tlon. of Z. Sweet, Head of
the Z. Sweet Company.
Work of remodeling the Portland
Emporium, at 126 Sixth street. In
cluding: rearangement and redecora
tion of the three floors given over
to retail selling and the construction
of a new front and. entrance to the
store, has been completed after sev
eral weeks. The work, which was done
cnder the personal direction of Z.
Swett. head of the Z. Swett company,
owners of the Emporium, cost In ex
cess of $20,000.
Tha Emporium was established
about ten years ago a"nd has exper
ienced a steady growth since, that
time. Early last spring: Mr. Swett,
having decided upon further enlarge
ments to the store, made a trip east
during which he visited the largest
modern specialty shops throughout
the eastern and California cities,
studying general plans of stores, dec
orating, lighting, etc. and the re
sult of his studies were embodied
in the plans for the Emporium.
In July the lease on the Brown
building, which the store occupies,
was renewed for ten years and re
nonstruction of the store was begun.
The most striking change has been
the reconstruction of the entrance,
making an arched effect with two
large display booths at each side and
considerable more show space than
before.
The first floor is much more com
modious as a result of the new ar
rangement and also of the transfer
of all millinery to the third floor.
The first floor is given over to ladies'
small wear entirely, while the second
is given over to suits and cloaks.
On the third floor is the milli
nery store, and this floor has been
remodeled into a millinery estab
lishment of -striking nature. Mirrors
are arranged along the walls and
small rooms and seats are provided
at convenient places for the trying
on of hats.
OREGON LANDS VARIED
3,000,000 ACRES OF "WET LANDS
AVAILABLE.
State Also Has 3,000,000 Acres of
Irrigable Lands, but Prob
lem Is Difficult.
OREGON AGRICULTURAL COL
LEGE, Corvallis, Sept. 11. (Special.)
Oregon offers a greater variety of
land reclamation problems than any
other state in the union, according to
college professors. There are "seeped
lands" in the hills, tide lands on the
coast, overflow lands along the Col
umbia and Willamette rivers, marsh
lands in southern and east central
Oregon.
In all. there are about 3.000,000
acres of wet lands, all now feasible to
drain. In addition to this there are
ir Oregon 3,000,000 to 4,000,000 acres
of irrigable lands, undeveloped, for
which there is water. The proper de
velopment of these lands, of course,
requires the best of engineering skill.
The department of irrigation en
gineering has co-operated with the
department of soils in assisting in
the technical and advisory work of
organizing projects in Oregon ag
gregating 24,600 acres. The depart
ment also conducted extension schools
to teach the farmers the proper meth
od of measuring water, the best meth
ods of delivering water, the mainte.
nance of irrigation structures and the
proper crops to grow in Irrigated
lands.
The department is training men for
the great work of developing the wat
er power and irrigation projects of
Oregon, which are potentially so vast
that the services of thousands of
engineers will be necessary to carry
them to completion. When they are
in operation, however, the incom
from the added resources would pay
the cost of public education a nun
dred fold each year.

Concession Booths on White
Way Going Rapidly.
SALEM, Or., Sept. 11. (Special.)
When visitors to this year's state fair
enter the gat.es on the morning of
September 27 they will find the most
extensive exhiDit of livestock ever
assembled in Oregon, according to
A. H. Lea, secretary of the state fair
board. Mr. Lea said this assertion
was based on reservations already
made and telegrams4 received from
owners of herds in almost every sec
tion of the United States.
A large herd of Herefords will
come to the fair grounds rrom the
Glendale stock farm at Aspen, Colo-
while a herd of Polled Angus cattle
will be exhibited by Congdon & Bat
tles of lakima. Wash. Congdon &
Battles are among the most promi
nent breeders of cattle in the west
and. they have promised to send the
cream of their herd to the local fair.
J. R. Macben of Canary, Or., also has
written that he will exhibit a herd
of Ayreshires. while James McNerney
of Carlton called at the fair grounds
in person and reserved space for his
herd of Herefords. L. A. Bowes will
specialize in Shorthorns.
Advance reservations indicate that
the showing of swine will be notable
in that the exhibits will be larger and
of better quality than ever before.
In this division will be found three
carloads of Tamaworths from Beth-
ny. 111., and Eastown, S. C. The
owners of these exhibits are rated
among the most prominent livestock
breeders in the United States, and
their entries will no doubt be among
feature attractions at the fair.
The rabbit and poultry exhibits
have been combined, and the former
will be a feature at the fair for the
first time. The entries In this depart
ment promise to exceed all expecta
tions, and hardly a day passes but
that Mr. Lea receives letters asking
for information with regard to pre
miums and when the animals must be
delivered to the grounds.
Milk goats will also play an impor
tant part in this year's fair, and al
ready several herds of these animals
have been entered- These goats will
be in charge of a Portland man. who
will explain the food value of their
milk, especially in the feeding of in
fants. A. C. Ruby of Portland and
D. F. Burge of Albany probably will
be the largest exhibitors of draft
horses. Mr. Ruby has written the
fair officials that he will bring two
carloads of horses to the fair, which,
augmented by Mr. Burge's exhibit
and other extensive entries from va
rious sections of the state, will make
this division worthy of special in
spection by the state fair visitors.
Judges for the various livestock
departments will include: H. W. Gris
wold. West Salem, Wis., Guernseys;
J. M. Fuller, professor of animal hus
bandry of the Wisconsin Agricultural
college, horses: George Wells. Osh
kosh. Wis., poultry: C. W. McCamp
bell, Manhattan, Kan., beef cattle;
Hugh Walters, Townsend, Mont
swine; Robert F. Miller. Davis. Cal.,
sheep and goats; John L. Smith, Spo
kane, dairy cattle; J. D. Inlow, Port
land, rabbits. The premiums-for this
year's fair have been Increased ma
terially over previous years, which,
no doubt, has had considerable to do
Jn making it worth while for some of
the largest producers 'of the middle
west and south to make exhibits.
Space for concessions on the "White
Way" is going rapidly, according to
Mr. Lea. and it will be with consid
erable difficulty that all the shows
will be accommodated. Special care
NEW HOME FOR EDISON
THREE-STORY STRUCTURE BUILT BY A. H. KERR AT THIRTEENTH AND EVERETT STREETS. :
The new three-story building at the southwest corner of Thirteenth and Everett streets, built to
be occupied by the Edison Phonograph company, has been completed and the company, together with
Wadhams & Kerr Bros., which occupies a portion of the building also, has moved Into its new location.
The structure is of brick construction and cost in the neighborhood of $50,000. Alexander H. Kerr is
the owner. The plans were prepared by Strong & McNaughton, architects. The two lower floors, contain
ing 20,000 square feet, are occupied by. the Edison Phonograph : company and the third floor by Wadhams

