The TILLAMOOK HEJMT
Makes Clubbing Arrangement With
Offers Unusual Opportunity to Its Reeders -K
MONG our large circle of readers
there are a great many who are in­
terested directly or indirectly in
fruit growing, dairying and other
branches of farming. All of these
naturally wish to keep in close touch with ag­
ricultural activities throughout the state;
and to know about any fight which is being
waged for the measures Oregon farmers
want and against all sorts of schemes that
are detrimental to the people and agricultural
interests of this state.

A unique way of bringing pressure
to bear on the Germans
to end the
war is furnished by a bill introduced
by Congressman Patrick H. Kelley,
of Michigan. For every month the
war continues after the passage of
this measure Mr. Kelley would pro­
hibit for one year the importation of
all goods and materials, of whatever
nature, produced in the German em­
pire and its possessions. Any violation
of the act would be punishable by a
fin? of $5,ooo or imprisonment of two
years, or both.—Banks Herald.
We have, therefore, made a special clubbing
arrangement with THE OREGON FAR­
MER whereby any farmer or fruitgrower,
who is one of our regular subscribers and who
is not now a subscriber to THE OREGON
FARMER, will be entitled to receive THE
OREGON FARMER in combination with
this paper at the same rate as for this paper
alone.
i
. '
This offer applies to all those who renew or
extend their subscriptions as well as to all
new subscribers. If you are interested di­
rectly or indirectly in Oregon agriculture,
do not miss this unusual opportunity, but
send your order in now.

THE OREGON FARMER is the one farm
paper which is devoting itself exclusively
to the farming activities and interests of
Oregon. It has a big organization gath­
ering the news of importance to farmers,
dairymen, fruitgrowers, stockraisers and
poultrymen; and it has the backbone to at­
tack wrongful methods and combinations and
bad legislation, and support honest leaders
and beneficial measures. We are confident
that our readers will congratulate us on otir
being able to make this splendid and at­
tractive clubbing offer.
The day is getting harder for the
slacker—whether it is that kind that
refuses to enlist to protect his own
country or the fellow that can not go,
but fails to support the cause at home
l,y doing his best to give substantial
aid to the boys at the front. The lines
are being lightened and as the war
proceeds the fervor of patriotism is
reaching the
pitch which makes
the nil blood of the true American
citizen simmer with heat when li ir. eye
hits the outlines of a slacker in the
great and righteous fight of the
American people that is being carried
on across the water.—Unipyua \ alley

A. Prosperous Community
PROSPEROUS community is the result of a
great many people in the location being prosper­
ous. If every farmer and salaried man or woman
would place in the bank a part of their incomes and
if every wage earner would deposit a part <»f his
wages, prosperity for this vicinity would be assured.
No financial difficulties could come that would injure
the local credit. The bank is the best place for money
because it is organized and equipped for the safe
keeping of money.

Patriotic Oregon! When informed
that Uncle Sam’s soldiers needed
large quantities of fox glove for med­
ical purposes, and was looking to
Oregon for it, the loyal people of the

quantity and shipped it, at their own
expense, to the Oregon Agricultural
College at Corvallis, that they have
, swamped tlo drying plant. So much
so that Dean Ziefle requests the news
papers of the foxglove districts to in­
form them that they had better dry it
out before sending it, according to in­
structions in circular. One hundred

