IN THE DAY'S NEWS
The Portland Oregonlan la 76
years old today.and aa time la reck
oned out here on thla younger edgo
of the continent that is & ripe old
age. A great deal of water haa
flowed down the Columbia since the
first issue waa put out. and great
changes have come about in what
waa then the Oregon country. The
Oregonian can take pride in the
fact that it ha influenced many of
these changes.
The Oregonian shows its age. It
displays with great frequency the
narrowness of view that Is one of
the characteristics of advancing
years and is apt to bo suspicions
and Intolerant of the new, aa be
comes the septuagenarian. But in
general it displays the ripeness of
Judgment that la the crown of
studious old age, and for that rea
son what it has to say is worth
listening to oven though It may
Dot be right.
From a tract of 60 m-rr of bot
tout land Hartley and Craig, ' of
Salem, took this year a crop of
mint that waa sold for JS7.000. Tho
average production of peppermint
oil was about 40 pounds per acre.
and the oil wag sold for I 14 per
pound. It would h.ivo broUKht
even more If the owners had held
on lonirer, for tho price la now more
than 126 per pound.
That is an nstontshlng record,
allowing what can lm achieved In
Western Oregon wth apeclnlty
cropa when conditions nro favor
able. It Is further proof of tho
fact that we need to experiment
continually with crops that can be
grown here successfully but are
not produced generally over the
United States.
' The Northwest country owes the
Oregonian a debt or gratitude for
establishing, away hack in those
early years, high standards of
Journalistic excellence and sticking
consistently to those standards
once they were established. It
tells all the news, tells it well. It
succumbs quite seldom ' to the
temptation to print nasty scandals
merely because of their street sale
value.
It is not provincial, paying its
readers the high compliment of
conceding that they ore Interested
in all the news of the world and
not merely the sensational skim
mings of the news of their own
locality.
It is this writer's belief that no
where In America is there so high
s. standard of newspaper . excel
lencefrom the very large papers
down to the very small ones as in
the state of Oregon in particular
and the Pacific Northwest in gen
eral. For this, the Oregonian is
largely responsible. Especially In
Its earlier years, it dominated the
journalism of its field, and the
dltor who strove for success strove
largely to imitate the Oregonian.
When you come to appraise it
properly, that Is quite an achievement.
Here in the Willamette valley wc
have special conditions, and wo
need to capitalize them if we are to
succeed fully. We have a long
growing season, with very little
frost. We have plenty of moisture,
save In the summer months, and
this lack can be cured at moderate
cost by irrigation. These condi
tions are present In few other parts
of tho United States.
Tho staple grains and rough,
bulky forage crops can no longer
be produced here at a satisfactory
profit because of land values. But
there is a wide list of specialties
worth experimenting with.
It is not tho intention to say here
that everyone with suitable land
should rush Into mint growing
That is far from the truth. The
high price of peppermint oil this
year Is due to a combination of cir
cumstances that may not soon be
present again.
There was failure of the crop In
Michigan, due to frost, and at the
same time there has been a consid
erable extension of the market due
to the fact that an outlet for pep
permint oil has been found in the
Orient. If everyone should rush
into peppermint growing next year,
expecting to get rich from & single
crop, there would be widespread
disappointment.
But the fact remains that these
exceptional yields from mint prove

of specialty crops in Western Ore

One Mother Saya:
My baby's piny pen afforded him
no place for a fingerhold by which
to raise himself. I solved this by
purchasing three or four towel
.racks and nailing them solidly at
uirierent levels inside tne pen- mak
ing sure they were placed at a con
venient height for him to reach.
Ho soon learned to pull himself up
by these convenient handles.

The great majority of babies who

first year are snatched away by In

organs tire peculiarly liable to dis

The more fresh, pure, dusttess
air a baby breathes, tho less likely
ic that particular Infant to have
etdds, bronchitis or pneumonia.
Little babies are susceptlbto to tho
germs of respiratory diseases.
When they contruct these allmonts
they are far moro llkoly than adults
to suffer seriously in consequence.
To guard the Infant against such
infections Is tho first duty of the

The trouble Is that lots of young;

to point out why tho tiny baby
should not have been at the movlo

poorly ventilated places, but for
bah.? it is out of tho question.
We should take pains to encour

ers, perhaps- have never come to
realize the duty bhey owe to the 1
public. Hut every such place shoula

for an abundance of fresh air.

Perhaps not, but neither Is It the
city's business to compete with
private industry in furnishing elec

quite satisfactorily, at ft very rea

The municipal automobile park
Is beautifully located. It BM
very wide reputation as an' attrc

Besides, It Is more than self-sup

drain on tho Uvpayer, but It re
turns a fair profit for the general
purposo of park upkeep, This
profit la contributed cheerfully by
those who avail themselves of the
accommodations offered,
Automobile touring is growing
rapidly in popularity. Each year
the number on the roads increases,
and each year it will continue to In
