A very Interesting session of the local Rotary club waa held today noon at which time the members listened to a short discourse on broccoli by John W.

Mr. Law atated that California had shipped approximately 3,000 enra of broccoli and cauliflower dur ing the present aeason and that fair sum had been realized on the crop. He stated that the Industry had grown to large proportions and was now practically on a cash basis so fnr as the growers are concern ed which, in his opinion, was the only profitable way for the produc era to deal with the packing com panies as experience had taught grower, that shipping on consign ment waa entirely unsatisfactory and lessened their chsncen for a reasonable profit on the product. The gentleman said this county hud msde excellent progress In the broccoli Industry and that there was a great future before the grow ers If the product was kept up to the highest standard. He aald that i h Is locality should so arrange, If possible to bring their crop ready for market a little later than at present so there will be opposition from California which product reaches the market earlier than that grown in Oregon.

In the meantime Bhertff J. I. Lowry of Fulton county ruled over the Imperial palace, general headquarter, of the klan, and Judge K. D. Thomas will resume bearing in the case tomorrow afternoon. Klansmen are reported arriving from all sections of the nation, some flocking to the standard of Emperor Simmons, while others were rallying around the faction headed by the im perial wizard. Shortly after Judge Thomas ordered Sheriff Lowry to continue at his post at the imperial palace, two warrants were Issued for N. N.
