ADVERTISING RUINED HIS BUSINESS?
A chap told me the other day that advertising had ruined
his business.
"Advertising; ruined your business?" I said aghast.
"Whjlgood heavens, man, I hardly knew of a business which
is sudctsslul m a large way that doesn't owe practically its
entire success to advertising."
'IWell you see, Henry," he replied rather lamely, "my
competitors advertised and I didn't."
Today, competition is based upon advertising. Statistics
show I that over 80 per cent of the business failures of the
United States are among those firms who spend nothing on
awertisjng. That statement is so conclusive as to admit of
no argument.
, TheYact that you have the superior product will not as
sure you predominance over those of lesser quality unless you
show the world why yours is the more desirable.
. Folks won't know, unless you tell them. If they know,
they Jwon't remember, unless you remind them. If they re
member, they'll forget unless you remind them.
, j And the moral is, "Be thou not numbered among that 80
per cent who know not the magic of the Printed Word!"

Fruit authorities report an in
creased demand In the Willam
ette valley for plums and prunes
for canning. Formerly the small
varieties, such as the Green Gage
and Havay, have been preferred,
but of late some of the trade
asks for the larger sir.es of both
plums and prunes in cans. Tbe
new Japanese plum, the Shiro,
is gaining favor with both prow
era and canners. It is evident
that it is going to pay our far
mers to give more attention to
plums, along with their other
fruits.
There is no doubt that the 1925 Portland fair is already
attracting a great deal of favorable comment throughout the
country and the world over; and no doubt that it is already
putting confidence in the people at home, and causing them
to make larger and more ambitious jlans for the future, and
thereby stimulating business generally in Oregon. There may
bo disputes as to how the great enterprise is to be or ought
to be financed, but there is no doubt, even this far in ad
vance, concerning the immense benefits it is going to confer;

this state
' JThe unemployment conference to be held at Washington
will ho doubt do a great deal of good. But it must come to
the conclusion that the big thing to get the idle people of
the United States back to work is to enact the protective
tariff law. It is the next thing to a crime ; indeed, it is a high
crime, that thisessential thing has been delayed so long. It
should have been completed in tWrty days after the ushering
in of the new administration. There are many things the
unemployment conference may "conclude should.be done; may
aid in having done. But nothing can be done that will be ef
fective without the protective tariff. Great numbers of our
people are idle because the work they should, be doing is be
inz done in Europe and the Orient, by cheap labor. That is
the whole thing in a nutshell.

OUR WALNUT CROP
Tbe following information,
contained in the Oregon Grower
for September, just published, is
of interest to all the growers of
walnuts in the valley and this
fortunately already a big in
dustry in the Salem district, and
happily growing bigger from
year to year, and ought to grow
much faster, by new plantings.
and by the grafting over to
Franquettes and Mayettcs of all
of the black walnut trees there
abouts. The Oregon Grower is
the official paper of the Oregon
Growers Cooperative association
Following is the article:
A circular sent out by the: Cali-
fornit Walnut Growers associa
tion estimates that the state will
now produce from 36,000,000 to
40,000,000 pounds of walnnts.
It was thought early in the spring
that CO, 000.000 pounds would he
produced, but owing to frostf
and storms, the crop was quite
materially injured. It is belier
ed the crop this year will .mature
a week to ten days earlier than
last year.
Reports coming from Europe
are to the effect that the crop
over there is extremely light.
owing to drouth and unfavorable
growing conditions. Not only is
the crop light, but the trees are
diseased and weakened, meaning
that Europe will not export a
many walnuts to us as they did
a year ago.
What the Oriental importa
tions will amount to no one seems
to be able to predict at this itime.
The crop in Oregon is much
greater than a year ago. Many
of the young orchards are just
beginning to reach their stride.
Harvesting Walnut
Members who are handling
walnut3 for the first time should
study this question very care
fully and obtain as much infor
mation as possible from men who
are experienced In the handling
of walnuts. After a walnut
drops to the ground, it should
r.oi do auoweu to remain very
long, If portions of the hull
remain attached, the nut will be
come discolored.
After a nut is once picked up
if it is in a moist condition, it
should not ordinarily be allowed
to remain In a sack over 4S
hours. If it produces mould on
the outside, it is also very apt to
produce mould on the inside
ine nuts snouia te picked up
every few days during the seas

which a part of the hull attaches,

soften, and can be easily re
moved.
urainarlly. it takes three
pretty good pickings to - handle
the walnut crop. On the last
picking, the tree should be thor
oughly shaken or long bamboo
poles used to knock off whatever
nuts cling to the tree.
Sacking
As soon as nuts are picked up
tney should be placed in sacks
and hauled promptly to some
point where the nuts can be

cling to the shell-' when the nuts
are dried they will be streaked
and stained.
With plenty of water and a
good stiff broom, nuts can be
washed nict-iy in this way. Of
course, the mehanical washers
are much to Le preferred. Nuts
may be dried in ordinary prune
driers. However, be sure the
trays have been thoroughly
cleaned so that there are no re
mains of prunes to stick to the
nuts. The temperature should !
not be allowed to gtt over y;i
degrees, as a higher temperature
breaks down the oils, unseals
the shells and often ruins the
nuts. A temperature much be
low 80 degrees will develop
mould on the nuts without dry
ing them rapidly enough.
Two days and nights with con
stant fire or four days with no
fire at night, should dry the nuts.
The nuts should not be dried to
the point where the kernels be
come brittle; the little membrane
or follicle between the meats of
the nut is sometimes used as an
indication of proper drying.
When this becomes brittle so it
will break when bent sharply,
the nuts are thoroughly dried.
Members of the association are
planning to do their own harvest
ing and washing this year. The
nuts, however, will be sent to a
central plant for grading and for
the cracking of culls. Four
grades were adopted at a meet
ing held by the walnut growers
in Salem recently. The Jumbo
grade, including nuts of one and
one-quarter inch diameter or
over. Mistland Grafted grade,
including nuts one and one six
teenth or over in diameter. Mist
land Xa. 1, to be one inch or
over in diameter, and No. 2.
under one inch in diameter.
Arrangements will be made to
crack the culls and sell the meats
to confectioners and grocers
Members of the association will
receive due notice as to the place
to ship the nuts after they are
dried, so that they may be grad
ed and worked into the pool.

GROW t'OVKR CROPS
(September Oregon Grower.)
Those growers who did not
plant a cover crop in late August
or early September, 6hould lose
no time in planting at once
Many growers are r.till making
the vital mistake of planting
cover crops late in September cr
early October. The latter plants
come up at a time when heavy
tains or frosts come alone, and
as a resuit there is a very weak
growth to turn under in the
spring.
The Ideal time to plant cover
crops is late in August or in
early September. In planting, do
not sow broadcast, but drill in
with a seed drill. The peed will
germinate better and there will
be a much more uniform stand
than if the seed is broadcasted.