questions propounded. Mr. Olcott is
the personification of efficiency when
it comes to answering letters prompt­
ly. If anyone has seen any published
reply to these questions the Oregon
\ oler says we would be glad to have
same called to our attention so we can
quote same for the comfort of our
numerous distressed Republican read­
ers.
“Roscbcrg, Ore., Feb. 2— (To the
editor)—As Mr. Olcott is now a can­
didate for governor, I desire to ask
him a few questions and ask him to
answer them in the Oregonian.
“Are you, Mr. Olcott a Republican,
and were you a republican before our
Democratic Governor West appoint­
ed you to your present place?
"If there should be a vacancy in the
Senate of the United States, would
you appoint Mr. West to fill that
vacancy?
“Why do you not resign your pres­
ent position and allow the people to
elect your'ow n successor?
"Does not our constitution say that
your term of office shall be eight
years?
“Do you expect to hold on for ten
in case you arc not elected?
"Did you pay an income tax last
year and the year before?
“If not, why all at once become so
anxious to have the "dear peepul”
know that you want to do your duty?
“Many voters of the state whose
vote you hope to get would be pleas-
ed to have you answer these ques-
tions. We have a right to know some-
thing of the inner life of our would-be
Governors and we shall watch the
Oregonian for your reph."—George
Bartel.
Peace Not Yet Here.
There is evidence that cannot be ig­
nored that the weight of the war is
bearing heavily on the shoulders of
the people of the central empires, and
there are many hints, even from
American official sources, that Aus­
tria might be driven so far by her de­
sire for peace as to break with her
German masters and quit the war. At
the same time there is talk that Bul­
garian and Turkey are growing weak­
er every day and may collapse at any
time. I he air is full of rumors of an
early peace—just how and when and
w hy peace is to come, not being stat­
ed.
It is significant, however, that as
yet there has been no weakening of
the German front. The militarists are
apparently more firmly in the saddle
than ever before and the hungry peo­
ple submit with weakness and docility
to every ukase that conics from the
military leaders. Germany’s demands
are as arrogant as ever, and there is a
report that no one has yet discredited
that Austria’s mild reply to President
Wilson was made with the full know­
ledge and consent of Berlin. With all
the talk of exhaustion and hunger for
peace, Germany is massing men and
guns on the western front.
Are not these tacts significant? Let
us not forget that the Italian armies
were weakened disastrously by an ac­
tive and vigorous peace propogonda
that was followed by a swift and ter-
riffic stroke by the Teutonic armies.
Everyone knows the result of that
stroke—which was preceded by mis­
leading rumors of an early peace.
Let us not permit ourselves to make
the mistake of taking the peace talk
that is in the air so seriously, tier-
many will be defeated—their is neither
doubt nor misgiving about that—but
she will not give up without a final
desperate effort. The spring and sum­
mer will sec some of the hardest fight­
ing of the war, and it would be a mis­
take for the American people to ap­
proach the coming campaigns with
the demoralization idea that peace is
going to be won without a struggle.—

Use a Waterglass Solution Is
One of the Best Mtthods.

Tillamook Title and
Abstract Co.
Surplus eggs, preserved in the
spring, will supply the home with
good eggs in the tall and winter, when
eggs are hard to get and are high
priced.
Eggs to he preserved must be fresh,
and should be placed in tin- preserv­
ing container as soon as possible after
they are laid. One of the best meth­
ods of preserving is by the use of
water glass, a pale yellow, odorless,
sirupy liquid that can be bought by
the quart or gallon from the druggist
or poultry supply man. It should be
diluted in the proportion of l part of
waterglass to 9 pans of water which
has been boiled and allowed to cool.
Earthenware crocks or pars are the
best containers, since their glazed
surface prevents chemical action from
the solution. The crocks or cans
should be scalded ami allowed to
cool before they arc used. A contain­
er holding 5 gallons will accommo­
date 15 dozen eggs and will require
one quart of waterglass.
To Use Waterglass Solution.
Half fill the container with the
waterglass solution and place the eggs
in it. Eggs can In- added from day to
day as they are obtained, making sure
that the iggs are covered by about 2
inches of waterglass solution. Cover
the container and place
it in a cool
place where it will not have to be
moved. Look at it from time to ime,
and if there seems to be danger of
too much evaporation, add sufficient
cool boiled water to keep the eggs
covered. Eggs removed from the so­
lution should be rinsed in clean, cold
water. Before they arc boiled holes
should be pricked in the large ends
with a nc die to prevent them from
cracking.
Limewater Also Preservative.
Limewater also is satisfactory for
preserving eggs and is slightly less
expensive than waterglass. A solution
is made by placing 2 or 3 pounds of
unslacked lime in 5 gallons of water
which has been boiled and allowed to
cool, and allowing the mixture to
stand until the lime settles and the
liquid is clear. The eggs should be
placed in a clean earthenware jar or
suitable vessel and covered to a depth
of 2 inches with the liquid. Remove
till- eggs as desired, rinse in clean,
cold water, and use immediately.

Adulteration of Canned Goods.
------ o------
Action
against shippers of can­
ned souerkraut and other canned food
which are adulterated with excessive
brine or liquid will be taken up by the
United Stales Department of Agricul­
ture. Certain packers of canned sauer­
kraut are putting 011 the market a
product containing
an
excessive
amount of brine for which the con­
sumer pays sauerkraut prices, accord­
ing to a statement from the Bureau of
Chemistry. The interstate shipment of
canned sauerkraut of this quality is
regarded as a violation of the Federal
Food and Drug
Act, a fact well
known to the canning trade, the state­
ment says. Shipment of any canned
food containing excessive liquid like­
wise is regarded as a violation of the
law. Canners generally recognize this
fact, the statement adds, and it is sel­
dom necessary to make objections to
canned goods on that account.
1 he department has announced on
numerous occasions that in packing
foods the cans should be as full cf the
product as is practical for packing
and processing and should contain
only sufficient liquid to fill the vacant
spaces in the can and cover the food.
Toods packed in excessive liquids not
only are a cheat to the consumer and
a violation to the Food and Drug Act
but they cause an unproper utilization
of tin cans as well as the valuable
space in freight cars and other com­
mon carriers.
