Fact

A news paper is in no sense
child of charity. It earns twice
over every dollar it receives and
is second to no enterprise in con-
tributing to the upbuilding Of the
community. Its patrons reap far
more benefits from its pages than
its publishers, and in calling for
the support of the community in
which 1t is published, it asks for
no more than in all fairness be-
longs to it, though it generally
receives less. Patronize and help
your paper as you would any other
enterprise because it helbs you
and not as an act Of charity. En-

ORIGIN OF MOVING PICTURES.

The beginning of moving pictures
was in this wise: Sir John Herschel,
after dinner in 1926 asked his friend,
Charles Babbage how he could show
both sides of a shilling at once. Bah
bage replied by taking a shilling from
his pocket and holding 1t to a mirror.
This did not satisfy Sir John, who
set the shilling spinning upon the
dining table, at the same time point
ing out that is the eye is placed up
on level with the rotating coin both
sides can be seen at once. Babbage
was so struck by the experiment that
the next day he described 1t to a
friend, DR.. Filton. who Immediately
sde a working model
On one side of a disc was drawn
bird on the other side an empty
cage when the card was revolved on
a silk thread the bird appeared to be
in the cage.
This model showed the persistence
of vision upon which all moving pic>
lures depend for their effect. The.
eye retains the make of the object
seen for a fraction of a second after
the object has been removed. This
model was called the thaumotrope.
Next came the oetrope, or wheel
of life. A cylinder was perforated
with series of slots and within the
cylinder was placed the apparatus be-
ing slowly rotated the figures seen
through the slots appeared to be in
motion. The first systematic photo

FOR A WESTERN WOOL CENTER.

The need OF a western wool mar
ket. a wool storage center indepen-,
dent Of the big manufacturers of
Boston and other New England cities
was never more forcibly presented to
western sheepmen than this spring.
In Utah scarcely any of the wool
clip is being sold, the buyers offer
ing but 1914 to Is cents per pound,
or 10 cents per pound less than last
year. .
The result is that all of the Utah
clip is being stored, but unfortunately
It is being stored with the very Boston
firms whose buyers have combined
tc hold prices down almost so per
cent lower than in 1907.
This condition should convince
western woolmen of the need of a
great central independent wool de-
pot at Omaha, Denver or st. Louis
where wool may re stored indepen-
dent Of the big commission firms and
manufacturers.
The wool now being stored with
Boston manufacturers will be bought
in by these manufacturers, sooner or
later, at their own prices. The
sheepman is helpless when once he
surrenders his holdings into the keep
ing of the manufacturers or commits
sion firms. He must take what he
is offered and be content.
If there was a cooperative, inde-
pendent wool storage warehouse az
Omaha, owned and controlled by
sheepmen, wool could be held indefi-
nitely at nominal storage charges,
buyers would come from all parts Of
the world to bid on it and there
would be a genuine competition.
This central storage plant must be
adopted If sheepmen hope to hold up
wool prices. Under the present sys-
TEN the grower is helpless.
If all the wool of the western states
were stored at central storage wool
depot, properly insured, millions Of
dollars would be loaned or advanced
by brokers upon the clips, to tide
over the sheepman until sales could
BIZ made and he would thus be inde-
pendent of the buyers combinations

THE SAGEBRUSH.

Winds of the Western Desert,
Freighted with hints Of spring
Stirring the blooms of the scented
sage,
Sweet is the breath you bring!
Homely flower of the desert,
Tell me the tales you know
OF your tragic battle with rainless
years,
AS the parched sands round you
blowl
Clinging to rock and chasm;
Loving the sterile plain;
Crushed and trampled and hated,
still do you bloom again!
Somber and vast, your stretches
Baffled the pioneers
Awed by your tragic menace,
They moistened your wild with tears!
Worlds of wilderness everywhere,
Level and dun and wide
Wide as the horizons verges,
Pathless on every side!
Still dc | love you. sagebrush!
You cling to the arid sod
With a lovers fond embraces
AS the faithful cling to Cod
Far from the desert gardens
Bring me your scented musk
Sweet with a million perfumes,
AS a meadow path at dusk!
Freighted with unborn harvests;
Rich with the scents of spring;
Laden with hints of newer life,
Is the message that you bring!
1 am a savage, sagebrush;
Here in your wild retreat
1 love the altar you raise to God
Better than crowded street!
Silent and cast and somber
May be your desert land,
Yet do your voices call me
Voices l understand.
And I pray that the sweetest incense
That soothes me at last In death.
May be but thy wildwinged per-
fumes,
The spices of thy breath!

