No. 151 Model EC Jr. 8 JULY SPECIAL $2.25 Down $2.00 Monthly $13.50 Cash Demonstration All This Week Salem District Boasts Many Fine Camp Grounds Through the courtesy of C. A. Gies of the Triangle Realty com pany and proprietor of the Cherry City cottages by the fairgrounds, a Statesmen representative was shown the auto camp of the Salem district yesterday afternoon. One thing that was impressed was the fact that the auto camp business is no more to be a sideline busi ness, but rather a highly special ized business, just as selling mer chandise or running any other business. Tourists approaching Salem from the south first find a little camp owned and operated by A. S. Groce, called the White Arrow auto camp. This camp is three and one-half miles south of the city and has a large number of nice trees and considerable grassy- land. Mr. Groce has two double and two single cottages and can accommodate a large number of campers. He has a small store. and gives the use of grounds free for picnicking. Considerably closer to the city is John Graber's Cold Spring park. Mr. Graber has built and furnished two cabins. One, a log cabin, is nicely finished inside, and has the conveniences of toilet, hot plate, fine kitchen and fire place. Mr. Graber does not have camping on his grounds, but has many large picnics. He plans to build several more of his de luxe cabins and will install a swim ming pool on his land later. He has nicely preserved the freshness of the native woods on his land, and has made his tract very In viting. In West Salem two camps were visited. The Capital City Tourist camp has 16 cabins, showers, com munity kitchen and other conven iences. This is strictly a cabin camp and no tent camping Is done here. S. L. Burk and son Also have a West Salem park on the bank of the river. They have 15 cabins, four new, and several acres for tent camping in fine shade. These two West Salem camps are well equipped but have bad a rather light business this season, due principally to the broadcasting of the news that there was a light fruit crop here this year. AH camp owners re ported that this report cut heavily Into their business this year. Then too, the fact that the west side is off the main highway means some what less potential trade, but In normal seasons business has been good. The largest number of camps is to be found at the north of the city. Travelers from the north first see the Wenatchee camp, some two miles from the northern boundary of the city. This camp has 11 single cabins and some room for tent eamping. Showers and laundry facilities are provid ed, and the cabins are far enough apart that their occupants enjoy some degree of privacy. A. B. Snyder, who is proprietor also has a small store on the grounds. The Noah's Ark camp is just about a block north of the north city boundary. It has four double and six single accommodations. In the future It will be enlarged to some extent. Cold water is provided in all the cabins here, and an abundance of hot water Is obtainable on the grounds. This establishment is rather new. and has a trade to build. It has a store on the ground, also. Next the city boundary is the Unique camp ground and cabins, operated by C. L. Wright. The cabins on this ground are quite large, and either one or two beds may be used, according to the needs of the party using the cabin. This place will be enlarged next year, if present plans carry. Adjacent to the entrance of the state fairgrounds are the Cherry City cottages, owned and operated by A. C. Oles. In this camp there are six single and four double cabins. The plat has room for tent camping, but this class of trade is not catered to at all. Two of these cabins have private show ers and toilets, and although they rent higher than the other cab ins, they are usually the flrit ones taken, and Mr. Oles often has them reserved ahead. All the cabins have excellent kitchen con veniences, and all have Simmons beds and double coll springs. Laundry trays and shower con veniences of the best are central ly and conveniently located on the grounds. This ground is quite new, but as a result of carefully planned advertising, it enjoys a very flourishing trade. Within the city itself, in the Hollywood district, is the Lone Star camp ground operated by E. C. Ballinger, Mr. Ballinger has 16 cabins, seven of which are double. The Lone Star camp is situated in what was once intend ed for a cherry orchard, and the trees provide welcome shade on the hot days. Then there Is the Municipal camp, located on South Winter street. It has six cabins and 1C tenthouses. It boasts a stream on two sides and a large number of oak trees. There is a great deal of room for camping and picnick ing, and the grounds are used for this a great deal, especially on holidays. Although it has far fewer cabins than most of the other camps, it has had an ex ceptionally large number of visit ors. Figures for this season give the following numbers of visitors March, 133; April, 179; May, 352 June 730; and the first five days of July, 143. This is by far the largest number of occupants ol any of the camps. Only one of the other camps visited claimed to have full house anywhere near every night, and its number for Jupne was in the region of 200. Camp owners lay their lack of business to several causes, which it will not be necessary to men tion here. Suffice it to say that tourists coming to Salem find good accommodations, perhaps not as luxurious as at some places, but good. It was significant and clearly shown that owners who had really done aggressive work in stimulating trade were the ones that were profiting the most Just as in every other business.

TBiieyfir Lytle Says Wild Pea fr. C4maIs flAlftl Lupine weed, commonly known as wild pea. probably was respon sible for the death of a large number of cattle and a few horses in eastern Oregon recently, ac cording to investigations conduct ed by Dr. W. H. Lytle. state vet erinarian. Most of the losses were confined to Sherman county, the veterinarian said. Dr. Lytle said that cattle feed ing experiments were being con ducted at the Moro experiment station to determine the poison ous content of the lupine weed.
