CANBY AND SOUTHERN CLACKAMAS
Rainy Period Best
for Canby Farmers
CANBY, Feb. 16. Although the
people of this section hare experienc
ed one of the rainiest seasons, they
fttill have in mind of the terrible
weather experienced last winter when
hundreds of fruit tres were filled
and have been uprooted. Many farm
res, who had spenj years in fruit
growing, are now digging up what re
mains of the trees destroyed by the
cold winter of 1919-20 and are satis
fied with the present weather. Among
the fruit growers affected are Robert
Coe, whose tres that have been killed,
are being dug up to make room for
other fruit. Mr. Coe was one of the
most extensive fruitgrowers in Canby,
and now says the rain is good enough
for him.
The fall snown grain has? been ben
efitted by the heavy rains, and all
through this section the fields are
green with growing wheat and oats.

unsuccessful in finding any trace of
his. "Duke" disappeared from tha
Estes home Sunday, February 6th, and
the last seen of him was near the fir
grove on the Estes place. Mr. and Mrs.
Estes have visited Portland, Oregon
City, Milwaukie and Molalla, where
there clues leading from their adver
tisements, messages have come from
all those sections, claiming to have
the dog, but when investigation was
made, proved to be the wrong animal.
Mr. and Mrs. Estes are offering a
reward of $15 for the return of their
pet, and no questions asked. Word
came to the Estes home that the
wild' dog ajt SeVlwood, (might) be
"Duke", so Mr. and Mrs.' Estes has
tened to the scene where the dog had
his haunts, and although they were
unable to find the dog after their ai-
rival, the description of the animal
failed to tally with that of the Estes
doy. Sheriff Wilson has also been t
making every effort to locate the dog.

A report is current here that the
mysterious disapperance of Edna
Zwiker haa not been caused by the
girl being abducted, but that she dis
appeared on her own accord and just
before leaving Oregon City, she ask
ed a girl friend to accompany her,
and the friend refused. It is said she
was seen near Ridgefield, Wash., last
Wednesday morning by a rancher of
that place. l

advised of the information and a

Why Not Half Cents?
Agitation continues for a Roosevelt two-cent piece.
HereVanother idea for a new coin.
Why ji ot a half-cent piece?
Mother goes to the grocery to make her daily pur -chases.
Eggs 66 cents, butter 63 cents, grape fruit
1 2, cents, oranges 55 cents a dozen, but if she wants a
half-dozen only they are 27. cents. Mother pays the
extra half-cent.
Dad stops to buy gasoline for the flivver. He learns
it is 3 1 cents a gallon. . Does Dad get the extra ' half
"cent? Not so. The gas station man gets it.
And so on at the dra goods shop and the drug store
The storekeeper gets the naif-cent.
One day,, just for fun, one man kept track of the
half-cents he paid out in that way, and it totaled 1 0
whole copper cents. And then he started figuring, why,
in two days that would be 20 cents, in three days 30,
and so on. By the time he got through figuring he had
a nice-sized bank account, had patronized all the movies
he wanted to, and every time his little boy asked for an
ice cream cone, he had said, "Sure, sonny, I saved 10
cents today."
You can make two cents up from two one cent
pieces, but you can't cut a one cent piece in half. So why
not a Roosevelt half-cent piece? Or a Ben Franklin
half-cent piece, since he was the father of thrift?
Now that a lot of men have been given some in
ducement to let it alone, they are contrary enough to
pay $ 1 6 a quart.
It usually happens that the man who "goes up ih

Relief Council's warehouse at Linz,
Austria, received in San Francisco
today, shows a distribution of 8,500
tons of foodstuffs which have reliev
ed the suffering of 120,000 undernour
ished children in the northern section
o fthe country during the past year.
In addition clothing to a value of
$443,934.55 has been given the desti
tute children from the several relief
stations deriving their supplies from
the warehouse. The dis,tributIon of
this wearing apparel was as necessary
to the welfare of the little war vic
tims as the food itself, for all of
them are so' utterly destitute they
had insiufficent clothing to enable
them to go to the feeding station in
winter weather for their one hot
meal a day.
The operation of the warehouse at
Linz is typical of that of 27 others
maintained at Central points in all
the countries of Europe where the ef
fects of the world war have been so
demoralizing that the continuance of
child life has been dependent upon
American aid. The conidtion is ex
pected to greatly relieve in most ot
the stricken countries by the next
harvest. Until that time, however,
it is essential that American agen
cies continue their relief if they
