DURING the several years spent in the mercantile business in Oregon City, the patrons of our store have not found in the stock offered them, anything in the way of Auction
Remnants, old stock Goods, so called Mill Ends, or any such questionable Merchandise, offered at supposed bargains. The people have come to know that they can purchase better
goods at even better prices than can be obtained at the very largest department stores in large cities. They can see the added expense that must come right out of their own pock
ets, in the way of traveling expenses, and that, though they may be offered a "Bait" occasionally, they are paying dearly in the long run for their supposed bargains, and are very
glad to take the opportunity offered by the large store right here at home, and in this manner we can see that the continued efforts on our cart to give them the verv W for th?
least money is duly appreciated. In this we grasp every opportunity to improve our ever increasing stock and at the same time to have, each week, SPECIALS that we can give the people of Oregon City
the benefit of. We are now making another great offer to the public in the way of Market Day Specials and we invite all our many patrons to make this their headquarters.

Strawberry Growers to Exhibit Rose
and Carnation Society.
The Clackamas County Rose and
Carnation Society held a meeting In
the county court room of the court
bouse on Saturday afternoon, but the
date of the rose show was not set,
owing to the weather and condition
of the roses, as the latter are not far
enough advanced to set the exact date.
A meeting will be held at the home
of Mrs. G. A. Harding Thursday ev
ening when the date for same will be
set. With a few days of sunshine
the roses will be plentiful.
At the Saturday afternoon meeting
R. S. Coe, of Canby, was present, and
talked in the Interest of the Society,
and Bald that the strawberry growers
of Canby had held a meeting that
week and had decided to exhibit their
strawberries at the coming rose shoft,
and that on the last day the berries
would be turned over to the Bociety
to be sold. The Canby strawberries
are always of excellent flavor. It Is
presumed that growers of other parts
of the countv will also unite with the
growers of Canby and also exhibit ber
ries. There were many fine berries on
exhibition at the rose show of last
year, and carried off several of the
best premiums.
The date set for the Clackamas
County rose show will probably be
set for the second week in June after
the Portland Rose fete, as many from
this city are planning, to visit that
city at that time.
Many members are being taken Into
the organization of this city, as mem
bers are not charged to make entries,
but those who are not members and
who wish to make entries must pay
the entry fee of 25 cents. The mem
bership fee of the society Is only the
nominal sum of 25 cents.
There are many more premiums of
fered to the exhibitors this year than
last year, and the merchants and busi
ness men of Oregon City are taking
an active Interest, and have donated
handsome prizes, many of which are
on exhibition la the Harding drug
store window, and before the rose
show is given all will be on exhibi
tion, where the public can view them.
The hall where the rose show la to
take place will be elaborately decor
ated with evergreens making a back
ground for the floral exhibits.
A musical and literary program is
being planned by the entertainment
committee, which will be given on
the opening night.
The premlpm list Is In the hands of
the printers, and will be published in
the next week's Issue of the county
papers.
The Cauby Strawberry Growers As
sociation hold a very interesting meet
ing at the Riverside school house near
Canby last Thursday afternoon. The
selling price for the season was fixed
by the growers, as well as the prices
for picking.
The matter of exhibiting berries at
the rose show In Oregon City, was
brought up for discussion, and it was
decided by the members to exhibit,
and at the close of the affair to donate
the berries to the rose society, and
which will be on sale the last night
of the show. Five premiums will be
given to the berry growers for the
beBt crates of berries.
