HOW TO CATCH THE "BIRDS IN

OTHER BIRDS ARE NOT
ALWAYS WORTH
CATCHING

The successful men and women
of these days have thoroughly dis
credited the old maxiom that "a bird
in the hand Is worth two in the
bush"
They have demonstrated that "the
birds In the bush" are the really
valuable ones-and worth all the
effort It takes to catch them; and
that THEY CAN BE CAUGHT.
Every successful business venture
In this city was once "BIRD IN A
BUSH," and many people passed II
by, preferring the smaller but less
illusive gsme-the bird In the
hand"
The history OF every successful
store In the city Is essentially the
same-the story OF hunting the shy
and disappearing bush birds" In

for 100000 wheat sacks, while
Washington farmers paid but $780,.
900 for the same number or In
other words. the state jute plant at
Walla Walla saved the farmers OF
Washington $4,000 on 100000
sacks. the number used in Una
tilla county.
cat least 100000 wheat sacks
were used in Oregon this year, for
which Oregon farmers we're forced
to pay the sum of 100000 or an
average of 10 cents each.
"The same number of sacks made
by the Washington state jute mill
cost the farmers OF Washington but
$390,000 at 6h cents each, or
100000 less than the Oregon farm
ers were forced to pay. This means
that the jute trust took 100000
from the Oregon farmers unjustly
this year. This sum would be suffi-
tlthI W eStdDllSh idi sc JuIV biohe

The only argument that has ap-
peared so far against a jute mill, is
that Oregon has not enough pris-
oners to equip and operate a large
enough plant TO make any impress
sion on the situation.
1t is not denied that jute bagging
has become a big item of expense
to the grain grower, and It is not de-
MED that the GRAIN GROWERS OF
OTHER STATES ARE HELPED to
market their products by state jute
mills.

"The city was authorized by the
last legislature to incur an Indebted
ness of $4,000 FOR PARK AND IL
BRARY PURPOSES. OF this amount
the city expended $4,000 for the
Carnegie library grounds and will
pay $4,000 on the park grounds
This leaves the city the liberty to
expend the further sum of $4,000 on
parks and libraries. 1t was the in
tentlon of the council to purchase
two parks, but the reserve fund will
not permit of this at the present
time. II is highly probable that the
city will have a second park at no
distant day, one that will be as salts

ready selected.
Time will prove the wisdom of
Eugene in securing available
pleasure grounds WHILE THEY
ARE TO BE HAD, for the day is
coming when such sites as have been
offered will not be available for that
purpose.
Now the thing to do is for the
people of Eugene to unite in a move
ment to beautify the present park
site and help get It in shape for
recreation next summer"
II Is to be hoped that provisions
will be made In the budget OF the
city of Salem. that will be framed
for next year, for the acquisition of
city park.

near the city that would make a

THE JUTE MILL PROBLEM.

The Salem Statesman intlmates
that II It were a proposition to es-
tablish a fax mill. there would be
more argument In favor OF IL.
The argument that conyicts might
be employed to work up flax or some
local production, but not jute, does
not meet the issues involved,
The issue involved in the estab-
llshment of jute mill with convict
labor Is whether it will HELP THE
PRODUCERS MARKET THEIR
CROPS.
Jute sacks are used In marketing
grain, wool, hops. mohalr. potaties
an dother root crops. products in the
aggregate larger than almost all
other original products combined ex-
cepting lumber.
II will not be denied that any sub-
stantial addition TO the production
OF jute sacks, according TO the law
OF supply and demand WOULD
TEND To CHEAPEN THE PRICE
or JUTE RAGING.
The demand for iute hagging is
each year growing larger, and the
Increase OF crops In the west Is so
great that We need not look for
cheaper bagging from over-produc-
tion OF the jute mills.

good thing for the state and for the
