W rite for term s Belmont Auto School k Carafe, Tornado Tears Through Okla homa and Texas. Farming Districts Suffer Mott—15 Dead at One Place—Wires Down, Damage Immense. Oklahoma City—Thirty-one persons are reported to have been killed by a tornado that swept Southwestern Okla homa and the southeastern corner of the Texas panhandle late Sunday. A dozen towns were struck and farming communities suffered. Communication facilities are para lyzed and.it is impossible to confirm the reports of life or estimate the proper ty damaged. The greatest loss of life reported is at Lugert, where it is said 15 persons were killed. A special train sent from Altus with physicians and nurses picked up 10 injured persons and start ed back for Altus. Two of the injured ones died on the train. It is reported that a Kansas City, Mexico & Orient train had been blown from the track and 20 persons killed, but it developed that only two cars had been derailed and no one was hurt. The tornado started just across the Texas border and first killed several persons at Kirkland, Tex., demolish ing 30 buildings, and blew a Rock Island work train off the track. Tearing on northward the storm struck Eldorado, killing four; Calumet, killing three; and Lugert, Rocky, where half the town is in ruins; Yu kon, Warren, Martha, Blair and Lone Wolf. At each of these places many per sons were hurt. Several of those towns are cut off from communication. What is believed to be the tail of the storm destroyed several buildings at Mulhall, 50 miles north of Oklahoma City, but so far as known there were no casualties there.

Salinas, Cal. — Five highbinders broke into a room here where four Chinese were playing cards, shot three of them dead, wounded the fourth ser iously and escaped. Murdered and murderers are alike unidentified. The wounded man will make no statement. From the fact that none of the com batants is known here, it is supposed that all of them were tong warriors planning a raid on marked men, but that the second party, having learned the errand of the first, tracked them to the room where they were hiding, and shot them down. The police believe both parties come either from San Francisco or Watson ville. _______________ SHamer Harvard Afire. Los Angeles—The steamer Harvard, of the Pacific Navigation company, had a narrow ecsape from destruction by fire while lying at her dock at East San Pedro. There were no passengers aboard and no one was injured. The total damage was approximately $3000. The fire started in the galley from a defective oil pipe and it re quired an hour’s work by the fire tug Warrior to extinguish the blaze. The entire galley and six staterooms on the main deck were destroyed. Flood Funds Assured. Washington, D. C.—An immediate appropriation of $1,600,000 for the rebuilding and repairing of levees on the Mississippi and its tributaries was made certain late Saturday when the house passed the senate’s joint resolu tion authorizing the expenditure. Congress previously had authorized the use of $600,000 for emergency work to stop the ravages of the flood. The situation in the Mississippi valley south of Memphis remains serious so far as the transportation of the mails is concerned. Mexicans Causa Wreck. Mexico City—The wreck of the Mexico City-Guadalajara train last week near Irapuato was credited to the striking American railway men by newspaper reports in Guadalajara. It is now reported that Consul McGill has filed a protest at thia accusation with the governor of the]state. Fur ther investigation of the wreck seems to point to an explosion of an oil tank due to carelessness or ignorance on the part of Mexican employes. Fire Sweeps Damascus. Constantinople — The great bazaar quarters in Damascus have been de stroyed by fire. Several persona were killed and many injured and the dam age is estimated at $10,000,000.

