best solution of the fly problem. It
should be applied just when the cherries
are beginning to soften and the spray
should be on ih.i leaves just enough to
attract the fly.

Yelling at the. top of his voice con
demning to perdition the poople of
Salem and especially the drivor of tho J
stnge aato to Silverton. and all others
in authority, Lawrence Van Weft, who
snia he was on Ms way to Silverton,
succeeded in attracting an" interested
audience this morning about 7 o'clock
at tho Oregon Bloctrio depot.
He was so emphatic and loud in de
nouncing everything, in sight that ho
also attracted the attention of an of
ficer. , Howover, before the arrival of
said officer, having hafl his say, Van
Wert walked west on - Commercial
street and later made no objections to
accompanying the officer to tho police
station. -
Dr. O. B. Miles was called in and
in his talk Van Wert insisted that sev
onil mediums wore after him. Be also
told thief J. A. Folnnd that medium?
had b(cn troubling him for some timo,
over si-jco he had come from ShorJ.dan.
As Dr. Miles was inclined to regard
the man a somefthat off his mental
balance, lef iro taking further action,

The ong drought now taxes the old
timers to remember the time when Sa
lem and vicinity experienced such a
dry spell. Some of the pioneers who
have been Kore 40 or 50 years cannot
remember of such a drought. The last
precipitation that looked anything like
a shower in Salem was May 19 when
there was only fiv.e hundredths of an
inch of rain. The river today is three
tenths of an inch below zero, something
quite unknown for Salem at this time
of the year. On.? year ago at this date
the guage read 4.7 feet above zero and
two years ago for the same date, the
river was 2.8 foet above. '

School districts as yet are not send
ing in reports of their work in the War
Savings Stamps campaign, according to
W. M. Smith who has charge of the dis
tricts in the country. Silverton wired
last night that in the two days' cam
paign, it had pledged $20,000 of its quo
ta of $55,000 and that tha workers were
staying with it until the quota is pledg
ed. Pratum sent word that in the two
days $1640.78 had been raised of its
quota of $10,540. sends word that more
than $13,000 has been subscribed. Mar ;
ion district had pledged but $1500 out
of its quota of $5,000. According to
Mr. Smith, many districts ana not re
porting from the fact that they expect
to do good work at the mass meetings
to be held Friday evening of this week.
A report comes from Miller Bros
tract that the girls are doing f ino work
picking cherries. The day's schedule in,
eludes out in the the trees at 7 o '-clock
in tho morning, one hour for luncheon
and then at it again until six o'clock in
tho evening. The evenings are spent as
one pleases, some reading and playing
while others are resting. The curfew
rings at 9:45 o'clock and all are abed.
Everything is going fine and tho re
ports from the camp are most encourag
ing. Two men are employed in moving
ladders, and the work is made as pleas
ant for the girls as plenty of cherries
and fine weather can mako it.
The Quinaby school district may have
overlooked a bet in not notifying the
stato headquarters that It hod not only
raised its quota of War Savings Stamps,
but. that it had gone over the top more
than a thousand dolars before noon, of
Monday. The honor of being tho first
to go over the top is claimed by the Ce
cil school district of Morrow county.
This district filed its message at Hcpp
ner at 3:25 o'clock Monday afternoon
and according to state headquarters,
was the first to report. The Quinaby
district beat this record by Beveral hours
but thought that a report to the couny
headquarters was all that was neces
sary to secure th first honrs.
Hence Quinaby is really entitled to the
honor of being the first district in the
state to go over the top in the pre
sent War Savings Stamps campaign.

POSTPONESPAVEMENT
Salem-Aurora Road Will Not
Be Improved During
This Year
The Pacific highway from Salem to
Aurora will not be paved. This paving
project has been indefinitely postponed
by the Btate highway commission.
A meeting of the highway commission
was held in Portland yesterday when
bids for this paving were opened. After
the bids were opened the commission an
nounced that because of war conditions
it would indefinitely postpone all new
paving projects, except ono, in the slate.
Tha one new project of which the
commission makes an exception is on
the Columbia river highway, between
Hood River and Mosier.
The Salem-Aurora project was a post
road project, for which final approve
ment had been obtained from tho gov
ernment, which was to put up dollar
for dollar with the state.
This is the first and only post road
project which has been approved by
the government. With its indefinite
postponement, it will mean there will
be no post road funds spent in the
state until after the war.
The state highway commission will be
unable to use for any other purpose the
post road money obtained by the sale of
bonds under the Bean-Barrett law. The
commission sold $400,000 of bonds, re
ceiving approximately $388,000 for
them. This money is now on hand. What
the commission will do with it is not
known at this time. It may be the com
mission will ask authority from the iifjt
legislature to invest the money in Liber
ty bonds.
Three bids were received on tho Salem-Aurora
job, which covered a dis
tance of about 18 miles. Two bids were
from the Warren Construction company
One provided' "for laying a bitulitl.ic
pavement on a gravel bituminous base
for $403,453, and the other provided for
the same kind of pavement on a new
macadam base for lfl421,438.
The third bid was from the Burrell
Engineering & Construction company,
and was an offer to lay cement concrete
pavement on a basis of cost pins 13 per
cent.
These bids were in excess of ' the en
gineer's estimate, which was approxim
ately $300,000.
To pave the highways on which grad
ing alroady has been commenced, the
commission will ask tho Capital Issues
Committee for authority to sell $590,
000 more of the $6,000,000 bond issue.
The commission has now received au
thority to sell $690,000 of these bonds.
Bids for this sale will be opened July
9.
After its meeting yesterday, the com
mission issued the following statemnt:
"At its meeting today the Oregon
state highway commission rejected all
bids on the paving work contemplated
between Aurora and Salem and com
mitted itself to the completion only of
road work under construction, thus re
ducing to the minimum expenditure of

funds for the present year on road work.
"This is done ia sympathy and ap
proval of the - policy of the Federal
government in conserving both tho fi
nancial and the labor rccourccs of tho
country.
"Notwithstanding the mandatory na
ture of the state law which created tho
commission aud provided funds for road
work under it, tho commission believ
ed its course is fully warranted by the
conditous imposed by the war and feel
confident that its actions will bo sup
ported by the people of tho state."
German Minister
Made Second Speech
Amsterdam, June 26. Foreign Min
ister Kuehlmann's first speech in tho

that he made a second one, according
to pdvices received here today.
After the second speech, Chancellor
Von Hertline declared that Von Kuehl
mann's utterances must not be inter

fensive intentions will paralyze her

PERFECT WOMANHOOD
Perfect womanhood depends on per
fect health. Beauty and a good dispo
sition both vanish before pain and
suffering. A groat menace to a woman
happiness in life is the suffering that
conies from some fumetional derange
ment which soon dovelopsheadachcs,
backache, nervousness and "tho
blues." For such suflforing, women
find help in that famous old root Wnd
herb remedy, Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound, which for three
generations has been restoring health
to women of America.
