bility for even more money from farm

There surely is, and it is mainly a
question of keeping records find out
how many eggs are being produced
each year. Do not Judge this by the
sale of eggs but by the number ac-
tually gathered. The eggs used in the
household sometimes amount to a
great deal and the hens should have
the credit. The same is true of the
poultry raised.
Keep record of feed that is fed.
This may be rather vague but fairly
good idea can be obtained.
A lot of other items of expense are
hard to figure, but these two items
will furnish information on what the
hens are actually doing that will be
worth while. After this information
has been secured by properly kept rec
ords it is then time to consider the
changes that should be made to secure
greater profits.

LlINDERNEN STILL
SUFFER FROM CAR
SHORTAGE, REPORT

The ear shortage in Western Oregon
and Western Washington has not i'm
proved in the last week and lumber.
manufacturers are unable to handle all
their rail business. The situation is
severe with little substantial relief in
Immediate prospect.
Il. H. Ashton, regional director Of
the railroad administration has advised
the West Coast Immbermep Is Asso-
citation that the early part Of septem-
ber showed an actual loss IN the mum
her Of closed and open ears moving in
to the West Coast territory, but gave
assurances that efforts no ware be-
ing made to improve conditions.
AS a result of the ear shortage some
mills are not accepting new orders at
all but are continni e their operations
with the view of replenishing their
stocks which have become abnormally
short on account of the continuous
heavy demand for lumber.
Despite the unfayorable car situa-
tic the total new business accepted by
the mills during the week ended Sep
ten,ber 20 was 55,S0l,466 feet, Of
which 42,000,000 feet was for rail de-
livery.
The volume Of new business offered
is increasing every week. Demand is
coming FROM domestic markets in the
East and Middle West as well as from
the export trade.
As a result Of the constantly increas.
ing demand the volume Of orders, cut
and shipments at west coast mills ap-
proximates that at the southern pine
mills which always have been the
heaviest producers. For the first 81
weeks Of the year the west coast mills
cut 1896 l51 ,Sl4 feet compared to g.
6lS,4l0,317 feet for southern pine; the
shipments in the same period were g.

Since the end Of the war the Douglas
fir mills have been getting a lot of
new business from the Atlantic sea
board and other eastern territory. As
ships and ears become available this
business is sure TO increase.

COURT ORDERS 100000
POUNDS OF HOPS SOLD.

The sale of 10000 pounds of hops,
grown ON the old Van Dandaigue yard,
at figure not less than 35 cents a
pound, was authorized Tuesday by an
order from the circuit bench. The or
der was made necessary for the fact
that legal litigation over the yard is
pending, and, under the law, the receiv-
er of property in such a case, can take
no action without consent of the court.
The authorization was given to May
belle Jette, named receiver in the case.
The suit, made by the firm Of S. & f.
Uhlmann, is to recover funds said to
have been loaned to Kin Daw, China
man. and C. w. A. Jette, operators of
the yard.
The order of the court, stipulating a
minimum sales figure of 35 cents a
pound is interesting when the fact is
considered that the average sales price
of hops at the present time is 70 cents:

The police watched for you. Even in
Salem you kept from sight of public

en- days; you were here then, but not
this time!
On the fair grounds agents of the de-
partmcnt of justice and our friends from
the United States marshals office in
Portland were there to greet you. But
no. Only your weaker brother-Augus-
tus Moonshine-was there. And, it
might be added, John, that he seemed
weaker then in the days of highbinder
betting and non,selcet nickering ponies.
Betting went on just the same, John.
Probably it would have been better
more frantic, as newspapers speak of
mobs-had you been there to inspire it.
Gains were calculated through sober
eyes of delight this time; and not
through your FURNISHED periseope Of

The fair was a success without you,

than when YOU were with us. So, you
see, our visitors couldn t have missed

ing wonderful amount Of civic pride,
will meet Friday evening of this week
to talk matters over and to adopt some
kind of by ylaws and constitution for

However, it has been pointed out
by citizen who has just recently did
considerable walking on North Fourth
that before the people ask much of the
city council, it might be good idea for
all to show their pride in Improvement
by doing little work individually on
the sidewalks. The citizen pointed out
that sidewalks are pretty dilapidated
on North Fourth street and that pro-
perty owaers have taken but little in
terest in walking conditions.

doing some work on sidewalks fci the
winter will come up at the meeting to

 Senator Pittman of Nevada, in charge of the bill, said he planned to present the report as soon as an opportunity permitted but most supporters expressed doubt as to whether the measure would be finally enacted at this session Be- cause of the short time between now and the adjournment of Congress Tues day advocates said it would not be difficult for opponents to block final action.
 Secretary Daniels letter was read to the Senate by Senator Swanson. chair man of the naval committee. Immedi- : ately Senator Pittman and Senator Shafroth of Colorado, member of the Senate conference committee, called on President Wilson, wno was then at the capitol, and asked that he use his influence with Secretary Daniels not to oppose the measure It was under stood that the President declined, ad- vising them to discuss une matter with Mir.
