OREGON AGRICULTURAL COL
LEGE, Corvallis, June ' 17. Did you
ever hear a potato snore? or an apple
sneeze? or a geranium breathe heav
ily? A geranium plant In a glass case
at room 213-218 agricultural building.
Is causing a great deal of comment by
its heavy breathing during Farmers'
week.
A glass tube connected with the
case containing the flower empties
Into a trap filled with crystal clear
or rum hydroxide.--As the flower takes
a 'deep breath it, can be plainly seen by
the bubbles in the trap. As the breath
4s liberated it combines with the solu
tion, making it milky white in color.
Two apples are almost out of breath
in inother jar. It is set in a glass
tray filled with water, and as the ap
ples have breathed most of the oxygen
from the jar, the water has risen in
side nearly covering them.
The exhibit is made to demonstrate
beyond a doubt that plants really
breathe like human beings.

It's pure in the baking. Cal

sweetest and most palatable of
nourishing foods.
It has more than the ordinary
leavening strength. You use less
of it. That's one reason it is the
most economical of all leaveners.
Another reason is it is sold

U
ASHLAND, June 17 We want some
good warm, sunshiny days in order tit
ripen up the cherry crop, for this fruit
will be in demand on Monday, June 2".
when 2nit or mora of the owners ami
managers of principal building's thru
out the country, including big hotel
properties, manufacturing concerns,
and business blocks, will pass through
Ashland on their way north, touring
the Pacific coast region from southern
California to Seattle and probably
Hritlsh Columbia. Tor the time being
the "Cherrian Day" of the Willamette
will he transferror to Ashland. The
old exhibit building at. the depot will
come into lis own again for the time
being. Incident to this cherry festival
event, In connection with which a bevy
of Ashland girls will serve the fruit to
the tourist visitors. Supplementing
this distribution, the chamber of com
merce plans a welcoming committee
which will extend the glad hand to the
pleasure Jungeters in extending greet
ings to the big company of easterners.
The irrepressible Jesse Wiuburn has
been appointed chairman by Ihe'diam
ber of commerce of the Fourth of July
parade committee, un assignment that
means some energetic work, as the ap
pointee is not only a hustler, but his
purse strings are open when circum
stances indicate that" financial aid
should be forthcoming. It is Wlnburn's
Idea to make the celebration here n
county event, instead of merely a local
one, and his efforts will be along that
line, similar to the picnic event for
the young folks of the county, recently
given in their behalf at his well known
camp surroundings up the canyon. Of
course the Fourth of July observance
will eclipse any ordinary picnic outing,
and extensive plans are being made
accordingly.
To he exact, the sum of two thou
sand dollars and thlrty-fivo cents is
the exact amount which Ashland sub
scribed for Chinese and Near Hast re
lief at the last, campaign drive hero
in. behalf of famine sufferers. Formal
receipts have arrived covering these
remittances, and conveying thanks for
the generous supply of clothing also
forwarded. There will probably be
further requisitions, especially from
the "Near East" so termed, as the bell
raising Greeks and Turks still keep
on the warpath, not having become
signatories to the socallcd armistice.
When Givln Butler purchased nnd
had erected in Litbia park the statue
of Abraham Lincoln, as a memorial to
his stepfather, Jacob Thompson, pio
neer of UiIb Bection, ho set the pace
as an 6xntnple for other individuals
and organizations to follow. Now tho
suggestion is being made that the Red
Cross honor Clara Burton In like man
ner, and that the Women's Christian
Temperance Union pay the tribute of
love nnd affection to the memory of
Frances Wlllard, these tributes being
added to the Lincoln statue and sol
diers memorial tablet in the park.
Many still remain of the opinion that
the soldiers monument, recently un
veiled in Ashland cemetery, should
have .been placed amidst tho park
environment. With thoso accessions,
together with tho Carter memorial
fountain on the plaza, It would only be
a question of time when tho "Granite
City, as applied to Ashland, should be
changed, to the '"Monumental City"
designation.
At n recent meeting of the Auxiliary
club it was voted that Individual mem
bers should contribute to the Red
Cross in behalf of a fund which will be
devoted to relief of flood victims of
Pueblo, Colorado. The children's play
grounds In the park have also benefit
ed by the auxiliary's donations.
A reminder Is in order concerning
the Illinois picnic and reunion here on
Friday, June 21, in tho parks. Vl'hls is
a valley affair, and not merely a local
one. Natives of Illinois and long-tlmo
residents of tho old commonwealth,
are all Invited. A program is being
prepared, announcements pertaining
to which will he published later.
MARRIED FOR THE
DURATION OF WAR
(By International News Service.)
ClllCAGO, ' June IB. A new
variety of war romance was re-
vealed here when Harold K. Car-
tor, formerly of the A. K. F
charged Mrs. Margaret Lamar
Carter with having married him
"for the duration of tho war." Ho
sought and obtained a divorce." '
Tho decreo was granted when
Carter offered In evidence a let-
! ter from his wife, which read:
"I would have written you long
ago but it seemed right to wait
until the war was over ,nnd you
were safely through that ex per-
lence. With the end of the war
comes the end of the contract I
entered Into so hastily. I want
to be released from It now. I'll
not live with you again as your
wife."
The Carters met in March, 1917
and were married Juno 21. They 4
parted September 13, 1917. when
Carter went overseas. Ho had
enlisted on tho day war was do-
clared.
nriiLlN. N'o section of Irish public
opinion has endorsed Lord Hugh Ce
cil's latest suggestion of a settlement
of the Irish question. The Cecil plan
included the establishment of nvo
small parliaments, one at Belfast ami
the other at Dublin, with an additional
"House of Instates" of lite members.
Ireland was to have "complete fiscal
autonoipy" and an army of Its own,
but no navy.
The nearest approach to approval
comes from tbo Freeman's Journal
which says that Lord Hugh "has goti
the root of the Irish problem in his
grasp, but he is afraid to go boldly for
the solution without hedging condi
tions." The hedging condition is held
to he tho necessity for l ister agree
ment, nnd this. It Is argued, means the
maintenance of "the t'lster Veto"
which "can always be relied uimiu to
wreck any plan that would satisfy
four-fifths of the people."
The real crux remains In l ister. The
majority in the northeast corner is
attached to the Knglish connection.

