It a man can get married in a paper suit costing only a couple of dollars he is foolish to pay $150 for the scenery which the average clothier nangs on him.

S You will see the reason and be thoroughly convinced. If you will read the splendid articles on the Sa lem slogan pages. S The Bits for Breakfast man has not the figures: but the facts arc something like this: The Oregon Growers' Co-operative association organised last year with 91.000.000 capital stock: half com mon, half preferred. The common was taken by the fruit growers who igned up their acreage furnishing money to start ousiness; the pre ferred was also taken largely by them, furnishing money to buy the local plants some 17 of them, in the Willamette valley and southern Oregon. Some common and some preferred are yet unsold; but 'he bulk of it taken by the growers. So far. so good. Then the associa tion needed $500,000 more cash, to buy boxes and labels and wrapping oaper and other supplies for tbe com ing crop. Did the blc Portland banks furnish the half million? Not they. The country banks furnished ill of the half million the banks backed the growers. Now.. Isn't that some record something to make a common clod hopper nroud? Here are the fruit growers of western Oregon who have in a single rear organized themselves into a great packing and shipping and sell ing concern; and put up a mlllioa and a hair dollars to get ready for their work. Now, watch the smoke of those fruit crnwenr. They ate going down the line to make Oregon fruit known and tbj name of Oregon as a fruit crowinc state respected the wilde world over. HF.I.MOXT. Man..