ALBAXT LIVES IN OFFICES
House Shortage Drives' Many Into
Unusual Places.
ALBANY, Or.. Sept. 6. (Special.)
Unoccupied office rooms In several
local business buildings are now being
used as residence apartments. This
condition exists because the demand
for houses here exceeds the supply
Not only is very house in the city
occupied, but all living apartments
are in use as well. In fact any apart
ments to be vacated are engaged long
in advance. People are seeking places
not constructed or intended for living
apartments until they can obtain
better quarters.
The result is that one sees the cur
tains, of living apartments over the
windows of office rooms in various
business buildings here now.

PHONOGRAPH COMPANY COMPLETED AND OCCUPIED.
If Staple Proves Unqualified It Can
Be Mixed With Canadian
for Making .Paper.
GOLD HILL, Or.. Sept. 11. (Spe
cial.) The recent requests of the
manufacturers addressed to the state
bureau of mines for asbestos proper
ties have aroused holders of asbestos
deposits in the Gold Hill district to
activity in renewing abandoned de
posits in which, before the war, they
saw possibilities. The Gold Hill dis
trict contains important deposits.
Manufacturers, before the war and
for a number of years, have been
busily engaged in exploiting new de
posits. Samples of the deposits in
this district have been submitted and
stood the usual test as to fireproof
ness, ample in length of textile, but
the staple lacks elasticity and flexi
bility when it comes to spinning
qualities, which the Italian. Russian,
African and Canadian deposits pos
sess.
Asbestos has been found In all
niiarlfn nf thA clnhe. and now finds
its way in one form or another Into I
every workshop where steam or elec-
tricity Is employed. GeologRits clas
sify it among the hornblendes. In
tself asbestos is a physical paradox,
a mineralological vegetable, both fib
rous and crystalline, elastic, yet brit
tle, a floating stone, but as capable
of being carded, spun or woven as
flax, cotton or silk. '
It Is apparently the connecting link
between the vegetable and mineral
kingdoms, possessing some of the
Characters of both. In appearance it
is light, buoyant and feathery as this
tledown, yet in its crude state it is
dense and heavy as the solid rock in
which it is found.
The demands at present for this
metal are seriously considered from
a commercial point of view, and in
the event that tlje southern Oregon
asoestos aoes not meet tne quaim-
cation of a textile staple, it can be
mixed with the Canadian for making
paper and other purposes where an
inferior grade can be utilized.
GENERAL FELAND MOVED
Santo Domingo Commander Is
Called to Headquarters.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 11. Briga
dier General Logan Feland of the
Marine corus, one of the few general
officers of the A. E. F. who won the
distinguished service cross, has been
ordered to Washington, to take charge
of the planning section of the Marine
corps staff. He is now in command
of the brigade of sea-soldiers in
Santo Domingo.
He will be relieved at Santo Do
mingo by Brigadier General Charles
G. Long who has in turn recently
been relieved as chief of staff of the
corps by Major General Wendell C.
Neville, who commanded the marine
brigade overseas.
General Feland, in addition to
winning the coveted distinguished
service cross for personal bravery in
troop leading when the marines
launched their attack at Belleau
Woods on June 6, 1918, received the
distinguished service medal. The
French army decorated him five
times with the croix de guerre and
also made him an officer of the
legion of honor.
The famous Emperor Charles V,
who was accounted one of the ablest
rulers of his time, had such confl
dece in the ability of women to gov
ern that he appointed three succes.
sively as regents of the Netherlands.
Head of National Body Cites Fact
That Real Estate Bears Nearly
70 Per Cent of Tax Burden.
The fact that real estate bears ap
proximately 70 per cent of the entire
tax burden of the country was cited
by Fred E. Taylor of Portland, presi
dent of the National Association of
Real Estate boards. In the current
issue of the National Real Estate
Journal of Chicago, that the national
realty association has now grown "to
such stature" that it should speak au
thoritatively to legislative, bodies on
matters affecting real estate.
Mr. Taylor expressly warns against
any tendency toward the professional
lobby but points out that members of
congress, state legislators ' and city
councilmen will no doubt gladly wel
come the statistical data bearing on
rentals and property Income now be
ing prepared by the Bureau of Re-
search recently established by the Na
