HELPING THE DAIRY BUSINESS.
(Editorial from Grants Pass, Ore., Courier of August 2, 1912 )
The dairy industry at West Stayton, in Marion county, has
been given a decided impetus by the action of the Willamette
Valley Irrigated Land company, in providing the settlers on ir
rigated tracts with f uncla to buy all the milch cows they can feed,
paying the amounts in monthly payments out of cream checks.
This is the right kind of enterprise, and now, that we are re
minded of it, it will not be out of place to invite capitalists of
Grants Pass to go do likewise. It takes all kinds of people to
make a world, and a community is made up in the same way.
Men with irrigated farms are the right kind of people for our
bankers and other men of money to stand by when there is an
opportunity to build up our country.
The dairy business is one of the most profitable industries
that can be taken up in this section, and it certainly should be
encouraged. We need a large number of cows on farms that are
already provided with irrigation, and it is safe to say that there
are few undertakings which will bring better returns. It has
been thoroughly demonstrated that this is a country in which al
falfa grows to perfection, and with plenty of this forage a dairy
business can be carried on most successfully.

ADVERTISING OREGON.
"Advertising Oregon and the Northwest in the East will be
continued the corning year with renewed vigor," said A. C.
Jackson, advertising manager for the O.-W. R. & N., who has re
turned from a meeting of the traffic department heads of the
rrt'r HirHman system in New' York.
"ThM I tcrature distributed at the land shows has done much
g'jtul. M'd (he people of the Middle West as far east as Chicago
!ihv" ix-i'i very successfully reached by our advertisements.
"I'mLiiOi eflst, where there have been fewer land shows, .the
circulation of our general, advertising has been to a certain de
gree less effective.
"We are, however, reaching the far Easterners through other
channels and will interest more of them this fall and next year.
"Our lecture bureau has been of great assistance.
"Our general plan of campaign will awaken more interest in
Oregon, especially among the residents of New York and other
Atlantic coast states.
"It will be educational, in a way, and thoroughly exploit our
wonderful resources.
"While the travel to the Pacific slope has been heavy this year,
duo to the many conventions held west of the Rocky
Mountains, I feel confident that there will be a greater travel
westward the coming year.
There will be many visitors who will be interested in seeking
investments, and among others will be those seeking permanent
residence among us. 1
"The O.-W. R. & N. will continue its campaign of education, and
aid materially in substantial development."
BADEN-POWELL'S IMPRESSIONS OF AMERICAN BOYS.
Sir Robert S. S. Baden-Powell, after six weeks spent in Ameri
ca, was especially impressed by the American boys.
He visited probably 75,000 or 100,000 boy scouts of America
and had an opportunity to scrutinize the boys carefully and
closely.
"The American boy," he writes, as a result of his visit, "is
singularly bright, self-reliant and sharp beyond his years, as
compared with his European brother.
"He is splendid material, if there were only added to a char
acter of self-control, discipline, thoroughness, chivalry and ca
pability for sticking to his job.
"His good qualities I could seo for myself, but my attention
was drawn to his defects by numbers of Americans having dif
ferent points of view from which to judge him.
"These were men who saw value in scouting, which I had not
previously realized.
"I had thought that in the case of British boys, and still more
In the case of some of our continental neighbors, the training
might be expected to help the development in them of manliness,
self-reliance, alertness and other such qualities, whereas in the
American boy these already appear to exist.
"But it was shown me that, whereas tho old world boy may
want pushing on and waking up, the new world boy rather needs
liolding in, and the inculcation of discipline and the sense of
duty to others which he docs not otherwise get.
"So if scouting really helps to bring about some of these it
will be a work of national value "

ALL UNDER

Believing that the various state In

vantage under one board than two or
three, Governor Wem has announced
that he will make such a recommend
ation to the next leglHlature In hln
message,
At present the state board controls
the two asylums, feeble minded and
reform school. The educational board
controls the deaf niuto school and the
blind school; and the governor has
control over the soldiers' home and
the penitentiary. He believes that by
putting them all under one board
much waste that goes on now can be
eliminated and the Institutions gen

efficiency.

NEAR HALLS FERRY
While passing along the road to
Independence last night near Hall's
forry, George Cherrington, who was
accompanied by a number of pass
engers, noticed an automobile burn
ing In the road, The auto, which Is
a Ford delivery wagon, belongs to
Wm, II. Nichols, of 1746 South Lib
erty street. The gasoline tank had
evidently exploded, with the result
that the entire combustible part of
the machine was destroyed. .
As far as we are able to learn no
one was Injured, but at the time Mr.
Cherrington discovered the machine
there was no one there, and a search
did not roveal any one about the dein
nged auto.
Mr. NlcholB is a solicitor In the rur

ELECTRIC STORM IS
FOLLOWED BY RAIJ
Following a dny of high humidity
and sultriness, last night about 8
o'clock an electric storm of more than
ordlnnry proportions visited Salem
and vicinity. The lightning was vivid
and almost constant, but the thunder
wus not of much consequence. Light
rains fell In the early part of the ev
ening and during the night, but to
ward morning they became heavier
unlll this morning when heavy and
frequent Bhowers fell.
A great deal of damage Is likely to
result from tho showers unless the
weather should turn off clear, as In
the hop yards tha lice are becoming
prevalent and the honey dew Is on the
Increase. The owners of the yards,
nte, however, spraying their yards and
every effort Is being put forth to pre
vent the spread of lice and honey dew.
