Prune Market Open In Clarke County VANCOUVER, Wish.. June Prune packing corporation enteral the buying field in Clarke counly this week and are mterai.linf to con tract fr this year s crop at 16 cents a pound. Kew growers have agreed to sell their crop at this price and the majority are .vailing lor nUhor quotations. Although prunes on the trees sold for as high as 20 cents a pound lakt year, the first offer made to the t-'rowers was about U cents, and it Id said that 95 yer cent of the Clarke crop last year went to the packers for My, cents a pound. In view of Itst yenr'a figure, tho preliminary price offered by the packers Indl ciites that prunes will bo hlglior than ever this year and will be ellmtn ted from the tables of boanlin; bonuses and chean roman-nnn f ried prunes from the 1919 crou re tailed far a high as 45 cents a pound. No price for the 1920 crop has been set by tie Clark County Prun Growers' association, a co-operative organitatlon of farmers, a. id as the association controls nearly half the prune acreage of I bp county. It will i 1 all probability prove the greatest factor In fixing the price to be paid by the consumer. The association vlll sell Its product through the Ore ton Prune Growers' association this year. The Oregon association, which maintains offices in the east, has axred to sell the crop without recompense, as the uniform distri bution of the large Clarke crop will stabilise tho market. EDITORS MEET AM) DISC ISS I'Al'I.U SHORTAGE BOSTON, June 2. The newspa 1 er shortage as discussel Monday at the National Editorial as&ocia tion annual convention here. A icsolrttnn, unanimously adopted and forwarded to Chairman Porter of the house foreign relations commit tee urged the passage of senate Joint resulution No. li2, designed to afford immediate relief in the imergency and to benefit country rewspapers. Edward Albright, Gallnlln. Tenn., president, declared "the ubiquitous profiteer is abroad In the print pa ler field lust as In many other lines." "My opinion Is," he added, "that (ongress should restrict the Issue on every newspaper to a maximum of so many pages per day and define a maximum page size. Large user? 'if print paper with their own milli or contracts should keco out of tin spot market. Congress also should uake a substantial appropriation fi r a determined effort to find a sub stitute for wood pulp." President P. T. Dodge, of the In lernational Paper Co., predicted higher prices for newsprint, due tc ihreateued rise In freight rales and vage demands by labor. He Bug seated somo amendment to the pos tal law requiring an added rate on newspapers above a certain weight and size. "Canada Is permitted to keep raw materials from us," be said, "and w long as we are thus deprived, the tntornatlortad Paper company will not put another dollar with my con sent Into American mills." 4000 DEATHS IX HMO. The people of the United States are asaln on wheels swift, pleasur -giving, but dangerous. Last year nearly 4000 persons were carried to .heir deaths at grade crossings alone. William K. Bigelow in May Good Housekeeping oays: "Three factors tear the most blame for these deaths: carelessness, or neglect of warnings; recklessness, or attempts to outrace trains; negligence, or fail ure properly to safeguard crossings. It drivers alone were the victims, the case against the man at the v.heel would be a serious one; but few are the accidents in which only f.ce Is killed. Usually two "or more passengers have placed themselves I it the mercy of the driver, counting upon him to exercise tnat caution which the state expects of every per se n authorized to drive a car. The sdded responsibility unfortunately does not increase the driver's cau tion' the reverse Is more often the ase. He talks with his passengers and odos not see or hear warnings; LIFT OFF CORNS!

MUTT AND JEFF CAN'T COME. PORTLAND. Or., June 2. Mutt and Jeff will not be able in attend the Shrine convention in Portland June 22 to 24. Too bad. .It may be that Mutt'a wife and little boy won't let him go so fur from home, even accompanied by Jeff, for fear the two will get in some kind of trouble and may be unable to find their way home Be that as It may. Bud Fisher cartoonist and creuator of Mutt and Jeff, has written under New York inte to Fred W. Ludwig, of Port land, as follows: "Thank you for your suggestion that Mutt aud Jeff join the Mystic Shrine at Portland, Oregon, and would be pleased to accept It, except that Mutt and Jeff run in newspapers from Shanghai, China, to Europe and from South America to Alaska, and becnuse of the wide scope of their activities It would be impossible for me to concentrate even on the Inrge and well known orders of Shriuers."

Hope that the cost of living for California canary birds wlil be reduced ironi its present level, estimated by cutiury dealers at about 25 cents a mouth. hu Bon. Mr- Hurgoyne has been vlsll to the old pl-e-war level which ran wllh allolhr ton In Eugene for from 10 to 15 cents, by bringing ; tu, past wt,eK canary bird seed direct from Argen-1 ' tmmm tine to the Pacific coast, is expressed by ttoracio . Cliceres, Argentine t consul-general at San r ranclsco. Argentine canary seed is practi cally the only kind sold in the mar ket here now, the Sicilian nnu Turkish varletiea having been crowd ed out by the war, and the elimina tion of overland freight charges rrom New York through the recent estab lishment of a new line of shipping board steamers from the Pacific coast to Argentina is expected by Cuceres to be of great Importance to thousands of birds In California. There is no reason why all the caged pongsters west of the Rocky mountains should nut givo Joyous chirps in expectation that direct im portation will reduce household ex penditures, according to A. K. Hart, manager of a seed Importing firm here. He said Im portal Inn at coast ports would enable seedmen to ship as far east as Denver in competition with the east. FLOWERS ELIMINATED. DENVER.
