ONE OREGON FARM
At ATP.P.L.EXPOS|T|ON

An exhibit in the Oregon pavilion,
Palace of Agriculture at the Panama
Pacific Exposition, that attracts a
great deal of attention is that one
showing $40 varieties of products
from a single farm. This showing is
made by D. NJ. Lowe. of Jackson
county, who is particularly we'll
known to Oregon State Fair attend
ants. This exhibit is made up of
grains, grasses, fruits, vegetables, the
legumes, several varieties of corn,
flax, and about everything else NAM
able. The average visitor is thor
oughly amazed that such tremdous
variety of products can be produced,
on single farm and many stay to
discuss the situation thoroughly.
That this production is obtained
without the aid of irrigation, that the
products grow to splendid maturity
without interruption, and that so
much of the exhibit is of top-notch
stuff but increases the wonder. A
feature of the exhibit is large case
of silver cups, medals and blue rib
bons that Mr.. Lowe has won by sim
liar exhibits at other expositions and
state fairs. This is a magnificent ad-
vertisement for southern Oregon and
the state at large and furnishes great
opportunity for attendants to dwell up
on Oregon opportunity and possibil-
ity A companion exhibit also as
sists very materially in this effort at
exploitation. This is the splendid
showing made by F. M. Sherman, of
Linn county. He shows what can be
grown on an unirrigated ten-acre
farm and there is an unusual variety
of fine products. However, Mr. Sher-
man has discovered that it pays to
grow first-class seed of all kinds and
this is his special effort. There is al
ways a strong demand for good seed
at good price and he recommends
this industry to those on the small
tract. The public finds his exhibit of
great interest.

From Cove, Union county, there
came the first of the week two i'm
mense designs made of cherries-an
American eagle with wings outspread
upon a shild and an American flag.
Each of them about four by six feet,
and done in the light-colored Royal
Ann and the dark Bings, presents a
decidedly attractive appearance and
the display now makes the Eastern
Oregon booth the real center of at
traction. Shipped 1850 miles, the
Eastern Oregon fruit arrived in per-
feet condition and with the replace
ment of a cherry here and there as
the days go by the display will proba
bly, appear to advantage for three
weeks or more. Coming after the
southern Oregon and Willamette Val
ley cherry has had its day, this show
ing makes decided hit. While the
cherries are by no means the finest
that have been on display in the Ore
gon building, they are fine looking
and of a size that is amazing to many
of the Fasteners unfamiliar with the
beauty of this Oregon fruit.

klamath county has started out to
prove that, while tremendous tim
ber, cattle and wild game country, it
can produce as fine farm and garden
truck as any of em. Representative
Phil Sinnott now gloats over show
ing of fine lettuce, turnips, rhubarb
and kindred garden stuff as there is
on the grounds. The inquiry about
the klamath country is very great,
but the average person thinks Of that
section as being too cold for produc-
tion of any sort. They are now lear
ing better. If the rest of the state
understood just how many are the ih-
quiries about the possibilities for
hunting game OF any sort they would
emphasize the opportunities in their
particular sections. Many people
about to change their location seem
to be as much interested in hunting
as they are in making living, and
the matter of bagging a deer or land
ing a trout once in while seems to
be more important than any climatic
condition.

ne faithful skipper of the famous ark.

throughout these numerous aeons, at

At least that's what DR.. Steven
Langdon, professor of Assyriology il
Oxford University, will have us believe
0&or does he make this revolutionary
assertion idly; 1t is to an ancient
Samaritan tablet now reposing in the
Mseum of the University of Pennsyl-

translated the mystic hieroglyphics
thereon and written book about them
which was issued today by the mus
Gums people.
According to the Sumerian theology
found on the tablet, which is said to
have been written before the days of
Abraham, and translated by DR.. Lang
don, Noah was ordered not to eat of
the cassia tree in the Garden of Para
disc, and when he disobeyed the curse
fell upon him.
The curse was that he should have
i'll health and an early death instead
of living to be $4,000 years old, like
his ancestors.

PUBLIC UTILITIES
MUST PAY TAXES
(By Associated Press.)

SAN FRANCISCO, August 13.-The
question whether public utilities
should be assessed for taxation by
public service commissions occupied
some of the attention of the National
Conference on Taxation here today. +.
N. Fletcher, of Reno, Nevada, a former
member of the Nevada State Tax Com
mission, sketched the development OF
/ the public utilities, alluding to "the
startling efficiency now shown as
compared with the previous wasteful
, individual effort and said that this
efficiency was carrying with it enorm-
Gus profits to which the public, had
paid little attention.
He dismissed the suggestion that
public utilities under strict regulation
should not be taxed at all by noting
/ that in such case part of the public
would be benefited at the expense Of
larger part not served by the utility
and the loss in taxes would have to
be made up by other property on a
wholly unfair proportion. The same
reasoning he contended would apply to
municipal ownership under which a
cheapening of rates to a small portion
of the community would give them an
generally. mo one is injured by keep
ing the tax on he said, but always
the many are injured for the benefit of
the few by taking it off.
Assuming then that the public uti!-
titles should be taxed, the question a.
ises as to the amount of the tax and
whether the valuation should be the
same for tax as for rate purposes. No
difficulty arises in the trained mind in
ascribing a different value for each
purpose, as rates are largely based on
what is put into the property as in
vestment while taxes are assessed on
what is taken out as income One is
an investment value, the other an in
come or market value Under constant
and proper regulation the two would
tend to come together as the fixing of
rates is the chief factor in the mar
ket value of a utility"
He held that as the questions require
expert analysis of facts and as the
same set of facts must be used for
both rate and tax purposes, the same
expert body of public service commits
sioners could well determine both
issues.

