PRIVATE ENTERPRISES DECLARED TO BE BEST Condition of Local Baths Said to Be Knock to Wel ; : fare of City ? "Let's get out of this town. I would, rather camp in the country than stay In this camp. '. . This is 'said to hare happened more than once at the Salem mu nicipal camp, i It really happened last night, and the man ' is still here to stand by it. -C Mr. and Mrs. Honker O. Griffith of Sacramento are. touring Oregon, partly for , business. s- partly, for pleasure. They expected to stay In the1 Salem camp all the week. They really did stay only one night and then moved out. a Mr. Griffith in a friendly way made his criti cism of what Salem had to of far. . , Bath dosed Early , . - He told of' a camper coining in 'at 8 'o'clock, io'r find the bath clos ed after a long:, hot, dusty day on the road. - The Salem baths are good enough for some forms of camp, when open; but with only one shower each for the men and the women, and sometimes 50 or , eren 100 people of an evening wanting a bath at eacbrpt&ce, It's a line-up serried that is Yery re pugnant to many, especially to the women travelers. , There Is practically no privacy in the wo men's quarters and no doors to the lavatories and bowls. Private Camps nest , . Mr. Griffith spoke i particularly' of the unattractive entrance to the Salem rcamp, which he raid was enough to discourage a visitor both coming and going. - He said that there were not enough lights to make it safe at night. I , "The best camps I have seen are the private camps, and they are all making money -' like mints," said Mr. Griffith. J "They sell ser vice, and they Invest enough mon ey to make their places attractive. Everywhere along the road has Salem beat, I regret to say." Business Future . With such a reputation. Salem is risking its business and social future, In the opinion of Mr. Grif fith and other visitors who have compared the Salem accommoda tions with those of other ? com munities, almost always to the dis paragement of Salem. It has been estimated that $500 would go a long way toward caring for most of the visitors wants -and the revenues this year ought, to produce tb or . three times that much net profit. With the gen eral estimate that tourist spend at least a dollar a day in transit, the verge cf 250 or more people In the Salem camp grounds every night means a lot of profit to the people of Salem. I Receipts Would Grow If the camp receipts could be doubled, or J trebled, ths ; camp grounds and the net city receipts would increase likewise and the advertising value of a pleased cli entele ought to be worth a thous and times what it now la. . The Statesman repeats these criticisms In the belief that the sooner the conditions complained of are remedied, the sooner Salem will get right with the traveling public and its money and its good will. , LADDUE BOY HOME NEWTONVILLE, Mass..

Losing-of tools Is a familiar cause tor stopping oil well drilling, but at the Murray rig, at. Lake Basin the drilling has ceased because the, crew lost their nerve after seeing four nights in succession the ghost of a mate who was killed by a fall from the derrick two months ago. I Four nights the specter of Bill Culbertson has returned to the derrick and has stood on the ex act spot on the beams from which he fell. Thursday morning most of ,v the workers hurried into Bil lings and resigned , their jobs. Others remained I to see whether Culbertson 's j ghost ! would come back a fifth time before deciding tq quit or stay. i 'Roy Foley, who was employed on the rig, told the story immedi ately after his resignation Thurs day morning to Art Wismeyer, local ' representative of the well. He said five men of the crew Were sitting on the planks lead ing from the rig to the engine room Sunday night. . They were singing songs 'when Culbertson's apparition on the derrick, about half way to the top, had left the five men speechless and songless. Monday night at about the same time it returned. Tuesday "bight it did the same. A short time af ter drilling was begun one of the Murrays was in Minneapolis on business. . More for. a Joke than anything else, he visited a widely known clairvoyant for the pur pose of asing how the well would finish from; a. producing stand point. She declared that a man would be killed on the rig before the oil-bearing sands were pene trated, j Murray immediately telephoned by long; distance a warning to be more than, usually cautious at the well. A short time after he had returned Culbertson was killed.

Southard, living two miles west of Dallas, bought and came to his present farm three years ago. He had been a contractor and builder at Boise, Idaho, for many years. But he believed Ore gon Was a good . enough farm country, and he pinned his faith on flax as about the best thing in sight. He Is now hauling in his 1923 flax crop for the Oregon state prison to work up. One field of this flax, 14 acres, has made three tons I to the acre. It was all pulled. None of It was' short enough to have to be cut for tow. It pays Into the Southard treasury $105 an acre. That's a good crop. It leaves some good cash money sticking to the j grower's pockets. 'A few years ago the first aristocratic "Hundred-Dollars-an-Acre", Farm dub1 was - organized in irrigated Idaho. They raised clover and al falfa seed, seed peas, sugar beets, andi a few other such Intensive farm crops that paid them $100 or more an acre'. But here's an Oregon" farmer dragging" down" more than $100 an acre and not making a bit of fuss about it. Mr. Southard offered a prize of $2 for the. best, and $1 for the next best, bundle of flax prepared by any of his pullers. He had 30 people at work in his fields, who pulled all the crop by hand. Thursday, afternoon Robert Craw- ford, of the state flax : mill, and James , Hawthorne of . New .York, a flax expert, now visiting in the Willamette valley, inspected the Bundles prepared, .and awarded first place to Harry Edwards and second to Mrs. Barber. . When they announced to Edwards that his, bundle was the best shown, he said: . "Say,- there's another bundle up here in the other shed that they wanted put into the con test," and he chased off to get It. "They might beat you," the judges advised him. v "Aw, I don't care, if they have the best they ought to get the prize," he called back. and he soon returned with the other sheaf. It really wasn't as good as his own, but he was a game sport. . The Rickreall warehouse Is now almost full of flax. Too large a. proportion of it Is the short flax that will have to. go into tow. but there is some wonderfully fine fiber, flax . in . bundles that will make many a bride's linen chest look like an everlasting Christ mas celebration. Former Con gressman "Pat" McArthur, whose fine farm . Is near Rickreall, 'had 16 Nacres of flax this year, "which he said was .his one , big money crop. He plans, to put In 60 acres next year. . Some . of the local short yields are said to be due to late sowing, a fault that can be overcome as the. growers come to realize the importance ot earlier sowing. -. i ' A vitally Important meeting of the growers of the valley is called for tonight at 7:30 at the Cham ber of Commerce. The state will announce its flax policy for 1924, and a number of important mat ters will come up for discussion.
