PRONE PROGRESS MAR
VELOUS, SAYS WINTER

The development Of the telephone Il
marvellous and has caused the wonder
of everyone. No local man has been d
more interested observer of recent pro.
gress than w. n. Winter, president Of
the 0.-W. Telephone Co. Speaking of
the recent conversation across the con-
tinent, Mr.. Winter says:
Forty years ago Alexander Graham
Bell, inventor os the telephone, spoke
to DR.. Thomas A. Watson the first
words ever carried over a telephone
wire.
ION Monday of last week these same
two men formally opened the transcOn-
tinentsl long distance telephone line Of
the Bell system from New York to
San Francisco, a distance Of 3iO0 miles.
Mr.. Bell was in New York and DR..
Watson in Frisco.
"This step toward the realization of
the dream of Theo. N. Vail, president
of the American Telephone & Telegraph
Co. that anyone anywhere in the
United States shall be able TO talk tu
anyone else anywhere in the United
States, is at once dramatic. romantic
and intensely human. But It could not
have meant so much TO these two fine
old men as their first telephone conver-
sation over a distance of 100 feet or
their subsequent talk, two years later,
from Boston to Cambridge, distance
of two miles.
Truly, the accomplishments we, in
this age and generation, are seeing real
lied are marvellous. And not the least
among them is the wonderful efficiency
of American telephone service. Just
think what the telephone means to US
Certainly none of our moderu conven-
fences are so intimately woven into the
fabric of our social and business life. +"

SWINE INDUSTRY SAID
TO BE in PERIL

From figures recently compiled at
the Portland Union Stockyards, it
would appear that unless there is a
radical change on the part of the farm.
ers in the handling of the hog bust
ness, in short time Oregon will be
right back in the position occupied a
few years ago-almost no breeding
stock on hand, record breaking prices
in the local market on account of the
inevitable shortage of supply and an-
other hurry call on the middle west for
brood sOws to restock the empty pens.
And this deplorable condition is being
brought about by the present abnor-
mally high price of wheat, and also to
the fact that a large number of hog
raisers throughout the state neglect to
growi the necessary feed 'on which to
finish their crop of pork and on which
the surplus stock can be economically
carried through the winter.
During period of seven consecutive
days, ending the past week, $4,000
hogs we're received at the Portland
yards, only a small percentage of
which we're really fit for killing, the
balance apparently having been shipped
to avoid the expense of carrying them
until spring. The certain result of
these excessive shipments will be a ru-
inous falling off in values, wiping
out of the hog surplus ofslast fall Or
egon soil and climate is suited to the
production of corn, field peas and al
falfa, all of which are splendid hog
feed, and until the farmer plants more
extensively of these crops and thus
makes himself independent of outside
assistance, the hog industry will be at
the mercy of any influence which may
affect the prices of wheat and other
grains in the northwest
