Rose Farm, the old home of tbe
Holmes place, one of the historical
homes of Oregon, has been sold. The
deal was closed a few days ago, when
A. J. Roman, a well known res
ident of Mount Pleasant, purchased
the property. Tb eold home has about
13 rooms, with bath and sleeping
porch. There are nine and two-thirds
acres of land In the tract surround
lng tho houHo. The grounds sur
rounding tbe home have been noted
for tbelr beauty until last fall when
the large locust trees were cut
down to be ued In the shlpbuldllng
plants in Portland, when pins for the
ships were needed. Since these trees
have bn destroyed, it has taken
away much of tbe beauty of the old
historical home, but It Is the etnten
tlon of the new owner to make many
Improvements, and other trees will
be planted In the place of those de-
troyed. W. L. Snldow and wife of
Gladstone are to occupy the proper

has been disposed of, but there still
remains a piano, one of the first in
