SALEM THE STRAWBERRY CITY
' . Last year the canneries of Salem put tip 83 per cent of the
Scanned strawberry pack of the entire Pacific Northwest. They
fcut' up 60,000 cases of strawberries; 1,440,000 cans of straw
berries -
- And this did not include the strawberries shipped in bar
rels, prepared for the markets in other forms, or marketed in the
Afresh state. ' :
1 The figures have pot yet been made up for the present
year r -
$ ' But there is ample information contained in this issue of
.The I Statesman to show that the strawberry industry in this
district will persist; that it will grow.
It is a very important thing at this time to have such a
"review of the industry, as jf given in the Slogan pages
And why! ; -"O
- Because there have been some misgivings about disappoint
ments concerning some of the -new varieties; especially the
'sEttersurgl2Ivariet I
lj ,, And there has been a search for improved varieties.
5 ; But a reading of the interview with County Fruit Inspector
iVan Trump, and of the various letters from correspondents
Answering' the; questionnaire, will be reassuring.' A large num
bcr of letters were sent out to growers, asking for articles, and
bnly a few responded; but those few have given a very good
review of the conditions as they now exist.
Both the Ettersburg 121 and the Trebla have their friends;
Jand this review will have a tendency to consign them to their
.proper places in the industry . ; t j
4 And the never ending search for still better varieties will
go on. It should go on. Earl Pearcy suggests that Salem ought
Jto have a branch experiment station for the purpose of solving
the pollination and varietal problems, for strawberries and other
Ismail fruits. He says branch stations at Hood River and Med--ford
are provided to assist the apple and pear men, and the
"great berry industry is entitled to state aid in developing and
solving its vital problems. . " , . j . 5
a This is timely. This help ought by all means to be provided,
and the work might cover a very wide range here, the center
sf a great fruit industry, including besides strawberries the
various bush and, tree fruits and nuts, and not merely one or
t wo kinds. '. ' i '' '
The Oregon Agricultural, college ought by all means to be
i brought more actively and persistently, into the search for im
fproved strawberry varieties, adapted to our conditions:
& In the mean time K M. Bailey, writing in the Slogan col-,-jmns,
reports what he thinks is a very important find in an
'improved varietyof rawiicrries--nr accidental find; This ts
well worth watching! ' There are many cases of this kind. The
Hoganberry is due to a chance find of Judge Logan. The seed
less orange cmes from & chance find of an American mission
ary in South America. t 1 1 I
f Irrigation is bound fo play an increasingly important part
ln our strawberry industry. J v i :t
? ' There is great progress being made by our plant growers,
"Weeks & Pearmine. They are wide awake, and they are only
i beginning in their big development work. 1 4
VThis issue of T,he Statesman will help to' get' the strawberry
industry out of the dumps. It will go on with a wider vision;
with a clearej;. track ahead. . .. . - '. ,i
t One thing the Slogap editor would like to say: He does
riot object to work; but there ought to be better cooperation on
the part of the men engaged in the various industries. When
. you are invited to write, that is your'duty. It-is an important
duty. It is your industry. These Slogan issues are for your
good, as well as for the general good 1 Do your bit. Do as well
as the walnut and filbert men did. It divides the immense
amount of work somewhat, and it gives'a better general view,
for the good of the whole industry. . . i

!nt!j''bat may be plainly read
between the lines. ' The Telegram
places' the "pork , barrel" idea
foremost In public affairs and
seems to think that the people of
any city or county receiving state
appropriations should obey orders
rom the powers that control the
state's big city, and have no right
to think for themselves and vote
their honest convictions. That
appraises the Inalienable right of
suffrage at a very. low valuation.
Neither-does it; take into consid
eration! the fact that the state uni
versity is not the property of Lane
county nor the agricultural college
of Henton county. These institu
tions belong to the people of Ore
gon and their location 1 in any par
ticular county should never be a
matter of discussion, their value
to the state at large being the
only consideration that should ever
be put up to the taxpayers. They
are worthy of public support or
they should not receive the ap
propriations necessary to maintain
them. To call into question the
verdict of the-people of Lane and
Denton counties at the polls in any
election, whether on candidates for
office or questions of publie pol

