There are in the United States 80,000,000 acres of swamp land which can' be drained and which will be as arable as a garden when tley 'are drained. : This swamp land would providehomes f or and support 10,000,000 peo ple. There are in the United States millions upon millions of arid and semi-arid lands, which irrigation : could make and is making very fertile. These lands will support 15,000,009 house holds, or twice the population of New York stater" There are what may be called ; the Lost Lands; lands lost to the public through fraud; lands lost to the public through lack of knowledge of how to handle their peculiar for-'' mation. Only' 20 per cent of Uncle Sam's lands are yielding living averages. What of the rest? Conservation says every acre, every' foot of eyery acre, mustbe made productive of some thing. If it can't grow crops, - grow trees! If you can't drain swamps, grow cranberries and matting reeds! If you can't ir rigate, then practice dry farming! If you can't farm rocks, then har ness its cataracts into water-power! As to the lands lost to the public through fraud, Conserva tion says: "Take them back for the public or charge their full price for the public." . And you are still only at the beginning of Conservation's big programme. For every ton of coal mined a ton and a half is wasted; or to put it differently, for every four tons mined, six tons are wasted. In the petro leum fields enough natural gas goes to waste to light every city in the United States free of cost. The fire waste of the United States is the highest in the world; so is ihe bill of fire insurance. And greater than all these is the waste of human life in mine and factorv. . "..

The old Washington handpress used since 1854 ta print the Oregon State Journal, of this city, which suspended publication recently will be sent to the A-Y-P Exposition at '- Seattle. "George SHALL INCOMES BE TAXED. V The belief expressed . by. two Presidents that' the question of the constitutionality of the in come .tax has not been eternally settled has gone far toward mak ing the subject one of earnest discussion. There are many men of equal honesty and ability arrayed on both sides. The point to be emphasized is that the opinion .of. the Supreme Court, standing as it does in di rect antagonism to the decisions cf a hundred years and declar ing unconstitutional a .tax that in practically similar form was effectively administered for more than a decade, is not accepted as the final judgement. As long as this is tne case and as long as men of high standing in the Na tional. Legislature feel that an income tax is a righteous tax, just so long will we have the jus tice of its imposition pictured to the public mind. There are men who believe that the Supreme Court erred and who are -determined that there shall beanbth er adjudication of the question; and as long as these men con tinue to occupy a commanding station in public life, it h certain that they will not allow the sub ject to remain quiscent H. Himes, the .State Historian, , has offered to put the press in one of his rooms in the Oregon buildings; This press was the pioneer press of the Paci fic Coast, and was used to print the Oregon City Spectator in 1846. It was abo used to print the Oregon City Arg us from 1855 to 1893 by D. W. Craig. It was then taken to Salem, thence to Roseburg, and from there bought to Eugene, and the Oregon State Journel was started by H. R. Kincald, who owned and conducted the paper until it suspended. t Show This Ad to Your Wife She knows a good thing -when she sees it she will tell sou that- tW ; the best trunk that has ever yet been devised. .

First and Adams Sts. Fhsns 2318 It is built like a rlrpsspr thing you want, and when and vhere you want it A lady can pack her particularly nice garment in it with out having them all wrinkled up by having the weight of the whole con- ' tents of the trunk upon them. It simplifies packing a d unpacking and eliminates re-packing You do not have to disturb the contents of the whole trunk to get out one little article. The safe transportation of every in dividual piece of wearing apparel has been studied in the construction of this trunk. No wrinkled clothing, no crushed starched pieces greet the dis mayed traveler at the end of her journey.. The drawers are strong, light and rODmy, working as smoothly as a well made bureau. Beneath is a com patment for soiled clothing. This is also an excellent place for shoes, extra clothing, anything, in fact, you don't want packed with the things you are going to us- right along There are compartments for minor articles ot dress and a tray fitted into the lid holds firmly easily wrinkled pieces that should not be packed with other thiugj. The increased comfort of -isiting with this trunk is obvious. 1 he in dividual luxury of a spacious and well orderedtrunk is always insured When it comes to "cramming" you can get just as much into a Stallman as into the roomiest trunk made . It is built higher than the ordinary trunk to overcome any space lost by dividing it into compartments Briefly, it is a trunk designed for people who do not fincy eaving neatness, order and convenience at home when, they travel A Stallman Dresser Trunk defies the batfgae . recker to do their worst. It is the strongest trunk made. No tice the lid It ioes not extend over the entire front as in the usual kin '. It stops about four inches from the bottom In handling the trunk the lower ptrt of the lid is thu3 protected by solid corners. It can only be struck on top where here is little or no strain on the hinges. I The O. A. G.
