makes one want to get out
and dig, any place, every place, It
seemed.
Nevada, the sixth largest state,
has given the world more than a
billion dollars in gold and other
minerals. This has been Its largest
source of income. All the culti
vated land seen In crossing the state
could ' be lost In Morrow county.
The mines have not flourished for
several years, and many mines at
McGlll, Ely, Eureka and Austin, and
other old mining towns along the
way, were closed. Recent improve
ments in the mineral market have
caused increased activity, however.
One large copper mine at McGlll
was running 30 days and down 30
days, changing Bhlfts with another
large copper mine In the vicinity
owned by the same company. Like
the old prospector, one cannot but
have faith that "thar's gold in them
thar hills"
One lasting impression of a trip
across Nevada is the Interminable
mountains of rock and broad fiat
spans of desert. One is never out
of sight of either, it seems; and all
are the same, yet different As the
light changes, large white stretches
of hardpan become beautiful blue
lakes of water, and a sand twister
may appear as smoke from the
stack of a steamboat The whole
landscape is tinted in delicate col
ors, as the light desert air permits
seeing great distances with only a
ngnt Blue naze to obstruct the
view. Everything seems close, yet
rar, a sort or lairyland fit for an
artist's brush. Water is at a pre
mium everywhere, and one imag
ines nne auaiia nelds on the level
desert reaches if only sufficient wa
ter were to be had. A refreshing
sight is one ridge of snow-capped
mountains far in the distance. Ne
vada has a few peaks more than
10,000 feet high. Then again, very
refreshing, is the irrigated region
about Fallon where water is run
ning in the ditches, and one passes
by the oldest federal reclamation
project in the United States, though
the water is low behind the dam
and reports were heard that only
one crop of alfalfa would be har
vested this year.
From Fallon a drop southward
was made to visit Carson City, the
smallest capital city in the country.
A quaint city it seemed, with relics
of the hard old western town still
intermingled with the modern
town. The richly landscaped Cap
itol grounds were surrounded by a
high iron picket fence, permitting
only occasional glimpses of the old
capitol building.
Then past mineral springs, one
with beautiful large natatorium,
through a beautiful green valley,
with plenty of water, it seemed, to
Reno Reno with its beautiful city
park on the Truckee river, its copper-domed
city hall, its beautiful
University of Nevada campus, its
beautiful homes all surrounded by
wonderful green lawns and gardens,
and its many other alluring beau
ties. One policeman in uniform was
seen in Reno, the only officer of the
law seen in Nevada. One drunk
person was seen. This may have
been just a happenstance, but it
left the impression that Nevada is
not as tough as it's cracked up to
be. But, the arldness of Nevada
leaves one with the impression that
it is located close to the "hot place"
and one hardly blames her people
for using the tools of the "Devil"
for augmenting the state's Income.
POLIOMYELITIS.
(Infantile Paralysis)
From State Board of Health.
Owing to the present agitation in
regard to the outbreak of Poliom
yelitis or Infantile Paralysis in Cal
ifornia, it seems advisable to call
attention to the fact that Oregon
has thus far ben relatively free of
the disease but effort should be
made to prevent the spread of this
infection in this state. Because of
a flare-up of infantile paralysis
throughout the country, parents are
advised to isolate children on the
appearance of suspicious sickness
and to send at once for the family
doctor. Major reliance must be
placed on the education of the pub
lic as to necessary precautions, and
on early diagnosis and proper treat
ment of all cases before paralysis
occurs.
Poliomyelitis is spread to some
extent by ordinary contact with pa
tients or those associated with or
in immediate contact with the sick.
Relatively few cases can be directly
tracer! to infection from any pre
existing case. The history of most
of the cases reveals the fact that
the spread of the infection is due
to a practically irreducible contact
with the general population.
