TUESDAY, OCTOBER 20 IS
APPLE DAY IN OREGON
-.'A-
x
Arri.ix wii.i. nr.t iiirr autum:
tI' Dll-T Ili:ilK AT THAT
DATK
Tuesday, October 20, Is Apple Day
In lregon.
On that day apples will be the chief
article of diet and the man and wom
an who have the bem Interexts of tho
Mate at heart will not only eat apples
then but .will also buy somo for future
use.
Jimt as the European war hnn cut
off the foreign market of tho cotton
grower of the south It ho put up the
bar to the exportation of Oregon ap
ple and tHo growers of this state will
Buffer a Kreat blow unless some sub
stitute market can be found for their
surplus products. It la to this end that
the mildness men of the state have
Joined hands to give them some relief.
Instead of appealing to the whole
country to, come to the aid of the
Oregon apple grower, they are appeal
ing to the cltlstons of the state to ab
sorb the surplus by Increased con
sumption. Iocal business men this morning
received letters from the I'ortland
committee asking them to aid In the
movement by making displays of ap
ples on next Tuesday. This will be
done, even the banks making displays
In their places of business.
Tho apple growers of the Hood
I'iver. ltogue River ond Mllton-Free-water
sections of the state, have been
hard hit by the war and their Industry
will suffer greatly unless they enn dis
pose of their full crop at reasonable
prices. With Dr. Harvey W. Wiley's
maxim "An apple a day keeps the
doctor away" na a guide, the business
men are asking everybody to eat more
home-grown apples.
Tuesday Is not only Apple Pay In
Oregon but all over the nation as well
but each state Is looking only after
its own campaign.

Their battle with the Russians in
the vicinity of Warsaw waa describ

was honest In reporting- to Berlin

the Germans followed up their sup

This coup was said to have decid

and leaving a number of guns behind
aj well as quantities of ammunition.

LONDON. Oct. 17 The energy
with which the war office is rushing
equipment to army recruits left no
doubt today that another expedition

The principal difficulty heretofore
has been the dearth of supplle.

Gun and ammunition plants have
been running on a It hour schedule.
