Praise Efficiency ,"
The operation in Ashland was
handled .entirely by Ashland
Elks headed by Sid Reed and
Mrs. H. S. Ingle. The two lead
ers of the Red Cross county pro
gram, Mrs. Leston Huntley and
Mrs. Ward Hammond, today paid
tribute to the efficiency of the
blood center there. They said
that enthusiasm is so high in
Ashland that Medford will give
up its March bloodmobile visit
in favor of Ashland which will
call on donors there again March
12. . , ...
To make up the lost date, Med
ford will hold its first two-day
operation April 15 and 16. Lady

meeting day to accommodate the
blood center in the Elks lounge.
The center in Rogue River was
operated, cooperatively by Mrs.
Ed Brace of Rogue River and
Mrs. Paul Thompson of Gold
Hill. Both communities provided
donors.
Barrels of Corn
Hot Always Same
Richmond, Va. (U.R) The
statistician at the Virginia De
partment "of Agriculture some
times wishes that he'd taken up
some other line of work.' .
Henry M. Taylor says Vir
ginia's farmers estimate their
corn yields in- "barrels. That
would be all right if they all
mean the same thing.
But they don't.: Farmers in
the - Shenandoah Valley, mean
one thing when they say "bar
rel," farmers in eastern Virginia
mean a unit much larger. In be
tween the two regions is a no-man's-land
and a statistician can
only guess what a farmer means
when he sends In his crop re
Port, i
Taylor is philosophical about
the situation, however. He re
members the prohibition days
when farmers sometimes estim
ated their corn in gallons.
HITCHCOCK TILES
Salem-U.R) State Sen. Phil
lip S. Hitchcock of Klamath Falls
filed Thursday for reelection as
senator from the 17th district,
Crook," "Deschutes", Jefferson,
Klamath and Lake counties. He

ination May 16.
