Many yeara have tha cannerlea of Alaska shipped . large amounta of their, canned " flan to Portland and labeled them ft the t Royal Columbia river Bhlnook aalmon. In many , Instances the relabeling haa been ao coarse that' tha packers forgot to take off the first label explaining that It waa nothing but Alaska salmon. The new law will put a atop to this practice and likewise enable the con-- aumer to aecure Columbia river aalmon when It la called for. ' !-v Substitution Prqnnt. Sometimes eannera have put up fall aalmon when the label calls for spring fish and sometimes they have substi tuted the steelhead for the Royal Chi nook Just because tha latter waa scarce '. and cost more money. Spring aalmon la the beat aalmon and for that reason commands a better price than others. The new national pur food law as It regards labeling la a follows: J, .

But don't Imagine for a moment that thla remarkable rrowth waa the reault of any a-reat effort on the part Of Portland a heavy financial and buat neaa interests. It came about largely, almply because Portland naturally waa obliged to grow. "But from now on is the opportunity to bring about one of the greatest advances that thta or any other city haa ever known: but It must be brought about by the people of Portland. -1 nave neara uitra-coneervauve Dull ness men here; depreciate and deplore what they mlssnamed the real estate boom, that Portland la now aupposed to be having. What a mistake! There Is no boom here. Values have been made by th natural opening up of what for year waa a dormant field. "If Seattle, with ita unity of action and splendid publlo spirit, had halt the natural resources for the making of a great city that Portland has. the city on Elliot bay would have 600.000 people. And the same thing may be aald of Los Angele. "Here where Portland stands Is the beat sndowed spot weet of the Rocky mountains on which to build a great city. There la no city in the United Statea that haa a larger or richer agri cultural empire, alt ita own. than haa Portland. "But If we would reap the richer benefit of our natural advantages, we must all pull together, and not pull separately.

PROBABLE IDENTITY OF DEMENTED MAN Portland bankers Who have estimated th season' agricultural probabilities say th wheat crop wlU b th greatest and th prlo th highest known In many years In the Paclflo northweet. They assart th belief that th Inland empire and Willamette valley will pro duce enough wheat alone to put $40,000,- 000 Into the pooketa of tha farmer,. That amount la a large sum of money to distribute In a few months In any limited section. It la certain to form a basis for great prosperity for Oregon, Washington and Idaho farmers, who, after they hav added their year" re ceipts from fruit, livestock, wool and dairying, will find themselves in as good condition financially as are any set of farmer In the world. No very great amount of money la re quired to move the wheat crop In thla region, In view of the course it takes to the markets of tha world. A million dollars will do tha bualneaa for $40,- 000.000 worth of wheat, and the banks reoulre no apeolal preparation to take rare of the wheat movement her. Th bulk of th wheat that goes foreign will be aent through Portland. Borne of It la? on for opening of the National Bank of Com mere, a new institution organised by men wno are Deaina tn Oregon.
