'' v ; All the crops in which we excel are good for the people on the land and also the people of . our towns and citiesl The benefits of loganberry and prune and filbert and walnut and strawberry and cherry growing, and of the other crops that we produce to advantage here, compared with other sections, do not stop with the returns to the growers and the Ipeople they employ. They extend to the.canners and packers and shippers and dealers, and the people they employ, and j to the butcher and baker and candlestick maker, who receive indi rect benefits -.!" s V- ' . jj j , r : '4 U; j But not one of the other crops mounts up so fast in value and so many times, employing well paid labor all the, way from the land to the ultimate consumer; giving the farmer who produces the first floor raw materials a profitable crop, and furnishing chances for good profits for capital and man agement and labor all the way to the top; to the fine! linens and laces" and 'tapestries '".- '.. f ;i j J ; .-' , And not for an occasional gdod year, but for every year, and for all time, down through the generations. j If a Salem district farmer with 100 acres of good mint, produces 70 pounds of . peppermint oil to the acre, and now. worth $12 a pound, had his last year's crop to sell now, he would get over $84,000 for it I i , t And -this might happen some other year.

Depew, on his 91st birthday, concluded a long speech with the following words : ij ! s "So, my-friends, I have come to the conclusion, - long experience and many .large observations with judgement, properly based, and properly buttressed, that the only sure guides to success are. character, health and happi ness. Each man of my age receives personally and by letter innumerable inquiries of how to b happy, how to bejhealthy and how to live long. Happiness has a curious quality in that it increases by its distribution. 6 Longevity is largely a matter oi curomgappeuies, unui temperance and moderation become habits, and from this review which I have made of the world at large, of oiir own country and olir own community," I am more firmly convinced than ever that this is a mighty good world to live in, inhabited by mighty companionable and lov able people, and I want to stay here as long as I can. if CRITICISM OF YOUTH : i i The younsrer neoDle are severelv eritirisA -fnv h Vinr. of pooks they read, the types of pictures they like to! see and the variety of entertainments they enjoy. But did it ever oc cur to these critics that it has been persons of an older gener ation who wrote these same books nd who generally! provide these entertainments? And these Books and entertainments are usually permitted to exist; because the generation which furnishes them reap prof its therefrom. Strip these objec tionable features, in fact, of the profits they produce and they will speedily be lost from sight. That the love of money is the root of all evil is still true and even young people are sac- rificed of times to this love of profit. In some cases, laws are not enforced as thev should be because thev are entrrisref. fv. much to the hands of those of the older generation who have net caught the vision of the new order of progress. ; "Old men for counsel and youns men for war'; is of ten quoted.'

IN . The double cross being put over on the legislators who were told by the officers of the retail tobacco dealers associa tion that the proposed law taxing cigarettes, smoking tobac co and snuff would not be ref erended is not particularly re lished as evidenced in the events of the last few days. ! Attorney Schroeder of Portland, clerk of the joint ways and means committee of the last session of the legislature, the man who drafted this bill, has been at the capitol of the state during the past few days. studying! the situation relative to the referendum. An unmistakable spirit of 1 resentment against the action of the dealers in their changed attitude as expressed in their attempt to referend the law they promised to suport is found everywhere. : . j The proposition to omit the tax from cigars and chew ing tobacco came from their sponsors of the referendum themselves And this feature is now being played up as dis crimination by th law in favor of the rich man. At trie time or tne bearing oirthe tobacco dealers' committee before the ways and means committee, this objection to the law was de clared groundless and statistics , were produced to show the fairness of the tax on cigarettes, smoking tobacco and snuff only. :'V -..;; ' r' . : ; w .