It lias persisted to the limit! of the available -suitable nursery stock for; the past three or four years, and it J will so continue for the coming planting season ' : I ? And it should. It is a boom that will justify itself. All the filberts produced commercially in the United States are grown in the Willamette valley, except Ithose in Clarke county, "Washington, which is practically .a continuation of this valley I . i' Grown in what The Statesman is pleased to call the Salem district. The new planting hi this country1 are all in this district. S ! ' . The "expert in this line from the United States Department Y&griculture, visiting Salem last year, said wc have the most promising filbert groves here to be found in the country. Our filbert growers have been learning by experience and experimenting. Pollination is the big thing in filbert grow ing. This1 matter has resolved itself down to about the fol lowing:' j j : - f :;i ! v Plant i Barcelona filberts, with enough DuChilly trees to pollen ize them, with enough Clackamas or Dayidiana (or Davi ana) to pollenize the DuChillys. There are some newer pollen izers that will no doubt be heard from in the future in the in dustry; when enough trees shall have been produced to make them generally available. AH of the articles on the Slogan pages are worth reading; should be read and studied by those expecting to plant filberts. I The pioneers of the industry have blazed the way; have borne the1 brunt of expensive and time-killing experimentation The new grower has the benefits of this work1 of the pioneers. : : . ; V':- f " ' ' ' : H George A. Dorris of Springfield, who maybe appropriately called the father of the filbert industry in this country, hi an article a year ago, said; .'I. ! ! , "Filbert culture in Oregon has made such progress that it is no longer necessary to guess at what yields will be. The block of twenty-five Barcelonas I planted twenty-one years ago, some of them replants of probably not more than eight to ten years of age, has this year brought the average yield for three years to between, thirty-four and thirty-five ; hundred pounds per acre. Eleven year old trees, this year yielded at the rateof about two thousand pounds per acre. With such yields, which are not exeessive and can be easily counted ou,there need be no doubt as to the profitableness of the industry.'' ; . Read the above paragraph over a second , time. Then you will not dispute the prediction that the filbert industry will be one of the most important of all our industries here in the Salem district. The filbert boom will and should persist. The growing of filberts and walnuts in the Salem district isibound to bring up land values. For the purpose of culti vating these nut trees, hundreds of thousands of acres of our land is worth ten to twenty times the present selling prices potentially worth such great advances in price. t? If you live in some other district, or some other state or ckmtryt you can afford to give this matter consideration. . One thing more: The filbert tree! never grows old.;: It re news itself every year, like the walnut tree. Filbert and walnut trees put out now, of the right varieties, with proper pollen irs,in the Salem district, will grow more fruitful and more valuable throughout all the years of your life,' and the lives of Jur children and , children's children,- down through the uu , winding years of the future. I!;:-.. I--' 'V..1: if; A recent issue of ,,the American: Economist- contains a reprint of a picture of "The Millionth Loaf." This was the llijllionth loaf of. free trade bread distributed; through its free bread fund by the New York World in 18114, as a direct result 9& the election of (Jroyer Cleveland and his free trade Congress, which the; World advocated. The same thing: happened in the first two years of Wilson's administration, when there were again long bread lines in New York and other cities throughout the country. The World also advocated Wilson's election. And 4Hat newspaper is again advocating the election of la free trade President and a free trade Congress. And should that news paper have its present wish, the same thing would be sure to happen long bread lines would again form.) But the World will not have its wish this time. Next Tuesday's election will give us a protectionist President and Congress, and there will be no bread lines. Twice in such a length of time is enough. We will have a period of the greatest growth and prosperity in the history of the country - in the history of the world. AX OLD FRIEND GOXK vJWb can recall in our youth the great shock it was to learn that Lydia M. Pinkham bad been dead for many years. She had such! a large reputation and her picture wis so prominent that; we always thought she must be one of the lekding women of the nation. We have just had another shock and - that is to learn that Latira Jean Libbey has Just jdied,t AVe had always supposed that she was a contemporary of Lydia Pinkham, and in some way w had associ ated the two names together, pos sibly because they were both for women one to cure one kind of trouble, and the other anoiher kind. A fair sample of Iaura Jean's amorousness and versatility is' found In the following extract from "Lore's Young Dream." .'Again i he? caught her in' his arms. ;,-i 'I have told yon so over and over again, darling, have I not?" h murmured, caressing the beau- "Surely no man in the whole wide world is as happy as I, for I have won all that makes lire worth .the living the love of the girl who is Queen of my heart. Can I say more sweet? If I were to try for ever to tell you how happy I am, I should not finish the story in long years to come. Yes, Irene, I am happy, happy; for ours is a marriage of true love; the uniting of hearts that heaven made for each other; the blending of two lives that never would have ex isted apart." j n I J ML&j Influenza f Pneumonia I j Keep strong.

