DISCUSS THE STATE
CHAMBERCOMMERCE
Mr. Yoran, of Eugene, Meets
With Officers of Roseburg
' Commercial Ciub,
PLANS ARE PRESENTED
Se ..Organization Will Now ..Get
Jlehind Good Itoada .Program
, Aa One of the Most Vital
Question of the State, 1
By J. B, McClintock.)
Mr, Yoran, of Eugene, represent
ing the Oregon State Chamber of
Commerce,. met with the officers and
trustees of the Roseburg Commercial
Club on Thursday evening of thiB
week and presented the plans and
policy of the state chamber. This
state organization has been formed
tor the purpose of developing tne in
dustries of the whole state, ad no
certain locality of community will
hold any advantage as against an
other section. Portland has no ad
vantage over RoBetrarg in bo far as
development is concerned' and out of
fifteen directors the city of Portland
has only two,- and on voting on any
measure that may be brought before
Portland will have only five votes,
or the same as Salem, Eugene or
ston. The first thing proposed
by the state organisation is to get
back of the good roads progra,m, and
not cease their efforts untii out state
can boast of as good roads as Califor
nia. Bringing ia new people to de
velop our hundreds of thousasdB of
acres of idle lands; bringing ia out
side capital to develop our skieping
industries and undeveloped rfisour-
adjustment of unfair rates In
certain sections of the state; assist
ing local communities with their
problems and variooB other construc
tive measures is the real purpose of
thiB organization. "We are askod to
take out a membership for the iocfttl
organization, and to secure as many
individual memberships as possible'
for this live organization, but Rose
burg is not ready for her part in this ;
great program as yet and will not
be until sufficient Interest is mani
fested in our local Commercial Club
to justify our reaching out and ac-j
ceptlng the proffered assistance of!
the State Chamber. At this writing:
only 169 members have been signed i
up, and at the low -rate named for
membership of only fifty cents per:
month we must at least have 3U:
members and' ehouid have 250 to
be able to successfully carry on the
work before ub. Mr. Yoran advised
that at.no time during the war did
the membership of the -Eugene Ciub
fall below 350, and as Boon as the
armistice was signed they put on a
campaign for new members and have
reached a total membership of
and at tl per month, and in addition
to this they have rateed 3,8S8 to
pay off an old indebtedness wbicb
has been hanging over them for some
years. Eugene is organized and is
ready for the reconstruction period
and will be ready to interest new in
dustries and- bring in many newcom
ers who are seeking homes in pro
gressive localities m Oregon, Kever
before in the history of Roseburg
have we received bo many inquiries
from neonle from all over the Uni
ted States tor information regarding
thiB valley, all of them wanting Hon-,
olte data, and printed matter setting
forth true conditionB here relative
to ciimate, resources, prices of iandB
and town properties, social condi-;
tions, etc., but for nearly a year we
have not had- a single piece of litera
ture of" any kind to mail out. The
fact of the matter is that we have
just one paying member for the past
six months. Hundreds of letters re
main unanswered. We are losing to
day one of the most vital industries
neceesary to the future prosperity of
the city and. county, that oeing.tne
cannery. Stens are now being tajcen
looking to the organization of a co
operative cannery to take its place.
but this will can tor tne nnueo. w
fort of every business man and farm
er in this vicinity. The call has
come for a large quantity of iserrieB
by interests operating elsewhere ana
at nrices that will bring good returns
to the growers. A united effort
mRf he started' looking to the plant
ing of from three to five thousand
nr-ron nf Tjranhflrries. red and black
raspberries and strawberries and
when this has been accomplished the
the wealth of this community will be
increased by not less ttian ojs MIL
LION DOLLARS BBRBally. Such an
industry here not only means pro-!
fits to the growers but employment:
for hundred of boys and girls at:
good wageB. The date for the re-:
organization of the Roseburg Com-:
msrciai Ciub has been set definitely
for Tuesday evening. March 25, at
the city hall at J: 30 o'clock. Please
reserve this date and let us make
the Roseburg Commercial Ciub
real live organisation and put Rosaj
burg and the Umpqua Vaiiey on the
map once more. t
TO ESTABLISH CANNERY.
' At a preliminary meeting held Fri

hold a public meeting at the city hall
March 22. at which time rspresent-
ntivo of the various farming com

and business man will meet to dls

On Feeding Problem. s
EXPLAINS THE SYSTEM
Silage Differs So Much In Appearance
&xh Forms that the- Farmers Are
At ft Loss How To Us Thorn
Momentarily.
C. 3, Kurd and Prof. E. I Potter
returned last evening from Says
Creek, where they conducted a very
successful animal husbandry school.
This was the second meeting ia the
itinerary being carted out la the
county this week by ProfeBBor Potter
and was well attended. The subject
discussed at this meeting waa the
best methods ot feeding of beef cattle
to obtain the best results taking Into
consideration the crops ordinarily
raised in the vicinity, where the
meeting was held. Professor Potter
said: "Silage differs so much in ap
pearance and form from the feeds
with which farmers are accustomed
that many are at a loss to know just
how to use it propariy. It mast,
however, be classed with the rough
ages rather than with the grains, al
though it contains buc& & large
amount of water that it aa not be
fed KB as entire substitute for hay.
Many seem to consider the essential
difference between grain and- rough
age to be that one is ia large pieces
and the other In smaller ones. The
Veal difference between grain and
roughage, however, lies ia the aer
centage of crude Sber contained. By
crude fiber we mean the woody por
tions as distinguished particular!
from the starchy and albuminous
portions. Weii cured hays run ia
crude fiber about 28 to 30 per cent,
whiie the graias, such as oata only
10 per cent; barter 444 Per cent and
corn and wheat . only about 2 per
ent. Such animals as cattle and
sheep can digest fairly large amounts
of crude fiber, -while horses can di
gest a lesser amount and hogs prac
tically none.
As silage eoataias mucn -water its
percentage of crude fiber can not be
compared with hay or grain, but
nthen dried out by the same extent
hav would contain iust about the
stime- amount of crude fiber. In feed-;
ing value as compared- wit hay it re
