LUMBER PROFITS
The very faot that the lumbermen
of the country have made such ab
normalproSts on their manufactured
stuff ih very likely the reason why
this industry took such an awful set
back the pant two years, and the com
mon people have not quite come to
thoir nouses sufficiently to gotiuto the
harnosa again and build with the same
haste that characterized what was
termed progress. The fact of suoli
enormous proiits slowly soaked into
the brains of those who wore working
by the sweat of their brow to bnild
op the grpat west, and they just sot
back on their hoo and started a wait
ing game. The force of the blow
finally reached Washington, and in
tlio courso of time conservation was.
the watch word. Since then the peo
ple and even executives have been
thinking, with a show at action.
J No oxport knowledge is needed to
demonstrate the anger of exhausting
our lumber supply. Over immense
aroas of the old lumbering sections of
states like Miohigan and Wisconsin
only stumps remain. The capital in
vested in Michigan in the manufac
ture of lumber Bhowed a decline of
$80,000,000 in the doende from 18U0 to
1900. At present the south is intent
upon stripping itsolf bare of its pine
forests. On tho Pacific coast only the
prodigality of nature retards the day
of ntter devastation. With the disap
pearance of the pino forests the price
of building materials in recent years
has risen rapidly. Whito pine, one of
the most sorvicable of woods, with a
single generation lias quintupled in
value, and is not easy to gut at that.
Tho hard woods used in furniture
making and interior finishing are be
coming scarce. Associate Forester
Prico pointB out the roal source of
danger when he says: "We take
from our forests each year, not
counting the loss hy firo, three und a
half times their growth. Wo take
forty cubic foot per aore for every
twolve cubic feet grown j we take 2(50
cubic feet por capita, while Germany
uses thirty-soveu cubic feet and
France twenty-live cubio feot. " Bo
cause as a people we have bo far had
enough timber we have not yet taki'n

SUNDAY OBSERVANCE
Christian work in this city should
have tho bettor support of citizons
genorally, not one man in one hun
dred living within the confines of this
oity limits is attonding church. It is
true that the churches are well attend
ed, but largoly hy womon and chil
dren. The in on give of thoir moans
and think that enough. - Through this
mistaken idea of Christianity the men
seem to be hoping against hope that
in soino manner they will be able to
wiggle thoir way through the pearly
gates purchase the right to an etern
ity witli their maker. This plan
which sooms to be carried on success
fully on earth will got ah awful sot
back at tho end of time. It's attend
ance to sol-vices and personal atten
tion to tho duties of christian work
on earth that nro neoded to build up a
proper foundation for the fnture life.
The Sabbath is truly a day of rest,
but absolute indolence is not the fit
ting observance of tho Lord's Day,
noither is it considered by the great
thinkers of tho day a wiso plan to
gloat on that day in abject revelry.
STATE WILL BE BENEFITTED
That the building of tho Hill rail
way into Eastern Oregon is tho great
est step toward a "gro iter Oregon" is
admitted by every thinking man in
the state. That it will open up one
of tho richest sections of country in
the United States is conceded by
every ono. This section has long been
held under n strong baud by lack of
transportation facilities and the
states' resources have not boon
brought to the front as thoy will be
when this country has a cliiinoo to
silip its produce to a murket liko it
will have in tho city of Portland. Not
only will this suction ot Oregon leap
to the front but it will bo tho moans
of thousands ot dollars coming into
Portland and from Micro it will bo
distributed all ovor the state and will
also call for more ships to enrry tho
vast quuantity of produco that will
come from that lioretofnro barren
oountry to the different markets of
the world. Portland will bo brought
nioro into light as a place whore pur
chasers of largo anion nts of our vari
ous products will bo able to come and
purohase and find easy and cheap
transportation to any part of tho globe
they may wish to ship to.
Buy Home-Made Goods
Inquiries sent broadcast f how that
all communities in tho Northwest
want factories. This is a good sign
and showB that each municipality is
alive to the importance of local in
dustries. The slognu, "Key Uoino
Mitdu Uooils," is being adopted every
where and it will prove to bo one of
the best factory stimulators ever con
ceivod. Manufacturers looking for
new silos will prefer those localities
where thoy are certain of homo sup
port. If the presoiiNt energy to ob
tain more factories is cuiitinuod dur
ing the next decade, there is no re
anon why the Northwest will not bo
como the centosr of us many indus
tries as are found in Now England
today. Portland Abstract.
Lumbering mon contend that rail
ways operating in tlio timbered aroas

sible caution to prevent forest fires.