Laura Jean wrote love dreams and amorous copy. She wrote for the languishing, languorous social buds whose heart throbs were in terrupted by tragedies very real to them but not quite so serious to those outside. In fact she was a specialist on what they call "calf love. Some call it "puppy love." Most young girls have had it, and it was at that stage in their career that they swear by Laura Jean Libbey. j , , j i . ' A RAILROAD CHANCE ; The Howell-Harkley - railroad labor bill was defeated at the last session of congress but was not killed. lt will come up again. In this connection it will be interest ing to notejthe analysis of Charles Donnell, president of the North ern Pacific, who compares it to the present board of nine. Mr. Donnelly also points out that his railroad haa observed 98 per cent of the findings of the cases where it was interested. 1 Mr. Donnelly points out that outside of the in creased cost of the new, plan with its 40 members, each with a sal ary of $p,000, and four secretaries at $4,000 each, estimated at $350,- 000 a year,! as against about $93, 000 for the present board,; the failure of the measure to give the board real authority to prevent strikes is cited as a chief argument against it. One section of the bill says: j v i' ." ' : Xothing in this act shall bo construed to require an Indi vidual employe or subordln- ate official to render labor, or service without" his consent, nor shall anything in this act be construed to make the quitting of his labor or ser vice by an employe or subor dinate official an Illegal act. The railroad officials construe this as an invitation to workers to disregard the board's orders by striking1, although the law requires them td "faithfully execute" the award, j This clause is properly held to be fraught with grave pub lic danger. Only nationally organized labor crafts may; make nominations for memberships on the proposed na tional adjustment boards. Hun dreds of employes, it" is pointed out. would be left without repre sentation, "'j. WEXT TO WORK A good many people have won dered why A. E. Kerns quit run ning for state treasurer as a pro gressive. It was given out that he wanted to" help La Follettef ' Af circular? which is before us at thia time indicates that he was also somewhat interested in the state treasurer. He declares that the irreducible school fund Is losing from three to five hundred thou sand dollars under ! the adminis tration of Tom Hay's bad loans. This is the wildesf. statement that has been made, and doubtless Kerns was released! for the ' pro pressive party because he makes statements wilder than anybody else. Such things ;are reacting. Tom Kay is too good a 'business man to make bad 'loans intention ally, and the losses j sustained by the school fund will be small in any event. . , .fr J 1 Listen! The sehool fund will lose! less than the difference be tween 4 2 per cent received on bonds and the 6 per cent the farm ers are now paying; Think this over. I f ECOXOMIC j QUACKS of It. A referendum was taken and upon that referendum the people will pass next Tuesday. It is a matter of the greatest possible-importance to Marion county to have a favorable yote on this. It means so much for us. It means so much for pur children and, after all, our first duty is to our children. 1 D.mS' CLAIMS Secretary Mellon Very properly denounces that he proposed eco nomic quacks for the elimination of our economic ills? These men are making specious 'statements based on wild theories unrecogniz ed by any1 economic law in the world. They promise much be cause they do not have to deliver anything. Another econoniic quack is the university profess arl who teaches his pupils specious but untrue doc trines. A good many colleges have tainted the studen :s in this branch of education with, heresy, but the students haven't been out In ths world very long until they learn for themselves thai their early teaching was wroiig.i This Is why these 'teachings do J not get any further than they !do. They don't last, when put under; the acid test of practical