The week beginning February 14 to
19 has been designated as prune week
and it will be generally observed
throughout the state. Prunes are a
staple Oregon crop and no better ar­
ticle of fruit is grown anywhere than
the Oregon product. Export condi­
tions are unsatisfactory this season
and growers are left with large stocks
»Id, facing because of this fact a
unsold,
large loss. Every effort is being
made to remedy the situation and it
ia known that if local people would
grown
utilize this healthful home _
product in the dishes that grace the
table in Oregon homes both the pro­
ducer and grower would be benefitted
thereby.
Prunes are reasonable in
price today and can be used in prac­
tically every dish in which the Cali­
fornia raisin now appears.
The proclamation of Governor Ol­
cott which follows, sets out the situ­
ation clearly:
“To the People of the State of Ore­
gon:
•The prune industry is one of the
greatest horticultural industries with­
in the state of Oregon Nearly forty
thousand acres of our finest agricul­
tural lands are planted with prune
trees.
Last year, despite adverse
weather conditions, thirty million
pounds of prunes were harvested in
the state. Of this number but eight
million have been sold. The twenty-
two million pounds unsold represent
an enormous asset to the State of
Oregon if they can be moved and
placed in the hands of consumers. The
fact that they are lying idle jeopar­
dizes this enormous industry.
The
people of the state of Oregon should
give widest co-operation to the prune
growers to mwt the grave situation.
"I hereby designate the week from
February 14 to February 19th, inclu­
sive, as Prune Week within this state.
I call upon the good spirit of our
people to join in a movement to as­
sist this groat industry, not only for
the good of the industry itself, but
for the ,’ood of the people of the state
as a whole. I urge that every home
n Oregon take advantage of the op­
portunity which is presented by the
pripe grower« to become well stocked
with this nourishing and healthy
fruit. I ask co-operation from hotels,
grocers, restaurants, or from any
other source which may give assist­
ance, and I also bespeak the hearty
co-operation of the press, which is al­
ways freely given in the furtherance
of everv proper and beneficial move­
ment. This is a serious situation, in­
volving the welfare of thousands of
our best ci’izens. Prompt and hearty
response from the people of Oregon
will relieve the situation and bring
nbout a quick betterment of condi­
tions. I am certain the appeal of the
prune growers will not be in vain.
"Very sincerely vours.
“REN W. OLCOTT.”

Roll In for
$5 Weekly Prize
Clarence O’Neil Gets the Money for
Second Time, With a Total of
46,650 Votes
Again the votes rolled in upon the
Herald manager in the struggle for
the $5.00 weekly prize in the trade­
at-home contest. Clarence O’Neil had
the largest number and for the sec­
ond time captured the money with a
grand total of 46,650. Of this num­
ber about 15,000 were the result of
subscriptions to the Herald he se­
cured and the remainder in single
ballots. Clarence has a lot of friends
in th:» community and they are rally­
ing to his support right loyally.
Mrs. B S. Jones of 5<t havenue
was second with 29,500, all in single
coupons, as was true last week, when
she finished in the same relative po­
sition.
Margaret I eitch, the little girl who
has the school children, among oth­
er», lined up in her support, did not
enter, but contented herself with
sending In a correct answer, which
netted her 500 votes. No doubt Mar­
garet will be out trying for the mo­
ney next week, and as she baa some
mighty good campaign managers the
other contestants had best beware.
To date no contestant has succeed­
ed in winning without securing s-ma
subscriptions for the paper. This fact
is purely and sin.plv a coincidence, al­
though there is no doubt but that the
thousand votes given with each such
subscription is a mighty big help.
A suggestion—some Arleta woman
who would take the trouble to go out
among her neighbors and friends and
get their subscriptions would make a
lot of pin money and get a running
start toward the big prizes to be «riv­
en at the conclusion of the contest,
which has practically only started.
One good week's work along the line
spoken of would pay a good sum for
the effort.
FATHER O’FLYNN IS

SPEAKER ON IRELAND
IN MT. SCOTT DISTRICT
The following is taken from the
Catholic Sentinel of February 3:
“The largest crowd that ever lis­
tened to a Catholic priest in Salem
faced Father O’Flynn st the armory
here Sunday afternoon, when he re­
hearsed the sUfry of the wrongs of
Ireland at the hands of a tyrranical
government and showed in a convinc­
ing manner that religious differences
are not the cause of the country’s
trouble*. He showed also by the tes­
timony of Protestant writers and of
English writers that even the trou­
bles brought on by the Orangemen
of North East Ulster are largely ar­
tificial— that they are instigated by
British governing influences and fo­
mented by agitators sent over from
Englund for that purpose, in order
that British statesmen may have an
excuse for the use of repressive meas­
ures and armed forces ’to keep peace
in Ireland*. Father O’Flynn’s address
was a strong indictment
of British

Following his address, I
Monsignor Arthur Lane was intro­
duced as the grandson of Oregon’s
first governor and son of one of its
early congressmen, and he delivered
a brief but eloquent talk which was
greatly enjoyed.”

That property is changing hands in
the Mt Scott district is evidenced by
the number of sales reported to the
Herald by realty dealers of the vicin­

all such transfers; the following were

other business transactions:
