Samming up the Farm Ledger .
FROM now until after the first of the year adding machines
will be busy in counting offices totalling accounts for
the year's business. In some divisions the amount has
already been rung up. Take farming: the bureau of agricul
tural economics says that the farm value of Oregon crops
for 1935 is $50,323,000, which is over a million dollars in
excess of the value for last year, $49,268,000j For 1933 the
value is reported at $63,002,000. In view of the farm pros
perity generally reported it is hard to see on what it is based
if the farm income this year is nearly $13,000,000 less than
two years ago. It is also hard to see where the slump has
occurred. The income from hops is very much less ; and the
wheat crop was smaller both because of drouth and be
cause of reduced acreage. It would hardly seem that these
would amount to anywhere near the deficiency reported for
the two-year term.
Wheat is still the principal crop in the state. The 1935
yield of 15,551,000 bushels brought the growers $10,730,000
while last year's crop of 12,944,000 bushels gave a return to
growers of $9,538,000. These yields are much below the five
3ear (1928-1932) average of 21,205,000 bushels, due to seri
ous drought in 1934 and again in 1935. Moisture conditions
now are very unfavorable for the 1936 crop ; and plantings of
fall wheat are much below normal. So the outlook is not very
good for next season.
Potatoes in Oregon get into big money, $3,367,000 for
1935 and $3,032,000 for 1934. Production Amounted to 4,810,
000 bushels this year and 5,720,000 bushels last year. The
freeze of November destroyed many tons of undug potatoes.
The hay crop is an important one, with a total farm value
this year of $14,766,000 for 1.823,000 tons; which compares
with $15,923,000 for 1,977,000 tons.
For hops the estimated returns to growers for 1935 crop
are $2,955,000 for 123,500 bales. Last year's production of
97,750 bales brought $2,932,000. This year only about
100,000 bales were harvested the remainder "being left on
vines because of crop damage, labor shortage and low prices."
Apples, peaches, prunes and cherries returned the grow
ers $8,202,000 which is about $571,000 less than for 1934.
The dried prune production this year was 31,500 tons, about
7,300 tons more than last year, but the value this year of
$1732,000 is $325,000 less than for the smaller 1934 crop.
, The earth has again yielded its fruits in bountiful store.
The farmers have labored and produced that the world may
not starve. For their labors the farmers have received a
great deal of money, two rjer cent more than last year; but
when the $50,000,000 isspread among the.thousands of farm
families in the state it is easy to see that the average cash
income of the farmer is still low.
Big News Stories of 1935
NEWS departments cannot run up their scores on adding
machines to make impressive totals. But there has
grown up a custom to appraise the news stories of the
year, on about the same basis that All-American football
teams are selected or best plays of the year picked out.
J. M. Kendrick and W. F. Brooks, executive news editors
of the Associated Press, have posted their lists of ten big
gest news stories for 1935 already, evidently assuming that
;no big story Will break in the interval before New Year's
'day. The fallacy of making any such assumption" is evident
in the fact that No. 1 story on the Kendrick list and No. 2
atory on the Brooks list is the Rogers-Post crash; in Alaska,
an unpredictable event, a parallel to which might occur at
any moment.
Readers may be interested in the evaluations made by
these men who daily handle the news of the world.
Kendrick list:
1. Rogers-Post crash.
2. Trial and conviction of
Haaptmann.
3. Huey Long assassination.
4. Economic improveme n t
and court attacks on "New
DeaJ."
5. Italo-Ethiopian war.

