A. K. U. alumnus followed up the rock

- -And he told the alumnus all about Ab
dullah temple and its achievements and
about the fine nobles numbered in its
, membership roster.: And what he for
f, rot, K. Y. Blum, who is secretary of the
t Ieavenworth " Chamber of Commerce,
told. : - ; v .
They told about John Brewster, who
Cot left at The Dalles when he tepped
"off' the special train to look about, and
howj frantic Mrs. Brewster became : at
' the thought of him being. lost ail alone
In the wild . and woolly West, until
they were reunited when Brewster came
in on the next train.. They Introduced
Captain N. Whitney of the patrol. Jack
Lansing, Robert; Hertut, who is a newly
wed : and has his bride along, and
Charles M. Stiller, who Is Irwin's part
ner at Leavenworth.
- f As for accomplishments, Abdullah is
doing something entirely different. Sev-
enty acres of beautiful ground around
an old rock quarry which they con
verted, by graveling anC cementing. Into
an artificial lake, three acres in extent,
have made an .ideal park not only for
fehrlners and their families, but for the
poor children of Kansas City who are
given a week's outing at the expense of
tue Shriners. ,
The lake has facilities for bathing,
to&ting and sometime fishing while at
cue end is a beach all for the kiddies to
p ay upon, wired in so that they cannot
grt out into deep water. The bath house
hi just nearlng completion. The park
r-s a dining room 200x10 feet which win
feed more than 9000 persona ' . -
Summer cottages have been erected for
those, seeking: outings. From Kansas
City children will be brought la parties
o 100 each " week,: he used in these cot
tages, and given every opportunity to
play on the green grass and bathe in the
lake, in the hope that a littl-a more Joy
may be brought into their lives, if not
a little more tan in their cheeks and a
r.Kle more fleeh on their bodies. The
expense will all be borne by Abdullah
tempie. '

OREGON'S GRAIN
PRODUCTION
The quality and great yield per acre of Oregon's
grain crop are of utmost importance to the further,
development of this state. Oregon's grains have,
upon repeated . occasions, been awarded high recog
nition -at both National and International Expositions. -
Statistics, compiled by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture, prove conclusively that yields
of . grain per acre, in Oregon are far in excess of the
per acre production of similar crops In other great
agricultural states. The following, averages over 'a
ten-year period indicate this fact graphically: ;
Bushels Per Acre ' '
Wheat Oats Barley
Minnesota .;..V 13.0 31.7' -25.7
Indiana 14.2 29.0 25.4 v
' - Missouri ..... 13.4 23.4 ; 21.9
Kansas . . . . . . 14.0 ; 24.4 19.8 !
No. Dakota .... 12.1 29.7 123.0 I
So. Dakota .:... l.l 31.6 i 25
OREGON'..... 19.5 30.0 32.2
Natural causes, mostly, effect this super-production
of grain crops in Oregon. Probably the most impor
tant - are the Ideal climatic conditions which are
coming to be recognized as one of this state's great
est assets. Cool nights cause a very'heavy stool from
the parent plant, running as high as eighteen and
twenty shoots to the plant; while on the other hand,
the warm days and continued sunshine precipitate a
very heavy heading out. ; - ' .
The recent growth in wheat, our - most valuable
grain, is shown in the following comparative state
ment: - -
1914
Wheat.. 16,604,000 bu.
Oats.. . 12,740,000 bu.
Barley.. 3,660,000 bu.
Corn . . . ' - 660,000 bu. 1
1919
20,400,000 bu.
9,993,690 bu.
1,880,150 bu.
: 1,875,000 bu.
The decrease shown in the production of oats and
barley is accounted for by the fact that greater acre
sge was put into wheat to meet the enormous demand
for wheat-flour during the Great War.
The total valuation of Oregon's grain' crop last
year was S10S.510.000 an increase of $ 30.000.6oo
over the year preceding and an Increase of S60.0O0.-
vwu uvcr tue valuation xji ine grain crop live years ago.
The enormous- increase in the value
uregon grain production is another, ind
tion of the possibilities "For a Gre
Oregon."
