COUNTY
COURT
TO
WATCH
FOR
NDIGENTS
Fading Funds Will Be
! , Nursed for Hard Winter
Local Poor Get First
. Call, Is Word.
In unttclpuuun ol a lun liurd
winter, and many culls for fi
imnciul aid,- iho county court has
til a r ted it annual retrenchment
of the Indigent fund, upon which
heavy Inroads have been made
the past six months. - The original j
amount allowed was $25,600, for
the poor farm, hospitalization,
widow's pensions and general in
digent fund.
The county court is now work
ing on n revlslnn downward of the
indigent lift. Few, If any, will be
cut entirely from the Hut. but
the fasH fading fund will he nur
tured, with the strictest economy,
to the end that it will not he ex
hausted when cold weather comes.
Approximately half of the indi
gent fund has been expo tided to
date, and at the present rate it
will he exhausted by October, un
less expenditures urc cut to the
marrow.
The county court holds that
the first consideration should be
extended to home folks, and the
entire list la now composed of
worthy local cases. There has
been a frowning upon extending
financial help to transient indi
gents, of which there have been
many.
A number of petitions for the
establishment of roads in various
parts of the county were con
sidered by the court, including
the GnintH Pass-Hogue River road,
ChangeM eliminating two grade
crossings, and soveral sharp curves
are embodied in the new survey.
The remainder of the morning
session was devoted to the trans
action of routine business, and ap
proving of payrolls and bills for
June.

UNUSUAL PEST, IN
Chauneey Florey now locate!
123 East Main St. Insurance and
Real KstHte. 65tf
Reports huve come to the South
ern Oregon Kxperiment station of
serious damage to tomato, potato,
alfalfa and other crops by cater
pillars which have suddenly made
their appearance In large numbers.
Specimens brought to the station
huvo been Identified by the writer
as the yellow-striped army worm.
They are velvety black on the back
with two prominent and many fine
bright yellow stripes on the sides,
and reddish beneath. They are gen
eral feeder, attacking alfalfa,
truck crops, melons and weeds.
Serious outbreaks are reported to
have occurred in C-iUfornia in 1915,
1918 and 1922.
Plants should be protected
against these caterpillars by a spray
of arsenate of lead, at the rate of
three or four pounds in 100 gallons
of water. Poison bran mash should
bo broadcast about the buses of
plants late in the afternoon or ui
the early even lug. since these pests
normally feed at night.
The poison bran mash contains
the following: 25 pounds of coarse
wheat bran, ono pound Parts green,
one quart strong molasses. The
bran and pari- preen are mixed
togother dry and the molasses dis
solved In about two gallons . of
water. This Is then mixed wl:h
the bran and enough .more water
to make a crumbly mash, but not
too sloppy. .', ' '
Where the caterpillars are com
ing in in large numbers from al
falfa or waste lands, they may no
stopped by a deep trench with the
dirt on the dde finely pulverized.
The caterpillars will gather n
post holes placed about every ten
feet in the bottom of the trench,
and may be killed there. When
the army worms appeaf. immedi
ate efforts must he made to con
trol them, since they can do sori
ous damage in A. short time
This pest may not occur again

New Ford engine gives outstanding acceleration, speed and power
1
without sacrificing reliability or eeonomg
THE GOOD PERFORMANCE of ihe
Ford car, so apparent on every high
way, is due largely to the sound
mechanical design of the engine.
It has outstanding acceleration,
speed and power, yet that is only part
of its value to you. Greater still is
the fact that it brings you all these
features without sacrificing either
reliability or economy.
That is the reason the Ford car
has given such satisfactory service to
millions of motorists all over the
world and has been chosen by so

s&Jnr,
many large companies that keep
accurate cost figures. In every detail
of construction it has been carefully
planned and made for the work' it
has to do.
The 'design of the compression
chamber is an important factor in
the efficiency of the Ford engine. It
is built to allow free passage of
gases through the valves and to thor
oughly mix the fuel by producing
turbulence within the cylinders dur
ing compression. The spark thus
flashes quickly through the whole
fuel charge, resulting in quieter and
more effective engine performance.
Other factors are the direct
gravity gasoline feed, the specially
(designed carburetor, the new hot
spot manifold, aluminum pistons,
chrome silicon alloy valves pf larger
diameter, statically and dynamically
balanced crankshaft and flywheel,
simplicity of fie electrical, cooling,
lubrication, and fuel systems and
accuracy in manufacturing.
