SALEM DISraiCT SHOULD HAVE A GREAT BEAN
Beans have been grown in Europe and Asia since the
memory of man mnneth not to the contrary ; their cultivation
commenced before the recording of history began. -v
' : ' Beans are perhaps the most important vegetable crop in
the" world, next to potatoes. They were grown ages before
potatoes were known outside of ancient Peru. -:
' The United States Department of Agriculture places the
bean crop at the head of the list in importance in. the city
home garden... I . ...... : v. .-- v
i . Prof. Bouquet of the Oregon Agricultural college, one pf
the best authorities on this coast on garden crops, thinks the
greatest development in the f uture of the green bean industry
will be the use of certain varieties as sladbeans:',;.,Thisprer..
diction ought to have the atention of bur cannery managers.
iHere is a chance for great things for making this the out
standing bean center of the wjiole country. ,
Why should not Salem', in 4he center of a great salad
bean country, take, advantage of this idea ? : -'
It is well to' stress the importance of beans as a rotation
crop. They are a leguminous crop. . They take out of the air
. and put in the soil the things needed in the soil.
Some growers here are raising beans as a second crop
with spinach as a-first "crop. Bean straw is good tock feed,
and makes especially good fertilizer! v .
All in all, the showing for this basic Salem industry is
conclusive. It should be persistently followed and it should
grow.. -;. .:-v; ' v . . - -
in the series of three plays which
the . Moroni Olsen players are pre-
tsenting in Salem this season.
For those who saw "Th;Ship"
last, night for. the first, time. and
those' who had their first intro
duction to Mr. Olsen'g unique cir
cuit repertoiry company, the per
formance was the finest of proclo
mations.' The plaj; ''sn'owed the
company at its best and the com
pany was the sort that made the
most of the play,
Those who 'saw the first offer
ing, Pygmallon," recognized al
most a complete reversal of parts
in a number of instances. Janet
Young, the flower-girl in October,
came to Salem in December as Old
Mrs. Thurlow, silver-haired and
eighty-three. Byron Foulger who
took the part of ' the lower-class
father was the idealistic young
son of the shipbuilder in the play
last night. Moroni Olsen, him
self,' was the builder of ships who
represented tjie middle member in
three generations of Tfrurlows.
A tense theme moves to a tre
mendous ending: The clash, of
understanding between- those so
near to the beginning of 'life and
those so near to the close.; John
Thurlow, the father, the greatest
builder of ships in' England, de-
fled his father, a minister, and
chose his own profession. In turn
his son. Jack, demands his own
life, and a" profession of his own
choosing. To the elder Thurlow
a ship was "as sensitive as a
young girl"; to the eldest Thur
low of ail it' was an ideal that had
survived, a beautiful piece of
work; and to the youngest Thur-
, "Oregon produces a string bean that is superior in qual
ity and yield," was said in an official, publication by Prof.
Bouquet, some time ago. r That is a solid foundation on which
to build. It is in the nature of a franchise. 1 . ?
Our people 'also should grow their own Oregon Lima
beans,- and quit buying this variety from California.
And our people ought to produce more dry beans for our
-own- markets and 'those to the north, especially1 those of
Alaska. We can do so, at a profit, and with advantage to
,the soil; in the way of rotation crops.

in closing. "And none of as Are
wrong. That's why we must meet

, Whimsical lines throughout the
earlier action of the play brought
forth chuckles hearty and innum
erable, but during the later,; cli
mactic scenes tne actors "carried
their parts in such a moving man
ner that more than one tear fell,
more than one sob crept into the
throat, .And at the final scene the

SOME VALUES OF CLUB WORK

" Every normal person takes real pride in ownership.f The
business man if successful looks with-pleasure' upon' his bus
' iness. Likewise; the workman views with satisfaction his
ivorkwell done: nd the vast majority of those who are
really successful grow up with and develop through, efforts of
head and hand their own projects. And coextensive with this
' pride there is developed genuine interest. :
,1 Based upon the, elements of pride and interest, in own
f iefship-isthe boy s' and girls' club work. One of the first
'requirements is that they own the project which they try to
' develop. "John's ' lamb but father's sheep is not conducive
v'to the most enthusiastic, persistent effort in club work. The
. same condition prevails where there is a partnership in name
only. In order to obtain the best results the partnership of
the boys and girls with their parents shall be genuine. This
doeS not mean,, pf . course! that , the boys and girls are to do
i no "work without pay! or partnership returns.: On the con-
traiy justice , to "home requires persistent, worthwhile work
' as a matter of simple duty to the home partnership without
at Jeast immediate monetary compensation.- v ; f:
. v iSpme of the values from club work are seen in increased
production of. better crops, and improved types of livestock.

' Improved methods are emphasized during the impress-
ionable'age of the club members and consequently will be
' retained through life. Systematizing the - accounts of the
.'project 'even is training essential to success1' and 'will be of
value always.- '. ' ' v
And still another result among the most valuable in
juvenfle club work is that parents generally find their own
interests in the various projects, and in farm life rejuvenated
by the efforts and enthusiasm of the children. Better farm
ingi better farms, better homes and happier, more prosperous
rural communities are some of the landmarks of boys' and
girls' club work in Oregon; " - ' ",:";.. . . ' 1 ' w"
