LEGION DECIDES NOT
TO BUY PROPERTY

The Amerian Legion Post has de-
clded to postpone the purchase of a
permanent home. Plans, contemplat
ing the purchase of a large residence,
had been under consideration. The
Legion had received the offer of the
large home of p. S. Davidson and the
residence Of the late E. l.. Smith.
Some of the members favored the pur-
chase OF one or the other of the places,
but Monday night the executive com
mittee recommended that the Legion
accept an offer recently made by the
Commercial Club to furnish it's quar-
ters one night week for the exclusive
use of the Legion men. The opinion
was expressed that the Legion and the
community was not in position at the
present time to bear the expense of
purchasing expensive quarters.
With DR.. V. r. Abraham in charge,
a committee provided refreshments,
and songs were rendered by James
Fenemore.

the greatest number of paidup sub

see why reputable newspapers will en-
ter into such a contest as this. 1t is
all right to make an honest -to-goodness
campaign for subscribers, but when it
comes to making a man take a paper
for number of years in order that
some sweet girl, beautiful woman or
some charitable organization get
prize, the Banner draws the line. No
paper should force its subscription up-
on anyone. A newspapers subscrip-
tion list should be one that the paper
merits. A young lady wants an auto
and she finds the newspaper a ready
field to get one. She enters the race.
She tackles John Smith for a sub
scription for year; he subscribes and
she gains a thousand or more votes.
The contest wakes warm. She feels
that she Will lose out II her friends do
not come to her relief. She tackles
John Smith again and tells him her
tale of woe, and begs and beseeches
him to subscribe for five years in ad-
vance. The consequence is that Smith |
has newspaper tor six years that he |
never looks at, and the newspaper has

Clipped Here and There

In the Hood River Glacier, our val
ued contemporary in the next county,
appears this statement on the part of
J. H. Hazlett. legislator and attorney
for irrigationists of the valley, in re-
gard to the designs this city has on
water from the east fork of Hood
river:
If The Dalles can show that water
for domestic supply cannot be secured
from another source, it can condemn
rights of irrigation concerns on the
local stream and use the water. But
it is self-evident that The Dalles can
secure pure water from other sources
without coming to the Hood River
valley. The waters of the east fork Of
Hood river are all needed for irriga-
| tlon. Litigation over rights to the
stream IS now in process of adjudica-
tion before the circuit court. +"
j. I. Rorick, chairman of the water
commission, emphasized that very
point before the recent election. He
repeated it at the meeting Wednesday
night.
Mr.. Kelly and DR.. Thompson suggest
invocation of the right of eminent do
main to secure the water from the east
fork.
In the name of the greater number
to be benefited they mean, by legal
process. to seize these waters. But
eminent domain is strictly and care
fully construed by the courts. 1t in
wolves personal rights and is admins
trated under the federal constitution.
As Mr.. Hazlett is quoted to have said,
we will have to show a fair ly pressing
necessity for those waters condition
amounting to water famine which we
are unable to alleviate from other
sources.
If we go into the courts over this
matter. the judges are liable to sug-
gest that the mighty Columbia flows
at our doorstep, that the Deschutes is
10 miles away, and in the light of ex-
pert testimony always secured in such |
cases, the engineers might even reveal |
that Mill creek and its tributaries have |
enough water to give this city suffi-
cient supply if it is properly husbanded.
The courts are not going to cater to
our particular tastes for mountain
water. Water is water they have ruled
time and again. If we say that CO.
lumbla river water has to be pumped
over the city and filtered; that De-
schutes water unless piped for a tre-
distance, would likewise re-
quire artificial cleansing; if we COM
plain that artesian water befouls boil
ers and makes men SICK the courts
will very likely point to scores and
hundreds of cities in this country less
fortunately situated than The Dalles
and remark that they also pump and
liter their water.
st. Louis for instance, filters and
pumps and drinks water from the
and takes it at a point
where it is literally mixed with mud
rom the Missouri river. The water is
TASTY stuff to a westerner, but the