To ESTABLISH
SUMMER PLACE
NEAR AMER|CUs
TO IMPROVE MAG.
NOLIA SPRINGS.

That Americas needs and would lib.
orally aid in the support of a we'll
kept suburban resort is quite manifest.
and any such place properly kept and
affording the attractions and conven-
iencies requisite will receive very
substantial patronage from residents
of this city and nearby towns, who
would seek a weeks or months rec
reation in cottage or tent out there.
Such outdoor life during the hot
summer appeals very strongly to the
people of this city and entire section,
and if such resort is established here
it should, and will, prove very good
financial enterprise
There are several fine properties
that might thus be developed, among
others Prospect Park, right here at
home, and also Magnolia Springs, ten
miles west of the city and reached in
twenty minutes over one of the finest
graded roads in the entire state.
Prospect Park has romantic beauty
and very fine natatorium, fed by pura
springs only a few yards away. The
natatorium is concerted and, best Of
all, is washed out at frequent inter-
walls, and the water kept clean and
fresh. This park contains twelve or
fourteen acres, and has ample space
for tenting parties, fine pavilion and
all accessories ia park.
In addition, it has sanitary con-
veniencies and is electrically lighted
at all times.
Another favored spot is Magnolia
Springs, once famed all over southern
Georgia as health resort and patron
ICED by wealthy planters from souta
Georgia and Florida. These made an
nual pilgrimages to Magnolia Springs
with their families, and in tents or
cottages would spend the summer
there.
The fine sulphur water had wide
reputation for it's medicinal properties
excellent lighthouses were maintained,
and the resort was widely popular
1t is understood that proposition
is on foot to restore Magnolia Springs
to its quondam state, build cottages
and arrange grounds for tenting par
ties; provide first class, clean con-
crete swimming pool; provide for
lighting the grounds at night; building
pavilions for dancing and picnic par
ties, and otherwise building up first

class resort.
Under such conditions Magnolia
Springs would quickly become i'm
mensely popular. 1t is only two miles
from Plains and accessible alike By
rail and county highways. Fine roads
lead to it from Americas ana all other
towns In this section of the state.
The public will demand resort kept
clean and made sanitary in every way;
with perfectly clean swimming pool,
washed out at frequent intervals; we'll
lighted grounds where patrons will
not be compelled to grope in darkness !;
tenting grounds; a well kept and well
lighted pavilion; swings for the chill

A small, well kept hotel, in addition
to the cottages, would prove advant-
ageous. If these improvements ace
made Magnolia Springs will quickly
become the most popular resore in

known tablet or historical account of
any kind as well as with the account
given in the Book of Genesis.
DR.. Langdon, according to the an
nouncement says that thi stablet is at
least 1000 years older than the Gen.
esis account, and, so far as is known,
is the Oldest record of the sort in ex-
istence.
The tablet was written more THAI
1000 years ago, possibly 5000 years,
and evidently records a tradition
which goes back to the early history
of man.
The Babylonian and Sumerian &C.
counts place the flood at something
like $4,000 B. c., and the lapse Of time
between the creation and the flood,
filled by ten kings, who reigned al
together $4,000 vars, an average of
$4,000 years each The reason given
that later kings reigned comparatively
short periods is that Noah sinned in
eating of the cassia tree. -.

thought it would be best to allow the H. R. Walker company to sprinkle the trolley area.
 City Engineer Hall figured a sav- ing of $1,000 by the latter course. Permanent pavement which is proper ly cleaned needs sprinllling only once every two days, he said. He was in favor of the car sprinkler if the price could be regulated. MT Hall had another proposition to do away with the squeegee machines and allow tn e car sprinklers to flush the streets off for an hour in the morning.
 President Humphrey did not agree with him and stood up strongly as a champion of the squeegee.
 The Walker company offered to sprinkle in the trolley area at thir- teen mills per lineal foot per month in proportion to Ithe number of times a street requires sprinklng. This bid is contingent on the final acceptance of the Walker company's bid for other street sprinkling which has been ac- cepted by the board, ratified by the council and held up by Mayor Quis- ley. Commissioner Moore moved that the Walker company's bid on the l trolley area be accepted. This was

WHAT CAUSES COLDS ]?

This question and "How to Prevent Colds" is asked a thousand times every day. A cold is really fever, not always caused by the weather but due to a disordered condition of the blood or lack of important food elements. In changing seasons fat foods are essential because they dis tribute heat by enriching the blood and so render the body better able to withstand the varying elements.
 This is the underlying reason why the medicinal fats in Scott's Emulsion quickly overcome colds and build strength to prevent more serious sick ness. It contains natures medicinal fats. so skillfully prepared that the blood profits from every drop, and it il free from harmful drugs or alcohol.
