' : ' , . Second, at least a cent a pound must be provided for ex ploiting the market; in big city after big city, with advertising and personal appeals and demonstrations;: This may, be reduced later to a half a cent a pound," and perhaps to a quarter of a cent a pound; but it must continue, throughout the yearseven to the next and following generations.' Third, facilities must be provided for freezing the berries. They must be, sent in refrigerator cars.They must reach the 4oa)a i 4k lAe4 ' TkAOOlMia AAttilltintt i.:.- 'V fi .On what facts does Mr. Ilaynes base his conclusions T There is a pie baker in a big1 eastern1 city, who uses about 12 cars a year of loganberries; put thein into, pies with ' about 25 per cent of Evergreen or other blackberries running to fifty-fifty of loganberries and blackberries. "He has built up a market for pies that takes at least-12 cars a year of logan berries ; frozen loganberries ; ; 40,000 pounds to the car. His trade demands loganberry pies to that extent. Mr. Ilaynes says there are 50 big cities in ; the United States that , will average that many cars of loganberries; ; wltha; development such as the IiaViKi mx-mAs) Woo mala t !" Awn ftv" . That" wrmlrt mnlrA fkOO cars; it would make 24,000,000 pounds of loganberries. : More loganberries than we now produce, for it is estimated that we gather or, could, gather from our present acreage only about 8000 tons, or 16,000,000 pounds. And there will always be some loganberries canned, some dried, some sold fresh, some going into the jelly and jam and ' juice ; and other trades. So there is the suggested solution, and, as said above, it sounds easy ; w- . ;l ' 'ir:'. t---H.;; , , But it will not be easy, unless, there can be thorough organi zation of the growers, and close and continued cooperation Mr; Ilaynes made the statement yesterday that, his advice to any grower who would not join an organization of growers,' was to go home and pull up, his loganberry vines. - t ' . s ; . . - ' . . .. ,- . .". 4 r. Mr. Ilaynes stated that he does not believe there can be a jrrcat extension of the market for dried loganberries, or for tanned loganberries, or tor loganberries put up in1 any, otner -ay.- ' - , ' - I . - This implies that there must be greater cold storage facili ties provided in Salem.., If private capital cannot be enlisted to provide these, the public would be justified in making the proirision, for there are various other fruit and vegetable crops needing such provisions in order to make certain of profitable marketing ; . in order to prevent great possible waste. " Mr. Ilaynes stated that it is his belief that the time will soon come when loganberries and other fruits will be sold in the big cities in their frozen state direct to the household trade. It will cost no more, he said, than under present methods, i And fruits will thus be delivered in. practically; the same condition astwhen leaving the trees and vines. ' - --, : Mr. Ilaynes did not undertake, his investigation .with any selfish motive; excepting that he is in the baking business in the cities of western Oregon in Salem and Portland and other cities ; and he is a loyal Oregonian and wfints to see our people prosper. i.v;-'. -''U--- r--A-ri'-:S'':" He had a vision of getting the people of this country to eating loganberry pies. He thinks loganberry pies are good. He knows they are good, when properly made, from fresh or frozen fruit.. So he was willing to take a lot of his own time and spend some of his own money in an attempt to prove his theorj' ?:f ... - ;A- ;And, while he met a lot of discouragements, he did not lose his vision. He believes he has the solution. He believes the pie trade will take all of our loganberries, and pay remunerative TJriceS for our berries, if we will en at th task of ahnwincr that. trade how good they are, and of delivering them in a shape that will make -the campaign practicable. ' , , . t . And now it is again back to the growers They can organ jze and sell their'Ioganberries and keep the industry going and growing .- ' - i- : i r' : . Or they can sit tight and let their berries rot on 'the vines, or pull up the vines, and; leave all this for a future time; fcfr the loganberryindusiry will not die. It may get pretty sick in spots. .But .it .will eventually be again one of our greatest industries--because the loganberry itself is right. It is one of the world's greatest bush fruits.- ' N VimY PAXGKIIOUS Third decrees have been known for their cruelty since the time, of the Inquisition.

