MTI Mr Wood, "controla the Paclfle Ocean, and the United State Govern ment fcas not been letting any oppor tunity eacape for maklnr more tersXln her position on the Inlands. Extensive fortifications, equipped with the finest modern un for coast defense. are rushed forward, and Honolulu practic ally will soon be Impregnable against attack from the sea. At Pearl Harbor the Government I erecting drydocka that will be. when completed, the larg est In any of the waters controlled by our Nation. About ten thousand sol diers will be stationed permanently In the Islanda. "Honolulu la the key to the Hawaiian Islands, for there Is no other harbor of else In any of the other Islands. With Honolulu fortified as she Is to be fortified, the ajrlp of the United States on the Pacific Ocean will be pretty safe." Caaal Heaet Predicted. Mr. Wood believes that the' opening c the Panama Canal will increase the trade between the Islands and the cities of the Pacific Coast rather than divert ?t through the rmnal to Atlantic porta. The opening; of the canal, he asserts, will vastly Increase shipping facilities on the Coast, while the producers In the Hawaiian croup will still send their icoods to the nearest American mar kets. "Our tride Is at rresent heaviest with Fan Francleco and the ound cities." he said, "although the only resson for this la the fart that we have no direct steamship connection with Portland. First of all Portland bualnesa men who are Interested In her Industrial growth should work for the establishment of a steamship line a-lvlnpT regular serv ice to Hawaiian ports, but ther Is no reason whv a rennery established In Portland should not receive a lare;e share of the sugar-trade that la rapidly growing- larger than one city ran han dle. The two thtnas then, that we most reel to put us In close and mutually profitable relations with Oregon are a steamship line, and after that a sugar refinery to take a share of the raw ma terial we are producing." f1eeaagle ladwetry Crewa. "Our Inlands have only begun to realise the possibilities for producing that lie within them. A few years aco our pineapple Industry was compara tively small. Last year our exports 10 pineapple. mintej to more than fi).0A, arvl Hawaii ha practically taken awsy the pineapple trade from Singapore, which held It In the past. Cotton is another product that we have cjily begun to work, but which prom , l.es to make millions, and we are now raising tobacco that equals the best leaf grown In Sumatra." Mr. Wood S4vs that large American ! corporations are steadily gaining a firmer foothold In the Islands as they realise more clearly th.tt It I the most strategic point In the Paclfle from a commercial aa well as a military view point. The Standard Oil Company Is establishing large stations for the sup ply of fuel to ships. 5 "Til furl of ocean-grins vessels wtll consist mainly of gas line and oil 'products In the near future." said Mr. Wo.d. "Knowing this, the great com pany la taking tepe beforehand to prepare for the ncrease of shipping that wlil go to Hawaii after the open - Ing of the canal. In the future Hono lulu wtll be made the great cleartng . house for all the ships that sail the . Pa-:nc Ocean." Pair Pvwaapta lalf. Mr. Wood came to Pan Francisco last eek. as chairman of a committee ap potnred by Governor Frear. to arrange for Hawaii's representation at the Panama-Pacific Kxpoltion. After com pleting nls business In San Francisco, he came to Portland to look over the trade altuation and confer with the representatives of the Portland Cham ber of Commerce on the commercial relations with the Islanda. He will leave this morr.lng for Vancouver. B.C. OFFICERS BREAK UP DANCE Patrons I "Ice When Conductor of Amusement I Arrested.

LOGBED-GFF LAND GOOD AS PASTURE Government Experts Say Ex ercise of Care May Solve Dairy Problems. ROUGH AREAS VALUABLE Where Cost of Clearing Would Be Prohibitive, Seeding Will Bring Much New Ground Into Ue. Problem Is Studied. OR EGO NT AN NEWS BUREAU, Wash ington. Sept. IS. Approximately 3,000. 000 acres of logged-off lands In Western Oregon and Western Washington, now lying Idle and overrun with weeds, might readily be converted into valu able pasture lands, according to Byron Hunter and Harry Thompson, of the United States Department of Agricul ture, who have been making a atudy of these lands. Yielding no revenue what ever In their present abandoned state, these logged-off lands, In the opinion of the Government expert would af ford ample pasture to enable both states to produce all the dairy products needed to meet their growing popula tion and put an end to the heavy impor tations of such food stuffs which ar now made annually both by Oregon and Washington. Clearing I Expeaalve. To bring this logged-off land under cultivation Is very expensive, say these writers. In most Instance the cost of clearing exceeds the value of the land after It 1 under cultivation. For thl resson the bulk of the logged-off land has been permitted to lie unimproved and t.nused since the timber was re moved. In a report they have issued, under direction of the Department of Agriculture. Hunter and Thompson dis cuss at some length the best means of utilizing these cut-over lands. Their report Is especially timely In view of the agitation now under way In the Northwest. The following extract are taken from their report: "The rapid increase In population of both Oregon and Washington during the last decade ha created a great demand for farm produce. To meet thl It has been necessary to ship into these two states enormous quantities of food supplies. This necessity In turn has made a great market for farm land and haa brought th question of utilis ing logged-off land prominently befor the people. In spite of the high cost of clesrlng cut-over land the great de mand for farm produce Is causing the fertile creek and river bottoms and much of the bench land adjacent to the cities and transportation points to be cleared and devoted to market garden ing, truck farming, dairying, poultry raising, fruit growing and general farming. Mack at tbe Land Very Bougk. "As the merchantable timber become career and logging operation are crowded farther and farther back Into the mountains, large area of very rough land will be logged over. Per haps the most satisfactory way to use such land Is to burn It over after the merchantable timber Is removed and then allow It to reforest