NOW, PLANT MORE BEANS AND POTATOES.
You have about, two weeks left . in whieli to plant beans.
Burpee's StringTlfs Greenpod beans are the kind.
And potatoes plant more potatoes. , - !
This is the call of the Salem King's Products Co.-, as you will
notice in their advertisement in The Statesman of this morning. j
Their plant will very soonstart up, on spinach and it will never
again shut down, if the producers will do their part. ' j
The fires will be; kept hot twenty-four hours of every day in the
yeary throrughout all the years of the future, if the farmers! of
Marion and Polk counties will supply the vegetables and fruits.!
And the capacity of the plant will be increased, and provision
will be made for taking care of the by-products, as fast as assur
ance can be had of increased supplies from the farms and gardens
and orchards. ' . jj
"It is ud to our farmers. , t ' (j
They can have a market for all they can raise, and, by the same
sign, the better the supply the better the market; for the lower the
cost of securing the supply, and the larger the volume of business,
the higher prices to the producers because the overhead charges
will remain about the same' for a small or large volume of business.
-So there is a mjutual advantage, and a community advantage,
in the completes! possible co-operation.
So, Mr. Farmer, do your bit.
And do it now, for your, own good and the good of all your
neighbors. - " - 2 . '
Right now, plant all the Ijeans and potatoes you can make room
-tor.' . . '
The Jersey jubilee bunch will invade Salem eighty automobiles
strong perhaps a hundred; next AVednesday evening. They have
something to jubilate about.. It is the fact that at Marion, Marion
county, Oregon, there' is the greatest Jersey cow in, the world. Her
name is Vive La France, and this queen, of all Jersey dom a few
weeks ago completed her year's performance, during which she pro
duced 1031.64 pounds of butterfat. That is the official footing;
but the. newly elected champion of all the earth really gave over
1040 pounds, and was chiseled out of the difference by some sort
of hoenspocus of the experts that a layman could never understand
or excuse. But the 1031.64 pounds tops the record by a city block
or some such distance, any 'way, And, by the same sign more
records will be smashed in Marion comity. In fact, Marion county
is the international capital" of Jerseydom, and she is going to stay
in that proud place, and then some. - .
Speaking of living wages or salaries for teachers, The Statesman
would like to say this: By all means, teachers ought to be paid liv
ing salaries. But rid city or community ought to lie burdened with
the kind of an outrage that was voted a few- days ago upon the
Portland school district, where a flat raise of $400 was given to
all teachers, .irrespective of their present salaries. Some of the
teachers there are: already receiving more than they would be
"worth in any. other employment; some are receiving as much as they
are worth, and-others nearly as much as they should have. There
should be reason in all thingsThe people who. pay the taxes must
have some consideration not only for their own goo,d, and because
they have their rights, but because it ,is best for the whole pcpple.
The more home owners, the more property owners, the more tax
payer, the better for all t .
