The amateur, Vow.-ve-, should not make a rulhlcj a 'v with shears or pruning knife uj ; i everything in his yard. Flowering trees and shrubs that bloom In tho spring or early summer should not receive radical pruning at this time, according to the garden specialists of the United States department of agriculture. Of course, if on these plants there are dead or weak branches, these should be taken out, and any crossing limbs that are rubbing and Berlously Interfering with the growth of the hush should he removed. The tips of the limbs, "however, should not be cut off nor should any young wood that does not interfere with the growth of the bush be removed. It must be borne In mind that the blossom buds for this year's flowering were formed last year, and every shoot removed takes off that much of the prospec tive blossoms. m ALLOWED n R.

TIOX AT PAI,ACK Til KATItK Tho patrons of the Palace theatre last evening were accorded a rare treat when Ulcca. the well known vaudeville accordeon ist of the Pan tagea circuit, entertained with a number of splendid selections with t he help of the popular Palace or chestra. The large audience was generous with npplam'e und Ulcca had to respond with an encore after every number and owing to the satis faction given, the management of tTio theatre will keep him for the bal ance of the week. An especially good picture pro m;im was also offered with Wilton LacTteye and Rosemary Theby in the five-reel Hroadwuy It Was pointed out that with the enormous output which is estimated for the mill when in operation there will be a grent deal of travel over tho railroad between the fair grounds and the city. The wagon road between Roseburg and Dlxon vlllo Is one of the most widely used of any road In the .county, ipven more teams and autos pass over it than over the Pacific highway, and It Is necessary that nil protection possible be given farmers and travel ers over this highway which is trib utary to many miles of productive farm Innds. Although the crossings are aM open and because of this fact much danger is eliminated. It was thought that the heavy traffic would cause a great deal of danger, especially In the csp of farmers bringing heavy loads to the city and being forced to travel very slowly. Peyond Dixon vlll,. the traffic is not so heavy and the crossings requested wilt be al lowed by tho court. With thig matter settled the de cision of the supreme court is waited for with eagerness.

Although there Is little anxiety j over the decision from the supreme court Its delay retards the progress I of tho city In arranging the details necessary before actual construction work begins. The departments of the supreme court have had ft great deal of work to accomplish and the Vclsion in regard to this matter must come in Its proper time. A ease which was argued nt the same tlmt as the one in which the city Is con cerned has as yet received no decis ion. Tno reason for the delay un doubtedly being tho fact that Its turn has not come in the routine of court business.

Any matter coming before the club will be referred to the bu reau fitting the subject, the director of which will re-refer it to the chair man having that subject. The mat-j tor will be closely investigated and ; the results of the Investigation re-, turned to the director, who, In turn i will place It before the club or trus-, teeB, as the case may be. It la in-' tended to place men on the various sub-committees who are familiar ; with their subject, so that the results 1 of their Investigation may be tf value to the club. No action will be tak:n by the club In endorsing any matter without Investigation. At present 19 bureaus have been outlined, and several more are being considered. Each bureau having an : average of three sub-committees, artd ' each committee having three to five members working on It will give a force of about 200 men working for the benefit of the community, along constructive lines. The force of this; will be soon made apparent, and will surely result In a cleaner, healthier, more up-to-date, prosperous, Intelli gent and contented community. Ono radical departure from the usual practice of Commercial clubs was made when President Seely said In answer to a request of somo oC tho directors for a rosf,r of tho club' from which to select their commit tees: "I want every one of you men. In selecting your committees to pick the men who are best suited for that particular purpose for which they are nppolnted, whether they are mem bers of the club or not. If some of your appointees should not happen to belong to the club, it may be tho means of bringing them Into the fold, but if they do not care to join, don't let that bother you. Let them work with us anyway; it won'thurt us, and It will help the community. And always keep this thought upper-' most n your mind; we Are not here to help any selfish or private Interest, but to help the whole com munity. Advertising ojurseivps in the east is all very well, but first let us do what we can to make those who are already here, happy, prosperous and contented. That will be the best advertisement we can have." The directors promised to mako their appointments soon, and to use their best endeavors to make their bureaus active and successful. The club Is doing much real constructive work and will be able to soon show some concrete results. Great inter est Is being taken not only by the members but by non-members and a large Increase Is expected. Five hundred members by April 15, Is the mark set and, according to the trus tees, it bids fair to be reached.
