TO REOUUF. tlicYn-oporntion of all the women of the coiiiily in 1 1 1; important war work of food conser vation, organization and an organizer tiro essential. As results of six niontlis' work organizations have been form ed in nearly every district and effective preliminary work accomplished under the direction of Miss McCormick, emergency home demonstration agent, working under the co-operative plan of the federal department of agriculture and the State; Agricultural college. The lontr netrlected science of home economics is at last receiviny the attention it merits hecause the war has forced efficiency in the household. It has heen said that the average family wasted as much as it consumed, and while that is an exaggeration, there undoubtedly has been great waste of food a waste that if tolerated now, would mean the loss of the war. Upon the management of the househoud depends the happiness of the family as well as its nrosncrity and it should The work underway by the organized women would be beneficial to society and the community, if undertaken in ordinary times. AVith a world war at issue, it becomes most important. I he program includes among other tilings: the greater production of standard vegetable pro ducts in home gardens and greater production of poultry, beans and rabbits; (Irving and tables and water-glassing eggs; balanced menus; conservation otton, linen and needed fabrics, and a campaign for better health conditions; labor saving devices, such as iceless refrigerators, fin-less cookers, women more time and better are subjects considered also and instruction in making war breads and toods. To make (his important that Miss McCormick be retained here. She, at present divides her time between Josephine and .Jackson counties, The county is required to co-operate by paying her ex penses, estimated at, $(!()() a vear her salary being paid by Uncle Sam. Josephine county has already bid for her ex clusive service and it Jackson county tans to grasp the importance of the work, she strations elsewhere. The subject is a matter hundred women in the county, who have taken up the study of topics in the various organizations and indirect ly of great interest to their families. It is all very well to sa3r that women know how to tively without assistance or them do, but war time economies make a little aid wel comed by the most elficient. As ;i result the first six Cormifk in the count v, hot 22 rural schools by the students. Canning and drying de monstrations have been given as demonstrations in cleaning, renovating and remodelling clothing. There have been many demonstrations of food 2) since June 1 with wheatless breads, food for young children, meat substit utes, jects. J here have been Irequent lectures and lessons on home management, house sanitation, influence of home life, child welfare etc. The work is an important one too important for Jackson county not, to secure its continua tion by extending the co-operation required. DEFY KAISER BY !EI E ltHITISU AltMY IlKAIHjrAU TKItS, minders, Juno 17. Tho story of tho reason for tlio desjierato as saults delivered by tho Germans against Mont des Cats, one of tho hill defenses of Yores, In tho recent drive lias now become known. It has no military foundation, and It will probably bo the occasion for another attempt to eaptiiro the posi tion nnd the territory surrounding It when tho Cermans resume (heir J-'hinders offensive. Hero ts the story: In tho a 11 (u inn of 1!U1 tho Ger mans passed over Mont des Cats, and tho ancient Traprda monastery on It was rudely Invaded. Tho llolghin monks treated tho Germans as civilly as possible. Soon a ltrillsh cavalry detachment eanio up tho road, and a sharp skirmish followed. The (ierinans were driven from the hill into Meleren, hut thev left be hind a voting cavalry officer with many ribbons on his breast who was living. llo was Prlnro Mas of Hesse, n mere liny, and n cousin of Kaiser Wll helni. Tho monks tended him In (he monastery until ho died, unit that night they hailed hlin In the valley below. Soon nrier the kaiser neat word to . lug to tho movement ot tho popula know tho whereabouts ot tho prime's i Hon and other causes this method has urave. The old Kronen abbot sent j been found unsatisfactory, and In or- luooniuK reply; "Tell (he kaiser that 1 w ill let him know the prime's burial place when unlll this spring, when Keminet was there are no more German soldiers In llelgluai, mid when restitution has been made lor the crimen against our people." Slmo (hen the furious battles of Ypres took place and tho Germans were ilrhen hack from Mont des Cats. The old monastery was left In peue r.iptiired. and Iho monks departed. The kaiser has made several more rf- forts to find out where his cousin Is Interred, hut to no avail. lie Is tiaurlng njw that If his eol- nnrm?nT?T MATT) TRTBTJNE. not he a li it or miss attair. canning or irmts and veg- a study of food values and ol: clothing so as to save etc. in the home; plans to organization for efficiency as well as demonstrations work a success, it is necessary will be withdrawn for demon of great concern to the many keep house and cook intui instruction.

Tho latest and most excruciating of all Is about to hit tho lCiigllsh people they're go ing to ho put on tea rations! Lord Khondda, tho food eontrollor, has decided that customers beginning July I I must register with retailers for tho purchaso of tea turnout Great llrltain. llo Is considering whether this order should bo accompanied by ono apportioning tho amounts of tea to be sold. In somo parts of tho country the frngrant beverage already is ra tioned, tho weekly distribution In Ihoso places being 1 i ounces per person. If tho rationing Is made na-tlon-wido the limit probably will ho raised to 2 ounces. The prlco is also lo ho fixed at a maximum of Is. Sd. ((!(! cents) a' pound.

