Go From the Willamette Valley in Car Lots to the
Breakfast Food Manufacturers We Raise the Heav
iest Oats, Too
The great manufacturers of;
kreakfast foods la the east come
to the Willamette Talley to buy
their best oats ; and then our con
sumers buy part of the product
sack from them. ,: .
An Oregon booster, in a public
speech In Salem recently, made
the statement that' the eastern
breakfast food manufacturers take
II the Willamette.Yalley oats they
can get; take them In car lots,
preferring the product secured
here abore any other In the whole
I world.
This booster thinks this fact
ought to be heralded to every
farmer of this section-that our;
farmers can "cash in on" this pri
macy, If tbey will "get wise" and
organize and work for the highest
possible quality,' and demand a
hade better prices than are paid
for an Inferior quality of oats.
The Willamette Talley oats
weigh more to the bushel, too,
than any other grows.

Miss Ella McMunn Has Heard That Bread Is the SUff
of Life, But She Wants Hers Hot and Buttered A lot
of Good Suggestions for the Managers of. the Oregon
State Fair
Private to the Editor:
I don't want people to think
that I am anxious to get my name
ia the paper, (although I m),
but I seem so full of things to
say, that I think ahould be said,
I am sure you will pardon me tor
what might seem an unseemly de
sire to rush Into print. There is
sot anything I can add to the mill
and mill feed number. I have
heard that bread is the staff of
lire, but I do not know who said it
first. I suppose it was God, may
be, or Shskesoeare. and It wasi
God of course, or some of His imf
mediate family that said man
should not live by bread alone. I
do not care for bread. It Is just
a last resort with me. and then it
has rot to be DlDing hot from the
-oven and swimming in butter ana

But I understand, that bread Is
when we had to make bread out
of horse feed and sawdust and ce
ment, there was a fuss wasn t
there. And did you know that
there are twenty-two publications
devoted to grain and milling? Two
are in Canada and the rest in the
U. S. Some are monthly, most of
them weekly and one is a daily.
So in spite of my perverted taste
bread is Important, and mush, al
though I don't like that either.
Oh yes, about peaches. They
were frost injured, of course, hut
we can raise some more In four
years, and just think of how many
fine, grand, glorious, delicious
peaches Oregon has raised, and
a matter of fact, if we had not a
climate permitting things to be
still in a sappy state in winter it
would never have happened. And
wish you would ask for contri
butions, reports on. the sorghum
planted this spring. Mama'a sorg
hum is just fine. As big and husky
as corn, but, lacking a mill, she
will feed it to the cow for fodder.
And say, was it not too bad that
I forgot to mention the star per
formance of the tractor, which
was clearing the streets of snow
during the upleasantness last win
ter when neither man nor beast
was equal to the job? Mr. Huber's
article was quite interesting. Isn't
it elegant to have money to travel
and brains enough to appreciate
what you see. and strength enough
not to get tired. I am always
wishing to go some place, but Lord
I simply have-delirium tremens
and St. Vitus dance when I just
go as far as Salem. But sometime
I hope to see Lake Labish! It Is
three miles from here, where I
have lived so many years. Oh
damn,' damn! But that has noth
ing to do with the subject of oys
ters. There is something about
oysters that nobody can tell me.
I asked Mrs. Swanton of the Hu
mane Society and ahe asked Col
Hofer, and I have concluded that

thing about oysters. Tours sin

Suggestions for the Managers of
the Oregon State Fair.
(Miss McMunn's suggestions are
good ones, aa her suggestions al
ways are. She is always a very
present help in trouble, especially
when the Salem Slogan editor is
so rushed with work that he does
not know how in the wide world
he is going to get through, or half
way through; and she is a peach
of a writer on peaches or any oth
er good thing under the sun. She
intended the following for the Ed
itorials of the People department,
but the Salem Slogan editor has
appropriated it and purloined
and taken it to print in this de
partment, with the hope that
wiil be read more widely, and its
pertinent and sage suggestions
heeded more certainly:)

Another thing that would add
materially to the pleasure of vis

charge of exhibits at least some
time during the day ON THE

themselves, but often additional

Editor Statesman:
It is with rejoicing that we note
that Oregon women are taking an
especially active interest in the
coming state fair. In years past
all departments handled by men
for men have been well handled
but the things that appeal partic
ularly to women have not received
the consideration due them. I re
fer to bousing the exhibits, which
have-entirely outgrown the space
allotted them.
Beginning with the textile de
partment, (which, as everybody
DOES XT know, is needlework)
there Is a very great need of addi
tlonal space. At least twice the
floor space could be occupied to
advantage, as many choiee pieces
of needlework are folded so as to
show but a mere fraction of the
piece, all because the space Is so
limited.' And the crowding in the
aisles by the thousands who annu
ally view the exhibit makes it dif
ficult for late comers to see any
thing but the backs of other wo
men bending over the show cases
The art department ,has more
exhibitors than in years past and
less space, while the arrangement
allowing visitors to enter either
door causes confusion that could
be overcome by a one way travel
system. I note that there is Lope
of securing the Klser pictures for
the fair. If this is accomplished
something must be done to ftnd
