Are you going to do any building or
repair work this fall?
Are you going to build a new barn,
machine shed or root cellar?
Farm machinery is too costly to be al
lowed to remained out in the weather,
while for a medium cost a good shed could
be built to protect it from the elements.
Proper shelter for the live stock solves feed
and is true economy. Feed used by the
animals to make heat can t put on flesh at
the same time.
We must not let buildings go to rack
and ruin because the country is at war, on
the contrary the call is for economy and con
servation through timely repairs.
Come in and see us.

Washington. — Prosecution of the
three army officers held by Charles
Evans Hughes in his report on the air-
craft investigation to be guilty of deal
ing with corporations in which they
were financially interested is to be
started witbqut delay, it was said at
the department of justice. The case
may be laid before a federal grand
Jury in Washington.
Delays and waste of the production
program, the report declares, were due
chiefly to "defective organization of
the work of aircraft production and
the serious lack of competent direction
of that work by the responsible offi
cers of the signal corps.”
The civilian personnel of the air
craft production board is exonerated
of wrongdoing.
The government requests that you buy your Xmas presents early.

Milk may be used not only as an
addition to an already rich diet, but
in place of some of the slowly digested
dishes which over tax the digestive
organs and impair the health. Milk
contains all the elements necessary
to sustain life and build up the body.
It must be remembered too, that butter
is a food for all, for rich and poor, for
old and young. Cottage cheese is
another dairy product that is of great
food value.

Milk As An Energy Maker Acknowl
edged by Shipbuilders.
Because Portland and Seattle ship-
builders make a scramble for the milk
bottles when the noon whistle blows
they are becoming famous and to the
fact that they drink milk is attributed
their ability to do better work than
any other shipbuilders.
Now comes San Francisco showing
she, too, has taken up the habit. The
Pacific Dairy Review says "one dis
tributer alone supplies 1,500 quarts
daily to men in the Union Iron Works,”
although, the review adds, "in San
Francisco, the milk-drinking habit is
still in its infancy.” Here's another
argument for keeping up the dairy
herds. The milk bottle is backing the
beer can off the map. Time was
when the men of the iron works would
have "rushed the can" as they termed
getting their beer.

"You get more calories to the
penny from milk than from any
other food even at the present
price,” said Dr. E. J. Labbe,
specialist, who returned recent
ly from Europe and who spoke
at the State Fair and at other
patriotic gatherings. Dr. Labbe
told of the children he treated
in the Red Cross children's hos
pital in Evian, on Lake Geneva,
in France. The little French
and Belgian refugees were wan
and weak and almost lifeless.
A milk diet soon brought good
results and the babes thrived.
"But,” said Dr. Labbe, “they
will never entirely shake off
the marks made by the months
in which they were starved for
milk. Children must have milk
if the race is to go on. It is
every man's and every woman's
duty to do all in his power to
keep the herds of Oregon alive.
Feed men, mill men, dairymen,
householders, dealers, everyone
must co-operate. The babies of
the world must be saved.”
