IRRIGATION, LIFE INSURANCE FOR CROPS
Irrigation in the Salem district is needed whenever rain
is needed, in summer seasons when itNis so dry that the mois
ture rom early rains cannot be conserved, for most of our
t crops r
-That is, it is life insurance
Take last year and this year. Our hops needed irrigation
last year, and where irrigation was used, the yield was in
creased 25 per cent. This year, the moisture in the ground, if
it can be conserved,fis sufficient to carry the crop through to
' harvest. It can likely be conserved by cultivation to-that
enf. Last year,eVer acre of our strawberries could have
beeji made to ykfiiiioUbl.pf more by propernrrigation. The
same was true as to raspberries and loganberries and most
bush fruits, except gooseberries, which come off early. And
irrigation would have helped most hi our cultivated. crops.
The men who are -prepared to irrigate their crops this
yearwill feel safer, though they may not be obliged to use
this substitute for rainfall. In this respect, they are in the
nosition of the man who carries fire insurance. .They are glad

consider themselves as fortunate in having taken out insur-
ance. . ; ;
The Willamette valley receives on the average only about
ajthirdTrasmuch rainfall during the three months of June,'
J..". end it (the most important growing months) as
tl yc."czzi I iissippi valley state. Putting it another way,
J-lXilvi.votilct gets an average of only about two inches
of rain for those months,; while the irrigated districts of
southern Jdaho,,with the best and largest irrigation systems
, in the .world, use an average of around a foot of water two
i inches here against two feet there for the summer months !
; Tiris a showing strong enough to warrant the taking
out of crop life insurance' by nearly every farmer in the Wil
lamette 'valley j or: nearly every
Hon water at a cost not too excessive to warrant thertrtitiay
I And the time is coming when that will be the general
practice. Our land is coming to be too valuable for the pro
ductiqn of wanted crops wanted by the wide world to, risk
loss or even partial loss from
certain, every year.
OREGON
This state seems
turing center of the United States. Nature has set the stage lor sucn
an Enterprise: Fiber flax grows no better in .any region of the world.
We hare flax soil, soft climate and the soft water which are the three
gret essentials' to the growth of flax and the manufacture ofits
products... t J" ' 9- v ' ; !; ' :
In this issue te an article by John H. McNary, descriptive o the
movement now on foot to establish a linen factory at, Salem, a factory
designed to consume the fiber crop from 8000 acres of land. Such a
plant cbuTdUrfanufacture but a small fraction of the linen we buy from
abroad, and it could consume the crop from.but a fraction of the
potential flax land of the'state. Our possible flax acreage is estimated
at about half a million acres; and we are buying from abroad about
$9l7oO0,t)9? worth pfiHaen-each year, 125,000,000 of which is of
such linens as the prqposd Salem plant will manufacture. '

be taken by some other indystry." It is high time we were establish

Linen and woolens, can be manufactured heTe for the world's needs.
These industries couldbe made permanent; and they could be in
time made to take the fall burden4of furnishing: the balance for the
trade of the state. For the larger part of all the things we consume

FORESTRY
There are indications everywhere of increased interest in
the preservation and propagation of bur forests, national,
state and privately owned. j i p j
The last legislature passed laws of a decidedly beneficial
nature regarding forests. '.The authority of the ?tate board
of forestry was .broadened. Compulsory patrol s extended
to all forest land. Slash disposal must be so handled as to
leave ' land in condition for reforestation. Opening deer
season deferred to September 10 as fire protective measure.
State may accept land as gift and also sell timber reserving
land for reforesting.'; There was appointed also at the last
session a committee to draft a new reforestation law.
Widespread; vigorous effort is being made through the
press, by means of circulars and by personal appeals to use
every precaution possible against fires in the forests. Fire
is the most subtle, the most devastating of forest enemies.
The results of the campaign against "accidental or careless"
fires should.be less danger and less waste. ;
In keeping with the policy of education as a chief factor
in the future solution of forestry problems the regents of "the
Oregon Agricultural College
purchase of 320 acres of forest land within abou; eight miles
of the college and near the West Side highway. '
Of this area about eighty acres will be used for an arbor
etum. The remainder of the tract will be used for thinning,
pruning, and growth studies and other experiments.
The acquisition of this tract is ! additional evidence of
progress in the preservation and propagation of our. forests
which should be kept in mind as our greatest national re
source.";;,. , - 1 , . . . , . ..

