Sturgeon Few In Robinette After Sport Last Year IMBLEK (Spectal) Down at Robinette, Ore., on the 8nake river In Baker county fishermen are won dering what has become of the stur geon. Last season the disciples of Isaac Walton flocked to this little town on the 8nake and found sport that any king might envy. Even the tyros vent home with fish that made the greatest lies tbey had ever told of fish that got away sound like a piker's catch. Most of them reported the weight only In hundreds of pounds the odd pounds, more or less, didn't matter much. But this year Robinette Is like unto the storied Mudvtlle when Casey struck out. There Is no Joy In Rob inette because the sturgeon have struck out for parte unknown. Only one lone wayfarer has been Inter cepted by hook and line and that one a baby of 145 pounds. And speaking of fish stories Rob inette has this one to offer. Dad Holcomb. of nearby Eagle Valley, was riding a horse one day about ten years ago along the river Just below Robinette and thereby hangs a tale. "Hangs" Is hardly the word pro jected might do anyway the tall was sucking out of the water and It belonging to a big fellow feeding In the mud close to the bank. Now "Dad" was a man of unquestioned courage. He slipped his lariat over the sturgeon's tall and drew It taught and fastened the other end around his waist. Then the fun began. For once In his life Dsd had underestim ated his opponent for the aroused fish found It an easy matter to drag him off his feet Into deep water but luckily circled Into shallow water. Many times be was drug from shallow water to deep and back again until the big rish became stranded ajn the riffles and the halt drowned man was finally able to ycU for help. The fish waa pulled out or the river with a team of horses for It weighed more than 1400 pounds. Also there were eye witnesses to the landing of Dad's trophy and the weighing thereof who swear to the truth of all details of this tale. The writer after Inter viewing some of them and still look ing skeptical was told: "If you dont believe us there Is a witness over In your country Mr. Re Orlggs of Un ion, Oregon." ALCOHOL STOCKS LEAD MARKET TO NEW HIGH LEVEL NEW YORK, July 13 fP) Led by the alcohol group, stocks today stag ed one of the most buoyant perform ances of the 1933 bull market.

If they expect to get a campfire permit, after July l. according to announcement Just Issued by the regional forester here. Campfire permits are free, and may be had at any ranger station. They are required where campflres are to be built at any place except at des ignated campgrounds. "This requirement, which was in effect last year, was a infinite fac tor In curtailing man-csused forest fires." said H. Brandage. assistant regional forester In charge of fire control. "In many cases person, traveling over forest roads have been able to put out fire which were yet small enough to be handled by quick action on the f art or 4ne or two persons equipped with these tools." Even if such a fire emergency nev er arises, the tools are useful about camp, accorctng to expc synced, mountain travelers. The shovel Is almost Indispensable In making a safe place for the campfire: and both shovel and axe come In mighty han dy tn case a car gets off the road or into a soft spot. So "rememfber your shovel, suae ai.d water bucket beginning July 1." Is the timely warning now being issued. Shoe And Textile Industries Work To Extend Gains By Edward J. KrliVy BOSTON P) New England's -shoe and textile Industries, stimulated by improved buMnw conditions, are working hard to Improve their gains. The cotton Industry reports itself preparing for readjustments neces sitated by the national industrial re covery law, and already thousands of mill employes have been returned to work. Textile manufacturers in this sec tion hare reported that the better ment to date was more anticipatory than material. Most of the Increased activity In New England Is held due to the reduction of hours in the south and the prospective national schedule of two 40-hour shifts. Cotton consumption for May show ed a marked increase over previous months this year and the consump tion, IK), 4 53 bales, had been un equalled since April. 1931. The wool industry has haa Its rough spots during the present year, but still Is making a better show ing than last year. Led by hides, leather has gained in price SO to 60 per cent. Shoe manufacturers in this sec tion point to an Increased produc tion that obviously has been more than seasonal. Wages have advanced among the workers from 5 to 15 per cent and It was estimated recently that 60 per cent of the available factory help was getting some employment.
