St. John 14:37. i SUPERIORITY COMPLEX ON PRUNES I The people of-this section have been so fed up on tales of woe concerning prunes that they were in danger of getting the inferiority complex or. slant on the whole industry , ;. When the,, opppsite attitude is the thing most needed! in the whole scheme, from the tree roots to the packages in the . market places of the world. ' - Several things h&ve been-happening of late to turn the Si ' c. slant the other way, 'and there can not be too many happen- ...... ux kiiia ivixiu. luisse mis paragrapn irom me .rorciana Journal of Tuesdays ' , "Shipments of dried prunes from the Oregon customs g district Increased 410 per cent in. 1926 oyer 1925, and dried 9 ,11 apples .increased 649 percent Last" yeat dried prune ship menisV mostly to Europe,": totaled -30.780,846 pounds, against jj 45,031 the yearbefor v Dried apples for 1926 totaled 1,13459, against 15186) pounds in 1925. The Columbia & river means a great deal to the, prune and apple growers of Portland's back country, as well as. to ail other producers in that great region." Y -- ' : : ; " J So it , transpires that the prune industry was not in as bad it a' way as the gloomsters have been leading our people to Xx ' imagine-?- , t 7 i . In fact there are several rays of hope. The biggest of tl our prune Cooperatives has sold out on the' 1926 crop, and has y . extended atnd built up a lot of satisfied markets, bn quality' '1 ' Not only in this country and Canada 4tut in foreign lands; 5 ' with England and Scotland taking"over4,000,000 pounds from, g -this. one group, and ready to take more, from the 1927 crop. - The one thing needed ,by our prune industry is near 100 8 r per cent cooperation; cooperation in putting up a superior . product and marketing it at a low cost; including advertising in many ways . iyT r' " .

Doing as the -successful cooperatives of California do, giving cooperative help all along the line, from 'the grower who produces , the fruit to the consumer; who. buys it; and comes back for more.

They, read the paper and learned of the advantages of this Z land of diversity and country of opportunity. They bought a home at Brooks, ow they are making that home beautiful, .ajid, contributing, to the drive .to make Brooks a spotless town. .That is a result of the kind for which The Statesmaii managers and editors work most diligently,-and which gives the most satisfaction to them. - Can you think of a better work than the one which sells Salem and the Salem district tQ her own people, and to other people who become satisfied and helpful residents of the best and potentially richest section of aUtheIgreen eartht;Lj:5 . 5 .

Bntler chairman of the republican national committee, told party leaders here today ttiat he 'did not come west to talk about candidates or issues,' but to urge organization. - ' "1 read in a newspaper,"-' the former senator from Massachusr etts said. "that f-am making this tour to put pep Into the republi can party. "This is a mistake. The party needs no pep. I carry the message of organization, for there b always room for improvement. even in -Oregon, for it keeps a party alive And assures us of sat isfactory results. ". ?- "No matter how good .the can didate and ' platform, loyalty to leaders and organization is what brings victory." Mr, Butler declined to be led into a discussion of the possible candidacy, of President Coolidge next year. He said, however, that he had received "much valuable information"" on his western trip. Did he have any idea as 'to. who would be the party candidate 'in 1928? He did not, Butler replied. That was a subject which the con vention would" -rhave to settle Where will the convention be -in San Francisco?
