This is the opinion not alone of this writer; it was voiced yesterday in the presence of this writer by a man the mention of whose name and connection would carry convic tion to any one at all posted on the situation. , A considerable new acreage'of loganberries in the Salem district will come into bearing next year And a very much larger new acreage in 1922. ' There is literally millions in the loganberry industry for this district I ! . r U Millions annually If everv Dossible care is taken of the industry. r ' The canneries and the jam and jelly plants and the de hydration and. cold pack concerns shipping loganberries can not alone take care of the crops that are coming on in future years And could not find a market for all the surplus if they could get then! all in shape for marketing. . . . So the rapid growth of Salem and the highest prosperity of the surrounding country are very closely bound up with the fortunes of the Phez Company; and The Statesman be lieves that the growers of the Salem, district and the people of Salem could afford to join in taking all the preferred stock . i t re i i ii ni r"i " I j,nai is Deing oiiereu uy uiu ruw vMiuywy ....... rr Months ago the Turkish Na tionalists, crk-d ta high heaven r.gainst the terms of the peace treaty presented to the Sublime Port? by the allies. Sooner than submit they went on the warpath. with Mustapha Ivemal as leader. Now they have forced Armenia to sirn an agreement that rela tively is just as severe and unfair as the Moslems considered . the other pact to be. How can they expect modification of their own sentence when they mete out so cruel a future to the unfortunate Armenians? The peace makes the little country smaller and practi cally defenseless by taking away most of its armaments. Under these conditions the word peace is indeed a mockery for the long suffering people.

Dee. 10. (To the Editor.) -What is the ruatter with the prune growers of Oregon? ' The other day I went Into the 'table supply store here and asked for some Italian prunes. They showed me feme 40-30 and I asked what they were. The clerk answered rather chestily that they were California Santa Clara French prunes and the price was 40 cents a pound. I asked him if he did not have some 20- 0 Oregon Italian prunes and he answered In a rather disgusted manner, "No." sir; they are not good enough for our trade." Having stopped at the Hotel Portland years ago, when that hotel put up prunes, four of which made a Hah. and they were the finest thing that was ever set on a table, gaining a national reputation and one of the biggest advertisements the Willamette valley ever had, as weii as Port land. I got Into a frame of mind that the least said the better, and left. I However, now my wfe tells me that she receives the same treat ment. At all the stores they laugh at her and tell her that if s.he wants good prunes, she cer tainly displays ignorance by ask ing for Oregon prunes. Some years ago' I was in Salt Lake and ate most of the time at a." place called the Vienna cafe. The above appeared In the Ore gonian of a few days ago. Mr. Reinhardt deserves praise for his patriotic spirit and credit for his intelligence and good taste For the Oregon prune is the best prune grown And the very thing is happen ing which he" advocates. : The Oregon Growers' Co-operative association is juft now fpending $50,000 in advertising Oregon prunes in the east; most ly in the city of New York and its vicinity. The trade name "Mistland" hai been chosen for the best Oregon prunes, and, in due -course, all the world. will come to know that there is only one kind of prune that is really good for those with educated tastes who know what a really good piune is like.

It may not be fair for any to do that let us hope so for the sake of the cook! The dlseas?, dyspepsia, indicates a bad stomach, that is a weak I stomach, rather than a bad cook, j and for a weak stomach we know of nothing el.e equal to Hood's' Sarsaparilla. The digestive and j tonic medicine helps the stomach, j gives it vigor and tone, relieves ! dyspepsia, creates an appetite. ' and mak?s eating the pleasure it i should be. The b.liousness and constipa tion found in so many cases of dyspepsia are gently and thor oughly relieved by Hood's Pills, which act in perfect harmony wiMi Howl's Sarsaparilla. M. J. R.
