It is about time that the business men of the city through the Terminal Rate Association subscribe their $100 to $500 each and proceed with the mat ter as did Santa Rosa. Their appli cation was filed early in May decis ion rendered in July and the rates ap plicable Aug. 15, 1912. Almost a record for a case before any court or commission. The railroads of the coast have pro- 8ESma8 There Isn't Ey Half Enough Grown on HARRIS. wvTJti u i Banker Our Far IBS For the Space We Utilize 'HE duty of country bankers methods. In spite of the grass" slogan the average corn and wheat, is actually less than it was forty years ago, and it is evident that SOMETHING IS WRCWG. Circumstances have produced A EACE OF SOIL ROBBERS, not because of any inherent lack of moral purpose in the tiller of the soil, but on account of the speculative element, which has been and still is a curse to permanent agriculture. The rolling stone had gath ered the most moss. Our apparent agricultural prosperity is due to the rise of the price of land. Land speculators have grown rich. A few farmers have won a competence from the soil, but most of them have little profit to Ehow aside from that of the advance in the values of their farms, while the average farmer makes but a bare living. We have been capitaliz ing our soil fertility and not adding to its assets. e n WE HAVE SCARCELY GIVEN A THOUGHT TO OUR LARGE DOR MANT UNEMPLOYED SOIL FERTILITY. BY DORMANT FERTILITY I MEAN THIS: WE RAISE THE WHEAT CROP OF THIS COUNTRY ON FIFTY MILLION ACRES, WITH AN AVERAGE OF 13.7 BUSHELS TO THE ACRE, WHILE THE FARMERS OF SEVERAL COUNTRIES OF EUROPE ON THOUSAND YEAR FARMED LAND AVERAGE TWENTY-SIX TO FORTY BUSHELS. e s We have as good or better land, tools, soil, brains, etc., but we are not properly employing any of these factors. We have population clubs working for increased population. Why not have BUSHEL CLUBS TO INCREASE THE ACRE AND TOTAL YIELD OF OUR FARM PRODUCT? Advocate the creation of a soil as well as . a bank reserve.. mised to see Oregon City's case through without application to the commission but they are slow to act. Oregon City has more natural reas ons for terminal rates than other Pa cific Coast point, every reason that Santa Rosa showed and as many more but if Oregon City merchants do not come forward with the wherewithal, of course the association must await the pleasure of the Southern Pacific Company. Terminal rates will do more for Ore gon City than most people think. "fe are now talking of new industries. They'll come of their own accord when the freight rate matter is settled and thev won't ask for bonuses eith er. UNIFORM TAXATION A vote against it prolongs prosper ity. A vote for it kills the state. Com mon sense says so. The constitution of the United States provides "taxation of all prop erty by a uniform rule" and Walkers' American law states in the enumerat ed powers: "The intention manifestly Js, to re quire all property of every description whether of individuals or corporations to be taxed by a uniform rule, accord ing to its actual money value." How can Single Tax or Graduated Single Tax be termed "taxation by a uniform rule?" As outlined in a let ter published recently in this paper, your brother might have as much pro perty as you have, paying no tax while you pay a very large sum. His proper ty being in a number of counties while yours is all in one. Can anyone justify the scheme oth er than a duty of its father in order that he might keep a client? If the man who has preferred charges against Officer Green called the policeman the name Green says he was calied, the Morning Enterprise is inclined to the opinion that the offi cer's actions thereafter were just about what any other self-respecting citizen's would have been.