During the 18 year period 1916 to
1933 inclusive, 883 cases and 206
deaths from Poliomyelitis have been
reported in Oregon. This repre
sents a fatality rate of 23.4 per
cent The high points were reached
in 1921 with 390 cases and 20 deaths,
in 1927 with 390 cases and 86 deaths,
and in 1928 with 84 cases and 2T
deaths. The number of cases reach
ed low points or less than ten in the
years 1918, 1919, 1920, 1922 and 1923.
Thus there has been considerable
variation in the prevalence of pol
iomyelitis from year to year. It Is
not possible to predict where an
outbreak of the disease may be ex
pected or when it will strike.
Cases and suspected cases should
be immediately reported to the
health department. As this dis
ease is most contagious during the
early stage, it is very Important
that an early diagnosis be made.
The patient should be isolated
for at least three weeks from the
onset of fever. Separate the sick
person from other members of the
family and allow no one In the room
except those necessary for attend
ance on the patient. All discharges
from nose, throat and Intestines of
the patient should be disinfected
before disposing of them. This is
of the utmost Importance because
the virus that causes Infantile par
alysis is found in the secretions of
nose, throat and intestines of the
person suffering from the disease.
The same substances have also been
discovered in similar discharges
from the nose, throat and Intestines
of persons exposed to the disease.
Children and adults who have been
exposed to the disease should not
be allowed to engage in food hand
ling or the care of children for at
least three weeks following the ex
posure. The temperature of exposed chil
dren should be frequently observed
to detect the earliest symptons
since the disease is probably most
Infectious at this stage.
During epidemics children should
not be allowed to mingle with
crowds and travel by children
should be discouraged. In families
where there are children, adults
may well refrain from mingling
with crowds as much as possible,
for adults may become carriers and
carry infection to susceptible children.
National Experts Confer
At U. of 0. on Problems
Eugene, Ore. The first pratcical
conference on higher education in
relation to present national and
world conditions, scheduled for the
University of Oregon for July 11,
12, 13 and 14, will not only draw a
number of authorities in political,
educational and economic fields, but
has already attracted national at
tention, it was announced here by
Dr. C. V. Boyer, president of the
university. Proceedings of the
meeting have already been request
ed by a number of periodicals and
by educators and others in many
parts of the United States.
A special invitation to attend this
conference and take part in dis
cussions has been extended to the
staff of the Gazette Times by Dr.
Boyer. Many of the meetings will
be open to the general public, and
persons interested are urged to at
tend. The session, which Dr. Boyer de
clares will be a "working confer
ence," will bring together experts
in several fields who will deliver
addresses, lead discussion groups
and take an active part in the event.
Forums to be held each day will in
clude topics of responsibility of
higher education to students, to
commonwealth, in adult education,
and for social training. Summaries
of these will be given by the chair
man on the final day.
One of the outstanding speakers
will be Dr. James W. Angell, pro
fessor of economics at Columbia
University, who will talk on "Gold,
Banks and the New Deal." Dr. An
gell is the author of several well
known works on international fin
ance, among them being "The The
ory of International Prices," and
"The Financial' Foreign Policy of
the United States."
A new note In both higher educa
tion and politics will be sounded by
Dr. Frederick M. Davenport, con
gressman from New York, who will
speak on "The Importance of the
Educated Politician in the New
Order." Throughout his long ca
reer in politics, Dr. Davenport has
sought to interest intelligent, uni
versity trained young men In the
public affairs of this country, and
is actively identified with founda
tions and other groups having this
as an objective. He will describe
some of these organizations during
his address, and will also outline
the work of a number of college and
university men now in Washington.
From his position in Washington
as chief of the higher education di
vision, Dr. F. J. Kelly has had am
ple opportunity to observe this field
and Its development in all parts of
the country. For this reason his
address on "Present Educational
Trends" will be watched with great
interest by experts all over the Uni
ted States.
An experiment that may vitally
affect higher education in this coun
try, the general college of Minne
sota, will be described by Dr. F. L.
Hovde, assistant director of this in
stitution. The work of this liberal
school is being watched closely by
educational authorities throughout
the country.
