FOR CO-OPERATION EIX1ENR, Ore., June 26. Lane county received congratulations from Secretary of Agriculture Jnrdtne this morning for having the greatest mim bor of successful farmers' co-ojn.ru-tlvo enterprises in Orcfron, m a onn hour session with lending fanners and businessmen of Et'gene at the cham ber of commorco this morning. Mr. Jardlne said he had received reports of Kugone's co-operative work through his brother,' James T. Jar- dine, director of the Oregon experi ment station, who accompanied him on tho trip from Roseburg. "Keep up the good work," tho sec retary said, "co-operative marketing is the only way the farmer can put his business on a profitable basis and hold it. I've been making a study of co-operative work in California and havo found the reason they are suc cessful is because they've used busi ness methods. ' I don't know of any big business today that is being con ducted any moro successfully than that of California agriculture. It's the surplus that's been breaking agri culture everywhere. California is get ting on because they hre merchandis ing products of the soil as Gary is merchandising his steel." Secretary Jardlne was unable to visit tho Eugene Fruit Growers asso ciation plant as he planned, although he discussed it with M. H. Harlow, president and J. p. Holt, manager. Mr. Jardine's party Included his sec retary, F. M. Russell, his brother, James T. Jardlne; W. A. Jensen, exec utive secretary of Oregon' Agricultur al college, J. A. Bexell, clean of the school of commorce at O. A. C, nnd Robert M. Kerr. They arrived in Eugene nt 10 o'clock, made a flying visit to the new Eugene hotel and wenUdirect to tho chamber of commerce. Tho spenker's twenty listeners gathered in a semi-circle around his chair. As ho was presented with a glass of ico-cold milk he said; "Do I understand I am among dirt tar- mers? Let's see the hunds of those who are dirt farmers here." Only two men displayed hands. Mr. Jardlne was then informed that the group consisted chiefly of heads of co-operative organisations, busi nessmen and retired farmers. The fire department wa8 called lust night aboitt 11:30 to answer one of the oddest fire alarms that has been responded to in yonrs. Grass on the lot on the corner of Sixth and Holly streets had been burned during the earlier part of tho day, and when all had been burned, left apparently un noticed an evergreen tree smouldering near Its base. Naturally, as the day wore on the trunk of the tree smouldered moro and more, but it was not until late last night that some unknown person feared for tho tree's safety and promptly phoned in an alarm to the fire station. Due to the efficient work of Dewey Gevans and Taylor Burch, i firemen, the person fearing for the 'tree's safety Is now thankful for its I salvation. . : ' J FIGHT FOREST Fl-ii; AMID SNOW DRIFTS It is not often that fire fighters fight forest fires with deep snow on the ground, but it so 'happened last Wednesday when lightning struck snag near Union Peak in the Crater National park. The snow, which covers the ground at that point is hard and packed, and alj the brush and the frees above it are perfectly dry and combustible',' Several men were sent ' first by Superintendent Thomson to the scene of tho fire which lay beyond steep mountain sides, and when thinking they had it under control they re turned to their camp for food. It was not; long after they had loft when tlVe blaze : again gained ' hend wuy, and this time It -Was necessary to send twelve men to quel the flames. No great loss was realized, as tho fire was in an area which is known hfi'Kh 'Vld bui'n. VOLTS DISTRIBUTED , TO 0. N-G.

There is much to Interest the eye In the vast spectacle of Rome at the pin nacle of her greatness under tho Cae sars, for Noro, played by a maBhlflcent actor, Rinll Jannings, is tho'certtcr of the story of luxury und intrigue. ' . Jannings' great Impersonation of the tyrant, the glorious beauty of Elnna dl Sangro, who is the Poppaea, wife of the emperor .the mob scenes, the games in the arena, the rharlot race,' tho feats of the lions o nthe followers of Christ, the battle between Ursus and tho wild aurochs on whose back Lygla, the heroine," is lashed, the revels in Nero's court, orgies of ' beauty, the burning of the Christians as torches to light tho garden party, tho feaRt of death and tho burning of Homo while the insatiate monster, Nero, strums his lyre and looks on in glee, are some of the exciting scenes. Of calmer nature are the meetings of the Christians In the catacombs and caverns under tho city, where Peter, the Apostle, instructs thorn In the ten-, ots of tho religion of the Christ. Romance is supplied In tho picture by the love of Vlnlclous for J-ygia, daughter o fa conquered king, held as a hostage in Rome. ' The acting is very good through out, with Jannings giving a superb performance of Nero, and the mighty hordes of Romans, countless thronga thnt swarm at the foot of Nero's throne calling for the death o fthe incendiary who burned their homes and city, and again In the arena, where their cruel frenzy of delight at the sufferings and agony of tho Christians Is splendidly done, as tho chiof factors In the per formance.
