In yesterday morning's ReRister
there was a little story relating Uw
fact that contracts for the new plant
of the Eugene Farmer's creamery hare
just been let This Is a local Institu
tlon, locally managed and localty
flnanced. The new plant la made pos
sible because the people of this com

Industry's f ntnre to Invest their money
in Its securities. It will expand the
market tor butter fat, and by expand-
fog the market for butter fat It will
make room on the farms of the sur
rounding territory tor more cows.
Making room for todre cows will add
to the general prosperity, which means
that everyone will profit, directly or
Indirectly, In greater or smaller meas
ure, from the Investment of local
money In a local enterprise whose
purpose Is .the development of local!
resources.
In the night before last Issue of the
Salem Capital-Journal there Is printed
a letter from A. J, Anderson, of Salem.
Mr. Anderson is one of a number of
men who Invested hard-earned money
In land on the ialand of Palmlto del
Verde, located off the 'coast of Mexico,
to whicli reference has been made in
the past in these columns. He was
led to invest his money by the clever
arguments of men whose business it
is to sell the green pastures on the
other side of the mountain- There
were many opkortnoities to put his
cash into good Investments In his home
town or his home tsotrafy, but he
psased them by. Here is what he says
of the results: ... ' . ,

If Argentina were a do country like
tho United States, nobody ever would
have taken that pleslosaurus hunt very
seriously. Tou nevr can tell what
sort of prehlstorlo monster will be
seen In a dry country under the sUmu
I us of bootleg boose. But It comes to
the same thing after nil. The hunters
are oomtng back from Patagonia with
out any plesiosaurus or glyptodon or
megatherium, or anything. They have
seen no trace of the monster reported
In those parts, and don't believe there
ever was any monster.
It la too had. Life relapses to the
dull and prosaic again, as far as tool
ogy is concerned. The remote past re
fonts to be linked up with the living
present There is no giant llxard of a
million years to step out of his
ancient swamp and add sest to our
soos and show what mankind was up
against In his hairy prime. A missing
link is still missing.
Extinct lisanls may still be hunted,
however. In the same old way that has
given science all it knows about them.
They" will be found by unimaginative
farmers digging wells and by city con
tractors opening gravel pits or exca
vating for the new church.
There will be nothing found but
gigantic bones, but scientists will take
those fragments and piece out the
skeletons and clothe them with make
believe flesh and hide and hair, and
reconstruct the conditions in which
they lived in those incredible days
when our 'temperate sone was torrid,
and man if he existed must have lived
furtively, driven from cave to cave
and faced on an sides by huge horrors.
There Is enough Imagination In that
ktnd of hunting to satisfy any normal