The spirit of making others happy is mi H ta land. At t!;!s l:-r of the kind of permanent service we are giving? Houses and lands, money and jewels, may be of tem porary endurance. , Good health. a trained mind, and a sound, moral Inheritance are treasures stored where moth can not enter nor rust destroy. The best Christ mas gift any community can -give its children is an efficinet school, one which assures in to far as it is humanly possible the spiritual and intellectual training that pre pares them for the "good life." School directors ' and , parents. why not, when you go to a Chris tian program at your school house; look about you carefully, see that the school building is sanitary comfortable and convenient for 'its purpose .uesas must, ne occupiea five hoars a day by school chil dren; eyes must be used day after day; sanitary conveniences should be adequate. If these things are not satisfactory the children need a new school building for a Christmas present. The Christmas vacation is a good time to make necessary repairs, tQ remodel un suitable buildings, or to arouse sentiment for a new one. ox GrroxG Christmas ' time opens the heart -and makes the selfish libe ral. It Is a time that old money bags , are supposed to loosen up and ? make large contributions. There is another side of the ques tion that has always made itself apparent to us, and that Is that those who can afford to give are urged and tempted to give more than they can afford, lit is a' terri ble thing to be In a' crowd where a good cause is being pushed and not be able to travel with, the peo ple of the town. It takes a brave man. to give a dime where his neighbor gives a dollar, and yet if a man connot afford to give more than a dime he ought not to do so. The real spirit of giving Is to give what we can without sacrifice sum- ficient to Injure, the care for our family or our duty to our home. Those who have should give liber ally, but those who do not should give what they can, conscious that they have done the best that they conld. ,We have known people to stay away from a meeting in which they were .vitally Interested be cause their circumstances did not warrant their giving largely. THE MEELOX i PROPOSITION' Secretary Mellon's plan for re ducing -r government expenses is now before the public and certain ly the demand Is so imperative that congress will give heed to it. We must reduce expenses from top to bottom. In the last ten years we have gone wild on spend ing money, we have reached the point now when the taxpayers must ; be the first consideration, and practically every dollar spent in government,' from top to bot tom, comes from , the people at large. We have a wild idea that indirect taxes: are paid by firms and Individuals. This is so in the first instance, but In every In stance the taxes are passed on to the people.; There Is no such thing as the people assuming, taxes on property. "-: - . Secretary Mellon has worked hard and has centered his great ability on one idea of tax reduc tion in lines that are fair. ; No taxes are popular, and Secretary Mellon has selected the most un popular ones for abolishment and the lesser ones for revision. ; r ' .. MAXY SEE rs ; It is pointed out that 500,000 tourists visited Oregon . the past year. .There Is, no guess about this; It is a matter of registra tion, j Oregon was discovered by the tourists recently,' "and each year sees a big increase. When one comes he goes back home and gives such glowing accounts that others want to co-me. ' ' The coming year will see nearly a million. The country Is more prosperous than , usual and the auto travelers . are .greatly in creasing, t Oregon's good roads are famous, and they f will - con tinue to attract more and more. The scenery of., the state is un usual. We already, are a. tourist state, but only a small part of the people who travel now come here. More of them will come every year, because the scenery is so wonderful , and the climate so splendid. ' , . y ; m i- -.

That is more than we can assimi late, but we should be glad there Is no more of them. A genius Is not gcod for the community. He Is smart, but he - exaggerates; his own acquisitions and accentuates his unconventionalities. The bal ahce of the world is composed of ordinary people, who live ordin ary lives in the ordinary way, They conform to the rules of soci ety, obey the laws of the country and make' the world better by their presence. We are" glad that the ' preponderance is' so largely against the genius. We may need these geniuses in the scheme of life, but we certainly cannot get along without the common people. SMALL. BUSIXESS About the smallest business we have heard of a man indulging in was the collection of fleas. 7 One man had 10.000. ' But it was not so bad after all. This man has turned his collec tion over to the scientific world to aid in ferreting disease. Jt may be that after all the peculiar collection may result In a bene faction, and the man, instead iof being a mild lunatic, may figure in history as the forerunner of great discoveries. Despise - not the day of small things. Stealing a corpse ashes at the funeral reveals to the world that Japan has socialists.

