SALEM THE DEHYDRATION CENTER OF THE COUNTRY
Sounds good, doesn't it?
How many of us realize that the opportunity to accomplish that
end is right up to us now f
How many of us know that we have every natural thing here to
do it with ?
Fresno, California, is known as the center of the raisin industry.
Los Angeles, orange and lemon industry.
Grand Rapids,-Mich., the furniture industry.
Chicago, the meat packing industry.
Minneapolis, the flour industry.
Richmond, Va., the tobacco industry.
Boston, wool; Astoria, Oregon, salmon; Butte, copper; Battle
Creek, prepared foods, and so on down the line of all our every day
necessities.
How did it happen to all those cities?
In -most cases, nature laid the foundations, and men took ad
vantage of what nature started and did the rest. ' - -MEN.
; SALEM, THE DEHYDRATED FRUIT AND VEGETABLE
CENTER OF THE WORLD.
Have we got the men?
We have the industry started.
The industry is well started to make Salem the dehydration cen
ter. Will the men come forward to cinch it for Salem?
We think they will, once they are awakened to the situation.
Salem has millions invested in stocks and bonds of industries
and municipalities all over the globe good investments, true;, but
why not in Salem's industries?
We will not only get our 5, 6, 7 or 8 per cent., but we will get
all the indirect profits that come from a growing community and
growing industries, to say nothing of the satisfaction of seeing our
money work and make things grow.
Salem has made a good start. i
Let's keep going.
It's our big chance.

HE .MUST I5E A GOOD EXPLAINER
The Democrats want a candidate
for president.
He must be a good explainer.
Yes, above all things, must be a
good explainer.
He must justify all the acts of the
administrations during the past
eight years.
Both McAdoo and Joseph r.s Dan
iels seem likely aspi ants for the
hopeless job of running; but can
they explain what became of the
$600,000,000 appropriation for air
planes all spent, though up until
the end of the war American airmen
flew in machines discarded by the
British and Ftejch?
Can they explain why, with the
federal control more complete than
ever before, food profiteers are en
joying a greater orgy of robbery than
ever?
Can they explain the brutality
scandals in the army?
These are merely a hint of the
hundreds of obvious and apparent
questions that the Bourbon candi
date will be expected to talk about.

UAH! I OR THE IXFAXTRV.
Uncle Sam is a wise old guy.
He figures that a lot of the doiiRh
boys wiho married French or Ger
man wives will be glad to stay In the
army and to arrangements are made
Tor the creation of certain special
regiments of them to be stationed
at designated gove-nment forts.
An elastic ;barracks system; will be
built which can be expanded to suit
increasing families.
'For this reason one would natur

try regiments, but not so.
The cavalry and artille:y are also
representei. These soldiers are
pleasantly referred to as the F. F. V..
but in thii case the initials stand for
Fathers of Famlies' Veterans. The
official estimates now are that about
20,000 American .soldiers married
roreign 'brides. This Is a rather
small proportion out or an army of
some two millions of susceptible
men exposed to a flock of ardent
and lovable young women, but nev
ertheless it is a sufficient number
to create a problem which Uncle Sam
must solve in a moral and upright
manner. The army has not been a
suitable career for a married private,
but it must be made so. Therefore,
regiments of men who married
French wives will be created and
they will be bar:acked so that all
can find -congenial companionship.
There will be no need for a man's
deserting either his wife or his regi
ment. This Is another Infant indus
try that will have the backing of the
general government.
It has been figured out that a
rain alarm can be made by- stretch

P -esident Wilson tells the railroad

THE HAXISOME WAITER.
Some of the waiters in eastern
cities are leading a movement for
the abolition of tips. No one ever
expected a thing of this kind from
the handsome waiter and, like every
other odd clrcustance, it will be
charged or credited to prohibition.
Unless a patron is fairly primed
with cocktails he is not disposed to
be lavish vith the person who serves
his table. Nearly all the rich tips
were 47 per cent alcohol. There Is
little jollying of the waiter under
the numbing influence of this half
of 1 per cent stuff. In a bone-dry
world the waiter wants his profes
sion elevated to a salary and com
mission basis, with only the propri
etor to deal with.
It was easy to show a bland sub

California Hangars May

gon during the summer, may be
asked by the state board of forestry
'o bring to the Salem and Roseburg
bases canvas hangars that were nsed
on the California flying field. The
state has been asked by Major Ar
nold, commander of the air service
for the western division to provide
hangars, and he advised against tent
hangar?, but it is explained by State
Forester F. A. Elliott that by the
time permanent hangars could be
provided the fire season would be
nearly over.
The forestry board met at Mr. El
liott's office ye-tterday and the ques
tion of adequate protection for the
airships was, the main question np
for consideration. " State Forester El
liott was authorized to go ahead with
whatever arrangements he could
make and stated after the meeting
that an erfort probably will be made
to secure the army hangars on lb
California fields. The fact that per
manent landing fields have not yet
been established Is another condition
that stands in the way of construct
ing permanent hangars at present.
