Fly spray is something you flirt through the air with the greatest of ease. But the preparation of a fly spray which won't stain, won't dissipate too fast, and will kill flies is a complicated business. It requires the help of scientists and a million flies year. That's why we run a fly farm. www The trick is to get the exactly right balance of atomizing oils, aromatics, and pyrethrum the extract of a flower which gives Mr. Fly his comeuppance. Like people and flies pyr ethrum shipments vary. Con stant regulation is necessary. Each adjustment for variation means new tests must be made on flies. w The supervising entomolo gists an exacting clan in sist on laboratory precision. Tbe flies must be five days old no more, no less because that's when they're most spray resistant. And no penitentiary has a more scientifically con structed lethal chamber. www In that chamber flies are ex ecuted by the million and at the height of their power to make sure something de signed to protect you and yours from disease really does so, and a million flies can't be wrong ! Those flies are, in fact, a million be-winged guinea pigs- Standard Oil Company of California NOW WE CAN TAK -ADVANTAGE Of -ALL T MONDAY BARGAINS Don't sacrifice the excellent values in thing you need, because washing and ironing eat up your Mondays and other days through the week. We have a type of service for every family.

P) Klamath county's relief program can go on unhindered by the state relief committee's rigid rulings If the De cember outlay can be kept within a $16,187 estimate, in the opinion of Max Dudley, secretary of the county relief committee. Predictions that the financial sta tus of relief In several Oregon coun ties would soon be reduced to chaoa have recently been voiced by author ities In close touch with the relief situation. Dudley feels, however, that the re lief program Is now leveling off, countervailing a 10-year upward trend In all forms of relief payment "Retrenchment is In order," Dudley said. "The state, committee's new policy shows that to be a fact, and It is apparent that all counties will have to get In line." 4 Wool Growers To Meet PENDLETON, Dec. 7 (JP) Between 300 and 400 persons, principally rep resenting the range industry of this section of the state, are expected to gather here January 8, 0 and 10 for the forty-first annual convention of the Oregon Wool Growers association, according to Leo Hahn of Antelope president of the association, who was in Pendleton today. 4 Weather Northern California: Fair tonight and Thursday with valley fogs; little change In temperature; gentle north erly wind off coast.

The orchestra, accord ing to John R. Knight, director, is rapidly attaining a high state of perfection. For several months the organiza tion has rehearsed once each week in an effort to perform the most loved of all symphonies, the Schu bert's 'Unfinished." (This produc tion Is correctly known as "Schu bert's Eighth symphony. It consist of two movements instead of the usual three or four. This accounts , for the misnomer "Unfinished" by which the work Is commonly known.) Great progress haa been made by the orchestra since Its Inception four years ago. All of the members that have been in the orchestra since that time have matured In musical un-: derstandlng as well as In years. The ' personnel has gradually changed un- 1 til It now Is In no way a children's j organisation. ' One-half of the players are 18 years of age or older, many of them being seasoned musicians. This change has occasioned dropping the word "Jun ior" from the name. However, there la still room for advanced young peo ple In the orchestra. Ability only Is the requisite for membership. With the aid of the Zonta Inter national club of Medford, the or chestra will become self-supporting through funds raised at the conceits by ticket sales, rummage sales, etc. All funds are directly spent for the orchestra. There are no salaries. As time goes on the Southern Ore gon Symphony orchestra will con tinue to make progress as it has In the past and will reap recognition as fast as It la merited. . 4 BTJCttCNE.
