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.

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

United States, to be propelled by
electricity.
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

The highest price so far reported
in the coast states for canning pears
was obtained by the Oregon Growers'
Co-operative association for the entire
tonnage of pears in the Umpqua and
Willamette valleys. 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

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.

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.
