Uaa year by mail 11.00 Advertising moulds public opinion. Advertising keeps alive bope and bat ten down pessimism. The best thing you can do for an enemy is to hate him for you harm yourself far more than you harm him. Advertising tells who you are, what you are, and what you have to offer. The only man who should not advertise is the man who has noth ing to-offer. When it comes to a showdown, For est Grove has a host of men and wo- men that are right on the job when it comes to put over some valuable piece of work for the community and city. You hear a lot about a prophet being without honor in his own town. We are inclined to think that is be cause he does not know how to util ise his home paper for advertising purposes. While this is the good summer time, . it is no reason to allow the summer months to pass without renewing your subscription to the home paper. It takes money to conduct a news paper during the dog days quite as much as in the more brisk months. The city has ordinances that cover a multitude of things and once in a while these regulations are enforced. That property owners must cut the thistles, noxious weeds and tall grass on vacant lots throughout the city is prescribed fey ordinance. Every good citizen will see to it that this ordinance is kept without having to resort to the strong arm of the law. It used to be a law of economics that competition was the life blood of business progress, but now we are beginning to believe that more can be gained by active co-operation. It is merely an indication of that spirit of brotherly kindness which is slow ly extending throughout all the world today, and which, in spite of the pessimist's forecasts, will soon per mit us to enjoy a heaven on earth. THE PRESIDENT AND BUSINESS This is taken from an interview with John Wanamaker, who has just The Story of j Our States j ! By JONATHAN BRACE J ! VI. MASSACHUSETTS !

MISTLAND CHERRIES WIDE DISTRIBUTION A total of 45 carloads of cherries was shipped in the fresh state by the Oregon Growers' Cooperative Asso ciation during the season which Is just past. It is interesting to note that of this number 37 solid cars were shipped to such eastern markets as New York, Boston, Chicago, Balti more, Pittsburg, Minneapolis and Cleveland. "Mist land" cherries this Tear re ceived the widest distribution of their history and were scattered all the way to the east coast and down the western coast states. Very lavorabie weather conditions during the grow ing and picking season minimized the trouble so often experienced with brown rot and made it possible to ship the fruit a long distance with little of this trouble showing up. Careful sorting and packing was another im portant factor. No reasonable effort was snared to insure their early arrival on tne mar ket in good condition and most of them went through in the finest of condition, meeting a gooa aemana in an sections to wmcn tney shinned. Less than car lots were shipped as far north as Seattle and Spokane and south to San rrancisco and sacra men to. Portland received many of the cherries and other shipments went to tfend and Alarsniield. Washington drew heavily on the "Mistland" sup ply. In addition to the cities in the state already mentioned, Bellingham, Aberdeen, Hoquiam and Raymond came in for their share. Some lots also went to Iowa. A strong demand was felt for those cherries which were packed in the newly introduced signal lug boxes if repeat orders are anv indication. This attractive -ackage was the most popular with the buyers. In addition to that shipped out a large tonnage of the association's cherries went to the canneries for canning and glace fruit purposes, a single firm, the Lyons Glace Fruit company using 100 tons for glace. j 70KDER3 OF AMERICA ByT.T.HAZCT ...

This ship I 624 feet long, weight 82,000 tons and from the water-line to the top of the mast Is as high as ten-story building. To drive It 21 knots an hour re quires 28,000 bone power. Her oil burning engines are fed from tanks which carry approximately 1,000,000 gallons of oil. It's nine boilers pro duce 86,000 horse power of steam energy. This steam turns two tur bines which develop 82,000 horse power. These turbines are marvelous savers of fuel and space. Each tur bine ts connected to an electric gen erator. Each generator produces 10,000 horse power of electrical energy. Huge cables carry this current to the control board from which the en gineer operates the ship. From this point this power Is sent to four giant : motors of 7,000 horse power each one of which Is attached to each pro- j peller shaft. "Let electricity do It" Is tlie motto on the New Mexico. Electricity re volves the gun turrets, moves, loads and fires the guns; raises the anchor, moves the rudder and pushes the ship ; lowers the boats, pumps the water, runs the machine and blacksmith shops, heats and lights the boat; op erates the Interior communicating, tire protection, refrigerating, ventilating and telephone systems and wireless in struments ; peels potatoes, washes dishes, mixes the bread dough, washes and Irons the clothes In the laundry, sterilizes the Instruments Id the hos pital and does numerous other unlooked-for stunts.

Mr. Harding fills a large space as successful politician and orator. But he has also had distinct success as a publisher. He put life into a moribund country newpaper, and built it up to exercise state-wide in fluence, and to assist in his promotion to tne highest office in the country. He thus got an insight into business methods and requirements, and pursued his studies in all the placea tie nas neid since. Mr. Wanamaker s point is well taken, and should be widely cons id ered.

The terms of the sale were 365 a ton, f.o.b. shipping point for No l's and $36 for No 2's. Early advances to the grower after the crop is marketed will be possible un der the arrangement. The nearest approach to this figure was $61.75 for No. l's and $33 for No. 2 Bartletts, the price at which the entire tonnage of canning pears of the California Fear Growers' association was sold according to the California Fruit News of July 30th. They thought it advisable to have the pears canned and sold out early so that the market would be cleaned un in irood shape for next year. ihe iirst 10 carloads of Yakima pears sold for JtoO a ton, but subse quent sales went down to $46 and $40 and It is probable that the bulk of the tonnage there will move at that figure. The Rogue River valley has already rolled its first pears and the season will soon be going at full swing all over the pear producing areas of the state. FOREST GROVE NEWS From the News-Times PRUNES ARE SELLING REGULARLY JUST NOW Keeping up a steady pace of nearly a car of prunes a week, the English market has just ordered the 30th car of the "Mistland" fruit since the last of October, 1920. During the last two months nine cars of prunes have been shipped, six of these going out in June. This would indicate that prunes are found on tne English table during the sum mer as well as the winter for it takes them more than a month to reach the consumer on the other side of the Atlantic.
