see nothing but greatness."
South Carolina Thomas E.
Miller, president of the . South
Carolina college, in speaking of
Salem and the surrounding
country was very enthusiastic
and said that nowhere had he
seen a country that had so im
pressed him. "The West,' he
said, "has certainly been bless
ed and this beautiful valley is
the garden spot of what I have
yet seen. Nature has been , kind
to this section and it only re
mains for the people to make it
the greatest fruit district in the
world."
Porto Rico "Here Nature
has done her best in my "estima
tion," said D. W. . Mav, director
of the Porto Rico station at
Mavaeeur. Porto Rico. "I will
never lorget tne wuiamette
valley. It has unfolded new
possibilities of nature to me
and I marvel in her present
greatness but even marvel more
at what her future may bring
forth."
ADVERTISING EXPERIENCE.
The Agricultural College
Presidents having visited the
walnut orchards of Yamhill," the
hop fields and cherry orchards of
Polk, and the prune orchards of
Marion, and the 0. A. C. at Cor
vallis all unite in singing the
praises of the great Willamette
Valley. Expressions of "opinion
Secured from some - of them
while the party was in Salem the
other day are as follows:
Ohio "You can instruct the.
East in many things. You can
teach them how to farm, you can
show them how to generate
energy. Your Western farmer
is a human dynamo," said
Homer C. Price, dean of the
Ohio State University of Colum
bus, Ohio. "You havev a Won
derful valley, and: its- prospects
are unlimited. The young man's
field of best endeavo is in the
West."
Maine "Opportunities were
never as-golden, young man, as
they are in your valley," is the
sentiment of George E. Fellows,
president of the University of
Maine, of Orons, Maine.
"Nothing is demanded in . this
country but good hard . work, a
judicious exercise ' of brain and '
legitimate methods. They will j
win anything in the West"
. Nevada "The green fields,
the beautiful river, the beautiful
city and the everlasting hills
gjve you all that nature lean, be
queath to any state," said J. E.
Stubbs, president of the Univer
sity of Nevada, of Reno. "The
Willamette valley presents by
far the most beautiful stretch of
country I have ever seen, : and
opportunities unmeasurable."
Pennsylvania Thomas F.
Hunt, dean of the . Pennsylvania
; state college, in speaking of the
country he has . seen ia the
Willamette valley, . said that in
all of his travels he had never
- seen anything like it and was
amazed, at the marvelous re
sources here. "You have every

