There are about 160 pipes in this
vicinity, on active service, that ought
to bo at the front in the Utah tobacco
war.
Only 1100 starving Russians arrivod
In this country last week, to keep on
starving.
A LADY TALKS
That woman Rot me down. If. I'm
anything I'm tender-hearted, and
when she started to boo-hoo! I did tho
same. I couldn't stand to sue them
hot tears washing away the powder
around, the sides of her nose, and
plunging off the end of her chin, so I
Rets sympathetic. It was the wot and
dry lBSiie for fair, and she was In
awful agony. So I said: Now! Now!
It will all come out in the wash. Dry
up that hollering, you're 19, and old
enough to face fate with a smile. That
yanked another squeal out of her, and
so I kissed her. She stopped bhittlng
then, once was enough. I wanted to
find out what was gnnwing at her
heartstrings, bo I asked. I thought
maybe somebody nt hor house had
died, or a. romance had wound up
wrong end to, like most of Elsio's do,
and 1 wanted to help out a sister In
sorrow; and besides I was curious.
Well, she sniffed a time or two, and
said, as she knocked off tho last tear:
"Ma won't let me go to the dance to
night" You don't want to hoar what
I said.
f ALIFORNIA lends the world in tho plnnting of trees along the
highways. New York stiite, .Minnesota, Michigan unci Indiumi
follow in the onler named. Orenon is I'm' down the list.
Of course, Oregon has less need than many other states for tree
plniitin"; for many seel ions are beautiful examples of the forest pri
mevnl. Hut many seetions iilonsr the I'aeil'ie highway are uncom
fortably hare, nnd in many parts of Jackson county within and
without the cities, a tree planting campaign would add much to the
attractiveness of the landscape mid the comfort of the residents,
transient and permanent. Many good citizens are rather short sight
ed when it comes to planting trees. They are inclined to look on
forty or fifty years as too long a period to wait fur results.
lint this is a decidedly selfish view point. The seedling of this
generation is the shade tree of the next. And working for the bene
fit of future generations will always be one of the real joys of an en
lightened human kind.
Arbor Day was established in 1872. Oregon celebrates the day on
ihe second Friday of April. A more general and spontaneous observ
ance of this day, with tree planting a permanent feature, would work
a decided benefit to this state and its people.

ing democratic leader, gave out a for
mal statement declaring that on pre
liminary study, "lie had a feeling of
friendliness" for the administration

ness" by tho administration In its for
eign policies .

tunate that tho president hud acted
so late In tho present session of con
gress. Ho also declared that tho plan
was a repudiation of tho policy ot non

resolution the matters outlined In tho

How to Solve Apple Problem
To the Kdltor:
Tho I'nclfle northwest produces n
superior quality of apples, but the
Hale of apples has been u very unsatis
factory thing to tho producer. Many
aro badly discouraged. In my opinion
this Ih due entirely to bud marketing
methods. On two occasions we have
attempted a conference in Portland to
remedy this condition. An organiza
tion to handle tho sale of tipples
should bo determined by the territory
from which tho apples come, rather
than by stnto or county lines. Such
nn organization should carry the fruit
from tho producer direct to the re
taller of fruits In tho markets of the
world, nnd should not ho an organi
zation to collect grndu and pnek
simply In order to turn over to some
sales organization the result, of their
efforts. I say thisi berauso it will
probably not bo practicable for the
producer to Bell IiIh applca directly
to tho consumer, nt least for a mini
her of years, but ho can organize,
seek out markets and control tho dis
tribution of his fruit by the retail:
dealer. I
Mr. Pavld It. Mefltnnts of Oakland.
California, a co-operator of long ex
perience nnd a member of the Jlaisin
Growers' association has returned I
from a trip to Central America. That
country produces no apples; when a
pretty girl is noticed on tho streets
of Ihicnos Aires bystanders say, "Isn't
she an apple," instead of calling her,
as wo do a "peach." Apples of tho
grade of our best boxed apple sell
in that city at &2o npieeo and the mar- (
itet for tipples In Central America Is
sufficient to take the enllro crop, not
only of tho Pacific Northwest, but
of the best grade nf apples of the'
rn(l,l Ul,it,.u Tlinun lilti.lnu rfllllll hf
shipped In refrigerated vessels from
Portland, travel all tho way ny water,
go Into cold slot-ago In Central Amer
ican ports, and be distributed from
there to the dealers of tho Central
American cities. If the reader will
tako a map of Central America and
make a list of the largo cities of that
country, he will seo at once that the
market possibilities are practically
unlimited. If tho apple growers of
the Pacific northwest would only sink
petty Jealousies nnd local pride In the
ilntilri in net for thn common uood.
wo can market our magnificent grade
or nonnwest noxeu apples ai a ngure
that will make the apple grower pros
pern lis, nnd this without any danger
from over-expansion In business,