tional Association oi tteal estate
boards.
"Fair Borden Asked.
All that the realtors and property
owners ask is fair and equitable dis
tribution of the tax burden, the na
tional realty president says, but they
feel that they should have more voice
in the deliberations before legislative
bodies passing upon matters of taxa
tion
Mr. Taylor's views, published under
the heading "National Legislation,1
are as follows:
"It is a rather curious thing that
the great interest of real estate,
which carries approximately 70 per
cent of the entire tax burden of tire
country, has had no formal organiza
tion to appear -as its representative
before the various legislative bodies
that determine matters of taxation.
Legislators Are Influenced.
"The men eiigaged in nearly every
other line of man's endeavor, includ
ing many businesses that might be
termed subordinate or secondary,
have established well-equipped, high
ly organized legislative committees or
bureaus which have influenced legis-
lation in some instances very mater
tally to the advantage of the inter
ests so represented.
"he time has now come when the
National Association 4of Real Estate
boards has grown to such stature that
it can and will speak authoritatively
to the legislative bodies on legislation
affecting real estate. I am sure no
realtor would countenance a profes
sional lobby or presume to voice any
demands or threats. A questionable
course is not necessary and we as
members of an organization founded
absolutely on ethical grounds would
not resort to it even if it did seem
imperative under a severe emergency.
Data to Be Submitted.
"Through our committee on national
legislation and the new bureau on re
search and publicity, created at the
Kansas City convention we propose
to submit data demonstrating the
fairness or unfairness, as the case
might be, of measures under consid
eration. The average American legis
lator is an intelligent citizen who de
sires to do the right thing by his con
stituency and render conscientious
service according to the best of his
ability and knowledge.
However, so many matter are
brought to his hurried attention that
he does not always have the time or
opportunity to familiarize himself
thoroughly with all of the important
legislation which he is obliged to vote
upon. The many Imperfect and ill-
advised laws which are each year
written upon the statute books in
various state furnish conclusive proof
of this unfortunate fact.
Consultation Is Welcomed.
"Therefore, the senators and repre
sentatles . at Washington are more
than glad to consult with the mem
bers of our committee on national
legislation, each member of which is
recognized authority on the broad
subject of real estate, and the state
legislators and city councilmen of the
country at large will no doubt open
their arms and their minds to the
spokesmen of the research bureau
who will, from time to time, furnish
information and data covering pro
posed legislation affecting rentals
and taxes.
"It was extremely gratifying to ob
serve how enthusiastically the dele
gates to the Kansas City convention
received the recommendations of the
finance committee and responded with
sustaining memberships In the re
search and publicity division. Armed
with the liberal fund which already
has been accumulated we have a right
to expect that this division will ac
complish notable results in the cam
paign to obtain Just and equitable
laws governing property and income

It took Mr. Rothchild less than five years to transform what was virtually a

Prof. John H. Austin, over 40 years
a bacteriologist, hair and scalp spe
cialist, who now has offices at The
Owl Drug Co.. points out some of the
reasons for an increase in baldness
among men.
Prof Austin is probably right in
saying that about one man in every
hundred ever thinks about his hair
at all. except to comb it two or three
times a day. If it tails out he looks
anxiously at the falling hair and then
promptly forgets . it until the next
time he uses a comb.
A man will give the utmost atten
tion to his teeth, because he knows
that when trouble arises he will have
more trouble and probably lose his
teeth if he doesn't go to a dentist
promptly. But his Lair doesn't ache, i
Just gradually dies, and when it Is
nearly gone and the roots are dead,
he anxiously tries a dozen different
remedies at once and then resigns
himself to baldness.
Prof. Austin says the use of dan
druff cures, mange cures and hair
tonics is like taking medicine with
out knowing what you are trying to
cure. The particular trouble wltk
which your scalp is afflicted must I.,
known before it can be intelligent!)
treated.
