BIG PROFITS PerhapB you have been interested in Mr. Boyd's article which has been running for the past two weeks and is concluded hi this issue. It is really a good tip to anyone who is not al ready a devotee of good gardening. But the thing that has interested ut most is that this is only one of the aig opportunities lor making profits in Beaverton. The other morning we rode down to Forest Grove on the train with Walter Harris, superintendent of the electrical equipment on the southern Pacific lines here. He told us that the shops' payroll in Beaverton about $5000 rper month: that seven or eight men, who work there are living elsewhere because they cannot get suiiaoie nouses nere in wnicn to live; that at least half a dozen trainmen tie up here at night and sleen and set their meals as best thev can that the other evening a new operator arrived in town; that he found suit able rooms almost impossible to se cure and so took his faultily back to town. Mr. Harris told us more of conditions at the shoos, but this will suffice. Now the point is this. These men will spend at least 75 per cent of their earnings in Beaverton if given the opportunity. They would be steady renters of small modern houses if we had the houses to rent. What better inducement could one ask to invest a reasonable amount of money m the right kind of houses ? Dozens of people are already mak ing reasonably good profits on poultry. IA cannery would find a ready market for its product and a big ter ritory of rich lands to furnish it raw material. A small creamery hero, oronerlv managed, would be a profitable ven ture for a man who knows the busi- ess. There is no jeweler in Beaverton. Men's suits are not carried hare. An up-to-date milliner might do wall In fact, then is no end to the pos sibilities for profitable investment here. CENSUS TAKER USES AEROPLANES Everything from aeroplanes to snowshoes is being used by the agents of Unela Bam In taking the 1020 cen sus of the United Statu. About the only modem method of transportation either on, over, or below land or wa ter that has not been employed in enumerating Uncle Sam's nieces and nephews seems to be the submarine. Aeroplanes have come in handy in enumerating the dwellers on the is lands off the coast of Florida; yacht and rowhoata have bgeen used in the harbors of the country; native canoes have been in demand among the Ha-, waiian Islands; "flivvers" are being used everywhere; the tried and trusty mule team has carried the census takers out on the desert regions; and snowshoes have become the trusted aides of the census gatherers in the northern states and Alaska. In the central part of New York state, near Oswego, a few days ago an enumerator making his rounds on snowshoes arrived at an isolated farm dwelling only to find that an able-bodied man was needed more than a census gatherer as the man of the family had been sick in bed for, several days and the farm animal, were suffering for lack of food and water. The census man, like any marked a well-known resident of that taction to the Times publisher the other day. There is truth In his assertion. Too much of our property is held at figures much above what the owners 'honestly know It to bo worth. A lot that cost 1100 a year ao is not rea sonably worth 1600 today. A house that could have been bought last season for S10O0 is making at least a fair margin of profit if it sella fox flow today. Here is work for the Commercial Club. If the properties for sale here were listed, fair valuations placed on them by impartial judges, based on distance from station, desirability of location and probable future value and these lists made available to the prospective Investor for his protect' ion, it would go a long way toward convincing local property holders that a reasonable profit is enough and it will in tune inspire confidence with outside people and redound to the benefit of the town. Where to Find Us. The Times office has been moved to the old bank building between the Beaver Garage and Hardware Co. and the W. P. McGee stores, just east of the post office. There you will find Mr, Carruth at all times, ready to do your printing. The Times will have an ofite with him and as soon as we are able, we expect to have someone in charge of it.

If you want to tell us about news, write it out and leave on our desk, or call Mrs, Jonas on the tele phone. PHOTOGRAPHS D. Perry Evans !

OREGON WEATHER AGAIN PREVAILS IN THIS LOCALITY This vicinity has experienced a very unusual winter, say the oldest inhabitants. There has been but lit tle rain compared with the ordinary uregon winter ana we have naa many cool frosty nights and morn ings. The dry spell was broken Monday night when a slight skift of snow fell. This was followed bv rain on Tues day and Wednesday and we are now experiencing some real Oregon weatner witn tne gentle rain coming softly down. With just a little more moderation of the temperature the weatner win oe ideal. It will mean goodbye to the "flu," grip, pneumonia and colds. O. A. C CLUB ORGANIZED Last Saturday a group of former O.

BE CONTENT WITH A REASONABLE PROFIT "One of the reasons that Huber and Aloha are building faster and more property is changing hands than at other towns jn the county is that lots mav be had close to the station at a reasonable figure," re- RADICALS PLUS RADICALS Look at Russia-- nation in the hands of radicals I Would you like to live in Russia? Would you like to see this country transformed into another Russia? Radicalism made Russia what it is today radicalism on both sides. The czars of Russia have been the greatest radicals of modern times probably of all tim s. Their radi calism was all in favor of plundering tne poor in iavor oi tne ncn ana ia vored class. Now the caar is rot ting in an unhonored grave mur dered by another set of radicals the peasant bolsheviks, The rich and favored are no longer rich or favored. They are being plundered and mur dered by the vory people whom they robbed a few short months ago. A case of dog eat dog. But take a look at our own country. View the situation without malice and without passion. Capitalistic greed and radicalism are fomenting a dangerous radical ism among the laboring classes. Radical labor leaders are continu ally stirring up strife and enmity toward all capital. Each wants to swallow the other at a gulp, and neither is willing to meet the other half way and adopt a conservative basis of adjustment oi difficulties. I There are brains and common sense among both the capitalists and the laborers. But in both camps radi calism makes a big noise and conser vatism dances to the music. Throw out the radicals on both sides and we Americans will be able to view bolshevistic Russia with pity rather than with apprehension. A radical is a radical, in whichever camp you find him.
