Whether shortage of vitamins has any bearings on that I don't know, but I urge you, old tim er, to get your optimal ration of vi tamins every day. even If you Just feel old. Don't get quoer notions about It, tho. So far as I know, vita min D neither causes nor cures hard ening of the arteries. It has been estimated that the yolk of an egg a day will provide enough vitamin D for an adult, but It would require the yolks of nearly a doz-m eggs tor provide enough for a baby or young child. The fetus demands still more calcium than the adult, and be ing a parasite takes the calcium It demands from the mother's tissues If necessary. Therefore the prospective mother must take enough vitamin D to In sure metabolism of all the calcium and phosphorus the developing fetus demands and then some for her own use, else her teeth, bones and tissues generally will suffer the consequen ces.

It Is now the gen eral practice to give the expectant mother a dally ration of flsh-ltver oil. or of one of the Irradiated sterols thruout pregnancy, and then to con tinue giving the baby a dally ration of vitamin D. from the age of a month up to the end of the first year. Perhaps the most satisfactory way to Insure a child an adequate ration of vitamin D Is by feeding the child a quart of vitamin D milk dally.

QUESTIONS AM) AV8WTRS Htlll Holy I belong to the "holy fright" class Weighing 122 pounds, 68 Inches tall last summer I found a doctor who was progressive enough to give me Insulin. Received 10 units three times a day for 2 months. At the end of that period I had gained Just a quar ter of a pound. How do you like that? (M.C.W.j I am 25. and In good health Answer Perhaps by now, without the Insulin, you would have wafted straight up to heaven. Must have been a catch in It somewhere, but at this distance I can't surmise Just what was the matter. Maybe you were short on vitamins. Maybe the insulin was inert. The great majority of poor Bklnny geeks put on poundage with Insulin treatment. Never Trouble Trouble Till Trouble Troubles Vnti General examination last January showed everything o.k. except crevlx tear, which I had when my only child was born ten years ego. My doctor says he never mends these tears at time of confinement and advises I wait till menopause. Mother insist I see another dlctor . . (Mrs. W. F.) Answer If everything la o.k. why look for trouble? If you have any symptoms or any complaint, discuss It with your phyetclsn. Moat women have some degree of laceration of the crevlx at childbirth. Such lacerations heal spontaneously if the woman rest for a week or more after deliv ery and avoids douches or other In terference with the normal healing process. (Copyright 1935. John F. Dllle Co.)

KERR'S SUCCESSOR AT HELM SEPT. 1, MARKS DECLARES Comment on the Day's News By FRANK JENKINS THIS Interesting paragraph appears In the news: "The Waleys entered nonchalant and amused pleas of not guilty to the charge of kidnaping George Wey erhaeuser and of conspiring with fu gitive William Mahan to use the malls to defraud George's father of the ransom sum." Here's hoping the Jury will be equally nochalant In rendering a ver dict on the evidence. IT sounds heartless and horrible to say It, but It Is to be hoped that the hangman does his duty efficient ly, If not nonchalantly, when the proper time comes. Kidnaping is a heartless and hor rible thing not something to be nonchalantly laughed off. 4 A NAZI munitions plant blows up at Relnadorf, near Berlin, and as these words are written It 1 es timated that hundreds have been kill ed and thousanda Injured.

THIS dispatch comes from Salem: "The state liquor control com mission today turned over 9150,000 to the state relief committees from Its license and revenue receipts.

Well, here's one oase at least where liquor has brought relief to some body which Is unusual enough to be news. rIS dispatch from Portland Is sig nificant: "Oregon's Governor Martin and picketing lumber striker appeared on the verge of a showdown tonight on the question of constitutional au thority." IP there Is a showdown and If out of It comes a sane and reasonable policy regarding strikes, I, will be sn exceptionally good thing for EV ERYBODY. A sane and reasonable policy re garding strikes, In this humble writ er's opinion, would be something like this: Every worker who doesn't want to work for the wages offered has the Inalienable right to QUIT HIS JOB whenever he want to. Every worker who want to work has the inalien able right to GO ON WORKING as long a he wants to. It is the business of the state. through Its police authority, to see that BOTH RIGHTS are protected.

