Over n.l.SOO.OOO Mont Animals Slaugh tered Annually In Vnlted States. Secretary Wilson of the department of agriculture, In his report for 1906. which has Just been Issued, gives some Interesting figures on the meat busi ness of the United Stntes. In the last census year, 1900. 93, 502,000 meat animals were slaughter ed and exported. "Every tlmo the clock ticks a second during 10 hours of a workday, tho farmer drives nine meat animals to the butcher." The meat production tn pounds attains such numbers that they may be better understood If reduced to the average of a private family according to the census, 4.6 persons. To each family In 1900 the farmer supplied 1014 pounds of meat and then had one-eighth tf his supply left over for the foreigner. It Is upon the selling of this surplus In foreign countries that the farmer depends for the maintenance of profitable prices for his meat animals. As a meat pro ducer the Importance of the-hog ap pears In these statements. The meat of hogs, including lard, produced In MOO exceeded the weight of veal and beef by one-half billion pounds and was over- eight times more than the weight of.' the lamb and mutton. In a single state, Iowa, the production for 1906 was equivalent In pounds to nearly the entire exports of the meat of swine In 1900. Mean contributes one-third or more of the total assimilated nutrients of the national' dietary, and at average meat prices and' with the meat consumption of 1900 the national retail meat bill that year exceeded J2, 000,000,000. Every Increase of one-fourth of a cent per pound in the national average re tall price of meat raises the total yearly expense to consumers by $41,- 883,009i. OREGON'S OLDEST PIONEER. B. Reers Came to the- Young Territory in 1836. To B. Beers, of Independence, prob ably falls the honor of being the old est pioneer living In the state of Or egon, says the Dallas Itemlzer. Mr. Beers was the ordest pioneer present at the last pioneers' state meeting, al though at that time there lived in the state one- lady pioneer who was two years his senior, being a pioneer of 1831, but she has since died. Mr. Beers was born November 5, 1823. In 1836 his father and family started- for Oregon by water, coming by Cape Horn, the trip requiring 140 days to the Sandwich Islands, and en countering many, many difficulties. They remained on the islands three months, awaiting, an opportunity to c-mie on to this coast, and arrived here in 1S37. The father came as a farmer and blacksmith for the Metho dist mission .located at that time 10 miles below Salem on the Willamette river. It. Beers, the subject of this sketch being one of three children, attended the mission school with the Indian scholars, and later attended the Salem schools. He was married May 2, 1860, to Miss Eliza P. Smith, four children being born to them, two sons and two daughters. Tho daughters are both dead, but the sons are living. Hjis wife died in February, 1878. Mr. Beers spent several years on the Yaqulna river, and has since lived in different places, having spent the last two years In Independence. He en Joys good health, and his activity would be an Inspiration to men 20 years his Junler. Alanson Beers, father of the sub ject of this sketch, Joseph Gale and John 1. Hill, were the members of the first executive committee of Ore gon territory, having been elected by the people in 184 3. To Deliver Memorial Address. Judge S. A.

Will the meeting of the commercial bodies of the state, which is to be held at Eugene on December 6. take up for consideration the matter of a Jute - ,, SmTi i .1 V.

It Is hoped that some definite ac - tlon will be taken by the meeting in tho m9ttpn nr oti,H.hin . I km? I t A I G m rwiron Z1?" M "ascline Engine and grain bag trust is as burdensome on the people as the car shortage or the demurrage charges or any other prev alent abuses which need remedying. T'mntilla nnd Morrow counties alor.: con;-.i'.juted J90.000 in unjust profits to the Jute bag trust this sea son In the purchase of 3,000.000 grain bags, and for this reason the people of this section of the state hope to see some definite movement made by commercial associations, commercial conventions, farmers' Institutes, grange meetings and in every other possible way, to urge the legislature to pass a Jute plant bill, Umatilla and Morrow counties used 3.000.000 sacks this season for which they paid an average of 10 cents, or $300,000. Across the line in Wash ington the same sacks sold by the state of't0arl of control at 6V4 cents, or a grand total, counting cost of dlstrlbu tlon and delivery, of 7 cents each, or $210,000 for 3,000.000 sacks. The state of Washington cleared almost one cent each after selling at 6 V4 cents, while the Jute trust charged Oregon people 10 cents. Washington paid $210,000 and Oregon $300,000 for the same "number of grain sacks. Umatilla and Morrow county farmers were thus robbed of $90,000 by some body. A number of prominent citizens, legislators and farmers from eastern Oregon will attend the Eugene meet ing and It is thought that some defin ite action on the Jute plant may be secured. A Jute plant can be established for less than $200,000 It Is thought. The amount saved in Umatilla and Mor row counties alone in two or three ! years would Install the plant, Old Clothes and Shoes Wanted. The Salvation Army can use a lot of old clothes and shoes In supplying several families which- are in need during the cold weather. Anyone ! having cast-off clothing pr shoes wnicn tney wish to contribute, may call up the Salvation Army head quarters and a member will call for the articles. A number of families are being assisted by the local corps this winter. MONEY TO LOAN ON IMPROVED FARMS. Liberal terms to the borrower. Long time loans If desired.. Annnal Inter est.. No commission.
