The Fire Department will indicate with the alarm when they have ceased to use the water. OPEN HOSE NOT ALLOWED: The use of an open hose in watering is prohibited, nor shall a nozzle used in sprinkling be larger than " in diameter. WASTE NOT ALLOWED: Water allowed to run waste down sidewalks, streets or gutters as a result of sprinkling of lawn, gardens, or park strips is pro hibited. When any such waste is discovered the water shall be shut off from the premises. LAWN SPRINKLING SYSTEMS: A lawn or garden sprinkling system shall be constructed and operated so not more than twenty (20) gallons of water per minute shall be used in any circuit or battery of sprinkling heads. Not more than one circuit shall be operated at one time. Each circuit shall have a control valve readily accessible to the Water Department Inspector. AIR RAID PRECAUTIONS TURN OFF ALL WATER: Stop all use of water at the sounding of an air raid alarm. In the event of an attack or bombing do not use the water supply for anything except essential purposes until notice from the Water Commission. This notice will be given by radio and newspaper.

Do not attempt to fill bath tubs or reservoirs on the sounding of an air raid alarm or during an air raid.

MEDFORD WATER COMMISSION fice has announced that seed, will be shipped on purity test alone but that germination tests will have to be completed later to obtain complete payment. Fanners whose seed is shipped under this plan will be paid 80 per cent of the price for the top germination of the grade, as In dicated by the official purity test. Additional amounts due will be paid as soon as the of ficial germination test is re ceived. Fire Prevention Is Season's Watchword Prevention rather than cure will be the biggest factor In cut ting down Oregon farm and rural fire loss. This year especi ally care must be taken to safe guard buildings from fire, both by taking due precaution inside the buildings and around houses and barn lots. Organization plans for rural fire fighting are now under way in cooperation with the State Fire Patrol for rural fire pro tection. According to Art King, extension specialist, Oregon State college, nearly one-third of all fires in farm buildings start from stoves or chimneys While most of these fires occur during the winter, greatest dam age Is done by such fires in summer. About one-fifth of all farm dwelling fires are caused by sparks lighting on roofs and in most cases are helped by dry moss or old shingles. We have had some bad fires in hay during the past few years, mostly caused by too much moisture in the hay. Storing hay before it is dry or from rain leaking through a barn roof on stored hay will cause heating and spontaneous ignition. If, because of a wet season such as this is, proper curing and dry ing of hay is difficult, it is safer to stack such hay In the ?i!3 than to take chances by putting rt in the barn. By R. G. Fowler, County Agent, CUCUMBER CROP WILL BE LARGER GREEK KING HERE TO ARRANGE LEASE LEND Baltimore, June 11 Pi King George II of Greece, ar riving here today on a Pan Am erican Clipper plane, said his country was "in the war to stay" and that he would go to Washington to arrange Cease Lend shipments of war supplies direct to great fighting forces.

Taylor, who is be coming a veteran raiser of cu cumbers, finds the routine changed a little this year, con sidering the war and the bugs. The Medford cantonment has brought a heavily increased de mand for pickles, resulting In Mr. Taylor increasing his crop by five acres, he reports. He expects to raise about la acres this year, all of which are planted. However, the unusu ally cool weather has brought some destruction of the young plants by cut worms. Fire Control Camps Set Up by O. and C. In cooperation with the gen eral emergency fire control pro gram, the O. and C. administra tion is establishing two fire con- trop camps, a 10-man camp at Pinehurst, and a 20-man camp at Evans Creek.
