Society Editor, 101 Entered at the Postof flee in 8alem, Oregon, as second class matter EVEUY ONE INTERESTED IN HOG INDUSTRY it . - 1 K - ' . - Editor Statesmant " " ' j We wish to thank you. for printing our article on Ore gon's Hog Situation, for we know that your paper reaches a great many of the farmer?, and this news as a consequence is disseminated accordingly. In the heading of the article you make this statement "A matter of great concern to all our people." You ask the average business man or mer chant if he is interested in the livestock business, and he will i tell you no, but all merchants, bankers, professional and bus iness men are silent partners in the livestock business. There lis not a good cow or brood sow, shipped to the country, but 'What each of the foregoing mentioned are vitally interested In the same. A great many of the' business men are com . plaining because business is at a standstill, or not what they I think it should be. Very few of them stop to think that the jhog industry plays so great a part in business as it does. When we stop to think that the shortage of hog production jin the Northwest necessitated the spending of from four to 'five million dollars through the Midwest for hogs to supply Ithe demand in the Northwest during the past year, took this N 'amount of money out of circulation in the Northwest, and bt necessity had a bearing on business interests of all kinds; (his proves that .we are all partners in the livestock business, arid should one and all do what we can do to further this .interest. Again- thanking you for the publicity you gave our com- itnunieation, I remain, . ' K ?V C K Jui VCT ycry truly yours, ( ;y 145r v " C. M. McAlister. s ieia Man, romana union stocK x arris. If- (Oregon is interested in the swine breeding industry. And 'will.be till the hiatus of five million dollars, a year is taken up-- ?

Till the Northwest raises enough hogs to supply both the local demand., aid the packing: de mand very much increased; increased -to the point of satur ation of ; the markets available in : the wide world to our packers ;' arid ! mor&! especially the markets in the countries bordering on the Pacific ocean A , And that will take years; perhaps generations. If there could be a wider and. more intensive camrjaicrn carried 'on ofgrK&svtiest of years, an enlargement of the campaign carried, on by The Statesman in its Salem Slogan and Pep and Progress, pages, for the production of the things in which our sectioYi excels and for the doing of the things we candoest, .and at greater profit than other , sections, not only the Salem'district, but all Oregon,' and all the North west would prosper exceedinglyand grow 'steadily .with a Gibralter prosperity and growth that could not be halted 'or shaken. s, . The Cherringo y v s It begins tonight, and runs three nighu. S This carnnival should bring in a couple of thousand dollars for the hospital fund. S S With the Cherringo, the" circus and blossom day. Salem will be lively for the next four days. S Mothers day will be Sunday, the 14th. s s s With all the new buildings in every direction, the house hunt ers are still having hard sledding in Salem. The old town is grow ing apace; almost atrot. " S S S One of the big demands for fruit is for canned pears from Oregon. The Salem district should have 1000 good pear trees for every one now growing. Good Salem district pears were never cheap, and they will never be cheap during your life time. x At the election of Tuesday the voters of Seattle overwhelmingly defeated the proposition for a 3 cent fare on the municipal street railways, the main cost of main tenance and operation to come out of the general taxpayers. Thef vote was 15,281 in favor of and 40,222 against it. So Seattle did not go crazy, as it was predicted she would by a Salem visitor some days ago. S S Here are some paragraphs from the current weekly tinancial fet ter of Henry Clews, the Wall street authority: "Domestic bus iness has steadily advanced in ac tivity." "The steel industry is sow booked farther ahead than at any time since the low point of the business" depression." "Building activities show a very marked increase all over the coun try, and the same is true of other enterprises calling for the use of steel and basic materials, includ- ing copper." "While some re tardation of Industry - has un doubtedly resulted from the strike situation (coal strike and New England textile strike), official figures appear to indicate that there is a net gain in the num ber of persons employed, even af ter deducting the men who are voluntarily idle." Germs of Disease should be promptly expelled from the blood. This is a time when the system is especially susceptible to them. Get rid of all impurities in the blood by taking Hood's Sarsa parilla, and thus fortify your whole body and preventillnesB. Adv.. Vi- ! Everybody has his or her trou bles in thls world and we should not be too flippant about the hardships of which others com plain.

Aunt Stacy found it hard to un derstand Eleanor, who had been left on her hands when Eleanor's mother, who was always "ailing," had gone to a sanitarium to stay for several months. Eleanor was as bad. as her mother when it tame to worrying about. ache an! pains. , .-..'-' The next day Eleanor again an nounced that she was sore her mother would want her to see a doctor.

THE GIANT VOICE 1 A story about a voice that can be heard all over, a whole valley sounds like a fairy tale about a gianL It isn't, However., It's a story about a machine called an amplifier that magnifies, the hu man voice so that worda spoken quietly in one place can: be heard loudly miles away, r Such a machine bas been made for life-saving purposes. Many places in America terrific storms burst suddenly and in an hour or less make quiet rivers Into raging torrents. Or the spring rains and the melting of snow In tbe moun tains may bring - down 'disaster. People are killed because they can not be warned jn time to get away to higher places. 'With such a machine as-the amplifier, when a river is getting out of control and there is dan ger, word can be. shouted to the valley below, warning ' them that they will have a chance cape. Up v in the CatekiU mountains of New York state they. have been making tests wHV this-' machine. A tower JO feet highwas bu'lt and the amplifiers .were, set np on it, with "great projectors to throw the voice le a ; distance. -a In order to see how far the voice would carry, four men were placed at distances of -one, two. three and four, miies-irpm the tower, and each carried' a lighted torch Then, theiwatcher in the tower, spoke .Into": fctie machine in an ordinary voice, telling the men to wave their torches. And one by one the four men waved, the torches. Other directions given were also heard clearly. , A series of such towers, four miles apart along a mountain stream, would make . it -possible for -the giant voice to send warn ings from the hills down to the people endangered in the valley. to.es- TRAINING FOR A MOVIE COMEDIAN ' i J' PERFECT.
