"Who has not traversed the alienee of tho winding forest road and
felt the awesomeness of its enchanting solitude has missed one of the de
lights of Western life. Great expanses of pine, fir, spruce and hemlock
extend on either side the way, into whose dense growth the eye pene
trates but a few yards. The whirr of tho partridge and the swift flight
of the deer rouse one from his reverie; the Boughing of the wind in the
tree-tops sounds its accompaniment to the harmony of his silent thought.
A sudden turn in the Toad brings up new wonders of the virgin solitude,
while here and there a lonely caliin announces tho settler, the pathfinder
in the wilderness. Built of sturdy logs, nature's own untainted build
ing material, rising but a single story and boasting but a single room, the
cabin of the Bcttler stands as the reminder of the heroism of those of for
mer years who blazed the trail wo now are following. The hosiptality
of the cabin is typical of the forerunners of settlement. Here, perhaps,
will rise, in the distant future, a city. One never can tell. Perhaps the
stream just above will one day be harnessed and its power be used to sup
ply unborn generations with light, power and heat. Who can Bay that
the trail blazed by the men of long ago shall not lead future genera
tions to heights of achievement not dreamed of todayf For the forest
road has no end. It leadB on and on into the great boundless wealth of
timber, adding new wonders and beauties as it goes, so that the traveler
is loath to return.
Donatelli (Dinetella).
Chop very fine about 5 slices of
bacon, fry until the grease ia well
out, add a little olive oil, 1, large
onion and 5 sections' of garlic. Fry
until well done. Add 4 green peppers,
parsley and Italian dried mushrooms
chopped fine, 1 can of tomatoes of
ordinary size. Add Bait, black pepper
and paprika to suit taste. Cook mix
ture 114 hours. If it becomes too dry
add water or stock Boiip. Stir well to
keep from burning, about half an hour
before it has finished cooking place
2 pounds of donatelli in a pot of
salted boiling water and cook until
wqll done; when done add the mixture
in a frying pan and butter the Bize
of a walnut, or egg, or use cream.
Boil five minutes. Have already pre
pared some grated Holland or Italian
cheese. Place a layer of donatelli in a
pan similar to a milk pan, then
sprinkle with cheese and black pep
per. Add layers of donatelli and cheese
until pan is full, sprinkle over con
siderable cheese and bake 20 min
utes. Instead of using water to boil
donatelli, tlio stock from soup bone,
veal or chicken can bo used and is
better. If desired some meat can be
chopped fiuo and sprinkled over tho
eheese, except on the top layer. See
that there is plenty of juice on tho
donatelli. Gravies from meats can be
spread over tho top before baking.

The electrification of the Mt. Hood
I?ailway, one of the branch lines of the
Portland Railway, Light & Power Co.,
will be commenced at once aud it is
expected that by summer trains over
this line will be operated by electricity
instead of by steam, as at present. Tho
line is 'J3 miles in length, reaching from
Montnvilla to Bull Hun. Its electrifi
cation will cost about $175.01)0.
That the world at least the me
chanical world may one' day be con
trolled and operated through tho
agency of slips of perforated paper
is asserted in the editorial depart
ment entitled "Looking Forward" in
Cassier's Magazine. Control of ma
chinery by perforated paper was first
devised and introduced by Joseph
Marie Jacquard about a century ago,
in the loom that bears his name. In
the Jacquard loom erforated cards
control the movements so that pre
determined patterns are woven, in
dependently of the skill of the imme
diate operator. More recently, the
principle has been widely used in me
chanical musical-instrument players,
to which it was first applied about
forty years ago. It has been em
ployed also in the monotype machine,
in telegraph systems and in less fa
miliar connections, and we are told
that the possibilities of the device,
are far-reaching, especially since the
introduction of electricity has made
it possible to extend this kind of con
trol over distant apparatus. Tho
writer of the article in Cassier's bids
us look forward to the working of
all sorts of machine tools and even to
tho control and operation of railway
trains by a similar system. We read:
"The entire modern tendency in
mechanical operations appears, not
only in the substitution of machinery
for macual operations wherever pos
sible, but also in the planning of the
manipulation by others than those by
whom the work is done. Tire use of
planning departments, functional fore
men, instruction cards, and Bimilar
preliminaries to the actual perform
ance of the work, is being generally
discussed and" occasionally applied;
but with the exception of certain
forms of tabulating machines and
typesetters, and of such devices as
moving electrical signs, there seems
to be little employment made of the
most complete method of recording
and controlling movements that of
a piece of perforated paper.
"It seems entirely within reason
to state that no machining operation
is so complicated or involves so many
movements, so variously timed, as ap
pears, in the performance of even a
simple musical composition by a me
chanical piano-player; and when ' wo
consider the accuracy and effective
ness with which the most elaborate
compositions are rendered by such
machines the applicability of the
method to repetition processes in man
ufacturing seems worthy of consid
eration. , . .
"The number of operations which
may be controlled for any one ma
chine is by no means limited, any
more than the number of different

perforated roll. . . . The unlim
ited possibilities of the Jacquard prin
ciple over any othor thus constitutes
one of its greatest advantages. Any
change or modification in a series of
operations with the paper strip may
bo made simply by preparing a differ
ent set of perforations, just as one
written order of instructions super
sedes another; and thus it appears
that a form of control in which in
structions are positively combined
with their execution is available for
tht most intricate manufacturing operations."

