BERLIN, March 9 The Tageblatt
fiercely assailed President Wilson's
changed attitude since making his
Senate peace speech. He pictured
the United Slates as a "gleeful bene
ficiary of European civilization's
deathbed." It charges that the
President has abandoned the Monroe
doctrine. It called Bryan the Presi
dent's chief opponent, and quoted
Bryan as saying, "America is in dan
ger of being dragged into war un
reasonably." A high official vigorously denied
that (iermany has stopped making
Zeppelins. He declared that ample
material and plenty of workmen are
available for their manufacture.
Several smallpox cases were discov

vaccinated.
Count Zeppelin's funeral arrange

There was much general western

One of i he largest hauling con

time was signed this morning when
the II. S. French Transfer Company
agreed to haul between tl.ooo and

the Curry ranch and to employ two
auto trucks when the work is com
menced about June 1 .
This hauling will supply the city
with t lie larger share of wood ior
(he following fait and winter and
greatly relieve the situation of wood
scarcity which has been felt lor the
past several mont hs. The wood is
new being cut on the ranch by W.
11. Kenny, who ulso has a cont raci
t he size of which has seldom been
equalled in this part of the state.
Ity the time the roads are ready lor
the hauling, the wood will be thor
oughly dry and a constant supply of
the hest material will be on hand at
all t hues.
To handle the hfg contract, the
t rails l'er company will secure t wo

lone and on e-h all' t o n n i n .eh i n e a n d
1 l lie present two ton t ruck will be

A, 1,. Kit chin, manager of thu
Umpiiua Valley Fruit Union, which
conducts its headquarters In North
ltosebuig, informed The Review this
morning that ho had received three
cratea or broccoli, or winter cauli
flower, as it Is best known through
out the Kastern states. The broccoli
delivered hero today was grown by
William Pemberton ,of Green, and Ih
said to bo of excellent variety.
Hecause or the recent cold weather
the growth of the broccoli was re
larded mid it Is not expected that the
llrst carload of the product will leave
Itoseburg until late next week.
Other consignments will follow iih
Tasl uh the broccoli can be crated ami
loaded on the cars. It Is predicted
that between 1511 and 20)1 carloads
of ihe product will be shipped out of
Douglas County this year. Practi
cally all of the broccoli grown here
will be handled through the John
Nix Company, of Chicago. This firm
has handled thu Pnipo.ua Valley
broccoli for several yearu and the re
turns were satisfactory to the grow
ers. In an Interview given out by H.
A. Knsor, of lOugene, yeHtorday, and
which Is some what premature, ho
had the following to say regarding
the marketing and growing of the
Houglas County broccoli:
"The first shipments of broccoli,
or winter cauliflower, that will be
grown In hn n e Con n t y this yea r
somewhat extensively, are being
iud H'tw from Dougltv. tymty.
The broccoli is going to Portlaud and
to the Chicago und other Kastorn
markets, where it is rery much In
demand Just now because green
vegetables from Florida have not be
gun to arrive.
"The broccoli being shipped now
was set out late In June and early In
July of last year ami is Just now
maturing. It. is reaching the market
when no other green product Ih
available, except hot house lettuce."
This Is (he best time for It to ma
ture, according to Mr. Hasor, and be
cause of this Ihe Willamette und
iinMua Valleys are well adapted lo
i the crop. In California It matures
I In November and December, when
' other products are on the market.
I llroeeoM will not grow on every
j kind of laud. Mr. Hasor has esti
' mated that about H per cent of the
laud now In cultivation In Lane
County will grow the product suc
cessfully. His company Ih willing,
however, to help experimenters and
will furnish seed ami crates and pay
$100 for Ihe broccoli raised on every
acre this year, regardless of how
much this may be. Already 40 or
ru farmers have signed up to raise
I he product, some on a large and
so in e on a small scale,
