Colorful Philippine Moroland, where under the American flag live sultans, rajahs, princesses and imams, was brought closer to Manila when Dayang Dayang (prin cess) Hadji Piandao of Sulu signed documents renouncing long-standing land claims of the Sulu sultanate against the Philippine government. Heiress to the late Sultan Jamalul Kiram II, the Dayang Dayang in herited the claims of the sultanate to various lands, including 700 islets in the Celebes sea as well as the people on them and the waters about them. In renouncing the claims, the prin cess accepted an offer of the govern ment, embodied in a law, to adjudi cate to certain members of the Sulu royal house tracts of land of the pub lic domain in the Sulu archipelago. Titles to these pieces of land ac cordingly will be issued by the com monwealth. In the renunciatory documents, however, the Dayang Dayang re served her claims to exclusive own ership of 14 islets between Sulu archipelago and Borneo. Inhabited by Moros (Filipino Mohammedans), these 14 islets actually are under the jurisdiction of British North Bor neo, to which the Dayang Dayang has presented claims of ownership. According to the princess, she in herited the islets from her royal an cestors and she is the only person who could rightfully govern them. She says the inhabitants of the islets recognize her as their own sovereign. U. S. to Prepare a Haven In Nevada for Wild Life A 40,COO-acre swamp and meadow in eastern Nevada will be prepared for occupancy by migrating birds and waterfowl, Capt. Keith K. Tatom of the Fort Douglass CCC district headquarters here has an nounced. The area, located in Ruby valley, Nevada, will be the third largest migratory bird sanctuary in the United States. A section of land about 16 miles long and two miles wide has been acquired by the federal government. The area is fed by many natural springs that will provide natural waterways and islands. It will make “ ideal swampland” for birds, Tatom said. The job of engineers is to convert a vast waste land into an even more worthless wasteland. Much of the area will be flooded, and bushes and other herbage planted to create the best possible conditions for migrat ing birds. The valley is already a natural resting place and nesting ground for ducks, geese, pelicans and almost every other variety of migratory bird found in this section of the country. By scientific methods they hope to change it into a place more natural than even nature could devise. Two hundred CCC boys have been put to work clearing the land of worthless vegetation, cutting canals and building islands for the birds to alight on. The refuge will be surpassed in size only by the Bear River refuge in Utah and the Malheur refuge in central Oregon.

Rodents Carry Plague Infection CORVALLIS — The danger of plague infection in handling rodents is emphasized by a report received by O.S.C. from southern Oregon, that a marmot examined by the state health service had been found posi tive for plague. Dr. Karl Frederich Meyer, director of the Hooper found ation for medical research, who spoke at Oregon State last winter, called attention to the danger in handling chipmunks, squirrels, prairie dogs and cottontail rabbits, as well as rats, as any of these may be infected or may carry infected fleas. ◄ ◄ ◄ ◄ ◄ ◄ C A N N IN G Peaches A ► ► ► ► ► ► ► Sulfur Still Best Fertilizer at LAKEVIEW—The use of sulfur WURSTER'S on alfalfa, long a standard practice in eastern Oregon, is still giving bet iy 2 Mile West of ter results than any other fertilizer Umatilla treatment on Lake county soils, re ports Vic Johnson, county agricultur lHale’s & Late Elberta^- al agent.

Kenneth Warren, violin appraiser for a national musical instrument firm, counsels: “ It is significant that of all the hundreds of so-called Cremonese violins that have been brought in for appraisal not a single genuine in strument has ever been found. “ Hundreds of persons a year, who have violins bearing the labels of the Cremonese makers, Stradivari us, Guarnierius and Amati, come to us to sell them. — Specials for August 16, 17 & 19 — “These instruments were not made to deceive anyone.

As both food prep aration and the cleaning away proc esses involve (he use of the sink, more than half of the housewife's cooking time in the kitchen is spent at the sink. Among the many types which may be chosen is an acid- resisting, cast-iron, enameled sink, with chromium plated swinging spout and a disappearing spray hose, obtainable in single or double compartment styles, with one or two drainboards. A 60-inch cabinet sink has two drainboards and one basin: the 42 and 52-inch models have one basin and one drainboard. All models are 36 inches high, which is the correct height for the average woman, and all are 23% inches wide, which is the standard width of the steel base cabinets. The sink, since it is the most used fixture, should be half way between the refrigerator and I the range.
