TRAFFIC MENACE Stock running loose on the high ways of southern Oregon, outside of herd law districts, are becoming a problem ,to the authorities and a menace to the traffic. The Crater Lake highway, north of the Eagle Point district, la one of the favorite - ranges of cattle and horses, and within the past ten days the state police have been called upon to go out and kill' a maimed horse or cow that came out second best with 'an auto or truck. It Is claimed that motorists are kept to busy watching out for a steer they have no time to gaze upon the scenic beauties. It Is further charged that the horses, of which there are quite a few. He down upon the pavement to dose, and blend in so well with the color of the pavement that the driver does not see them in time, resulting In quite a mess. A truck ran over a colt last Thursday night, and any number of fenders have been crum pled by smashing Into the back end of a cow. Just what to do about travel ar teries being made a range Is the puz zle.

Copies of the unemployment relief bill are expect ed to arrive this week from Wash ington. D. C, from Senator Stelwer, and the district attorney has been Instructed to point out the Oregon law bearing upon the subject. zUnder the Oregon law, It la said, the county court cannot obligate the county in any sum in excess of S5000. except when an emergency exists.

A tall brass lamp, bearing mlna turea of the crescent moon, the royal peacock, and other forms significant In the life of -the Egyptian, before which a shah stood in reverence while the oils burned slowly a lock of his loved one's hair, conjuring her heart forever his, has been brought to Medford by John Kerenlan of Seattle, formerly of this city. An Aremnlan by birth. An American by many years and habits, and a w.vr of rugs. i And the lamp la out of oil, elec trified In keeping with the modern trend, "and modern youths need ex pect no magic from It," Mr. Korenlan said yesterday, after placing the lamp In the Holly theater to be displayed for two weeeks with other furnishings which knew the luxury that was Egypt's 100 years ago. Towering high above the heads of the populace, to those who can In terpret the intricate carvings of Its perfectly molded brass, the lamp con veys the thoughts of Omar Khayyam and many another eastern poet and philosopher, but tells no other tales of harems it has known. Above the standard In the bottom of which. Incense waa burned, the lamp proper Is enclosed in glasses of several colors, green for holiness, blue for friendship, red for affection, and above all other decorations are ,he crescent moon and star, which Mr. Korenian said yesterday, explaining the presence of the star In all the lavish furnishings, reveals a Chris tian maker, under Mohammedan rule. Near the lamp In the Holly en trance stands a royal chair, Inlaid with mother of pearl In the helghth of regal splendor. The high back, which la almost a solid mass of lead, brass and mother of arl, all Inlaid In a design of equlslte workmanship, GETS HARD JOLT Harvel Jones, formerly of Sams Valley, now of Medford, was sen tenced to pay a fine of $100 and to serve 30 days In Jail by Judge Glenn O.

Whan Traveling WHEN you are away from home with the children, remember Kellogg's Corn Flakes. You can always get Kellogg's at ' any hotel or restaurant. And what could be better than a bowl of healthful Kellogg's and milk? So easy to digest. So wholesome. Made by Kellogg in Battle Creek is topped with two white doves of peace. The star also makes Its ap pearance. No paint, no nails or other modern methods of workmanship have been untlllzed In construction of the chair. A desk, of royal design, made for Hodge Render Bay, for the favorite of his harem, who later became his bride, rivals the lamp In beauty and legend. . Seven years, seven months and seven days were required for Its completion. Many kinds of woods have been worked Into the rich pat tern, which covers each little knob of the desk, its back, legs and the chair In which the harem beauty sat to pen eplstlles. To illustrate the time required for its making, Mr. Korenlan said there are 6200 pieces of wood in one leg of the resk. The pattern Is brought out through the use of dark and light woods In their natural colore entirely, no paint or varnish being applied to the desk. Its making was kept secret until the heart of the girl was won by Hodge Render Bay. through the burning of a lock of her hair at the magic lamp, which Mr. Korenlan accredits with breaking many eastern hearts. When the girl of his choice died Kender Bay sent the desk to his very dear friend, Cardinal Azarlan at Con stantinople. When the cardinal died 41 years ago the desk waa sent to Jerusalem, where It was purchased by an 'American collector and brought to the states 28 years ago with the lamp, the royal chair and another of less decorative design, but equivalent In beauty, now on display at the Holly. They were all made at Damascus, Mr. Kerenlan said, by workmen who were Judged and Judged themselves not by the financial worth of their products but by their beauty and perfection, disregarding all clocks in their supreme effort to create some thing of beauty to leave be&lnd them.

Paving may be better than plowing for your back yard garden. Growing vegetables in "cracks" in a garden pavement Is the latest ex perimental Idea of the department of agriculture. It may have been In spired by th persistence of grass that grows up through the cracks In old brick and cement sidewalks. The garden "pavement" is really a mulch made of concrete blocks, extension of the old paper mulch Idea. A mulch covers all the sur face of the soli except the space where the crops are grown. Other mulches of iron, cinders, zinc and aluminum are being tried. The experiment still Is In Its Infancy, but In tests so far beans, pc&a, straw cleansing lather gently washes away pore-dogging Impurltlea clears and freshens dull aklns to healthy radltnce.

The concrete mulch consists of blocks a few Inches thick and nine to 12 Inches wide, willed cover the ground, with open spaces between them one and one-half Inches la width. The permanent mulch control weeds and conserves moisture. It also warms the soil earlier In the spring ad keeps It warm longer In the fail, because the blocks absorb the heat of the sun. Rain entera the ground along the rows between the blocks.
