10 TIIE 3IORXI"G OREGOXIAX, ' MONDAY, MAY 2. 1921 El i HELD HOPE OF CITY To-o Much Money in Foreign Bonds, Says H. H. Ward. PORTLAND'S NEED CITED Sugar Refiner', Tannery, Smelter. Rubber and Silk Manufacto ries Declared Accessary. The importance of stopping the flow of Portland investments In out-of-town securities and diverting it to build up the industries of this city was emphasized by H. H. Ward of the Portland Vegetable Oil Mills com pany in an address at the luncheon of the Rotary club at the Benson hotel last week. Mr. Ward declared that In the last three years 200,000. 000 had (tone out of this city for ' forpinff bonds and securities. "If one-fourth of that amount had ; been invested in well-thought-out. economically planned. honestly created and well-'managed local man ufacturing enterprises, Portland would assume her rightful place as the largest or eecond largest manu- facturing city on the Pacific coast," he declared. Mr. Ward said that at the present time Portland needs, and needs badly, a sugar refinery, a tannery, a smelter for copper and lead ores, a silk manu factory and a rubber factory. "In fact, Portland's needs for local manufacturing plants to utilize the raw materials of the orient are so great that Portland people should be encouraged to invest tneir money in local enterprises and thus help in buildinc ud the city," he said. As a means of encouraging local people to put their money in home enterprises. Mr. Ward urged a ruling bv the state corporation department requiring that enterprises seeking to place stock in this state snouta ne re ouired to print on the back of all stock subscription blanks definite in formation for the benefit of the pur chaser of stock. This information, he said, should include the follow ing: Amount of capital stock au . thorized. including amount of pre ferred and common stock; amount of anv kind of offering to be sold; price each share of said offering; per centage of commission and expenses allowed for promotion and stock meilincr: a definite statement of amount of capital stock issued which is sold for cash and amount ot cap ltal stock issue which is pure water or promotion or in. payment for pat- tuts or good will or for other pur poses, real or imaginary.

This, he said, would give the local buying public a chance to know the real value of the stock of any going con eern and would enable him to judge rightly in his investments. UMBRELLA FACTORY OPEN POHTLANI BECOMES CENTER OF 'EW INDl'STRY. Concern Has Attractive Storeroom, With shops in Rear; Capacity 1000 Tarasols Weekly. Portland became a center of the umbrella industry last week when the newly organized National I'm , brella manufacturing company es tablished its plant at 430 Alder street.

The large sales, of typewriters re p rted by typewriter concerns is taken as a sign or improved business conditions by "Financial America," in an article appearing in the last num ber of that publication. "As a thirsty land watches for rain, all the world looks for signs of re viving business," declares the article. "Such signs are not wanting. Among them may be mentioned typewriters. The Underwood company states that it sold more of its products in th United States in January. February and March than in the same months of gaining $1,300,000. For seven months the increase was J3. 400,000 or 33 per cent. "In a period of depression this in crease of American typewriter sales both at home and abroad is encouraging." OL'GLAS MacljEAX goes through "The Home Stretch" at the Ma jestic leaving a trail of laughs and thrills with his clever work in a fast-moving drama of race horses and romance. The picture is the best effort of this smiling star since his success in "Twenty-three and Half Hours' Leave." Much of the action in the story takes place at the race track, and proof of the quality of these scenes is shown by bursts of applause which greet the screen appearance of the racing thoroughbreds. MacLean has the role of Johnny Hardwick, who has spent' his life on race tracks and is wise in the lore of horseflesh. On the death of his father he falls heir to Honeyblossoni, a racer of true blue grass blood. In the early part of the play Johnny enters Honeyblossoni in a race with the odds 40 to 1, which means that if the horse wins, Johnny will clean up about J10.000. Honey- blossom is breezing down the home stretch three lengths ahead of the field and a irure winner when a little child toddles out on the track. Johnny rushes out, grabs