"THE SCHOOL
Tenth and Morrison, Portland, Oregon 8 8 A. P. Armstrong LL.B., Principal
Old in years, new in methods, admittedly the high-standard
commercial school of the Northwest. Open all the year. More
calls for help than wc can meet position certain. Class and
individual instruction. Bookkeeping from written forms and by
office practice. Shorthand that excels in every respect. Special
penmanship department. Write for illustrated catalogue.
The law requires all locomotives to
be eouioped with spark arresters and
it is said that this requirement is not
eenerallv Tobserved. But better still,
the timbermen say, it wonld be if the
railways could be induced to use oil as
fuel. Then there would be no Bparks
to set fire to timber adjoining the
right-of-way. Campers who fail to
put out their fires, are also the cause
of many forest fires. Losses this year
have been heavy, despite the activity
of the Washington Forest Fire Asocia
tiou; but its campaign is beignning to
make headway.
Before a largo meeting of the Se
attle Chamber of Commerce rreoently,
J. A. Pentou of Cleveland, O. . secre
tary of the American Merchant Ma
rine Leaguo, discussed the necessity
for revising our Bhipping laws. He
called attention to the fact that the
country is reaching out for more ?fr-
eign trade all the time, but depending
upon foreign ship owners to oarry our
products to their destination. But
the needs of a merchant marine are
being considered more seriously now,
he said and there is proBnect that
some remedial legislation will be en
acted soon.. For this change Mr.
Ponton said that Congressman W. fci.
Humphrey of Washington is respon
sible more than any one other person.
Kailroad officials declare that
there will be no material let-up in the
westward migration for another
month. Tho one way colonist rates
now in effort are being taken advan
tage of by many prospective locators
in the Northwest and a 'steady stream
of nowcomors continues to pour into
Idaho, Oregon and Wyoming. As a
result of this condition, the Alaska-yukon-Paciflo
Expositionn manage
ment is confident that the closing
month of tho fair will be the largest
in point ot attendance. With this in
mind, all arrangements are beiug
made to give the late comers tltt best
show of all.
The roceut visit of the honorary
Japanese Commercial Commission to
the Northwest, is bound to have its
good results in a business way. The
trade experts made copious notes of
the manufactured products originat
ing hore, and it is curtain that orders
will dovelop within a . reasonable
time after the commissioners' return
to their home on completing the throe
mouths' tour of the oountry. Thoy
came as emmissaries of peace and de
termined to do everything in their
power to cement the good will ex
isting botwoon both countries.
The Washington correspondent for

A livostock judging contest for
young men under 20 years of age will
be held at the A-Y-P livostock show
on September 27 or 28. The agricul
tural colleges of Oregon, Washington,
California, Idaho and Montana, offer
a four year scholarship free to the
youth from their respective Btates
who wins the highoBt tcoro, and a
cash prize will be awarded als.
Separate prizes will be given for ag
ricultural college judging teams.
Oollego students are barred from the
first-mentioned contest.
The boe sting core for rhoumatism
is again coming into prominence. We
should imagine that a few well direct

do wonders in limbering up stiff
muscles for the timo being at loast.

Vacant lands of the state are
bSing settled in a way that has never
before been equaled. A private land
company is opening up a new traot
around Lakeview, the purchasers of
contracts now being on hand there in
large numbers to take part in the
drawing. On Setember loth will start
the Fall colonist movement from the
East, when thousands of new settlers
will reach the state to make their
permanent homes here. The vacant
wheat lands of Central Oregon are be
ing filled up at an unprecedented rate,
the coming of railroads up the lies
chutes being the cause of a big boom
in wheat growing in that great unde
velpoed country. During the past
week a record trip was made into the
vacant lnad about Bend by a party of
settle's who went overland by auto
from Corvallis. The trip was made
from Corvallis to Bend, 150 miles, in
one day and tho next morning mem
bers of the party filed on 320 acre
homesteads near Bend and will en
ease in wheat growing. A tract of
land of 250,000 acros in that district
has just been included in the new 320-
acre homestead law and is proving
very attractive to settlers.
Portland will hold its annual Kose
Festival next June as usual This
was decided during the woek at
mooting of the directors of the Kose
Festival Association when President
Hoyt and Managet Hutchiii were re
elected for another year. Plans have
already been taken up for the 1910
show and exceptional features are
promised. Among the most prominent
attractions likely to be brought there
is a oontost or flying maoluucs. cor
respondence has beeu opened with a
number of noted aviators of this
country and Europe with the result
that prizes will be hung np that
will assure this city of some exciting
speed contests in the air. The auto
mobile races, too, are expected ro De
better than ever and will be author
izod by the Automobile Association of
America. In addition to tneie nig
events there will be a lavish showing
of Oregon s floral wealth in masses of
roses and other features that promise
to make the 1010 festival especially
notable.
What is said to be the highest price
paid for an apple crop anywhere has
just been closed for the Hood River
and Mosior Valley yields. J. A
Steinhardt of the fruit buying firm of
Steinhardt & K"Ily, New York City,
visited both districts the past week
and contracted for the entire yield of
the Mosier and Hood River valleys it
better than $2.50 per box. As the
total crop will run up to about 150
carloads, the contract just made will
put more tlin $200,000 into the pockets
of apple growers in these two dis
tricts.

SIGNS OF PROGRESS
Sheridan Sun : While Johnny Wnite,
a young man employed on W. A.
Turnridge's paloe on the Upper Willa
tnina, was working on a hillside last
week he unearthed a petrified por
tion of some extinct animal that
very much resembles a jaw bone. It
is something over 16 inches iu length,
6 1-2 inches broad and about three
inches thick and lias about 12 oorru
gations on the underside that resemble
teeth. Ou the upper side near the
tip are two projecting horns like a
rhinoceros with smllor horns farther
back.
Property values in aud around Fl r
ence are going up on account of the
prospects of bnildiug the road and
of the harbor improvement, and
there promises to be a veritable boom
there in the not far di.-taut future.
There are strange men arriving there
everyday fromp and down the coast,
who have heard of Florence as a com
ing seaport, much publicity having
beeu given the town through the fact
that the people have voted bonds
to improve the harbor, and. through
agitation for the railroad from Eu
gene. Newberg EuterpriBO : That we
dou't forget that the milk condenser is
a cood rhinir for Newberff. WB will
say that they average paying the
farmers about three and a third thou
dollars a month for milk. This is

and the indications are that it will
