' ' A number of corporations have not or ganized for the transaction of business alter filing their articles, and they claim ex-mution from the anuual license fee until Buch a time ax they shall organize for bnsiuese.

Dr James Withycombe Writes Interestingly in Rural Spirit. Nature has lavishly bestowed her best gifts to, Oregon. Her mountains are rich in mineral wealth and are clothed in the finest forests found on the conti nent, yet her greatest" source of wealth rests in her undeveloped agriculture Oregon with her 96,030 square - miles ot area em braces a wealth of rich soil, which when oroDerlv utilized will support in luxury millions of our citizens. ;. The topography of the state is responsible for a wide variation in climate and soil. The two grand physical divisions are each characterized by dis tinctive features in agriculture. In the Eastern division condi tions are exceptionally favorable for grain and stock growing. The Columbia river basin at present is famous for its wheat production. It will in the future be equally as noted for its im mense output of live stock. Agri culture in this section will grad ually change to systems of gen eral farming. This will be made necessary for the maintenance of soil fertility. Under : such -conditions of farming the wealth of agriculture will be greatly ac celerated. Exclusive grain grow ing is usually of short duration in any section. The soil must have some means for its recuper ation. Thus animal husbandry in some form is the only solution to the problem of . permanently successful farmiug in any grain growing community. - The most optimistic mind can scarcely conceive the magnitude of the possible V development of agriculture in the Inland Empire. Within the next , decade tens of thousands of acres . will be re claimed by irrigation This will mean the production of an im mense amount of stock food. In stead of cattle ranging on a thousand hills they : will be found in the future on ten thous and modern farms.' Animal hus bandry is the basis of successful farming.'.;. .oy,..;-.' :- The great problem, of immed iate interest to the stoclc industry of this state is that of markets! Wi hout attractive markets aie developed within the near , future the stock industry , will suffer a severe handicap. It would seem as it the business interest of Port land should be ; aroused from its apparent indifference and take an active interest " in -the develop ment of good markets for live stock. ,It cannot be expected that the local consumption will keep pace ' with? the output for several decades, hence outside markets must be secured. This will mean the establishment of 'modern packing houses for the economical distribution of the meat products of this state. The markets of the Orient, Alaska and the Pacific Coast as far. south as Central . America should be invaded so as to find , outlets of sufficient magnitude - to absorb the great increase of meat pro ducts designed ; to materialize in the Inland Empire. Not . only will this increased output be made possible by irrigation, bat the great grain producing dis tricts of -the Columbia River basjn will also contribute their quota. Exclusive wheat growing in these sections will be "supplanted, in a large measure by animal hus bandary. ; "' Alfalfa,; peas, rape, and vetch will be produced as rotation crops with the cereals in this section. This will mean the feeding of great - numbers oi stock where but few are produced at present. Sheep husbandry will also as sume a somewhat 'different as pect. Wool will be made largely incidental to mutton . production. The grain farmer Will be feed ing large numbers on ; the forage crops grown for the purpose of replenishing h his wheat land. This will mean a large produc tion of mutton under more strict ly farm conditions. Instead of the great bulk of the range . sheep being ' forwarded, to the , corn growing states they will be finish ed On the wheat fields of Eastern Oregon. ' Cattle and hogs will also enter largely into the scheme of this new system of Husbandry. This will mean the elevating of agriculture iif the Inland Empire to a higher plane of stability. Agriculture1 ty be effective ! and permanent, must include animal husbandry. This is indispen sable for the maintenance of soil fertility. Our farmers should banish the erroneous idea of the inexhaustibility ol their farms. The great progress in agricul ture in Western Or gon will be along the lines of dairying and stock breeding. This section is ideal for the establishment 01 small farms. Thus sooner or later this section of the state will be noted for its number ol small farms. Here conditions are favorable for the production of the highest class of domestic animals. Thus in addition to a great development in dairying many stud flocks and . herds will be established which will char acterize Western Oregon a one of the greatest fine stock breed ing centers of the continents Truly there is a great future for agriculture in this state. Our commonwealth is richly endowed with natural resources but the great wealth of Oregon rests in tht- devtlopmeni of her agricul- NEW W0MExVi3CLTJBS. OWING TO AMERICANS GEB 3SIANY NOW HAS A NTTMBEB. From Modest Beginning Two in, Ber , lin Have. Acquired Iiarge Membership and " " "... Prestige. - - Berlin. Germany , will never be a country of clubs in the English and American acceptation of the term, and it Is small wonder that German women have been among the last to establish clubs for themselves. To American women belongs the dis tinction of having established the first woman's club in Germany, in 1895. This clu5 was organized for the purpose of benefiting girl students by opening to them a house where they could hear their own language, , have access to American books, newspapers and mag azines, and 'above all receive advice and sympathy to help them along the unfamiliar ways of life in a foreign City.; : :!-:: From a very modest. beginning the American woman's club has grown to iie one of the most important organiza tions of its kind on the continent -Although possessed of no great capi tal, the organization is self-supporting, any deficit being made up by a bazar or entertainment : In tne winter a re ception is given once a mpnt, and musicales or lectures are- frequently held. The "club owes much' of Its lit erary activity to the efforts of Mrs. Andrew D. White,1 wife of the former ambassador to Germany, who- auring her residence in" Berlin,, was president of ; the organization. The present president is Mrs. Charlemagne Tower, wife of the ambassador, .and the .vice president is Mrs. Fran , H. Mason, wife of the United States consul gen eral." .' ' ' The membership as a whole is vari able, but averages between 400 and 500 a year.- '1 he fees are ten marks and five marks, the last ', for students. Classes in German and French open to members are 50 pfennigs a lesson. A charge of 50 pfennigs for a guest to the reception is made, this idea having been borrowed from the practical Ger man. ; - .... : Three years after the American Woman's club was organized the De'ltscher Frauenkluh name iTit- o-r- Listence, being founded by the wealthi est and most influential' women in Berlin. This is preeminently the smart club of Germany .and counts among its members and supporters one ' royal princess and two or three excellencies and ladies in waiting at the German court. Marie von Luyden is the presi dent..; Once a year this club , opens its doors to strangers, when, a large re ception is given, to which members are permitted 0 invite husbands or broth ers or friends. This is the only oc casion upon which men are allowed to enter the house. - After this clubwas well established it was decided that its fees were high for professional and ; self-supporting women, and a second club was organ ized. These two, the . Deutscher Frauenklub and the Frauenklub von 1900, which are in no way rivals, are situated next door to. each other. The second club has a membership of 1,100. The annual fee is six marks, and the restaurant prices are correspondingly moderate. The club offers business opportunities to its members and or ganizes sales for their work. The president is Fraulein Dr. Tibertins, one or the best known of the woman physi cians in Berlin. ' The, Hanover Woman's club, estab lished in 1900, is the youngest in Ger many. It combines the characteristic features of the ten Berlin clubs, offer ing social entertainment to the woman of leisure and assistance to the pro-' fessional woman. 1 . With these four the list of woman's clubs in Germany Is made up, unless one may Include the many working women's clubs in Dresden and Berlin and the - Young Women's Christian association, established in Berlin a year ago. - . - , : ' ' ..
