POPiTLANQ flEVJS LETTER IVr;;;!!.l. March 0.- lVlievirj that the ri iui:'.-r Summer wiU see a great er movement of tourists from the East and Middle West toward the Pacini' Coast than ever before, the niar.tvroment of the Portland Koso Festival is conducting an unusual, and so far successful, campaign to advertise the coming event. Indi vidual publications, as well as several newspaper syndicates in the East have asked f ir artic! 's and phot rt - : graphs descriptive of Portland anl: 'its roses, western publications of'al! ! classes are carrying similar stories, trade papers are falling into line, and everything indicates tnat the coming ! Festival w ill receive an unusal am- ' omit of publicity. i "The whole city of Portland is pe j ing organized back of the Festival j committee in a vast publicity cam paign" said Lloyd McDowell who has charge of this work, and special ef forts are being made to cary the pub licity into the East as it was never carried before. We are working an unusually large field with greater j energy, and I believe that the Festi j val scrap books at the end of the season will show a greater volume I of publicity for the 1915 event than j tor all the festivals that have preced- ed it. We aim to establish the truth of our slogan, that 'The Whole World Knows the Portland Rose.' " An event of great interest, not only to stock breeders of Oregon, but to those of the entire Northwest, will be staged in San Francisco on March 23-1-5-6 when the American Livestock Association holds its an nual c.onvrnlt.in. This meeting will b3 attended by representative stock- I men from all sections of the United iS'ates, matters of great importance to I the industry will be discussed, and it is earnestly desired that every stock raiser in the .West make a strong ef fort to be present. That times are improving and business again reaching normal pro portions is indicated by the demand which Western railrods are making on the lumbermen for material. The Union Pacific has recently placed an order for 1,200,000 feet of fir lumber to be delivered immediately to car shops in the East, and it is expected that a further order for 1,000,000 feet for the same road will be placed with mills in this section very soon. The District Forester at Portland has announced that an area of brush land sufficient to accommodate 20, 000 to 25,000 goats is now available on the western slopes of the Cascade range. It is believed that pasturing goats on these, lands will lessen the chances of fire by clearing olf the undesbrush, and that it will go far toward clearing the land for other purposes. If the experiment proves a success, other large tracts will be set aside for pasture. At Independence, on May 12th, about 150 head of Jersey cattle, many of them registered, will be sold at auction. The sale will be held under the auspices of the Polk County Jer sey Breeders Association. T. J. Matlock recently received some fine hogs from the T. ('. Burke farm near Salem. They are of the Poland China variety. Miss Katherine Clarke of Condon, is visiting at the home of her sister, Mrs. L. K. Harlan, in this city. at the close $513,773.61 4,S6.44 25,000.00 1,000.00 12,630.75 2.400.00 2,400.00 14.771M3 20,100.33 26,976.65 11,659.34 9,632.52 267.89 6,963.41 1,970.00 37.320.05 1,250.00 $!)(), 110.(12 $100,000.00 20,000.00 25,457.53 22,150.00 11.031.79 12,406.22 419,392.36 61,102.46 7,370.26 17,500.00 IC CO.

Padberg, Commissioner Salary 12.00 $3727.98 LACKDFBY-PRGQUGTSA DIN GH NORTHWEST The Pacific northwest spends an nually several million dollars for canned goods and dried fruits that are the pack of distant states. From California, from Maine, from New York, from Iown and many other far away communities these goods are brought by train and steamship, and payment for them imposes a perpet ual drain on every cjinmunity in the four northwestern states. The shelves of every grocery store are piled high with them. Back yards and town and city clumping grounds are strewn with emptied can reminders of our wastefulness for it is nothing else than waste when a rich and productive region, fruitful in high degree and smothering in a growing surplus of raw materials, permits enormous quantities of or chard and garden produce to decay for lack of market, while it continues year after year to drain off its money in the purchase of byproducts that should be packed at home. AstonishUig has been the growth in recent years of the canning indus try of the United States. According to official reports of the National Canners' association the tomato pack alone in 1914 is placed at 1 5.222,000 cases, a record production. The can ned corn output for the year va3 9, 7S9.000 cases. The pack of canned peas 8,847,000 cases. S. L. Jacobs, one of the largest packers of tomatoes and peas, says the outlook is that 1915 will be the largest in the history of the canned business, "although there has been a steady improvement each year in the past." The war has helped exports of canned goods, taking the greater part of the surplus stock besides a large part of current production. The domestic demand continues to im prove. The National Canners' association recently held its annual convention at New York, and was addressed by Edward II. Foot of Singapore. Mr. Foot went Into details upon the in viting possibilities of building up the canned goods trade with China. Con densed milk manufacturers, he .wid, have already made great inroads into that trade, and the future should de velop a fine field for all kinds of Am erican canned goods, as China has a population of nearly 500,000.000. With a home market that mint now be supplied by distant states, Alaska, on the eve of greater develop ment, cheap water transportation to China and Japan, and the Panama canal offering short cut to the mar kets of South America and Europe, the Pacific northwest offers a most inviting field for the building up of this important and enriching indus try. Nothing is lacking but the needed business enterprise. Soil, climate, rail and water transportation, mar kets all are here awaiting the touch of experienced hands. Our tardiness in making a fair start on a road that California has traveled so profitably and long stands a humiliating indict ment of our enterprise and thrift. Spokesman-Review. (1. P.
