The County Court will send out
notices In a day or two to supervisors
ami owiers of lands where Canadian
thistles are growing. If owners fall
to destroy the thistles, supervisors
must do so and are allowed $3.00 a
day for such work, all of the expense
of which becomes a lien on the land.
Owners permitting Canadian thistles
on their land are guilty of a misde
meanor and jiable to heavy fines, as
Is, also, supervisors who neglect their
duties In regard to the pest.
Lands along Ilutte creek are Infect
ed w ith the pest, as much as ten acres
of thistles being seen by a member of
the court during a drive, Sunday.
On the last day of the session, the
County Court passes an ordf-r author
izing the County Judge to procure
supplies for county officers. This was
done last Thursday. A day or two
before Sheriff Beattle needed supplies
and put in a requisition and the board
ordered them purchased. This Is the
sole basis of the political attack on
the Court and Judge Dimlck In a local
paper.
The County Court has been enjolnad
by the Circuit Court against opening
the Perdue and Struthers road. Lewis
Woodcock Is the petitioner and he
claims the road is unnecessary as one
already exists parallel to it, and his
land would be damaged by construc
tion of this new road.

DESTITUTE TOURISTS
FROM OREGON LlTY
FORLORN PARTY ARRIVES IN AL
BANY CLAIMING TO BE RE
FUGEES FROM FRISCO.
The Albany Daily Herald of Wed
nesday says a party of tourists reach
ed that city Tuesday who first claim
ed to be San Francisco refugees, but
later it wa3 learned they were from
Oregon City. The Herald account
reads:
The party consists of a Mrs. Far
rington, Mr. and Mrs. Turpin and Mrs..
Griffin and four children belonging to
the two last named women, who in
turn are the daughters of Mrs. Far
rington. They were practically desti
tute, and as soon as they arrived her
sought help from the county court.
They told a pitiful tale of being earth
quake refugees and that they were in
search of some place where they could
secure work. Oa being closely ques
tioned the women acknowledged that
they were not in San Francisco when
the earthquake and fire occurred.
It finally developed that they were
residents of Oregon City, had started
out from that place, and they are now
on their way back there, securing aid
from the people as they go along.
Judge Stewart and some of the people
of the city provided the party with
food, and tickets will probably be
given them to Oregon City in order to
get them away from here and to tbelr
home where, if they must be support
ed by charity, the people among whom
they have lived will care for them.
Their principal stock In trade seems
to be the presence with them of a cou
ple of Invalid children, one a cripple,
and these they are ready to show, at
the same time appealing for help. The
party was given quarters In the little
cottage on Lyon street, where they
were camped last evening.
New Varieties of Potatoes.
Many varieties df potatoes come
and go, and, but for the Introduction
of new varieties, potatoes would soon
be scarce. This is due to the careless
selection of seed. All the tubers of
a crop are sold for seed, when only
the best should be selected. If only
the largest tubers from the thrirtlest
and strongest plants were retained
for seed, there would be an improvement-in
the old varieties instead of
deterioration in quality. But as long
as seed potatoes bring good prices,
there will be both good and inferior
seed sold.

I Next Saturday will occur the an

! dents of all that garden spot, the Mo
J lalla country, will gather to celebrate
1 the big harvest, enjoy a basket dinner
; and hear good speeches. County
Judge Grant B. Dimlck will make an
address.
! Several business men of Oregon City
will go out to enjoy a holiday. Rep
resentatives from the Board of Trade
may be present to learn the sentiment
of the people out there about the pro
posed electric road from this city to
Molalla.
j There is no doubt about the benefits
1 to a section of country where an elec
! trie road penetrates, especially a sec
j tlon that has been without railway
j facilities. Land values Increase at
; once, and crops are worth more be-
cause it costs less to get them to
market.

three minor children, he being re

Truths About Artificial Teeth
- ' v " :
The great majority of dentists represent to their
patients that a rubber plate with fourteen teeth
set in a half circle is just as good as anything
else for a set of artificial teeth.
Some make such representations knowing them '
to be false, others because they know no better.
The responsibility for this condition rests with
the dental profession,
A great many people would not accept a rubber
or celluloid plate if they only understood the H
super iortty of a metal plate in cleanliness, health- "
fulness and durability.
We would like to talk to with you about metal
plates for artificial teeth.
