H. II. Ilaynes reported his findings yesterday noon to the
members of the Salem Chamber of Commerce and their guests-
ia that th nil trade of the United States
'will buy all the loganberries we now produce, at prices that
will net the growers reasonably remunerative prices
And that soundds good; sounds. easy. .

market may be. had,! prefaced his conclusions with a lot of con
ditions precedent," substantially as follows : '
First, there must be organisation of at least 70 per cent
of -the growers? thorough organization, that will hold water;
that -will go clear down the line. ' : ' , .
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

why not, when you go to a Chris

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- -.
A WltOXG IDEA
You ' have, heard, a good dial
abont giving bouquets to the Uv-.
ing. and -lamenting that it Is not
clone, r There ' Is a case of ' this in
Portland Just now,' 'A, woman doc
tor who was ; prominent ; .a , .few
years ago- fell into poverty and
died In the poor house. She is go
ing to be burled ' handsomely.' ' It
would have been a grea( deal bet
ter If. the .flowers .had. been.; given
to her while living. It would be
better for her to Ho in the pol-
i-r's ffcIJ frrsver ' tiah to T vc
NOT MAXY GKXIUSES
Thank goodness there 'are only
200 geniuses in the world today.
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.

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

"And having tnree of them skip
to parts unknown upon the receipt

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.

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

which some of our Christmas i z : i
ages arrive is convincing ir. :
that not only our friends, t ,t
even our relatives. And maybe vj,
ourselves, cannot tie a deceit
knot.
If you want to be sure wl a
you mail a package that it v III
arrive safely at its destination In e
fairly respectable stste, pay hcci
to the knots. One kind that yea;
may be sure will never give w;y
