CROP YIELD FORMS
RAILROAD PROBLEM
'ii,..i nns.n in fur the pmeiifercv of
moving the most enormous cereal crop
in the history of the country, the rail
roads of the country are preparing to
appeal to shippers. ronaitcnet'S, railroad
commissions ai.d all other like agencies
to asitt in avoiding a serious car
shortage. These were f ai ta dis-ufsid
in Cortland the first f the week by D.
W. t'ampU'11, assistant general maiia
U.t of the Southern Pacific Co., who
has just been on a four months' tour of
the east.
"There will he bumper crops through
out Nehraeka, Harlan. Illinois, Iowa,
und, in fact, in all central western
i-tates, an'i of course wn all know that
the out I. ii k here promises a banner
jji Id," !-ail Mr. Campbell. "What the
railroads purpose doing is to make a
Kn'ral appeal to all shippers to load
thi ir cars to the maxium capacity, fo
that they miiy not be distribiitnl be
yond our reach with only part loads.
All the roads will join in this appeal,
i.nd in addition to urging maximum
loads we shall also urge the quickest
possible dispatch in loading, and con
versely we shull i'.sk the consignees to
Hit up nights, if necessary, to unload
the cars when received, so they may be
placed in use elsewhere as soon as pos
sible. "The situation is a serious one and
we shnll need the help of the shipping
public. We shall request the railroad
commissions to do what they ean.to
expedite the movement of business.
What 1 said about sitting up nights to
load and unload cars is not empty per
aillage. Jhu railroads have to do that
to supply cars when ordered, and even
then we sometimes face a serious short
age; and if we can get the people who
need the cars to do a little 'sitting up'
with us, I feel confident that we will
lie able to face the conditions which
the unprecedented crop movement will
bring about.
"'Ihe railroads here anil in the middle
west are increasing their forces of
npecial agents who will cover the great
cereal belts and check the rolling stock
inid see that it is working at its maxi
mum of efficiency.
"The car shortage danger will not be
severe if all the railroads and all the
shippers pull together. Kight now
California and Oregon are using a large
amount of equipment in moving their
fruit crops, and as the destination will
lie eastward to the big markets, theBu
ears will be moving in the right direc
tion for easy distribution when the
heavy demand for movement of the
wheat crops seta in in the miiiine
west."

UNITARIANS VISIT
WHITE SALMON
Members of the local Unitarian
church, about 70 strong, journeyed
across the Columbia Sunday aboard the
new ferry boat of Commodore O. C.
Dean and Ollie Sheplar to spend the
day at the home of George L. Aggera,
where an open air picnic was enjoyed
and where Kev. H. A. MacDonald de
livered a strong sermon. A number of
Underwood people were also present at
the gathering of the folks from the
dilTerent communities.

tieo. I. Slocom and J. B. Canfield ac

Mr. Slocom and Mr. Canfield visited
the power house and dam of the North

wonderful plant there," said Mr. Can
lield. "The hoys have rigged up a
wireless station. They talk every day
with Nume.Alaska, Honolulu and Mare

twice a day from Mare Island."
MR. AND MRS. BIRGE
ENJOY AUTO TRIP
Mr. and Mrs. K. W. liirge, of Edge
wood orchard on the West Side, re
turned Monday evening from a 1100
mile automobile trip that took them
down through the Willamette and
Koguo. Kiver valleys, into the Crater
Lake district, over the Siskiyous,
through the Klamath lake community
into California and returning by way
of central and eastern Oregon.
"We had a most enjoyable time,
spending three weeks on the journey,"
said Mrs. liirge Tuesday. "We had
no trouble with the machine. The
roads in eastern Oregon and California
are far better than those of the Will
amette Valley countries. And the road
over the Siskiyoua was pretty bad.
We had some excellent fishing in the
Klamath country."

