won't be educated and keeps on de-
mandinY coarse. red salmon and ut
terly refusing to have anything to do
with the delicious. white kind. The
Gamers have given up the attempt
now.
The process of canning salmon is
practically all machine work. The
link" machine Is the big one that
does the, biggest part Of the work. A
whole salmon goes into one end of
IL and comes out the other packed In
cans. The machine cuts the fish open,
draws il. washes ii. trims 1T of head
and tail, and cuts 1t up into pieces
the right size Girls pack these pieces
into cans and that's all the hand work
there is about canning salmon.
The fish industry of the Pacific
Coast is by no means confined to SAL
mon. Immense quantities Of halibut
are shipped to eastern markets. as the
Pacific halibut is a much finer fish
than that of the Atlantic. just as the
Maine and New Brunswick salmon is
better than the Pacific Coast salmon.
Most Of the salmon fishing around
Puget Sound is done by Japanese.
They have little motor boats that they
use in placing their nets and these
boats have q sort of shield under the
propeller SO that they can scoot over
other nets without getting the screen
entangled.
Up the rivers the Indians catch a
great many nsh which they dry for
winter food. A great deal Of the
coarse salmon is also dried by the
companies and sent to China, much as
the abalone meat is dried along the
California coast and shipped for Gel
estial consumption.
That reminds me that when in San
Francisco l ate abalone. Yes ! have

Union League club and ushered to
the famous round table in the center
of which stands q goat. As it is Gus

don't see the object of having that
extra one on the table.
Now at this luncheon the club mem
bers were wildly enthusiastic over the
piece de resistance. which was fried
abalone. They all clamored for it and
I was told how delicious it was and
what a treat / had in store.
1t came. A portion of fried abalone
looks and feels very much like the
wet sole of an old leather shoe that
has become soft and tender through
use and decay. have never eaten the
sole of an old leather SHOE but I have
eaten abalone and 1 should imagine
they would taste very much alike. i
know abalone tastes the way the sole
of an old leather shoe ought to taste.
After taking two bites of that
abalone I realized that they had got
my goat" and got 1t good. Then no.
ticed that my hosts were all eating
their abalone down to the last tough
little scrap.
Then 1t came to me that I had got
their goats and they did not know it.
1t was the only thing they didn't
know in San Francisco.

Somebody fooled Vancouver.
They said it was going to be a
great, big city and Vancouver believed
them and spread herself accordingly.
She spread herself over most of the
adjacent territory and was already
and still is to be flled up to the ex-
tent of a million souls. Asphalt streets
and cement pavements were strung
out over all the surrounding hills and
street lamps stuck up. Looking at
Vancouver at night for the first time.

huge Vancouver Hotel, and seeing mile
after mile of street lights in every di-
rection, you are impressed with the be-
lief of being in the midst of a very
large city. In the cold gray dawn or
the morning after you are undeceived.
There is hardly anything above
ground between those rows Of street
lamps and the checkerboard of asphalt
ed streets but tree stumps.
The real estate boomers did II ana
they put a crimp into Vancouver de-
velopment that will take her years to
outgrow. They hate real estater"
in Vancouver now just about A.
vehemently as they hate a Jap in San
Francisco. Because Vancouver is beau
tifully situated, with a fine harbor ana
the terminus of a trans-continentai
railway. swith a steamship line to the
Orient. the real estate men induced
her to bite off more than she could
chew.
The result is that today Vancouver
is a dead town. Its boom burst anv
is as fiat as a pancake. Thousands of
people lost fortunes in real estate
specula ation there and others are load
ed down with lots that they can hard
ly give away. Large tracts of city
property are about to be sold for
taxes, and 1 have no doubt they will
be a good investment for any one
who is content to sit down and wait
ten years for his money to show signs

 EXHIBIT AT FAIR
In Meantime, Miss Former Busy Arranging for Dis
 play Here in October.

