The farmers of Clackamas county
who are fortunate enough to have
planted potatoes last spring are reap
ing the reward of their foresighted
ness during the present rule of high
prices.
There is money in potatoes at 50
cents a sack, for it has been estimat
ed that It costs the farmer about 40
cents a sack to plant and raise them
for the market. Owing to the scarci
ty of the tubers, they are now bring
ing from $1.50 to $2.00 a sack, and are
hard to get at this price. These prices
mean a profit to the. farmer of at
least $50 to the acre, for an acre of
the land in Clackamas county will
produce from fifty to one hundred
sacks, or from ninety to one hundred
and eighty bushels. 1
The present scarcity that is res
ponsible for the high prices is due
largely to the bad weather that set in
Just when it was time to dig potatoes.
There was a heavy frost that caught
them as soon as they were exposed,
and much wet weather, which caused
a large part of the crop to rot in the
ground. In previous years when the
local crop has failed potatoes have
been shipped in from Greeley, Colora
do, and other potato centers, but the
car shortage of the present year has
precluded this, and the margets were
forced to depend on the local output
entirely. This has naturally caused
prices to soar, and has made the farm
ers with potatoes jublliant.
More attention is being paid each
year to this crop, for farmers are
learning that besides being a good
crop to raise for the market, it is
good for the land, and acts as a clean
ser of the soil. A field which has
been planted to potatoes Is In as good
shape at the end of the season as
though it had been allowed to lie fal
low during the summer. Some farm
era say that potatoes make the best
summer fallow there is. A crop of po
tatoes, it is Bald, will make the land
yield a much larger return of the next
crop planted, whatever it may be.

Agreeable and Effective, .
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy has
no superior for coughs, colds and
croup, and the fact that it Is pleasant
to take and contains nothing in any

Railroad Loses Two Bits.
An excitable conductor on the south
bound local passing through here
about five o'clock and a woman "who
had lost her ticket coming to Oregon
City from Portland caused excitement
for a few minutes at the Southern
Pacific station Friday- night. The
fact that there was no deputy dis
trict attorney in town, owing to the
former Incumbent's resignation tak
ing effect Friday and the appointment
of Gilbert Hedges not having been
confirmed, made it impossible for
the conductor to swear to a complaint,
and as the woman positively refused
to pay again for the ticket she claimed
to have bought, he decided the best
plan was to run the risk of the South
ern Pacific s losing two bits and gave
the go-ahead signal. ,,
The same night a man who had
been imbibing too freely of the local
trouble water tried to board the over
land to go to Albany, but his condi
tion made it imperative that he re
main a little longer In Oregon City,
and he was put into the city jail to
quiet down.
Farewell for the Duncans.
A farewell party was tendered Mr.

the consolation, and afterwards a
guessing contest was carried on in
which Miss Vivian McKinney captur
ed a prize and the consolation went
to Joseph Painter. Refreshments
were served at the close of the even-'
ing. Those present were Mr. and Mrs.
Joseph Painter, Mr. and Mrs. John
Carothers, Mr. and Mrs. Fred Painter,
Mr. and Mrs. Frank Duncan, L. Fies
ter, Mrs. T. Finnegan and Miss Vivian
McKinney.
Mr. and Mrs. Duncan will shortly
leave for Newburg, where they will
make their home in the future.
Do Not Crowd the Season.
The first warm days of spring bring
with them a desire to get out and en
joy the exhiliratlng air and sunshine.
Children that have been housed up all
winter are brought out and you won
der where they all come from. The
heavy winter clothing is thrown aside
and many shed their flannels. Then a
cold wave comes and people say that
grip is epidemic. Colds, at this sea
son are even more dangerous than in
mid-winter, as there Is much more
danger of pneumonia. Take Chamb
erlain's Cough Remedy, however, and
you will have nothing to fear. It al
ways cures, and we have never known 1
a cold to result In pneumonia when it
was used. It is plesant and safe to j
take. Children like It. For sale, by j