the child and falls flat on the ground. Amoment later, Honeyblossom trips over his pros trate body and is stretched out on the ground when the other racers flash by. This scene is the big thrill of the picture, and the horse's fall is re markably well done. Johnny later becomes the clerk of a small-town hotel and meets a charming country maid, daughter of the village grocer. A romance de velops and the course of love is a parallel to Honeyblossom's race. It starts well, almost ends in a disas trous fall, but finally comes out all right for the right persons. Mac Lean furnishes another big thrill when he jumps off an ocean liner just leaving port. The supporting cast is well selected throughout. Screen Gossip. The Assistant Directors' association of California, located at 5444 Holly wood boulevard, Hollywood, was or ganized in 1 91S, and chartered under the state laws in 1913. The organiza tion is purely a social one, having for its prime object the efficiency of its members in the cinema industry. Before a man may become a mem ber he must serve three years in the picture business, one year of which as a first assistant director, bear a good reputation and come highly rec ommended by his employers. Of the membership of 75, 2D have been promoted to the position of di rector, three -have become studio man agers, two production managers and three or four are scenario writers. The secretary of tho Motion Picture Directors' association states that more than 30 per cent of the directors were assistant directors, the balance of their members having come from the theatrical profession. It is ap parent that as the stage is not now furnishing directors, the future mo tion picture director wili have been an assistant director. In connection with the Chicago Journal, the motion picture operators of that city .are staging a content that will result in the most graceful and beautiful girl in that city win ning a free trip to Los Angeles and four weeks' salary at the Christie studios, during which time she will appear in pictures and a permanent chance to appear in the comedies if she proves a screen success.

(Special.) An opportunity to share in the dis tribution of several thousand sets of artillery harness now being offered through the United States Sales com pany, Sallna, .Kan., is open to us farmers. The state farm bureau and tlje extension service of the state ag ricultural college are co-operating in thrlr distribution in this State. A sample Bet was left with the extension service for inspection, and Director Maris thinks a distinct serv ice will be rendered the farmers need- ins- harness now by assistance m makiner them available. The harness was bought by the government at J136 a set. and is said by Mr. Maris to be comparable in weight and quality with harness sell ing in the local marKet now at n. The price charged for artillery har ness is J39.75. f. o. b.. Ransom, W. va. Express charges on one set, which will weigh 30 pounds packed for shipping, is J13.07 to Corvallis pre sumably i close to average rate to shipping points in the state. This makes the cost of the harness laid down $52.82. The cost by freight at Corvallis would be $45.24. but three weeks is minimum of freight de livery. Sets were ordered by three mem bers of the Benton county farm bu reau executive committee after exam ination. Orders will be taken by George W. Kablc, county agent of Benton, for farmers in this county. Other county agents who will receive and forward orders for harness are J. E. Cooter, Toledo; H. E. Haslett, Roseburg; C. L. Jamison, Enterprise; E. W. McMindes. Astoria; W. L Teutsch, Lakeview; K. H. Thomas, Klamath Falls: C. C. Cate. Mcdford; Fred Fennion, Pendleton; E. R. Jack man, The Dalles; D. L Jamison, Red mond; W. D. Pine, Tillamook; W. B. Tucker, Prineville: Ira P. Whitney, Eugene; O. T. McWhorter, Washing ton; C. C. Farr, Coos; C. C. Calkins, Moro. Orders for sample sets have been telegraphed for each of these agents, who will act without commission, merely to give farmers an oppor tunity to inspect the harness and, for ward their checks with orders if made. Not all the county agents have reported In the matter and others may act as distributors if they so desire. is only partly successful, so the use of what is known as the "trap crop" shoulid be used. .This system, de veloped at the Oregon experiment sta tion, consists of planting either beans or squash through or about the crops to be protected. When the beetles appear the