"With or without offense to friends or foe 1 sketch your world exactly as it goes." Byron For Oregon Products A hundred manufacturers, distributers and retailers are expected to attend the meeting called for tomorrow by Governor Meier to stimulate Oregon industries and Oregon business. The executive will outline a program to increase the turnover for Oregon business by demand and use of Ore gon products. The effort, which is a continuation of the campaign long . conducted by the manufacturers, by the Greater Oregon as- sociation and other organizations, is most commendable, but ' its success lies largely with the consumer, though of course jobber and retail cooperation will aid. If the spirit of loyal ty to Oregon could be instilled in the public, selling as well as buying, as the California spirit has been in the golden state, Oregon industry would be immensely stimulated, pay rolls increased and the balance of trade turned in the state s favor. The average merchant, whether running a department store, a cnain group or independent store naturally buys where and what he can buy cheapest and sells what he can make most profit on. Only consumer demand forces the carrying of other than the most profitable goods. This consumer demand can be and is stimulated by advertising, but the small manufacturer is necessarily handicapped by lack of production volume and frequently neglects to create demand by this most available method. ' The great chains and also the cooperative buying as sociations of independents, depend for profits upon quantity purchases, mass selling and extensive advertising. They save in commissions, in freight rates and handling charges. By contracting for the entire output of factories, they secure prices the average Oregon manufacturer cannot meet, and they force the sales of these more profitable articles. The consumer demand compels the carrying of other stocks, but they must be specified by the buyer, else they remain on the shelves. If the department stores, the jobbers and the chains would place quantity orders with Oregon industries as they do with eastern concerns, they would not only secure su perior goods and lower prices but find it profitable to push Oregon made commodities. If in addition local pride can be aroused to stimulate consumer demand, the problem would be solved. There is no one in better position to push the campaign for Oregon products, than Governor Meier, the biggest mer ehandise buyer in the state. He can set an example for the rest to. follow if he so desires. Earwig Futility The biggest fizzle yet recorded by our costly bureau of entomology and agricultural experiment stations is tnetr futile attempt to control the earwig. In the decade since the nests appeared, they have excessively multiplied and now overrun the northwest despite systematic campaigns costing hundreds of thousands of dollars to hold them in cheoK and bevond passing alonir formulas concocted by the federal de partment of agriculture and advising additional costly poison campaigns, hitherto ineffective, the bugologists seem neip' less. Some years aito the standard earwig poison of bran. sodium fluoride and water, recommended by the Oregon state college was extensively applied, with the result that the earwigs grew fatter Bnd more numerous and evidently thrived on the diet. Then the Seattle formula of Paris green was oriven a trial, with similar results. Now the federal ex- perts have concocted a new formula, consisting of 12 pounds of bran, 1 pound of sodium fluosilicate and 1 quart of fish oil, which is recommended as more attractive bait and more deadly to the earwig. The objection to spreading poison in any form is appar ent. If not fatal to earwiirs. it kills many song and game birds as well as poultry, natural enemies of the earwig, rab bits and even dogs and cats, ana is imeiy to oe iatai to nine children. But there is hope that nature will assert its balance as customary, ere long, birds, sucn as roooins, nave aiscov wl the earwig: a delicacy and can be seen feeding them to their voune as substitutes for earthworms. Even the disJ ninpri Kntrlish snnrrow is learning to like them. The insecti- ary pests that hold them in check in Europe are multiplying and will soon take their deadly toll. In the meantime the only places free from earwigs are those with a few chickens about preferably in tne city, Daniams. uncus aiso are ear- . wig eliminators. Rank Ingratitude Dr. Clarence True Wilson, secretary of the Methodist board of temperance, prohibition and public morals, and na tional dry leader, declares that President Hoover is a "bitter disappointment" to the prohibitionists wno lane crenn tor his election. He declares: "Hoover is timid; the country re quires courage. Hoover is slow to act; conditions require speed." Assailing the president's practice of appointing fact finding commissions, Wilson says: "It takes a year or so for the commission to report and by that time it is too late ... .a t ,i j: n. to do anything, or ne promptly rejects ineir liuuing.i. i - tically every member of all his commissions is disgusted ! with him." After all that Mr, Hoover lias done for the prohibition ists, even to perverting tne adverse inuiings oi tne wiener ham commission into a favorable dry report, this is rank In- trrntitnde but it is typical of the fanatical drys. No one 'can suit them, no matter how much he plays the hypocrite If . Itnnxraf hna ftnoH tlm ltttA fni them nil till WAV thmilffVl obeyed their orders, advocated more stringent laws, and given them all tne millions oi ptiuuc money a., irue, ne hasn't called out the marines, as Dr. Wilson advocated, but he has provided them a good sized army and the fifth largest navy in the world. Yet Dr. Wilson announces that the drys will support Mi. Hoover against any wet democrat, so Hoover should worry.
