SECOND PRIZE, $2. "Daughter, where are the Allen & Lewli oysters I ordered? Yes, the Diamond W. mayonnaise is missing, too,, and .the Colum bia butter. I declare, my luncheon will be a failure. Why are clerks so careless." "Mother," I called, "it was all my fault. 1 asked Mr. Grocer for them and he re plied: 'We do not carry those lines of goods.' 'Why not,?' I asked, I'm afraid a little exasperated. 'You know they are per fectly delicious, and so fresh. " Mother, I'm really afraid, was rude, too, but I had Just heard Mr. G. telling a travel ing salesman: "Times are so hard," and hiamed everyone from the President down . to the war In China. I couldn't refrain from saying to him : "You expect good times for Oregon and Oregonlans, and yet you pack your shelves with every foreign brand of goods you can get. You pass by our own wholesalers, who have the freshest, most nutritious and cheapest goods on the mar ket. You would give employment to East ern workers and let our strong, healthy men walk the streets, hungry. Doesn't your sense of justice tell you to advertise, sell and give first chance to Oregon products? If help cannot come from within, why ex pect it from without?" Mr. G. is good natured and smilingly re plied: "You have taught me a lesson, miss. Hereafter state as my motto, 'Oregon first.' " VESTA BROSSIER, 430 Mill street, Portland. THIRD PRIZE, $1. The reason all people should buy Oregon made goods is: First Because thev are of excellent quality. Second It is always best to spend our money for home products and keep it to develop our own state. Oregon produces almost everything people need. What ' Is more appetizing for breakfast than hot cakes made of Albers Flapjack flour; some home-grown fruit and Golden West coffee, made in an electric coffee percolater? For luncheon. Otter clam chowder, made with Holly milk and served with Supreme sodas; salad made out of Preferred Stock canned salmon, and for dinner, home-grown vegetables, Columbia brand ham, fried; home-made bread made from Olympic flour, and best Columbia but ter; a dessert made from Diamond W. Jelly powder with Purity cream, whipped? My mother always uses Oregon-made goods, not only here, but when we lived in Nevada. All Allen & Lewis Preferred Stock canned goods were considered the best.

When grandma came from the East to visit us. Mamma said, "I'll have dinner. I know your'e hungry." In 20 minutes mamma called ''dinner" and grandma looked surprised, but was more surprised at everything she ate. Mamma had an Otter clam chowder. Knights dill pickles. Pacific Coast Biscuit Company crackers, rools made of Olympic flour. Pacific Honey Company honey, Pre ferred Stock asparagus and pineapple, Da mascus cream and butter and Golden West coffee. Grandma said, I used to kill a chicken, make pies, spend two hours preparing for company and things didn't taste half so good. There certainly is some secret about this dinner." Mamma said, "Yes, It's the Oregon products. Ail Oregon women cook good meals for their families, so Just give most of the credit to the state for its products." .Grandma said: "I want to live in Oregon, but I must go back East first to tell all the women I know about the easy times Oregon women have and the good things they have to eat. I can't have them keep on working as they do. "Oregon Is the best place I ever was m and the Oregon-made products are cer tainly a blessing to all Its people." LLOYD HUGHET, 1234 Holgate street, Portland. - 1FTH PRIZE, $1. Stop and consider, are you getting the most nutritious food and best clothing for your daily expenditure of money? Look around you and see how end where your grocer buys. Does he pay exhorbitant freight bills, buying from abroad? Listen. You cannot get something for nothing. It's the popular demand of the age. Look the measure square in the face and realize It. When you get a good article you pay for it. Make a study of your daily needs and you will soon see that by buying home products you are buying the freshest and be s, and also helping the farmer and manufacturer. Then, too, you are not pay ing freight charges, for the consumer Is the one who pays. By patronizing home industries yon are establishing a pay roll, the sign of pros perity in a community. Then, too, remember, so long as you have the climate, soil and brains to develop the products and a- ready market, hard times will be unheard of. The Oregonian, in a conservative, honest way, has placed Albers cereals, Holy milk. Portland pure milk, Harradon's biscuits Co lumbia brands before the public. Hundreds now use them who were hitherto ignorant of their existence, and are thoroughly satis fied. Lets each of us In our small way make this advertising campaign a still greater success by using only home products, adver tising their use. It's the only way to a fairer, better Oregon, LUTHER MEADOWS. 290 Salmon street, Portland, Or. Taxes Paid in Oregon mean moneys turned into the coffers of the state.

