They most make thir liviuffs hy the honesty of the flax fiber in the twine of which they make their nets. In the beginning of the twine making industry in Salem, the agents for-the competitors having i wine for sale said flax could not be successfully, stoto , in the Willamette valley. This lie was nailed. Then they said our -pro were new in the industry V d did not know how. to treat the .fiber for the necessary quality and strength. This lie was nailed - 'And a succession of lies that followed., llie latest one was a.statement to the fisher folk on the lower river that all the flax grown in Europe must be retted : in the Xya river" Belginm; that flax retted elsewhere, does . not have the right strength and other essential qualities for t making fish net twine. " . ' 1 - K' ' Now that lie has been nailed! n Was nailed by the fisher - men themselves in Salenvpresenting about ' 7000 men - -engaged in salmon fishing, on -the lower Columbia. - The fact is that not a pound of flax was ever taken, from . . anywhere in Europe to be retted in the. lys riyer;. - The. idea tis absurd. Flax grown in Europe is retted where it is grown ; - dways has been; always will be. It has never been well ' retted, until during the war some of lhat grown in the BeK .' fast district was retted by artificially warming- the water. Cven now, this is only an mfinitesiznally small proportion -of all the flax grown in Europe. ; ' ------ The flax grown on the,Lys river has been better retted 'than elsewhere in Europe, excepting only that mentioned ; above, retted irj solt water artificially warmed. T3iis is be- iiaatTof the fact that xhe water in the Lys river is warm in ' iJy tHa MeLIunn If Vra Ashbaugh, son of Mr. and Mrs. C.

Reference was made in the editorial and news columns of Hie" Statesman of last Sunday to the Lausanne conference for church unity.' There is a remarkable report of that con ference' in this morning's issue, by Miss Margaret Slattery, that is worth reading, by every one -who thinks, the world over every one -who- both thinks and feels : especially feels the sentiments that look fb a better human race. harvest time , '-.- - , ' ' But it is not uniformly "warm; nor can its jwarmth be regulated for the rettmg of different batches of flax. , We have here in the Willamette ".valley "soft', water,. aslThat't surely som uik. aoft (free from alkali and lime and other minerals) as that of the Lys. river " ' V : And we artificially , warm , the " watert-w rm ;. it to the fraction of a degree needed for the best retting of different batches rtfU&rt- f'-.-Z-X: "- So we consistently outdo" the growers along the Lys river in the matter of retting. The fisher folk who visited Salem now' thoroughly understand this. They see how" bald a lie it was that has been told to them.-!- "'!ri-J- We do a lot of things here, better; than they are done else where in the world. Here is just one : We keep' the flax grown on every farm separate from that produced on every other farm. And treat it separately. " Thus samples of fiber ' - may be submitted to buyers, and they may know EXACTLY WHAT TJIEY ARE GOING TO GET WHEN THEY BUY OUR FLAX The same as our hop samples. Or the tea musters ' (or samples) of India or China or Japan or Ceylon, orelsewhere. The reader may see many advantages in this practice. - . -,', . .b Then we-pull, with machines. This makes for a better fibered product, in many ways. Soon, our scutching methods . will be superior to those of any other district in the world And so n through a long list. i . . k - We are on the up grade in' our flax and linen industries. - - - We can grow the, best and longest! and strongest and most resilent and most thoroughly "natured" flax in the world. And we are doing the best 'job of rettmg done in the, world, and of sampling, and . in other , ways we are a j ump ahead " ' otn"eXysriver district in Belgium, or anyther district, in this industry - "r ' . " t' The, truth Is good enough for the flax industry in the Salem dutrict When it is thoroughly known, lies told about it will only make jthe truth stronger, and benefit rather than injure the industry here. . : . j . C ' There is too much drunkenness on the highways of Ore- ' gon. . And in the streets of our cities, among drivers of auto-! mobiles. In this domain, the dry laws must be enforced, and the penalties must be given to the :full limits And more se- vere ; penalties added . if need .be. .'.A ' drunken; driver, evert a drinking - driver, " is a ; menace . on the highways. He i3 guilty in.his heart of manslaughter, when he goes ontp the highways. If .any one wants to commit suicide with the use of moonshine poison in his home, or any where else away from the; public highways and streets,! that is his private lookout; But it is a different thing for one to fill his hide vith'beoze and then get out and endanger. the lives of other people- No drunken driver should ever be allowed to drive again, for one thing.- That is the law in-Germany, where' it is enforced to the letter. . v- I ' Dlt For DreaVf at Another record Ttroxen : It was the Salem building ree-; ord for October, yesterday, ; s W V ..

This is significant of the cooperation be- tweem ' the city - and ' snrronnding country. ."What "Salem makes makes a lem, is "a snggested slogan by a friend at the writer's elbow.