Advises Farm ers to Increase Flocks. Oregon Agricultural College, Cor vallis.—"Thera has been an enormous increase in the production of eggs and poultry In the state In the past two years, but In spite of this the demand has far exceeded the supply, and prices are still as high as ever," said Pro fessor James Dryden of the Oregon Agricultural College In discussing the object of the present tour of the poul try demonstration car sent out over the Southern Pacific lines by the col lege. "If the farmers of Oregon would keep, on an average, 100 hens Instead of about 50, It would shut out the im ports and add $4,000,000 or $5,000,000 » year to the wealth of the state. “The purpose of the demonstration car Is to stimulate a greater production of poultry and eggs. The quickest and best way Is to Increase the flocks of the farmers rather than to have poul try keepers start large egg farms. The demand cannot be met by the estab lishment of large, exclusively poultry farms. If the general farmer goes out of the egg producing business there will soon be an egg famine—possibly a serious financial panic. "Though there are opportunities for profit along special lines In poultry keeping, the market for specialties is limited, and It would be folly to advise everyone to go into special lines. I am free to confess that we have kept more people out of the poultry busi ness than have gone into it as an ex clusive business. I have received great numbers of letters during the past year from all parts of the state as well as from other states, In which the writers stated that they were go ing Into the poultry business on a large scale, and a large majority of them said they knew nothing of the busi ness. Our plain duty was to advise caution. If every one of them had gone Into the business as they Intend ed and Invested their all in It, It is safe to say that there would have been thousands of dollars lost In every coun ty of the state, and the poultry busi ness would have received a black eye. "Poultry keeping Is not a difficult business unless we make it so. If conducted along sane, common-sense lines, there Is profit In It. The two points on which special emphasis Is laid in the demonstration car are feed ing for eggs and housing. Egg rations are on display, feeding charts show re- suits of experiments, breeding charts show results of breeding for eggs, dif ferent grades and qualities of eggs are exhibited, marketing possibilities are demonstrated, and the equipment for successful hatching and brooding of chicks Is displayed. The walls of the car are covered with signs and charts containing lessons In practical poul try keeping. A 'knock down’ colony house la taken along and set up out side the car at each stop. “While chickens may be made to do well In different houses. It may be said In favor of the colony system and free range that there Is no noted poul try district In the United States where poultry-keeping has been permanently successful, where the colony house system wa* not followed. The colony bouse, moreover, was the house used at the Oregon Experiment Station last year for the hens that made the high est egg records ever made In the Unit ed States so far as official or authentic record Is concerned. The demonstra tors on the car explain how those hens were housed and cared for, and answer any questions as to their feeding and treatment.” DRY FARMING ALFALFA. Prof. 8cudder Sees Big Possibilities In Alfalfa Seed. Oregon Agricultural College, Cor vallis.—The growing of alfalfa on the dry farming lands of Oregon In culti vated rows for the production of seed has been the special dry farming hob by of Prof. H. D. Scudder of the Ore gon Agricultural College. He has ad vocated this plan wideiy through East ern Oregon for the past five years, and is beginning to see practical results on a large scale. A prominent wheat farmer at Arlington has planned to put In ICO acres of alfalfa on his dry land, and has asked the agronomy de partment of the college for special In struction and for the best seed. An other man, one of the largest wheat farmers In Gilliam county, Is to put In 1,000 acres of alfalfa this spring. The meat number of letters oomlns to Prof Scudder from all parts of Eastern and Central Oregon on this subject tndi- -ales the first great change for the better In dry farming agriculture there. REEF. NOT ICE, HIT? DOTATION OF GARDEN CROPS Theory Given That Titanic Struck Submerged Rock. New York—The suggestion that the Titanic struck a ledge of rock and not an iceberg is made in the current issue of the Nuutical Gazette, a weekly shipping paper. The possibility of such an accident is urged because the ship struck in the same longitude as the half-submerged Virgin Rocks to the north ar.d possibly in the same spot where the Naronic foundered in 1898. The Titanic, it is suggested, being the deepest ship of the seas, might have hit a rock that other ships have passed over safely. The Gazette says that at least a survey of the place should be made by the United States government. Under the bead of “ What Did She Strike?” The Gazette says: "A strange possibility arises from the coincidence in proximity of posi tion of the Titanic and the Naronic disasters. The position where the Ti tanic met her doom was lattitude 41:46, longitude 50:14. This is south of the Grand Banks, but in just about the same longitude is the dan gerous submerged Virgin Reef. The action of the Gulf Stream, the exist ence of the Virgin Rocks, and even the proximity to the surface of the Georges Shoals, nearer the coast shows that even in this distant part of the Atlantic there may be submerged ledges of rock never hitherto dis covered.” Too Much of On* Thing on the Sams Spot Roba the Soil and Lower* Yield—Can Be Prevented NAVY DISCREDITS THEORY. Theory of Submerged Rocks Pro nounced Improbable. Washington, D. C.—With the Vir gin Rocks fully 250 miles north of where the Titanic foundered, navy hy- drographers express the opinion that it is exceedingly improbable that the liner struck those or- any semi-sub- merged rocks. | While no soundings ever have been made in the immediate vicinity where the Titanic went down, they explain that soundings farther northward show a steady decline of the sea bot tom toard the ship’s position. It is said at the hydrographic office that as the water where the Titanic struck is approximately two miles deep, it would take a formation with an enormous base to bring the apex anywhere near the surface, and sound ings at a 10-knot distance would show a rise in the ocean’s bottom. The nearest soundings made south of the point where the disaster occurred are 60 miles away and these show 2100 fathoms. Nothing is known of how the Nar onic met her fate in 1893, but the rec ords say she might have struck an ice berg, been wrecked in a field of ice, or had an explosion, but all the charts reveal is that two of her boats were found on March 4, 1893, at latitude 42 north and longitude 46 west. BILLS FOR COAST PASS. Public Buildings Are Authorized—En try Laws Changed. Washington, D. C.—The senate has passed the following bills: Granting to the city of Portland a ■trip of land around the postoffice and custom house sites to enable widening of the streets. Authorizing construction of public buildings at Vancouver and Klamath Falls and increasing the limit of the cost of buildings at Albany and The Dalles. Providing that no entryman on a government irrigation project shall be subject to contest if he fails to main tain residence on his land prior to the time water is available for irrigation. Granting extension of three years in which to make proof of desert land entries. Authorizing establishment of a sta tion of the Pacific Coast for investiga tion of marine fisheries. Establishing a fish, cultural station in Idaho. Extending the surface rights act to state selections, so that states may select public lands classified as coal, acquiring title to the surface, mining rights being reserved to the govern ment. Office Given J, N. Teal. Washington, D. C.—Harry Wheeler, of Chicago, was elected president of the National'Chamber of Commerce of the United States, which had perfect ed its organization earlier in the day. J. N. Teal, of Portland, Or., was elec ted vice-president for the Pacific Slope. The by-laws of the new or ganization provide for methods of dis closing through a system of referen dum, the commercial opinion of the United States on questions deemed by the directorate to be of National im portance.

Ask your doctor how often he prescribes an alcoholic stimulant for children. He will probably say, “ Very, very rarely.’’ Ask him how often he prescribes a tonic for them. He will probably an swer, “ Very, very frequently.” Then ask him about Ayer’s Sarsaparilla as a strong and safe tonic for the young. Not a drop o f alcohol io it. Always keep a box of Ayer’s Pills in the house. Just one pill at bedtime, now end then, will ward off many an attack of biliousneas, indigestion, sick-headachs. How many years has your doctor known these pilla? Ask him all about them. Protect Sheep From Doge.
