Bees have enemies of various kinds
like the rest of creation. Every one
knows that many birds are insectiv-
orous, but all insects do not form the
food Of any one species. The bird
which has formed a taste for bees is
the blue tit. and if a pair of these dis
cover a suitable nesting place in the
neighborhood of an apiary it is sur
prising how many bees will be carried

This paper is willing at all times to
boost for the home merchant and man
ufaeturer, but how about little recip-
rocity? This is a question having two
sides. While we boost tor the local
merchant we have a right TO expect that
he will help the paper along by giving
us his printing. While Shears & Saw
buck and other Chicago and st. Louis
houses are getting much money that the
local merchant should receive, the Port
land printing houses are also getting
from them much printing that should
be done at home. We believe in reci-
procity.

The people of this city should buy
"Made in Oregon" goods from the
local merchants whenever the price and
quality are equal to Eastern made goods
The "Made in Oregon" movement
inaugurated bv the Manufacturers As
sociation, Of Portland will do much to
stimulate the manufacture and sale of
goods made within the state.
All property values depend upon the
prosperity of the community. If our
manufacturers are prospering, and the
merchant likewise, the farmer will pros
per, too. The persistent demand for
goods "Made in Oregon" will help
bring greater prosperity to the people
of Oregon.
Support the manufacturers of your
home city first, last and all the time,
and you will help yourself to prosperity
But if your local factories cannot sup
ply your wants, insist that the merchant
carries "Made in Oregon" goods from
other Oregon sources to supply your
needs.
Home prosperity depends upon home
industry, and statewide prosperity will
be greater if factories selling "Made
in Oregon" goods are patronized by the
local merchants.
The mail order houses of the East
would not be so prosperous if the people
OF this community would insist on hav-
ing Made in Oregon" goods from the
local merchants. The business Of this
community would be better conserved if
the buying public and the merchants
would help along the "Made in Ore
gon" idea.
We notice that some merchants in
other cities are using considerab BILE space
advertising ''Made in Oregon" goods.
That is as it should be. The merchant
must know that his individual pros
perity is to a great extent dependent
upon the prosperity of the state at large,
and if Oregon manufacturers are pat
ronized, that it will mean greater pay
rolls, and greater pay-rolls mean
larger degree of prosperity for every
man. woman and child in Oregon

Live-At-Home Doctrine.
Carolina MON Farmer.

Carolina Mon Farmer.
Every man who tiIl5 the soil must
grow his food products at home, if
he intends to avoid a fatal economic
error, but no farmer is compelled to
grow cotton or tobacco. A scientific
and systematic system Of marketing
tobacco and cotton looks nice as
theory and it will be fine when put
into practice, but here's the quickest
way to get results. Plant food crops
in place of cotton and tobacco. 1t
would be better to 90 rabbit hunting
or fishing than to gamble on tobacco
and cotton at the expense of living
at home The cotton farmer has
been turning more attention to stock
raising and growing food products
and the price of his staple will CON
tinue to advance just in proportion
to its scarcity. The tobacco farmers
must also learn this important lesson
OF limited production, and the way
to do it is to quit gambling on big
tOhaccO crops and attempting to buy
living at the stores. You will in
this way get the double benefit of a
living at home and at the same
time make tobacco so scarce that the
markets will get hungry enough for
it to compel the buyer to take it at
the farmers prices. You can't preach
the Farmers Union "live-at-home"
doctrine too strongly and too often
in local Unions from now until plant
ing time.

Torrens-System Facts.


| Charlotte observer.
The TOrrcn5 system Of land titles
is one whereby the State has a par
ticular piece Of I;Inl surveyed, then
has the title examined by a States
attorney. and then ISSUES "a guaran
toed title in simple form (Which may
be Transferred practically without
cost like the stock certificates Of
corporation. This certificate, carry
ing the States guarantee, puts a
period to all examination of the titles
and therefore saves expenses and
simplifes all transactions in land.
Originating in New Zealand, the Tor
rens system has rapidly made head
way all over the world, especially in
new countries. Its simplicity and
utility are assurance that vein North
Carolina should adopt it now and
shall surely adopt it at a distant
date The question is simply how
long we shall pay the veXing costs OF
the old method and still suffer q de-
gree Of uncertainty; or how soon we
shall begin to save the cost OF having
titles examined over and over again,
every time there is a land transac-
tiOn OF any nature. Under the Tor
rens system the new deed or certifi-
cate is instantly transferable for sale
or for use as collateral. It's use tenn
porarily for collateral involves no
publicity, any more than the stock
certificate Of a cotton mill or any
other corporation does. Bankers
and building and loan people wanti it
because it saves costs and simpllties
loans on real estate. Farmers want
it for the same reason and also be-
cause of the no-publicity feature. The
TOrrens system insures the title be-
yond question, and yet there are no
mortgage records or
mortgage, costs. Being purely per
it is never compulsory; if
any one would rather keep in the old
rut, there is nothing to hinder him
from doing so. These, in brief, are
the principal outlines OF the Torrens
system.
