Our special visitor, Jack Frost, the
?8th of April, made things that were
green look pretty frosty In the morn
ing here. The clover leaves were all
killed down by frost, even burdock
leaves were stiff with frost. We are
not particularly interested in burdock,
as we can get along without it, don't
you think so, Uncle Ed? We think
old Oregonians ought to get bitten a
little bit any way.
About 40 years ago in the great
state of Illinois, on the 3d or 4th day
of June we had a frost that killed rye
and corn.
Your scribe had his corn plowed
over the second time and it looked
splendid, but Jack Frost killed it to.
stay killed.
We braced up and planted it over
the 20th day of June. We had a splen
did crop of fodder and half a crop of
merchantable corn and lots of frost
bitten corn, hence we had the earlier
. frost and the latter frost, but In Ore
gon we generally tave either to kill
or stay killed. Yesterday we thought
we would finish our last year crop by
digging the spuds. We dug part of
them and we found two crops on part
of the vines, and last week we had
new potatoes for breakfast. We have
potato tops a few hills about 10 inch
es high in a protected place that the
frost did not bite last week and corn
up 3 inches high. The frost did not
bite the corn.
The Mumpower and Llllle saw mill
is a wonderful mill since It has com
menced operations. As fast as they
saw through the log, the saw whizzes
back again, ready to commence again.
We ought to have a "store here at
Stone. We are expecting one, but- it
has not come.
Elder G. P. Rich preached at the
church on last Lord's day, the 6th.
His discourse was on "The Union of
Christians." There was a large and
attentive audience. After dinner the
people met below Clear Creek bridge
to witness the baptism of two uersons
in Clear Creek. See Romans, sixth
chapter.
Evangelist Sewall closed the pro
tracted meeting on the third Lord's
day, the 19th, with a full house, and
fine attention. Brother Sewall has
gone to Eastern Washington for his
health. He took cold and it settled on
his lungs. There were eight addi
tions to the church. We are disap
pointed very much in having to part
with Brother Sewall.
Smyrna.
(Too late for last week.)
Mrs. L. B. and Mrs. A. L. Yoder
were visiting, relatives In Parkplace
and Portland several days the past
week.
Erie Sether and L. D. Yoder are
hauling their potatoes to market
Mr. and Mrs. Joe Schwartz, of Lo
gan, are at their ranch here for a few
days cleaning up their orchard and
sowing land plaster on their clover.
We have read Mr. Robinson's article
on appropriating $125,000 annually for
the maintenance of the University of
Oregon in last week's Courier. But it
is our opinion that he Is mistaken,
when he says It is a school for "poor
and rich alike." The writer is per
sonally acquainted with twenty young
people, who, after finishing the public
school course attended the different
independent colleges of the valley,
working their way through as best
they could. Every one of them Is es
teemed in his or her vocation and an
honor to the community in which they
reside. Not one of these was wanted
at the university because they were
financially unable to keep up with tne
high toned "frats," and athletic socie
ties In vogue there. As to the pro
fessors being short on their salaries,
there are a good many farmers, hop
and mill men in the same condition,
yet the legislature has made no pro
vision for them. Should these be
made to go down into their meagre
cash in order that the university may
pay $2000 per school year for a pro
fessor teaching an average of eleven
students? Or, "dig up" so that the
foot ball team can afford to pay $750
per month for a coach? In our esti
mation the university is a school for
the children of the wealthy, who are
well able to pay for the "trimmings"
that go with an education there. We
shall "have to be sliown," or we shall
surely vote "No" on "that amendment.
Canby.
R. S. Coe, president of Canby De
velopment League, vice-president of
Clackamas County Fair Association,
the man that is credited with getting
the County Fair located at Canby, has
certainnly worked harder and been
more persistent, to make the fair an
assured success, who asked the city
council of Canby to subscribe for 50
shares of the stock of the Fair Asso
ciation, has solicited and has sub
scribed six hundred of the $1000 that
the citizens of Canby agreed to raise
for the fair association; the man that
was accused of holding up the stock
holders meeting when they wanted to
postpone or adjourn the meeting for
another week the man that was turn
ed down at the primaries for county
commissioner; the man that will dic
tate to the Republican party two years
hence; the man that will, with a little
help from the people of Canby, have
the county seat moved to Canby.
A. J. Lewis, the county fruit inspec
tor, was looking around Canby and vi
cinity last week, and took dinner with
R. S. Coe and wife, the horUculturist
of Canby.
There are several new houses going
up in Canby and vicinity. Let the
good work go on. Canby will be the
county seat after a while.
The people of Canby are very much
elated that they are going to get the
county fair at Canby. Don't forget to
sign for some stock.
R. S. Coe has finally commenced to
graft his apple trees that he prepared
for grafting before he got into poll
tics. All's well, that ends well.
Mrs. Ray and son, Stanley, of Har
risburg, Pa., are visiting Mrs Ray's
parents, Mr. and Mrs. J. S. Dick, of
Canby. They expect to remain during
the summer.

The other morning Henry Comer

good and an interesting program.
Born, to Mr. and Mrs. Ralph Tracy,

The Springwater Dramatic club
gave the play "A Faca At the Window"
last Friday evening In the grange hall
at Logan.
We have been having some fine
showers and everything Is growing
nicely and strawberries 'are getting
ripe, so we will have fresh berries
from now to November. Before the
strawberries are gone we will have
goose berries and currants, then rasp
berries, black berries, and then the
second crop of strawberries and ever
greens. What country ct2 beat that?
It has cleared off and the sun is
shining brightly.
