MEDFOKD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDPOUD. OREGON, FRIDAY. SEFTEMBFR 21. 103 1. PAGE FIFTEEN OF BIO APPLEGATE, Sept. 81. (Bpl.) 2n the face of bleak discouragement throughout the long jreara of prohi bition Bert Clute stayed by his Jcb of raising hops. Today he Is one of the foremost growers of southern Ore. gn. and his hop yard at Pernolholme farm is the only one In Jackson county to survive prohibition. "I ' had an Idea that if you stay with anything long enough, sooner or later you will get a break." Thus Mr. Clute expressed the philosophy which led him to plod ahead, even against Indebtedness. "After the country was voted dry, I went out in the field and started pulling the wires to quit the busi ness," Mr. Clute continued, "but I came to the house and told my wife I was going to stay with It. I had an idea that when everybody else quits that Is the time to stay with a thing." So It was by persisting In labor ing through long hours year after year that Mr. clute has been able to enjoy the success that came with the return of beer. Picking of the hops from AO acres of ground was com pleted a few days ago by 225 pickers. This year's yield was good, aithough a check up on the exact production has not been made. Last year'a crop enabled Mr. Clute to spend over 800o buying new equipment and planting additional acreage. Success has not caused this grov.er to forget the advantage of thrift. Lumber was high, so he installed a sawmill on his ranch, and nr. thous ands of feet of pine tlm.:er cleared from his lands, which ot;.:irwlse would have been burned, areitillzed In new buildings. This year he erected a three-story warehouse consU-ung of a cooler, stor age room for bales, and baler room. A baler Is being instated in the storage room, and will operate with a counter weight, w.'.ich also serves as an elevator. Tclo new dry kilns were constructs with a ramp over which the hop" 'ire trucked, eliminat ing the old "levator method. Through this system. 4500 pounds of hops are run in a 24-foot kiln from the field In half an hour. This spring Mr. Clute erected 12 new cabins, electri cally equipped, for his pickers and their families. Next year he expecte to have a , private office on the grounds. Mr. Clute Is a veteran of the hop Industry, having maintained his yard for 34 years. His friends say he has worked 18 or 19 hours a day for a score of years. At the suggestion that he deserves a pension for his hard work, he replied, "No. I give a lot of folks something to cat," and added that the relief system la spoiling peo ple. Lsst summer he took second prize In the state wltli-trls late clus ter varlet. which was displayed among 400 samples at the hop growers' con vention at Salem. The hop grower has everything to fight, Mr. Clute says. Including mil dew and aphis and shipments from foreign countries. Last year England shipped In four million pounds of hops to the detriment of home grow ers. This year's crop was contracted to Hart and Williams for the Pabst Brewing company of Milwaukee. EUGENErflER, EUGENE, Sept. 21. (AP) Eight dry kilns and a large warehouse at the J. W. Seavey hop yards on the McKenzle river near here were swept by flames Thursday afternoon, the fire doing damage estimated at $200, 000. More than 500 bales of hops In the kilns were consumed by the flames which , apparently started from an overheated furnace in kiln No. 4. This yard Is one of the largest In the valley and was established by the Seavey brothers more than 40 years ago. There was about one day's work left In the yards and the crop would hare been harvested. Coming! THE HAPPY KITCHEN Less Work! More Fun! fcA A - A . A ! Aul Russian Trainmen Raise Real Thirst When Shipped Eastward to Siberia MOSCOW ( AP ) More than $100,000 worth ot wines and liquor were lt by breakage on Soviet Union dining cara in the first lx months of the year, according to reportt by trainmen. But Pravda. ofllclel newspaper of the communist party, did some figuring and suggested that the amount of llqiior loet corresponded suspiciously closely to the consuming power of the train crews. Breakage was especially noticeable on the Trans-Siberian express. One oump which the restaurant car sustained In a coupling operation at Irkutsk coft the government 40 bottles of beer, five quarts of vodka, five bottles of cordials, five more of red wine and one container of brandy. The conductor, engineer and headwatter all signed the report. But it failed to persuade Pravda that the tiresome 12-day trip from Moscow to Vladivostok had not moved the trainmen to relieve the monotony by an occasional nip at government expense. 41 PORTLAND, Sept. 21 (AP) Forty- one Civilian Conservation corps camps will be In operation In Oregon this winter, two more than were used during the summer season.

A A A J''JJ. LOS ANGELES. (UP) Facing al most certain death four months ago as a sufferer from calclnoa, a disease that has stricken only 32 other per sons In medical history, Trudy von Ravens be rp, pretty 10-year-old high school graduate, today virtually as recovered and looking for a Job. When her case came to the at tention ot the orthopedic clinic at General hospital four months ago, the girl's limbs were encased partly in stony shells and the area of calcifi cation seemed to be Increasing. A diet deficient in calcium, pre scribed on the theory that too much lime would Increase the stony ac cumulation beneath her skin, failed to help Miss Ravensberg. Endocrine specialists then took charge of the case and a series of metabolism tests were made. A hormone of the parathyroid gland, which governs the amount of calcium In the tissues, was prescrtb ed. although physicians were hesitant rs it was known to rob the bones of calcium, their most essential element. To counteract this, a diet of milk, orange Juice, and other foods rich In lime content was ordered. This seemJgly paradoxical treat ment had the desired effect and phy sicians have told the girl, who four moths ago was slowly turning to stone, that she can again go to work. The only trouble, according to the girl, Is that she can't find a Job. DR. TAYLOR PLANS Dr. Arthur S.

TO GET CLEANING HERDS Provisions of the Jones-Connelly bill passed at the last session of con gress provide Oregon dairymen with the first opportunity they have ever had of ridding their herds of animals afflicted with Bang's disease (con-, tsgeous abortion) while being paid indemnities against excessive loss, say ofriclala of the dairy department at Oregon State college. This law, which considers the era dication of this disease to be a public health measure, ts being administer ed by the bureau of Animal .ndustry of the United States department of agriculture, in cooperation with the sum college and the state depart ments or agrlculure. In Oregon the work will be under the leadership of Dr. S. B. Foster, rep resentative of the B. A. I. In Port'and. Plans are now completed to cover the state county by county, giving farm ers an opportunity to sign the con tracts with the government under which they will be paid for disposing of reacting animals. Under the new federal plan. tho.ve who sign the contracts will agree to have their herd tested free of charge, and. In case reactors are found, will dispose of them and clean up the premises In an approved manner, and will continue the testing at Intervals after the cleanup la made. In return the government agrees to have the animals appraised that are found to be- reactors and to pay the difference within certain limits be tween such appraised value and the amount the animal brings for slaugh ter. The amount of cash the govern-1 ment will add to the "salvage" value 1 of an animal la $20 for a grade and! $50 for a purebred. J The blood samples will be tested In the laboratories at Oregon State col lege where veterinarians many years ago worked out one of the first suc cessful methods of controlling this disease In dairy herds.