Itself. Steep hillside ar also to be found here and there throughout the logged-off arena which should be reforested. Between the land that Is now being cleared and brought under cultivation and the rough land that should be reforested lie the bulk of the present and future looged-off land. Eventually th most of thl will doubtles b cleared and cultivated. Owing to the rapldttv with which the timber is be rhg cut and the elowne with whlcn the logged-off lands are being cleared. It is very evident that It will be many year befor the bulk of thl land will be brought under cultivation. If al lowed to He unused It producea 9. growth of underbush and evergreen. It therefore become more difficult to clear the land a the year go by. "The climate of Western Oregon and Western Washington Is well adapted to the growing of grass and clover." The report dlscuaees at some length the best meana of getting the logged off land In condition for seeding, the best kind of seed to low, and the method of bringing the range Int proper shape for pasture: also the best method of range control. Taking ui then the question of stock best suited to thl kind of country, the report continue: ' hi.i,.m r. two important problem which must be taken Into consideration 1 In using logged-off land tor pasture. The first la to prevent the underbrush, brier and weeds from occupying the land and crowding out the pasture plant. The econd 1 the difficulty of maintaining the pasture In a produc tive condition where the tump ana timber are to remain on the land. Value of Goat Dlacwaaed. "The first of these difficulties may be met satisfactorily by the us of Angora goats. By nature these ani mal are browser. They thrlv on weed and the leaves, buds. twig, and bark of brush, a class of vegetation that other domestic animals rarely eat. By their use the underbrush may be either held under control or com pletely destroyed. "If the primary object In pasturing Angora goate on logged-off land Is to kill the underbrush In order to lessen the cost of clearing the land, they are confined to certain area until the brush la deetroyed. Thl will require from two to nve year, depending upon the brush and how closely it la kept browsed. .After the brush 1 killed It takes two to three year more for the root to decay ufftelntly for the land to be plowed. In order to destroy brush uniformly In thl way It la oftn necessary to cut the saplings that are too large to be bent over or ridden down by the goats, for all of the leave and twigs must be within their reach After the brush ha all been killed It Is probable that some other kind of stock will prove more profitable than Angora goat. In ome Instance Angora goat ar kept olly foV the mohair produced and the Increase of the herd. When this I th primary object. Instead of clear ing the land of the brush, it is desirable to keep the paaiure In the best possible condition for goats In order to do this they are changed from pasture to pas ture or given a larger range so that the brush may not he browsed closely enough to be destroyed. If provided with shelter and a good finish pasture, that Is. a pasture that ea not used during the previous season. Angora goats require very little other feed during the Winter. Proper care and suitable feed during the severest weather, however, will keep them more thrifty and Increase the quantity and quality of mohair produced. Cstlle Most Kattafartory. "The second difficulty, that of main taining the pasture In a productive con dition. mut b met very largely by carefully guarding against overgraslng and by pasturing the kind of trtock that is leaat severe on the stand oi grass, n th pasture is carefully managed, ao that the brush will be kept under con trol Instead of being killed, the land may be used aa a goat pasture almost indefinitely, for the Angora goat eat very llttl graaa when brown 1 plen tiful. . . . ' "When the land I burned over and seeded, a great deal of grass and clover will usually be produced, much more than goats will consume in connection with their brawslng. Some other kind of stock may profitably be run with goata to consume thl surplus feed. That both, cheep and horses are more sever on pasture than cattle Is well known. For thl reason cattle a a class are the most satisfactory stork to pasture with Angora goata on logged-off pasture land. The rapidity with which the population of the Pa cific Northwest has increased during th last decade ha built up a strong demand for both beef and dairy prod uct, especially the latter. The State of Washington is Importing approxi mately $7,000,000 worth of dairy prod ucts per annum. In addition to the shortage' In the production of dairy product In both Oregon a-ud Wash ington, there 1 also corresponding shortage In good dairy rows. There are few localities where dairy cow and dairy product can be produced more cheaply than In that portion of Oregon and Washington lying west of the Cas cade Mountain. Th moist, mild cli mate of this region makes It possible to graie cattle during the greater por tion of the year, and there I no reason why vthe logged-off lands of Western Oregon and Western Washington may not be uaed s-uccessf ully in this way."

Let me do my work each day, and If the darkened hour of despair over come me. may I not forget the strength that comforted me in the desolation of other times. May I still remember the bright hour that found me walking over the silent hills of my childhood, or dreaming on the margin-of the quiet river, when a light glowed within me and I promised my only God to have courage amid the tempest of the changing year. Spare me from bitter ness and from the sharp passions of unguarded moments. May I not for get that poverty and -riches are of the spirit. Though the world know me not. may my thoughts and action be, such as shall keep me friendly with myself. Lift my eyes from the earth and lei me not forget the uses of the stars. Forbid that I should judge others lest I condemn myself. Let me not follow the clamor of the world, but walk calmly In my path. Give me a few friend who will love me for what I am, and keep ever burning before my vagrant steps the kindly light of hope. And though age and infirmity over takes me. and I come not within sight of the castle of my dreams, teach me still to be thankful for life, and for time' olden memorle that are good and sweet, and may the evening's twi light find me gentle still.
