V Armistice Day means a jrreat deal in the lives of many
Americans. Today ex-service men and others are thinking
back eight years ago, reviewing the scenes attending the
signing of the Armistice.. In some places boisterous celebra
tions were staged, the people simply went wild with joy,
while in others all was quiet. In some homes there was great
rejoicingxver the promised return of a father, son or brother,

COURT IN FAVOR
COUNTY AGENT
FINAL DECISION PORTHCOr,
1XG AFTER; INVESTIGATION
State and Federal Akl Possible,
Every Bank in Connty
Favors Plan
The Marion county court is in
clined to look favorably on the
idea of having a county agent, it
was learned following a meeting
yesterday morning at which the
court conferred with Lloyd T. Rey
nolds, president of the Marion
county community federation,
George Grabenhorst, president of
the Salem chamber of commerce,
C. A. Reynolds and George W.
liubbs of Stlverton, and Harley O.
White and C. E. Wilson of Salem.
No definite action was taken
by the court, hut it is considering
the matter and will report its de
cision soon. The court realises
the value of a county agent and it
Is inclined to be willing to have
one, providing his office can be
combined with that of county fruit
inspector.
The horticultural inspector at
present costs the county S1600 a
year, and it is proposed to pay the
new agent, if obtained, $3000 a
year. If this is done, state and
federal aid would be forthcoming.
Letters from every bank in
Marion county favoring . the pro
posed agent were shown by the
delegation, together with letters
from 22 out of the 25 counties in
the state having agents, all giving
high, praise of the idea, and stat
ing .their, intentions to keen the
agent.''
Out of the 36 counties in the
state. 25 of them now have
agents, and the number is rapid
ly, growing.
A letter from Judge Hawkins of
Polk - connty, who formerly op
posed the idea, of a county agent,
said that Tie was heartily in favor
of the agent established there last
year, and thaf he is being retained
for The coming year.
The national and state grange
have urged cooperation between
the local granges and the county
agents, and are strongly in favor
of the Agent idea.

B. C. Miles, founder of. the
Miles linen plant in Salem, yes
terday disposed of his interest in
the Miles Linen company to T. B.
Kay, state treasurer; Henry W.
Meyers and Carl Nelson of Salem.
Mr. Miles has resigned as presi
dent ot the company and bis son,
Ross G. Miles has retired as direc
tor. Henry Crawford o the Ladd
& Bush bank, was elected presi
dent of the company. Mr. Meyers
is the new manager. It was an
nounced that Mr. Kay is now the
largest individual stockholder in
the corporation.
Mr. Kay has been in the tex
tile business nearly all of his ac
tive life, operating the Kay Wool
en mill in Salem for many years.
He is president of the Oregon
Linen Mills, Inc., whose plant is
being finished, and which plant
is near that of the Miles mill.
Henry W. Meyers, 'who is to
manage the Miles mill, was for
many years in the general mer
chandising business in Salem, in
the Meyers store, now the Miller
store. His experience will make
him efficent in the selling end of
the linen business.
Probable Expansions
The Miles mill, the first on this
coast, which has been in opera
tion for over & year, makes linen
shoe and harness thread and fish
net twine. The plan is to extend
the markets for these products.
This will not interfere with the
business of the second linen mill
now nearing completion, hut may
be of help to it. The second mill
will weave linens, as well as spin
ning yarn for the market: for
eastern mills making various flax
products.
It ft lilcely that the operations
of the Miles mill will be extended,
perhaps with the making also of
yarns for the general markets,
and perhaps with the making of
specialties.
And Still More
It is known that there are men
engaged in a large way in flax
and linen development who are
looking to the Wiyamette valley
as a field for future operations,
and it is possible that a great

Not "babes in the wood,' but a
whole "family in the wood," rolled
into town yesterday morning when
Mr. and "Mrs. E. A. Wade and son
Jack, from "near Vancouver, Wash.,
arrived in their moving Douglas
fir palace and parked near the
court, house.
Following the example of the
Indians who ' hollowed them out
of logs to serve as dugout canoes,
the Wades have built themselves
a house by chiseling out the center
of a huge fir butt log, It feet
long and eight feet -in diameter.
Enough wood was taken out of
the center, Mr. Wade claims, : to
have built a nice four-room house.
The whole log would have sawed
6,580 fest of lumber.
Mounted on a truck and trailer
chassis and surrounded by four
steel cables to hold it in place, the
"log 'house" is on its way down
the coast in the interests of Doug
las fir publicity. The Wades are
scheduled to be in Eugene tonight
where forestry experts at the uni
versity will treat the iiuge log,
both inside and, out, with a prep
aration to prevent check-cracking
as the wood dries.
The log was cut at Schaf er
Bros, camp 12, near Montesano,
Wash., from a tree which started
growing about the time that Co
lumbus set out on his search for
the Indies, as shown by the 434
rings counted in the stump. The
