WHY BE A NOISOxME NUISANCE?
Run the Salem sewage through a large sewer several
miles into the country, and treat it and render it innocuous,
and use part of it for, fertilizer,pumped as sludge directly
onto the land, and the rest of it dried and hauled off and used
as fertilizer and fertilizer filler, and it will pay a profit, and
be of vast benefit to the Salem district, which must be made
"one vast garden and orchard, in the interest of national con
servation ' ...
. Making this the most populous,' most wealthy and most
contented section of the United States.
;i: Why not?' : ; . '( -
Why be a, noisome nuisance, when we can be a bounteous
' blessing? . . v.,;,y '; .
Herbert Hoover said in his Seattle speech Saturday night
that the United States will have forty million additional popu
lation in 25 years, and "we shall need more food supplies than
pur present lands will ?afford.'f T - .
, Let the people of Salem, and of the whole. Willamette
valley, take this cue, and live fully up to their opportunities,
by furnishing the vast supplies which nature has given them
the power to supply , 1 r .."'"

cent of sveetening power, taking bee tor cane sugar at 100
For Jerusalem artichokes grow in very large per acre ton
nage, and a process for granulating the levulose is being per
fected by the United States department of agriculture, and
the beet sugar factories can be adapted to making the levu
lose, after the beet crop i3 taken care of giving a whole yew
run in making these two kinds of sugar.
So there is likely to be plenty of business for all the beet
sugar factories, and 'many more to be built in this country, if
the sugar industry of the United States can have the proper
tariff protection against foreign sugars. -
Why should the United States import eight billion pounds
a year of the wind and water, of Cuba when she has plenty of
wind and water of , her own ?; Sugar is carbon, hydrogen arid
oxygen, taken from the air .and the soil by the leaves and the
roots.- ' ' -
0 .Why should the consumers of the Salem district pay high
freight charges on their sugar supplies, when they can grow
their sugar here? r-.-: i; t ; j :i:i.iX-: -yi
Why should our canneries . not have the advantage of
home grown sugar and the -cheaper prices they would get?
And our barreling plants arid processing plants of all kinds,
too? And our candy factories? - This would give them a
chance to expand their business indefinitely, with this decided
advantage over their competitors.
, Herbert Hoover," in. his speech in Seattle last Saturday
evening, August 21, declared, that ' water is ' our greatest
undeveloped resource today," meaning for power, navigation
and irrigation. ' The beet sugar industry here will mean a. vast
irrigation program. This will.mean. the storage of water for
the dry season flow, which will mean more water for power
development 1 And it will! mean the improvement of naviga
tion. It will call for Still water in the Willamette from Port
land to Salem, and afterwards on up to Eugene. t

THE SUGAR INDUSTRY SERIES
AriM n In PnncTnctnrt
$"Corn!. Common corn goes into a total of 146 commodities, jnch
as axle H rcase. sharing soap,: shoehorns, Tarnish: chair, cushions,
gunpowder, face powder and incense. Aside from- these there is a
market which if deTeloped could take care of , one hundred million
bushels, "or possibly more, of each crop of this yellow product, which
is now taking the place of wheat as the sUff of life: namely, the
manufacture of sugar from corn. More than eight: billion pounds of
sugar are imported Into the United States each year, and oar 'total
natire production of cane and! beet sugar is only a little more than
two billion pounds so that the market is undoubted. The American
people are the greatest of all sugar eaters. In 1924 more than six
teen billion pounds, or 14 S pounds per capita, 'were 'consumed JUereJ
"A bushel of corn can be made to yield twenty-fire pounds of
sugar. . On that basis, it eight billion pounds of corn sugar were to be
manufactured, which is the figure for our annual imports of the
commodity, 320,000,000 bushels of corn would find a new market.
Should only. 100,000,000 bushels be conrerted into, sugar,. far more
than the annual corn surplus would be taken care of and American
products would be grown, sold, and consumed under American con
ditions. i
"But this is only one angle of the possibilities that await the
farm it is only one part of the food angle, and farming is destined
to hare more than the food angle before many years.
The above is from Henry Ford's newspaper, the Dearborn
Independent, of last Saturday. ;
Tho figure for the consumption of sugar in the United
States is higher than has been given heretofore; that is, for
cane and beet sugar. It has been given at a little more than
six million tons, or 12 billion pounds, instead 16 billion pounds,
or about 111 pounds per capita, instead of 143 pounds. And
a hundred million bushels of sugar riiade from corn would not
replace as much beet or cane sugar as the Ford newspaper
would have it appear, counting 25 pounds to the bushel,
because on the basis of beet or cane sugar at 100, com sugar
has a sweetening value of only 74.3 per cent. Besides this.
the American consumers will have to get used to corn sugar,
even when it Is granulated and made to look like other sugar
before they will substitute even two and a half billion pounds
of it annually for beet and cane sugar -.
" And probably , by that time the American consumption
will have been sufficiently increased to take that much more
sugar each year than it is now taking 4 " 1:
Eq the competition of corn sugar will likely not interfere
with the beet sugar industry 'to a very great extent
Especially as an acre of land, will not produce more than
a sixth to a fourth as much -sweetening strength in corn
Eugar as it will produce in bect sugar to say nothing of the
superior indirect benefits of sugar ..bect growing over, corn
growing. ' ;. 7" .-i ,: ' : . v "'
A greater competitor of thn 1 :t sugar industry is prob
ably coming 'in hvu!oce, or crtk'.cke sugar, with 173.4 per
'the stars in-their courses fought again ? Siseray

' "There Is a? tide"; Iri'th affairs of men which, taken at
the flood, leads on to fortune,', said Shakespeare. The flood
tide of our opportunity to :get beet sugar factories is here;
first for the Salem district, where we are ready with every
requirement, and then at Eugene, Albany, Corvallis, and all
the rest of the cities fa'hd towns in the Willamette valleyf- '
For this is the place for the next major development of
the beet sugar industry ;lthe safest, arid hest place ,?
And no other one thing that could be done would benefit
this valley as much.-1 . - . '.:''

Sylvia left Steve In the morning.

go alone. . It ' was natural that
Steve should demur to v this, but
Sylvia was obdurate. ' . !:
"You couldn't help matters any.
dear," she told him, "and would
only be In the way. ' Take a look
around our fair city. Meet me for
luncheon here, e I're got to face
the lions alone." - . -1 '.
Face them alone she did. ' It
seemed amazingly, queer" to be
walking along the familiar streets,
feeling like a stranger. She was a
stranger, to most of the! persons
she passed. Breakfast, with Stere,
had been late, it was now after
ten, and most of the people Sylvia
knew, her friends and acquaint
ances in the screen world, were at
work on the Various lots. With
the.; exception of a 1 camera-man,
one or -two extra girls. sh saw -no
body who seemed td recognize her.
and eves they passed her with puz
scled looks, as though not at all
certain who she was.: Of this Syl

quarters.- She hoped to find him
In, but. did not feel at all sure of
it. Most probably he would be on

delight, his secretary. Miss Ream,
after surveying her with ' a. gasp
of astonishment, cameback from
the Inner office with the informa

She found him. big, grave, more

crop in his hand. 4 j, I ' "
