WHAT NATIONAL ADVERTISING MEANS TO SALEM AND THE SALEM DISTRICT I National advertising is a subject of tremendous impor tance to Salem and the Salem district Coupled with quality products, proper distribution ant', selling energy, it mean? the stabilizing of market demands over the wide world fojri what we raise and manufacture and ship ,..-'- L I . And it means the creation of a goodwill demand that in a measure gives control tot our producers ; compels the co-operation of the dealers all-clown the, line; not only for the crops of a season or a year, but throughout the years. It insures a sure and steady expansion. !" ' It has been said that advertising is the life blood of bus iness; and it is also thQ most powerful agent of industrial aim cummuiiuy cAyunaiuu auu yxuapemy. note are King's Food Products company, the 1'bez company, and tLe Oregon Growers Cooperative a.hoclation.

For instance, it would pay the Salem district to aJvrtie our quality oats the kind that Ko into the breakfast foods. Iu the course of time, we will be adver tising our qualify walnuts with their nutty flavor, our filbert;1, and our apples and pwars'of the varieties in which we excel, and many other products in which we beat the world, and no doubt, also. Morne of the quility kinds of paper we make. And there will be many other lines, of course, not thought of now.

The development of shipping in large quantities by water will make the difference in favor of the eastern markets in many sections even more favorable to our. producers and our man ufacturers and shippers' of local products.; I Witness this: It costs only about twice as much to land a carload of paper Portland 'by ship from Norway as it does to ship the same car of paper irom Portland to.

Would you tolerate anything that is do ing that? Then, after you lume listened to what I bay, see if there aren't some things that couid be made better. If you'll start at the city limits In any part of town and waik toward the business section you'll not find it difficult to count a score of wood piles standing in the 'street or in the parking adja cent. And you'll probably find at least one pile in the process of be ing sawed right on the street. My query is this: Is this the best civic pride ijalem can show? Is this economy Is this Justified by the saving in work? Or is it just sheer laziness? I have an opinion. in a miauie western city at tne outbreak of the war there arose a shortage of teamsters. With win ter coming on and the resulting lamor for coal the situation be came acute, inasmuch as the con sumers were in the habit of plac ing the coal directly in the base ment rather than allowing it dumped on the lawn mind you lawn. But the coal companies said they could not meet the situ ation by any other means than de- ivering the coal to the lawn and this they did. Now the coal wa? in sacks fcnd there was very little dirt left on the lawn and altogeth er the situation was much less dis pleasing than the one in Salem But this city had a council and the council was awake. It took them jusjt a few minutes to say that no coal should remain on the lawn or parking in the residence section more than 24 hours. v-JLast winter I had occasion to ride on a bicycle out North Church street. It was dark and raining and my light was poor. Where this street runs parallel with the creek a. large pile of sand had been placed and ao umler the con ditions Just named I encountered this pile of sand. . Now. inasmuch as my bathing habits are regular was not inconvenienced but 1 was provosea. ints was more than six months ago and there haiH not been a week since that that stretch of pavement on North ssnurcn- street has been free of some such obstruction. Builders mix their cement on tne street for the city to haul away at the public expAse; why is this thing goes further some man will erect a garage upon the pavement for convenience: whv not? Even the business section at times looks like a wood yard. aiem 13 beautiful naturaJlv: why not expend a little effort to ennance this beautv?

From what the. .officers of the United States National Bank have learned of human beings, if two men of equal edu cation and brains seem one to get ahead, and the other to stand, still, the differ ence is usually in their saving power.

It won't bo so terribly li tter at that. The berries were never bet-' t-r afitl they were nevr so plenti ful. The vines in the ia.stures and alongr the fenee rows, are fairly heaped with berries that will soon be road for the picking. A hupe acreage of the cultivat ed berries will also come into the market. These civilized and home tended berries are the ear lier part of the crop, sevetal days ahead of the r wild brothers. It is the cultivated part of the crop that will furniph the first consign ments. They will be exhausted much earlier, so that the tail-end of the crop v. ill be exclusively the wild product Aral llai Highest Yanl On the Aral farm, on route 3. v.e3t of (lervais. what is said to be tho largest field of blackber ries in the county, 31 acres in all. The owner expects to furn'sh work for 100 nickers while the season last. fart of tnts neia was for 20 years in hop, with out a change, until the slump in hops four years ago. Then it was st out to blackberries. It takes four years for a field of blackberries really to reach its peak of product'on. The old canes are destroyed each year. but with the succeeding year !he roots grow st'onge and tit-? !r-nr- ng is. ;n"3 pro' use. One eisht- acre set;fM of the Aral vineyard is estimated to bo good for four tons of berries to the acre this year. Large Tonnage at Ot va! The llrown vineyard near O.er- va's has 30 acres of excellent ber ries. There is considerable ac reage near Mt. Angel, and the t'mber pastures fairly exnde blackberries. On one farm near West Woodburn it is estimated that 70 tons of the berries will he harvested and sold. The berries start at 4 cents, a heavy tonnage having been con tracted for at that prlcl. The Aral berries go to the Producers' Canning & Packing company on a cooperative basis. Everywhere the growers expect to make a much better fhow'ng than -they did with logp.ns this year, in, fact the blackberr'es start at what was the maximum price for lo- gans, and may easily go htgner before the season closes. The co- operativa fcunerles expect to make a better price than thid min imum. Much Work in Sight There will be work for reveral hundred pickers in the various berry fields, enough to make a gratifying betterment in the un employment figures that the la bor records have Fhown since the loganberry reason closed. Pear harvest will begin in a small way next week. The can ners and dehydrators should be at work on this crop .within the next ten days, according to pres et indications. The crop seems to Improve with the season, so that the yield approaches more nearly to :i normal production than the earlier figures Indicated. ii'-sday. Friends of Mrs. 11. .1.

During the past two years at which time the Lincoln county fair has been held the week preceding the state fair, difficulty has been encountered caused by the inclement weather: consequently, the board reached the decision this year to hold the ttir the second week of Stem ber. This year the livestock and poultry exhibits wUl be special features.
