TUK ritatcnipnt of engineers of the fcdcnil bureau of mines that the largest deposit of ehromitc or ehronie-iron ore found in the United States lias recently been located in tho Siskiyou mountains oirvr tho Klamath divide Itch a the Blue Ledge mine, has aroused general in terest hi chrome. The subject is of paramount local in terest as the construction of a railroad to the chrome licit would make Med ford the chrome center of America. Chrome raiiks among the most important of war min erals. With out extensive deposits of manganese to the east of the city and chrome to the west, ther is opportu nity for Med ford to become an important factor in winning the war for increased production of both ores is a war es- sential. Chrome is used principally: 1. As an alloy for hardening and toughening steel, used directly m the manuractur'e ot axles, springs,:. gun carriages, automobiles and trucks, tanks and other neces sary munitions of war. 2. As a' heat and acid-resisting lining for steel fur naces. Chrome bricks and chrome ores are used to line furnaces that turn out :M),000,)()() tons of steel per year and there is no known substitute that will not reduce Un capacity of the furnace. For making dyes to color cloth that goes into the manufacture, of soldiers' uniforms and equipment. 4. For the manufacture of chemicals used in the tan ning of leather from which soldiers' shoes are made. tjiirome is rouna in serpentine formation. Jlic ore is heavy and colored dark brown. 'Float is usually found nearby, which is an aid to locating the ledge. It does not occur in veins, though sometimes narrow lenses are found The deposits are usually irregular and frequently discon nected. Before the war, chrome Acw Caledonia and Miodcsia, veal's Asiatic J urkey was also in tlie eastern states were worked out vears ago and the only sources of domestic supply art? the serpentine areas of t-alilorma and Oregon. Chrome has been mined in Josephine county for the past three years and deposits along the Klamath rivei niountains are being opened up but aH of these together are stated to have less ore in covered deposit in the Blue veloped. As ships cannot be spared it is up to the United States and it is the part ol patriotism lor all of us to co-operate with Uncle Sam in the development of chrome deposits. CALLING OUT AN army of five million or more U to be raised at once to wage war upon the kaiser and in order to secure the needed number of men, the administration man-power bill has been introduced calling for the registration of men between the ages of 18 and -15. The proposal lo'iiroil boys of IS does not mean neces starily that tliey are to be taken to the war front, except in case of emergency, hut they will be enrolled and given training which will save much time when they are called. There is little likelihood of the wars being ended within the next two years if it is ended as it should be cntW. by a conitiicic iicrnian t e eat.

The enrollment is the (lei iuan people that America means business and we have the assertion of annv officials at the front that the best soldiers are the boys from 17 to 2 years old. Secretary Daniels recently stated that one-third of the marines are boys under 121. The proportion of enlisted youlhs under age in the regular army and national guard is si ill greater. Since the war started, (ieriuany has called into war service :UKI.",(H) boys under age. hi proportion to popu lation, France has called as many and no one can say that either army linsjnot thereby increased in fighting abilitv.

War bus caused an lncreaKO of crime and tle prafity anions the German people, according to an analysis publi.sli(Ki by the Kerlln Vorwaerts. The papei1 re calls that ut tho beginning of the war, prophets Hpoke of a "nteel bath" In the waters of which the morals oi the Herman peoplf would recuperate. "Sinco August 4, 1914," says the Vorwaerts, "wo have allowed tho blessings of this bath to act on us with steadily Increasing vigor and the result Is a moral condition of health of the German people of whfen the Compilations of criminal statis tics givo convincing reports. These tell us of tho steadily Increasing number of crimes of brutality, and serious crimes against property and a glance at any newspaper confirms the horribly Increasing number of burglaries and robberies in tho cities as well as In rural districts. System atically organized and methodically operating bands of robbers menace continually life and property of 're spectable citizens. "Also honesty of tho latter has suffered a perceptible, 'crack" and here the Influence of tho steel bath is directly proved. We do not fear that we are disclosing any state endangering secret when we an nounce tho fact that at present there probably aro few German subjects left who have not in gome more or lens serious manner violated the ex isting government decrees and laws and made themselves liable to pun ishment." ' Tho Vorwaerts then dwells on the offects of the steel bath on the grow ing generation and cites complaints by the clergy and teachers to show that depravity Is ono of tho results. , TERESTCHENKO SLAIN BY SBVIEI ASSASSIN I'AIilS, Aie.-. 7.

The Ger mans appear to be determined not to permit American engineers to throw bridges across the Vosle and us a result several American officers hnvo bad thrilling experiences. Lieutenant E. F. Mail of California on Tuesday was undor cover with sixty men on the south bank uwaltlng a lull In tho German shelling In order 'to build a bridge. It was Intended to 'build a foot bridge on the founda tions of a bridge destroyed by the Clormans and then to put up a larger structure. Lieutenant Mall, carrying two planks, started out on an explor ation trip by himself. The lieutenant reached the south ern pier just as the German machino j gunners commenced a heavy II.ru. IThls'dld not stop him. Ho tossed one plank into a temporary position and then put the other In place from the south pier to the pier In the mid dle of the river. The enemy fire be coming warmer, Lieutenant Mall Jumped Into tho river and took cover on the north bank. Afterward he re ccssed to the south bank and rejoined his command amid cheers from the soldiers. ' Farther west of Fismes, Major Francis U. Newcomber and Captain James P. Growden during daylight felled a tree across the Vcsle and crossed to tho north bank. There they chopped down another tree whjch fell toward the southern bank. Soon afterwards they hail completed a footbridge with tho tree trunks as stringers. Xewcomber and Growden had gone ahead of the bridge bulld I lug gang to the position and when the gang arrived they found the work well started. The enemy discovered the footbridge soon afterward and subjected it to heavy fire. BUT FEW KILLED WASHINGTON. Aug.
