We have been awaiting IhV-arrival of the red-breasted robin but he cometh not. ; There are, however, otiier happenings at this period of the J-ear that impresses people generally that it is not always the robin that proclaims the advent of spring. And it happen ed yesterday and is happening today all over the state of Oregon. Uncle Sam is making the delivery, the postol'fice fclerks are doing the work with bended backs and long hours of labor. They are carrying them to almost every home in the city, shooting them out to the rural districts in countless ' numbers postage prepaid 'n everything all dolled up with glaring prices to inveigle the unsuspecting to contribute '. their mite toward .supporting Sears & Roebuck Company ' ami Montgomery Ward, the nation's two big mail order con- cerns. The county is being flooded with their catalogues .tyus week truck loads are arriving all of which is most concrete evidence that spring is here and the two big mail " order octopus are lengthening their fangs to sweep the west of as much money as possible, thereby crippling and rctard--ing the continued growth of the country to the highest de gree possible. ' i . . . How is it possible to build a city, a county or a state and buy your needs in Chicago, New York or any other large eastern center? What has made those cities prosper and grow? Largely the business attracted from outside communi--;tteS, just like the quota of trade they are taking from this county. And what does the buyer get in return? In what way is his real financial gain? Is he helping to build up his ' community? Does his outside buying place a higher value on his farm or city holdings? Does he look to the big eastern tenters for aid and assistance from the banks when it be comes necessary for him to borrow money to carry on his enterprise? Do these big mail order concerns extend him limited credit, as does his local merchant in many instances, or is he required to pay in advance for all purchases from a' distance? And, when the Grim Reaper ' appears and ushers you into that bourne from whence no man returns, who supplies the jnd words of sympathy to your beloved ones? . Who sends the flowers to cover your casket and who lends assistance to those left without your support and care? Who t fire. they? Surely, Scars Roebuck & company and Mont gomery Ward would riot so belittle themselves to consider , any courtesies to you or your family. They might throw in ; one of their catalogues for fuel, or as a reminder of your lack of integrity for your home town and county. The most - you could expect of them is the elimination of your name from their mailing list. If you had been a good customer, paid in advance as you are requested and required to do, aHd-never made any complaint regarding the quality your purchases had taken your medicine as prescribed the mail order concerns they would express a degree .sympathy, to themselves, for their financial loss and yoif among the "dead ones" lhat had a good mail order ;petite. ' ; If you have no greater interest in your own stale than trr4 of retarding growth and prosperity by buying away from home why not move to the larger eastern centers to avoid postage and freight charges and meet your "friends" face to face. t , To the limited vision of the most of us it would appear 'Mud the big corporations doing business in the United States 'are' making an enormous profit on their finished products, land perhaps we'are led to believe that this profit is all out '; of reiison with what the producer of the commodity gets for his time and labor. Farmers are credited with getting less ' for their products than they ought to have. This is ap parently often too true, but from the Year liook published by -Swift & Company, one of the biggest concerns of the country, some interesting figures are gleaned concerning meats.- It is well known among growers that they often receive for fruits 30 to 40er cent of the prices finally paid by the consumer. Wisconsin potatoes are not infrequently marketed, the 1925 Year Hook shows, at 120 to 23 per cent of the final figures paid by-Chicago consumers. Much that is grown on the farms at .expense of hard labor and a whole year's effort is disposed of at figures that are responsible for the present hard times being experiencd by ranch peo ple the country over. According to the report of beef Unit is given in the Year Cook, the farmer fares well. A steer that the consumers pay ?R7.fi8 for brings the farmer ?.")0.f! or approximately 57 per cent of the final price brought for the beef over the block. The retailer's expense for handling the .Jbeef is placd nt $19.3:1, or 32 per cent of the total value, 'ihe ' backer gets ?13.').r), which is mound 15.5 per cent, while transportation and marketing expenses take around $1.11 ot-4.7 per cent. This is an excellent showing of profit for the farmer, and also proves that the packer is not robbing the public, because 15.5 per cent is assuredly a low margin ; for doing business, ami only concerns like Swift, whose vol umo of trade is so great, are capable of doing things like ' this. A total of 2-16 bills, signed by (lovornor Piw, is the result of the 1!L'3 nession of the Oregon legislature. This tniftiber of new laws will probably hold us together for an other two year:..

We- know one man in the village who Is Just that trt. He's easy-goln', con genial, yet firm. He is deliberate, tactful, but mighty just. He can change In an Instant from a peace ful citizen to a fiery fighter but his Ire is never aroused unless it be in a just cause. Percy Webb, who rests his elbows on the Douglas Hotel desk, has a legion of friends. The boys who were associated with Percy In the days when he was eatin' embalmed beef in the Philip pines have only the kindest words to say of him. Those who knew and worked .with Percy when he was employed In the official capac ity of deputy sheriff for the county vouch for his ability and good Judgment. Percy has lived a life here In Roseburg that entitles him to a prominent space In our Hall of Fame. We're proud to name you In this distinguished list, Percy, and to place the laurel wreath upon your brow.
