This branch or agriculture is prob

for women inasmuch as it requires

it is hard for a woman to depend en

ake orders from a woman.
If a woman can study the subject
thoroughly until she knows well how

as strong, and if she has the ability
to manage men's labor skillfully, there
is no reason why she may not succeed
at it as well as a man for fruit will

Either in the agricultural college or

er all the details of pruning, spraying,
picking, and packing shouftl be learn
ed, as well as the kinds of fruit best
adapted to the climate, soil and market
available. The matter of help and
transportation should be determined
before embarking in any certain local
ity.
In making a beginning in this busi
ness it is well to have expert advice,
such as may be gotten at the agricul
tural college, and also to talk with
other fruit growers in the immediate
vicinity.
By adding) small fruits such as ber
ries, etc., and even grains ana garden
truck and some stock and bees, while
the trees are growing, the land may be-
made profitable in the first year. It
takes not less than twenty-five acres
to make a desirable fruit farm and
from 500 to. 1000 trees to make a good
business.
This is good work for the daughter
on the farm to begin under her father's
care that the business may grow as
she is growing in knowledge and skill
in it-

Women's Clubs and Teachers' Or

Better Speech, and are stressing the
idea in the week November 6-12.
Strange that, while we would not thinij
of appearing in public in ragged' suit,
shabby hat, nor sloppy shoes, we art?
not' ashamed to use language on that
slovenly level,' trampish instead of
royal. We even "shy off from the
proper word which occurs to us, and
cast about, mentally for a monosyllable
a democratic street gamin, linguistical
ly, lest we be though prudish and make
a' chasm between ourselves and
friends. Carelessness accounts for t.
large per cent of grammatical errors,
and the rudiments of correct speeen
should be more thoroughly taught in
the tchools to drill out of us the mis
takes among which we were reared
On the other hand, our language it
self needs bettering: F"rinstance, it
is sadly lacking in two Words: one
which means "aint" and one which
represents collectively ' hej she, or it "
"Am-I-nof is entirely too formal, and
what else can you say? An ingenius
soul once tried to introduce "dan" to
take the place of "he-she-or-it." Wc
merely jeered at him. It behooves
us derisive ones t invent something
better.
Culture Clubs, et al.
A club may be a kind of Univer- j
tity extension. It may strengthen the
spirit to meet the daily tatks with
courage; it may widen the outlook aud
deepen wisdom: it may train leaders
Such a club has every reason for be
ing. A poem like Emerson's "Days"
may direct life. A play like Gals
worthy's "Justice" may reveal more of
a problem than a prison report. And
when we study such things together I
we often gi?t more out of them than
when we study them alone. But Uieic
are clubs that make of their study a
lit'Je ingrowing circle, happily content
with themselves, but actually narrow
ing sympathy and understanding ot
their communities. This is not culture.
The ideal club is both active and
studious. Study without action runs
a risk of snobbishness; action without
information runs a risk of muddling

many needed improvements through
out the city which it was found diffi
cult to include. Items decided upon
were Salaries, $1440; Labor, $3560;
Supplies, $3,000. The remaining $7,0;0
was left to the council to budget, for
the reason that a portion of this sum
may have to be ured toward the tem
porary Willamette river bridge, which
cannot be ascertained until after tn
ugreement is reached with the county
court. Out or this $7,000 will hava
to come provision for all of the bridge
repairs within the city limita and all
of the permanent improvements made
on main arteries. It was pointed out
that should the proposed special road
tax fail, 110 funds for this purpose
would be provided.
A special seven mill tax was voted
some years agrj for tho retirement oC
the $275,000 general fund bonds. This
year $21,000 wi 1 he realize! cn thi'j
tax, divided approximately in half for
the payment of principal and interest.

Asking that the city administration
take immediate action toward enforc
ing the prohibition regulations' with
the end in view of preventing a re
currance of the condition said to havu
existed at the Armistice day dance, the
local post of the American Legion
went on record Monday night with a
stroDg resolution and a committee t-j
back it up. Following tbe reports that
a number of intoxicated youths attend
ed the dance given by the auxiliary of
the post, members investigated aad
the resolution is based on tjheir belief
that the city authorities were lax in
enfoicing the law.

The following committee was ap
pointed to follow tile matter up, W. K.
Hempstead, William R. Logus. M- R.
Cooper, Arthur . Beattie, and Phil
Hammond.
The resolution a unanimously pass
ed, reads:
"Whereas the Woman's Auxiliary of
the American Legion gave a dance on
November 11, 1921, Armistice Day. i:i
Busch's Hall in Oregon City, at whic;
dance a number o; persons not mem '
bers of tfhe American Legion become
intoxicated and conducted themselves

"Whereas the American Legion has
been informed that intoxicating liquor
was sold near the premises, and
"Whereas the American Legion has
learned that intoxicated persons have
frequented many dances given in this
city, which is common knowledge here.
and ,
Whereas no police are ever detail
ed to enforce law and order at dances.
and police protection and enforcement
of the prohibition law is exceedingly
lax and inadequate in this municipali
ty, now
"Therefore be It resolved by Willam- .
ette Falls Post No. 5 of the American
Legion that we publicly protest against
these conditions, and demand that the
City Council of Oregon City at once,
take strenuous! actdon to enforce the
prohibitory law and the principals of
common decency, and that citizens at

and that Oregon City be cleaned ur of

for the housekeeper, with a few simple
principles in mind, to accomplish th
leat, without having to talk learnedly
of "calories" and such mysterloiu

become practical to most of us.
We must know something of what
he body needs and something oi th
composition of foods, and then see
that it has some of each needful sf.rt
each day. Each meal does not have
to bo balanced. If the day's ration is
balanced, that is sufficient
The body'si needs are three: buildiii;,
foods, energy foods, regulating foods.
No one article of diet is entirely in
one clas as' foods are composite and
contain something which is upbuild
ing, something energy supplying and
something regulating; but for con
venience we class foods according as
they are main sources of the food
element they provide.
To provide a balanced ration choos,
one article from each of the three
followin groups.
Building Foods-
Meats', fowl, fish
Milk, whole, skimmed,- buttermilk.
Eggs. b ,
Cheese.
s Beans, peas, lentils.

neighbors. Such unpleasant feature
should be curbed by law. Many cities
are doing this.
The keeping of pigs, or of a filthy
chicken coop, or dirty barn, or trash
pile, or outdoor toilet; the permitting
of a factory chimney to belch forth
smoke; the making of unnecessary and
disturbing noises; or the establishing
of a foul smelling industry tn a resi
dential district all these may be pro
hibited by law and are in many cities.
The community is our larger home
and the woman citizen should give to
it of her housewifely care to keep it
a sweet, and wholesome abode for her
family. This cannot be dcre as indi
viduals but only in groups. "
