J. 15-41 j ' High School Pupils j to Protect Property 1 The boys and girls of the senior high' H'hool, or rather the students of that; institution, .have resolved themselves' into a body for the protection of thej school property and for keeping the' high school building in a proper condi tion of neatness and cleanliness on the interior. Not that it was in a condi- j tion opposed to clearness, but there ' had been a growing disposition to leave papers and parts of the noonday lunch; around the building and a growing carelessness as to marking and defac-j ing the furniture. Xow this will nil be taken care of, as at a meeting this week, the students' organized and appointed committees of boys and girls, who will make it their j special business to see that no paper 1 or trash is left In the building and that no one defaces any of the interior, furnishings. Shutting Off Supplies From Germany Causes Shortage of Drug Supplies Tu the average citizen in Salem there is not a very close connection between headache powders and the war in Ku rope. But the relationship becomes a reality not only in the price now paid for headache ponders, but ninny other drugs in common use. All chemicals like bismuth, phennce tine, and salol and others which ure ingerdients of headache powders have advanced fully 1.000 per cent in price. The Germans supplied the world and were the only manufacturers, and just at present, Germany is not shipping to this country. Quinine that sold for 50 cents tin ounce before the war. now retails for from $2 to $2.50 an ounce and is very scarce. That useful article, castor oil, comes just twice as high as it did before the fatal August 4, 1!H4, when Eng land declared war on Germany. The 10 cent bottle of glycerine is not as large as it used to be. In fact, the dime bottle in the days of two years ago is just half as large as It used to be. Kp.wm '.alts have also taken the sky ward route in prices.. Instead of buy ing a pound for 10 cents, it will re quire money to the amount of 25 cents to buy a pound and it is becoming more scarce, every day. Blue vitriol, worth 10 cents a pound, before the war, is now selling in Sa lem for 30 cents a pound and even the common alum, that formerly was retailed for 1!) cents a pound, has ad vanced to 25 cents. Salt petre, so necessary in the manu facture of explosives, is naturally in I great demand w ith the munition plants, land this accounts for the advance in price of fiom 15 cents a pound to (id cents. . Borax may be included in the useful articles, advancing from 15 cents to 25 cents a pound. j But it is in the bromide class that the I greatest scarcity exists, as bromide I potassium has advanced from 10 cents un ounce to i an ounce and nronncie soda is worth .-just two times as much as it was before the war. If the 10 cent bottle of castor oil is not as large by half as it used to be, or if it requires a microscope to find the 10 cerjts worth of quinine, the cause thereof is not due to the lack of gener osity on the part of the druggist, but to the fact that Germany practically had control of the drug market of the world, and that for good and 'sufficient reas ons, commerce between this country and Germany is at a standstill. Public Opinion Indorses this family remedy by making its sale larger tharK that of any other medicine in the world.

OAT SMUT PREVENTION Washington, 1). Feb. III. The av erage annual losses from smut in oats rue greater than those caused by liny other preventable cereal disease ill the I'nited States. Treiting the seed with hot water or with formaldehyde solu tion before sowing is nil easy, cheap, and effective way of preventing this disease. The latter method, which is the one most available for general use, is hero briefly summarized. Until meth ods are described in detail in Fanners' Mil Hot in "id", which will be sent free on 'Application to the secretary of ag riculture, Washington, I). ('. .Mix the foruialin (a commercial prep aration which is It" per cent formalde hyde by weight) with water at the rate of 1 pound (a little less than a pint) to -10 gallons of water. The grain may be either loosely inclosed in sacks or put loose into i tub or vat with the solution. Agitate the sacks or stir the loose grain occasionally so that the en tire surface, of every grain will be thor oughly wet. Instead of being immersed the seed oats may be spread on a clean floor or canvas and sprinkled with the solution and shoveled over during the process so th it they will be wet evenly as ill the other inet'.wul Not over n gallon of solution will lie needed for every bushel of dry grain. After sprinkling, shovel the seed into a pile. cover it with sucks wet with the solu-j tion, nnd allow it to stand for lit lensr. two hours before spreading it out to dry. Precautions: The oats may be seed-1 cd as soon as dry enough to run through the drill. If the seed is still moist, how ever, tiie drill must be set to sow more to the ncre thin if it is dry. The iiu lit it v w hich should be sown mny be determined by measuring a given bulk before uinl after treatment nnd figuring: the proportion ot increase, After treat ing do not expose the seed to freezing until it is thoroughly dry. l)o not allow the treated seed to coinn into contact with old sacks, bins or ma chinery in which there may be smut snores. If' such must bo used, scald liiein or wash them first with the for m tldchyde solution. Santa Monica After Big Automobile Races Santa Monica, Oil., Feb. 111. Simla Monica .-tinted a hot fight yesterday j to get the. Vnndcibilt and Grand Prix' automobile races for the historic eight mile course here next. November. At the reipicst of the chamber of commerce, the city commissioners sent a telegram to the Cup Holders' associa tion in New York asking 'sanction for the twin classic. The message stated that all difficulties with property hold ers had been settled, and that the neces sary cash guarantees had been assured by bankers of the buy district. Elgin, 111., is already in the field, making a strong campaign to grab the1 races. Now that Santa Monica has vir-' tuiilly decided to have them here if the sanction can be obtained, a warm bat tle is expected. The telegram was sent this morning, when a delegation from the chamber of commerce, headed by Paul Derkum, pro moter of the last Venice automobile ruce, attended the meeting of the city commissioners nnd went to the bat hard in favor of the proposition. They were urged there were already a number of famous machines in south ern CaliforniaC, including the English Sunbeam, just arrived, and that the Viiiideiliilt nnd Grand Trix would nf ford il fitting climax to the projected season of motor racing here. The Vniidcrbilt and Grand Prixs were held on the Santa Monica course two years ago. The course, which runs through the i-ity streets, is conceded to be one of the fastest in the world. Rec ords have repeatedly been smashed on it. Last year the races were contested at. the Panama Pacific exposition, Sun Francisco. Tf sanction is secured, work will start nt once in regruding the Santa Monica course. i DON'T LET SOAP SPOIL YOUR HAIP. When you wash your hair, be enrefnj what you irse. .Most soaps and riro ,- rfl shampoos contain too much alkali, which is very injurious, as it dries tliu sculp and makes the hair brittle. The best thing to use is just pluiii niulsified coconiiiit oil, for this is pure ii ml entirely gicnseless. It's very cheap, U ud beats the most expensive soups or anything else all to pieces. You can get this at any drug store, and u few ounces will last the whole family I'm months. Simply moisten the hair with water and rub it in, about a te.'ispoonful in all that is required. It makes an aliiindnnce of rich, creamy lather, cleanses thoroughly, and rinses out easily. The hair dries quickly nnd ev enly, and is soft, fresh looking, bright, fluffy, wavy and easy to handle. Bo sides, it loosen and takes out eveiy piirticle of dust, dirt and dandruff. REAL ESTATE TRANSFERS Want to Bake PILLA Better Cakes?
