An Attractive Calendar

BY far the most attractive call

this charming calendar ex-
quisite and appealing beauty
stands out in contrast and is ex-
ceptionally UNIQUE among art

The Pabst Extract Jewel Calen-
dar as it is called, rich in color,
exclusive in design and strong in
sentiment, appeals to both men
ana women and is beautiful as well
as educational. 1t portrays a very
handsome woman standing between
two rich red portiers in such a pos
ition that the sun from the back
throws rays of light across her
shoulders and face, while the ar
tistic arrangement and rich color

is partly enshrouded produces an
effect that is hard to imagine with

This beautiful work Of art de-
rives its name, the Pabst Extract

arrangements of the calendar pads,
which partray the birth stones and
their Significance for each month of

giving it originality and senti-

Alfalfa is an ambitious plant and

MONEY FLOWING WEST

One of the certain results oil me
present financial strirgency VIII
be a superabundance OF money on
the Pacific coast 1t was, in
fact. surplus of money that brought
the western banks into condi-
ton which made them victims
of the Wall street panic. Every
BODY on the coast had >money and
there were too few borrowers In
this part of the country. The
banks loaned their mouey and de-
positors' money in the east, and
when the dcpositors took a notion
that they wanted it, not all of 1t
could be had on short notice. But
the banks are gradually getting it
back again and eventually it will
be on the coast again, incre ased by
the returns from this years. crops.
Then confidence will be completely
restored and there will be more
money than the people will know
what 10 do with. More than this,
most of what the coast has to sell
is in the form OF necessaries,
while much of what it buys in the
east is in the form of luxur les.
This financial stingency has made
the people more cautious, and
they will be careful about spend
ing money. The purchase of nee
essaries will go on just the same as
usual, but there will be a decrease
in the purchase of luxuries. This
will be to the advantage of the
coast and keep more money at
home. There are a great many
people in Oregon who have predicted
y
realestate values, as a result of the
money stringency, but they are
doomed 10 disappointment. We
shall see a repetition Of the expert
ence of 1905. 1t was said wait until
after the Lewis and Clark Fair
and there will be slump in
values and you can pick up prop
erty for song. - But the slump
did not come, for the reason that
everybody wanted to buy real estate.
People who have been gradually
drawing their money out of the
banks or who wish to do so will
be hunting for an investment in
the next few months. The banks
will have more money than they
can loan and they will hesitate
about sending it east again. In
the absence Of better subject
of investment there will be a
strong demand for real estate. If
the coast were a debtor part of the
country and labores under the nee
essity of sending money east, the
situation would be much different,
but il is clear to every one that
we shall lave more money three
months from now, and six months
from now, than ever before.
Wall street panics may come and
60 and in the passing may cause
some temporary inconvenience in
the productive and developing west,
but they will not materially affeci
lie ,itimate real estate investment
on the Pacific coast. Portland

The way now seems TO be plain for
the farmers and housewives OF this
county to obtain all the help they
need. Governor Warfeld has re-
quested the State Bureau of Immig-
ration tC promptly take advantage of
the decision of Secretary Straus of
the Department of Commerce and
Labor in the South Caroline case.
and the officials of the Bureau have
right willingly complied. Under
this decision the State can import al
borers, which an individual cannot
do.
Secretary August F. Trappe of
the Bureau of Immigration says:
I'VE have already begun work and
will shortly send an agent abroad to
secure the first party OF immigrants.
What is important for US to know
now is just how many persons are
wanted, what they are expected to
do and what they will be paid. For
instance, John Jones writes US that
he wants a man for general farm work
and will give him SIS a month and
board, and Samuel Smith sends US
word that he will take a man and
wife with their family, giving the
man $25 a month, house rent, fire.
wood, garden and cow pasture. Now
If several hundred farmers will
promptly send US similar letters we
will know just what to do, how many
people to bring over and what kind.
We cannot bring more than there
are places for, because the State must
guarantee to take care of them un-
less they get employment.
Mr.. Louis 7. Weis. United States
Commissioners of Immigration at
Baltimore, informs us that the con.
tract labor law does not apply to
women who come as domestics,
therefore applications can be made
direct for a woman to do general
housework for Mrs. Brown, Smith
or Jones at specified wages. We
will arrange to supply such help as
far as possible.
