The Western Lumber & Export coin puny hus completed the iiiHtuUutiou of through the muuipuhition o f a multipel ilb mill here, which takes the place of two swing trimmers uud will increase the production of the mill ubout 25 per ceut, which has been proved by the installation of similar machinery i l the J. 11. Chambers mill here and in ithei mills elsewhere. The number of men employed m the trimming depart ment hus beeu cut from 16 to 11, which effects quite u saving. The uew machinery hus beeu in op crutiou but teu days but is already dcuiouHtratiug its efficiency in speed mg up production. As the operators become more familiar with its opera t ioi . the speed w ith which lumber and timbers are sent through the saws will gradually increase until the movement o f timber to the .saws hardly will be ¿•topped as long as a supply o f lumber cuntuiues to be fed upon the trimmer table. There are 22 saws in the gang, set two feet apart, taking timber up to 42 feet, which it cuts ueatly to auy de lined length, cutting out short leugths o f poor limber when necessary. As the timber leaves the suws it is carried by live rolls to the sorter table, where the cull stuff is sent to the dump und the select stuff sent on its way to the dock. Each saw' hus a pneumatic lift. Kach lift is piped to the opeiator’s station and their operation controlled through the manipulation of a multiple slide valve. This method of operation is the design of K. K. Ellsworth, sup« r mteudent of the plant, who drew the designs for the casting und miinufac (lire of the parts. The installation of the machinery j was effected with a shut down of the plant tor u day and a half only, almost nil the work being done w title the plant was getting out its usual output. The average output o f the plant has been 80,000. This will be increased through the operation o f the automatic trimmer to about 100,000. CCitiîctnr (ßmur COTTAOK GROVE, LANK COUNTY, ORKGON, FRIDA Y, DECEMBER 15, 1922 TOY W ILL BE GIVEN FREE TO ANY COTTAGE GROVE BOY OR GIRL BORN ON CHRISTMAS How many children in the Cot tage Grove country were born on Christmas dayf The Neiitiuel wants to know. A child born on Christmas day probably thinks he is unfortunate in having to celebrate the two great events o f the year upon the same day. He gets only half as many presents as the child born on a day far removed from the great gift- giving day. The fact may be fun for the parents but it is tragedy for the child. The Nentinel proposes to do some thing for tire«« unfortunate little folks. To any child o f the Cottage Grove country, under 12 years of age, who was born on the twenty fifth day o f December, w'ho comes to the office of The Sentinel ac companied by a parent, will be given a 50 cent toy to be selected from the stock of any merchant in Cottage Grove, or the umouut may lie credited upou a purchase o f a larger uiuouut. FRUITS AND VEGETABLES CON TDTUE t o r i p e n i n t h i s s e m i TROPICAL M ID W IN T E R CLIME Fruit and vegetables of the Cot tage Grove country are doing their best to advertise the semi tropicul winter climate o f the Cottage Grove country, which is the »elect section of the famous, fertile, fruitful Wil- lamette. Among those whose efforts iu this direction are worthy of special men Lion are tomatoes uud grapes on the V\ i111:«in Buimbridge city property at Bo I Quincy avenue, now r«*udy for the tuble, and raspberries on tin* W.

COTTAGE GROVE BERRIES TO EE USED TO CURE PATIENTS IN NORTH DAKOTA HOSPITAL STREET ASSESSMENTS ARE DR. PRICE COMING HERE LEVIED BY COUNCIL DECEMBER 18-20 Ordinances Passed at Last Meeting ol Year; New Governing Body to Organize January 2. Renowned Evangelist Will Conduct Meetings and Pray for Sick o f Cottage Grove. Ordinances levying assessments ts on property owners for improvements south Ninth street, Quincy avenue Fifth street and south Lane street w«*re passed at the meeting o f the city coun cil Monday night. The council nd journed for the year, unless a special meeting should be necessary, and will not meet again until January 2, which will be the first meeting and organ ization of the new council. The ordiuuuee covering Ninth street improvements takes in property from Grover avenue north to the city 'limits, assessments on which total $2109.51. South Fifth street improvements, ex tending from Main to Quincy, total $16,603.69. South Fifth and south Lane improvements, extending from Quincy to tin* south city limits, total $3320.24, uud Quincy avenue improvements, ex tending from the east line of Tenth street east to the city limits, total $1055.20. Application may be mad«* to the council to pay the assessments in installments. The building ordinance, submitted to all cities of the state by the state lire warden’s office uud under consid eration by the council, passed its sec oud reading Monday night. The pro posed ordinance provides for a change in the fire limits iu the city and will be the first business to be taken up by tin* new council January 2. l)r. C. S. Price, famed evangelist, will hold services iu the Methodist church here December i8, 19 and 20, at which meetings prayers will be o f fered for the sick. Dr. Price comes here from a protracted meeting at A1 bany uud shorter meetings in Corvallis and Eugene. Many local people have been among th«* thousands who have attended the meetings at these places. Several claim freedom from serious ill ness as a result o f such attendance. Among these ure Myron McGee, who is reported as almost cured o f a cancer o f the face, which was iu a malignant condition, and Mrs. T. F. Secrist, who is reported as recovering from a serious case of blood poisoning of one foot. She is reported as again able to walk, after not being able to do so for a long time. Although the cures said to result from the meetings are the cause of a large part of the interest in them, Dr. P rice’s power as an evangelist is said to be marvelous. It is understood that it is his claim that no illness of the body can be cured until the soul has been healed and that benefit to the body is not likely to conliuuc if the soul does not remain healed. A special prayer meeting was held last night in the Methodist church by people of this city who are interested in the upproaching meetings.

FINDING OF GOLDEN NUOGET8 CACHED BY GROVE BIDDIES CAUSES PLANS TO OO AW RY Residents of Portland have beeu mystified by the finding o f gold nuggets in the gizzards o f chickens shipped from Cottage Grove. This kind o f an occurrence is not an un usual one iu Cottage Grove, but an explanation is due the people o f Portland, and eveu many iu Cottage Grove may wish the ‘ ‘ iuside” facts. Borne mouths ago at a poultry sonveutiou held here, to which only “ la y ” members of the fraternity were invited, preparations were made by the biddies to further add to the fume of the Cottage Grove country as the Petaluma of Oregon by outdoing the efforts of the fa mous goose which brought fume to the Petaluma of her day by pro ducing golden eggs. The piuus “ laid,” or * 4hatched ,)f by the bid dies in convention assembled, have beeu kept secret, but for months they have beeu surreptitiously gath ering the material from which the eggs aro to be fashioned. The plan was that upou a given dule all hens iu on the secret should start the production of the golden ovals. The efforts o f the biddies have beeu somewhat interfered with by reason o f the fact that owners, not being iu uu the plans and not know ing that failure to produce the usu al quantity of the standardized ‘ ‘ lieu fr u it” was because o f piuus to produce a more valuable article, have cull«*d the loafers uud sent them to market. Martyrs to their secret, such biddies huve not pro tested and uot un*il tragedies have come into their lives, and the ma terial fur their proposed 18 karat production has come to light, have they done anything to let their well- kept secret become public. This is the first time that the secret hus beeu emblazoned to the world. It is reported thut there hus been a tremendous jump iu the price o f Cottage Grove chickens on the Port land market uud that no one longer complains that the retailers are making too greut a profit.