Rhode Island ' 'The Wil
lamette valley is truly a para:
. dise, "said Howard Edwards ,
president of the Rhode Island
state college. "The people of
the East have no idea that such
a Country exists. A great future
is in store for this valley, and
the postibilities that are now
looked forward to will be surely
realized."
Virginia "The East has its
Commercialism, the South its in-
dustries. but here in the West
- Will be found the garden spots
' of the country, " . said President
Walter B. Elliott, of the Virginia
State college. "It seems tome;"
. he added, "that advancement in
the Willamette valley is in its in-
; fancy, but when one who
Advertising in all - its phases,
both in relation to the newspa
pers and magazines having space
to sell and the business interests
of the country which spend mil
lions of dollars in advertising
their wares, will be discussed
during the fifth annual session
of the Associated advertising
Clubs of America, which ' was
opened in Louisville, Ky., yes
terday. All of the large cities
of the country having advertising
clubs are represented in the con
vention.
One of the most interesting
features of the session will be
the addresses by great advertis
ers who nave made lortunes
through the magic of printers
ink. One of these is Frank Van
Camp, of - Indianapolis, r . who
spends two million dollarsa year
to advertise "his milk, bean', "and
other food products. .
In telling of what advertising
has done for him, Mr. Van Camp
cites this instance: "I made ar
rangements, to spend $100,000 in
one week in Greater New York
alone, and belorethe week was
out I had to cut out advertising
and give day and night orders to
my factories."
That is why Mr. Van Camp is
qualified to speak, oh "Advertis
ing. What It Is, and Its Effect
on the Consumer."
Hugh Chalmers was getting
$72,000 a year as advertising and
sales manager of the National
Cash Register Company when he
left that job to take the presi
dency of the Chalmers-Detroit
Company. ;v
"I diJn't know anything about
antomobiles, r but I did know
something . about advertising,"
explained Chalmers naively. -
He developed an idea for a new
type of car, spent the modest sum
of $28,000 in a -week to let the
country know about it and sold
984 machines as a result. What
he' thinks of advertising will .: be
told under the title of "Advertis
ing and Salesmanship."
The big business men of the
country, who have come to know
the necessity of wise expendi
tures in advertising, will, meet
with the convention along with
the "ad" writers and the agency
men. - . . -
enough for his own consumption
and if he has ten cents worth
over, he magnanimously (?) sends
it to town and exchanges . it for
something he is in need of. How
can a town be prosperous with a
arming; community like that?
Liong bet ore coming here the
writer had heard of the indepen
dence of the Willamette Valley
farmer and now she believes it.
t is certainly time these were
divided up and apportioned "to
ivide-awake; up-to-date people
who would apply business meth
ods along with farming. -'
Commenting upon : the lax-
method, of supplying the trade,
the reply has been, Oh most
every one has their own garden, "
wnicn may nave oeen true some
time ago, but ' now times have
really changed in - Corvallis and
probably y one-third the people
have small gardens with nothing
like a full complement of vege
tables. ' Many , of the new and
beautiful homes have nothing
more than a lawn and ' a few
roses and then there are the new
families that come in each fall,
some to open boarding places -for
the students and others to send
their own families to school; they
are all to be taken account of
now; they have to patronize the
grocer for stale vegetables or do
without. ' -. ' .
- An amusing incident occurred
not long since when a little bov
called on one of these new fam
ilies to sell ten cents worth of
of green beans. " One of the chil
dren of the house announced his
errand when several called with
one accord: "Sure we'll " take
them; grab him quick before he
gets away." The" writer dotes
on green cucumbers and has
tried numerous times to get a
few at the stores that were not
wilted, but has only been suc
cessful to the extent of three,
and here the season is nearly
over. Oh my, Oh me, she feels
like moving to Albany, where
she has heard they really have
nice truck gardens to supply the
trade.
-To buy vegetables from a wag
on that comes to the door at
least three times a week in the
summer and twice in the winter,
is the only correct way in which
a housewife can supply her table
with choice, fresh, wholesome,
food in this line, and as a , vege
table diet has been proven much
superior to meat, it behooves
her to try and have her vege
tables as fresh and plentiful and
nerve supplying as possible.

quality. There are some badspotsin
the valley, where vermin-have left a
blight, but such unsalable hops will be
left on the vines. It is likely that the
total yield of the state will approach
that of last year. .
Mr. Krebs reported last night that
the crop of his yard was in fine condi
tion and there was no mold.

Hop Pickers Get
More Money
(Continued! from, page one )
this year. . Last year growers paid 50
cents a box to pickers " and sold their
hops at - seven or eight cents a pound.
At the present time the market price
of hops is 20 cents a pound, and will
probably be higher later. While the
growers who have not yet sold their
crop will not object to Mr. Krebs rais
ing the scale of wages in . his yard,
those who contracted their crops early
at about the cost of - production will
view the matter in a different light.
The first .installment of pickers for
the Krebs "place, left Portland early
yesterday morning on a special train.
There were' eight passenger coaches on
the train, all of them were filled.
About 200 additional pickers will be
sent up on the regular train this morn
ing, and more will go on Sunday and
Monday mornings. -j.-.-
The weather yesterday was ideal for
the maturing of the crop, and if it con
tinues as favorable for the next two or
three weeks the Oregon hop harvest
will be a' success, both in quantity and
