Extraordinary Savings on Seasonable Merchandise in All Departments
HUGE ASSET NEGLECTED
THE MORNING OREGOXTAN, TUESDAY, AUGUST 2, 1921 "
URGED
OREGON
7P ANNIVERSARY S AIES
-
Promotion, of Arid Acres Would
Add $500,000,000 Annually
to Wealth of People.
Oregon might benefit financially
(300,000,000 a. year by developing
modern land settlement plans and
reclaiming? its vast acres that are
now a liability instead of an asset,
said B. F. Faast, president of the
Wisconsin Colonization company of
Eau Claire, in an address before the
members' forum of the Chamber of
Commerce yesterday noon. His re
marks were reinforced by H. F.
Kussell, dean of agriculture of the
University of Wisconsin, and E. F.
Benson, manager of the department
of immigration and Industry of the
Northern Pacific railway.
Messrs. Russell and Faast gave up
half of their summer vacation to
coma west and tell their story of the
importance of reclaiming lands of
various kinds. Mr. Faast grave facts
of demonstrated value as the prac
tical head of a practical private busi
ness venture, which in 15 years has
put 1000 families on logged-off acres
in Wisconsin, and Dean Russell
showed what a state may do to assist
these and similar enterprises with
out itself going into the business on
Its own account. He believes private
conduct, supervised by the state,
preferable to state operation out
right. Northern Pacific Interested.
Mr. Benson said that the Northern
Pacific wants to get more settlers
on the land in Oregon and other
places throughout its system and
stands ready to back up any legiti
mate movement, handled by the state
or any responsible concern. He per
suaded his friends from Wisconsin to
come out here, he said, because he
knew they had practical, proved
knowledge of the reclamation sub
ject which. . if personally imparted,
would be of great value to Oregon
people.
"If Wisconsin or any state works
out son system that is of value, I
know Oregon well enough to know
that you want to hear about it and
that you will use it,"' said Mr. Benson.
The Northern Pacific wants you to
have every possible help. Including
first-hand information, and if there is
anything it can do to assist in de
velopment, its hand is extended to
you." .
James B. Kerr, a classmate of Dean
Russell, introduced three ' speakers.
Mr. Faast sketched briefly the prog
ress of logged-off land activity in his
home state and emphasized the point
that, to make successful, happy set
tlers, it is necessary that they be
not only provided with suitable land,
but that they shall be guaranteed the
financial assistance so essential to
their well being.
"Iteady-Made" Farm Sold.
To do this, his company sells
"ready-made" farms, consisting of
house, barn, tools, etc., on a 30-year
basis, no payments whatever for the
first three years, providing they re
main on the land and develop it to a
certain degree annually; in addition,
they get loans for incidentals from
$200 to $300 these years to encour
age them and make life more pleasant
while they are getting under way.
"As the farmers of America con
sume 70 per cent of the output of our
factories, said Mr. Faast, "it stands
to reason that they constitute the
most important business factor and
purchasing power. It follows that we
should give their business our best
thought. You cannot have happy
farmers unless you make conditions
favorable for happiness. I am not
going to tell you how to do this, for
I know that the same brains that de
veloped such beautiful cities, such
as Portland; that conceived and con
structed the Columbia river highway i
and brought about such wonders of
modern development here can easily,
if they set to it, work out country
plans equally well.
Tracts Carefully Platted.
"In Wisconsin we get the best plan
ners obtainable and had our tracts
laid out for the prospective settlers in
a. manner just as careful as any mod
ern city has ever laid out its civic
centers or the widening of its streets
or the architectural features of its
big buildings. We had all the good
roads necessary; all the little com
munity centers, all the villages
planned on a modern style. Farmers
must have these things if they are
to live like people should live and
they won't stay farmers unless they
do nave them.
"We have 60,000 acres laid out this
way, with already 1000 settlers there
on. That they are contented is shown
by results. We have had no more
than ordinary difficulties to over
come. We have six styles of homes,
economically constructed, and all
farm buildings, tools, etc., are there
for the farmer when he moves onto
his chosen place. Give the same
thought to your reclamation prob
lems that you have to your city prob
lems and you'll solve them."
Service Important Feature.
"Land with service" is the modern
method of handling reclamation prob
lems, according to Dean Russell. He
declared he would rather pay $25 for
service and $15 for land than the
reverse. He said there are many
ways in which the state may be of
invaluable help without itself going
into the land business. He does not
believe a state should go into the
business.
Personally," said Dean Russell, "I
favor private undertakings, but with
state supervision. For example, in
Wisconsin we have this system: The
state requires a license of every
realty operator. As long as he treats
the people right, the state co-operates
with him and them; when he
does not. his case goes before a com
mission for investigation. Last year.
many licenses were revoked and a
wholesome effect was had.
State Aid Always Valuable.
"The state also may be of help by
furnishing correct maps,, denoting the
nature of the soil, as to its varying
values and comparative growing
capabilities; by experiment stations,
such as Oregon has, and' by a sDirt
of real friendliness all along the
line.
Dean Russell related his exDerl
ence in salvaging a vast amount of
high explosives which the war de
partment had on hand at the time of
the armistice and which it was pro
posed to throw into the ocean. Thii
was taken and put through a process
vhich made its use safe for farmers
in clearing land at a greatly reduced
price.

