Experimental Progress
What may prove a very import
ant conference of fruit producers
and shippers was held at the Eyer
ley airport Monday night of this
week to consider the establishment
of an experimental ari-freight
transport with headquarters here in
Salem.
The plan of aperation proposed is
the transportation of fruits and
vegetables delivering to the small
jobbing centers west of the Missis
sippi river. The capacity of the
transport planes will be approxi
mately 3 tons. The probable cost
is estimated at 5 cents per ton
mile a rate less than that charged
by the American Railway Express
company for transportation of sim
ilar produce via ten-ton refrigera
tor cars . The required temperature
furnished by ice in the refrigerator
car is a free and natural element
of the atmosphere in the altitude
of the air routes. The initial ex
perimental cargo will be limited in
volume.
The state department of agricul
ture through director Max Gehlar
called into the conference by its
sponsors, took an active part in the
consideration of the plans for this
unique and progressive experiment
in air-freight transportation.
Guernsey "Gaieteers" Celebrate
The Oregon Guernsey Galtles ev
ent including the first tour into the
southern part fo the state is in
progress this week. Among the
counties visited are Lane, Douglas
and Josephine. The "Gaieteers"
will be fittingly entertained on the
way by leading Guernsey breeders
of the sections visited.
CHI RCH OF CHRIST.
"MIDDLE GROUND"
There are many people in these
mdern days who like to retain at
least a semblance of Christianity,
while at the same time (apparently)
having at heart no use whatever for
the things for which Christianity
battles and stands; in every, com
munity!! Some of them are affected with a
smug self-sufficiency and a compla
cent self-satisfaction that would be
amusing were it not so futile and
silly. Others even go so far as to
say (even tho better than "well-off")
that they do not align themselves
with the Church because it is "too
expensive." A man in a certain
community refused to allow his son
to become a member of the Church,
but he did not hesitate to call on
the Church for Christian burial
when his son died. That is a very
common occurrence.
Then this day in which we now
live has developed a great class of
folk who are very fond of saying:
"No, I do not belong to the Church
but neither do I belong to the sin
ners." As though there were some
favored and easy "middle ground"
wherein they were privileged to
travel.
But it is when it comes time to
stand up and be counted on either
the side of CHRIST, or the side of
SIN, that our self-satisfaction and
our self-sufficiency is punctureu as
a worn-out tire; and we try to take
cover in the mirage of "middle
ground."
But there is no "middle ground":
God's Word settles that for us all,
for all time. In spite of all our
asservations we ARE on one side
or the other. None of our opinions
or guesses will ever change that!
If you have been putting off the
time of decision, be sure there is no
hotter time than NOW to decide
for Christ and His Church. If you
have not a church home, you are
invited to come and worship with
us. Come and begin the Lord's
Day in our Bible school, and be
here for the services of worship
The sermon topics for the coming
Lord's Day are; for the morning
worship, "Riches Thru Poverty,"
and for the evening worship, "In
A Far Country." Come, you are
invited. "He that is not with me is
against me; and he that gathereth
not with me is scattered." Matt.

Feeding Grain
More and more is heard the ad
vice to market wheat and other
grains through feeding it to live
stock. Demonstrations have gen
erally shown that in this way better
prices may be obtained while soil
fertility is increased.
Urgent Appeal
'For the market, produce only in
fertile eggs. Use every possible
means to keep their shells clean;
gather them often; store in a cool
place and pack with care," is the
urgent appeal published by the

Is one of the high lights of the com
lng Chautauqua program. Mr. An
derson is a football player who
won his letter at the University of
Missouri; a lawyer who has been
prosecutor aud judge in the Juve
nile court; a speaker who has
spoken over two hundred times in
his home town and Is In demand
on all sorts of occasions for miles
around, and a citizen who is so
much beloved by his fellow towns
men that he has three times been
elected mayor.
He has absorbed a good deal ol
Mark Twain's cheerful philosophy
and his lectures have an atmos
phere of kindly wit aud humor that
makes them always interesting to
hear.
At the same time, he hasn't lost
the old football fire that made him
a terror to the opponents of the
Missouri University team in the
days when he played on It
His two addresses are "Gold
Bricks'' which he will give In the
afternoon, and "Hit That Line," his
address at night
Mr. Anderson speaks both after
noon and evening on the fourth day
and to all lovers of the spoken
word he will be a real treat.

Honey
Increase in local consumption of
honey but less export is reported.
Little more than one-third the am
ount shipped to Germany, hitherto
the chief nation importing from the
Pacific norhtwest, was exported last
year on account, in part, of increas
ed tariffs levied against this product.
It is worthy of note that small
contaniers influence home and
neighborhood sales.
Oregon Grange Grows
The growth of the grange in Ore
gon is noteworthy. State Master
C. C. Hulet is credited with the
statement that it is leading every
other state in the union in the mat
ter of new units established since
November last year.
During March 1931 exports of
25, 1930, to May, 1931, thirty-eight
new granges have been organized
and one pomona and eleven juvenile
granges. The total net gain during
the year was 2562. The total mem
bership reached approximately 22,-000.
Meat Consumption Changes
Market statistics show that the
consumption of pork, beef and veal
are declining in volume while the
amunt of lamb and mutton consum
ed is on the increase. Lamb and
mutton show the largest gain in
production also, the former having
increased 50 per cent since 1922.
Livestock Show Scheduled
The twenty-third annual Eastern
livestock show Is scheduled for
next Wednesday, Thursday and Fri
day, June 10, 11 and 12 at Union.
Exhibits of beef cattle, horses, sheep
and swine from over eastern Ore
gon will be shown. More than $8000
in premiums will be awarded to
winning stock.
Jerseydom Honored
The fourteenth annual Oregon
Jersey jubilee is on this week. It
is the annual "open house" week
of the Jersey breeders of this state.
The event was opened by the
Clackamas County Jersey show at
Canby on Monday, followed by the
Marion county event at the state
fair grounds on Tuesday and the
Benton-Linn exhibit at Albany on
Wednesday. The last three days will
be featured by tours to the famous
Jersey herds of Yamhill, Washing
ton and Polk counties. Many of
the finest animals of Jerseydom will
Poultry Shipments
During March 1931 exprots of
poultry products were: poultry, live,
15,680 pounds; poultry and game
dressed, 399,504 pounds; eggs, in
shell, 795,294 dozen; eggs, dried or
frozen, 34,525 pounds.
Horses have always been used
during the eras of cheap farm pro
ducts and unless prices advance,
unquestionably many farmers will
go back to horses. Before the ad
vent of the tractor, the truck and
the automobile, one-fourth of our
total farm acreage was devoted to
the raising of horse feed. Gas mo
torization is really part of what is
wrong with agriculture. Some day
we will have a farm tractor or mo
tor that will run with some product
that comes from the distillation of
our farm surplus or wastes. Unless
we have a machine that will render
power from whit we raise or unless
we have a market that will pay us
a profit on what we raise, we must
go back to a form of farm motor
power that will consume our excess
products and help us rebalance our
agriculture. The horse is capable
of doing this. Dr. W. H. Lytle, veterinarian.
