Carter, one of the progress! young ranchers near Core, managed to get 60 cents a bag for his potatoes. He had over a thousand bags and saw there was no money In sight for the crop. With his usual business sagacity lie began to figure bow much fat be could put on bogs with those po tatoes and arranged a cooking plant He has . been cook lux potatoes and mixing them wtth shorts and as a re sult he has netted a little over sixty cents a bag for his potatoes. AO cording to Mr. Carter there Is fre quently a way to make a market when the law of supply and demand goes against the producer. TIIE AIWOriiNED SESSION.

Ram sey, formerly of La Grande but now of McMlnnville, is to be chosen to the supreme bench in Oregon causes considerable satisfaction among the Judge's trends' In this part of the state. It is conceded by all that he will make 'a splendid man for the place and the fact that he ha lived In Eastern Oregon as well as the Willamette valley gives him a person al knowledge of the state that is worth while. To those who have never lived in tbt part of the state local conditions here are unknown and they cannot be gained from news papers or books. But Judge aAmsey is equipped with this information a' first hand. His ascendancy to the bench s looked upon by all as a Just recogntion of ability.
