G. Ide. secretary of th e Oregon S ta te C ham ber of Com m erce. We respectively ask Mr. Ide to consult th e Lane County A gricultural O ut­ look conference report and then tell us just w hat crops we should grow on our portion of the IS or 20 million acres to m ake a profit. We c an 't find a single m ajor crop recom m ended for in­ creased acreag e in th is pessim istic report. We would like to see m ore people on the land In Oregon, population is the one thing we need m ost, but until we can develop profitable m ark ets fo r farm produce we cannot expect to m ake m uch headw ay in land settlem ent. No com m unity ever becam e g reat by a g ricu l­ tu re alone. Industry m ust go along w ith it. We believe our real salvation in Oregon is to strive to develop m ore industries using ou r basic products, and industries, because of th eir n atu re, th a t will prosper even at a long distance from their m arkets. W hen industries develop in our cities th en the farm er will find local m ark ets to tak e care of his surplus products and he can m ake m oney. Once the farm er is m aking m oney it will be easy to settle ou r lands. O nce the land is m ore thickly settled o th er kinds of industries th a t depend on a m ark et n e a r at hand will find it in Oregon. • • • THINGS LOOKING V P FOR TH E FARMERS Indications are th a t the fa n n e r will fare b e tte r during th e next y e a r o r so th an he h a s for the p ast two or three years. Prices of farm products a re on th e upw ard trend and while yet early crops a re predicted good for this year. Wool h a s been co n tracted in m any in stan ces fo r 40 o r 42 cents a pound. M ohair a t 37 cents. G rains and fru its are looking up too. Over th e -whole co u n try econom ists find th a t farm products have increased on an average about 10 per cent and th a t th in g s the farm er has to buy have decreased in price ab o u t 10 per cent also, giving a spread to th e p urchasing pow er of th e farm er of 20 per cent. W hat is tru e th e c o u n try over is likely to be the condition locally in the W illam ette valley. Our farm ers have not had a n adequate re tu rn for som e tim e past but th in g s look b e tte r for th eir fu tu re. • • • D ark patch es under th e eyes, according to a m edical theory, m ay be due to defective teeth, but probably m oré of them are caused by a m o m en t’s delay in dodging.' • • • A w om an’s intuition is m arvelous, sure enough, b u t just th e sam e she burns the to ast now and then. • • • A nother point in which m arriage is like w ar is th a t the first fourteen y ears a re the hardest. • • • The oddest thing about th e secrets of success is th a t th ey ’re told everyw here.
