rated with Christian: bells, ami a
cheery, old fashioned li replace with a
glowing tire nddnl to the spirit of

AND NOW IT'S PEANUTS
THAT GROW IN OREGON
Oregon cnt!iuM,iM.-i Hometlmcs
claim to be able to raise almost
everything that grows In the Heaver
state, ami their claims seem extrava
gant some times. Hut from time to
time another product Is added to
those that are proved to grow here,
until It seems almost as if there
scarcely were a limit to the range of
Oregon's possible products.
The latest Is peanuts. The last
issue of the Hlllsboro Independent
contains the following:
' F. A. Haines brought to t he I n
ilepemlent o(lic this week a quantity
of peanuts grown on his property on
Washington street. They were
planted by him a year ago and for
got ten, a ml It was only by accident
that he ran onto them. Those
brought to the ollice are still at
tached to the roots. They are of
average size and prove that with a
little attention the goobers call be
successfully grown here. While It Is
generally believed a sandy soil Is re
quired Mr, Haines sa.s these were
planted in a heavy black loam, D.
H. 1 lea soner exhibited peanuts grown
on his place at tin- last street fair,
and with Mr. Haines' experience it
would appear that Washington
county can cease Importation of the
toothsome nuts whenever somebody
gets ready to start In the business."
I, i. Hogmer ami Max Kurkhardt
: Chicago men, arrived here Saturday
and are looking the valley over. Mr.
Hogmer has decided to make Hood
Kiver his home and expects to be
