Talk about insults: Oregon City's fire chief said the city ought to have motor-equipped fire engines, . and then somebody went and sent the council catalogues describing motor cycle fire engines that ran on three wheels. What do they think the coun ty seat is, anyway? Did you know that the Courier is $1.00 per year if paid in advance? WHY NOT TRY THIS Livestock Shipping Plan Adopted in Yamhill County Seems Success , A number of Oregon farmers are going to try the plan of doing their own livestock shipping. A eoopera tive livestock association has been or ganized by a representative group of tarmers in the vicinity of Dayton, Yamhill county. The organization has the usual officers with the cus tomary duties prescribed,' and its ac tivities are directed by a Board of Di rectors. The methods of operation are explained by R. E. Reynolds, Ag ricultural College livestock extension specialist, as follows: The business of shipping and sell ing is conducted through a manager wno serves for a commission. When any member of the association has a bunch of livestock about ready for shipment he notifies the manager by pnotie or otherwise. He tells the manager of the kind, number and gen eral quality jof his shipment, and the approximate time at which it will be ready for shipping. This information is recorded by the manager and when enough stock has been listed for ship ment he notifies each grower when to bring his stock m. , When the stock arrives it the ship ping point it Is marked for identifi cation, and proper records are made. The stock is then taken to Portland or other markets by the manager, where each lot is sold on its own in dividual merits and the proceeds cred ited to the owner, After deducting the expense of shipment and sales by adjusting the charges pro rata among the members, the net proceeds be longing to each owner are turned over to him by the sales manager. In this way the growers are able to save the buyers' profits for themselves. They also secure the advantages . derived from sales in large lots, and at the same time receive the price broue-ht by their individual lost. R.. L. Holman and T. P. Randall.

Thinks Bis Ditch Will Soon Refiain Business President William Sproule, of the Southern Pacific, commenting on the resumption of traffic through the Pan ama Canal after the present slide is repaired, says that the setback caus ed by the slide is only temporary and that the temparary setback will not prevent the return of shipments to the waterway. "The public uses," said Sproule, "the various facilities for transporta tion at its disposal. The closing of the canal was a mere, incident. The railroads1 have never believed, and certainly the Southern Pacific does not now believe that the Panama Canal is or will be put out of business by the railways. "The closing of the canal by slides is but a temporary setback of the kind which may be expected for . a long time to come, just as a railroad through mountain canyons is subject to landslides for a considerable period after construction. " ' ' ' "Then there is added to the em- barassment caused by the closing of the canal the fact that ships can now derive extraordinary profits from the international traffc. There may be an interval when the canal will not be in such active use for coast-to-coast business as it would (be under normal conditions. This, however, is no basis for judgment of the future. "Looking into the future broadlv. the various kinds of traffic will teke the routes of carriage that suit the :ommodity best, every condition con sidered." HOW FAR IS PORTLAND? Not So Far That the Statements of Its Residents Cannot Be Verified Rather an interesting case has been developed in Portland. Being so near by,-it is well worth publishing here. The statement is sincere the proof convincing: George Hearn, grocer, 160 Beech St Portland, Ore., says: "As the result of an attack of typhoid fever, my kid neys were left in a weakened con dition. My back ached and there was tired eeling and weakness across my loins. If I was on my feet much or walked very far, it started the pain and aching. The action of my kidneys was too frequent and the kid ney secretions passed with a scalding sensation. Doan's Kidney Pills promptly removed the aches and pains and corrected the trouble with my kid neys. - Price 50c at all dealers. Don't simply ask for a kidney remedy get Doan's Kidney Pills the same that Mr. Hearn had. Foster-Milburn Co., Props., Buffalo, N. Y. NO COMPLAINT AT ALL Man Arrested in Oregon City Honest, Says Portland Woman Charles Gannon is a wonderful prophet, and some police are too sus picious. Charles was arrested in Ore gon City last Sunday by Chief of Po lice Blanchard, and at that time he told the chief that no complaint would be made against him if he was held for trial.. And Charles prophe sied correctly, for Monday he was turned out in police court in Portland. Gannon had in his possession when he was arrested two supposedly dia mond earrings, and two supposedly diamond rings. The stones in Ihe ear rings were not diamonds, and the stone in one of the rings was not a diamond. The second ring had a small diamond in it, however. And because he had these things, Chief Blanchard thought that maybe Gan non was a crook. Saturday he show ed the earrings to a local jeweler, who saw' that they weren't genuine; and maybe that had something to do with it At any rate, Sunday Gannon went jW, BUCK, Importer and Breeder, Ore to the owner of a certain safety-de- gon City, Rt. 1, Box 101. posit box iu the county seat and said he wanted to place the jewelry there in. Chief of Police Blanchard saw the glittering stones in the man's hand, and investigated. He asked Gannon what his idea was, and the stranger replied that a Mrs. Clara Lngalls, of Woodstock, had given him the earrings to get the . stones re moved and set in rings. The chief had heard that the stones in the ear rings weren't real diamonds, and he further discovered from Gannon that Mrs. lngalls was 81 years of age. What more likely, thought the chief, than that Gannon had removed the good stones and had paste imitations put in their place? He had Heard of such things being done. Further conversation with Gannon elicited the information that he was 42 years of age. He didn't look more than 35 to the chieef. There was also something said about Gannon's pos sible marriage to the 81 year old wo man. -At any rate, Chief Blanchard locked his man up, and notified Port land police. Detective Goltz came up to the county seat and. got Gannon and in Portland he was turned, out, because Mrs. lngalls said she knew he had the jewelry, that she had all sorts of confidence in him, and that she wouldn't make any complaint.. Asked if she was thinking of mar rying Gannon, Mrs. lngalls laughed. "I am 81 years of age," she said, "and I guess I'm too old for foolishness like that." And besides, Gannon was married once and got a divorce. Heavy Damages Asked Mrs. Margaret Martin, -who was struck by an automobile Februarv 19, at the east end of the suspension bridge, has filed suit for $5000 dam ages against E. F. and W, B. Port ouw. Brownell &'Sievers are her at torneys. Mrs. Martin alleees that she has been permanently injured through the carelessness of E. F. Portouw, who was driving the car that struck her.

