Senator Me Xary with a total of 6102 ran righest m u recent election, Lachmund is next to high man with votes totaling and Pierce, candidate for govern or, is third with 4.'16o votes. Pierce beat Governor Withveoni-le in the county by 19 votes. The city of Salem divided even, liv ing Pierce nine precincts and Withy combe, nine. Pierce WCIlt especially, strong in precinct 1, tho northwest limits of the city, with 182 against 88 for the governor. Precinct 7 up in the Highland dis trict on the north limits of the city was also strong for Pierce with 113 compared to 28 votes for Withycombe. Precinct 18, in south Salem voting at the Friends church was another Pierce stronghold with 132 and only 102 for the governor. Jn fact, as the precincts voted the governor lost in tho outlying districts of tho city, tvhilo down town precincts gave mm a majority. In preciuct 11, whica includes the central official dis trict between Center and Ferrv and High and the S. P. railrond, the vote stood 76 for Pierce and 177 for the governor. Precinct 16, tho business dis trict of the, city supported the gov ernor with a vote of 44 for Pierce and 91 for Withycombe. The only outlying precinct that supported tho govornor was No. 3 out towards tho penitentiary. It was tho old stand pat republican precincts in the center of the city that stuck with the stat,admiiiistration. Salem Heights precinct was strong for Pierce with 112, casting only 42 ballots for the governor. In Kast ilt.

Crop Production For Current Year Reported Washington, Nov. 9. Corn produe- tion for 1918 was 2,749,000, the depart ment or agriculture announced today. This figure is approximately the same as for four yeas average ending 1916. The- potato crop fell to 390,101,000 ousneis, urty million less than in 1917. An increase of 70,000,000 pounds is snown in the report of tho tobacco crop. Tho production was 1,266,686,000 pounds. Tho crop reporting board confirmed earlier estimates of a decreased pro duction due to droughts. Tho crop is I 4. ... ,1.3 While we re doing everything we can for our boys in Eu rope, we are, through thrift less ways in the care of eggs alone, wasting enough of this food to furnish each man of an army of 5. 000.000 with Iwo eggs a morning for breakfat This destruction comes through spoil age, deteroratlon and careless hand ling, all of which means thriftlessness. There is not a person in America who would willingly rob one of our brave bovs of his breakfast. In fact we would do anything possible to adil to the comfort, happiness and efficiency of these men who have proved them selves, despite the handicap of short training, as good fighters as the world can produce. But through sheer thrift Icssness our annual loss in eggs amounts to $122,73.5,500. One of the interesting manifesta tions of thrift lies in the efforts now being made to turn the former depre dations of wild rabbits into a national asset. In this matter we arc following in the steps of Australia which a few years ago had a serious problem on its hands. But the government took the matter in hand and the rniibils of Australia are now a source of wealth to the country. There are 900,000,000 wild rabbits in America and tlie damage caused by . tltem has hern so great tlwt the B- j logical Survey frequently has been called on to give' help to Western fanners in fighting the pests. If the wild rabbits killed in America were consumed as food there would be an addition of from 200,000 to 300,000 tons to our supply while the skins nloue would huve a value estimated at s 20,00O,0(O. Estiiblishments are being opened in the West where rabbit meat is canned am! the fur is tanned. From Alaska comes another inter esting phase of thrift that Is as new as It is novel. This is the successful effort being made to utilize the rein deer for food. The meat of tlie rein deer Is said to be excellent fowl, hav ing the gamey taste that is rellsheoTby so many people. The flesh is tender and compares favorably with beef. . The government is importing reindeer from Siberia in order to encourage the industry in this country. It- is esti mated that then? are 100,000 reindeer in Alaska, of which number about 18, 000 animals can be placed on tltt ni.-irkct for food supply purposes. . The reindeer lives on lichens which have no other value, and there is no expense connected with placing tab food on the market except herding, , sheltering, slaughtering and shipping. These are just a few of the Inter csting'side lights of the war. We are going to a hard and bitter school. We are being taught some interesting and Valuable lessons in thrift. ' The great question is how long will we re member these' lessons after the days of bloodshed and strife are over? State House Notes Senator-elect John B. Bell of Lane county and representative L. E.
