Ilather than attempt comparison in the mind,
place the goods side by side. It is the only, safe
way, for whenever unreasonably low prices" are
given by skimping quality, the ilser of the merchan
dise must certainly lose in the end. The quality
of Hub sample merchandise has such a well known
high standard of genuineness that emphasizing the
fact is unnecessary. Yet Ave want you to carry the
tmth in mind when reading of our remarkable value.

An organization of fruit men of
Union county is called to convene
at Imbler June 2ti, La Grande June
it, anil Cove June 28. These meet
ings arranged by County Agricultur
ist Paul H. Soillman. will be held for
the purpose of considering methods of
improving the murketing conditions
by the adoption of the plan known, as
tne unuorm contract system ot plan
ning of marketing developed bv spec
ialists of the U. S. Bureau of Organ
ization and Markets. J. he speakers
for these meetings will be J. C. Skin
ner, editor of the Poitland Fruit
Marketer, G. L. Hurd, representative
of the Agricultural College Bureau of
Organization and Markets, and W. S.
Brown, representing the College Ex
tension service.
These meetings arc held with a-
view to interest growers in the gov
ernment plan of marketing horticul
tural products by the uniform con
tract plan. The plan is the result of
investigational work carried on by
United States government experts
duiing the last two years. It con
templates the uniform marketing of
horticultural products by nil growers
of the four northwestern states,
Montana, Idaho, Washington and Ore
gon. Excellent progress has been
made in the three former states and
the work of oiganizing the fruit
growers of Oregon is proceeding vig
orously.
According to this plan the Growers'
association and the selling agency all
sign a uniform contract. This pro
vides for uniform business procedure
and system of accounting designed to
peimit the grower to make a correct
comparison of the efficiency of the
marketing methods of his district with
that of other districts. This will be
accomplished through a system of
market reports made possible through
the assistance offered by the United
States government. The full details
of the plan for improving the market
ing conditions of horticultural crops
will be explained by Mr. Skinner.
. Professor Brown will explain the
meihods of the physical handling of
the fruit in order to comply with the
requirements of the plan. This will
include the time of packing, orchard
management at harvest time, essen
tials of a community packing plant,
necessary equipment, the standard
ized pack and proper storage.
The advantages of co-operative over
individual marketing methods will be
explained by Professor Hurd, who will
also assist the growers in effecting
I the organization. Mr. Hurd will ex
I plain the essentials for successful co
I operation, name the most frequently
encountered obstacles, and show how-
best to avoid them. He will also sug
gest types of organisation and sub
mit by-laws. He will explain the
methods of incorporation and outline
some of the features of association
management. He will further show
that by a comprehensive study of co
operation in the local community as
sociations it will be possible for the
grower readily to understand the sys
tem of co-operation amongst the
growers of the four states.

Bertha Kalich, one of the greatest
of actresses and the only dramatic ar
tist in the world who can be seriously
considered as the successor to Sarah
Bernhardt, has signed a contract with
William Fox to act before the motion
picture camera and appears in the
recently released photodrama "Slan
der." Mme. Kalich has been much averse
to appearing in motion pictures until
she felt very certain that the picture
plays selected for her were of the
quality and type designed to intro
duce her favorably to the American
photoplay public and in such a way
as tc add to her artistic achievements.
After weeks of negotiations with Wil
liam Fox and other several produc
ers held out tempting offers she
reached the decision that Fox pictures ,

for growth in an art with which she