FOLCK WILL FEED
HAY TO LAMBS
him
Hood Kiver. Ore., June 2!i, lllll.
I desire to again caution the public
against the custom of addressing mail
matter to "1'ine (Jrove or Oak Grove,"
intending it to bo delivered in Hood
Kiver county.
I'ino Grove is in Umatilla county and
Oak Grove is in Clackamas county, and
of course there are no such postollices
in Hood Kiver county, and any mail so
addressed will go to one of these
unices.
Mail is constantly being held at
those ollices that is intended fur Hood
Kiver county, and this ollice gets the
blame, whereas blame should attach to
the aender only.
The pustal department insists on
more care lining used by the public in
the matter of correct addressing of
mail, and we are urged to usu our
eirorts to "relieve the postal service of
the burden imposed by the growing
evil of incompletely and improperly ad
dressed mail."
So, pleasa address your mail correct
ly. Kivu street number or route num
ber, and trouble about delayed mail
will be avoided.
Kemember that the postmaster,
clerks and carrier are not supposed or
required to address your mail, or to
"guess" at its destination or to take
time to inquire where the addressee
can be found,
A little euro on the part of the pat
rons will be worth while for all of us,
und where that is done, wo will en
deavor to do our part at all times.
Jay I". Lucas, Postmaster.
EAST IGNORANT
OF THE WEST
The east is woefully ignorant of thv
west. "It is raher disgusting," says
James K. Montgomery, who sends the
clipping appearing below, which was
taken from the New York Annalist of
June 1", a reputable financial paper.
In a recent announcement of two large
Spokane banks combining, the Wall
street journal said in its leadilnes,
"Oregon Hanks Merge." The freak
clipping sent by Mr. Montgomery fol
lows :
"Men working in the forests of
western Oregon wear tin leggings.
'I hose are necessary to protect them
from the rattlesnakes that infest that
section. The undergrowth is so dense
that it is almost impossible to see
where one is stepping. Wherever there
is a break in this tangle the reptiles
come out to sun themselves. They
stretch out at full length and go to
sleep. As they are almost the same
color as the foliage, the woodsmen
frequently step on them several times
a day. In order to protect themselves
from the fatal l ite strike the tin leg
gings were evolved. As a result, few
woodsmen suffer from being bittun by
these dangerous reptiles."
MAYOR WARNS BOYS
AS TO FIREWORKS
A. W. Folck. of the Upper Valley
in the Mount Hood district, was in
eastern Oregon last week securing a
hunch of lambs, to which he will feed
his surplus hay this winter.
"1 expect to have 150 tons of hay
thia year," said Mr. Folck, who was
in the city the first of the week to take
home a new hay rake. "I figure that
the feeding of the lambs will be more
profitable thun to sell the hay.
Mr. Folck has been hauling out new
machinery on every trip to the city
this year. In addition to his hay fields
he has an orchard, from which he will
harvest a good crop this fall. He ex
pects to bring his lambs to the valley
tins fall.
Mr. Folck has about an acre of
beaver dam land on his place. He
plaiiB on setting this to celery.
MORSE WILL GO

ent, aays (hat at the present time on
account of the many residents who are
allowing their sprinklers and hoses to
go, aome all night long, the entire mil
lion gallon daily flow of the Tucker
spring is being used up.
"I am not going to issue warnings as
I have in the past few weeks," says
Mr. Morse, "but I am simply going to
put on a few inspectors and when we
catch anyone sprinkling out of hours

Koosters may be a thing of the past
in Portland soon. Either that or roost

Taylor street, the City Commission is
going to consider an anti-rooster or an
anti-"erow" ordinance.
Mr. Martin, in a letter to the com
mission, says roosters are a source of
much annoyance to people all over the
city and chicken raisers in the United
States lose about f 15,(Hi0,tHKi each ytar