One quart of buttermilk, boil about
two or three minutes, pour about IVi
pints of gill over 1 pint of sifted

The Stenographer's Inning.
On a trial in a certain court in this
state, says Law Notes, when the wit
ness on the stand was being subjected
to a merciless cross-examination, in
answering one question the witness
nodded. Whereupon tho court stenog
rapher, who was crowding the limit to
get it all and could not see the witness,
at once demanded:
"Answer that question," to which
the witness replied:
"I did answer it; I nodded my
head."
The stenographer, without a mo
ment's hesitation came right back
with, "Well, I heard it rattle, but
could not tell whether it was up and
down or from side to side."

Better Living-More Money
Solving the
Problem
of a For ALL on the Coast
For years, the cry has been, here on the coast, "BUY A FARM OB ACREAGE, AND YOU'LL MAKE A GOOD, EASY LIVING."
TOnwSirn1118 ls trU8- But 018 fact remain8' that 8et the mnst out ' a fam or Plece of ni, or out of a store, or whatever other profession or business we may be in, THESE MUST BE SOMEONE WHO WILL BUY
THOSE XHUfGS HA VE TO SELL.
The man who buys these things ls practically always the man who cannot produce them himself.
Here In the West, we need more men who are engaged in manufacturing enterprises men who work in mills and shops. These men and their families need all such things as are now produced on the coast and must buy them
of those nearby who produce them. n
It is plain, therefore, that to reap the greatest amount of good from the business in which we are engaged, THIS BIG WESTERN COUNTRY MUST BE MORE PERFECTLY BALANCED IN THE LINES OF BUSINESS IN
WHICH ITS INHABITANTS ARE ENGAGED.
Did you ever stop to think
That only a very small part of the manufactured goods that we buy every day
of our lives are made here on the coastf
The people who should be using those things which we produce are not living
near us. Just think what it would mean to the small farm owners alone if most
of the furniture, cereal foods, clothes, etc., which they buy wore made right
here at home by men who, in turn, were buying their vegetables, butter, eggs, etet
Think of the advantage to every man, woman and child who now lives here if,
with mills and factories located along our rivers and in our cities,, large and
small, thousands upon thousands of families were living hero employed in these
mills! The result would not only be a better mnrket for what is now produced,
but a better price on those manufactured articles which we are buying every day.
instead of paying for high transportation rates from the Kast, the raw mate
rials would be manufactured into the finished product and sold right here at home.
It is plain thnt what we need is more and larger manufacturing institutions.
The result in increased prices for what we produce and cheaper prices on the
manufactured goods we have to buy is sure to follow.
Prosperity Problem Solved
The question is, "How can we get to that state!"
The answer is simple
We, ourselves, arc responsible for the present condition for the shortugo in
mills and factories.
We are to blame because there are not right now thousands upon thousands of
families drawing good weekly pay envelopes, enabling them to put a large amount
of money into circulation among us. It is our own fault that we hnve to pay
excessive prices for many articles. It is our own fuult that we send our raw
products Kast to be made up, then bring thorn back hero and pay Eastern fac
tories and Eastern cities to make what we ought to have made right here.
The factories on the coast are anxious to go ahead to enlarge, to employ thou
sands more of men. But the territory in which they can sell their output is
limited to this coast alone, in almost every case. They cannot compote with
big Kastern manufacturers. They cannot sell in the Eastern markets. In many
cases, they have not the large amount of capital to advertise extonsivoly, even
in this, their home territory. They cannot go into the papers and magi i.tcs ami
convince you that the goods they make are as good if not better, a .'heap it
not cheaper for you to buy, as Eastern made goods.
We know it is the desire of almost every family on the coast to boost for coast made goods, because it helps every familv living here. It means better times, more money for everyone, better property values uud iiiaca-cd
prosperity if we can make our own manufactured articles from our own raw products and keep the money circulating among ourselves.
In the past, however it has been impossible for us to know the Pacific Coast made products. We could not ordinarily toll whether what we wnntod was made on tho coast. To lot everyone know plainly, in advance, whether a
product is made on the coast, manufacturers are now uniting and using the stamp which is shown here to designate a coast made article. Whatever you wish to purchase, ask for such an article bearing this stamp Almost
everything you can think of that you may need is made on the coast and made well. If you boost for it, the result will be that such factories making such products can grow, can give work to more peoplo; can help YOU to
Better Living Conditions for All
