The visit to Astoria of Inspector Congw of the weather bureau service reminds us that this is one of the most Important branches of the government. Not many years ago the agricultural department was hooted at for under taking to provide forecasts of weather conditions, but now the daily prognos tications are looked forward to with interest and regarded with absolute confidence by a large portion of the people of the country. Mr. Conger calls timely attention to the fact that the Pacific northwest forecasters have the most difficult field of labor, being so located that advance reports can not be secured. They must originate prognostications for the entire coun try east of the coast, and if at times they fall to correctly predict weather conditions they should not, as Inspect or Conger says, be jumped upon. It is gratifying to note that extensive im provements are to be made lu this lo cality, and particularly so that i storm-warning station is to be main talned at Chinook during the fishing season. This station will serve to warn fishermen of the approach of storms and will. It is to be hoped, pre vent the drowning of many of the men who toil nightly upon the river for a livelihood. The weather bureau ser vice aims to help every class of citizens farmerB, fishermen and mariners alike and we should show more ap preciation of the department. Pri marily Intended for the benefit of the farmer. It is being gradually extended to cover every field that requires fore casts, and Its great usefulness Is growing annually. E-ery good Ameri can will do all that is possible to ad vance the interests of the weather bu reau and to Increase Its efficiency. at Ion of the salmon Industry depends entirely upon the success of artificial propagation, and it is deplorable in the extreme that the criticism of the conduct of the department should come from the community most Interested. The general public will be satisfied with the leport of the Push club committee that the warden's work is being pro perly attended to. The overcrowding of the schools of Astoria is to be regretted, but it Is not clear how relief can be afforded Im mediately. The school district In which the city is located has about all It can do to nay the expenses of the present system, and until the assessed val iation of the city is raised to some thl. s like a reasonable figure the lack of funds for school purposes will be felt. t'nderpaid teachers and over crowded schools are not desirable by any means, but for the time at least we must grin and bear It. Portland's streets are being torn up and replaced with new ones, and her old bridges will be put In good repair. There's nothing like a little timely agi tation to make the public-spirited citl aen an improvement enthusiast. Port land is one of the most beautifully situated cities in. the country, and with her new streets will "look bock!" to the 1305 fair visitors. The extensive building there denotes an era of sub stantial prosperity that augurs well for the entire state. . Despite the unworthy efforts to ridi cule the department, the fisheries branch of the state government is making excellent progress. The out put of hatchery fish in Oregon this year will be about 25,000,000, and from this time forward will Increase yearly. Those who have criticized Warden Van Dusen for his failure to establish per manent hatcheries have done so with out cause, for the warden has ever been actuated by a desire to determine the best locations before putting the state to an expense that would not re suit in permanent benefit. The perpetu The crown prince of Siam complains that he was treated like a Japanese at an eastern function given in his honor. The first thing the crown prince knows, some Jap will walk up and down his frame. STARTLING, BUT TRUE "If everyone knew what a grand medicine Dr. King's New Life Pills Is," writes 1). H.
