The products of western factories will go on parade throughout Ore gon the week of November 17 to 24. Plans have just been completed by the Oregon Manufacturers associa tion for a statewide campaign to en courage the more extensive use of these goods with the idea of build ing state payrolls and Increased de mands for the raw materials ot farm, stream, forest and mine. On page two ot this issue the local merchant’s have tied in with this state-wide campaign by advertising Oregon made products. Banners are being displayed along with Oregon products displays in windows of the local business houses. The campaign is being headed by former Mayor George L. Baker of Portland, who now is manager of the Oregon Manufacturers associa tion. Through the medium of news papers, radio, magazines, window displays, mass meetings and special sales, the importance to Oregon of a concentrated support of the pro ducts of western factories will be driven home. The factories are cooperating to the extent of providing the stores with advertising, window displays, and products with which to conduct special sales. It is their purpose to show the people of Oregon that the products of our own western facto ries are the equivalent of those of other sections and that by discrim inating in favor of them, the state is being built up in payrolls, em ployment, and general prosperity. “It is not just a week of sales of western products,” explaines Mana ger Baker, “but a campaign to show our people the importance of sup porting their own factories in pref erence to those of sections doing us no good. We hope to build up the demand for western products and to make that demand permanent. By so doing, we will increase payrolls and will create a greater field for in dustry here. This is very essential with completion of the Bonneville power project coming upon us.” Watch for the sign, “Let’s Sell Oregon to Ourselves.” J. G.

Motoring to Klamath Falls last Friday, Mr. and Mrs. B. Haneline spent a very enjoyable week end visiting their son and daughter-in- law, Mr. and Mrs. Herbert Haneline. A side trip or two to the south of Klamath Falls revealed many scenic spots of beauty and interest, among the latter being the Tulelake lava caves, which are maintained by the government as a wild bird preserve. Here the wild game birds seek refuge and are to be seen in great flocks, the wild geese at this period greatly outnumbering any other specie. The visitors were amazed at the myriads of geese seeking protection, food and rest at this preserve, before continu ing their migratory flight. Approaching the crater, Mr. Shas ta loomed a little to the right in the foreground. After reaching this spot, they were afforded a view of a natural bridge formed by the rock having fallen away. Here also Is the historic battleground of the Modoc Indian war. In this vicinity is the shortest river in the world, only one- half mile in length, linking Klamath lake with Ewald lake. During their stay in Klamath county, the weather was fair but on the return trip they drove through snow “in the Rogue River national forest. At* this point there were many snow markers along the high way, some standing as high as eight feet. A dense fog along the Colum bia highway prevented the travelers from reaching Hermiston until late Tuesday evening. AGENT FOR SHELL OIL COMPANY WM. HANNAN DIES IN J. G'.
