TO REALTORS HERE , .. (Continue from pge If, , j : manifested itself in the city; and the development of ; a social ' con science was made. ; The changes in the civic improvement had to come slowly, and from outlying districts, he said. Because of the paved streets and other public im provements, property valuations are from five to six times higher than they were some 30 years ago. The speaker recounted some of the property transfers of that time which involved four or five thou sand dollars, but which today would command a much"greater figure. ' . i ' : : I I : -i "The flax industry will come to be jhe - leading industry of the Willamette, valley. The ' Salem linen mill is only the first unit of a great industry that is coming here." : ' ''i Mr. Kay recounted the struggle the early residents had in getting a hotel established here. The one which whs standing at that time was a "white elephant," and brought Salem in disrepute- among the traveling men. The early ho tel wa 3 a disgrace to the city. The early efforts of the Board of Trade ended in failure in getting money raised to erect a new one. The promoter, who had been se cured for the purpose of eecuring funds for a new hotel left the city in disgust. Finally a com pany of Salem men organized, and by careful management the new hotel was erected and caused much credit to : be brought, to Salem. The promoters, however, have been getting no more than 6 per cent interest. They are satisfied because the hotel is a credit to the city, the speaker said. Mr. Kay outlined briefly the in fluence and work of the State Chamber of Commerce in assisting local sections, of tha stale. The citizens of Portland realize that the .welfare of Portland is de pendent upon the welfare of -the state and therefore make", much effort to promote the development of industries throughout 'Oregon. He cited the help , given the flax growers here in buying special flax pulling machinery. ... v:it - -v 1' Starts ; 'Todijy TonigKt and Saturday ' i -'- Parents and Their Childf en .

The flax plant has some spin ning tow for -sale, however, .and there was recently shipped from Portland direct to London, on the steamship Ilowicfc Hall, a ton sample, of the' spinning tow. The spinners over Ihere wanted to see this sampla in' bulk. They will I uy from the sample, like hop buyers from hp samples, or tea buyers from tea musters. The spinning tow goes mostly into dress goods, and partly into tcwel3 and coarse twine. ' The acreage that will be needed this year is about all taken now. There will likely be a number of single acre tracts planted in var ious sections of the Willamette valley probably 50 of them, un der the supervision of the Oregon Agricultural college and the Port land Chamber of Commerce. There will be contracted just like larger tracts; the state furnishing the seed and buying' the flax. . The jCanby, district, which his not 'heretofore grown any flax, will grow some this year. The people down there are thinking seriously'ot promoting a scutching plant, and going into flax growing on a considerable scale. The threshing of flax at the state flax plant goes steadily on, and there are constant sales of flax seed, and of the ground seed for the drug trade. BOARD LEARNS NEW BUILDING UNLAWFUL (Continued from page 1) ations be dropped by - the deaf school and dairying be dropped at the girls school on the grounds that they were money lowers, ac cording to Senator Beals report Senator Beals claimed to have found similar conditions at' the state tuberculosis hospital but did not recommend the elimination of any activities. - Cows "Knot-hrevlpd' ' Heads of the institutions in question were at the meeting. Mrs. Clara Patterson, superintendent of the girls school, was at a loss to suggest means "whereby her ward's might obtain butter and milk with no dairy and no money with which to make the purchases. She ob jected to Senator Beals statement that the dairy herd was a bunch of "knot-headed" Jerseys. - "There wasn't a single cow in sight when Senator Beals visited the school," she emphatically de clared. - "None of the cows are to be classed, as 'knot-headed, ' ehe said. Other Vorces Heartl Dr. G. O. Bellinger, superin tendent of the tuberculosis hos pital, reported a waiting list of 4 3 at present and that when Senator Beals investigated he charged the budget estimate .of increase in population against the production two years ago, which he consid ered to be unjust.
