The feeling of the Czechs is so bitter that the feasants refused to sow or harvest grain, and due to this, snd other causes, the Austrian production of cereal was reduced from 215,000,000 bushels last year to 13:?,000,000 bushels. This it is stated is the real cause of Austria s growing uneasiness. Coupled with this the promised re lief from Ukraine did not materialize owing to lack of transportation and the fact that some of the active divis ions of the Czech-Slovak troops refusing to stand by the Ukraine treaty of peace took along with them in their retreat evervthine thev could lav their hands on and destroyed what they could not carry away. However no , matter What henceforth emanates from Vienna it will receive but little attention from the allies, and especially from America. This country had at one time some hopes of making peace with Austria, the hope being based on the statements made by the premier of that country. It turned out later that these statements were made at the suggestion of Germany and weie calculated only to deceive and to cause this country to pause in its prepara tions for war. As soon as it was found it would have ho such effect Count Czernin exposed his hand and gave the German influence away. Austria pretended to want peace without annexations or indemnities, but as soon as leace was made with Ukraine changed her demands just as Germany did hers. The truth about Austria is that even nov she is absorbed and controlled by Germany for a practical purposes, and should the kaiser win, the Emperor Charles will hold his crown subject to the Hohenzollerns and as a vassal state. is a remarkable one, and calculated to make those who have so loudly boasted that America was a dollar chaser. alter their opinions. One reason of Oregon being in the lead in all measures requiring patriotic effort is that she has grown slowly, has had no great influx of foreign labor and has as high or higher percentage of native born Americans than any of the other states. Some of the ereat Eastern centers are more foreign than native so far as population goes, and were it not for the agregation of great wealth in those centers it is probable the loan subscriptions would t subscribers trom among the foreigivejement show? that some of them at least have a proper appreciation of not oe up to tneir quotas. At the same time the number the opportunities America offers them, and of the real joy there is in living in a country where they have abso lute freedom. NEWSPAPERS, A WAR NECESSITY ' After a conference with leading newspaper publishers Jast week Chairman Baruch, of the war industries board, decided to create a bureau to look after this branch of business. It has been realized for some time that this must be clone in order to protect tl e publishers in the present crisis, since the revenues of no line of business lias been more curtailed while the cost of operation has soared steadily upward. Chairman Baruch would not indicate his position on the matter of reducing the size of newspapers or elimin ation of Sunday supplements. These and other questions can be taken up with the publishers by the new paper (section and the questions studied in relation to the avail-) able supply of print paper. Baruch, however, made it clear that newspapers, in his opinion, are essential to the prosecution of the war and that they are invaluable in dissemination of information and they must be treated as a war necessity. The propaganda started by the junkers in an effort to influence "the more intelligent soldiers of the allies," shows how little the allied soldiers are understood. The euper-men, the Germans, fancy that all mankind outside their country are as ignorant as the Russian peasant, and as easily deceived. They over-look the fact too, that not one of the allied soMiers would believe anything emanat ing from a German source, even if sworn to by the kaiser himself. Censorship prevents the making public the number of American troops now in or being sent to France. It is known however that the number going over monthly is rapidly growing, and the statement is made that if the present rate is kept up there will be at least two million American soldiers in France by the end of the year. It is claimed that the German army has but 500,000 more than this number on the western front. This looks ex ceedingly dangerous for the boches. j ' That little shower yesterday was all right as far as it wt;nt, but its route and time were both too short Just a little more of the same kind Mr. Weather Clerk will help western Oregon do her bit much more easily toward winning the war and doing away with substitutes for wheat flour. fr-.,,. snoot tne nuns, and o I Ttv I motion- The work ha: ) f .

We hem and haw and stall and paw while worn out France is bleeding; .d we produce the punk excuse, when ships are what we're needing. But now, methinks, we've lost our jinx,' and things will soon be jumping; for Charles M. Schwab, is on the job, and we may see him humping. This mighty man nas come to plan, to do, and cut out dream ing, and ships of his will shortly whiz for France, their sirens screaming. Farewell to rlnnht on mental gout, to foolish snarl and targle, to chewing rags mem and empty brags to stale debate and wrangle. Fori.",1 i,nanes M. bchwab is on the job, the tireless early riser and he'll build boats to get the goat? of Carl and t'other kaiser. "Build boats!" says he; "don't talk to me of rea sons for delaying; and there's a lid for every kid who stands around here braying!" Now beat the drums! The giant comes, and no red tape can bind him ; oh, Charles M. Schwab is on the job, a trail of smoke behind him! tits- IF He flanvred me very boldly, or so it seemed to me. I was uncomfortable, nt first, but lie danced so perfectly, and I was enjoying myself so much more than usual, that I made no attempt to stop his flattering speeches. A Bequest to Call. nt t ,. i nope i may call on you soon again" he remarked as we glided around :Jie room. "I want to be good friends with you." "I we will be glad to sec you," I said, embarrassed. "We!," he repeoted. "I don't wan. to come, particularly, if