Newspaper Page Text12 THE MORNING OREGONIAN, WEDNESDAY. FEBRUARY 14, 191" TOURIST TRADE NOW DEPENDS ON OREGON Washington and British Co lumbia Have Provided Their Share for Advertising. - $25,000 A YEAR IS ASKED California Plays Role of Siren and Tries to Tempt Northwest to Join Her In Effort to ' Keep Travel Cornered. fcuecess or failure for the Northwest Tourist Association rests with the members of the Oregon Legislature. The state of Washington yesterday sent word that the Legislature at lympia could be depended on to fi nance the Washington end of the scheme to get a large tourist traffic through the Northwest. ' . British Columbia will put up her por tion of the fundsl The appropriation bill, which sets side $25,000 per annum for two years to put on a Nation-wide advertising campaign to sell the scenio Northwest, has been in the hands of the ways and means committee of the House since the beginning' of the session at Salem. It is understood that a majority of the committee favors providing the money, and that the bill will be reported out favorably. Senate Believed KaTorable, In the Senate a majority of the ways end means committee is said to favor the bill. The only question is whether, under the limitations of the 6 per cent amend ment the money can be spared from the state institutions. It is understood that many members of the Legislature favor placing the bill on an equality with the state institu tions and this view is entertained in many sections of the state. It is held to be justified by the magnitude of the business that comes to a state where a large tourist travel has been obtained. President Lannin, of the California Tourist Association, yesterday notified Herbert Cuthbert, secretary for the Northwest Tourist Association, that California was willing to co-operate with the Northwest in inviting all-year tourist travel. The Northwest wants the Summer business of the tourist and California wants the Winter travel. California Under Suspicion. California's offer is said to be "based on the knowledge that the Northwest has the attractions to make its adver tising campaign a success, and the state to the south is suspected of wanting to make friends here so as to protect as much of the travel as possible. Back of the offer is the plan to spend $500,000 this year in advertising California for the tourist. Heretofore that state has raised approximately $150,000 'by direct taxation and has ex pended it for advertising. AVhen.the Northwest began to take an Interest in the Northwest Tourist Association, California Immediately increased her levies for advertising purposes. Secretary Cuthbert yesterday tele graphed Portland directors for the Tourist Association that it is "neces sary to organize for defense purposes." AH appropriations for the associa tion are contingent upon Oregon giving $25,000 per annum for two years.

Blade Right in Portland by the TRU-BLU BISCUIT COMPANY So Digestible That Even Babes THrive Upon It ASK your doctor what sort of cereal food is best of all -TTl. for easy and thorough digestion. Answer: A bal anced food that is non-constipating, granulated to allow free play of digestive juices, and complete with the natural salines and coarse brans retained. All cf these essentials are abundantly provided by Dr. Jackson's Roman Meal Even babies may ose It freely (from the eighth month) with greatest benefit to not only their health but their development and growth. When grains are "refined? the brans, salines and nutritive) dark parts are removed. Only the highly starchy white parts are re tained. These fine, starchy par ticles pack and clog the digestive tract, and ferment. The poisons thus produced enter the blood and you feel the nasty, debilita ting sensation due to indigestion and self-poisoning. Roman Meal ore- vents indigestion, and helps other foods to digest, too. It is porous because gran ulated. The digestive juices can reach every particle quickly, thus promoting digestion. The brans also help to bring out the digest-, ive juices. Result: ' Quick and thorough digestion, no ferment . etion and no self poisoning, hence the sense of wellness Roman 3?fP when you eat freely of Roman Meal. If Roman Meal does not posi tively relieve constipation we will refund your money. If you load up your system with foods that are impoverished and lack waste, the muscles of the digestive tract just step working, and then you have constipation. Let Roman Meal relieve it. Roman Meal is also a perfect!? balanced food. Your digestion is never upset by too much starches or too much protein. That is why it "agrees" with everybody properly balanced. Ask your doctor about it. Roman Meal has all the nutritive value of entire berries of wheat and rye, and the seed of flax rendered both tasteless and odor less by electricity. Roman Meal makes the most satisfying porridge (must never be stirred except while mixing meal and water). It is also used for making pancakes, gems, bread, etc At all grocers. it is Roman Meal CeTacoma (Washington) and Toronto (Canada) 10 The Easy Way to Health. Roman Meal Bread clotlls.
