The real summer began on the
20th of this month.
Probably no country in the world
has such a delightful summer climate
as Western Oregon.
Without frightful and destructive
storms, no insect pests, an abundance
of pure, cool water on every hand,
and cool refreshing nights, the life of
the summer camper is one long
sweet song. Is it any wonder they
enjoy it?
where they soon become physically
weak. The longest street in the
world is said to be Halsted streeHn
Chicago, and this is a veritable rot
ten row largely occupied by disorder
ly houses, where thousands of wo
men meet with destruction or lead
degraded and miserable lives in old
age.
We hear a good deal about con
serving natural resources and better
means for breeding our livestock
Why is it we hear so little about con
serving the lives of our people, 60
percent of whom die before they at
tain the age of one year?
Anything apparently is right, if it
is profitable, and it is so easy to
muzzle the press and put a padlock
tm the preachers' lips. So! The
most profitable crop we produce to
day is just folks plain everyday
folks, and the least we exercise any
care or torethought about.
Lotitia Basbauld, a great poetess
once, wrote: "Man is the noblest pro
duct our realms supply, and souls are
ripened in our northern sky." It is
time high time we quit listening to
the wild gibberish of our Hilly Sun
days and our theological gentlemen,
who are hollering their heads off
about some threadbare doctrine, whit
thousands of their fellow beings are
in dire want.
A Portland paper contains an ar
ticle in a recent issue, derived from

tofore largely cultivated and found
growing in Bulgaria and Asia Minor.
Fully $1200 can bo obtained from a
single acre of these roses and it is a
foregone conclusion that they thrive
here as well as anywhere in the
world. Cultivating such flowers
would also give a great deal of pleas
ant occumen to our women and girls
and a healthy one, also allowing our
young girls to become strong, healthy
women, fitting them for the respons
ible and highly important positions
of wives and mothers, and providing
strong and capable people for future
generations.
Now we crowd our young girls in
to abominuble sweat shops and de
partment stores, and worse places,;
Mr. Bowman at the Arrah Wan
nah Hotel above Brightwood, has en
gaged extensively in the raising of
Eastern brook trout, and hits three
ponds, one of which is a breeding
pond, and the others feeding ponds
lor dmerent sized fish, lie now has
several thousand largo enough to fry,
and when anyone wants fresh trout
for a moal it is but a matter of a mo
ment to get them out of the pond.
Here is another business ready for
our idle money lying in Portland
banks. These fish can be raised by
the millions in any of these streams,
which never burst their banks, and
they command a ready market at any
time, without fear of there being an
over-supply.

POST MOURNS LOSS
Resolutions on Death of Comrade Da
vies Spread on Minute Book
Comrades George Harding, Frank
Moore and A. J. Hoffel, of Meade
Post No. 2, G. A. R., have sent to the
Courier the following words of
mourning and appreciation in regard
to the late D. H. Davies, membsr of
the post, who died recently.
The last sad rites have been per
formed over the remains of another
gallant comrade, and he now sleeps
the sleep that knows no awakening.
Comrade D. H. Davies, who died at
his late residence in Oregon City on
.Tune 15, 1915, was one of our most
honored and esteemed members, and
the removal of his name from our
muster roll causes inexpressible grief
to all our members. Comrade Da
vies came to Oregon City from Wis
consin about four years ago and has
been an honored and esteemed resi
dent of our city ever since. Comrade
Davies was born in Wales in 18,'iG,
but came to the United States at an
early date, and when he found that
the liberties of his adopted country
were endangered placed his name on
the rolls of the 22nd Wisconsin in
fantry and served until the close of
the war with credit to himself and
honor to the great State in whose
services he enlisted. No better or
truer soldier ever shouldered gun and
his heart was wholly in the cause for
which he fought. He lived for more
than half a century after the close
of the great struggle, and when he
died he had the proud satisfaction of
knowing that the country for which
he risked his life had enjoyed fifty
years of peace and prosperity such
as has been vouchafed to no other
nation since the dawn of civilization.
Comrade Davies was a man of unim
peachable character, and we all loved
him, and while we mourn the great
loss which our organization hasj re
moval from our midst, we can but
feel that the setting sun of this life
for him was the dawn of the perfect
day in which the sun shall never
set and life becomes the fulfillment
of earthly hopes. To the surviving
relatives of our deceased comrade
this Post tenders its sincerest sym
pathy in this their hours of greatest
affliction.

Colfax, Washington, Appears to be
Paradise for Farmers
There are more automobiles owned
by farmers in the vicinity of Colfax
than in any other agricultural regions
of the northwest, according to C. R.
Hill, western representative of the
United States Steel Products com
pany. "When I was in Colfax last Sat
urday afternoon the chief of police
told me there were 305 farmers' auto
mobiles lined along the curbs in the
principal streets and that from 75
to 100 more had been there earlier in
the day," said Mr. Hill. "The cars
ranged from two-passenger runa
bouts to immense seven-passenger
touring cars, many of them as fine
machines as can be found in any
large city, and there were also a num
ber of heavy auto trucks, a type of
self-propelled vehicle that is coming
more and more into favor with agriculturists.''
