Wlio has not traversed the silence of tho winding forest road and
felt the wcomenon of it enchanting nolittxlo ban missed one of the de
lights of Western life, Groat expanse of pine, fir, sprue and hemlock
extend on either side tho way, into whose dense growth the eye pene
trates hut a few yard. The whirr of the partridge and the wift flight
of the deer rouso one from bit reverie; the soughing of the wind in the
tree topi sounds it accompaniment to the harmony of hi silent thought.
A audden turn in the road bring up new wonder of the virgin solitude,
while here and there a louoly cabin announce the settler, tho pathfinder
in tho wildernea. Ittiilt of aturdy log, nuture'a own untainted build
lug material, rising but a single story and boasting but a aingle room, the
cabin of the settlor atarid as the reminder of the heroism of thoie of for
mer year who blazed the trail we now are following. The hosiptality
of the cabin i typical of the forerunner of settlement. Here, perhaps,
will rise, in the distant future, a city. One never can tell. Ferhape the
stream just above will one day be harnessed and its power be used to sup
ply unborn genera tiona. with light, power and beat. Who can aay that
the trail blared by the men of long ago shall not lead future genera
tions to heights of achievement not dreamed of today f For the forest
road ha no end. It loads on and on into the great boundless wealth of
timber, adding now wonders and beauties as it goes, ao that the traveler

Donatelli (Dinetella).
Chop very fine about 5 slices of
bacon, fry until the grease i well
out, add a little olive oil, 1 large
onion and 5 sections of garlic. Fry
until well done. Add 4 green peppers,
parsley and Italian dried mushrooms
chopped fine, 1 can of tomatoes of
ordinary aire. Add aalt, black pepper
and paprika to suit taste. Cook mix
tors 1V6 hours. If It becomes too dry
add water or stock aoup. Stir well to
keep from burning, about half an hour
before H baa finished cooking place
2 pounds of donatelli in a pot of
salted boiling water and cook until
well done; when done add the mixture
in a frying pan and butter the size
of a walnut, or egg, or use cream.
Boil Ive minutes. Have already pre
pared some grated Holland or Italian
cheese. Place a layer of donatelli in a
, pan similar to a milk pan, then
sprinkle with choose and black pep
per. Add layers of donatelli and cheese
until pan is full, sprinkle over eon
siderable cheese and bake 80 min
utes. Instead of using water to boil
donatelli, the stock from soup bone,
veal or chicken can be used and is
better. If desired some meat san be
chopped fine and sprinkled over ibe
cheese, except On the top layer. See
that there is plenty of juice oa the
donatelli. Gravies from meats can be
spread over the top before ' baking.

The electrification of the Mt. Hood
Itailway, one of the branch line of the
Portland Railway, Light & Fower Co.,
will be commenced at once and it is
expected that by summer trains over
this lino will be operated by electricity
instead of by steam, as at present. The
line is 23 miles in length, reaching from
Montavilla to Bull Run. Its electrifi
cation will cost about (175,000.
That the world at least the me
chaoival world may one day be con
trolled and operated through the
agency of slips of perforated paper
is asserted in tho editorial depart
incut entitled "Looking Forward" in
Cannier 'a Magazine. Control of ma
chinery by perforated paper was first
devised and introduced by Joseph
Marie Jacquard about a century ago,
in the loom that bear his name. In
the Jacquard loom perforated card
control the movements so that pre'
determined patterns are woven, in
dependently of the skill of the imme
diate operator. More recently, the
principlo has been widely used in me
chanlcal musical-Instrument player,
to which it was first applied about
forty year ago. It has been em
ployed also in the monotype machine,
in telegraph system and in less fa
miliar connections, and we are told
that the possibilities of the device
are far-reaching, especially since the
introduction of electricity has made
it possiblo to extend this kind of con
trol over distant apparatus. The
writer of the article in Cassier's bids
u look forward to the working of
all sort of machine tools; and even to
tho control and operation of railway
train by a similar system. We read:
"The entire modern tendency in
mechanical operations appears, not
only in the substitution of machinery
for manual operation wherever pos
sible, but also in the planning of the
manipulation by others than those by
whom the work is done. The use of
planning departments, functional fore
men, instruction cards, and similar
preliminaries to the actual perform
ance of the work,' is being generally
discussed and occasionally applied;
but with the exception of certain
forms of tabulating machines and
typesetters, and of such devices a
moving electrical signs, there seem
to be little employment made of the
most complete method of recording
and controlling movements that of
a piece of perforated paper.
"It eeema entirely within reason
to state that no machining operation
is ao complicated or involves to many
movements, so variously timed, as ap
pears in the performance of even a
simple musical composition by a me
chanical piano-player; and when we
consider the accuracy ' and effective
nee with which the most elaborate
compositions are rendered by such
machines tb applicability of the
method to repetition processes in man
ufacturing; Seems worthy of consid
eration. ...
'The number of operations which
may be controlled for any one ma
chine is by no means limited, any
more than the number of different