experience. MoitK ;oixt; FOR POLITICS It has leaked out! that there is a powerful secret organization at tempting to line up Candidates for congress and senators in favor of a change in the Volstead act. It is worthy of note, however, that not an Oregon republican candi date is given as sympathetic with the wet cause. fi I . yThere will be no modification of the (Volstead acti : 1"he next step will be to strengthen it. This can be done by 'better law enforcement and also by 'strengthening the law in its weaker places. Not only has prohibition conie to stay In America, but world prohibition Is before us. j; '-' COl'XTY il KALTII It is a fact that Marion county has an opportunity ;to attract at tention all over the 'United States because of the health campaign to be put on. Our- county court refused to take the ; responsibility of making an annual appropriation of $2400. The members did not believe the peoplfe 4-ere in favor Candidate Davis is described as very confident, buoyantly confid ent, In' fact, of his election. Just how much basis there is for the claim can be realized here when it is stated that Davis claims Ore gon, lie will do mighty well if he runs second here. "The chances are that he will run third. His general claims of election are just about as sensible as what he claims here. ; . Maggie and Jiggs : i Enjoy the Water Mere rain or 'sea water doesn't bother Maggie. Her real worry is just now over her latest victim in the person of "Rufe White" who will, if he can hold the pace, play Jiggs at the Gxand tonight for the Salem Rebekah lodge benefit. In practice "Rufe" has evaded every thing Maggie has had to- of fer but his friends point out that when he puts on his false stomach and is weighted down by excess' weight, he may be a fraction of an inch too slow and the show may end forthwith when Maggie connects with her 201 pound rolling pin. The Rebekah committee, are well satisfied with the advance sale' of tickets and wish the pub lic to know there are still some good reserved seats left with ev ery prospect good for a full house when, the curtain rises' at 8:l5 Thursday night. 1 r 1 1 '1 1 1 1 1 r p v i w m 1 1 RESPONSIBLE FOR ILL HEALTH piJLES or other rectal or colon J disorders may be responsible for your general ill health.

WILEY ACTUALLY WROTE Wlien He Was Federal Pure Food Commissioner By Harvey W. Wiley, M. D. : Although wholesome fats and oils should not in justice be excluded from human foods, I have always taken the ground that they should never - be permitted to masquerade under false fprms or names. Butter, for example, is an excellent and legi timate product, which is entitled to its own place in the market, and 1 should never have to meet the unfair competition of its so-called substi tutes. This would seem elementary. And yet the law expressly permits1 the manufacturers of .oleomargarine to imitate butter in odor and flavor. Fraud inevitably follows. And it, will follow while the present law exists. Moreover, the defrauders are assured, that, even when they are detected they can escape punishment by paying a small part of their profit. Witness the recent ; compounding of oleomargarine frauds, whereby the. treasurer ' was cheated out of more than a million of. revenue. : ', The law which forbids the artificial coloring of oleomargarine is all right, but that does not strike at the root of the evil. The frauds in oleo thrive chiefly because it smells and tastes like butter. This can be remedied easily: Under a heavy penalty, for bid the use of butter, milk or cream in any form in the manufacture of oleomargarine. Relief will never be had until such a law is passed. There fore, I ask the real dairyman, the man who feeds the' cow and milks and churns, to join me in putting an end forever to "oleomargarine" frauds by demanding a law that will prohibit the use of any; dairy product in any preparation of fat or oil intended for consumption in the place of butter. Every wholesome product should be equal before the law and have equal rights on the markets of the country Xiood Housekeeping. VOTER!
