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. Hd vertiing dehydrat
ed fiuits and vegetables, logan
berry juice, etc., and prunes and
other fruits
And there shouM be others,
and will be. 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.

. j It does not cost appreciably more in freight charges to
reach the 99,000,000 people east of the Rockies than it does
to reach the 11,000,0001 on the western slope; it costs very
much less to land a car of fruit in New York or Boston or Chi
cago than to send the same car to Denver.
j This takes into consideration only rail freight charges.
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

The indirect" immiKratlon of
lioKiicvik Hill SiH-aks
Editor Statesman: Would you
do anything to spoil the reputa
tion of this wonderful city? 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 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.

HOW HE DOES IT
COMET1MES one man looks at another,
with whom perhaps he went to
school, and seeing his greater prosperity,
says half-enviously "how does he do it?"
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.
Ilow about itis your saving ability
equal to your earning?

It won't bo so terribly li tter at
that. The berries were never bet-'

ful. The vines in the ia.stures

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

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.

even all the Odd Fellows them
selves have sanct'oned. With trie
new building Joining the old, the
tower will have lost even its pres
ent architectural balance, and
they're a "raid that merely being
odd might get them somewhere
with other too-odd jpeople.
With the walls already practi
cally ready to use, and the base
ment excavation well under way,
the tower may be said to be a
burning question. At least, the
woodwork would burn, say the
proponents of its eradication.
"Sister, O. sister, fly op to the

razing of the tower on the old
building. The plan will be to
make the whole building front,

Earlier Dates Set For
Fair in Lincoln County
TOLEDO. Ore.. Aug. 10. (Spe
cial to The Statesman) The
earliest county fair to be held in
the state will be the Lincoln coun
ty fair, to be held at Toledo, Sep
tember 8, 9, and 10. 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. A new etock barn 4 0
by 100 feet is being built upon the
fair grounds, the newly organized
Lincoln County Jersey Cattle club
having already arranged for the
financing and constructing of this
building.