DRY PROBLEM FACED LA CENTER MUST FIXD MEANS OF REPLACING LICENSE INCOME. If Three Saloon Yielding 93400 ' Are Shut Up Maximum Taxea That Can Be Levied Are $620. VANCOUVER, Wash.. Sept. 20. (Spe cial.) Reports from La Center, a small town in this county, indicate that the Town Council has a real problem to solve. At a recent election a '"dry" Coun cil was elected and later a petition was presented, signed by about 300 pe titioners, requesting that no more licnse3 be granted to saloons within the corporate limits of La Center. The Council is to act in favor of the peti tion; in fact, the license for one sa loon has expired and has not been re newed, and the licenses for the other two will expire in a short time. Each saloon has been paying- $800 a year license, and this netted $2400 an nually. For years, it ls understood, no tax levy has been made, and street 1m- provments and other necessary expenses have been met with the annual Income of $2400. The assessed valuation of property in La Center is $62,000. Ten mills ls the limit that can be levied for general expense, which would net $620. As the full amount, $2400, has been spent each year, and the income will be but $620, some method must be found whereby more Income will, be forthcoming. RAIN RUINS DALLAS FAIR Exhibits Declared Excellent, but At tendance Is Cut Down. DALLAS, Or.. Sept. 20. (Special.) The second day of the Polk County Fair was practically ruined by the heavy rain. Thursday night a heavy electric storm visited this section, fol lowed by one of the worst downpours of rain that has been witnessed here in years. The rain continued to fall all Friday and late into the night. Few were brave enough to attend the fair. The amusements did a poor business. Yesterday morning it cleared off somewhat and the sun shone most of the day. The exhibits and amusement features were the best seen here yet. OREGON LAW CRITICISED WEIGHT AND MEASURE REQUIRE MENTS CONDEMNED. P. S. HolbrooU. of United States Bu reau of Standards, Sngsssta Amend- ments to ExiatinE efc. SALEM, Or., Sept. 20. (Special.) Declaring that If action were not taken soon Oregon would become the dump ing ground of incorrect weights and measures and non-standard packages of goods discarded by other states, F. S. Holbrook. of the United States Bu reau of Standards of the Department of Commerce, has conferred with State Deputy Sealer of Weights and Meas ures Buchtel with regard, to preparing amendments to the Oregon law for sub mission to the next Legislature. Mr. Holbrook said the Oregon law was far from being a model and that in many respects it was not workable. In place of County Sealers of Weights and Measures appointed - by the County Courts, he urges the appointment by the State Department of district seal ers who will be directly responsible to the State Department. "The idea is to provide a plan for giving the deputies continuous work." continued Mr. Holbrook. "Under the present arrangement many of the County Sealers are not continuously employed in this work and as a result little is accomplished. In many parts of the state several counties should be Included in one district. This scheme would in no way disrupt or Interfere with the work in large cities like Fort land, which maintain their own de partments." , ALBANY CALLS OHIO MAN Carl A. Hyer, of Wesleyan Univer sity, Athlete, Gets Biology Chair. ALBANY, Or., Sept. 20. (Special.) Carl A.

FARMER ADVOCATES, AUTO Transportation for Produce Cheaper and Quicker, Says E. C. Gentry. VANCOUVER, Wash., Sept, 20. (Spe cial.) That an automobile ia cheaper than a team of horses for certain classes of work, marketing, for in stance, has been proved to the satisfac tion of E. C. Gentry, a farmer near this city. Mr. Gentry bought a 1912 machine and replaced the back seat with a car rying box in which he can haul half a ton of produce with ease. The total cost of the machine was about $500, which is cheaper than a team of horsea and light spring wagon. The cost of operation is less than that of feed for a team. Mr. Gentry predicts that this method of transportation will prove popular with the farmers.
