a STUDY OF CANNERY CONDI.
TONS

1t is now determined fact that a
group of forty or more of the most
enthusiastic and prominent of the
fruit growers in Yakima valley are
planning to go to Charleston the first
week in January to attend the State
horticultural Association with an idea
of campaigning for the 1918 meet
ing of the association and bringing
home the plum. 1t will be a great
boost for the fruit industry of the
valley and is eminently the thing to
do.
There is another thing these rep
resentatives of Yakima valley can do
while at Charleston and something
that in the estimation of the Herald
is of equal importance with bringing
home the 1918 meeting, and that is
10 bring back to the growers here
some good ideas Cleaned from a study
of the cannery industry as it has

Charleston country.

great importance to Yakima valley
growers at this time. II will be

THE BOOSTER

I'd rather be a booster than a knock
er any day,
I'd rather tinge with hope than doubt
the words l have to say.
I'd rather miss my guess
On another mans success
Than to view his bitter struggle and
prophesy his fall.
l would rather say, Hes coming"
Than Hes going" when I'm sum-
ming
Up the labors of my brothers, l would
rather boost them ALL
Iwould rather speak the kind things
than the mean things any day,
I'd rather swing a baton than a ham
mer, let me say
I would rather sing my rhyme
In a sort of two-step time
Than to let it drag in dirges in a
gloomy heavy style.
would rather say, God bless you!'
And with words of cheer impress
you,
Than to preach about your follies all
the while.
I would rather be booster than a
knocker any day,
I'd rather praise than criticise in
what l have to say,
I'd rather not be wise,
At the cost of others signs,
would rather see the good things
than the evil men do;
i would rather far be wrong
When l boost man along
Than be perfect in my judgment, but
make everybody blue.

Some DAY

Some day." he said, "I'll help the
poor and give away my pile: I'll quit
this putting on such lug and just live
plain. awhile. Some day I'll wipe the
orphans tears and take them to my
breast, and in the wretched ones
about I'll take some interest Some
day within my motor car I'll take
the sick to ride: and ask the beggar
at my door to stop and rest inside.
Some day I'll go down to the store
and buy lot OF toys and scatter them
with lavish hand to needy girls and
boys. Some day I'll quit this greed
for gold and rest me from the strife
and try and do the world some good
the balance of my life" That's what
he said long years ago, but still l dc
not see but that he's just as crazed
| for wealth as once he used to be.

been declared unconstitutional. 1t is
now legal for citizens to keep more
than quart of whiskey or other in
toxicating liquor in their places of
business if he choose, and they may
sequester more than a gallon of it in
their residences, according to an
opinion handed down by the court of

now celebrate the holiday festivities
with an additional zest and not be
limited by an obnoxious law.

THE MARKET PRICE OF ADVICE

advice is cheap" is the standard
market quotation for one of the
greatest staple products known, but
this is a commodity that is not gov
erned by the law of supply and de-
mand. When we consider the visible
!, supply and the accommodating surplus,
/ the standard quotation seems justi-
/ fed, but when we consider the supply
| in the face of the actual demand ad-
la vice always has to be paid for at an
y exorbitant price.
Advice that Is freely offered may be
y extra fancy" home grown, from Sc
Iected stock propagated and cultivated
! by workmen skilled in the school of
\ experience and 1t may go begging on
( the market with nothing offered. 1t
\ may not be accepted even as a gift.
Its intrinsic value has nothing to do
with its market price. In fact. advice
+ that seeks a market rarely ever finds
re.
On the other hand men are contin-
I nally seeking advice and they never
hesitate at the price. The dealer
! pays without bubble. Advice that
Is sought may be good, bad or indif-
( ferent, 1t may be "fancy," extra
fancy" CO.. grade or too poor to pass
!. inspection, but 1t is bought and paid
+ for at the dealers own figure, because
in each instance the man is seeking
advice and advice is not seeking the
man.
1t Is conditions such as these that
puzzles the philanthropists and those,
who for the individual and the gen.
: eral good. are seeking out of the
rich fullness of human experience to
supply the market with choice Of
fering. There is advice for the ind-
vidual advice for the community, ad
vice for the church, advice for the
state, freely offered for the social up
lift, but the demand is light and the
cold storage capacity is always taxed
to overlooking.
Advice is not cheap and it does not
deteriorate with age, the crop will al
ways be plentiful and the demand will
improve as the race progresses in civ
ilization, but like other quality" pro-
ducts more attention ought to be given
to the marketing. The demonstration
expert has here a wide field Of useful
ness. If honesty is the best policy"
! II character Is more than wealth."
| If optimism is the true human phi
| ,1osophy," If "the world is growing
/ brighter and better" If any one of
| many hundreds of the wise observ-
ences that are being offered for the
education Of the coming generations
are worth while. and they are, let the
tzarmy OF expert demonstrators get out
IN the field and exploit the product.
I The great commercial world has an
k+ermy Of men on the firing line exploit
| ing the field. In the moral and social
pplift of the race we need more ex-
/ pert demonstrators to help market the
best thought OF the world, born of
human aspiration, tested by human
experience, good because it is good,
helpful beyond comparison, and best
demonstrated when we can point with
pride TO the great and growing num-
Der of the sons of men who practice
what they preach. Then more and
more will the world take heed and
forget to observe that advice is cheap.
