STILL A WORLD This country is
GRANARY maintaining its position
as one of the chief food
supply nations of the world, and the
record for the present year, accord
ing to a report just issued by the
government bureau of foreign and do
mestic commerce, will slightly exceed
that of 1911 in the matter of expor
tation of foodstuffs.
It is true that we do not occupy
the pre-eminent position that we did
a few decades ago. The demands of
the domestic market have grown
. greater with our increase in popula
tion, but we are still supplying the
world with a large portion of its
food.
The fact that we do this shows
again that the high prices for articles
of food which prevail at the present
time are not primarily due to domes
tic causes, but to a world condition,
and although palliatives for this con
dition may be found and .remedied in
the way of greater thrift supon the
part of our people my effect some re
duction in living cost, it is plainly
apparent that they are not wholly
sufficient.
This fact should have influence
with the tariff tinkers. Free trade
and tariff for revenue do not consti
tute a panacea, for we export food
stuffs tc low tariff nations, and so

f
Work and Play Are the
Two Best Things
of
By WILLIAM LOWE BRYAN.
'HE TWO MOST VALUABLE
AWAY FROM THE FEELINGS WHICH ARE WRONG ARE
WORK AND PLAY.
It is of the utmost importance in yonr lives that you
SHALL XOT BE THE VICTIMS OF FIVE MINUTES OF
WROXG HEARTED FEELINGS. This life is full of danger, and
it seems to be just a choice of dangers every day. But one of the
greatest dangers before us all along the course of life is that in some
sudden, unlooked for five minutes we shall wrong ourselves for life.
PLAY IS MOST NECESSARY FOR THOSE WHO ARE NO LONGER
CHILDREN. IT IS ESSENTIAL FOR THE HEALTH OF THE SOUL
THAT WE SHOULD KEEP ON CARING TO PLAY. WHEN YOU HAVE
REACHED THE POINT WHERE YOU DO NOT WANT TO PLAY IT
IS A SIGN OF OLD AGE. ; - J. :
The fundamental distraction from evil is WORK. Work is by
all means the best thing. I do not quite see why it was ever thought
of as a curse. It is the greatest blessing there is for children. Chil
dren and savages are naturally lazy.
The most important thing the civilized children have to do is to
LEARN" TO WORK whether they feel like it or not It is true that
work is the great saver of the feelings and dispositions of those who
are no longer young. It is ONE OF THE COMPENSATIONS
OF POVERTY, and poverty is not an easy thing nor a light thing
nor an unimportant thing. It is a terrible thing. But it is one of the
compensations of poverty that you HAVE TO WORK and that you
cannot brood too much on your sorrows.

STREET CLEAN suggest that Main
Street be kept as
clean as it is possible to keep a
street. Of course it is a difficult mat
ter to keep a street that has as much
traffic on it as this one clean. But,
inasmuch as this is the one great
street of the town, every effort should
be made to have it a model of clean
liness.' Of course the men who clean
it at night should not be responsible
for its conditio in the afternoon.
They do their work well, but refuse
accumulates rapidly and it would not
be a bad idea to have it cleaned dur
ing the day. Chief of Police Shaw
keeps the prisoners in the city jail
busy cleaning streets, but .they are
worked mostly on side streets. These
streets if cleaned once' a week are
kept in good condition, but Main
Street, the chief thoroughfare of the
city; the one, and only one that vis
itors see, if cleaned twice every. 24
hours would still need cleaning. It
would be to the , advantage of the
city's appearance if cleaners were
kept "upon it continuously. The
streets of the city are judged by the
condition of Main Street. Main Street
should be kept clean.