quent effort at rebuilding culminating in the special session
of the legislature ; -sale of control of the pioneer Ladd &
Bush bank; launching of building program including post
office and school buildings; acquisition of water system by
city.
Teachers to Meet
A program of unusual merit seems to be in store for the
teachers of Oregon who attend the 36th annual conven
tion in Portland. Chancellor Frederick M. Hunter will
give an address Friday morning on "The American Pattern."
Dr. Hunter can meet public school teachers on familiar
ground,; because he was for many years a city school super
intendent. Many Oregon superintendents became acquaint
ed with him while he was located in Oakland. Others sched
uled to appear are Dr. F. J. Kelly, chief of the division of
higher education, Washington who is known here as the head
of the survey commission for Oregon's higher educational
system in 1930 ; Dr. Grayson N. Kef auver, dean of the Stan
ford school of education ; City Superintendent Edwin A. Lee
of San Francisco.
Teachers attend these conventions at their own time
and expense, in a desire to develop themselves profession
ally. The contacts they.find stimulating. Though they may
bring few specific things for practical use they usually are
well repaid in finding out educational trends and in associat
ing with leaders in the profession.
Romantic
AN advertisement for a springs resort in southern Cali
fornia, emphasizes: "Carefree days; romantic nights;"
also golf, tennis, riding and swimming, along with steam
caves and mud baths. Thus is "talcing the cure" made a gen
uine holiday. One wonders if after a strenuous course at
such a health, resort the patron' must not go home to take
another cure by resting. -
There is one word the world has, borrowed from the
movies, that is "glamour." Spell it with the "u" please, the
English way; It has a color of meaning all its own. There
is no doubt of its popularity. Glamour is what all the world
is seeking. Some get it by absorption through attending the
movies, for example. Others get it by participating through
a session at Palm Springs or some other swell resort.
Glamour may be what our Oregon country lacks. We
have failed at our mineral springs and other resorts to put
in enough "carefree days" and "romantic nights." Life here
is much too orderly. But what fine qualities would go out if
Hollywood" "glamour" came in. :

bunk than any
other In the whole lexicon of poli
tics; that it is the inevitable de
signation of every shoddy scheme
for the "salvation of the country"
and is mouthed by all the political
mountebanks and frauds as the
indispenslble tag for their wares.
However, up to date, the word
continues to confuse the credu
lous and is accepted by many as a
substitute for logic, tolerance,
fairness, common sense and, not
infrequently, common honesty.
HARDLY a week passes without
some more or less conspicuous
person twanging away on the Lib
eral string. The romantic and pol
ished Professor Tugwell, in his ar
ticles and addresses, is almost ly
rical about the "Liberals," speak
ing with horror and loathing of
those not of that persuasion. Gen
eral Johnson, the once proud
keeper of the defunct Blue Eagle,
lecturing in the West, inelegant
ly referred to Dr. Tugwell as a
"marcelled ass," but indorsed the
Tugwellian idea that the country
should be in the hands of the
"Liberals."
A GROUP of patriotic and unsel
fish labor leaders publicly call
upon Mr. Roosevelt to name only
"Liberals" to the Federal Bench,
and that great political idealist.
Mr. James Farley, loudly bellows
that this is a "Liberal" Adminis
tration. All the New Deal press
agents praise the President as a
Liberal." One of the ablest and
most likeable of the professional.
Liberals is Mr. Borah, who a few
days ago, with deep solemnity, de
clared himself willing to become
a Presidential candidate, solely
because of the necessity of "Lib
eralizing" the Republican party
and compelling It to nominate a
"Liberal." It is difficult to know
what Mr. Borah means by that. He
can orate eloquently about It-
but he can't be concrete or at
least he never is. Representative
Hamilton Fish, of New York, is
another great "Liberal" whose
heart is attuned to that of Borah;
Mr. Gerald Nye, the Great Snoop
ing Senator from North Dakota, is
another. The La Follette brothers
in Wisconsin are a couple of oth

Dirk an his parents staved with
Helen until the boat sailed at noon.
They were sitting chatting in the

her mouth watered for the rare

amiably cursed it.

Fain Is not always present In sinus

Sinusitis should never be allowed to
become chronic. Sometimes nasal

severe cases surgical measures may
become necessary.
Since colds and infections of other
parts of the . breathing machinery
promote sinusitis, it Is Important to
give prompt attention to every such
ailment, to head off trouble In the
nasal sinuses. To this end avoid
those persons who have colds and
coughs. If possible keep away from

Improve your resistance asrainst

of fresh air and sunlight, adequate
hours of sleep and rest, as well as a
moderate amount of exercise every

These are rich in vitamins and other
valuable food substances. They help
to ward off colds, coughs, sinusitis
and other infections.
