The tourist business of Oregon is a thriving basic industry which, during the past year, netted the state a return conservatively esti mated at $15,099,000. Its importance in earning capacity soon may sur pass that of the dairying and live stock industries. This was emphasized in addresses delivered in Portland and in Cor vallis by J. A. Ormandy, general passenger agent for the Southern Pacific company. He has been re quested to repeat his talk at Salem and at Albany within the next few weeks. In appearing before the Oregon state chamber of commerce in Port land, Mr. Ormandy said in part: “During the lust year, or the year just closed, there visited Ore gon from other states and foreign countries hpwteen 400,009 and 500,- 000 tourists. These tourists spent within the borders of our state, ac cording to the most conservative estimates, $15,000,000. “The tourist business, then, is one of the principal basic industries of the state mid within a few years it will probably puss by a very gen erous margin the income returned to the state by such important in dustries as dairy products, which government reports credit with an annual return of about $21,000,000 annually, and livestock, which is NOTICE OF VACATION OF STREETS. now rated at approximately »23,000,- 000 a year. “It is not at all ualikey that within the next four or five years the returns from the tourist business will have outstripped the returns from our other important industries, except our major industries of lum bering, field agriculture mid trans portation. “My conviction is that the mon ey spent by the tourist is distrib uted more generally mid more even ly through the channels of trade than the returns from any of our other basic industries. “This is accounted for partly by the fact that a portion of this new money reaches us through the hotels and transportation companies. To my mind, the hotels aucl transporta tion companies are among the great est distributing centers of our com mercial life because into the oper ation of a hotel mid into the oper atioti of a railroad enters the output of nearly every basic industry. Moreover, the turnover of money in those institutions is exceedingly fast. “Rather than submit to you a general statement, I am privileged to give you an analysis of the sup plies used at Crater lake lodge dur ing the tourist season of 1923, that is, the months of July, August and September. “These included 2340 dozen eggs. 4000 pounds of ham and bacon, 9000 pounds of potatoes, 3600 cans of vegetables of various kinds ap proximating 7000 pounds, mid 8000 pounds of meat. “This constitutes a portion of the supplies consumed by tourists at Crater lake lodge. You will note that practically all of these sup plies are commodities raised in Ore gon. If you take into consideration the enormous quantity of supplies consumed by the tourists at the various hotels, restaurants, camps and other eating places in our state and the huge quantity of souvenirs and merchandise of all descriptions which they purchase so readily, it is not difficult to understand why the tourist leaves such a large amount of money behind him. “We are a favored people and, according to the laws of economics, are entitled to and will, without any particular effort on our part, reap mi over increasing harvest from tourist travel. Yet, if we are to reap the full benefits from this most lucrative trade, it behooves us to study it and to foster it and to anticipate the future needs of this great basic industry.” Notice is hereby given that at a regular meeting of the Common Council of the City , of Cottage _ Grove, Ixino County, Oregon, to be held on the 18th day of March, 1924, the undersigned will present a petition to said Council asking for the vacation of that portion of Jackson Avenue, formerly known as Midway Avenue, being the west one hundred and fifty feet, and St. Helen’s Court, formerly known as Oak Avenue, ex tending from Van Buren Street to Jackson Street, all in Currin's Ad dition to Cottage Grove, Lane Coun ty, Oregon.

The general appearance of the pn tietit is one of muscular weakness, | anxiety, utter helplessness, diffi culty in swallowing, struggle for breath, and unsuccessful attempts to articulate, making a picture which once seen will never be forgotten. The poison is caused by a toxiu and not the germ. It may develop in many of the foods we ent when the conditions are right. All that is necessary for the formation of the poison in many kinds of canned food is that spores of the organism remain alive within the container after it has been processed. The spores of the bacillus will ‘resist tho temperature of boiling wntor several hours. Botulism can be prevented by exercising the following precau tions: Do not use any canned food which shows the slightest sign of spoilage. Use no canned food un less it Ims been processed at high temperature; this is especially appli cable to vegetables of the type that are used in salads. To insure high temperature a pressure cooker is a necessity. Because of the interest in the re cent tragedy in Albany, where two families were wiped out as a result of eating spoiled beans, the follow ing dissertation on botulism, from the Oregon state board of health, is of interest: Botulism is a deadly food poison. The name botulism has lost its orig iual significance, which was sausage poisoning. It was thought that the germ that produces the poison caus ing botulism would grow only in sausage, but it is now known that it will grow in ham, cottage cheese, string beaus, corn, asparagus and ripe olives. Botulism is a rare diseaso but is more common in Europe than in America. Ill a period of 22 years uuiong approximately 100 million people 150 contracted the disease and Ill died. Therefore it cannot be compared in magnitude to tuber culosis or syphilis. Botulism is the cause of forage poisoning in horses and of limberneek in chickens and turkeys. How D’Ye Feel?
