Bather Anderson, Ross Burslck, Edward Cachelua. They are all Intensely interested lu their work and no doubt the two weeks training will prove entertaining, as well as educational. Oscar Buoklund, of Elgarose apent yesterday in this city attending to bustneea matters. . The first hint of the market price on prunes for this season is con tained in an offer made to Loyal V. Emery of 8 cents base with a straight quarter drop. The 8 cent rate Is made on a basis of 30-35s and the drop on each small size Is a quarter cent. This Is Just half the price that was being offered last year. Many growers last season, however, re fused to accept 1 cents, and the price then dropped several cents and many were unable to dispose of Uieir crops. It Is believed this season that the price will go slightly higher than thiB initial offering. It is expected that the average price will be at least It cents or over as the market at the present time Is fairly strong. There la a big holdover from last season, but with a failure of the prune crop over all of the northwest with tho exception of Douglas county, it is expected that the price will be fairly good. Douglas county will have a normal crop this season, aitnougn otner counties are far below average. This will mean that buyers will turn to this county and the top price will be commanded. Just what the top pride will be is purely speculative, but from the offer Just made it Is expected that 10 cents will be the average price paid. Figuring this as the base price on 30-35s the average to growers would be about 9 hi cents. JUBILEE 10 BE STAGED JUNE Supporters of Bond and Bonus Bills Will Hold Mon ster Celebration June 24.

Kiug Oil has suddenly come in for widespread popularity here aud King Coal's dic tatorship over the British industry is a thing of the past, according to ex pert opinion.

Fuel oil pne ot America's favor ite fuola but hitherto virtually un known In England, has come to stay, according to ' authoritative predic tion. British public services and Indus try will never again be wholly de pendent on coal. Unacquainted with the simplicity of Installing oil hurmtra, thJ British people were rather astonbhed to learn that immense power plauts could, in an emergency, be converted in a very few days from coal to oil. That'a Just what happened. When tho coal pinch caused widespread einbnrraamont, fuel oil firms were consulted and asurod all Inquirers big Flocks of fuel oil were being held in the country and quick deliveries could be mndo from abroad to re plenlsh the groat tanks.
