MONDAY, NOV. 26, 1917 GRADE YOUR POTATOES Because the potato market is being demoralized by the pour ing in of all grades of potatoes, the small knotty mixed with the large and smooth tubers, Act ing Food Administrator W. K. Newell, issues a warning to all potato growers, large and small, to grade their product carefully before sacking and; shipping. "The small potatoes of poor quality are not worth sacking and shipping," said Mr. Newell, "and when mixed with the bet ter product they spoil the mar ket and bring down the prices. Let the grower offer the smal ler and inferior potatoes at a low price near the point of pro duction, sell in quantity to the starch factories or canneries, or use them for stock feed. Do not mix them with the better quality and demoralize the whole potato market. Because there is not sufficient market in Oregon this year for her potato crop, approximately 4,000 cars, it is estimated, must be shipped to outside markets, and in or der to find a ready sale and good price, the potatoes must be of good quality. Let every grower bear this in mind and hold himself responsible for the proper grading of his product before shipment." more money in payrolls in tlio manufacture of one automobile than our entire lumber industry of Oregon amounts to. Coos Bay Times. THE CHOSEN ARMY" Why not call It the "chosen" army? Why not call its mem bers the "chosen" soldiers? There seems to be a general do sire to get away from the word "drafted," and this Is justified. What term could better de scribe this great new army of men who have been selected to help make the world safe for democracy than "chosen?" Literally, they are chosen men. Chosen from their fellows to fight for freedom in the great est struggle of the ages. Chos en to measure the strength of their ideas against the brute force of might. Chosen for a really sacred purpose. And in a true way carrying out the Master's words, "For many are called but few are chosen." If you will turn to the book from which these are quoted you will find in the gospel of John other words from the same lips words which seem marvelously fitted to the rising up of this army. I nave chosen you and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain." No better or truer statement of the situation could be made. They are chosen to bring forth the fruit of victory. In this in stance the fruit of victory ;is. freedom. And they are offering themselves in order that this freedom shall- remain.

OREGON PRODUCTS OREGON PEOPLE FOR No individual making bis home in Oregon can say to himself "I have no interest in bigger payrolls for Oregon." In some way or other every person in this state is benefited by circulation of payroll money. In past years, and even now, Oregon's effort has been prin cipally directed to marketing the natural resources of the state and paying no attention to building up payrolls. Consumers and merchants must give preference, on terms of equal price and quality, to products of our factories. If the manufacturers of Ore gon can grow to a size that will enable them to reach out into other states, the increased busi ness means bringing just that much more money into the state in which the payroll is maintained. We have formed a habit of thinking that the lumber in dustry is the. backbone and jibs of all our prosperity, and yet Several singly factories Jn com paratively small , Eastern cities carry more people and pay. out Classified Ads For Sale, Rent, Wanted, Etc.
