PURE FOOD LAWS.
Tho recent visit to Rend of a rep
resentative of tho State Dairy and
Food Commissioner calls attent'on
it the fact that Oregon has a collec
tion of laws which nnount to a puio
food code, Not that there are any
local conditions the eslstenco of
which would lead ono to think that
o such code existed, for we bUo
that Dend Is singularly fortunate In
tho manner In which Its stores or
kept and Its food supplies displayed.
Rue we do believe that hero, as she
whore In tho state and country, there
Is much that is offered for Bale tnat
would not bo If there were proper
Mate and national pure food laws
strictly onforccd. The fault for the
condition Is general, but the con
rumer is at tho bottom of the heap.
If he mado his grocer carry only
products that are pure the grocer in
turn would buy only such from tho
wholesaler and the wholesaler from
the manufacturer. As things stand
today, tho consumer thinks of lit
tle but tho price and the dealer who
would like to carry only the best Is
forced, by his less particular com
petitor, to carry the poorer qualities
merely to hold his trade.
Authorities agree that the nation
al food law Is sadly Insufficient and
the most stringent of state laws U
therefore useless because of the fed
eral protection of Interstate ship
ments. Yet public sentiment can
work wonders, whatever the condi
tion of the law, as is well shown by
the case of the little town of Wwt
Hold, Mass., which has epmo to iw
Known as the pure food town. Man
ufacturers know they havo mado a
pure food when they get it on sale
there and they advertlso the fact of
their adaJselon to the stores of the
town.
II would be a fortunate thing If
some buqIi condition might be
brought about in the towns of Ore
gon, and boot of all In Rend. We be
lieve that before long there will be
an effort made by President Wilson
to have the national law Improved
and following this the state laws will
have a iolsterlng up. Compliance
wRlf the law comes easiest to those
who agree with Its provisions. If wo
can begin now to see, tho advantages
of the 'change, we will be ready for
tho new law wben.lt comes.
ago. There Is no competition In It.
Some years ngo someono began to
mlso, say, a pair of that variety. Ho
has cared for them so well that when
tho announcement of tho prltes Is
mado ho has tho best of that kind
In tho county, and when tho fair
comes ho gets tho award. True, ho
has worked well and deserves rec
ognition, but tha prize has npt bet
tered farming conditions, as waB In
tended. Wo repeat, there has been
no competition. And thero Is no In-
contlvo for his neighbor to try to hot
tor him at next year's fair locausot
ho docs not know what tho prltes
thon nro to bo.
Wo would suggest to tho prlic-glV'
lng powers that bo that thoy oaro
fully consider tho classes of exhibits
and thou offer prizes In tho Impor
tant classes which will bo repeated
for a term of years. Then our far
mer friends will be stirred to liogln
raising now the animal or the pair
that Is to compete for tho prlzo In
1915 and 1916. That will Improve
broods.
EVHRYHODVS AUTO.
"Co1in.ty nuto. It Is ordered tho
clerk issue warrants for gas bills for
county nuto with a very distinct un
derstanding that tho ear shall be aa
much at tho disposal of ono county
official as another., viz., tho sheriff
shall be allowed no preference, ex
cept during sessions of circuit
court."
This Illuminating paragraph ap
pears in the proceedings of the last
session of the County Court. Whence
It is quite evident that Judgo Spring
er proposes to joy rldo In that sacred
county car wherover and whenever
ho feels disposed and that Sheriff
Elklns, for whoso office tho car was
purchased primarily, so far as tho
taxpayers understood, may havo to
resort to n deal of doxterty If he Is
to havo Its use In the exercise of his
duties. Under the provisions of the
unique order Messrs. Myors, Rico,
Drawn (Warren and W. W.), Jordan.
Foster, Polndexter, the school olfl
cers, eta, etc., nro permitted to use
tho nuto. Alone of them nil, wo
suspect Commissioner Ilayloy will
not demand his official privilege!
tlcal aonso, ho won hln way to a.
loading position In statu legislative
nlfalrs. An nblo lawyer, hla export
ouco, political and professional, linn
brought htm. lit closo contact with
general conditions throughout tho
state and In addition to this his In n
heritage which logically oilough
sooma to predict n political career In
Oregon for his father, ono of East
ern Oregon's foremost ptonuers, was
an oillcoholdcr boforo him. And
there Is another side of tho question
a weaker and a less able man than
Pat McArthur would ho n lit op
ponent for Lnrfcrly. Oregon has hnd
enough of that political shyster.
Neither his personal record, nor hln
public accomplishments, merit for
hint support rnthor, they should
win tho sturdiest kind of opposition
among all thoughtful voturs of
Multnomah. Let us hope that Mc
Arthur goes to Congress and Lnfforty
goes to the political Junk heap.

RATIONAL PRIZE QlVINO.
Among; the prizes offered at the
different fairs now being held all
over the country are a number which
In the nature of things must be
given as rewards for successful ac
tivity running over a number of
years, and as this farming has not
been done beoause the farmer was
working for any reward it must come
to him us a surprise. Now, surprises
are sometimes pleasant things to
happen, but wo believe that thoy are
not as conducive to better farming
or stock raising aa might be. And
us that Is the chief reason for giving
awards, premiums and prizes, we
venture the suggestion that tho pres

Brick is absolutely (ire proof in any ordinary conflagration.
Brick Buildings never burn, although they are sometimes
injured by (ailing timbers or combustible interior woodwork.
A brick building is absolutely (ire proof if wire glass is used
in the windows and if burned clay floors arc used.
An interior lire in such a building is confined to the room in
which it originates; no outside fire can attack it,
The proportion of burned clay in a building construction
measures its fire proof qualities.
Burned clay is the only building material that has been
through the (ire before you get it, in such u manner that it will
resist fire. All combustible mateiial is burned out of the brick
before you get it.