FORUM OF THE PEOPLE
FISHERMAN FIGHTS BILL.
OREGON CITT, Feb. 3. (Editor
of the Enterprise.) The bill intro
duced by Representative Olsen,, to
close the Willamette River to net at
hthe mouth of the Clackamas River ap-1
pears to be only one more step to
ward closing the river entirely to net
fishing and taking away from Clack
amas County one .of its natural re

season. The bill is , favored by the
Master Fish Warden. The fishermen
Lof the Willamette River have had
seasons shortened from time to time
until there is little profit in the fish
ing for us and have been forced to
spend our hard earned money on court
fees for the whims of a few men and
wealthy canners who seemingly don't
want us to fish at all If this bill
should become a law, it prevents us
f rom fishing some of our best grounds
and works a severe hardship on us.
We could submit to this with more
grace were the plan to furnish more
fish for hatchery work, but for years
large numbers have worked their way
over the falls and then comes reports
of new stations being established by
the Master Fish Warden, Mr. Clanton,
and- large sums, in fact our money,
being expended and still no large in
crease in eggs collected. The fish
probably escaping through defective
' racks, spawn naturally, and their
young on the way back to the ocean
must pass through the wheels at Ore
gon City as no water passes over the
Willamette falls during those months
when the fry are passing down
stream. Thus foiling what we were
told the Bonneville hatchery was con
structed for, to take care of eggs col
lected on rivers above large and nec
essary power plants. W.e sincerely
hope our representatives and senator
from this county will see that this
bill fails to become a law.

ADVERTISING
"Shall we advertise?" That ques
tion has often been asked. It is a
natural -question the new business
organization faces, or which pre
sents itself at the beginning of the
year to the staid and successful com
pany. Men know that legitimate
advertising brings - returns in the
business world today men .; can
not successfully contend that there
is no value in publicity.,.
"Shall we advertise?" That ques
tion is up to the church authorities,
to the minister or his church board.
It is not frequently asked as it ought
to be. Does it -pay? It pays else
where; it ought to pay here. Why
not? Some one has said "The Secret
gospel's sake is the same as that of
successful advertising of the mer
chant: 'Keeping everlastingly at it
brings success.' " It is a truism that
the church must have publicity. If
an organization shuts itself up with
in itself it will die.- There is no
earthly power which can save it and
it will be too dead for any heavenly
power to resurrect. Of what ' use
would it be anyway? The members
of the church advertise it. They do
this in various ways, but they ought
to' go out and tell of its work and its
sources of power and its ' means of
Cards, handbills, framed announce
ments, bulletins, all bring success.
Perhaps the most efficient means of
advertising today is through the
"press.". Newspapers and newspa
per men are kindly toward the church
In this city.for instance, the news
papers ae valuable allies of the
church, interested with them in that
which goes to make life nobler and
better and larger. The church should
show its appreciation of this great
service.
"But can we afford it?" says some
one. If you have "goods" on the
shelves, advertise. If you have
"goods" in the pulpit, advertise. If
you have "goods" in the church, let
the story he known. If you have not
anything worth whilev ' keep -"' very
quiet or make a very thorough in
vestigation of the stock. ' Take -an
inventory preparatory to putting in
a new stock. -
Of course advertising in any line
ought to be legitimate. Any inan

Spineless Cactus and Cobless

ggpr
ft kfd0m
SPINELESS cactus and cobless corn truly they are appropriate to the
- age of wireless telegraphy and stepless electric cars. No one can
deny that Luther Burbank. the "plant wizard." indeed ranks with

who advertises ought to be honest.
If a man juggles in his advertising
some day he will be discovered and
then, his advertising will be a farce.
The mean thing often comes back.
An advertisement may be a "boomer
ang." Let a man be square and
straight in advertising. This caution
needs to be offered to church adver
tisers. Let the advertisement be
sane and sound, plain and straight;
it may be "catch''' but it can always
be honest. Such advertising will
command the respect of the public,
will win commendation from men of
sound business sagacity and will do
good to all .and will help build up
the church.
The church can afford it and it will
pay. Give the people a chance to
hear and see. Put the advertising
expense into, the "buget." You can
hot afford not to do it. It will increase
the collections ; it increases the atten
dance; will increase " the influence
and the power of the church in the
community. ADVERTISE! IT
WILL PAY!