Portland Railway Light & Power Company IOWA SEED GOOD Oats from Buckeye State Shows High Percentage of Germination Oregon farmers who don't ' like Oregon oats to plant, will do well to import oats from Iowa, for figures just compiled by the Department of Agriculture, after exhaustive tests, show that la wo seed oats have a high record for germination. Tests werfl made of Rel nat.s from Indiana. 'w Iowa and Kansas, and the following results were noted, " The average germination was low est for Indiana and highest for Iowa Of the 2,900 samples tested from the three states 268 or over 9 per cent germinated less than 75 per cent, 122 samples or over four per cent ger minated less than 75 per cent, 122 samples or over four per, cent ger minated less than 50 per cent, and 64 samples or nearly 2 per cent germi nated less than 25 per cent. This shows that much of the seed oats in tended to be used this spring ger minates poorly and that germination tests should be made in all cases be fore sowing. At the same time that the above tests were made 576 samples taken from car lots of commercial oats were tested, the average germination being 78 per cent. This shows that where commrcial oats must be de pended on for a seed supply it is even more important to test the seed for germination than when local supplies are relied on. Seed showing a low germination should either not be sowed or enough extra seed should be used to insure getting a good stand. '.' R. L. Holman and T. P.

Get Thrills as Den of Thieves is Uncovered A dug-out was discovered Satur day on the Fry farm across the river, and Sunday a crowd gathered to watch the proceedings as the covered in portions were shoveled out, some anticipating that a human body might be found beneath. However, only a few stolen tools, rotten bedclothing, an alarm clock, some cooking utensils, etc., were found. The dug-out had evidently been made a couple of years. Saws, a die plate, blacksmith's hammer, etc. found there were stolen from R- F, Betts, the Barlow blacksmith, some 16 months ago. About the same time the King saloon at Barlow was bur glarized and a quantity of liquor and tobacco- stolen, an empty tobacco "caddy" with King's name on it was found in the dug-out, as were several bottles of whiskey Pebbleford brand. Beside the dug-out was a brush "lean-to" where cooking was done. Both dug-out and lean-to were in the Dr. L. G. ICE DENTIST Beaver Building Oregon City Phones Pacific, 1221. Home, A-19. dense brush, and would easily escape notice. They were discovered by the North family who were in search of a lost calf. The finding of a Southern Pacific lantern with a red globe led some to believe that the place was the rendez vous for a gang that intended to hold up a train. As the dug-out was near ly 25 feet long, 4 feet wide, and more j.i - t , ..... lnan B'xle1 aeeP- wen ninoerea, and I covered 3 feet deep with earth, it re- . 1ured a eat dal f labor, and prob- ably was done by two or three men, though it was suggested that all the work may have been done by some one mentally unbalanced. What motives prompted the mak- !? of the du-ut is uncertain, but its use as a depository of stolen goods shows the criminal character of those who used it as a . "hang-out" a sort of a "Robbers' Roost." Geo. Fry who nicely cleaned up all the recovered tools, has turned them over to their owners. What became of the "refreshments" "deponent saith not," unless they went to fortify the diggers against the fatigue of the labor of recovery. (Aurora Observ er.) FISHING BILL BACKED Columbia River Union People Tak Up Measure Started by Local Group The proposed initiative measure for the protection of salmon and the barring of fish wheels, seines, and traps in the Columbia river and Its tributaries, launched by the Clacka mas County Fishermen's union, has been endorsed and taken up by the Co lumbia River Fishermen's Protective union, of Astoria. This action was taken last week, following a visit of President J. F. Albright, of the local union, to Astoria. Mr. Albright is much cheered by the lower river fishermen, as it gives him confidence in the ultimate suc cess of the measure. Mr. Albright had been told that the measure would be harmful to the canneries and packing interests; but as the Astoria fishermen's union maintains one of the largest canneries on the river it self, their edor.sement of the bill proves conclusively that the measure ' would not in any way hurt the pack-1 ing industry. i NEW CHURCH IDEA GROWS Community House of Worship at Estacada Considered at Meeting ' Estacada's hope for a community church, where creeds will not conflict, and where general support will enable the organization to do real work, re ceived a decided boost last week at a Well attended meeting held in the rooms of the Civic Improvement club. So great was the attendance that empty boxes had to be brought in to serve as additional seats. At the close of the meeting a com mittee, consisting of R. M. Standish, A. O. Whitcomb, John Ely, W. W. Dillon, D. S. Flemming, F. B. Guthrie and W. H .Holder, was appointed to perfect plans for the community church and to report at a later date upon such progress had been made.

Representatives of eight churches were among those present, Catholics, Methodists, Baptists, Congregational ists, Presbyterians, Latter Day Saints Christians and Reformed Christians all taking part. The very diversity of the creeds represented was an ar gument for some sort of consolida tion into a workable and effective community church. At the opening of the meeting G. E. Williams, an evangelist, offered prayer, and the dis cussion 'that followed was earnest and gave promise. of early results. Maybe He's a Prohibitionist Prospects of Dr. E. R.