Miss Mary Fortner, canning club agent for Jefferson county, is pre- pairing circular letters to be forward- ed all the members of the canning club in this county, directing the at- tention of the girls to the forthcona- ing fair and exhibit of cannng club products, and announcing that the islr will be held early in October.
 Details of the affair have not yet been perfected. but already Miss Fortner is preparing for the receipt and announcement of the prizes, which will be offered by local busi- ness men and other interested parties as awards to the girls who show the hest results o the canning club work.
 Jefferson county canning club girls have been specifically invited to make an exhibit of the products at the annual tri-state fair, to be held at Memphis in Sept.-Oct., and Miss Fortner is of the belief the girls of this county can win prizes and hlgh honors at the big Memphis exhibition, if they will do their best.
 Miss Fortns,r announced yesterday that there will be a number of prizes awarded at the local fair Tn OctoDer' to women who have learned cannlns processes under her instruction. Qultg a number of women of Pine Bluff and of the rural sections of the county, have received such instruction from Hiss Fortner, but have not regularly TAlrolled as members of the home demonstration club. These Will nor be eligible for, the prizes unless they enroll, and as a result it is expected all who are not now members Of the club will have their names placed on the list within the next two or three weeks, So they may enter into tl'e ; competition. ss4e- , ,ss 1T, n

 If the patrons of the school will avail themselves of the opportunity offered, it is the plan to test for them free of charge soil fertility. to show the requirements of the land and which crops are best suited to that particular tract. In the use of the Babccck milk tester. the first to be installed in any school in the county, it is proposed to aid the dairymen to determine the percentage of butterfat in the milk, and through this to show the profitable and the unprofitable COW. All the owner of the cows will be asked to do is to supply a small quantity of milk to be used for test ing, and to keep a record of the quantity of milk produced and Of the cost of feeding each COW. The use of a rulsd blank makes this an easy and simple manner. It is well-known fact that many cows do not produce sufficiently to justly their keep. and in determining the profitable COW, the school will be rendering great ser vice to the people.
 In addition to this practical work,

A canning school and demonstra- tion will be held today at Wabbase eka by Miss Fortner; who expects also to conduct school and demonstration tomorrow at A).heimer, and Friday at New Gascony. The second crop of tomatoes are ripening in fine style now, and the indications are the yield will be very heavy in all sections of the country, meaning more work and greater returns for the canning club girls and their mothers.

NO OFFICIAL COMMENT
IS MADE ON SUBJECT
FINANCIERS IN SOME IN
STANCES POINT OUT IN
CREASED TRADE

Washington, d. c., Sept. 16.-Peo-
pie from the cotton producing states
predict great strides for the staple
since the market has advanced to 10c
pound. An authority said today that
the price would reach 12c within
short time, particularly if the Anglo
French loan is consummated. Reports
also came here of large number of
vessels along the Gulf coast loading
cotton for European destinations.
The European loan negotiations have
attracted widespread interest in fin
ancial circles, although in some quar-
ters the latest scheme to borrow with
out pedging securities has given the
general plan a setback. Bankers that
have heavy erman deposits are not
taking kindly to the proposition. Wash
ngton bankers were found generally
against making the loan on the no
security basis, believing that II would
mean more financing on the same
terms later, while both England and
France are known tc possess Ameri-
can securities in large amounts. Gov
ernment officials are not commenting
upon the transaction, since the govern
ment has given no voice to financing
the countries at war.
The chief benefit to accrue to the
United States, according to some fin
anclers, is the increased trade activi-
ties, and to this extent the position of
James ]. Hill is warmly indorsed A
who has had to do with
cotton for the last twenty-five years,
made the prediction that the market
would speedily rise with the loan
made. Similar optimism comes from
the wheat sections OF the country,
since the more credit the allies have
in the United States the more, 1t is
believed, they will purchase.
Wholesale activity of the cotton
market is also believed to be due to
purchases from German sources. Re
ports reaching Washington show that
while the cotton situation in the over
sea trade has not improved as far as
Germany is concerned, buyers OF that
have been active, and already
stored large amounts for future de-
iyeries.
Secretary of State Lansing again
denied today the report emanating
rom Berlin that arrangements had !
,een made whereby cotton consigned
o German factors would be unmolest-
ID. AS far as Washington knows, the
english embargo has not been shaken.
