We at home do not fully realize the
effectiveness of the work of the Pacific
Northwest Tourist Association. To be
sure, all have noted the great num-
Der of summer tourists. Thus we have
observed the results but not the work
that produced them. That has been
done elsewhere. Moreover, the attrae-
tions of the Northwest as a summer
recreation ground have been so long
realized by the folk of the northwest
that it seems but natural that others
should come to partake of the Joys of
our scenery and climate. Little
thought is given to the means by
which these attractions have been
made known elsewhere.
But in the localities where the work
of selling the Pacific northwest as a
summer resort has been performed the

genius of the selling campaign is at
tracing attention and genuine interest.
Illustrative of this are two editorials

published in the Oregonan The plan

Clipped Here and There

Farmers who are now trying to har-
vest their apple crop with labor that is
both inadequate in quantity and often
incompetent will envy their brother
cocoanut farmers of Borneo, who gath
er most OF their crop with the aid Of
trained monkeys. The monkeys. which
are of the large and usually savage
species Macacus nemestrinus, are sent
up the trees with long cords attached
to them. On command they twist off
the clusters of nuts and throw them
down. Well trained animals are worth
from eight to 20 dollars. Thus. the
Borneo fruit grower has little reason