ases traceable to water has been but
lightly greater in recent years than

About the main topic of thought and
conversation nowadays is the depres-
sion in all lines of endeavor. All of
the conditions prevailing during the
war and the reaction that is now TAX
ing the place of wartime initiation has
been understood and expected by
those of us who have been in similar
experiences and those others who
have made study of war causes and
war effects. To this class the slump
has been expected and has caused no
surprise, but to the younger genera
tion who have not had the experience
and to those who have not made'~a
study of the causes and effects, it has
been rude awakening from success
sion of what might be termed day
dreams But now that the inevitable
has happened it is well that we stop
our mad career of extravaganza and
inflated ideas and take an invoice of
stock. We have been buying and in
dulging in extravaganza like a drum
ken sailor on shore leave. In fact,
we have bought regardless Of price,
and the higher the price the better it
has suited us. We have had not only
our heads but our feet in the clouds.
All of us have been more or less gull
ty. We must quit airplaning and get
down to the earth. We must quit
thinking in the terms of billions and
go back to pennies. We must once
again govern the outgo by the income
and be mighty careful that the outgo
does not exceed the income. We
must remind ourselves again that a
champagne appetite cannot be sup
ported by beer income. In short, we
must accept the inevitable without
reservations, we must economic,
keep cool and use horse sense.

WHAT IS v,rAM,Ne?

Vitamine Is new word. 1t has not
yet been accepted by the scientific
world because the thing for which it
stands has never been definitely iden-
titled. DR.. McCollum has not accepted
the term, yet his idea of what 1t
stands for is identical with that of
the men who furnished the name and
applied it to the substance found in
milk which gives to milk and certain
other foods their most valuable pro-
perties.
Vitamine Is growth-promoting
substance. 1t does not exist in all
foods. 1t has been found in milk, in
eggs. in the liver and kidneys of
animals and in the leaves of plants.
1t has always existed and mankind
has been benefited by it, but we have
attributed its virtues to the proteins
of different foods. About all that is
known about it is that if it is present,
| there will be growth and development
be no growth, and the animal or hu-
man being attempting to live on such
diet developes all the symptoms of
malnutrition and is readily suscepti-
BILE to disease.
The vitamine content of milk consti-
tutes the strongest argument for its
sale. Because there is no food that
can be substituted for it, milk must
be sold and consumed II human be-
ings would secure this growthpromo-
ting element.
Claims have been made that the
vitamines are found in animal fats
and in meat. The manufacturers of
margarine contend that their product
is substitute for butter because 1t
contains the growth-promoting vita.
mine. There is no evidence to support
this claim. DR. McCollum contends tina.
the amount of vitamines in animal fats
is negligible. and no other scientist
of note has found them in sufficient
quantity to justify the claim.
There is no substitute for milk or
butter or any other dairy product,
When this truth is established in the
minds of consumers, then dairy pro.
ducts will have a value hitherto un-
known. 1t is a responsibility resting
upon those who produce and manu-.
facture product to acquaint the pub.
lie with its value. Unless this is done,
consumers cannot be blamed If they
provide market for an imitation. es-
pecially when it can be secured at half
the price.
The vitamine is Invaluable to the
human being. The men who are en-
gagged in producing IL are folIowin3
one of the most essential pursuits that
relate to human life.-The Dairy Far.

The disappointed spud growers of
this section might follow the example
set by the cantaloupe growers of the
Rocky Ford region. When the whole
southland began to raise genuine
Rocky Ford cants and to flood the
whole country with them weeks before
the genuine Fords were ripe, thus re-
ducing the price until they brought
scarcely enough to pay for the crates,
the Rocky Ford people turned their
entire acreage and attention to raising
genuine Rocky Ford cantaloupe seed
Now they are making money instead
of losing it. Our spuds have such a
good reputation that our growers
might profitably, at least more profit
ably than now. devote their efforts
exclusively to the raising of Western
Slope spud seed.
