the action brought by Silas Moody
to enjoin the state highway commis
sion from constructing a public
highway across land connecting up
the Columbia river highway lu east
ern Oregon with the new state bridge
recently completed over the Des
chutes river.
Judge Fred Wilson, who presided
at the hearing, held that all the
rights of way property extending
from The Dalles to the new bridge
was under control of the state high
way commission and there was no
provision of law whtch would war
rant the granting of a permanent in
junction against the contraction of
the nmd.

to Mr. Moody, who for several year
has conducted a toll bridge on the

Successful Prune
SALEMk Or. Sept. 27. Discovery
of a hybrid prune, the "New Oregon''
which) experts deojare will revolu
tionize prune growing In the entire
northwest, wa announced at a ban
quet of prominent Oregon nursery
men hero Thursday.
The prune was first discovered
about eight years ago In an orchard
owned by Andrew Vercler In Polk
county. Following a series of car
ful experiments with a few speci
mens produced during a period 01
several years. Mr. Vercler top graft
ed an entire row across another Polk
county orchard, and also a portion
of an orchard which he owned near
Hayesvlllo. The top grafting came
Into full bearing last year and the
pnine It I stated, has been commer
cially tested In every way.
The "New Oregon." authorities
state, has been tested as a texture,
sugar, acidity, content drying pn
cllvitles and carrying quality of the
tree, and In each case has been founn
far superior to anything previously
grown In the northwest.
In appearance the new typo of fruit
would seem to be a cross between
the Oregon "Italian" prune, and tho
Oregon "French" prune. It Is larger
than cither, however, and more
tasteful.
