POIlTtiAND, Ore, Fob. 13 The
oponlng session of tho Ihlnl annual
Oregon Irrigation congress was glrm
a sensation today when William llau
ley, after Mayor Albee bad delivered
tho formal address of welcome, su
mlttod his rcslgallon as president and
invited Asa 11. Thompson, first vice
president, to tako tho chair. Tho
resignation was accepted.
"I've got this political bee buzilns
In my bonnet," said Hanlcy, referr
ing to his candidacy for United
States senator, "and I don't Intend
to head any of these organizations un
til It loaves me."
This year's mooting of tho con
gress will chronicle tho definite turn
ing of Oregon Irrigation forces from
tho boosting and speculative to th?
constructive and permanent, accord
ing to delegates.
Not a dissenting word was given
tho proposition that union of federal,
state and Individual strength in get
ting water to arid lands for tho bene
fit of real settlers Is tho proper pres
ent policy.
Words were spoken favorable to
Govornor West's plan of stato or fed
eral and stato co-operation in devel
oping irrigation projects. Other ox
prcsslons were heard advocating
strong support of tho bill for J 100,
000,000 to be used in reclamation
which Secretary of tho Interior Lane
desires congress to pass.

For pastry there is nothing to
compare with
Cottolene
Cottolene "creams up" beautifully, always, and ovory
cook knows what an advantago that is. It is always
plastic and blends readily with tho flour or sugar.
This makes Cottoleno especially pleasant to uso in
cakes, pastry, sauces, biscuits and tho liko.
Have you tried Cottolene yet? If not, do at least
test it for yourself. You will then understand
some of its many advantages. At tho same
time, do not forgot that food oxperts advo
cate this wholesome shortening as ro
liablo, economical and digestible.