temptible. It hr equivalent to say

A WICKED PEOPLE
Russia Is in a bad way, but it ia
wallowing in Us iniquity. It is
reaching its slimy hands to Ameri
ca and trying to take over the
property of the Russian Orthodox
church. . There is going to be a
great fight, and it is one in which
the public should take keen Inter
est. Archbishop John Kedrovsky
is an American citizen, and he has
been placed in charge of all the
churches by the soviet government.
The American churches have re
fused to obey the order from
red Russia and say they will be
independent henceforth. Russia
threatens to send two red bishops,
four red archbishops and forty
red priests. This will displace
loyal men now here. . The three
American. bishops and all but 30
of the 300 priests, are loyal to
America and will resist Russian
red influence. They may need a
lot of help.
PIXCHOT AXD COAL
Governor Pinchot evidently be
lieves that he walked into what
his friends claim was a trap, in
the coal situation. He settled the
coal strike all right enough, lie
certainly did that. But he settled
it by raising the price of coal. ,
Governor Pinchot now proposes
a convention of governors to lower
the, price of coal. He hoisted it,
but he wants help to pull it down.
THE PRICE OP GASOLINE
The governor of South Dakota
is at it again. He is trying to re
duce the price of gasoline. This
time he has made a cut of one
cent. That is something like It.
The other time he made a straight
cut of six cents a gallon, which
was so unfair it could not be sus
tained. If he stays level-headed
be can do a world of good.
Strength to his purpose. -
A NEW ISSUE
A new issue has grown up in
the state of Washington. Several
companies there want to sell hydro
electric power, but cannot under
the law. Until the law is changed
the people will have to pay what
is demanded or do without elec
tricity. And yet we were only
told last week that Washington
was a model state and that Oregon
was taking its last step to ruin.
THE VIGILANTES
Word comes from Washington
that after several month's of quiet
effort a new society has been
formed called the Vigilantees. It
has a lot of high sounding princi
ples, but its object Is to fight the
K. K. K. We fail to find any ob
jection to the K. K. K. that fails to
lodge against the Vigilantees.
They will not get anywhere.
TAX REDUCTION
Secretary Mellon is out with a
demand for tax reduction, and he
is backed by the president, who
is saturated with New England
thrift. He expects something to
be done. America must live not
only within its income, but in a
manner to enable it to pay ! its
debts. We are expecting much
from this effort. Mellon never
goes off half-cocked. s I '
THE APOLLO CLUB
Certainly Salem has every reas
on to be proud of its Apollo club.
The concert was splendid, but the
finest part of it is that we have
such an Institution here at home.
Salem needs this. It is one of
our splendid assets, and we trust
it will continue in popular favor.
Our old friend, the straw vote,
got its worst plunk in the income
tax election. Straw votes were
taken everywhere and the vote
was 100 to 1 against it.

"That'll be splendid." Mr. Cos

How many are going?"
"Just as many as wish." Dicky
declared . generously. "That boat
of mine is like one of those old
telescopes they used to pack cloth
ing in there's always room for
someone extra."
"Well, let's see." Mr. Cosgrove
was radiantly contemplative. His
delight in the proposed expedition
was patent to everyone. "You
and Mrs. Graham, Miss Dean,
that's three. How about you.

"Do you think you could stand
such a trip?" the artist asked the
question of Lillian, in lieu of an
answer.
She Bhook her head.
"I'm afraid not, Robert, but
that need not "
"Count me out," Robert said
decisively, and Pa Cosgrove turn

