Life holds a barrel of joy for you, if you want it. But it expects you to pull the plug out of the bunghole. , Same good roads for the coming winter would be a wonderful help to Beaverton's prosperity. Now is a good time to start working for them. An inquirer in a city Tper wants to know if it is legal for a young man of thirty to adopt a young wo man of twenty-five. It is with a wedding ring. It is worth while to remember. when pessimists try to discourage you by pointing to the failure of indus tries which have located here in the past, that these industries came un solicited and asked for help that they might locate here. The nroooaitions worth having are worth going after and there is always a town wide enough awake to go after them. Wei mignt try tt once ourselves. If Beaverton had a hundied men who would work together for a com4 mon purpose, it could soon direct the! policies ol Waahinirton County and get good roads in the East end of the county. If it had a dozen men who) would work together to a common purpose, it could establish industries j build up a payroll and become twice as prosperous as it now is. And ifl two or three men would start work-J ing together to that end. it would! soon have the dozen and the hundred.! Wheresoever two or three are eath-J ered together in my name," is true oil other matters as well as of Christian-! ity. - ! SECOND CHICAGO CONVENTION The organization of a new party at Chicago will not be a repetition of the 1912 fiasco. The conditions that surround its formation are entirely different. Then it was a man, revolt ing asrainst the uniust, or seeming unjust act of his party in convention assembled. The principle at stake at that time was whether gag rule and bossism could run a political par ty and get away with it. The bosses and the party lost and the Democrats secured the spoils of a campaign that they could not otherwise have won. Today it is a different issue. It is an , attempt of the disgruntled and dissatisfied elements of both parties to capitalize the radical elements of the labor parties and secure concess ions from which ever party can be in timidated. With them are a few able and earnest progressives who are out of touch with the old parties and per haps honestly think that they can mold the uncohesive mass of radicals into something of solidity. But their efforts will be in vain. The majority ot the gathering at Chicago are rad icals. Radicals are visionary. There will be a hundred binds of dreams and the only kind of dream which can draw a following is the dream which comes true, which materializes and can be made to produce. The new party has but one chance of success. That is for both of the old parties to make fatal mistakes. Both of the old parties have made fatal mistakes in the past, but both have never made the fatal mistake the same year in the past and it is not probable that both will make a fatal blunder this year. SINGLE TAX EXPERIMENTS California and Oregon are doomed to be nrade the field for single tax experiments with each recurrim? election. So long as the Fels fund holds out, so long as the trust created by the Henry George soap manufacturer yields the revenue, so long will Sin gle Tax go on the ballot. It would seem after a radical and revolutionary taxation reform has been voted down with increasing ma jorities, it might be dropped But not so. By a new wrinkle the people are offered "partial Single Tax" to go iato effect piecemeal, the first slice to be taken in 1925. The firm and conservative charac ter of the people of western states will again reject the iSinale Land bills up for a vote in November. The Manufacturer. FARMERS MUST PREPARE TO STORE GRAIN Bumoer cron nrosnecta arc esoec- ially good in western states. An other cause for rejoicing on the part ot tne larmer is the highly improved labor situation. From ' nearly all districts come reports of adequate farm labor for harvesting the large crops with urgent demands for food stuffs. A note of optimism adds to the joy oi lite for our greatest citizen, the American farmer. But it is only good common horse sense to look ahead and prepare for difficulties wnicn may arise before the crop is marketed. The only visible cloud on the hori zon is the transportation situation. The railroads are deplorably in need ol equipment, f urther, congestion, due largely to strikes, oast and pres ent, not only of railroad employees, but of longsoremen, truck drivers, etc., has tied up large quantities of cars. The car building companies of the country have on order for the rail roads, 43,000 cars. Few of these" Will be delivered in time to help in the grain movement. There is a short age of at least 260,000 ears. Farmers must consider the tempo rary storage of grain. Because of high cost of lacks and handling, the sacking of grain is rapidly being done away with. Terminals, elevators, railroad equipment, etc., ore equipped for bulk handling of grain. Progressive far mers, either already have or are now pngaring to handle their grain in To aid the farmer in economically equipping himself with temporary bulk storage the bureau of markets of the U. S. government, has, after a detailed study of the fanner's needB, prepared plans for a temporary grain bin which may be built for var iocs capacities. These grain bins are movable and ao simple of construction that any farmer with the ordinary tools on the farm can build one in a day with out skilled help. The material can be purchased at any retail lumber yard and can be paid for out of the saving on sacks of the first season. The U. S. government bureau of markets or the nearest lumber yard vill furnish plans free of charge, showing the construction of one of these binns. These cuts and accom panying explanations are so simple and explicit that it is not necessary for the builder to be able to read a blue print in order to construct his grain bin according to government plana.