The decision of Judge MacMahon in regard to the tobacco
tax referendum title was to be expected on the basis that an
injunction might be -used at a period so near the final date
for filing the petitions to refer that any referendum might
be deeated in this way. J -
The tobacco tax referendum ought not to have been in
voked. This referendum at this time, under existing-conditions
is a blow at the referendum law itself and should be
be defeated in this way. i
That an appeal made to the court within the legal period
for such procedure might have brought the results sought
in the application for injunction is current expression now.
But, "If", is of course debatable. ; I J

If Mr. J. J. Nunn and others

that the JVillamette May Day

minds in the estimation of the
students of that Religious educa

tespect for that institution as a

to continue to grow as a religious
irstitution and molder of strong
characters, the lives of the young

are being shaped by Its influence
must be guided into safer chan
nels than the recent May Day ex

I may be an old fogey, behind

CHAPTER 464
THE j PLAN GRACE DRAPER
AND HER ACCOMPLICES MADE
Without a sound tne motor po
liceman fell forward into- the car
and the big man, who had just
struck him down, bent over him
with a cool deliberation which
horrified me' even more than the
blows had done.'
"Well?" Grace Draper's voice
held the same unemotional note.
j "He hasn't croaked." the big
main said. "Shall I finish the
job?" : ......... ,i - ;i ,
, f "What's eating you; anyway?'
the chauffeur growled. , He had
dismounted from his ! seat - when
the policeman had come back to
the tonneau. and; had been stand
ing just behlnd."the officer when
the big man's blow had felled
him. i
s "You must simply be honing for
the chair." he went on significant
ly, "and let me tell you there isn't
any time to waste monkeying with
this fellow. Hfs pal isn't far off,
believe me. and when he finds this
chap he'll figure some car on this
road is responsible r The cops will
be flagged ahead and they'll be.

"George Ig Right."
"Make it snappy,
then; the I
chauffeur retorted.
r Without more words the two
men picked up the unconscious
officer, and, carrying him to the
side of the road, deposited him in
a ditch which completely hid him
from the view of anyone on the
road. Then they wheeled the mo
torcycle to the same xjiteh, and
turned it flat on its side, hastily
throwing some branches over It.
- "There!" the big- man said In a
satisfied voice - when he -returned
to the car, "nobody who isn't
looking for him will find that guy
before we're at our stopping place,
so let's beat It George.' :?

. "You're craiy with the heat,"
the big man snarled. "'"Yon. keep

"George Is , right," Grace Drap
er struck In with decision. "The
sooner we get to Tony's the bet-j

.!"I get you." i George replied,
climbing into the driver's seat
again., while the big man, patent
ly rebellious, but keeping bis sen
timents unspoken, seated himself
opposite us.
George - followed Grace Drap
er's direction Implicitly running
east before he turned the car
around. There! "was . a tension
which I could i feel in the atti
tude of both the I big man and the
woman whose hateful arms held
me so tightly. ! and I knew that
they would not feel safe until they
were well away from the spot
where lay the unconscious officer.
When the car turned ' off the
smooth, broad boulevard Into the
narrower and infinitely rougher
dirt road which led across the is
land to the north. I scented the re
laxation in both of them, although
they made no outward sign. And
the very fact that they were more
at ease sent my own spirits tobog
ganing. .-;!.:-..-,, , , . -
Even - thV carefully-fashioned
springs of the costly limousine
were not proof against the rough
dirt road, and I was glad indeed
when we turned into the middle-
island road. Not that in the stress
of my terror I minded so small a
discomfort as jolting. But at every
jolt I was thrown' against Grace
Draper, felt her malicious arms
clasp me closer,! and 'heard, her
malicious arms clasp me- closer,
and heard her," venomous; little
chuckle. I was wholly In her pow
er, and I did not know what di
abolical thing she might choose to
do to me." j "-""si '
The chauffeur slowed down the
car, and the big man spoke wor
riedly: ;l . -1