The rnggedness of the Oregon coast presents many a picturesque scene when the incoming billows dash' and
foam over jutting crags and half-submerged rocks. Here the clam digger finds the rarest sport and the agate
hunter is lured on and on after the receding breaker in search of rarest stones. The above scene gives a view
of an incoming sea breaking in fine ray over the rocks. In the distance is an old government lighthouse, set
there year ago to warn the passing steamer of the nearness of dangerous rocks. The scene i typical of the West

any paino equipped for use with the
perforated roll. . . . The unlim
ited possibilities of the Jacquard prin
ciplo over any other thus constitutes
one of its greatest advantages. Any
change or modification in a series of
operations with the paper strip may
bo made simply bf preparing a differ
ent aet of perforations, just as one
written order of instruction super
sedes another; and thus it appear
that a form of control in which in

with their execution is available for
the most intricate manufacturing operation."
Buttermilk Yeast.
One quart of buttermilk, boil about
two or three minutes, pour about 1
pints of gill over 1 pint of sifted
meal, or pour enough buttermilk over
tho meal to make it about like corn
cake batter, stirring all the time
you are pouring the hot buttermilk
over the meal. Put in cup 1 cake of
yeast, or cup of crimmed yeast.
Cover withlukewarm water. Let soak
until meal and buttermilk cools. Then
add yeast, keep in warm place. Let
it set until blubbers will raise thick
on top, then stir it every time they
raise. Stir about 20 times. Stir enough
sifted meal in it to make it dry
enough to crumble. Put on board to
dry, allowing same to get thor

and tie securely. Half cup of yeast to

The Stenographer's Inning.
On a trial in a certain eourt in this
state, says Law Notes, when the wit
ness on the stand was being subjected
to a merciless cross-examination, in
answering one question the witness
nodded. Whereupon the court stenog
rapher, who was crowding the limit to
get it all and could not see the witness,
at onre demanded:
"Answer that question," to which
the witness replied:
"I did answer it; I nodded my
head."
The stenographer, without a mo
ment's hesitation came right back
with, "Well, I beard it rattle, but
could not tell whether it was up and
down or from side to side."

Solving the
Problem fc
of a For ALL on the Coast
For years, the cry has been, here on the coast, "BUY A FAEM OE ACEEAGE, AND YOU'LL MAKE A GOOD, EASY LIVING."
In a measure, this is true. But the fact remains, that to get the most out of a farm or piece of land, or out of a store, or whatever other profession or business we may be in, THEEE MUST BE SOMEONE WHO WILL BUY
THOSE THINGS WE HAVE TO SELL.
The man who buys these things is practically always the man who cannot produce them himself.
Here In the West, we need more men who are engaged In manufacturing enterprises men who work in mills and shops. These men and their families need all such things as are now produced on the coast and must buy them
of those nearby who produce them.
It is plain, therefore, that to reap the greatest amount of good from the business in which we are engaged, THIS BIG WESTERN COUNTRY MUST BE MORE PERFECTLY BALANCED IN THE LINES OF BUSINESS IN
WHICH ITS INHABITANTS ARE ENGAGED.
Did you ever stop to think
That only a very small part of the manufactured goods that we buy every day
of our live are made here on the coast f
The people who should be using those things which we produce are not living
near us. Just think what it would mean to the small farm owners alone if most
of tho furniture, cerenl foods, clothes, etc., which they buy were made right
here at home by men who, in turn, were buying thoir vegetables, butter, eggs, etcf
Think of the advantage to every man, woman and child who now lives here if,
with mills and factories located along our rivers and in our cities, large and
small, thousands upon thousands of families were living here employed in these
mills! The result would not only be a better market for what is now produced,
but a better price on those manufactured articles which we are buying every day.
Instead of paying for high transportation rates from the East, the raw mate
rials would be manufactured into the finished product and sold right here at home.
It is plain that what we need is more and larger manufacturing institutions.
The result in increased prices for what we produce and cheaper prices on the
manufactured goods we have to buy is sure to follow.

Prosperity Problem Solved
The question is, "How can we get to that state t"
The answer is simple.
We, ourselves, are responsible for the present condition for the shortage in
mills and factories.
We are to blame because there are not right now thousands upon thousands of
families drawing good weekly pay envelopes, enabling them to put a large amount
of money into circulation among us. It is our own fault that wo have to pay
excessive prices for many articles. It is our own fault that we send our raw
products East to be made up, then bring them back here and pay Eastern fac
tories and Eastern cities to make what we ought to have made right here.
The factories on the coast are anxious to go ahead to enlarge, to employ thou
sands more of men. But the territory in which they can sell their output is
limited to this coast alone, in almost every case. They cannot compete with
big Eastern manufacturers. They cannot sell in the Eastern markets. In many
cases, they have not the large amount of capital to advertise extensively, even
in this, their home territory. They cannot go into the papers and magazines and
convince you that the goods they make are as good if not better, as cheap if
not cheaper for you to buy, as Eastern made goods.
We know it is the desire of almost every family on the coast to boost for coast made goods, because it helps every family living here. It means better times, more money for everyone, better property values and increased
prosperity if we can make our own manufactured articles from our own raw prqducts and keep the money circulating among ourselves.
In the past, however, it has been impossible for us to know the Pacific Coast made products. We could not ordinarily tell whether what we wanted was made on the coast. To let everyone know plainly, in advance, whether a
product is made on the const, manufacturers are now uniting and using the stamp which is shown here to designate a coast made article. Whatever you wish to purchase, ask for such an article bearing this stamp. Almost
everything you can think of that you may need is made on the coast and made well. If you boost for it, the result will be that such factories making such products can grow, can give work to more peoplp; can help YOU to
better times.
Better Living Conditions for All
Show this article to your friends. Tell them what it means to everyone on the coast. Explain to them how
it means money in their pockets if they will Demand this stamp on every article they buy.
Ask your dealer to show you this stamp on the goods he wants to sell you. Remember, every time you
insist on an article bearing this stamp, you are helping several Pacific Coast families Your Own, and all
those interested in that product.
DEALERS: Ask your jobbers to supply you with goods bearing the Pacific Coast Products Stamp. Your
customers will be asking for them.