Nails One Against the Right Field PDtAMi-Dv IIDA ?M1 I BY MILK EXPERT (From Hoard's Dairyman) Don't ship your cream, farmer, or churn it at home in the belief that it will pay you better than taking it to the creamery. There is nothing that will pay you better than the coopera tive creamery in your own neighbor hood. There are nearly a thousand co-operative creameries in Minnesota. Why are there so many, if they are not the best way for the farmer to manufact ure and sell his butter? Where the first built creameries are becoming old and worn-out, you will find the farm ers building new ones, some of .them costing as high as ten thousand dol lars. They build again because they have paid, and farmer, your co-operative creamery will pay too, if every farmer does the square thing by it. . A creamery can succeed where there are 400 or more cows, if all the farmers will take their cream there. Co-operation means working together for the good of all. A co-operative creamery cannot do its best when a number of farmers are .working against it, and if you are not taking your cream there you are against it. "He who is not with me is against me." Don't think the big company in the city that wants you to ship cream will pay you better. They may for a while in order to get you away from the local creamery. The state has recently arrested the proprietors of a big city creamery for unfair compe tion. They were paying less than cream was worth to the farmers in one community where there was no creamery, and paying more than cream was worth in another commun ity where the farmers had a creamery. They were stealing from one farmer to fool another. Don't think you can make more by churning at home and selling the but ter. When you do that, suppose all the farmers would do the same. How much could you get for your butter when every other farmer would be in competition with you? Have you ev er seen butter stacked up in the store and the merchant not knowing what to do with it? You are doing your best to bring back this condition when you pull away from the creamery and churn at home. Don't think the co-operative cream ery is cheating you. They have no object in cheating. They pay the farmers all there is over the cost of manufacturing. The officers are anx ious for the creamery to succeed and are generally doing their best. They try to get the best buttermaker pos sible. If you think anything is wrong don't quit, but notify the secretary of the creamery. Mistakes are apt to occur. You are just as apt to make a mistake in your figuring as the creamery is. If the creamery has made a mistake the officers will cor rect it. A successful co-operative creamery will increase tjie valuation of your farm. It will help you in many ways that you may not see now. Be a good soldier and get into the battle and fight it out. Every co-operative cream ery has had the same trouble on the start and there would not be a cream ery in the state today if every man quit when he thought something was wrong. Help to make thing right. The timbered section of Northern Minnesota will be the greatest dairy section of Minnesota. Hundreds of creameries will be built within the next ten years if the farmers work to gether in co-operation. If they don't their children will have to build the creameries, but it is a fine thing for a young man to look back and be able to say, "My father helped to lay the" cornerstone of this creamery. He was a leader in co-operation and made farming such that I am glad to fol low his calling." There are young men who say, "Well, the old man kill ed mother with work and drove us all off the farm as soon as we could get away." He was bound to stick to his own way of doing things.' The creamery is the right way of dairying. A. J. McGUIRE. Minnesota Northeast Substation. A Broadway Mystery. There's a mystery in New York's theatrical district. At several of the big offices they're collecting thumb prints of the stars already signed up. Further than the marks are "for the purpose of identification" none of the collectors will give any information about them. "I know what those thumb marks are for,"- said a Broadway loiterer "The managers are going to have the contracts so marked in order to make them more binding." "That's not it." said another. "The managers have probably adopted that method of permitting every star to make bis mark In the profession." New York Telegraph. ' Ho Ctruck, Nevertheless. "1 met jour father last evening and spoke - to hiai about our being mar ried." - "Did hfftrike you favorably?" "Well, not exactly favorably, but rat her n couni tely ." .1 udge.

THE FIRST NATIONAL BANK OF OREGON CITY, OREGON CAPITAL $50,000.00 Transacts a General Banking Buslnes s. Open from $ A. M. to 3 P. M. By "HOP" OREGON CITY MEN ARE READY EOR BIG HUNT There is little doubt that the game in Douglass. County will "beat it" when they get a glimpse of the hunt ing party, composed of Theodore Os mund, T. p. Randall, Ernest P. El liott, Harry S. Moody, Charles Gale and W. R. Logus, of this city, and Dr. Leininger, .of Albany, Oregon, which will leave this city today. All of these men are" members of the Elks lodge except one, and there is no doubt that the Elks in Douglass will receive a warm reception when the party reaches there from the supply of ammunition that is to be taken on the trip. All the men are good shots, and expect to bring home all kinds of game. W. R. Logus has made such a reputation during his service in the militia as captain, that it was decided to have him act as "captain" of the party. He will tell the men when to shoot, how to shoot, and how to climb over the mountains, while Harry Moody will be canvas man. Mr. Moody will direct the men how to erect the tent, and will act as assistant cook to Mr. Gale, the latter being an ex perienced man in the culinary line. E. P .Elliott, the smallest man, bfrt not the youngest by any means, will have charge of the lemonade and root beer as there will be plenty taken along. There will be some "snake bite" medicine also, as venomous rep tiles abound where the party will hunt Several prominent members of the Elks' lodge in Portland, being per sonal friend of the Oregon City Elks, presented some of the choicest bot tles. Theodore Osmund will be secretary and treasurer of the party, and no doubt the money will be well taken care of by Mr. Osmund while the men are in the forests hunting for big game. The matter of arranging the sleeping apartments and the washing of the dishes will be decided upon when camp is pitched. One of the rules of the camp will be against gOs sipping and swearing and only the pur est mountain water will be tolerated. Postmaster Randall has kindly con sented to take full charge of all in coming and outgoing mail, and there is no doubt that he will fill the bill to perfection. Provisions enough to last a regiment are being packed by the party, and one of the members stated that they will find fruit in the ! orchards of Douglass county to satisfy i ... .. . : a ..- .j : : i Charles Gates, and his assistant, Har ry Moody, do not give them sufficient ! food. Dr. Leininger of Albany, will I see that medical attention is not lack ing. The party will be gone aboiit three weeks. f REAL ESTATE TRANSFERS Mary C. and Edward H. Burton to Noah W. G.
