One can readily note the change of sentiment relative
to the liquor business by reading the editoral comment
on the supreme court decision in this state. Practically
every paper of influence in the state approved of the
decision.

Oregon’s “Blue sky law” is having the effect of
putting several corporations out of business. It should
become a national law, if scheamers avoid using the
mail, the government is almost helpless in bringing the
evil doers to justice.

By Edward Rowland Sill
Road Supervisor J. B. Yeon is quite indignant be­
cause someone started the rumor that he wanted to
become governor. Mr. Yeon is happy just as long as
Multnomah county will permit him to hold his present
job without pay. While he may not know what trouble
the future has in store for him, this hobby of -od
roads may yet land him in the gubinatorial chair.
Western Oregon is not keeping up with the rest o '
the state in growing hogs. During the year 1915 as
as compared with the previous year over the 0. W. R.
& N. there was shipped into Portland an increase of
6634 hogs while the increase over the S. P. for the
same period was only 63 hogs. Washington county is
not producing the number of hogs that it did several
years ago. One of the reasons is that in certain sec­
tions the farmers sell their milk to the condensers but
this is not true of the greater portion of the county,
and even if it was the case at the prevailing prices
for pork, hogs are profitable and will continue to be
so for anumber of years. There is no question but
what fresh meat of all kinds will be higher for several
years at least. The fancy prices for the past two
years has tempted the growers to dispose of th> ir
young stock and it will take time to replace them.
In the meantime high meat is to be expected. The
The Willamette valley should produce twice the number
of hogs it does and the renewed interest being taken
by the farmers will undoubtedly show quite an increase
