Advertisers Give Information
ii Fignre i It Oiitj For Yourself
Vou .want a home of your own everybody
does. You want to know about the cost or'
how to finance the building. Perhaps you
fvant ttv buy the lot, or it may be to inquire
about the furnishing of a room. Just ask the
advertisers they'll know.
The chances are good 'that' if you have been
keeping house in an- apartment o a -cottage
1 you have paid out enough in rental since you
have been married , to, have built a good
home,, and you don't have a, thing in the
world to show for it. Just figure it out.

FARM . REMINDERS
A succession of shrubs line Ore
gon lanes and highways through
out the entire year ami contribute
largely to the attractiveness of the
landscapes. A number of the more
popular of these shrubs beginning
with tho rhododendron and red
currant have been listed hy the
botanists of thu agricultural col
lego. The list has been . given
out by Dr. Helen M. (Mlkey of the
botany department.
The grain certification work of
Oregon farmers in - cooperation
with specialists of the Agricultural
College for the last nine years has
resulted In a distinct Improvement
in the typo of grain grown, the
experiment station reports. Any
farmer interested in producing
maximum yields of good quality
grain Is interested either in the
production or use of cert (fed seed.
The bacterial nature of western
filhert blight in Oreitnn was dls-j
covered by the experiment station
several years ago. It whs found i
that In tho whiter the bacteria arei
in the old rankers tm twig-4 nr'
steins. In some way, probably by I
insects, thoy gain entrance In somti
of !!! buds which are often com
pletely Killed. They may lso be i

,te: of this city, has been a resi
dent of Roseburg for thirty-seven
years and during that period he
jiias been a continuous' subscriber
to the News-Review . or Its prede
cessor. Our attention was directed
to this fact when Mr. Page made
a business call at this office last
week. It Is believed he is entitled
to the designation of this paper's
oldest patron from the standpoint
of time involved. 1 ,
Mr. Page is a native , of Big Is
laud, Virginia. Coming to Hose
burg with his family in 1890,; he
ut first followed the carpenter
trade, then, in 1892, he was ap
pointed city street commissioner,
holding that position eleven years.
He bus made live Hips to hts old
Virginia home, u distance of 37 UU
miles from this city.
"When 1 came to Roseburg thirty-seven
years ago I didn't know
anybody here," said Mr. Page. "At
first 1 didn't think I was going to
like the town, but after I was here
tor a year I decided I didn't want
to llvo anywhere else. 1 am still ot
the same mind,"

PROJECT ON FARM
William Cook, son of C. W. Cook,
has completed his agricultural Im
provement project on his father's
farm northwest of town. His pro

ner that all of the cows face the
same way so that feeding and car

terial and . labor was $G5.33. Mr.
Cook figures that a half an hour
a day is saved by the improve
