CANB YAND SOUTHERN CLACKAMAS
STRAWBERRIES SHIPPED
BY GROWERS AT CANBY
CANBY, June 13. Through the Or
egon Growers" Association, strawber
ries are daily shipped to Wodburn
from this point, averaging from 100
to 150 crates per day. These are of
various varieties, among them being
the New Oregon and Marshalls, and
are of exceptionally 'fine - quality.
These berries are being brought to the
W. H. Lucke warehouse, and shipped
by the Southern Pacific to the Wood
burn, cannery. .; ;
It was feared that the strawberry
crop this season would fall short, but
indications now point to a normal
crop, and Mr. Lucke says the ship
ping of strawberries from Canby will
probably continue for about two
' weeks.
, The berries in the local market
range from $1.10 to $1.25 per crate,
and are of excellent flavor for can
ning purposes. Many of the 1922 crop
are of an unusually "tarty" taste,
which is believed to be due to the late
frosts when the berries were begin
ning to form. Many of the yards are
now being picked. A large picking
will be on Thursday, when another
big shipment will be made.
Canby has long been famous for her
luscious strawberries. The soil is
adapted for growing this fruit, and
many of the farmers are carrying on
this, industry as a side line, while oth- j
ers are growing asparagus as a side
line.
PETITION OPPOSES BUS
CANBY, June 13. .At the regular
council meeting held in this city on
the first Monday night of June, an
effort was made to establish "an or
dinance prohibiting the Portland
Salem bus from stoping in the city
limits to take on passengers or to al
low passengers to stop here. Today
at the weekly luncheon of the Busi
ness Mens' club at the Cottage hotel
the matter was discussed by about 15
members in attendance. A number of
the members were in favor of such a
movement while there were others
opposed to the movement.
This afternon George Cauey, re
cently establishing the "Kozy Korner"
ice cream parlors and lunch room on
the highway in this city at the cross
roads of the Canby-Macksburg road,
was out with a petition, which favor
ed the bus line stopping in the city
limits as at the present time. The pe-
tition is largely signed by many rep
resentative people of this city, in
cluding some of the prominent busi
ness and professional men. This will
be presented to the city council at
its nex meeting.
COUNTY'S STRAWBERRY
CROP IS AIDED BY RAIN
- CANBY, June 10. The rains of the
past few days have greatly benefited
the gardens and especially the straw
berry plants of this section, since the
hottest day registered 100 degrees.
According to the strawberry growers
of this section there will not be over
half a crop this year. This is due to
the late frosts and to. the continued
hot and unusual weather for May.
The loganberries, from all indica
tions, will be of a large crop. Many
of these will be shipped to the can
neries, some of the orders already
coming in.
Strawberries are finding a steady
market, the larger portion of which
are being shipped out of Canby.
Cherries will be plentiful according
to appearance of some of the trees
in this city.

ALL DOGS NOT COLOR BLIND
Belief That Has Long Been Held la
. Now Declared to Be Entirely
Wrong Impression.
An eminent authority once asserted
that all dogs were color blind. He
quoted, in support of his statement,
the case of two pug dogs who were
unable' to distinguish the difference
in color of the plates from which they
were fed.
The color sense may be entirely
lacking in pug dogs, which are not re
nowned for their sagacity; but to as
sume that every other .dog is color
blind is a deduction far from the
truth.
Not only can dogs be trained to rec
ognize color, but they, possess the nat
ural color sense in a very high degree.
They can differentiate between vari
ous subtle shades and tones, and their
likes and dislikes are strongly devel
oped. A fox terrier has been known to fol
low at a distance a perfect stranger,
solely because she was wearing a
dress similar in color to that worn by
his mistress. Only upon approaching
the woman did he find his mistake.
Advised "Flying Ships" for Malls.
More than 100 years ago when the
United States mails were being trans
ported by carriers on horseback, the j
editor. of the Freeman's Journal, now
the Norristown (Pa.) Herald, sug
gested the use of "flying ships."
