To-morrow night a delegation from the Salem Hoard of Trade will be in Slayton, and a meeting will be held at the City llall, commencing at 7:110, (or the purpose of discussing the build ing of an Elect:ic road from this place to Salem. The delegates from the Salem Hoard arc W. Y. Richardson, E. Hofer, J. Frank Hughes and Aug. Hnekestein. We do not know what plan, if any, the Salem |>oop!e have, but it is hoped that there will he a laigo turn out of business men and citizens, whether members of the Club or not. The Silvertonian-Appeal a short time ago stated that Silverton would have an electric line before Stayton, ami from what we learned in Portland yesterday this seems very probable, unless Stayton gets busy. Let us have e good turn-out of men willing to do something for their town. SPRAYING TREES. There will be a great many butler i trees in thu country after this with a corresponding increase in better fruit and less of thu worthless, scrawny kind, because of the new enterprise of i the Gideon Stol« Company in manu facturing Dependable Brand of lime - g and sulphur spray. The demand for this splendid spray has been enormous, J one reason being that people knew it J was dependable, being made from a ^ formula supplied from the Experiment Station of the Oregon Agricultural | College. There is still a great demand for the spray, and many orchards have j ^ not as yet been touched, aud the own- I era of such orchards should call at the store and examine this spray and get prices. It is for sale by Brewer ! Drug Co. *4^ •tfAtAtAtAtAtAto C I I A N t l K IN H l ' S I N K H S . The W. F. Klecker Store is the Creator of the “One Price Way.” There are many things about this young store that will vitally interest you. Some people told us we couldri't make a success of this store by having a “guaranteed one price" on good clothing. They ar- gued that the sliding scale price plan had been in oper- ation in this city for so long a time that the people could not get accustomed to any other method. But these people underrated the intelligence of the public. That the public appreciates the advantage of buying “the one price way“ when that price is the lowest in town, is shown by the manner in which the store is growing. We also carry a full line of ladies dress goods, shoes, notions, and will gladly make your acquaintance in the one price plan.