Mitchell, have opened up new workings and cleaned out the old levels to the extent of a mile or more until we feel that we have a real mine, which now seems safely des tined to attract more attention and more greatly contribute to like devel opments In Oregon than any other one Influence. It is the one out standing Illustration In the state of the mining success which may be solidly built upon former failure and let us hope, as greatly contribute to the general prosperity. Plans More Labor 'Besides the creation of two widely separated mines on our nearly 400 acres of that mountainside overlook' ing Medford. we have uncovered sev eral other seemingly Independent veins In the half dozen levels upon which work la being vigorously push ed by two shift, which we expect to Increase to three in the near future. These various ore shoots are from a few feet to thirty feet in width, the best of all of from ten to fourteen feet at the very bottom, nearly 1000 feet below the apex. This vein Is opened up by two shafts already sunk over 100 feet each on milling ore. from the bottom of the No. 18 level. This level Is In ore assaying from a few dollars to over S100 per ton In a goodly proportion of Its length of over 2A00 feet. This Is what I call the lower mine. The upper mine, so far opened by a tunnel of 500 feet, on a vein of $5 to (20 ore, from five to seven feet thick, Is also very promis ing snd provides nearly half of our milling capacity. We have built a fairly good road from this opening down to the mill, over a mile distant, OJid which Is now being Improved for better hauling during the wet winter months. "Between these two mines were about half a dozen other levels op ened In the early days, which are be ing connected with No. 18 by up raises and, besides a tremendous vein In No. it tunnel, are here and there revealing substantial reserves of mill ing ore. The No. 11 vein la from 20 to 40 feet In width of low grade ore. which Is expected to be more largely utilized In the future, when large scale operations and a larger percent age of recovery of values make It feasible. We have connected the No. 11 level with the mill by a modern tramway of 1500 feet. When, aa in Alaska and elsewhere, we can reduce our total costs of mining and milling from about (4 per ton to half that figure, upon which our experiments never cease, you may expect to hear great thlnga of No. 11. New Equipment. "The 100-ton dally capacity mill, situated Just below the lower or main mining level. Is equipped with the latest and most efficient machinery obtainable. It has been so planned and built that we can double Its ca pacity with only a fraction of its original cost. This we. of course, have In view for the near future. Our great problem has been the recovery of val ues. From on average recovery of about 85 per cent, we have steadily Improved In the last four months to 85 per cent and we have high hopes of reaching from 90 to 95 per cent In the near future. This overcoming of metallurgical difficulties alone makes possible the mining of thous ands of tons of ore heretofore un profitable. Thus has a silent, obsolete wreckage of an old mining venture been given new life, at an outlay of several hundred thousand dollars. In the last two years. AU this through the Indomitable courage and enter prise of Herbert G. Myers, president of Northwest Brokers, Inc., of Boise. Idaho, who deserve all praise for their never-say-dle' devotion to the project whose success means so much to Ore gon." First Interest In 18:8. "I commenced absorbing Informa tion and doing a lot of mining ex ploitation here aa far back as 1878. Then we could come by rail from , Portland only as far as .Roscburg thence staging It to Redding, which was as near as the Southern Pacific approached from San Francisco. I had to go Into these things somewhat deeper than many others, because I was the advance agent for Jay Gould and my reports were to a consider- able extent the basis for some exten- i slve railroad building he had In view. ! Having seen much real scientific. large scale and successful mining In Utah. Colorado, Idaho and Montana, I found no difficulty in pitching such a high key In my reports to Mr. Gould on the mining prospects In southern Oregon as I would hate to see In print now. I fear he would have cur- tailed his railroad construction quite 1 a bit, could he have foreseen the out- i come. I naturally took it for granted i that any country that could show i such almost unbelievably rich out- Importance of the Laboratory Allhotiiih the urine is nhsolntcly olear, it may i-ontain albumin which I'lin be indicative of Urisfht's Disease.

"However, I should aay right here that I was much more Interested In the copper deposits near Happy Camp and In the Illinois valley and the huge timber resources hereabouts, on account of the much heavier ton nage they offered, than In the gold mines. To this end I made prelimi nary surveys for quite an Important branch system, taking In Applegate valley. Medford. lower Klamath river and the Klamath Falls country, this last part which I took so much pleas ure In building many years later. Not Mlne-Mlnded. "But after those first flush days real mining here got off to an awfully bad start, from which it has never recovered. That is why Oregon la not 'mlne-mlnded' and has never gone at the Industry seriously like the states Z have mentioned. Mineralogists tell us that this gold all comes from the bowels of the earth; that, as It was forced upward through the veins and crevices near enough to the surface to encounter the action of the ele ments, deposits were generally rich. Hence the pockets, which here in Jackson and Josephine counties, were so often so fabulously rich, and tho material which held them so decom posed that reclaiming the gold, either on the mountains or down the gulches into which It gravitated, was so easy that everybody waa spoiled for anything like legitimate mining beyond the depths of pick and shovel, or the laborious hand windlass and the mere gophering in short tunnels. "Thus there was no such thing as mining In the early rush days. Farm ers, cowboys, fruitgrowers, pioneer bankers.' everybody, rushed In, dug here, there and everywhere and many scooped up from the rich surface de posits fortunes almost overnight. Scores of them pounded out their re wards in hand mortars. Others se cured theirs with the rude arastras and a few even went so far as In stalling small stamp mills which, of course, could only recover a small proportion of the values, when sink ing reached the real permanent de posits. I can still see those chunks of decomposed quartz from the Opp mine in Banker Beekman's windows at Jacksonville, which were a part of tne sioo.ooo he took out of the mine In an unbelievably short time. The thrill of those nuggets and stringers of pure gold which held the frag ments of quartz together was enough to turn anyone Into a gold digger. That fascination, you know, prevails to tnia day at Jacksonville, where some streets and many back yards are being mined as of yore. But those who were thus lrreslstably fascinated were Irretrievably spoiled for the honest to goodness effort and ex penditure of cold cash necessary to build up a real mining Industry on the strength of the refractory ores which invariably followed at shallow depths. It all goes to show that you don't Just strike a big mine. You have to dfg hard and deep to make It. like any other business. When they could no longer rob mother earth so easily they moved on. while those who were disappointed generally settled down to cultivation of the fertile val ley soil or engaged earnestly in the business lines common to a new coun try. Thus was crnited one of tho most beautiful towns in America here at Medford. Had those who abandon ed mining expended the same effort and money there as they did In other lines, their success probably would have been even greater. Few Hove Faith. "A comparatively few who aigued that the precious nvitnl having origi nated at depth and at:l existed in quantities on the many well defined veins, persisted In flowing the lat ter down toward the real source of all this golden treasure. Out of their faith and untiring efforts we still have the two outstanding quartz properties of Oregon right here. They are dolly Illustrating what an un dying persistence and finally Intelli gent application of the best methods of following and of extraction of the ores and recovery of values from their stubborn low grade, refractory con tents will accomplish. I refer to the Greenback and Opp nvnes, the for mer still pounding away on the leaner ores, after a production of some $4,- 000,000 on Its way down several thous and feet, and the latter, after vicissi tudes almost innumerable, down there about 1000 feet, making the best showing in twenty years. "Right here, after almost a lifetime experience in mining and mining states, I hazard the opinion that scores of other properties In southern Oregon might well have been brought up to the stage of the Greenback and the Opp but for a failure of nerve and lack of capital of the mining ele ment and citizens of Oregon generally. Nothing so discourages Investment in any resource or enterprise as the gen eral knowledge that someone has tried it out, and, Gypsy-like, has stamped oiel fan Pablo Sn M6L0t!V.ATjO'n.neT OAKLAND town Centra Completely Renovated - - - and Redecorated RATES With detached bath from, ?5 daily With Bath - . .froniIJ5laily ' FREE " ic KIWM00CW g a rag e SfiTrJcomt SMC DIRECTIONS' TO HOTU Jiay on Wain Highway (San Pablo tvenue) directly to 20th.Streef Tftjxyem&tt" Harry d.ftranf eTTOP over night ai...

Then we must not forget that abandonment of a mining property was often due to the much larger costs of unwise opera tions and other causes than now. For example, an original owner of the Opp handled his ores some six times in the short distance of a mile from mine to mill, where we now handle them only once. Moreover, returns of S20 per ounce for gold formerly meant a loss In many properties, whose low grade ores would now pay handsomely at 35. Need New Spirit. "What we most need Is a thorough rejuvenation of the mining spirit here at home. This means for all hands to "be made to realize the Im portance of the successful develop ment of a few more mines, its Influ ence upon the opening up of others, and Its value to the community gen erally In Its liberal payrolls and Its favorable reaction on all other Indus tries and lines of business. The suc cess of one big mine has. In times of stress, put new life Into such cities as Denver, Salt Lake, Butte, Boise, Spokane and Seattle and has stimu lated the consumption of products of farm, field and orchard as nothing else can. More Interest must be mani fested In mining generally than is shown by one of Oregon's otherwise finest histories of about 2000 pages, which devotes less than a dozen lines to the industry, without mention of Oregon mines, A funny thing about It Is that it is a mere allusion to the injury to sheep raising here, through the stampedes of flockmasters and herders from Oregon to California mining camps, thus boosting the in dustry down there Instead of advanc ing it here where It was the real par ent of all others."
