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 !

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.