MEDFORD, OkTCOON mm hot (liv Gibson Gurdner.) WASHINGTON, June 17. A hard but winning fight is being made by . i.i tlie mninnisirnuon to preserve moor standards during the period of the v. nr. War's necessities, says the presi dent, must not bo the excuse tor breaking down standards of livin; hours of labor, the wage scale, or any of labor's protective measures. These include the right to organ ize nnd to strike, regulation of hours of labor, nnd regulation ot woman and child labor. The beginning of the war say n lrive by certain powerful employers to break duwn labor standards. There wiih a demnnd for the repeal or suspension of eight-hour luws, and effort to make strikes illegal. Against Vninn Movement These interests called for the re moval ofall restraints on the employ ment of children nnd women, urging war's necessities ns tin excuse. Hut the principul drive was against the union movement. The president's answer to these in (crests is found in the now fninons 'Declaration of Prf nciples:,' issued by the war trade conference hoard, hi ginning w ith the recognition of the right of labor to organize and endin: with offieinl sanction for 'a living wage" which will insure "health nnd reasonable comfort." Efforts have been made to defeat the administration policy by erip pling the president's principal agent. his secretary of labor, William K. Wilson. For 12 months the latter has been in a fight for his official life. He has heen surrounded by nil man ner of intrigue whose purpose was to take from his hands the reins of pow er and put them into the hands of some agency more responsive to the anti-lnhor interests. Drives for Kmploycrs One of these efforts took the form of n drive for a "labor ndmiiiistra tcr." Another emanated from the Conn cil of National Defense, in whose membership are sonic of (lie employ ing class who tire not free from sus picion of a "will to profiteer." The council wished to "organize' the labor department with its own helpful members. Also certnin local stnte councils of defense have been active in launch ing drives nguinst Unions. All of which gives point to the news that the national war labor board has begun an inquiry inlo the public snfe ty commission of Minnesota ani has addressed to Governor Hurnipiist, of Minensota, a request for information concerning u certain "proclanintion on industrial relations" which that commission has issued. Minnesota I 'illicit Down One section of the proclamation rends: "That enmioyees shall not ask for recognition of u' union which had not been recognized before the war. "That employers, by n lockout or other means, shall nut try to break no a union which had been recognized before the war. "That employers nnd employees agree ill good faith to maintain the existing stains, in every place of em pSivnient, of n union, non-union or open shop." As this is coiilrarv to the princi ples which hnve been lunde the wink ing basis for the nalional war labor board, this body wants to know hy whose nuthorily these principles tiro laid down. The war labor board, which is In bor's new supreme court, has ample ptwers. Hehind it nre the special war powers of the president ns eotn-muiior-iit-eliicf of the army nnd navy, nnd his power to commiindcer any industrial Iniitcrial, machinery or or gauiazllon needed In win the war.

NT; MONDAY. .TUXE 17. 1918 WASHINGTON, June 17, Unex pected developments In central Si beria, where Czech o-Slovak regiments are gaining apparently marlted suc cesses against the soviet troops, wore regarded -.'. jre today as possibly marking the advent ot conditions In RusBla which the entento. allies have been awaiting as preliminary to the adoption of strong measures to pro- vent the further extension of German control over Russia. Officials have long held the belief that continuation ot German control would terminate In the actual use of Russian soldiers In the German army and for that reason, means have heen sought for tho beginning of a cam paign to restore trio Russian army into active opposition to Germany. ItolslicviKl I'ecd Huns Already, whether under compul sion or because of secret affiliation with Germany, the Bolshevlkl gov ernment has been supplying the Ger man army with food and other neces sities and unconfirmed reports have reached Washington that Russians In considerable numbers already are in tho German military service. Private advices even go so far as to state that by the beginning of noxt year what ever rcniains of the Russian army will he under the German flag, if ef fective steps are not taken at once by the allies to stop concessions which the Moscow government is making to the German demands. History I'nequnllei Tho history of the Czecho-Slovnk movement in Russia as reported to Washington is almost without prece doat in time of war. Many thousands Czech-Slavs deserted from the Aus- tro-IIungarlnn army Into Russia In the early days of the war. They were attached to the Russian army under the sole condition that they should not be obliged to fight their fellow Czech and Slavs still on the Austrian side. When the Rrest-Litov.sk treaty was aiKiiea, incse czecno-siovnks were loft In perilous and peculiar position If they returned to Austria they would be shot ns traitors; yet they could not remain in Russia because of tliotr lack of sympathy with the maximalists' idea of the Soviets, who, moreover, did not want them. They decided to join the entente allies and continue the war against the Ger manic powers. But this was not easy of accomplishment, because the Ger manic powers lay between Russia and the entente armies in the west of Russia. Several thousands of them stnrted eastward along the line of the Siberian railroad, heading for Vladi vostok, whero they hoped to find ships to take them to western Eur ope. Try lo Stop Immigrants Tho Germans soon learned of the eastward movement of the Czech-Sla vaks and upon their demand, the Bol shovlkl government sought to disarm thorn. The Bolshevlkl opposition quickly was resented and ns these Czech-Slovaks were for the most part veterans, they speedily overcome the hntf-organlzed and weakened spirited Bolshevlkl Reds, who stood in their path. Receiving accessions to their ranks as they proa-cssed eastward along the Siberian railroad, they are now understood to ho in possession ot at least, a third of that great artery of! communication and It was learned officially today that they probably wero in a position to dictate terms to tho Bolshevlkl government thru the control which they exercise over the food supplies In Siberia upon which northern Russia Is entirely de pendent. Several thousand of ' the Czech- k. but, nioraKB are now nt Vladivostok, but as ships for tho completion of the Journey to western Kurope are not available, (ho soldiers may become an Important factor In any Intervention which the entente allies may decide to make Into Siberia TO FOLLOW-OIEARY WASHINGTON-, June 1 T.
