LETTERS ON SEEDS RECEIVED BY CLUB Oak avenuo whero It crosses tbo rail road, to co what might bo necessary or feasible regarding a crossing there. The matter had been brought to tho council's attention by a- petition from tho residents of tho settlement across tho track. Tho city engineer report ed that the proposed location for a crossing was dangerous. This was not particularly pleasing to tho folks who are anxious to get to tho city's heart by a shorter route, and they believe that the city should hnvo tho city cnglner decide on u plan for a crossing. There Is a pave Icadlng from tho addition to the Oak street crossing and tbo railroad, when It graded to put down Its rails, put In an aproach on each side of the track. This Is quoted as evidence) of tho road's expectation and the city's Intention at that Hmo of having a regular traffic crossing. Tho problem has been before tbo council at different times for two or three )enrs, with various action or Inaction by tho city paters. If tho de mand for a crossing at Oak avenuo Is not soon Oiled, the Mills people ex pect to make a loud noise that will not bo particularly Joyful. On Saturday tho council street com mittee was out looking over the Sixth htrect route, where It would connect with Wantland arcnue. Somo time ago the city council took preliminary steps toward establishing a first clan grade out Sixth street, but the ulti mate work remains undone.

CALIFORNIA CANNOT OHOW HXOtaH TO SUPPLY HER, AND IDAHO FARMERS HAVE HAD TOO MANY VARIETIES Secretory C. P. Stewart of the Klamath Falls Commercial Club, who I In correspondence with outsiders who might give good suggestions to this community as to the klads of seeds which might be profitably used In tho Klamath Basin, Is getting sosae Interesting replies. A Sacramento Arm writes suggestions for use of potato growers, while the secretary of o farmers' union In Idaho writes In a way which shows that the farm ers of bis vicinity are having the some trouble as those of the Klamath Ha-sln. Following are two of the letters: "Gentlemen Your letter of 5th Instant at hand, and contents care fully noted. We real lie that you peo plo have some of the greatest potato crowing soil on the coast. We have had samples from there, and It proves to bo good, and crops up there should show the very best results. "California has always proved to be a good potato growing section, but so far has never been able to pro duce a sufficient amount of potatoes to meet the consumption, and owlag to the fact that our population Is r.rcatly Increasing and will continue to Increase, we fear we will asrre to draw larger quantities of potatoes from outside points la the future taaa wo hove heretofore. We are drawing from Oregon this season very heavily. nnd It there were a good crop of po tatoes In Klamath Falls to ship for ward to this state bow, yoa would certainly be right la the swim, sat tl'oy are bringing good money. We believe that the best seed and the most suitable seed for your sec don would be the American Wonders. They are a large, smooth, white pota to, and a potato that sells well. Be side, they are good keepers and good shippers. "Early spring potatoes we do not belle to you can do much with, as they must bo prepared In boxes for ship ment. But you take It for this com ing fall delivery, you could not And a more serviceable than the Amer ican Wonder. Yours truly. "WOOD-CURTIS CO." "Gentlemen In reply to your In quiry for seed potatoes, will state that we could furnish youthree or four cars of potatoes of as many dif ferent varieties as have ever been planted In any section of this 'conn- try, but not enough of any one varte-, ty to make any quantity desirable to ou or anyone else. It was this de plorable condition that made neces sary a meeting of the formers of Stttes, Idaho, to decide on a desirable variety of potatoes. "Two varieties, the Lightning Ex- pi ess and Burbank, were decided up- c.n. This movement Is tn Its primary stage, but the formers ate aware of a necessity for a more uniform produc tion all along the line. I am sorry .not I cannot give any useful Infor mation.
