I What In meant, by the abstract -term "Kra of the Pacific" is a lit 'tie hard to grasp but if the devel- opulent on the Pacific in the last twenty years could be unfolded be foro us by a tricli iiiovIiik picture camera which would condense the "twenty years Into two hours, we 'could then easily understand. The Kra of the Pacific Is dawning most rapidly. What of Oregon In this great ;march of events? Oregon Is mar ker to trading points In the Orient. Oregon has climate advantages, -versatility of production anil 'plenty of pure fresh water. Oregon "lias vast untouched resources in "cludlng timber, mineral and per haijs oil. Oregon is unclouded undeveloped Oregon Is still the land or opportunity. .' Kealizlng these things, a group ;.o'f forward looking people, most of -them in Portland, have formed an "organization which they have dimmed: "OnTo-Oregon, Inc." They "are going to rnlse a fund of $2G0, 000 which will he used to adver- -tise Oregon. "On to Oregon" Is the "theme of tho campaign. Can a '(liiftrler of a million dollars be "raised In Oregon lor the purpose of buying advertising space? The "hew organization answers that by pointing out that half of It Is ruls-ed-now. In additieh, the entire ad--verilslng fund of the Portland '.chamber of commerce is to be put Into the larger pian. On-To-Oregon, Incorporated, jl Jnot a drcum, nor' an cxpuiimubt,. "nor Is It extravagantly conceived, lfho samo idea has been adopted "by -19 other cities of this country successfully. In this connection an interesting fact is that 17 of the 19 .eitlt.'s are located in California! 2'm There, is nothing w rong w ith Oregon. There has never been any 'tiling the niatler with Oregon. On 'the contrary, life Is remarkably .easy and free from strife In Oro "gon.

Naturally, there Is a chance of the venture not proing profitable, un the other hand, they had some thing like J40.0U0 or '50.U00 in vested in bad accounts, which will now be turned Into stock, with a strong probability It will become more profitable as time goes on. They will save this year's fruit crop in this section and it they gain, they will he the ones to benefit. If they lose, they will have to blame themselves. They will probably get belter prices than i hey could have done had there been no way of handling the fruit here. And on tup of all the rest, they are placing themseli-es in po sition to receive financial aid from tile government. I Tliis is an age of cooperative ami organized eifort.

This increased activity of the oil glands of the scalp 'causes exces sive greaslness of hair. In conse quence there may be a constat!' shower of dry, white or yellow, fine scales from the scalp.. Dandruff Is known to tho medi cal profession as "pityriasis capi tis." Pityriasis is derived from tho Greek word meaning "bran. You wilt see that the description.

Around pie County Small Farmers Along Kivcr Hurt by Law Which Keeps Them From Taking Fish From River, They Say. By It, li. WOOD i'n nntfi tho Hmn ui.on iim ,iru. ent fishing law was passed, closing the upper river to all commercial fishing, and allowing the fisheries at the month of the 1 mpqua ex clusive rights to take salmon with nets, there were a number of fan illes In Oougias county who had built homes along the river from Winchester down to Scottsburg. and 'who were enabled to add ma terially to their incomes from sales of fish. In a trip last week which included a part of the lower river for a distance of thirty miles down stream from Winchester, the News Review man met a lot of these folks who were thus deprived of what they teruT a legitimate right to enjoy the revenue from fishing. These people bitterly assail the leg islative act, and those legislalors who sponsored the measure, giving the commercial fisheries at the mouth of the river exclusive iiL'iils to the salmon that are alleged lo belong to all the people. Just why .he big fisheries should conu in for all this protection from a 1tviiKii f legislature is what these good cili- .ens of Douglas county v. ant know. Why any legislative mem ber from 1 ouglas county allowed this nu-asuio to go through with out vehement' protest, is a no! her thing they cannot understand. These folk.- express themselves aft er this fashion: Before the law went Into effect I he several fam ilies who weie engaged in fishing as h partial means of increasing their annual incomes w ere each catching on an average of approxi mately $Sihi worth of fhdi annually. This money was all spent in Itose but g. It being their nearest t Hid ing point, with possibly a lew ex ceptions. Koseburg merchants got the benefit of their industry, and the sum thus earned lotaled sev eral thousands of dollars. As soon as ihe law became effective this income was automatically stopped, Kosebui g retail shops, auto agen cies and other trades also automati cally Ust the benefits theretoforu Ihe mouth of the river thetHattei accruing.

