A survey of industrial and com mercial conditions in Oregon is about to be undertaken by the state Univer sity. This vast and important work has been assigned to the University by the board of higher curricula, and will be done under the School of Commerce, which will be opened in connection with the state university next Septem ber. Harry B Miller, of Portland, for mer consul general to China, will be chairman of a board of nine advisers, composed of prominent Oregon busi ness men, who will make suggestions for this survey. The nine advisers fol lows: C E Spence, Oregon City, master of the Oregon State Grange; A Harris, Portland, editor of tie Portland Labor Press; John A Keating, Portland, vice president of the I umbermen's National bank; W K Newel1, Hillsboro, presi dent of the State horticultural board; Robert Strahorn, president of the Port land, Eugene and Eastern railway; C C Colt, president of the Union Meat company of Portland, and a representa tive of the Portland Chamber of Com merce; R W Raymond, manager of the Manufacturers' Association of the Northwest; W D Skinner, general traffic manager of the Hill line in Ore gon, and former Consul General Miller. The state university, in making this survey, will investigate each industry in order, and will report upon every foreign field consuming the product of thia industry. When wheat raising is handled, for example, the details of aid rendered by government of other wheat raising countries will be ascer tained aid, that is, in such mrtters a building elevators, securing lower transportation rates, and conserving land. State and local aid given farm ers in this country and other countries will be reduced to usable form. The world's wheat production will be tabu lated. The object will be to help the Oregon wheat producer get the most; grain possible at the cheapest cost to . the highest priced market. The purpose of the fruit survey will be similar. Consuls, for example, over all the world will te called upon for data of fruit consumption in their dis tricts; of the source of that fruit sup ply; of the methods and coat of hand ling shipment abroad; of the market possibilities as to both demand and piice. A thorough canvass of this kind, covering all the source of pro duction at wrll as possible markets, is intended to give the Oregon fruit raiser his Prut comprehensive look at tte world's fruit situation. The next log ical step will be to help him develop these markets where profitable markets are found to exist. Similar surveys will be mad for stockraising, lumbering, fishing, gen eral farming and so on. 6. Eight hour day. excepting agri cultural, allied and kindred pursuits. 6.
