FREIGHT RATES ARE PRSiDENT TALKS 49 PER GENT UP ' LIVING UP 100 pi 1 LftUUl 'WELSH NAPOLEON' ! : S CREDITED WITH ill, t CHICAGO. Dec. 4, In July. the latest month for complete data1 available the average railway freight rate In the rnite'i States was 4f per; cent higher than in the period from 1S90 to and the average whoj sale price of commodities was exactly 10'1 pr cent higher. This annotincemi nt based upon elaborate statistics show-: Ins the entire history of average rail way rates and average prices from 1S90 to Vj2 and taken from interstate; commerce commission and bureau of labor records was made by the '"Kail-1 way Ase" today. Iteferrinp to the fact ! that the most serious complaints re garding the present rates conies from the farmers the "Hallway As? shows that the average wholesale prices of J farm products are now 88 per cent; higher than from 1MQ to 1SK9. j "The average railway rate steadily declined", says the "Railway Ase". until HUT, and was then 15 per cent less than in the period from 1800 to i 1899. It was not until 1918 that a Ken-: eral advance in rates applying to all the railways was made and in that year average wholesale prices had in creased until they were 1G5 percent higher than the average from 1890 to i 3899." "The real reason why there is at present ko much complaint about al leged high railway rates is that for a loiif period of years shippers and pro-j ducers become accustomed to doiiiK i business on railway rates which were; steadily declining and prices which' wuio rapidly increasing. When they j complained now about lite relations hetwoen rates and prices they usually compare them with the relation which i existed In 19l; or 19to. Hut all rea-i son Ink', of this time, it Is most unfair and fallacious because for a long per-, iod before those years rates had been t declining and prices have been in- ( creasing to such an extent that rats had become unreaH mably low com-1 pared with prices. "At the present prices of commodities and the present; railway rates the producer or owner of j almost any commodity can buy far more railway freight transportation with any given amount of that com modity than he could have bought with it In any year prior, to 1910, and much more than he.cimld have bought at the avoruge rate and U'1ccb from 1S90 and WASHINGTON,- Dec. Th scene I resented in the house ciiambtir was rnprecedentod in that never in th1 hibtfry of the nation has a presi dent's message been delivered to congress by the rhh'f executive with members of a great international con ference in attendance. The galleries and corridors were jammed. Arrangements had been made by the state department for place fur delegates from foieiK" nations to the arms conference, their wives and delegation attaches. Secretary Hughes was given a warm reception when he arrived at the head of the cabinet. There was more applause when the conference delegates entered. Mem bers of the delegations were not grouped by countries. At the right of Speaker (liUett Rat Senator Cummins. president pro tempore of the senate. The audience rose and applauded Mrs. Harding wheii she appeared. Promptly at 12: 110 the president was announced. The audience rose and applauded for a full minute until Speaker Cil Iptte's gavel called for silence. The president's remarks drew ap plause ut the outset when he ex pressed gratification over the nation being at peace. . Again from : house members and others cume applause whim the ex ecutive promised help to other na tions in working out their problems. The president's statements regard ing agriculture Mini railroad rates were delivered without demount ra tiou, but there was considerable ap plause when Hut executive declared for regulation of labor organizations. The demonstration became pronounc ed when the president declared that labor organizations should not be per mitted to exact unfair terms or cause distress lo the public. The sugges tions for an industrial tribunal were followed intently. There was hearty applause whim the president conclud ed. I.uNDoX. !..... ;.

'. of Klamath County tule reclaimed land on the market and guarantees a square deal with buyers. The Land Is Unsurpassed in Its Productiveness Here are some facts: One tract produced this year 66 . bushels of hard wheat; another 51 bushels; and one tract ' -of 3C0 acres produced 6,000 sacks of rye; and you can fig ure for yourself as the value of such land. THE CROPS WILL PAY FOR THE LAND IN A FEW YEARS. MINT IS IG MONEY MAKER i i, . . . '.. . Willamette Valley Beaver Dam land has been growing ' ' mint and producing peppermint oil for several years at good profit and the experienced growers are changing lo cations from the Willamette Valley to the reclaimed lands near, Klamath Falls. Climate and soil conditions in Klam-. ' ath County are decidedly excellent for unusually profitable production of mint, as well as celery, onions, and in fact anything that grows. One of the Todd Brothers, pioneer mint growers, who have made millions on tule reclaimed lands in Michigan, exam ined into conditions in the Willamette Valley and Klamath County last summer, and pronounced these tule reclaimed lands of Klamath County the richest and most adaptable in the world for mint production, and predicts that KLAM ATH TULE LANDS WILL CONTROL THE WORLD MARKET OF MINT OILS IN A FEW YEARS. Wheat and rye, onions, etc., must be planted each year, but A FIELD OF PEPPERMINT IS GOOD FOR SEVEN YEARS with no more cultivating than alfalfa. - .' Sixty pounds of mint per acre at $3 per pound is an ordin ary record. Arid the crop is easily harvested and marketed. ! ;; 17,500 acres in mint in the U. S., and the chewing gum fac- I' tories use the production of 12,000 acres. The demand for , mint oils is increasing. The Door of Opportunity Is Now Open Now is the time to get this land at a price that will surely . . . . '. ' double in a short time. Mint crops will yield as high as ' ' . ' $200 per acre. We Are Prepared to Show You Facts The tract of land that Mr. Jacobs is putting on the market . '"-..: will bear inspection, and we are prepared to show you a -real bargain, and will be glad to go into details with you if you are inclined to make some money easily and legiti mately. You Get the Real Thin g for Your Money , Mother Earth There will be several hundred acres sold to the first appli- '; " ' cants on the following terms: ' V One-third cash and balance on long time at 5 per cent inter est, AND IT IS QUITE PROBABLE THAT CROPS FROM THE LAND WILL TAKE CARE ALL DE FERRED PAYMENTS. WE WILL ENTER INTO CONTRACT TO CARE FOR YOUR ACREAGE and pay you a cash rental for five years, and turn the land over to you in full bearing mint.
