We may overdo on most of them; We may grow; more Strawberries than we can ell at a profit, even with the outlet of the huge demand for these berries in barrels. And loganberries. And gooseber ries. And peppermint oil. Though these products will no doubt all right themselves in time, partly owing to our super ior qualities land! comparatively cheap lands and overhead Charges. But there are plenty of strings to our bow of pro duction on which we may play without fear of over produc- ioh . :V; As for instance : . ' Flax, worked into linen products. , Dairy, products. u . Walnuts and filberts.' Roquefort cheese, and drug garden products, and garden seeds, and mohair ! And pork products ; And a long list of specialties in which we excel or may 3xcel, or which we produce or may produce at a cost lower ti than is possible in other sections. ; '''-We have a diversity now that is greater than any other ection in this country. But we may increase the diversity Almost indefinitely., 1 ' - In the coming beet sugar industry here, there is no pos sibility of over doing, for a generation, or many generations. And that will be the mother industry of a number of others of pyhich the same thing may be predicted. ; Let us further diversify our present great diversity. Then "We will have a Gibralter industrial structure; without indus tries on the land joined with our industries in our cities in an unshakable structure.

Too much cracked fruit, ? developing' mold. Other car's are faring better. And the Lamberts will likely bring up the average, if they escape rains to crack them. V . The experiments in canning black cherries; carried on by sev eral of our largest can ners in the valley, may develop an outlet that will help-in marketing future big crops of BIngs and Lamberts. But the cherry growers will always need a good deal of fair weather in picking' time, with immunity from heavy rains Interspersed with warm sunshine. V The Portland Telegram suggests factories that will process prunes and send them to market under attractive names, to avoid the odium of the ancient boarding house joke. Not a bad idea. In England all prunes are called plums. They are plums, in fact. The cannery demand is likely to help a lot, too. Under any name, the prune is a great fruit, and the world might be taught to under stand this by good advertising.

Editor Statesman: There are two sides to .every story and I would like to devote a few paragraphs to the auto rac ing situation in Salem. No matter how sincere or hon est a promotor may be he must be well discouraged with the sit uation prevailing at the state fair grounds. Just east, of the fair grounds is a j small farm property bordering the track. When there is any thing of interest promoted on the track, the owner of this property without investment in the enter prise, for a small sum sells admis sion to the fence on the east side of the track. This Is unfair and is one of the things that has killed the Salem fair grounds track and consequent ly injured the establishment of the track as a Willamette valley raeing event cent'. During the rai-s of May 7th, hundreds of persos took advant age of this "economical" means of witnessing the evt n.s. forgetting that ' this would handicap the game, here. : - " j The struggle tq ' develop the Salem fair grounds track for high FRENCH FLYER READY FOR HOP : 6 LCL - .

J The first wo races managed by Mr. Mt-Cail drew the largest crowds for auto races ever booked on this track. In bis third attempt Mr. McCall assembled the best list of drivers and machines yet brought here. Bad weather and a Saturday date cut down the gate receipts quite a bit and affected the pro gram of May T. Yet the events staged were Worth , the f money, especially when one 'considers that Mr. McCall paid out of his own pocket a deficit of over $1,000.

Let 8 have a greater cucumber industry. - i( :' Robert C Paulus reviewed the cannery situation in a talk at the Salem Rotary noon luncheon yesterday: " He told of the weak spots as well as the strong ones. He said the English dealers have a large carry-over of loganberries, because they over-bought last year. But they are taking a loss, and the cheaper prices, will no doubt stimulate buyer demand, and bring the dealers into the market later for supplies of this'and 1,0081 everything that helps if - L- ..

But this retards buying for future use, and obliges cannery men ty carry large? stocks, and thus cripples ' small concerns in 'financing tfie present year's pack. There is a bright side tti .the! canned prune market. It is cleaned up, so that every cannery will likely use all - that can be put through in the short season for canning this fruit. And in apples there will likely be a big pack, for the same reason. ; The canners have Hheir troubles," but they will no doubt muddle through. The whole Salem fruit district is vitally interested. Without 'prosperous canneries ; the outlook would be far from good for future fruit'erop sales. , v CA'rrilfJG VOLUME TOTAL SilOWS iriDUStRY SCOPE berry situation is about the same as that on strawberries. Loganberries face' the difficulty i of 4 rarry over crop which has re- educed prices, abroad especially but lie re again the crop was light so I that better price are- assured. -'Bamettfv: pears, ? : and IUHan i prnnes face a good season with ; lio danger of overproduction, Ap- jiles also face favdrable market.

But In general, the prospect Is as good as it is most seasons at this time, and Indications are that most of the canned fruit supplies turned out this year will be used up before -another canning season arrives, the speaker concluded.' o V ' U ) E1U Tar Breaif aat I that any man risking such an in vestment should be compelled to face, the competition spoken of. It is to be hoped that state fair ground officials will take steps to protect the fair grounds track from this situation. Assurance that he is not furnishing 'an at traction at his own expense for this outside 'g'ateswould bring many attractions. to Xhe local track now held away toy this condition. : - Now a ( word ' concerning t Mr. McCalL He has been in the 'auto racing game for over 18 years and Is now president of the Northwestern-Auto Kaclng association. He hat made a single handed fight to eliminate the old game of staging fake race! meets, and proof of his success has been his races at 8a lem., Allen, Idaho,' Kin county fair r grounds, Seattle; Hamlin track, Minneapolis: Vancouver, Wash., "(record crowds) ; Baker City, California, and other tracks.

DEFENDS YOUTH Resolution Passed at International Convention CLEVELAND. Ohio, July 6. (AP) Youth" was defended by the International Christian En deavor convention .here today. With applause a resolution was adopted declaring the convention representing some 40.o,l)'p0 Chris tian people in various parts of the world; "lifts its voice in behalf of fair-minded recognition of youth at the handsof the elders of the present generation." The resolution asserted youth of the present generation are as responsive to claims of high ideals as the youth of any past genera tion. "We deplore the fanciful and foolish actions of many young people, which we confess, are of a sort to give just grounds for cri tical comment and critical opin ion' the resolution continued. '"On the other hand, we. main tain that ; sweping accusations which are given widespread cur rency concerning youth of the pre sent generation, and which reflect both upon its intelligence and in tegrity are not alone ungenerous, but that they seriously reflect on the intelligence and character of those who make tbem." - v- DISPOSE OF BANK STOCK I.umlxn-iiM'n'H Trust Company Hank Sold to Port landers PORTLAND, Ore..

The major product of the West ern Dairy Products company is Sunfreze ice-cream, which recently completed a $2, 000 contest tor a name, and because of the publicity given it' then, and also because of it? fine quality, has become a popu lar seller everywhere.

Mr. Sweet announced that the record of Sunfreze sales in the Salem district, including Salem. McMinnville. Albany, Toledo, and Tillamook, has been far beyond the expectations of the company, and predicted another large in crease in the future.