The conference will bring togeth
er a number of outstanding men
from the Northwest, who will de
liver addresses, act as chairman of
meetings or head discussion groups.
Included are Dr. Boyer, Dr. W. J.
Kerr, chancellor of higher educa
tion for Oregon; Dr. Norman F.
Coleman, Reed College; Burt Brown
Barker, vice-president of the uni
versity; Willard L. Marks, chair
man of the Oregon State Board of
Higher Education; George W. Pea
vy, president of Oregon State col
lege; J. A. Churchill, president of
the Oregon Normal school; Dr.
Frank M. Erickson, acting presi
dent of Willamette university, and
Dr. John F. Dobbs, president of Pa
cific university.
PHARMACY GRADS STICK.

ing graduates of the O. S. C. school
some phase of the profession for
which they were trained, according
to a survey of the 653 graduates of
that school made by the officials.
Of the total 45.2 per cent are
either registered pharmacists, man
agers or proprietors of drug stores;
6.1 are physicians, 5 per cent are
drug manufacturers' representa
tives, 3.3 per cent are on college
staffs, 1.5 per cent are medical stu
dents, 8.7 per cent are housewives,
16.3 per cent are In miscellaneous
callings and 3.8 are deceased.
ON OREGON FARMS
Corvallis Without question there
is a substantial place for Reed Ca
nary grass in many parts of the
overflow lands along the Columbia
river in Multnomah, Columbia and
Clatsop counties, says G. R. Hyslop,
chief of the plant Industries division
at O. S. C, who has recently held
some meetings and made some ob
servations in these districts. Many
farmers have been trying it out on
land that is under water a large
part of the winter, and they have
been getting very satisfactory pas
ture, Professor Hyslop says. The
seed is sown broadcast, generally
rather late. Some cover It by use
of a hay rake, and this year some
are using a corrugated roller, as the
ground is rather dry at the surface.
Dallas Cherry crop injury from
syneta beetle was cut in half In
those orchards that were sprayed
or dusted this year, estimates J. R.
Beck, county agent, after a careful
check of 18 orchards in all sections
of the county. Growers who did
not spray or dust lost from 25 to 50
per cent of their cherry crop thru
Injury from the beetle, he says.
Dusting machines were used In
most cases, although two that were
Inspected had used liquid spray.
Tillamook Considerable agita
tion against growing turnips for
cow feed has been started In Tilla
mook county, based on the suppo
sition that they flavor the milk and
thus the cheese, and although the
charges have not been proved, the
result will probably be a marked
decrease In turnip acreage In the
county this year, according to C.
H. Bergstrom, county agent It
has been stated that milk from tur
nip fed cows may be classified sep
arately and its use prohibited in
making cheese.
Eugene C. A. Schooling of Rt 3,
Junction City, who has grown sweet
clover for more than 10 years, was
one of the first farmers of Lane
county to try out the stem-rot re
sistant strain of sweet clover de
veloped at the Oregon Experiment
station. He was a sweet clover en
thusiast, but his plants always died
at the end of the first year. With
the new strain, however, he is now
growing sweet clover successfully,
and the plants live two years the
normal life of sweet clover plants.
Albany Twelve acres of corn and
15 acres of ladlno clover on the F.
D. Kropf farm of Linn county will
be irrigated this year by water
pumped through 2200 feet of con
crete pipe which was manufactured
on the farm by means of a home
made machine, reports County Ag
ent F. C. Mullen. The system is to
be Installed under ground with wa
ter to be pumped against pressure.
Bend The Northern Sweet Wa
termelon, reported as being so early
that growers are warned to watch
for ripe melons nine to 10 weeks af
ter planting, is being tried out by
C. W. Green of Tumalo, as a demon
stration trial In cooperation with
County Agent Gus Hagglund. In
addition to being extremely early,
this variety is also reported as be
ing quite frost proof, and it is des
tined to become very popular in
Deschutes county if it lives up to
these advance reports, as danger of
frost makes the growing of melons,
even for home use, very hazardous
in this county, Mr. Hagglund says.
