learned that the “Mellowest" cheese
which is manufactured by the league

three to five points higher than the
famous Tillamook cheese. It is the
belief of F. A. Baker a member of the
Board of Directors which met recent
ly In Portland, that the Stanfield
creantejy will in the near future be

handled by that plant supplied by
dairymen, a good portion of which
is gathered throughout the Columbia

BOARDMAN RESIDENT TELLS
PORTLANDERS OF ALFALFA
“There will be only three crops of
alfalfa this year and there were only
three crops last year, and the reason
is that there has not been enough
warm weather," declares Colonel Em
mett Callahan of Boardman. Or., who
Is at the Hotel Portland, having at
tended the officers’ training camp at
Camp Lewis. The colonel is raising
alfalfa and potatoes on hiB farm and
sighs as he says that there Is no mar
ket. The price for alfalfa hasn’t been
fixed yet and as for spuds, everyone,
apparently, is growing them. “Al
falfa,” elucidated the colonel, "Is the
greatest forage i^ant In the world.
The earliest record of it is when the
horses of the Roman legions began
eating it somewhere In Asia. It was
not cultivated in those days, but later
It was introduced into Africa and the
Spaniards introduced it Into South
America. A banker friend of mine
told me that when he was checking
over a manifest of a vessel which ar
rived in Portland last, year he
found 43,000 sacks of alfalfa seed,'
which had been shipped from Turkey
and was destined for somewhere In
Minnesota or Michigan. If the Turku
could export that amount of alfalfa
seed In one vessel, they must be doing
something else than make war.”—

THE LADDER OF LIFE
THE VITAL THEME OF
“THE LADDER OF LIES”
Ethel Clayton’s Latest Starring
Vehicle Has Powerful and
Lofty Appeal
Have yon ever climbed a ladder
that rested in soft earth or on an
unsteady foundation and felt it
sway under you as you climbed up-
ard?
This same Illustration can be ap-
plied to the ladder of life. Before
people start climbing upward to hap
piness or prosperity, or any other de
sirable state, they should first be cer
tain that the ladder rest on a firm
foundation, which will not give way
and cause it to tall when they have
nearly reached the top.
This, briefly, is the theme of Ethel
Clayton’s 'new Paramount Artcraft
starring vehicle, “The Ladder of
Lies” which will be shown at the
Play House next Saturday. Jiily 16.
In this production. Miss Clayton is
seen as Edith Parrish, a young illus
trator, who seeks to prevent Peter
Gordon, from climbing a ladder of
happiness which is founded on the
deceit and lies of the woman he has
married. But the husband believes
she Is innocent and suspects, instead,
the girl who is trying to help him.
The story is filled with interesting
and moral force, and culminates in a
delightful and happy romance. Miss
Clayton is supported by an excellent
cast of players, which Includes Clyde
Fillmore, Jane Acker, Irving Cum- ,
mings, Richard Sterling and Ruth
Ashby, Tom Forman directed and
William Marshall was photographer.
