THE WORLD'S BEST
.The Slogan editor has been saying for a long time that the
Salem district can grow and does grow the best celery in the
world. Here are some proofs t Eugene celery in 1921 took
second prize at the national celery contest; and Prof. Bouquet
of the Oregon Agricultural College said the Oregon exhibitors
gairied a greater victory than the taking of the prize in that
contest. ' Troutdale celery took first prize in 1922 at the national
contest at Indianapolis-and it was taken by a man who was a
celery grower before coming to Oregon in the famous Kalama
zoo, Michigan, district. , ,
The Labish Meadows district, just north of Salem, produces
ns good celery as that 3wn at Eugene or Troutdale
A Produces the best in the world.
; ; The Labish Meadows celery, 200 car loads of it, shipped
last year to points outside of Oregon, brought $1 a crate above
the price of the famous California celery. That means $160 to
$180 a car above the market price for the California product.
- Do you realize what else that means t It means the develop
ment here of- a gigantic celery industry. Our district will ship
out at least 250 cars this year. The acreage will grow every
year.' : It may gd tip to 4000 to 5000 cars annually, and in a few
years.'; It is bound o become such a gigantic industry in good
time, because of the imniense money value; of quality. It is
enough to make up the difference between profit and loss, or
between small profits and large gains. !
- ; ;The world -is -the. markets Celery fresh from our fields
now goes in ear lots as far as Birmingham, Alabama. , It will go
much farther.- For dehydrated celery there is'nd liinit'in mar:
kets under the shining sun. , . 1 -1", .
";The pioneering has been done. The proofs are at hand.
Our growers can produce celery andmake it a profitable crop
onwide areas-; ;;: -Cj-... ' -
. . ' ' But, what is more important, fchey can 'produce celery of
the best quality grown in the United States ; which means the
best in the world--and they are doing ust this. - (
1 . For the Salem district, this is another case of taking the
line of least resistance; of getting abore competition; of pro
ducing the things ire can produce better than any other. district,
or, at ;a lower cost,' or at a greater profit of doing the things at
whicii we excel. . '. '; ' ' 'i'l ".' L'":'" . .
rThere bas been a lot of progress in the celery industry here
in fifteen years; in two years. (What was a dream . abort .time
ago has partly come true? is' a clear vision now; a, certainty of.
some time In the future, and perhaps not far distant future. .
; There is no mystery about the celery industry bere. What
one man has done, or what a few men have accomplished, can
be duplicated r with equal industry and . intelligent methods : by
others But f her is a magic in the- combination, of' sbil and
sunshine and showergthat make possible the growing of the
highest quality product the world can show in this field. '

A most unusual man died when
Lenine, the Russian leader,-passed
on No ordinary manw could
do what he did, and it was largely
on his nerve. He was smart, very
smart. He was an agitator for
many years, but when the oppor
tunity came to be a leader, he was
quick to selte it. He never knew
what It was to be in the major
ity, . but he never . hesitated . to
make his minority act as a ma
jority. '. . ' '. :
adenine was a natural leader of
men. He understood, the weak
nesses ot his fellow men as few
men do. He played upon the foi

Imagination for all it was worth

the Imagination. It will not do
to call him a mere grafter, he
readily admitted It; it will not do