oregon Pine"

time The same is true, in large
degree, OF the sale OF drugs and
"dopes" to fiends and fools who are
absolutely dangerous.
There should be some restrictions
on the sale Of these articles, The
states should provide for some dis
elimination in the sale OF guns, am
munition and dangerous explosives.
Il may seem like interfering with
the personal liberty Of the individual,
but judging from the horrible crimes
committed by love-crazed fools and
drug-crazed fiends, society is entitled
TO protection from certain classes Of
individuals who now have too much
personal liberty
The police force Of every big city
and every small city, too. for that
matter should know personally every
individual citizen, from well kept
records, who owns a gun or pistol.
Every dope" fiend should also be
registered and kept under police sur
veilance and on the first sign OF in
sanity should be confined in an asy-
lum with other insane patients.
The terrible crime Of the crazy
brakeman in Morrow county last
week. in which a beautiful young girl
was instantly killed and her compan-
ion shot, and the later crime in Port
land in which a dope" fiend brutally
murdered a jeweler in his shop, in
the heart of the busy district, bring
forcibly to mind the need of some
protection for society against fools
idiots, drugs and guns.

TEACH THE AMERICAN PEOPLE.

All citizens should lend their en-
thusiastlc support to the movement
backed by Secretary Root to instruct
the people on subjects pertaining to
International laws and diplomatic
customs, and the relations Of the
United States to foreign powers, says
the Spokane Chronicle.
The people OF republic, perhaps,
for the very reason that they have so
large a voice in the government Of
the nation. are apt to become some
what provincial and to be well in
formed on only those affairs which
concern their townships, counties or
states, while lamentably ignorant on
many affairs Of national Importance.
Secretary Root maintains that
many times governments which do
not desire war, and have no real rea-
sons for war, are forced into hostlll-
ties by the pressure of popular feel
ing, when, IL the people Of the coun-
tries concerned had but a sane un-
derstandlng Of the issues involved, no
hostilities would be necessary.
The educational campaign propos-
ed should receive the support Of all
people interested in the preservation
Of peace.

COINS Financial School" a book on
free silver that was famous IA years
ago, is In Kansas City from Monte
Ne, Ark, on a business trip.
Harvey takes little interest in poll

identified with a health resort at
Monte Ne as president and general
manager of the Club House Hotel and
Cottage company a cooperative con-
cern with 400 stockholders in the
southwest. There are springs at this
resort having health-givlng proper
ties. One group OF springs has a min
imum flow of 10000 gallons OF water
a minute. The fishing Is excellent in
the lake at the resort, Harvey says.
Trout and black bass are to be had
there and in the White river nearby.

THE ASSOCIATION AT WORK.

As announced by President Alex
ander OF Pendleton Commercial as
scciation when he took the position
d few months ago, this is to be an
active year for the association. 1t is
to do things which count and keep
UP the fight for a bigger and better
Pendleton.
Every week marks some new
achievement by the association and
every monthly meeting is better than
the preceding meeting. The most
representative bodies of citizens to
gather in Pendleton now attend the
monthly meetings and there is a bet
ter spirit than for many years.
This activity speaks volumes for
the association and the city. 1t proves
that organization pays. 1t proves
that men can work more advan-
tageously as a body than as individu-
ais and has done more to strengthen
the association with the people Of the
city and county than anything that
has been done for many years.
The activity and harmonious spirit
of The Copmercial association is one
of the best advertisements Of Pen
dleton ever sent out. 1t is known far
and wide that when Pendleton Com
mercial association gets behind
movement that it is sure to go. The
Pendleton spirit as exemplifled in the
Commercial association has become a
familiar power in eastern Oregon.
To keep this association harmonl-
Gus and continue its excellent work,
will require self-sacrifice, labor and
unselflsh efforts Of every member.
There is work for the association
II do-a greater work for the future
than has ever been accomplished in
the past. notwithstanding the excel
lent record of the past.
Umatilla county is just now begin
ming TO develop. New blood is COM
ing in and must be fused into the as
ISOLATION New energies are at work
and they must be harnessed for the
benefit Of Umatilla county. New
men are being enlisted in the devel-
opment propaganda and these men
must be taken into the good fellow
ship Of the association.
More farmers are needed in the as
ISOLATION. They are interested in good
roads, one Of the hobbies of the as
ISOLATION, and they can work to bet
ter advantage inside than outside the
association.
More young men are needed. They
are to be the future influential citi-
zens Of the county and city and they
should be taking more active part. In
fact. everybody is needed in the work
Of the association and nobody inter-
ested in Pendleton or Umtllla county
can offord not to be a member