-! :: No large amount of objection is heard to the tax by the users of the kinds of tobaccos to be taxed. Thousands of users pay no other tax and are willing to contribute the amount of the tax proposed but they are being lined up so far as possi ble by the sponsors of the referendum. The, whole procedure presenting cowardly desertion from the attitude its sponsors took before the legislature and the use of this referendum to their own selfish ends ought to prove a boomerang jfor an initiative measure providing a higher tax than: the one pro vided and including ALL kinds of tobacco. I Y MARRIAGE S- PROBlEIUI Adele Grrioiri Rew Fhaae of REVELATIONS OF A WIFE Copyrlxht by Newipapor Fetur Srrlc CHAPTER 449 The TVy Katie and Jim Took Lillian's Rather Strong Advice For a tense, puzzled second or two, I wondered if Lillian had not made a mistake when she told Jim, in Katie's hearing, to keep a tighter rein npon his wife. I I knew it was 'adTice that Lil lian had thoughtfully contem plated siring because of her study of my little maid's voattle and tempestuous temperment. Katie still was imbued with so much of the .superstition and an cient traditions of woman's sub servience, brought with her from her birthplace across the seas, that she would always be ready to -yield obedience to the most masterful person near her. It was highly desirable that her hus band should be that person.- But the girl had also gleaned ia her new environment, many ideas . of economic and conjugal equality, as jumbled and ludicrous a the distorted specimens of American slang with which i Bhe garnished her speech. . Would they make themselves felt in her reaction to this touch of the spur from Lillian? ? And then there came to my ears a sound I had not heard for many days a distinct . giggle from Katie." ''. f - True it held a note of hysteria, but there was also in it the joyous nonchalance . with . which Katie sheds worry when she is sure that someone else has assumed ' her burdens. ' With Jim back.1 and the assur ances of safety " from Joe which Lillian and I had voiced. Katie was her old volatile care-free self again. And to my great relief, I saw that she was too intoxicated with happiness to recognize the serious intent behind Lillian's warning. Jim could deal with her later on that score without' the handicap of the girl's resentment against LiUian's advice. : 'I'm Your Man." : ! "Maybe .you better take . beeg steeck to me Jeem," she said co quettishly, and I saw her hand smooth r the tumbled hair back from his forehead. Jim did not Bmile he, is neither so nimble- witted nor so ephemeral in his emotions as Katie but he clasped her work-hardened hand in his, and held it to his cheek with an awkward tenderness which made my eyes moist as I turned toward Lillian In time to catch; her vehement nod of the head toward the door. I seized the cue, and turned back to the absorbed pair by the table. "You won't need us any more, Katie," I said off-handedly. "Be sure you make Jim finish his supper." "1 f eex heem eef he don't." Katie rejoined gayly with another coquettish glance at her husband but Jim got to his tfeet, heavily and awkwardly, and crossed the room to us. .; : "I ain't much on the talk," he said In embarrassed fashion, "but if ever either of you needs any thing done that I can do, no mat ter howfbig or hard a Job it Is, I'm your man." ;. ' Madge Tells Her Story. ' "We know that, Jim," I said heartily, holding out my hand to Liza., And we're all Terr triad to tea r- ":i tcne. Your old Job is here for you whenever you're ready to work." j ' , . "I'll be on the job tomorrow morning," Jim said simply, . and then Lillian and I were i outside the door, each. I think a trifle thriUed by the picture we had glimpsed as we left the kitchen- the picture of Katie in her hus band's arms with his, head bent tenderly to hers. ; ,: . j It was Lillian who spoke first, in the flippant manner with which she masks her deeper feelings. "And that's that," she! said "We can look forward to some scrumptious meals in "the next few days. I Imagine.' j Katie'd lay . herself . out to feed Jim up, and we'd reap the benefit. Tell me. Is Jim fond of chicken with biscuit?". ; . j , . I laughed at the whimsical earnestness with . which she put the question concerning her own favorite dish. , m I "Passionately, I'm sure," I re turned. "And we'll have it for dinner tomorrow." i ' . t "If you ever go to Congress, they'll put you in . charge of the pork barrel," she retorted. "You're a good provider, Madge. I'll, say thatf - for you.; Are you terribly tired," - ' ' ' ' ; '- ., ; I seized the cue immediately. ' "Not too tired to talk," I said. "I have reams to tell you." "Which I shall pass tola better world if It don't hear," she an swered as I opened my room door and oshered her In. : J I :Youre the lucky mother." she commented, as I adjusted; a screen in front of Junior's crib before turning up the light, 'to have a child talking won't wake up." "As long as the light doesn't shine in his eyes, he's safe,", I re turned, then I drew up a chair op posite me, and told Lillian the story of the days which had elapsed since I had gone to Dicky's aid. ! f t . , " Did You Ever Stop toThjjik? f By E.
