The farmers’ ability to buy will be improved by the fact that, in response to bankers’ urgings, they have re duced their debts during the last year. The outlook is exceedingly favorable for a year o f good busi ness, and it will begin as soon as the selling o f wheat gets well under w ay.” The same thing applies to Oregon, where the wheat crop is the largest ever. One writer says the people o f this country have got into the habit o f legislating for every thing. I f business is dull, they imagine that all they have got to do to make good times, is to pass a new law. And this habit has grown on the public, until our law books are loaded down with a lot o f laws that mean nothing, have a bearing on nothing, and only tend to confuse. I f the next legislature would bunch about a thousand o f these fool acts and repeal them by the bunch, they will be erecting a monument to their memory in the minds o f a much befuddled people. TO ORGANIZE FARMERS’ FRUIT SELLING AGENCY On Saturday, June 20, repre sentatives o f fru itgro w ers’ asso ciations at Forest Grove, Dilley, Corvallis, Eugene, Sutherlin, Yoncalla, Cottage Grove, Dallas, Salem, Brownsville, Independ ence, Gresham, Monmouth, New- berg, Springfield and Roseburg will attend a meeting to be held in the Green Parlor o f the Port land Commercial Club for the purpose o f organizing a sub-cen tral branch o f the North Pacific Fruit Distributors, will elect one member o f the board o f managers for the Spokane show and will complete the details o f a campaign for marketing the 1914 crop o f fruit in Western Oregon. Mr. H. C. Sampson, secretary o f the N. P. F. D., who is direct ing this movement, said: " B r ie f ly stated, the distributor in this case will l>e the farm er himself in the selling game. It is purely co-operative. The organization will sell on a commission o f 10 cents per box, which is sufficient to pay the expenses o f salaried agents in all parts o f the world and o f 67 special representatives. Through these agents we distrib ute the fruit to all parts o f the world, keeping markets fully sup plied, but never overloaded. ” DIFFERENT I tt-hv?

Antiquity of Death Masks. Although there is no mention of death masks in the works of Homer or in any of the later classics, modern ex- ' plorers have satisfied themselves that in the early burials of all nations It was the custom to cover the heads and bodies of the dead with sheets of gold so pliable that they took the Impress of the form, and uot Infrequently, when In the course o f centuries the embalmed flesh had shriveled or fa ll en away, the gold retained the exact cast o f the features. Schliemann foitud a number of bodies “ covered with large masks o f gold plate In repousse work,” several of which have been re- produced by means of engraving In his ••Mycenae.” and he asserts that there can be no doubt whatever that each one o f these represents the likeness of the deceased person whose fuce It cov ered.
