COLUMBIA COMPARED
WITH THE ILLISUS
(From Portland. Ore., Journal.)
"Athena and the Art of Greece, "
was the subject of an illustrated lec
ture given recently before the Y. M. C.
A. by Professor J. B. Horner, of the
Oregon Agricultural College. The lec
ture was a Sunday afternoon trip
through Athena, which the speaker
mentioned aa the alma mater of poetry
and religious art.
The river Illisus, on which Athena ia
located, ia famed in mythology and his
tory; yet in the month of August the
entire stream flowing into an ordinary
oaintub would till it in about five min
utes. If Homer made ao little a river
famous, the query arises, what could
he have done bad he seen a Columbia
to write about? But while the Greeks
had a Homer, they have no Columbia,
We have a Columbia but no Homer.
Yet the time ia coming when we shall
have not only a Columbia, but also a
Homer. Then the Columbia will be
come classic.
Tihe king and queen sit on their
thrones at the head of the great sta-
aium at Alliens, because it is known
that the Grecian youth stand the test
better when they know the eyes of the
King ana tne queen are upon them,
Hence the importrance of the royal
presence at the stadium.
The commonest Greek at the stadium
has heard of ForreBt Smithson, the
Oregon boy who was discovered and
trained by the masterful Trine on the
Oregon Agricultural college campus.
It was common in the Baccanalian
games to award the'prize to the win
ning tribe in the name of the leader
and trainer a practice which may yet
oe aaopieu oy colleges and universities
in Oregon.
Ruins of the temple of Esculapius at
the foot of the Acropolis are amply in
evidence. Here the sick came to con
sult the noted physician, for the temple
naa become essentially a hospital. The
patients were placed upon couches
when they slept, after imbibing a quaff
of water from the spring near by. On
the following morning they were asked
to relate their dreams of the night.
These dreams were carefully diagnosed'
and Esculapius precsribed accordingly.
Such was the beginning of medical
practice in Greece.
The parthenon was alluded to as a
virgin's chamber, having been erected
in honor of Athena, the beloved god
deBS. The audience was then reminded
that a virgin was the benefactress of
Moses, the champion and deliverer of
his race; the vestal virgin attended the
sacred fire at Rome, a very high relig
ious office; and the mother of the Sa
vior was a virgin. Hence the Greeks
in their masterpiece the parthenon
were abreast of the world in their trib
ute to the chastity of virginity.
The prison of Socrates, having been
chiseled in stone, is well preserved, and
it is visited more than any other prison
in Greece, because it was in this prison
that the aged philosopher, unaided by
the Bible or inspiration, thought out
the immortality of the soul, which is
regarded as the greatest mental act
ever performed by man.
The speaker dwelt at length upon
the advancement that is being made in
modern scuplture, alluding particularly
to the monument to Grecian Triumphs,
designed by George Bonanos, of Ath
ens. The structure, when completed,
will be 60 feet high and 100 feet long,
nd it will be the most ambitious Greek
structure since the completion of hte
parthenon. Numerous pieces of modern
sculpture which are on exhibition in
the museums and art galleries of Eu
rope were cited as evidence that the
Greek mind is rising again to the con
templation of the divine, which it once
chiseled in stone.

LONDON DOES NOT
LIKE SMALL BOXES
The Northwestern Fruit Exchange
has been canvassing the anble trade of
j London to ascertain whether the small
apple box will be popular. It is the
I general opinion that the small package
! will not prove successful. Their rea
sons given are as follows:
That portion of the fruit trade in
London which pays the highest prices
is that which caters to the require
ments of the west-end clubs, hotels,
etc. The preparation of this fruit is
quite a special business and entails the
use of a variety of packages of differ
ent sizes and shapes according to the
requirements of the idientele of any
particular dealer. These dealers buy
their apples and pears from us in the
usual export cases and are prepared to
pay the highest price for the best arti
cle. It is extremely unlikely that a
small box such as suggested by you
would be any advantage to them over
the bushel box, and if the latter worked
out cheaper by comparison.thcre would
be very little demand for the small
boxes.
Should the high class trade be dull at
any time, as is it on occasions, on ac
count of the absence of wealthy classes
from town, we should be forced on to
the ordinary trade and be compelled to
accept prices which would not pay for
the extra cost of packing.
Although the above opinion is not a
very favorable one for the introduction
of a small box, should it be decided to
try the market with a few and thus
gain practical experience, a single
layer box, containing 12 apples, or pos
sibly 24, is suggested.

