Union Meeting at Busch
Hall Wins Monster Crowd
A monster crowd filled Busch's hall
at a public meeting called by the strik
ing union Saturday night The crowd
was noticeable for the large number
of women both young and old.
Q. W. Hudgens, a former employe
of the mills spoke on Democracy or;
the right of labor to be organized and
representated in the legislatures of
the country. He also paid his respects
to some of the members of the Ldve
Wires In commenting on the report of
the meeting at the Commercial club.
Ha was followed by Ed Mayer, a
member of the union committee whose ! high in office who had stated that the

REDUCING COSTS OF DISTRIBUTION
Expert opinion seems to place the
weight of blame for high distribution
costs upon the retail grocer. Yet
there Is no harder worked man in
the community, and he is not getting
rich. They rise early and keep open
late. They are the slaves of the
housewives as they go round the cor
ners on one wheel of their little Ford
cars, hurrying to deliver a pound, of
butter to some woman who has for
gotten to order It
The New York Food Commission
says that 33 per cent of food costs Is
put on by the local grocer. That Is,
when you pay $1.00 for an article. It
cost hut 67c at the railroad station
in you own town. 33c is the cost of
getting it to your back door.
The delivery system is of course a
prime element In this high charge. In
large towns dozens of delivery teams

To cut out the high costs of solicit

chain stores have within recent years
become very general. In many large
cities there are an enormous number
of these stores, which are giving the
independent grocers very hard com
petition. Being practically branches
of wholesale houses, they say they get
an advantage in buying. On the us
ual basis of no delivery, no soliciting,
and cash payments, they are in a posi
tion to make a saving.
Yet the progressive independent
grocer has its own chance to make
good. It will always find an element
of people that will pay good prices to
have everything delivered, and who
are somewhat indifferent to prices if

a few remarks on compulsory arbitra

He was followed by Dr. Mllligen,
who cautioned the union in seeking
their rights, not to encroach on the
rights of others and that they go
about the prosecution of their de

meeting closed with an address by
President Hartwlg, of the State Feder

The Clackamas County Guernsey
Cattle Club, organized in Clackamas
County In August, with u large num
ber of members, has purchased thirty
five head of thoroughbred Guernseys
in Wisconsin. They will arrive here
the latter part of this month. These
cattle were selected by E. L. West
over, dairy husbandman, of the Ore
gon Agricultural College, aud by J. T.
Whalley, of Portland, who were sent
East by the club to make the selec
tion of the thoroughbreds. Fourteen
members of the club have signed for
this carload of stock, which will be
distributed upon their arrival.
'ord was received from Mr. West
over on Tuesday that he and Mr.
Whalley had selected the cattle. In
his letter, Mr. Westover states, "We
have purchased eight head ot pure
bred heifers from one breeder at
Whitewater. Wisconsin, and these aro
certainly wonders. Had" it not been
for taking the whole bunch, and that
going into one locality, we could have
never secured them. They are all
aW grow my amuwis. great sirengui
of constitution, and bavin especially
good udders. They are all daughters
of one bull. Thi3 breeder from whom
we purchased these animals, has ?.",
of this bull-s daughters 0n test that
j are going at the rate of 450 to 700
! pounds butter fat at two and three
j years old. This bull's dam has a ree
I or of 615 pounds of fat as a two-year-!
old."
' Those eight heifers that have bee::
purchased by the Clackamas County
Guernsey Club are hcay with calf
to a bul! whose dam and grand dam
have a yearly record of ssT.j pounds
Qf butter fat each This bu1! while
yet young, is getting some mighty
fine calves all straight individuals
showing lots of quality, and are espe
cially uniform in conformation.
"While at the National Dairy Show,
we learned that this bull has a sister
that stantLs a vepy sod cham e of
breaking the world a record for but
j terfat production, it' she keeps up her
! present rate of production. She is
expected to produce over 1200 pounds
of butterfat at least.
"We have secured the eight heifers
i for the Clackamas County. Guernsey
j Club at a very reasonable price. We
! are selecting the very best animals
we can get, and selecting animals
which we feel assured that will pay
a big dividend on the mW-y invested
in them in their producTion of the
pail."

Those Blankets
In a letter to friends on the campus,
Kent R. Wilson, 18, former Oregon
City track star, and now with the mod
leal corps at Camp Greene, N. C.
writes that North Carolina may have
balmy southern weather In the day
time, but "it's awful cold at night,"
and incloses this poem to prove it:
Me and my two thin blankets,
As thin as a slice of hum.
A Gorman spy was likely tho guy
Who made 'em for Undo Sum.
How did I sleep? Don't kid me,
My bedtlek is filled with straw
And lumps and humps and big fat
bumps
That punched me till I'm all raw.
You could use 'em tor porous I lusters.
Or maybe to strain tho soup.
My pillow's my shoes when I try to
snooie -
And I've chilblains, cough and the
croup.
Me and my two thin blankets,
Bundled up under my chin
Yes, a German spy was likely the guy,
And gosh! but ha made m thin.
