r —---------------- — ■ —----------- BYE, BYE, BITTERNESS By John Edwin I’ rice In your personal job o f making the most o f you it has doubtless o f ten occurred to you that besides per- f o i :: ing a surgical opera .ion on your fears there is .¡ornething else which should he eliminated. It sometimes grows on the personality as an o ff shoot o f fear. If it hasn’t occurred to you there being none o f it in you, then you may hav read of it. I refer to, Bit terness. If we cannot prove at once our sup iority to the thing, person or condition we fear there is a ten dency to become embittered. To per mit ourselves to become bitten with bitterness doesn’t conquer anything or spite anybody. It only makes sore spots in the soul, and sometimes rr, the body as well. The hurt o f holding bitterness in the heart usually regis ters in the face o f the one harboring this crabby mental attitude. We have been told that bitterness causes tension o f nerves. Nerve ten sion prevents organs and glands from properly functioning. Loss o f sleep is one of the penalties of harboring bitterness. Loss o f appetite soon fol lows loss of sleep and ere long the health is broken. Saint Paul was talking sense when he said “ Let your clamor and bitter ness and evil speaking be put away from you with all malice.” CLACKAMAS COUNTY NEWS - • But the troubled soul finds it hard not to hate. Plans have been frustrat ed. Friends have helped the opposi tion. Conditions have been unkind. In such an hour the advice o f the sages and seers has ever been “ Seel: the quietness and power that comes from communion with the spiritual source o f your spiritual self.” Havergal has admitted: "Thou layest Thy hand on the fult- tering heart, And sayest ‘Be still,’ The silence and shadows are onlya part, , O f Thy sweet will, Thy presence is with me and where Thou art, I fear no ill.” Along the same line George Fox advises, “ Be still and cool in thy mind and spirit from thy own thots, and then thou wilt feel the principle of God, from whom life comes; where jy thou inayest receive His strength and power to allay all blustering storms and tempests. That is it which works up into patience, into stayed ness into quietness, up to God with His power. Therefore be still awhile from thy own thots, searching, seek ing, desires and imaginations and be stayed in the principle o f God in thee that it may raise thy mind up to God and thou wilt find strength in Him.” LIFE i are completely wu.v,. self-stopping, self-oiling.

The study revealed however tha> before O: gon can compete in the distant major consuming centers with the prove-sing plants nearby, plants in this state must be aide to produce either a qual.ty superior enough to command !i! ■lie’- price or must pro duce equal quality at lower cost so at to compensate fo: the extra freight charges. The study was made principally in connection with nine fruit and vege table canning associations altthough due consideration was given to 52 commercial canning concerns in the state. It was found that with the ex ception of corn and tomatoes the pack o f Oregon fruits and vegeta bles is marketed mainly outside of the Pacific northwest. ram o f the Surplus Marketing admin- istration were made in Klamath Falls at a confetence o f representatives of interested agencies and application blanks have already been mailed to growers in Crook,, Deschutes and Klamath counties and in Sisikiyou and Modoc counties in California reports N.

It will be many a day before any substantial measure o f stability or security is again attained. The farmer like every one else is being swept forward on the crest of wartime economy. Costs are rising around him like angry sea». He is threatened by a labor trek from farm to shipyard unless he pays wag- ese few farmers can pay and stay in business. The cost o f eveiything he buys from wearing apparel to trac tors is steadily inching upwards. The farmer must in some measure meet these rising costs by increasing the selling pi ice o f his products. There is no doubt that agencies such as the farmer-owned marketing cooperatives will play a vital part in this life and death battle. Members of the marketing co-ops have found in the past that their maiketing pro blems diminish remarkably when plac ed in the hands of these organizations o f their own making that have no aim in view other than stable markets and fair prices for farm products. They will find them doubly valuable in the future.

Powell Blvd. Gresham, Oregon Contentment in old age isn’t sim ply a matter o f a root over your head and three meals a day. Content ment involves above a,I else, the fac tor o f independence, independence from charity, from relatives, from government relief. It means economic self-security. One o f the great tragedies of life is the number o f men and women who reach old age entiiely without finan cial resources o f their own. They feel that they are a burden to others even though that feeling is not justified. Today millions ol Americans are making certain that this won’t be their lot. They are building old age security thru life insurance and other systematic savings plans. In old age these far sighted people will really know the meaning of contentment. F o o d P r oc essin g Industry Await s M ar ke t Outlets Profitable market outlets are the key to further development of the canned or processed fruit and vege table industry in this state according to an extension report on “ Some Eco nomic Considerations o f Marketing Oregon Fruits and Vegetables Thru Cooperative Canning Associations,” just issued as station bulletin No. 177 at Oregon state college. The re port is the result o f a thoro study made by Dr. D. B. DcLoach associate agronomist o f the experiment sta tion and Charles \V. Peters research assistant. The production of fruits and ve getables for canning and cold pack ing has increased rapidly in Oregon as this enterprise fits in well with the soil and climatic resources o f this state and with the need for produc ing agricultural products o f high val- ; ue in relation to transportation costs The production o f these crops is now carried on commercially in 18 of Oregon’s 36 counties. Nine o f these counties are in the Wil lairette val ley. three are in southern O.ego.i, two in the Columbia basin and four are farther east. This industry is especially signifl. cant in the future development of the state since those crops requite an intensive use o f land and an ex tensive use o f labor and therefore are suited to small farming units, the authors point out.