call him dishonest, he never pre

A FOOLISH CONTEST
The last few years there has
been many contests of various
kinds and degrees, but about as
foolish a one as we have known
was pulled off at Council Bluffs,
Iowa. Sixty-four members of a
Sunday school read in relays of
fifteen minutes and read the New
Testament through In 17 hours.
The people rf Council 7 Bluffs
were so Interested by this strange
procedure that as news . of it
spread the crowa grew. The read
ing, which began, in a small room,
later was moved 'to the church
basement and finally to the audi
torium, where all seats were occu
pied during the reading of Revel
tlon. QUIZZING BOK
It is sometimes hard for, us to
understand the sentiment in the
United States senate. Just now it
is pouncing on Edward Bok. Cer
tainly it is not contended that he
has not had advertising enough.
Certainly it is not contended that
he is not acting within his rights
as an American cltlxen. Jest what
Is back of the inquiry Is hard to
see. . It may be persecution, It may
be prosecution and it may be just
common everyday foolishness.
The man who can do what Boa
has done and do it at his owi ex
pense certainly is entitled tar-a
sqnare deal, and the people will
give it to him whether the lead
ers do or not
A LABOR MAN PREMIER
Englanl has a labor cabinet and
some concern is felt abont it.
There need not be any concern.
Laboring men are just as patriot
ic as any kind of men in the world.
True, they have not had the exper
ience In government, but there is
such a thing as being over-experienced.
We look for this cabinet
to be fair and 'as conservative as
the occasion demands. There is
no cause for alarm whatever.
An anti-prohibition party calls
itself "Facing the Facts." If the
members will just do this It would
end the opposition.
The more yon study mankind,
the greater your wonder that so
few go to the poorhouse. .

CHAPTER NO. 83
WHY IS DICKY SO ANXIOUS TO
GET HOME?
"Good-bye, good-luck, and
mind your step!"
I found myself mentally repeat
ing Lillian's farewell words to
Bess Dean, even as I saw the girl's
white heat of rage as she realized
how she had been tricked, real
ized also that she must show no
hint of anger because of the assis
tant principal of her school; now
advancing swiftly toward her with
pleasant surprised face and eager
hand outstretched.
"Get away, quick!" Lillian said
in a low, tense voice, buM did not
need her command.
I set the engine running even as
Miss Edwards reached Bess Dean's
sidi, waved my hand to my former
colleague in cordial response she.
made me, and in another minute
we were speeding , from the sta
tion. I did not slacken my paee
until I was a mile away. Then I
abruptly stopped the car in the
shade, of an Immense elm, and
turned to Lilian.
"Do you mean to tll me," j be-
an, "that you really don t know
Miss Edwards?"- : . , ,
"Never saw her ht- fcy Hfe,'1 Lil
lian responded, "but it worked :
oh, old girl how it worked! And
it wasn't anything to deduce.' Yon
and I were practically certain that
Bess Dean wired a friend to make
that long-distance call which pur
ported to come from 1 Miss Ed
wards summoning her to her
school,, although she had origin
ally planned to stay, several -days;
longer. Therefore, instead of be
ing at the school, it was highly
probable that 31183 Edwards was
still on her vacation somewhere.
Why Lillian Came.
'Those women at the station,"
Lillian went on, "were teachers
of a fashionable school for girls
you never can mistake the type
and there was no one else in Bight.
Remember, I was watching Bess
Dean, while you ' couldn't see her,
and' I noticed the Btart she gave
at the sight ot the women. The
followed her absurd panic-stricken
demand to be driven away from
the station. There was nothing
to it." 1
"Oh, of course not!" I scoffed,
looking at her admirlnglyT "But;
don't you. think you were juu a
little bit" . '-!.-
"Hard on her?" Lillian firfished
my sentence, her voice fairly ooxr
ing the scorn she patiently felt
for my soft-heartedness. "I
knew you'd emit something like
that. 1 could see that very plain
ly on the way down, when you
were laughing at her nonsense
about that other driver. You'd
forgive Be-elsebub himself,-T be
lieve. That's one reason why 1
came with you, old dear. That
girl had It all set to make you as
uncomfortable as she possibly
could, but she didn't get away
with anything, did she? And I
think she. has a bee in her bon
net that'll keep her busy with a
fly-swatter for some period of
time. She'll forget the Bcare
about Miss Edwards- for I didn't
give her away In .that quarter
but she; won't forget In a minute
or two, or maybe three that . 1
tagged . her correctly as a vamp
that failed." ' -
DIcky: Asks a Question.
Lillian drew a sharp, quick
breath, I a discreet, stealthy one.
I knew that she had not finished,
and was anxious to hear the rest
of her strictures.
"At that I wouldn't have been
quite so vicious," she resumed, "If
it hadn't been for Ted.- Cosgrove.
That lad's too good and fine to
go through the suffering I saw
written on his face today. Bess
Dean ought to be pilloried, a girl
with her attractions and brains
and experience to play with"' the
affections of a lad like that' Nay,
nay, little one I like ' not your
friend; Miss Dean. I do not re
gret in the least the shock 'of the
advice I gave her, and. If I'm not
mistaken, she'll, be good for quite
a spell when she's in your vicin'
ity-'Conie on, let's jog back.
We've got 'some shopping; to do In