LABORERS IN THE VINEYARD.
Matthew 20:1-16 July 5.
"tit ma kith II m mm to rtue on the '(! and

and on Ihe uiiUt." Matthew i.fS.
CII1S parable U difficult of Inter
pretation 80 as to make all Its
features llnd fulfilment The
(Jreat Teacher gave It as a
parable of the Kingdom; hence It ap
plies to the Chun U'a eiperleuces dur
ing this Gospel Age. If we apply the
dilTeieiit Intervals to different epochs
lu this Age, we have dllllculty; for the
Apostles uud others called early In the
Age did not labor throughout the en
tire period. Again, lu so applying It,
we face the proposition that only those
lit the beginning of the Age had dcll
nlte promise as respects a reward that
all others received merely the assur
ance that they would get what would
be right.
Another illlllculty lu Interpreting the
parable Is how to apply the linn inur
ing of those first called and last re
warded. Other Scriptures show us
that the Apostles
und others of the
curly Church will
experience their
r e s u r r ect Ion
change before
those living at
Christ's Second
C o m I n g . Fur
thermore. It Is
unthinkable that
the Apostles and
others of the
early Church
would uiuriuur
at their reward.
All these (lilliciiltJes must be borne
In nUnd when wo attempt to fit this
parable to the experiences of the
Church as a whole during the Age.
If we apply the parable to Individual
experiences, we have trouble also. Ap
plying It thus, we might say that those
who began a Christian life early, and
are found faithful In the Lord's serv
ice at the evening time of life, would
be those first called and promised u
rewind Others coining In later and
serving the Lord with only a portion
of their time, strength and talent
would correspond to those called later
-even at the eleventh hour, if we In
terpret the parable as meaning that
all will get a similar reward regard
less of the time spent In the Master's
service, we still have difficulty with
the fact that those called earliest were
dissatisfied.
How then can we apply this parable
consistently. In harmony with other
Scriptural teachings respecting the re
ward of the Kingdom class? The only
way of which we can think Is to apply
It entirely to present life experiences
of the Kingdom class, especially of
those living at the close of this Age
Privilege of Ditcipleship th Penny.
For slxteeu hundred years and more
the Jews awaited Messiah's Coming
and the blessed opportunities which It
would bring. When Jesus began Ills
ministry. He preached, "The Kingdom
of Cod Is at hand." and gave the Jews
the privilege of entering into It. That
privilege was a "penny" a reward for
their faithful eudoavor to keep the
. -
Laborert In Ihe Vine-tarxt.
Law. Rut when the offer of the King
dom was promulgated, 8ome publicans
and sinners were attracted. These new
laborers were received by the Lord
Jesus and given opportunity to become
His disciples.
Tbo Scribes nnd the Pharisees, faith
ful to Clod nil their lives, murmured at
any arrangement ns unfair which
would not give them the first opportu
nities of the Kingdom. If publicans
and sinners were to obtain the blessed
privileges of disclpleshlp with Messiah,
surely, they thought, some still higher
favor should come to them.
As the Kingdom was offered to the
Jews In Jesus' day, and those newest
in Divine service received the same op
portunities for a Bhare with those long
engaged, so apparently It Is to be in
the end of the Gospel Age. As greater
knowledge of Present Truth Is now
coming as a reward to all In the
Lord's vineyard, let us not be surpris
ed If this shall be equally distributed
to those recently coming lu and to
those long lu the Master's service.
Let not our hearts be angry because
the Lord Is gracious to those who have
entered Ills service even during the
eleventh hour. Are they not brethren?
Any feeling on the part of those long
In Divine nervlce that they must have
more manifestation of the Lord's favor
now U evidently wrong.

Oregon Will Have Unique Fair Feature
A prominent feature of the Panama
Pacific exposition will be an extensive
Oregon out of doors life display to cost
approximately $10,000. An area 60x350
feet between the Oregon building and
the bay shore has been secured by the
Oregon commission and contracts have
been let for the initial work. This
feature will be unique at the exposi
tion, nothing of the sort being at
tempted by any other state. One of
the most interesting features will be a
miniature reproduction of,200 miles of
the Columbia river, showing fisheries,
night signals, rapids and waterfalls.
This realistic bit of scenery will extend
approximately tiO feet. In addition, it
is announced that a reservation of
7,000 square feet has been made for
Oregon in the palaces of horticulture,
agriculture and food products.
