POPCORN CONTEST.
Novel Corn-Raising Contest Inaugur
ated by Capital National Bank
Feature of Salem School Fair.

Marion county may yet become fam
Gus as a corn-producing county, if the
efforts of several hundred boys and
girls can accomplish this result, and
unless all signs fail there will be more
popcorn in this county next fall than
there ever was before.
One of the interesting features Of the
Salem school fair to be held in the Ar
mory in Salem next fall, will be the
popcorn contest.
The Capital National bank has Of
fered $50 in prizes for this contest,
which will be open to every pupil Of
the public schools in Marion county.
The seed will be furnished free by the
bank and the prizes will go to the boys
and girls who raise the most good pop
corn on a single plat Of ground not ex-
ceeding 1900 square feet in area. The
size of the planting has been limited,
being only about 1886 of an acre, SO
that the boys and girls living in the
cities will have chance at the prizes,
which will be thirteen in number. All
the work, except the first blowing or
spading of the ground, must be per-
formed by the contestants.
The result expected is that hundreds
of families in Marion county will be
popping corn next winter, and hundreds
of boys and girls will enjoy their win.
ter evenings at home eating the crisp
snowy flakes which they themselves
produced
Many, no doubt, will have some to
seIl on the market, where it commands
a good price.
The boys and girls who enter the con.
test will begin getting their ground in
order right away, as a full month can
well be spent getting the soil in per.
feet condition for planting Prof. Scud.
der, head Of the department of agricul
ture at the Oregon Agricultural College,
says the best time to plant the seed is
in May after the ground is warm and
danger from frost is past.
Entry blanks are now being prepared
and will be ready for distribution OH
and after April /. After that date
County Superintendent Smith will, upon
the application of any teacher, forward
to the teacher the number Of blanks re.
quired for the signatures Of the pupils
who desire to enter the race. If more
convenient the blanks and seed can be
procured by calling at the superintend.
ent s office in the court house, or at
the Capital National bank.
The Judging will be under the super
vision of the Oregon Agricultural col
lege, and prizes will be awarded as fol-

Salem, Oregon.
Ny Dear Mr.. Taber:
want to congratulate you on the
splendid showing made in The journal
of last Saturday s demonstration in con-
nection with the opening of the new
bridge. Being printer and newspaper
man myself, ! can well realize what
that involves in place like Salem,
where of course you do not have all the
advantages possessed by the metropoli'
tan newspapers, 1t was certainly a
good showing and will take pleasure
in spreading it broadcast to the extent
that Mr.. Woodruff is able to get copies
of the paper ! am only sorry that ar
rangements were not made for large
number of them in advance.
Thanking you very much for the
many thoughtful courtesies extended by
yourself and other good friends at Sa-
lem to Mrs. Strahorn and myself, and
again wishing to earnestly express the
sentiment that am thoroughly imbued
with the idea that the demonstration
was n great thing for Salem, as well as
for the interests I represent, ] remain,
Sincerely yours,
ROBT. 4. STRAHORN.

THE WORLD IS RUN
BY ELECTRICITY
Here is Little Story of Some of the
Electric Stunts Done for One
John Smith.

AT the shrill command of his electric
alarm clock, John Smith, commuter,
sprang out of bed in the grey dawn
and switched on the electric light. He
hastily washed with electrically manu-.
featured soap, A seasoned veteran Of
the 7.42 express, he wasted few min.
utes in dressing, but before he was half
clad the water was steaming hot in his
electric shaving mug. Dashing down
stairs he attacked a rapid-fire break.

electrically grilled, coffee, electrically
percolated, and cream, electrically sep.
arated from milk electrically MIXED
from electrically curried cows. He
dashed out Of his front door just in
time to catch an electrically heated and
propelled trolley to the railroad station
built of electrically manufactured ce.
ment. While waiting for the 742 ex.
Ilrss he lighted an electrically male
cigarette with au electrically manufac-
tured match. When the express came
up, Mr.. Smith settled down in the smok-
ing car to read his electrically printed
morning newspaper,
Arriving in town he descended into
an electrically lighted subway through
which he was whisked on electric cars
safeguardod by electric signals, He
assembled to his twenty story office in
an electric elevator and touching an
electric button summoned stenograph'

But it. not jnEel
One could take John Smith through
every minute and hour of his business
day, follow him back home again until
he turned in for the highland every
minute and hour of that day and night
would be made in some way mbre con
venient and comfortable by the marvels
of electricity There are hundreds of
thousands, millions of John Smiths, in
every great civilized country today.
The change has come so gradually
that we do not realize what revolu-
ton electricity has wrought in modern
life. There are few uses to which elec.
tricity is not put in modern industry
and up.to.date households. For an in
finite variety of work, ranging from
milking cows to making ice cream, from
running sewing machines to washing
dishes, from the manufacture of loco
motives to tie making of wall paper,
effective, and economical use is now
made of electrical apparatus. Recently
the Crocker. Wheeler company made a
tabulation of the purposes for which
one type of the motors was used, and
the following list includes only small
part of the products electrically manu-
factured; automobiles, barrels, baskets
boats, bolts and nuts, boots and shoes
bottles, boxes, bricks, brooms, candles,
cans, carriages, cartridges, cement
chains, chairs, cigarettes, cordage, corks
elevators, envelopes, gun powder, hooks
and eyes, hoops ice, jewclry, lOcomo'
tives, lead pipes, leather lumber
matches, nails, oat meal, paint paper
bags and boxes, pins, pottery, presses
rivets, rubber silk, soap, spools, tacks
textiles, typewriters, wagons, wall pa
per and wire.