Soldiers Cause Excitement
When a score or more of regular U.
S. soldiers from Vancouver barracks
disembarked here from the Bailey Gat
zert last Saturday afternoon, some wag
started the report that Governor West
had placed the city under martial law.
No one seemed to know the reason, but
the report spread like wild-fire. The
soldier boys were spending the day on
an excursion up the Columbia. Many
went on to The Dalles.

Frosts Hurt English Apples
The May frosts damaged all fruits
in England, and the June weather has
been unafvorable. The trade predicts
50 per cent of an apple and black
cherry crop. Late varieties of cooking
apples were badly damaged. Pears and
plums are estimated at about 75 per
cent of a normal yield.
A bad taste in the mouth comes from
a disordered stomach, and back of that
is usually a torpid liver: A condition

Fruit trees in the parks of towns and
cities throughout the united Mates as
a means to make living better and
cheaper, is a proposal to the American
aociety ol thrift in Chicago which will
have serious consideration.
This takes rank with another propos
al that the plan adopted in many parts
oi Europe and some parts or this coun
try, of lining country roads with fruit
trees be adopted here also; the fruit to
defray the cost of upkeep of the public
roads, the idea or putting more fruit
trees into the parks was proposed by a
Chicago pastor who has been awakened
to the moral importance or thrift
Uther pastors, rectors and priests are
taking up cudgels against the extrava
gance of the day and in some cases co
operating with the thrift movement,
launched by the hociety lor lhritt.
Kev. Aimer Pennewel advocated fruit
trees in parks, saying: "It is said that
King Solomon made gardena and parks
and planted all manner of fruit trees in
them. I have thought a great deal
more of Solomon since I read that.
Why not have fruit trees in our parks
from which the multitude may pluck
fruit and eat while they rest and
play?"
Causes of Stomach Trouble
Sedentary habits, lack of out door ex

THE BENEFITS FROM
DAIRY INSPECTION
(From Bulletin of Dairy and Food
Commission.)
The changea that have taken place
in the dairy industry in Oregon since
pioneer days are of two kinds. : vig.,
changes due to modern appliances that
have a tendency to commercialize the
inausiry, and changea for the better
along sanitary lines.
Nearly live years ago the first ays
tematic dairy inspection in Oregon b.
Ran. The changea due to modern ap
pliances had been largely wrought pre
vious to the advent of the inspector.
The sanitary improvement came 'jince.
The need for dairy inspection guw in
directly out of the commercializing of
the industry.
In olden times nearly every family
owned a cow. In fact, the cow
was an indispensible member of the
family. The few families that were
ftilhuot cows were supplied with milk
and butter by a nearby neighbor whose
premises were under daily surveillance
in a neighborly way. If the conditiona
were not satisfactory, the family pur
chasing had first hand knowledge of
the fact, and could easily shift their
patronage to another neighbor. In
those days dairying was done on a small
scale, with very meager equipment.
Each dairy stood out aa an individual
unit, marketing the finished product
from a single farm.
The centrifugal cream separator and
its accessories made it possible to man
ufacture butter more economically on a
largei scale, and now a hundred dairy
men, and in some cases a thousand, are '
dumping their cream, so to speak, in
me one vat. to be churned into butter ;
at the central plant. Even the major !
portion of the milk and sweet cream 1
that is distributed about the big cities 1
is the product of laree number of
dairies, each shipping daily to a dis-;
tributing plant, there to be mixed with '
the product of manv other farms and
its identity lost forever.
Simultaneously with this change
came the intlux to the city, reducing
the proportionate number of producers
and greatly increasing the number of
consumers. Thus the crowded citv
consumer has no longer the choice of
dairyman from whom to purchase his
milk and butter; he must buy from the
common market that represents numer
ous dairies. The incentive on the part
of the producer to please the individual
consumer is also largely destroy
ed by virtne of the mixinc of the
product with that of other dairies over
which he has no control. These condi
tiona have a tendencv to auement the
already had conditions on the average
dairy farm, and it became necessary to
exercise soe sort of public supervision
to offset the effects of dimiBhing care
due to the above changea.

A. I. Mason says he would give
$500 for a big oak tree in his front
yard. Many a buyer of a home often
pays more than this for the effect
shade trees, hedges and flowers give.
Roadside trees are another thing
that adds greatly to the looks of a
country district. We should save our
roadside trees always, not just when
it is convenient. Our original beauty
is what first attracted buyers to Hood
Hiver, and later ones have in some in
stances not found the home spot
where they were looking for.
Buyers are far apart, not only here,
but everywhere. However if the Col
umbia River road should be opened,
a class of home people will bo attract
ed here, who will care nothing much
whether the orchard makes 6 percent
or 205. They will come in looking for
attractive home spots, therefore it
behooves us all to do what we can, if
the road goes through, to help make
our Valley even more attractive, by a
little attention to these details.
