Business Talks lo Young Girls BY ALIOS BRADY How to Conduct Yourself In a Xew Position. Remember that a very great deal depends upon first impressions. Not only do they help you to make a good start in your new position, but, good or otherwise, first impressions are oftentimes unerasablo. They lend color to all that you do or are there- did not love them.

McMURRAY, General Passenger Agent, PORTLAND 1 During the season ending October 31, 1916, the Pacific Fruit Express company used for Icing regrigerator cars in the state of California 385, 279 tons of ice. Of this amount 193,358 were manufactured in Col ton, Los Angeles and RosevUle. To give an idea of the quantity the 385,279 tons of ice in Cali fornia if melted would equal 94, 466.960 gallons ot water. The same amount of tons,' namely 385,279,1 loaded in box cars averaging 20 tons j of Ice each would require 19.264 cars to transport them. Coupled j into one solid train they would cover a distance of 160.5 miles, extending from San Francisco to 2.5 miles be- i yond Towle Station on tho Ogden route of the Southern Pacific or 10 miles beyond Merced. t j Tonnage of 385,279 equals 2,568,- j 526 cakes of ice weighing 300 pounds ' per cake, each block 37 inches long. . These cakes, placed end to end in a j continuous line, would cover a dis-1 trance of 1500.3 miles, the distance between San Francisco and Green River, Wyo., over tho Southern Pa cific to Ogden and thence via the Union Pacific to Green River, Spray Calendar For (be Year 1917 (Preceding sprays were published In recent issues of the Tidings.)

During the latter part of the season when fruit is growing rap idly, applications should not be more than 3 or 4 weeks apart. Note In some sections of the northwest it has been found that late applications of double strength ar senate of lead resulted in an appreci able reduction of worms and "stings." This is offered as a suggestion for growers who have had difficulty in controlling the late brood of codling moth. Use fine mist spray. Disinfectant For blight wounds and instruments used in cutting out blight. We feel justified in recom mending to interested growers for trial, a substitute for bi-chlorlde of mercury (corrosive sublimate) as a disinfectant, a compound known .as lysol or solution cresol compound. Lysol can be purchased for $1 per FRUIT and FARffi More I logs for the Northwest There is an apparent shortage of pork production in the great North west. Oregon, Washington and Ida ho lead Colorado, Utah and Wyom ing in quality of production, but the total number of hogs yearly market ed from theso six states Is but one ninth the number that annually comes out of lowa,'s feed lots less than a million and a half as against Iowa's more than nine million. This great Northwestern country possessing ideal climatic conditions, abundance of variety in feed, and favorable sanitary conditions, cashes less than $15,000,000 worth of pork a year, while Iowa's hoga bring more than $84,000,000. No state In the Northwest Is sup plying Iter yearly consumption of pork. Oregon receives every month iOO.OoO pounds of dressfd pork and pork products, at a cost of $65,000. Her yearly market receipts of hogs produced within the state approxi mate '26,000 head. California is unable to keep her larder replenished throughout the year from her home production of pork; she produces only one hog a year per capita. Illinois farms grow, maintain and market sixty hogs to the square m!!e, while California peo ple consume thirty carloads of pork products that are shipped from the middle west. The field for pork production on the Pacific Coast is broad. Climatic conditions are Ideal; there is no ex ceptionally cold weather, and the rainy season is not prolonged. Ex tensive sheds and barns aro not re quired. Losses are reduced to a minimum. Succulent feed is possible through out the entire year. Clovers, par ticularly in Western Oregon and Washington; grow thriftily and pro duce heavily, giving the hog an abundance of forage practically the year round. Alfalfa Is adapted es pecially to these climates. Oats, peas, vetch and beans also grow thriftily. These, combined with a great variety of grains, enable the hog grower to produce a profitable and high-class product. Wheat is fed at a profit and barley, oats and peas furnish splendid variety. Hogs grazing on alfalfa and clover with a full grain ration reach the market in finished condition at eight to ten months of age, weighing 225 I to 300 pounds. Alfalfa fields ot thick growth yield 600 to 750 pounds of pork to the ace, carrying twenty; head of pigs or twelve to fifteen ma nure hogs. L. L. S., in the Country; Gentleman. I Savage Factory i To Double Output More than three times the number) af Savage tires and Savage tubes than, were possible last year are built every day now, in the San Diego plant of the Savage Tire Company. Notwith standing this big Increase in the out put, the factory has found it difficult to keep up with the demand this year. This spring, orders have been pouring in from the big territory opened up la.st year in the middle I west as well as from the coast, and in order that all motorists may be supplied, the Savage people have de cided to put on a second shift of , workmen and run their big factory night and day. A second shift of workmen will practically double the output of bofi tires and tubes, and will assure Sav age products for all who want them. Considerable new equipment Is novr on Its way from the east and thJ Savage plant will easily be able to in crease Its output four times, when these aro Installed. Savage officials attribute the big increase in business to high quality. Mr. C. E. Gates. Medford, Ore., local distributor, states that motorists in this vicinity are rapidly equipping with Savage tires and that the satisfaction that Savage products are giving is even greater than he anticipated. The policy of the Savage Tire Com pany has always been, customers first. It has been their aim at all times to give their customers the greatest possible value and the most' miles for their money. According to Mr. Gates, their slogan, "Heap Big Mileage," is well borne out by the mileage that Savage tires are giving here. pint and the solution cresol com pound for 50 cents per pint, and will be just as good as lysol if it contains 50 per cent cresol.