your lord and master is to be at home. He doesn't care much for me. I think ho sort of ooks down on nw. I suppose ho thinks 1 am not intellectual enough." "Oh, no, I am sure you aro mistak en! I exclaimed flushing. I though. how different Claud Huntington and Morton Gray were, yet I rather liked Claude. He was young, so was I, That meant a great d?al to me atthattime. I had it in my mind to tell him tha. Ucorge thought him too rich for his own good that it took awav his ambi tion to succeed in business. I was very glad, afterward, that I had not done so. I was prevented by Kurts Reeve. "ArenVtyou going to dance with me, H."len?" he asked. "We are all jealous Huntington. He has monopolized you. Your husband looks like a thunder cloud," he said so low that none but I heard, I turned anxiously toward George, no looked bored, and yes, cross. I laid my hand on Kurts' arm and, as we danc ed slowly post George, I said: "Wheivevcr you want to go, George, I am ready. But please dance with Evelyn first. She says you are a perfect dancer, and I know she feels hurt that you haven':, asked her." "You're very eVver," Kurts said. "1 what war? Dn tell nie, it will be goon news." 'T'll tell you something else; beware of Huntington. He's a gny bird, and he has made more than one man jeal ous." Dressing to Please Her Husband, I expected George to scold me, on the way home, but he didn't. Ho scarcely spoKo. i told mm niv clothes were ready to bo fitted, and ashed him if ho want ed to drop into the dressmaker's tho next morning to see them. "I won't have time. I am very busy snail De until wo leave for the sum nv.T. If you and Madame followed my ins .Vuetions, your things will be ail right," he then, agaiu, relapsed into silence. During these days before we were to leave home for the summer. I drewd al ways to please Geovge.As each consign ment of clothes came home, I tried them on for him, and obediently lugged thorn bnck if he found any fault with them, I tried in other ways, to, .o please linn, to win his approval. I consulted with Mary, and wo tried to have all the dishes George liked. I had heard the old joke about the way to a man 's heart being through bis stomach, so often, that I de. crmi,ed to find if George had a road between the two places. 80 I spent many hours thinking of elabor ate menus- often only to havo tho meal carried away almost untasted. George would telephone he was not coining home, and I could not force myself to eat my soliviry dinenr. As the days passed, I euldn 't see that all my efforts amound to anything; yet I would not give way to discourage- 3C c jje 3c fc sfc ifc jc 3t 3j 3C Open Forum 3c 3jC st )fc fc c lc j(C ift )j 5(t C' PRESIDENT'S BOND PLAN To the Editor: Wife aud I after reading President Wilson's appeal for 1,000,000 citizens .0 .-ach buy a $50 bond on the installment have decided that each of us will take A timid Thia in in a,llltinn r 1,., tvn ! we have already subscribed for.

There', no reason .think of a thusand little use, f that ilB, m4 hurriedly left for the'office.' if we had an au ttmobilo, I might learn I ! A hypnotic ts a drug which Is given to produce sleep; it may do other things, too; but if it causes sleep It is a hypnotic. Some hypnotics will produce sleep and will also produce bad and undesirable effects, like depressant action of the heart. Such drugs are dangerous, and particularly so when taken by the advice of a well-meaning, but in adequately informed friend. It is always best to have the ad vice of an intelligent physician be fore experimenting with such dan gerous tools. Even physicians are not Infallible In such matters and have been known to overlook heart weakness or heart injury or underestimate Its importance in their desire to re lieve one who is in need of sleep. Want of sleep, or Insomnia, ia a terrible affliction. What would one not give for sleep when suffering pain, hour after hour? When one is sleeping, physical pain does not exist, for there must be conscious ness in order to appreciate pain. Sleep is more refreshing than food; you can live without food a long time, many days, but not with out sleep. The discovery of hypnotics was a blessed thing for those who suiter, and the new ones are, in many re spects, at least, better than the old ones. By the new ones, I mean those which modern chemistry, by analy sis and synthesis, has given us in great numbers, sometimes embar rassingly so, and which also, are greatly abused. Among the old hypnotics are al cohol, opium, Indian hemp, hyos cyamus, lettuce and hops. The soothing eflct of a hop pil low or a hop poultice, used to be known (In the country, at any rate), as a first class remedy, bnt wa seldom hear of it, or use It. now. Drowsiness from the free use of lettuce is familiar, and the quieting affect of hyoscyamus, or henbane, was once highly esteemed. After the exciting effect of alco hol passes off, it causes deep sleep, " i i i j j. as every drunkard knows, until the organs have become so saturated with it that sleep may be replaced by delirium tremens. Opium was formerly used by many physicians, not only to Induce quiet and freedom from pain, but sleep as well; now it's compara tively little given lor that purpose, I am happy to say. The most important of the new hypnotics are the bromides, paralde hyde, chloral, the coal-tar deriva tives, and the synthetic prepara tions. The bromides are often very efficient as hypnotics, and as little harmful as any powerful drugs I know of. Paraldehyde Is a relatively safe hypnotic and I have often wondered why it was not more generally used. Chloral is one of the best hypno tics we have, but very dangerous, must be taken in larger and larger doses, and sometimes forms a habit which ends fatally. The coal tar derivatives and the synthetic preparations, many of them, at least, are of German oJigia and are now tremendously expen sive and hard to get. I am very glad they are not avail able, for we were being swamped with them, they were producing very bad habits, and I earnestly hope that for all future time the Germans will be compelled to be the exclusive users of their owa medicines.
