Michel, - Prineville Oregon Big Crowd at the Basket Ball Games The first "brisket ball game of the mason which were ployed last night lit the club hall was attended by a lars and enthusiastic audience. Athalt past seven the girls were called onto the floor and the way they played for a few minutes made the boys feel that they would have to work some to hare any part of the public's favor. At the end of the first half the score was nothing to nothing, but in the second half the ' Alphas succeeded in making two bas kets. The game ended In a score of four to nothing In favor of the Alphas. The Alphas had the advantage In ' weight aud experienced players, but the Ochoconians played them hard. The officials were: Evans, umpire; Foster, referee; Asltby, time keeper. Following the girls game was a gaine between the boys. The two teams were very evenly matched, the Alphas having a slight advantage in weight. The lirst halt ended disas trously for the Ochoconians. The score was eight to two In favor of the Alphas. The second half took a different , turn. The Ochoconians made basket after basket nntfl time was called. The Bcore stood ten to ten and the game had to continue until one team or the other made two points. After a few minutes of hard playing the Alphas were suc cessful and won by a score of twelve to ten.

(.Continued from pagel.) being very satisfactory. The cheaiidt at Washington Bta. ted that the sample had a good commerc'al value and if it were possible to grow them in sufficient quantities there was no reason why the industry could not be success fully established here. Taking the -figures given above one can readily see that the toil in this experiment produced one pound of sugar beet for every two hundred and forty square inches. By using a little arithmetic we arrive at the conclusion that th soil in this case produced a little more than thirteen and one half tons per acre. ' In sugar beet countries the ( rice ranges from t4.50 to $6.50 per ton. This would allow a gross in come of something like 160 per acre. The expense per acre for growing sugar beets in this country can only be determined by a large number of experiments and it is with a view toward enlisting the interest of practical men that this article is wr itten. .It seems to the writer that this subject ought to be more widely discussed. It ought to be possible to gain the attention of a number of men in each ol the several dis tricts of the county who would take an active inter st in this matter. II. A. Scoggix. A bill has been introduced by Repre sentative Ellis authorizing the build ing of a bridge across the Celilo canal and Columbia river by the Oregon Trunk railroad to connect its Des chutes railroad with the North Bank road. The Oregon Trunk Is to have a bridge, after the same plan as that of the Northern Pacific across the Columbia at Vancouver, constructed across the Columbia at the mouth of the Deschutes. The bill authorizing the construc tion of the bridge wa Introduced be fore congress by Congressman Ellis. Plans for the bridge call for a mod ern steel structure td cost approxi mately ?2,500,000. ' The work of con struction Is to be commenced as soon as the consent of congress is gained. The bridge is to connect the North M" Oil Heat Without Smoke No matter how sensitive your olfactory nerves may be, or under what working conditions you en counter the PERFECTION Oil Heater (Equipped with Smokeless Device) you'll not detect the slightest odor of smoke.

' First he met one old chum, then another, and It never dawn ed uihju blm that Is was a conspiracy. The first night that John II. renched home after he had made that promise to his wife It was very late, or, rather, It was very early. In fact. It was early morning. He took oft his boots, man aged to hang his hat up nnd walked softly Into the room where his wife slumbered. So far all was good. He divested himself of his coat, nnd Just as ho was hanging It on the gas bracket his wife woke up. "Why,., John," she exclaimed, "what on earth are you getting up so early for?" This was a poser, but John was equal to the occasion. "That's all right," he said. " "You know I've reformed, Mary, an' there's lots of people I've got to see early In the mornln . And he deliberately put on bis eoat and boots, found his hat and went ont again, while Mrs. II. turned over, with a fiendish chuckle, and went to sleep. In the olden times a woman In the north of Scotland went to visit her husband, who was condemned to be hanged on the following day. The doomed man began to give his In structions to his wife preparatory to bidding her farewell, when all nt once she broke In upon the conversation and exclaimed, "By the bye, John, whnur will I plant the tattles this year?" The unfortunate man, ns may be Imagined, grew exceedingly Indig nant at the indifference of his wife and exclaimed angrily: "What need I care whaur ye plant them? I'm not likely to need ony o' them." "Hech." replied the woman, turning , to the warden, with a wag of the head, "oor John's huffed because he's gaun to be hanged the morn!" and marched out of the cell.