In the issue of the Freeman's Jour
nal of Marth 1, 1822, the editor wrote:
"We would advise the postmaster
general to avail -himself of the novel
and the very ingenious flying machine.
Invented by James Bennett of Phila
delphia, by which we conceive, the
mails would be transported with more
celerity and their arrival at the places
of destination be much more certain
than is the case at present."
. Postoffice records show that in 1833
a "wonderful feat" was .performed in
carrying the mail and news dispatches,
by relays of horses every five miles,
between Washington and New York, in
15 hours. . ,
"Bird of Passage."
The earliest use of the term "bird
of passage" is found in eighteenth
book of the Natural History of Pliny
the Elder (23-27 A. D.), where he says:
"The bird of passage known to na
as the cuckoo," and the term has since
been applied to birds which migrate
with a season from a colder to a
warmer, or from a warmer to a colder
climate, divided into summer birds of
passage and winter birds of passage.
Such birds always breed In the coun
try to which they resort in summer,
that is, In the colder of their homes.
The term is said to have been first
applied to sailors by Bacon who de
clared that the uncertainty, instability
and fluctuating state of human life
was most aptly represented by those
sailing the ocean.
Vast Sum' Spent for Food.
The people of the United States
spend more than $49,000,000 a day for
Tood, or nearly $l.r00,000,000 a month.
Nearly one-third of the money goes for
bread, potatoes, fruits, sugar and oth
er food of a vegetable nature. More
than two-thirds Is spent for meat, fish,
eggs, cheese -and lard. The average
householder hands over to the butcher
more than one-fifth of his income. The
people of tills country1 consume in a
year-two and a half billion eggs and
near ten and a half billion gallons of
aiilk. But a large part of . the milk
goes to make 1,600,000,000 pounds of
and 260,000,000 gallons of ice cream,
butter, 400,000,000 pound- of cheese

" " Rosewood Merely a Name.
Rosewood, so much used in making
fine furniture, is not the wood of any
rose tree, but ftrthat of several species
of tree and so called because it has a
perfume of roses and a generally rosy
color. One kind conies from Surinam
and is very fragrant another from
Brazil Is the Dalbergia nigra F. All.,
according to Samuel J. Record of Yale.
There Is also a rosewood from Hon
duras which is considered the best In
the world for xylophone bars.
Comes To Oregon City
Mrs. Lottie Fischer, of Redland,
was In Oregon City on Wednesday.
LUCKY WORKER GETS BUTTON
Rather Odd Way by Which Employer
Selects Longshoremen for Par
ticular Job He Has.
The ancient game of "Button, button,
who has the button?" is played by
serious groups of men daily along the
New York water front. A small crowd
may be seen gathered about a wagon
from which a man distributes the but
tons. The men who get the buttons
win.
The man in the wagon with the
buttons, as a matter of fact, is choos
ing workmen, and finds the button
game a convenient scheme for making
his choice. The plan is commonly
used in selecting longshoremen to
work cargoes on the ships. At an
early hour longshoremen hunting jobs
gather about the dock entrances. The
man who needs workers takes his po
sition in a wagon, or perhaps on a box,
and " calls for workmen. The crowd
gathers about him.
From his position the employer can
see the face and figures of the men.
From long experience he can tell at
a glance which men best serve his
purpose. He makes up hLs mind in a
moment's inspection. To signal the
man and get him out of the crowd
would require time and lead to compli
cations." He merely flips a button or
small disk to the man he has selected.
The man catches It and makes his way
out of the crowd to the dock. The
button game is a great saver of time.
KANGAROO A NATURAL BOXER
Youngsters Are Taught by Their Par-
ents and Acquire a Really High
Degree of Efficiency.
Kangaroos are natural boxers. The
younger kangaroo Is taught to de
fend himself in this way as soon as
he isold enough to hop about. Nat
uralists who have watched the ani
mals in their native surroundings say
It Is very funny to see the mother
giving the youngster his first boxing
lessons. Aftestvard the father takes
up the teaching, and with much gentle
ness and patience trains him to box.
