The mutiny was suppressed after a battle in which machine guns and artillery wore freely used. SEEKS TO PUT RIVAL IN ARMY BY DRAFT The appeal board for the second district of Oregon considered an ap peal by a drafted man from Lane county nt its meeting last night, set ting aside temporarily its action In advancing the registrant to class one, becaust it was alleged that he had been spending his time joy riding after having been given a deferred classification as a farmer. The registrant appeared before the board in answer to the charge. He came with witnesses and his employ er, who brought a time book as evi dence that he had been working faithfully on the farm. The registrant stated that he was willing tc go Into the service, hut not just now. He told the board that he had a rival for the hand of his best girl, and asserted that the man who had complained to the hoard wanted to have him drafted so that he him self might win the girl to whom both have been paying attention. The appeal board decided to per mit the registrant to remain at home on the farm until the crops have been harvested. Eugene Guard. NO PROFIT FOR W. A. Gates returned from Salem yesterday after having made arrange ments for the salo of Fordson trac tors In Jackson county. This is the long-expected tractor promised by Henry Ford but has been delayed be cause of supplying them in large numbers to France and England to aid in war work. Mr. Ford has requested all dealers to handle the tractor thruout the du ration of the war for the bare cost of bundling and the C. E. Gates Auto company will follow this policy on all tractors sold In Medford thruout the war. Tractors will be delivered to the ranchers at a price which will just about pay the selling expense. A num ber of the first delivery have already been spoken for and the allotment of 50 tractors to Jackson county within the next ton months will hardly supply tho demand. The patriotic motive which has prompted Mr. Ford and his dealers to deliver these tractors without ma terial profit will doubtless prompt the tractor owners lo make his trac tor serve as many people as possible. The first tractor will arrive in Medford In about two weeks. Tl Mill TAKIS, July I'J.

Tbat's a question which puzzles many of us. We all know that we must "go easy" on sugar, as it Is our duty to conserve. And candy contains some sugar. So how can wo know how much to eat. In the first place, we must not forget that our system needs SOMK sugur, and this the Food Administration n;. quizes. We must remember, too, that some people like Cc!:- rv.ar In coffee, somo In fruit and In other ways. If you like yours in the form of candy, eat some enndy as much as the Rood Adminis tration permits a certain share is yours. The Food Administration is keeping in close touch with the sugar situation and ulloting lhe candy manufacturers as much as it can see its way clear to allot. Everyone is being atked to save on sugar, and the candy manu facturers have been asked to save half of all they formerly used. Hut tliat which is being given them is being given them because the Food Administration recoirnlzes candy as a food and is willing to permit it to lie made and sold. It al?n knows that the candy making industry is a big national Industry and that it Is lhe duty of everyone to help keep industries going at home at tho sanio time that we are winning the war. So the candy manufacturers are permitted to make a certain amount of candy and offer it for sale to you. Hut the Food Ad ministration says how much that will be. When the sugar is used up, no more can be had. So you know that the candy you see on snlo Is there with the permission and the sanction of the Food Administration. And that randy you can enjoy to the fullest. And y while you cat It, or send It away to a soldier, if you prefer, you may know that every pound is high In food value good, whole- some food, supplying the system with carbohydrates (fuel for tho body). In normal times the candy industry uses only S per cent of the sugar used per capita in this country. Right uow this amount has been cut squarely In two.
