The Women's advertising club of
Portland have inaugurated a move
ment to clean and beautify the state
highway, and are enlisting the CO.
peration of the commercial clubs and
chambers of commerce In the various
cities to unite in presenting this
movement to the members of the
senate and Legislature for the intro
duction OF bill for this purpose.
The local Commercial Club is in re-
cepit OF a letter from this Portland
club in which they state that the
condition Of many OF the highways
is deplorable. Inscriptions citizens
looking to the cleaning up of their
own yards or houses, have filled gun
nysacks and other receptacles with
old tin cans, bottles and other refuse,
doubtless with thet hought of the
paltry sum they might save and have
dumped them along the highways,
with no consideration, apparently, to
the expense and labor it might re-
quire for the property owners or the
county to get rid of this unsightly
| trash.
The Ashland Commercial club has
assured its cooperation with the
Women's Advertising club in the
cleanup" movement to the best
of its ability.

For the first time in. the history
OF wheat growing in America it will
soon be possible to map the distri-
button OF wheat varieties and to
learn the large number Of names
under which the same varieties are
known in different parts Of the coun-
try. This result has been made pos
sible by a comprehensive survey of
varieties made by the United States
Department OF Agriculture, through
the Bureau Of Plant Industry and
the Bureau of Crop Estimates w rk-
ing in cooperation. Schedules were
sent to about $4,000 crop reporters
to determine the distribution OF
wheat varieties, the source from
which came, the date Of their intro
duction into the community, the per-
centage which each represents of the
total wheat acreage in the commu-
nifty. The returned schedules have
been studied, and about thousand
letters of inquiry have been sent ask
ing for additional information and
samples.