When kangaroos box they back off
and rush in and prance about very
skillfully. Each one watches for an
opportunity to strike, and at the same
time tries to prevent the other
from striking. They cleverly try to
move about eo as .to get the enemy
below them on the slope of a hill.
The resounding blows they give with
their hind feet can be heard far away.
The kangaroo fights like a gentle
man. He is a good sportsman, even
when he Is fighting with his enemy.
The animals strike with the flat of the
foot, and never use against each
other their terrible ripping claws.
First Train Into the Ozark.
When the White River branch of the
Missouri Pacific railroad was built
down through the Ozarks, the popula
tion had never seen a railroad train.
The platform was crowded, and many
women were there with their sun
shades. The engineer made a lot of unnec
essary snortlngs with his engine and
would reverse the throttle, causing the
wheels to spin around, which terrified
the people. Then he turned on the
side valves, blowing out great jets of
steam, and the people almost fell over
themselves to back out of the way.
Finally the engineer stuck his head
out of the cab window and sang out:
"If some of you ladies don't put down
your parasols I don't believe I can
handle this critter much longer."
In three seconds every woman low
ered her parasol, and they seemed
much relieved when the engineer got
his train in motion without further
trouble and went lumbering away
down the track. Columbus (Kan.) Ad
vocate. Coal and Manchu's Ghost.
The Fushun coal mine of China is
one of the largest open-cut mines in
the world. The Tartars are known to
have worked the mine in the Twelfth
century.
For years the Chinese have been
urged to work the mine, but Chinese
officialdom has always pointed to the
fact that the spirit of Tai-Tsu-Kao, a
Manchu emperor, who was buried 10
mUes away In the Seventeenth century
must not be disturbed. Thus for cen
turies superstition kept over 1,000,
000,000 tons of coal untouched. In
their efforts to open the mines, the
Japanese not only found great official
hostility to their scheme on the part
of the Chinese officials, but even the
native coolies .were reluctant at first
to work, through their fear of the
sleeping Tal-Tsu-Kao, 10 miles distant.
Rainbows Shaken.
It Is usually supposed that the dawn
pour of rain that sometimes follows a
flash of lightning is due to the coa
lesence of fine drops on losing their
electrical charge, but a Finnish ob
server concludes that the thunder jars
the drops together. Near Vasa a heavy
thunderstorm came up from the east
late one afternoon, and, as the sun
was unclouded, a brilliant double rain
bow appeared in the east for half an
hSiiT, arching from horizon to horizon.
At each roU of thunder the rainbows
seemed to be much shaken, the wedge
being displaced and the colors blurred.
This could not be due to the lightning,
and it seemed that the same cause
might enlarge the raindrops and dis
turb the rainbow.

HEIRS OF THE MIDDLE AGES
Artists of Today Are But Carrying On
the Work of the Old Master
Craftsmen.
The art of the Middle ages is really
the art of youth. It has no finality,
because that which it expresses can
never be finished. It lives with un
measured potentialities still before It.
Until the Renaissance, and men's sub
sequent concentration upon commerce
and science, it seldom rested in the
West, but grew from one stage to an
other as in ow still living arts of
painting, and music, poetry, and the
drama we still move and change and
grow. -
The Middle ages were the age of
youth. I do not mean merely of young
nations, but of men who were build
ing up the future and had unlimited
development before them. It was our
youth, and we are growing from it.
In so far as our art lives the art of
our Intelligentsia It is growing from
that stem. In so far as it' Is dead, lt
Is In those forms of art which have
ignored their own parentage, such as
architecture, ornament, the crafts,
and much sculpture, and have tried to
form themselves from ancient models
In the pedantry of the schools. They
are cut off from the stem and they
languish. But painting, like music and
poetry, has gone on without a break
and is alive today. . . . Let us take
heart. We are the heirs of those old
craftsmen. Percy Dearmer.