and- other leaders of revolt against
British rule. According to the I'lsler
leaders no agreement will ever be pos
sible with tho rest of Island which 1
implies separation from the Itrlllsh!
empire.'
Tbo war pictures which are to be
shown in this city Monday and Tues
day, June 20-21,' at the 1'age theatre,
under the auspices of the Medford
Post American Legion, promise to
give theatre goers a thrill that even
Griffith master productions have been
unable to register.
The name of this great picture Is
"Powder River" for many years
that has been the battle cry of the
cowpunchers of Montana nnd Wyom
ing and when the stolid Prussians and
their allied hosts heard that war
whoop coming from the lusty throats
of the dare devils from tho great
west in tho "big drive" they wore not
only amazed, but. tho grim determina
tion nnd doth-dofylng spirit that
those great divisions possessed caused
them to take to tho tall timhor.
The 91st, 42nd, 32nd and 2nd divi
sions nro all represented in tho re
markable picture these film records
are conclusive proof of tho metal of
western soldiers and shows them from
the time they sailed from American
ports until they suspended their mag
nificent fighting in France.
Picture Scores Hit
Matt Moore nnd Gladys Leslie, who
have the leading roles In "Straight Is
tho Road," tho new Paramount picture
on view at tho Rlnlto theatre this
week, have contributed much by their
artistic portrayal to make that picture
a groat hit. It Is well worth going far
to sec. Last times toony and tomor
row. At! the Page
A delightful icomedy is guaranteed
in "I!rowstCr's 'Millions," with Roscoe
(Fatty) Arbuckle as the star. The pic
ture was presented as a Lasky feature
many years ngri, but never has It. been
so delightfully' prosentcd as in this
now screen ! Version with Fatty ' na
"Monty" Drowsier, tho young million
aire who had tnl spen'd a wnd of money
In a year or forfeit- bis income. A
screamingly funny picture. A sure hit.
And Fatty In his best part to dale.

THE BANE of old age is constipation. The bow
els become weak and unable to perform their
functions without aid. For this purpose only
the mildest and gentlest laxative should be used.
The use of harsh cathartics aggravates the trouble
and makes the constipation worse. Chamberlain's
Tablets are a favorite with people of middle age
and older on account of their gentle action.
