.DOWES LAUDS LABOR AS
BIG COMMUNITY ASSET

The Aberdeen Central Labor coun-
ell and organized labor as a whole
is one of the most vital and needful
influences in Aberdeen, S. K. Bowes,
county commissioner, said in an inter-
view today. Mr.. Bowes, who was
one Of the leaders in the movement
that resulted in organized labor par
ticipating in the county fair, also
asserted that the American Fedora
ton of Labor has done more to sta
Billie the industry of the nation, to
increase the living standards and add
to the general prosperity Of the ma
ton than any other single organiza-
ton.
In the interview, Mr.. Bowes de-
clared that organized labor as con-
Quoted on Grays Harbor, approaches
the ideal so long sought but never
found in many other places in the
world.

SLIDING SCALE PLAN
Rejected BY MINERS

PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 10.-The
scale committee Of anthracite mine
operators have declared for a method
Of wage adjustments "from time to
time to allow prices for our product
that will enable it to move freely in
competition with other fuels"
This has aroused the miners who
say it means a sliding scale, with no
bottom The miners show that it
means a perpetual contract based on
market conditions, without regard for
their welfare.
The miners declare they have pas
sed beyond the age of serfdom. They
point to conditions in the British coal
fields, which, they assert, is the re-
suit of the sliding scale, under which
the wages "slide only one way =
down."
Both sides agreed on a plan to pro-
tect mines while the work suspension
is on. The terms include the en-
ployment Of 10000 pumpmen, en-

LOAN ASSOCIATIONS
HEAD ALL FINANCIAL
INSTITUTIONS IN GROWTH

An address delivered by W. o. Me-
Cav, President Of the Washington
State League Of Savings and Loan
associations, at Olympia on Wednes-
day, confined some interesting facts
concerning the growth Of savings and
loan associations the past year:
ssNo better indications of the
growth and prosperity Of the state Of
Washington can be shown than by
the savings and loan associations.
July closed the financial year and
shows that the So associations of the
state have assets of over $68, 800, 900,
and that the increase during the IL
months covered by the report was
over S16,0OO,00O. This represents
the investment of .195,o58 members
and is about IL per cent Of the total
population Of the state The growth
for the past year exceeds by $4,000
600 the total assets Of the state six
years ago. It is estimated tia about
5000 snew homes were financed by
he aid Of savings and loan associa-
tions. Counting five persons to the
family, respectable city capable Of
housing $4,000 persons was added to
the taxable wealth.
Washington Assets High
washington has advanced to the
18th rank in point Of assets in the
United States, and its average rate
of increase is almost double that Of
the United States when taken as q
whole. The average investment per
person however is $3.50, for this state
as compared to s577, for the United
States"

Street Journal calls attention to- the

At its coming the barriers dividing
artisan and artist vanish as the mists
of the night before the rays of the
morning sun.
Inspiration, that heavenly messen-
ger at whose touch man works mar
wells, reaches out with lavish hand.
Labor then stands forth a shining
creature, respleI dent in the realiza-
ton Of his being as the image and
likeness of the Creator.

ssNo class Of financial institution
has during the last decade developed
3 more rapid growth OF exerted q
more beneficial influence upon the
civic and economic life Of the nation.
These associations now hold a most
important place in the financial struc-
ture Of the country and are doing
more than any other agency in pro-
noting the saving habit and providing
the means for the securing Of homes.
They are essentially community
builders and creators Of taxable
wealth, practically all of their funds
being devoted to home building or
home owning purposes. Their loans,
secured by mortgages upon these
homes, are admittedly the best and
soundest security in the whole world
of investment
The State Supervisor of Savings
and Loan has just issued a CONSOLE
dated financial statement for the
state Of Washington. An interesting
item therein shows the remarkable
growth in Grays Harbor County:
Five years ago the total assets in
savings and loan associations in this
county was $4,000, with $129, 600
of this amount in Aberdeen and $49s-
600 in Hoquiam. July Of this year
showed a total of $3,990, 278.62, Of
which $S,29e, 93O.46 was in Aberdeen,
and $691, 34s.62 in Hoquiam."

ADVISES GROWING OF
ONIONS IN TERRELL
COUNTY AGENT SAYS SOIL
HERE is WELL ADAPTED
TO THEIR CULTURE.

The onion should by all means be
given prominent place in the 1926
Terrell county farm program, accord
ing to County Agent A. (. Gibson
who has not only had considerable
experience in growing and marketing
onions. but declares that the light soils
of the county will produce onions OF
the highest quality.
No farmer should plant large acre
age 20 onions, but they should have
a place on every farm, but unless the
land on which they are to be planted
is made fertile the results will not be
very pleasing.
The yellow or straw colored Bermu-
da is the best adapted type Tor the
south. and for each acre to be planted
from three to four pounds OF seed
should be sown in beds during the
month of October When the plants
have grown to slightly less than the
size of a lead pencil they should be
transpanted in rows thirty inches
wide and from four to SIX inches IN
the drill, depending on the fertility OF
the soil on which they are planted;
the richer the soil the thicker they
may be planted.
On land that is to be planted in on
ions it will no doubt pay to broad
cast four to six loads OF well rotted
stable manure to the acre and turn
under at least four weeks before the
plants are transplanted Not less than
800 pounds of the following amount
of commercial fertilizer should be
used to the acre: 200 pounds OF nj
trate of soda, $50 pounds Of cotton
seed meal, $50 pounds Of acid phos-
phate 90 per cent?, and 800 pounds
OF muriate Of potash, making mixed
fertilizer analyzing approximately
7-5-8. 1t has been found that the mu-
rate of potash produces the best quail
ity of onion and if the fertilizer Tor
onions is bought from mixer it,
should contain this form of potash.
Mr.. Gibson states that he will be
glad to assist those who plant onions
in securing the seed. The present price
for good seed is about $1.75 per bush
Ell.
