ports that all camps sent out to pick

be doing good wor and assisting
greatly In suving tho crop.
The supervisors report that about
five per cent of those sent to tho
camps havo turned out to bo regula
tion slackers end grouchors and are a
detriment to tho work. An effort will
be made to get rid of those who are
not willing to take the good and the
bad as tho work comes along. This
applies to girls as well as boys, accord
ing to tho report. In ono camp nenr
Salem the supervisor was glad to dis
pose of four or five kickers as this
left the remainder of his organization
In hotter, spirits. Taking everything
into consideration, there seems to ho
fairly satisfactory conditions in the
loganberry district and with, the com
ing in of additional labor, it Is thought
the crop will bo fairly well harvested.

tho young men who registered June 5
and this was the number of Josoph

number in the Salem order numbers was
29, and this in the number o-f Herbert

third to come within the Salem num
bors was 74 and this is for Robert
Rockwell Tracy of Turner. The fourth
in the local numbers drawn in Wash

but littlo importance what order num

coming and the assurance of the war
department that several calls will be
made within a month or so, it is more
than probable that all men who are

Peterson was known as the most ec

had failed.
Ho never would refuse a dare, and
this led him into many queer escapades.
Ho once ' ran a race barefoot down
Portland's main business street. At
another time he attempted to drive an

the campaign having secured 13,300 of
its quota amounting to (4730. Other dis

How War Effects Steel
In the battle of Verdun, lasting'more than half a year- the
French fired 60,000,000 shells containing 1,800,000 tons of steel.
To produce these shells and transport them required the con
sumption of nearly 9,000,000 tons of coal more fuel than was
produced last year in Utah, Oklahoma and Michigan combined.
This illustrates the effect of war on the steeUndustry.
The Government is now taking over all cutput of the steel
mills regardless of orders that may be ahead. Manufacturers
of agricultural implements have about enough material for a
normal output this season and contracts for products far in
excess of ability to manufacture.
Second-hand machinery will sell next year in advance of
present prices for new goods. Why not prepare now both for
this summer and next year.