Davis' appointment was agreed upon,
a second conference was held, which
was attended by John T. Adams,
chairman of the republican national

decided to appoint only Alaskans to
judicial positions in the territory.
Three of the four judicial appoint

but no on was named for the sec

Adams told Senator Stanfield that if
any outsider is appointed. to this va

On objection by Representative
Mann of Illinois a bill by Repre

for a study of the Cowlitz and Puy

PAVING WORK PROTESTED
Property Owners Ask Council to
Hear Complaints.
Allegations that unsatisfactory
work has been done in laying the
paving on East Eight street between
Dekum street and Ainsworth avenue
were presented in a petition of 34
property owners filed yesterday with
the city auditor. The work ques
tioned was put in by the United Con
tracting company.
The property holders assert that
the side strips of the street have
been left with large-sized rocks and
not smoothed down in condition for
use. The paving Itself is alleged to
be below specifications. The owners
ask for an opportunity to present
their grievances to the council with
full particulars ot the work. Pho
tographs of the side strips are at
tached to the petition to substantiate
the charges.
Portland Citizens Attend Closing
Session Held by Methodist
Episcopal Workers.
JEFFERSON, Or., Aug. 1. (Spe
cial.) Following the seventh annual
gathering of the" Kpworth League in
stitute in Jefferson, the mecca for
young church workers of the Metho
dist Episcopal church probably will
be moved to a more central location
so as to cater to both the Salem and
the Portland districts. This, it is said,
was the outcome of a meeting of the
board of control held on the grounds
yesterday.
It is rumored -that Canby may be
chosen as a meeting place. The
grounds here could not be purchased
or leased for a term of years so
permanent improvements could be
made. The board decided that this
was the most successful institute ever
held in the history of the institution.
The grounds, it is said, will be
turned into an out of town resort or
roadhouse by the owners.
The Epworth League board of con
trol will now seek to lease or pur
chase a suitable location to be the
permanent home of the institute, the
Jefferson institute having proved that
there is a growing demand for such a
meeting.
The institute closed today with a
large crowd in attendance, many com
ing . from Portland last night . and
others from the country surrounding
Jefferson. The three churches of the
city united with the campers.
needed for this purpose and a vote
of the electorate will be necessary to
provide funds.
The annual Industrial school fair
will be held in mid-September as
usual. L. B. Gibson, county school
superintendent, in charge of prepara
tion for the exhibits of students, says
this event bids fair to eclipse those
of former seasons.

THE DALLES, Or., Aug. 1. (Spe

Seven Mile hill or a detour around
by way of the oldi Gooseberry Springs
road. The Columbia river highway
between this city and Mosier today
was closed by the local state highway
office. Crews of men are leveling
the road and putting on additional
crushed rock in preparation for lay

After August 8 all travel will be

paving operations will start at the
gravel pits, four miles east of Mosier,
that day. It is planned to pavo west

The Gooseberry Springs detour is
