Pacific University at Forest Grove Is making: preparations for an educational exhibit. The cordiality of the business men and farmers in support of the women Insures the success of the enterprise. The plans for the exhibit have not been fully matured, but the present purpose Is to make displays of different products on special days in their season. Small jars of canned fruit will be given away, and prunes in some form will probably be served. It Is the purpose to arrange excursions from Portland to various points in the county to show our Eastern visitors the fertile fields, green-clad hills, giant trees, the fragrant, uncqualed roses, and the peace and plenty of tho Pacific Coast of Oregon and of our own "Washington County. MRS. -WALTER HOGE. Meatpacking . Center. REALLY tlie only check on the expan sion of tho livestock Industry In Ore con Is the restricted home market and the distance from any outside market There are three packing-houses in the state, but the proportion of hogs packed Is not in proportion to that of cattle and sheep, the annual shipments of pork products from tho East aggregating about 100.000,000 pounds a year. Yet Oregon has admirable scope for growing hogs and with an ade quate home market could double the product In one year. With more packing-houses to supply the whole consumption of the Pacific Coast and the Orient, Portland would enjoy the advantage over the East of the freight on meat from the Missouri River west, which In H.62& per 100 pounds. In supplying California it would also gain the differ ence between the rato from Chicago, much is $2, and the small local rate from Portland to Han PrancUco. At the. same time the stockmen of Oregon would save 70 cents per 100 pounds In freight and shrinkage on the 6tock they now ship to Eastern packing centers. The rapid growth in population of the Pacific States assures an expanding mar ket to the industry, while ocean shipments can be made to Alaska, Hawaii and the Orient. It is universally recognized that tho close of the present war will mark the opening of an era of unprecedented growth in trans-Pacific commerce, accom panied by an increased consumption of meat by the Orientals and by the Euro pean colonies on that side of the ocean. This opportunity has been recognized by home capitalists, who have Joined bands with J. J. Cahlll, an experienced packing house manager, in organizing the Colum bia Basin Stock-Yards Company, and will thi6 year erect a large, modern plant in Portland.