An Electric Incubator.

Electricity has been applied to incu-
baton by Otto Schultz, an electrician
of Strassburg. and is the result of three
years Of experimentation. The appara-
tus is made for 80, 100 or 200 eggs, and
IS designed to obyiate the difficulties
connected with the ordinary form Of
incubator. The manipulation of the ap-
paratus is very simple, and its mainte-
nance depends only upon an uninter-
rupted supply of electricity.
An automatic attachment keeps the
temperature within one tenth of a de-
gree OF the normal temperature of in
cuhatiOn The degree of SaturatOn Of
the air Is kept in the same manner.
Under ordinary conditions, ninety
chickens can be counted on ont of 100
eggs incubated. The quantity of cleo
ticity required is very small for an in
cubator holding fifty eggs, ten to TWEEN
ty watts being sufficient, depending
upon the temperature of the outer air.
For raising the chickens after they

voted TO the freshly Matched chickens,
while the lower part Is arranged so
that the chicks can run around on the
ground and at the same time find heat

Wintering Cabbage.

One Of the simplest ways Of keeping
some sheltered place, often alongside
a fence which has been made tight by
a liberal use of straw. The cabbages
are stored with their stems on and are
as possible Two or three tiers are
often made. the heads of the second
tier being placed between stems of the
lower, and so on, the piles being made
whole is covered with leaves, salt grass
hay or straw and little soil, rails,
brush or litter Small unstable heads
when stored in this way in November
and frequently sell as well as any in
February Small quantities may be
stored by blowing out two or three fur
rows ten or twelve inches deep on a
well drained site and placing the heads
with their stems up as close together
as possible. Some prefer to lay them
but one or two thick, while Others Will
pile them up two to two and a half
feet high. bringing them to point.
The pile is then covered with straw.
salt grass hay or thin layer Of straw
and then several inches of soil. They
are stored before freezing, and when
the soil covering them is frozen 1t may
be covered with strawy manure or any
other litter to keep the soil frozen I'M

Ripeninx Green Tomstoes.

Often when frost comes there are
many tomatoes on the vines that are
nearly full grown, but that have not
yet rlpened enough to send to market.
| have picked such tomatoes and put
them In q cool. dark place to ripen
slowly and sent them to market when
the supply had run low and prices rum
high. says a writer in New England
Homestead. But for home use bet
ter way is to pick the smaller ones
from the vines and then hang up the
branch in the cellar, darkenins the
windows and keeping the place cool.
They will ripen slowly, ana one may
indulge in ripe tomatoes in January,
when those grown in dollhouse and
not as large or any better flavor are
selling at % cents a pound or more.

is claimed that by adding certain guam

tanks from which the boilers are fed all
impurities in the water and matter that
might adhere to the sides of the boiler
are at once precipitated, leaving the wa

life and efficiency of the boiler increased,
but a great enconomy in fuel is derived.

The Use of Salt.

Salt Is a very useful, though humble,
friend of the houSekeeper If she would
but realize the fact. Damp salt Will
rub off the discolorations left in cups
by the sediment OF tea and coffee. Salt
will set the dyes of black and colored
articles. If little be added TO the wa
ter In which they are washed. salt,
mixed with lemon juice removes the
stains Of ink. tar or paint from the
hands. Salt and water, applied to bas-
ket and straw work, and rubbed IN
with a soft nail brush, is a most eff
fective cleansing agent. Brass orna-
ments may be kept bright by rubbing
them occasionally with salt and vine
gar. Salt thrown upon the CRATE Will
soon put out fire in the chimney,
Salt, when added In proportion to
whitewash. induces the latter to adhere
firmly TO any surface to which ii may
be applied.