THE TROUBLES OF ROBERT
AND ELIZABETH ANN
PART VI.
When the first was selected they
had in mind great permanence.
It was to meet air their future
needs, .children and old age. The
surroundings must be just right,
attractive homes,' intelligent neigh
bors, etc. This, is where their zeal
led them: They found themselves
in the suburb composed of estab
lished families, older than them
selves, with much larger incomes.
From? the outseMhey 'were tn a
false position; as Robert soon real
ized. Ten dollars were less to the
men of these families than one
dollar was to him. '. They could not
keep the pace, and they could not
remain and fall behind. Elizabeth
Ann Immediately,, changed the
standard of her requirements. She
found a house of three rooms and
bath, for which they were to pay
twenty-five per month until the
deed was given. The' breakfast
nook, in the new house, would
meet their dally needs, while the
living room could be used for oc
casional guests. The guest cham
ber too was dispensed with. For
their equity In the former home
they were to receive four hundred
dollars, with a bonus of two hun
dred dollars if they gave posses
sion at once. Their care of the
yard 'during their occupancy had
made- the home more attractive
and therefore, more desirable. To
this, amount they added two hun
dred dollars from the sale of the
furniture of the two extra rooms.
This amount paid all their Indebt
edness excet one hundred dollars.
Within' a week they were in a new
home, with a new environment
1 This suburb was composed in
the main of young college men,
with small salaries, who could not
indulge in luxuries. They were
proud of their vegetable garden,
which they cared for themselves.
There were no nurse maids and
few cars. In short, it was an ideal
locality for a family In their cir
cumstances. .
They budgeted anew and In
earnest.- There was to be no jug
gling with this budget. Elizabeth
Ann said, "If there Is not money
to pay for mushrooms we can eat
beans; they are quite as nourish
ing and much cheaper. The baby
showed his appreciation of this
plan by putting a bean up his nose
thus changing the subject. Eliza
beth Ann also said: "Robert, if
there is hot money in the clothing
list for your slippers you will have
to wear your moccasins, and you,
son, can go with bare feet. Yours
are pretty enough for, anyone to
see." RoWrt considered this un
just discrimination.
A recent Increase of fifteen dol
lars per month brought their sal
ary to one hundred and sixty-five
dollars, which they apportioned as
follows: Overhead; which included
Tent. light, water. fuel and tele
phone, forty - dollars; clothing,
twenty dollars; doctor and dentist.
eight dollars;.' benevolence, eight
dollars; insurance, , ten dollars;
higher life, ten dollars; guests,
six dollars; .Incidentals and main
tenance, ten dollars pin money,
eicht dollars: debts, fifteen dol
lars: savings, thirty, dollars, i
As soon aft their debts were paid
they intended adding this amount
Boys arfdGirls Statesman
Biggest Little raper nl the World
to their savings. Robert considers
himself one of the fortunate of
earth.
The habit af saving without nig
gardltness ' is " practiced by the
whole family. Even the bahy has
shown his appreciation of this sys
tem of accumulation. 'He has eight
more teeth than when be came and
several more, hairs... When Robert
kisses his wife and babf goodbye
in the morning he feels himself tc
millionaire leaving 'his' treasures
for a few hours. The cynical may
say,)that wife and baby are not
negotiable .assets. True, they are
not; neither Is the moon in the
summer skies, nor-the clouds, nor
the song of the stream in the for
est, nor the beauty of the rising
sun. nor the benediction of Its set
ting, nor friendship, nor love. The
most precious things In life are
not negotiable.-
Goodbye little family on the
doorstep. May you keep out of
debt and be happy.