HOSPITAL ; ; 'Across , Ca'pt. . Hastings'! ! "fke'e swept the look of amazed defer ence which the, sight of Lillian's badge denoting' her rank in the secret diplomatic' service alwavs brings to the initiatedi There fol lowed instantly another look, that of relief, which told me how much the threat of Smith to communi cate with Y higher troop off leer at Kingston had affected the youth. - V: "If you knw what's sood for you. Smith," he" called out cava t terly 'you'll look at this befor you 'start anything." t . X noticed the loungers eye each other' In amazement that any one should dare to treat the great man of the 'region with anything else but awd respect. But their as tonishment must' have been deep ened when Smith stalked toward the car, craned his neck around Hastings, and looked at the badge. I was. watching him closely, and I saw that he not only recognized its meaning, but that It carried as especially alarming message to him. He gazed up at me with eyes like those of an animal which, sees some unexpected danger "Where did what" he stam mered. With a sudden impulse--Indeed. It was as If I were Impell ed by something outside myself f leaned across Capt. -Hastings, speaking slowly, incisively: "Never mind where I obtained this. - Simply : remember that 1 have it. and that I never forget faces or voices." 1 sent the car forward as I spoke th last word, but not too soon to see the pasty pallor which had replaced his high flush. I knew that Capt. Hastings was looking at me, curiously, although I did not turn my eyes toward him. And we had gone two miles down the road before he zpeke. . 'Air Is Discovered" v "I wonder If you would be will ing to tell me what you meant by that last speech to Smith?' sh asked a bit differently. 1 "Sorry." : I " returned dubiously, "but as I, don't really know what I meant myself, I .couldn't. It Just occurred to me that ho ra altogether too Interested In fasten ing this attack bu ns, and the fan tastic notion came to me that : he might ; have had something to do with it himself. And oh, well, you know the old ruse of sending the telegram with 'All Is discov ered, fly at once, to a dozen . men selected at random, don't you t" "And having tnree of them skip to parts unknown upon the receipt of the wire!" he answered with a laugh in his voice. But I'm afraid you are on the wrong track in this case it you think he had anything to ,do with .this .attack. He's always been especially chum my with t v te I rooper. done us many favors, and I know that tnr commander . regards ' ihlm very highly. There, could bo no possi-. bl motfvV.'M tiling his actions tr.,t.vt" . t i ' i : . :'3 " were aeitation at your little parting speech probably means that theres an unsavory secret In his life somewhere, but I can't believe that he had anything to do with this attack on Hen! - Why, Hen was one : of his favorites among the boys!- What the Colonel Asked "No doubt you're right," I ans- wered, with almost complete sin cerity. "Which way do I turn at the next corner?" "To the left. How is he. dor- tor?" 'Still ulive," The physician voice startled me. I had nqt realized until then that he was In the car.' : My cursory glance had mistaken him for one of the wounded boy's comrades. ' "But don't slacken your pace If you can help it ; "I can increase it if you think best," I returned. "The road is clear In the moonlight, and there's no traffic. " "No, this speed is safer," the physician decided, and no one spoke again until we drew up be fore the hosnital in Kingston. I paid a mental tribute to fhe efficiency of young Hastings when I saw how completely' he had ar ranged by telephone for the recep tion of the wounded boy, and the presence of his superior officer. He must hare ssen to these things before ve came back with Dr. Moss, for I had - seen his very movement, almost heard his every word since. , And when the young trooper had been .turned over to the surgeons in waiting and rushed to the operating table, young Has tings came to the reception, room where I sat waiting with Mr. Cos- grove, accompanied by a soldierly looking man of middle-age, whom he introduced as Col. Travers1. I scrutinized this man furtive ly, but closely as he entered. I could not believe that the man Smith had spoken the truth when he claimed (any influence ove this splendid specimen of military American, and the result of " my scrutiny only strengthened "my opinion. That he had , been the guest of the other man. in some Cap'n Zyb Before you can become any kipd of a magician, you must know a simple pass or two in palming so that you caav conceal and get rid of small objects in the hand, such HSiBx small hall or a coin. ,APractice first, with a quarter.