crop should be dusted lightly with powde-ed arsenate of lead, one part, and sifted wood ashes or air-slacked lime, nine parts. The trap crops should be left untreated so the beetles will collect there to be killed 'by mechanical means. VIRGIN SOILS HEED CARE POTATOES DO NOT ALWAYS THRIVE, SAYS EXPERT. SAWMILL T0BE REBUILT Alolia Lumber Company Negotiat ing for Site at Aberdeen. ABERDEEN. Wash., May 1. (Spe cial.) J. B. Wooster, resident man ager of the Aloha mill, which was recently destroyed by fire, stated today that decision had practically been reached to rebuild the mill on tidewater, and that negotiations were on for sites both with the Aberdeen and Hoquiam commercial bodies. R. D. Emerson, the chief stockholder, is now one of the party which left for the orient aboard the Wenatchee. so decision ia not expected at once. He Is a Hoquiam man and will favor Hoquiam. no doubt, other things be ing equal. The company employed 225 men one shift, and hopes to operate two shifts after rebuilding. The plant has been handicapped by lack of water shipping facilities. Fertilizing Regarded as Necessary in Order to Insure the Best Yields Every Year. HOOD RIVER, Or., May 1. (Spe c'al.) Gordon G. Brown, horticul turist of the Hood River experiment station, who has been experimenting with potato fertilizers for several years, said many growers were in clined to place an unduly high pre mium upon virgin soils for potatoes. "The assumption is that gradually soils become depleted of plant food and crops will run small." he said. "Where fertilization is not practical this undoubtedly is true. On the other rand, with good management and proper fertilization, yields may be in creased gradually over that of virgin soil. "Last year the experiment station ccrducted a series of tests to deter mine the best local potato fertilizer. One of our plots was red shot so;l near Parkdale. Clover was turned under previous to planting. The soil was handled in a thorough and sys tematic manner. Nitrogen was fur nished by nitrate of soda, phosphoric acid by superphosphate and potash by sulphate of potash. Nitrate was used at the rate of 300 pounds an acre. When used alone this did not increase yields. In fact this plot showed less marketable potatoes than unferti lized area." necessary BIG APPLE YIELD EXPECTED Yakima Valley Crop Promises to Be Record-Breaker. PROSSER, Wash., May 1. (Spe cial.) Yakima valley will have a big ger crop of apples this year than in 1919, when all previous records were broken, unless further damage oc curs, according to A. M. Nyberg, local representative of Albert Mc.Mahon, i New York fruit buyer, with whom he has just completed an inspection of orchards between Sunnyside and Ben ton .City. "Last week's frosts did more or less damage." said Mr. Nyberg. J'but we probably overestimated the damage. Winesaps fared worst, but outside oi the Whitstram district, five miles northeast of Prosser, the effect of the frost was merely to thin the fruit (somewhat. It will still be to thin the trees heavily. Present indications are that the Prosser district will ehip more fruit this year than in 1919, and that will be a lot. Most of the blossoms that were browned by frost were not killed, and if 90 per cent had been killed there would yet be a big crop. I do not anticipate any further frost d image. and I look for an active de nand and fair prices when the buy ing starts next fall. DAIRY INDUSTRY ENCOURAGED Railroad Officials to Urge Increase and Improvements of Herds MOSCOW, Idaho, May 1.

OREGON HEN'S FAME GROWS Shipments of Eggs Several Foreign Arc Made Countries. to So great has become the fame of the Oregon hen, particularly the strain developed at the Oregon Agri cultural college, that demands from a large number of foreign countries for eggs are constantly coming in. Eggs are now being shipped to Denmark, England, Canada, Argen tina and Switzerland by the depart ment of poultry husbandry at the agricultural college. The last order from a foreign country came from Switzerland for white Leghorn hatch ing eggs. The poultryman who sent the order said he had read in the Swiss papers about the good stock from the Oregon Agricultural college. A shipment of eggs was -made to Denmark a few days ago and orders have come from various other coun tries. The poultry department, how ever, does not encourage shipment of eggs at such a distance, as there is probability that they will not hatch well after being shipped across the continent and overseas.
