tribute them to the people as they
get off the trains. Cou'd it be possible
to awaken Independence people to the
urgency of this work this commu
nity could gather in a good share of
the easterners who will come west to
make their home in some locality of
Oregon. A man to meet the trains
and talk Independence and distribute
literature is all that is necessary
Let's get busy.
The different Fair Associations of
Oregon are co-operating for.i splendid
display of products and great showing
of live stock at the fall show in Port
land, with the best races ever held in
the state. All this has its part in the
development of the state, by creating
such an interest in live stock pro
duction as will mean an ample supply
for the support of the great packing
plants now under construction in
Portland. With the establishment,
of8uch extensive packing interests
will come the demand for better class
of live stock. That is to say, it will,
in a sense, see the passing of scrub
grades gradually breeding up to pure
strain and registered. Portland is
undoubtedly to become one of the
greatest packing centers of the United
States.

With the approach of harvest time
and an enormous crop of wheat in

distress of the financial panic of a
year ago. All of $80,000,000 worth of
wheat will come-to Portland this fall.

Vigorous protest was entered by
the commercial interests of Oregon
and the Oregon State Dairy Associa
tion, against the adoption by the Pure
Food Conference at Mackinac Island
Michigan, of a standard for evaporated
milk reouirine 28 per cent solids
Oregon's milk is rich in butter fat
owing to our climatic conditions, but
abundant pasture means less solids
than in milk from cows fed eight
months in the year. Oregon dairy
mei and condensers insist that solids
should le such as result from the use
of w hole milk in their product.
The good roads conference which
the West Side Enterprise has boosted
for so hard during the last month took
place in the Portland Commercial
Club rooms Tuesday, and it is reported
to have been a most representative
gathering. Permanent organization
was effected and much good legisla
tion agreed upon. The conference was
under the auspices of the Oregon
Development League. Many nearby
prominent people were preseut on the
occasion of the conference.
Considerable improving in the rut-i-
dence section of the city is in progress
in different parts of the town. There
is one new house being built and an
addition is being built to another
while any number of houses have been
repainted. Yes, Independence is pros
perous. Une ttung, it is me oesv to n

streak at fourteen is quite likely to be
termed shiftless and Improvident when
he becomes a man. It Is a trait that
should by all means be discouraged, for
the tendencies which develop during
these early years have a way of per
sisting and staying with the boy.
