We give af Stamp, Bank Advertisement No. 13 A CONFESSION When we published our first advertising let ter three months ago, there were at least two things we didn't know of this kind of publicity: First, we underestimated the value of prin ter's ink and we take pleasure in acknowledging at this time that to our certain knowledge the people do read at least some of the advertise ments. No one ever mentioned having seen the display ad which we carried with painful regu larity for so many years and we did not expect the nattering comments which have been made since we changed our plan. Second, we also underestimated the amount of work that is connected with a series of this kind and we are now fully aware that the task of giving you something new to read each week is no small one, but we have a lot of things to say yet and we think most of them will be worth the one minute a week that it will require to read them Our customers naturally prefer the letters of a general nature and wejdon't blame them, for a steady diet of general banking, savings depart ment, safe deposit boxes, travelers checks, and the solemn duty of Making Your Will would get tiresome. With the exception of an occasional number to call your attention to some branch of our work, the general letters will serve our pur pose quite as well; for after all we only want you to know that this bank is capably and honestly managed, that our office force is courteous and efficient, that your funds deposited with us are safe guarded by all the protection a good bank can offer to its customers, and that we want all of the business of this community that we can honorably get BUTLER BANKING COMPANY CANNERY MEN ANNOUNCE PLAN PLANT TO BE READY BY SPRING D.

C J011NSEN, the Hood River Shoe Man Valley, Too, Will Rave Co-Operative Creamery Saturday Actios Pres umes Benefits to Valley and City Saturday was an eventful day in Hood River. With E. . Cloud, for merly superintendent of Reed, Mur dock & Co., cannera of Chicago, an nouncing that be wot.ld have ready for this season a strawberry crop a can nery. and with 200 orcharding and Dusiness men oi me cuy ana vauey taking action toward the building cf a cooperative creamery, results toward which the members of the Commercial club, the busineas men of the city and the ranchers or the valley have been looking forward for number of years, were realised. So auletly has Mr. Cloud been mak ing his negotiationa here through the Manufacturer a committee of the Com' mercial club for the past 90 days, that his definite announcement came Satur day, night as great surprise to many, With the former Chicago cannery man will be associated John K. Newton, manager of the Pacific coast branch of the K. M. Kellogg Co., of Three Riv era. Mien. Both were here Saturday and have been conferring as to the construction of the proposed 120x10 feet concrete plant and 20x40 power nouse. 'We will be ready to handle the product of this year., said Mr. Cloud. "It ib our intentiou to work with the orchardj&ta and to can all vegetables that may be grown profitably between me trees. The new cannery will be built on the lot east of the Fashion Liverv Com pany's barn and will be located on a spur of the Mount Hood railroad. Mo meeting has ever created more enthusiasm tban that at which the creamery was discussed last Saturday. ibe manufacturing committee of the Commercial club, the members of which called the meeting, could have aecured no no better man than Chris Mvhre. of Junction City, to tell of the methods to be used in establismngza cooperative creamery. Mr. Mynre is a big live bunch ol thinking energy and his talk, in his own peculiar impressive manner. caused undivided attention from the first. He gave a brief history of the cooperative creamery business, telling of its rise In Denmark, and the unprec edented prosperity that Denmark had enjoyed since its rural residents had banded themselves together for the purpose of manufacturing butter. He lout or tne establishing oi sucn plants in Minnesota. "It has beeu no easy tbing for ranchers," he said, pointiiig out dimcutlies that had to be sur mounted, when big centralised com petitive concerns attempted to break down the cooperative efforts of the farmer. In whatever industry growers may have banued themselves together for cooperative purposes, the talk of Mr, inyhre was good tonic, tie got straigni at things without beating the Devil about the bush. His speech, which covered the growth of the cooperative dairy business here in Oregon, the butter making industry and cheese manufacturing, was not compluted at the noon hour, and he was given the floor again in the afternoon, when the growers had returned irom their lunches, in 15 minutes alter ha had finished his address and had instructed the committee on organisation as to nroDer methods to be used, the sura of $1500 of the proposed $5000 capital stock bad been subscribed, and owners bad signed up to furnish the cream from 278 cowa for the new enterprise, The committee appointed by Chair man .Mitchell is composed of J. P. Tbomsen, A. W. Peters, 11. G. Zillia cus, W. U. E. smith, C. E. uomn M. O. Doe and A. r . Bickford. They will make a thorough canvass of the valley and the subscribers to stock and all interested parlies will hold a meet ing on Saturday. March ii. Mr. Mynre is or the opinion mat it is necesary to have 400 cowa before the creamery can be successfully operated, However.from the expression oi grow era -who are conversant with the seati ment in the valley, the orchardists will quickly subscribe this number. Mr, Mvhre showed how valuable tne addi tion of cowa would be to the orchard ists. W. H. Paulbamus, of raspberry fame in Washington, he said, urged the mowers of that district to raise more cows. The value of the fertilizer is almost inestimable, he declared. ' In hia speech of introduction, Mr Mitchell called attention to the faet that the banks of the city and the business men would be ready to aid the growers in the advancement of aucb an enterprise. "The officers of the Commercial club are jubilant." said President Heilbron ner Saturday night. "We have been working toward matters of this kind for years. It has been realised that a payroll will be of great benefit to Hood River valley. The two new en terpriset will be of greatest benefit to alt in the county." "I have never been received any where any better than here0 at Hood River." says Mr. Cloud. "The mam' beri of the Commercial club have shown me every courtesy. I have been investigating Hood River since 1909. About two years ago I met C.J Calkins, manager Jof the Hood River Appto Vinegar Co. It was he who in troduced me to the club and to J. H Heilbronner, ita president Mr. Calk ina, I assure you. bss always been good booster for the community."

Thia grand, central, all important event, around which the play is centered, waa brought about by the unflagging energy of ber doting parents, the sorely tried 'dress maker and a crowd of exceedingly ani mated schoolmates. Ihe parts were all well chosen, each pupil making hia partjvery unaffected and natural. The bubbling epirits :of the school friends, tbelr atartlwiely original? farewell gifts, the painful anxieties of the father and mother cause many laugh able situations.

Editor Glacier: Why all thia burr to vote a large bonded debt? Are we ready for bonds? Hasjthe county eourt plans for spending it to good advan tage? Have the members of the court taken steps to outline a definite system of road work or have they determined aa to what kind or roads should be built in each section and as to how tbe money shall be spent for the best in terests of the county aa a whole? Or is it to get the money and spend it in any way? If the eourt ia too weak kneed to go ahead, or if they feel themselves incompetent to do so, which is no disgrace, it aeema mat it would be folly to place that amount of money at their disposal. When county court calls for little district conven tions to give it instructions to spend the little tax money we have, had we not better wait with a bond issue until they decide that the making of plana and the building of roads be placed under the sopervision of men who have been trained for that work? Let them go on record somewhere, and if they are right the voters will atand by them. Recaller.
