Deposits at the Aurora State Bank have touched the
$300,000 mark. It is especially encouraging to note
the steadily increasing time and savings deposits of
the people of the Aurora vicinity. This is a very
healthy condition and indicates that people generally
are using judgment and during these prosperous
times are laying away funds for future needs. We
pay 4% on time deposits and i% compounded quart­
erly on savings accounts. You are given absolute
assurance of safety and the satisfaction o f being able
to get your money .when you need it. There is no
loss from market fluctuation.
A time deposit with us is the ideal
short time investment.
A Stayton W oolen Mill manufactures an autorobe
which is sold in Salem stores at $6.95. The output of the
mill is larger than the home trade can handle, and the re­
mainder of its product is sold to an eastern mail order
house which prices the robes in its catalogue at $8.50
each—and Marion county people are buying them!

Where Is The Sting, O Alcohol?
To those who miss their alcoholic stimulants, Senor
Ramon Jesus Dumalogon, a half breed Chinese-Filipino,
from Cagayan de Oro, has a substitute which he is offer­
ing to the waiting western world. He wants to introduce
the Buya, which is composed o f the betel nut and a little
shell-lime wrapped in the leaf of the Piper betle (a species
o f climbing pepper).
•
The Buya is chewed by the natives of the Philippines
—including the Moros of Mindanao,the dog-eating Igorot-
les of Luzon, the wiry little Negritos of Mindoro, as well
as some o f the highly cultured natives of the archipelago.
The fact that the Buya blackens the teeth may prove a
slight disadvantage.
But it has long been the solace, and dream creator
of the South Seas. Used freely Buya makes the devotee
o f booze forget the lure that lingers in the suitcase. With
a chew o f Buya in his mouth, the bolo man works happily
all day in the tropic sun, feeling as if he were in paradise.
His troubles fade away and his soul is at rest. A second
chew takes him in fancy out of the fields, into the heavens
where the celestial- music of the spheres calms all the emo­
tions of the Orient. A third chew brings up to him the
great green jungles filled with revolving green parrots
which turn into multi-colored lizards that spring from star
to star. From the tangled mile-long vines of the jungle,
red monkeys leap and chatter in pure unadulterated joy,
and the whole earth sends up yellow balls of fire.
All these things—and many more—are contained in
betel nut, the pepper leaf and the pinch of shell-
lime. If this b^xTw, -oe .^nor Ramon Jesus Dumalogon

The taking of the 1920 census will begin January 2.
Cities and towns will be completed in about two weeks,
and the rural districts within a month. Enumerators will
be appointed after an examination this month at Salem.'
Enumerators and other employes of the Census Bureau
are forbidden, under heavy penalties, to give out any in­
formation whatever concerning the information collected,
and it is desired to impress the people that the census has
nothing to do with taxation.
Eugene parents and teachers are raising a row about
the big picture of the ex-Kaiser that adorns a page in the
geography in use in the Oregon schools—one of the books
recently adopted for use for the next six years. If the
state text-book commission has saddled this thing on the
schools, there is nothing to prevent pupils from tearing
the offending page out of the book and petitioning the
governor to fire the text book commission.
Today is “ fire prevention” day. The governor calls
upon everyone to examine their premises and to remove
all fire hazards. He emphasizes the importance o f the
day because of the spirit of unrest that prevades the
country.

Until 5 years ago, the meat of calves less than three
weeks old was considered unfit for food. But the depart­
ment of agriculture has proved that for food purposes a
pound of meat from a 5 day old calf is just as good as a
pound of the maturest beef, Over 5,000,000 bull calves
have been killed yearly at birth because the milk they
would consume to bring them to a (marketable) weight as
veal was worth more than the calf would bring on the
market as veal. The Federal government meat inspection
regulations have been amended so as to permit the car­
casses of young calves to be disposed o f for food.