"How about it. Mother?" he
asked. "Will you go fishing with
us?" ' '
"I think I'll manage, to struggle
along tonight without, going," she
rejoined a bit tartly.
"Then that makes six of us,"
her husband went on seemingly
undismayed, "for the twins and
me will sure be on the job. Now
remember, you want to put on
something oldand warm, woolen
stockings and sneakers, and take
a sweater apiece along, for It gets
mighty cool down there on those
stones toward morning."
"Are you permitted to fish
from the dam at night?" Lillian
asked. "I thought "
Mr. Cosgrove put his finger to
his lips and drew down his left
eyelid in a prodigious wink.
"Hs-sh!" he said. "Don't ask
any questions, then you won't
know anything if any inquisitive
person should ask you anything
But don't any of you worry. I'll
take all the responsibility." f!
"I shall have to go somewhere
and buy some sneakers."" Tteds
Dean said, calmly Ignoring the
fact that I, because she had ruin
ed mine, would have the same er
rand. "Who's going to volunteer
to chauff me to the nearest shoe
store, and tell me where it is?" '
, "Why, Madge Jias " Dicky be
gan with usual "masculine blind
ness, but I happened to be sitting
near enough to him enable me to
plant a wifely kick upon his ankle,
and with a wince he dropped the
dangerous subject. I knew that
for him to blurt out as I feared
he would that I had a pair of
sneakers too large for me in my
trunk which she could have, would
pitch so much fat into the fire
that the ensuing blaze might not
be subduable.
" "Why can't you run Bess over
to Phoenicia, Dicky?" " I asked
sweetly. "There's a shoe store
there. And you can get me a
pair while you're about it. I'll
give you the size before you go."
t "Delighted, I'm sure," Dicky
said perfunctorily. But I caught
a vindictive glance out of the cor
ner of his eye. and knew that he
was anything but pleased with his
assignment.
Dicky's Story. s
: I wondered if I had hit upon an
infallible recipe for t preventing
Dicky from philandering with at
tractive girls. Was it only nec
essary for me to urge his attention
to any woman whom I subtly .dis
liked or . feared, in order to have
him find her society irksome?

Tro years ago Salem was using
a sixth of all the cans used in the
Pacific northwest iu canning fruit.
A year ago Salem was using more
than a - fourth. The proportion
has probably grown in Salem's
favor this year; if not, it will In
the years to follow.
If you do not think the Salem
Slogan work is worth while, and
getting actual and large results,
stick a few pegs there.

With Salem district brains and
Salem district soil and sunshine,
this city is going to raise enough
strawberries to furnish the filling
for strawberry shortcake to go
clear around the earth.
: '
fSome day, we will have to have,
a city of 100, 00Q people, to fur
nish the necessary hullers for our
strawberries; and it will take the
hull lot of them who can be spared
ror that work.
V
Salem is using more cans for
putting up fruit than the . whole
Pacific northwest used eight
years ago. Some expansion. And
still only started.
A Salem' concern is getting
ready to pack and ship 2,000,000
strawberry plants, and the. same
number of asparagus plants. And
this is only a fair beginning. Big
developments are, ahead in that
line here.
Oregon strawberry plants will
make vines that will last a year
or two years longer in the Cali
fornia strawberry districts. That
means dollars saved; millions of
dollars. It Will bring the business
here; with runners.

Both the tile and rug are at the

the tile feel colder? It is because
the rug takes up heat from your
feet more slowly and therefore
does not seem so cold. Objects
that feel colder at room temper

which is unsurpassed anywhere. ( . "

A schoolboy at lunch time en
tered a grocery store and said to
the clerk. "Take this order: 10
pounds of sugar at 6 cents, 11
pounds of , coffee at 25 cents. 8
pounds of tea at 30 cents. Add
that up. How "much is it?",
Clerk: "$5.75." -1
"Are you a-ure?: asked the boy.
- "Of course I'm sure:" '
"Thank you very much. That's
my arithmetic 'lesson for tomor
row: -
to him, in a strange voice, "The
baby! She has a terrible attack of
the croup. I can't do anything.
Oh! Run get Dr. Morton, quick.
quick!" Andy's father had been a
city physician, before his health
broke down.
-Allen started running. The road
was so long, so roundabout. Into
his mind flashed a picture of the
terrible trestle. If he could cross
it no train was due for a long
time but If he once looked down
he would be ill and may be lose his
balance" j . -
' He darted back into th lime
f6r a clean handkerchief.- Then he
ran .down to the trestle, never
looking down, and stopped to tie
the handkerchief across his eye;.
Down on his hands and knees he
got and over he went, feeling his
way carefully.
Andy happened that way jusf as
Allen got over. It was a funny
sight to see the blindfolded boy or
his hands and knees, but And
didn't think, it funny when U
message was delivered.
