ON CONVERSATION AT A

James Montgomery Flagg, the ia

December Ame'ica Magazine. An
extract follows:

necessarily an awful thing, the rule
being that a pause on the part Of
any one of the contestants Is so.

IF everybody by the laws of
chance happens to be silent simultan-

tailed and subsequently alcoholized
dinners), then your party loses and
the dinner party next door wins.
Here are few remarks that are
being used this century:

farmers enjoyed very prosperous
year in Mendin, both in grain and

to have electric lights. We have had
four modern bungalow homes built
which would be credit to much

other improvements. We have three

HELEN kELLER's DISCOVERY

In the December American Maya
zine Helen Keller writes an article
entitled The Hand of the World"
Miss Keller is now thirty-two years
old and has been deaf, dumb, and
blind since babynood. She is at the
same time one of the most intelligent
people in the world. An extract from
the article follows:
"As the years went by, and | read
more widely, l learned that the mis-
cries and failures Of the poor are
not always due to their own faults,
that multitudes of men, for some
strange reason, fail to share in the
much talked Of progress Of the world
| shall never forget the pain and
amazement which | felt when | came
to examine the statistics of blindness
its causes and its connection with
other calamities that befall thousands
of my fellow men. | learned how
workmen are stricken by the machine
hands that they are operating. II be-
came clear to me that the labor saw
ing machine does not save the labor
err. 1t saves expense and makes pro-
fits for the owner Of the machine.
The worker has no share in the in
creased production due to improved
methods; and what is worse, as the
eagle was killed by the arrow winged
with his own feather, so the hand
OF the world is wounded by its own
skill The multipotent machine dis
places the very hand that created It,
The productivity Of the machine
seems to be valued above the human
hand; for the machine Is often left
without proper safeguards, and so
hurts the very life It was intended to
serve.
Step by step my investigation OF
blindness led me into the industrial
world. And what world It Is! How
different from the world of my be-
liefs' | must face unflinchingly a
world of facts-a world OF misery
and degradation, of blindness, crook
edness, and sin, world struggling
against the unknown, against itself
How reconcile this world Of fact with
the bright world of my imagining? Ny
darkness had been filled with the
light OF intelligence, and, behold the
dou M,
and cropping In social blindness. Az
first I was most unhappy; but deeper
study restored my confder"o
learning he suffering end burdens Of
men, be anne aware as never before
OF the life power that has survived
the forces OF darkness, the power
which, though never completely vic
torious, Is continuously conquering.
The very fact that We are still here
carrying on the contest against the
hosts Of humiliation proves that on
the whole the battle has gone for
humanity. The worlds great heart
has proved equal to the prodigious

"Come to Ashland and Live to BE
One Hundred" is Good
Motto.

There is talk of new slogan for
the Ashland Commercial Club adver-
tising. Come to Ashland and live to
be one hundred. 1t is good motto
and one which every resident of Ash
land can concientiously use and
push. But living TO be one hundred
includes other things besides good
air. good water and good climate. 1t
includes the wherewithal to get shell
ter and food. 1t is therefore neces-
sary, in addition 20 urging the ad-
yantages of the city along those
lines, to develop the city and coun-
try along lines which will give the
man or woman who is drawn here
hv the climate some means of liveli-
hood. There are bound to be many
drawn here by our climate and we
should have something in the way OF
a profitable vocation to offer them.
If having some means to invest
they wish to invest it in Ashland and
vicinity, they mus! have an oppor-
tunity to get it at price which will
return an income from it. II they
cannot get it they will be compelled
to go elsewhere.

George Mold has sold the Royal

who took possession on Tuesday
Mr.. Cummings will continue the
short order business along the lines
on which Mr.. Mold so successfully
maintained it, and will also reopen
the bakery. George Fisher, the
well-known baker, will take charge
of that department of the business,
which will insure it's popularity.
Mr.. Cummings has been engaged
in developing a piece of fruit land
at Merlin, and formerly came from
North Yakima, Wash.
Mr.. and Mrs. Mold have not yet
decided what they will do, but will
probably go to California in the near
future.

but carefully foster home production
in every line.
Cooperative effort, proper appli-
cation of right methods based on
correct business priniples. will re-
suit in the much-desired prosperity.
The merchants are the most bid
able and affiliating class to be
found. They will carry in stock lust
what the trade requires if it can be
mad. Especially IS this true if the
article is home product.
It is up to every grower to pr,-
duce enormously. Plant enough for
regiment or two, give it the need
ed care, and market will follow.
One of our thrifty grocerymen dis
plays on his door this placard:
Country produce wanted" How
many growers are ready to respond
copiously to the demand?
1t is up to every producer to call
for the home product. With empha-
sis this article appeals to the con-
sumer to ask of the dealer the home
product. Home-cured meats, home
dried fruits, home-manuractured
brooms, home-canned goods, home
grown beans, celery, cabbage, pota-
toes, onions, etc.
The merchant will carry in stock
anything that there is strong de-
mand for. No community can pros
per where shipped-in products are
bought in preference to the home
grown.
a reform in methods and applica-
tion of principles is essentially i'm
portant. Facts and figures count.
1t is true that beans can be bought
cheaper in Japan than from the local
grower because they can be pro-
duced more cheaply there. But add
to the Japan price the transporta-
tion charges and the wholesale prof
its and we consumers eat Japan
beans not one cent cheaper than the
homegrown, and in the event we
support the Japanese government at
the jeopardy of our own best inter
ests, local and national.
Rogue river beans and other prod
ucts are good enough. Seldom ex-
celled. Grower, merchant, consum-
er, stay with the home product.
Affable cooperation in the devel-
opment OF our own resources on
scientific basis will pay the mort
gage and give us bank account re-
plete to satisfaction.

people who would not think of dis
obeying a quarantine order in case
of smallpox or scarlet fever pay no
attention to orders of the ve?y same
nature given by the horticultural in
spector.
The county inspector has already
given out legal notice through the
press for everyone to clean up. His
order MUST be obeyed, or unpleas-
ant consequences will follow. Time
was when the law was not enforced,
but that time has passed. The COM
mercial orchardists MUST be and
iF. -. be protected. The county is
paying for this protection, and the
inspectors will enforce the law.
Everyone who owns trees, whether
| after them. 1t will We very much
cheaper to look after your own trees
than to have the inspector clean up
! for you. At this time, look every
pome tree over very carefully and
eradicate pear blight If you find it.
If you do not know what blight is,
please call at the rathologist's office
and find out, or ask any inspector.
Whether your trees have scale or not
does not matter; they should be
! sprayed just the same. The ma
terial to be used is lime-sulphur So
luton diluted in accordance with in
structions already given.
If you have no spray pump. do not
try to put the mixture on the trees
with whisk broom or garden
sprinkler. Better hire someone who
| has good pump and can do a good
| job or cut your trees down and burn
them up. By doing either one or
the other you will save money.
TO those owning trees within the
city limits, let it be said that you
should take pride enough in your
city to have clean trees in your back
yards and not have them overgrown
with pests. Let each one consider
himself an inspector working for the
good of the whole community, and
when disease is found either report
the matter to the proper authorities
or eradicate it. Remember you are
| your brothers. keeDer.