For It Is sheer was! of energy and time to whip ihe'water white the sun Is on it beside making the steelhead very nervous1 and "Jumpy" darting from their shadows, as it were. The river Is still falling. I am using No. X flies. Have taken fish on No. 10s. In the swift water it makes for -ingerly handling of one's fish, once hooked, and this but addn zest to the sport. Since our arrival we hnve slow ly been adding to our family of wild things. A huge piey squirrel Is almost under our fe ;, at times.

Alter hitch hiking over 33.00 miles through what to him was but a big silent world, ho arrived in Roseburg late last night from Eu gene, and will remain In the city, today and head towards Grants Pass Thursday. At. Salem, the hiker called on Governor Norhlad 'and received a recommendation let ter which he shows about as he passes through ihe state. The "Silent Hoosier" hiker, as he is known throughout the Cnitetj. States and in Central Kurope, nasi called on "Jo governors and twoi presidents lu the l'nited States.) Last year "The Silent Hoosier"! Inker took a trip abroad and visit ed three European countries in eluding England, France and Ger many.

I am desirous of set ting down one occasion upon which the adage fell down on the jot) didn't hold water, etc. One morn ing last week 1 was fishing a very pet spot o' mine at some distance down the river from the camp. At the top of the pool I took a nice fish of about five pounds und mined it back to tne stream. Some 50 feet farther down, as I cast slowly and tnoioughly along, I had a tmriendous rise at my fly. But the iish missed it. Anu though I rested him for some minutes, he would not "show" again. I w as using a Black I Jose No. 6 and a most excellent fly foi ceitain pools. Changing to a Jock Scott, and a size smaller, I cast over the spot and the monster took It with a vengeance. Out o' waiei he came, and my heart skipped a beat actually! (losh-a-mlghty . . . what a steelhead! And I was us lug a five ounce Cross rod that particular morn'. Well . . . steel head and I had it to and fro, up and down, for U8 minules until 1 had the good fortune to wear him down and get him. Looked as big as a Chinook, at my feet, In all Jils superb death hues. How big was he? Wait a minute. My I'll tale is but half told. I sat down and smoked a cigarette just one whole man-full of content and happiness, thanking the Creator that He bad permitted the joy of this really groat fish. The gun's ever hurry ing fingers were reac' Ing out on the pools and I saw ti t I should have to haste me, If I were tc get a few minutes more fly work before the water was ablaze "will light. So I stood up, lengthened some 30 feet of line from the ree stenned out on a rock and casf obliquely across the stream. Af tho fly straightened out from thr curve . . . came a gesh-awful splas' at it and a mad scream from tb-. reel . . .! This fish came up air out of water, porpoise fashion, am again the cardiac organ dropped be:it -for this fish seemed as big if not bigger than the other mon ster. And again we round anc' rounded It, and up and downed it all over the river. Fortune again smiled graciously and at my feel lay the two biggest steelhead thai I have ever seen on any river. And r think (thought I shall be mon happy to be corrected) that thi' pair of fish hold the record a' Steamboat and will for a long time to come. They weighed an hour and a half after taking exactly eleven pounds apiece, and were sr exactly alike that they could no! be told apart. Of course I have taken movies of them. for. the showing to angliin friends in southern California ami "stills" galore. A special story shall be writ about those two fisr for one of the national sportinp publications.
