most enjoyable occasion. The house

a duet by Mrs. Guy Smith and Mrs.
Stanyon and solos by Miss Mapes,
Miss Sheppard and Mrs. Dutro. The
choir was composed of attendants at
both churches. A large number of
persons took part in the service. The
secret of the success of these meet
ings is that they belong to the people
and they are never twice alike. The
aim is to set forth the vital things of
religion in the simplest way.

WANT RIVER ROAD
DONE NEXT YEAR
From a long, first page article in the
Oregonian yesterday the following par
agraphs are reprinted:
Discussion of plans for the construc
tion of Multnomah County's end of
the Portland-Hood River road has oc
cupied considerable of the time of the
county court for the past week wiili
the result that within the next few
days the court probably will declarc
its intention to expend $75,000 on the
project this year and whatever balance
may be necessary in 1914, the object
being to have the road ready for travel
at the end of the latter year. This :b
partly in anticipation of a large tour
ist trade in 1915, the year of the San
Francisco Exposition, it being the ex
pectation that this beautiful scenic
boulevard along the Columbia Rtvu
will prove quite a drawing card for
Portland.
On a basis of free labor County Road
Superintendent Chapman estimates
that the project will cost approximci'o
ly $127,000 and that with convict la
bor this can be cut 25 per cent. In
some places where the working gangs
will be spread out over long distances
or the country is timbered, it will be
Impracticable to use the prisoner be
cause the cost of guarding then will
be too high, Mr. Chapman explains,
but a camp will be established n.-ar
Oneonta, where It will be necessary
to drive a tunnel 110 feet In length.
Just a little east of this there is a mile
which It is estimated will cost $20,000
to construct and prisoners will be used
on this as they can be kept together.
The tunnel will cost $6000.
Court Proceedings Avoided
The O.-W. R. & N. Co. right of way
has enroached in places on an old
survey of the road laid out under state
auspices In 1872, in which year $50,000
was appropriated for the project. A
few years later the Legislature appro
proprlated an additional $50,000 and
this was spent also, but neither
amount, apparently, to good effect, as
little in the nature of permanent im
provement was effected. The county
has definitely laid out Its survey and
by a process of give and take an ami
cable arrangement, precluding the nec
essity of court proceedings, is being
made with the railway company.
The first part of the project calls
for the relocation of four miles of
road between Rooster Rock and Bridal
Veil. The grade on this stretch of
road is now as great as 19 per cent
and it is proposed to cut it to a maxi
mum of 5 per cent If it were neces
sary to go over Latourelle Hill there
would be a grade of 18 or 19 per cent,
but here the railway has agreed that
the outer edge of the road may come
within 104 feet of the center of Its
track provided that the county builds
a fence between 200 and 300 feet In
length as a precaution against acci
dents. The road here will be 16 feet
In width.
Morrow-Rand Wedding
Randolph L. Morrow and Miss Hazel
Rand were married Monday at the
home of the bride's parents, Mr. and
Mrs. Jack Rand. Rev. W. B. Young

quest that the ceremony, whilch has

sooner than had been Intended. Both

NEW ASSOCIATION
FORMED AT MEDFORD
The Rogue River Co-operative Fruit-
I Growers' Association was formed at a
meeting of a number of interested
growers Saturday. The new associa
tion was formed primarily to take care
of the smaller growers In the valley
and those who teel that co-operative
marketing is the most efficient way to
handle the fruit crop. J. A. Perry was
elected chairman and S. A. Nye was
elected secretary.
S. C. George extolled the co-operative
plan and declared that the pres
ent Rogue River Fruit & Produce As
sociation is on the wrong tack in sell
ing and, moreover, does not co-operate
with the majority of the growers.
Others said the most important
thing to be considered was the control
of the association by the members and
the way that the voting power should
be separated. This, it was maintain
ed, could ba brought about best by al
lowing to one man only one vote, no
matter how much stock he might own.
THE "CREAMERY PROMOTER."
Reports from the dairy commission
ers of Kentucky, Tennessee and some
uther southern states sevm to Indicate
thnt within the past two or three yeurs
dozens of co-iK'rative crennieries have
been built under the influence of the
professional "creiimery promoter" In lo
calities where the conditions did not
warnint the establishment of such a
plant. These promoted concerns cost
the stockholder nil the way from $4,
."joo to fd.ooo and In most cases were
Inter sold at auction for one-third of
the original cost. The promoter, who
wns looking out for No. 1 chiefly, got a
rnkeolT of $2,000 from encb one of the
creameries built. The exiierlence with
the above class of southern creameries
should not 1 construed as un argument
against establishing creameries In new
territory, but It ought to serve as a
most emphatic warning for farmers
who are interested In establishing the
dairy business to give the professional
creamery promoter a wide licrth. He
Is not In the business for his health,
and his victims Hre always painfully
aware of this fact lefore they get free
from his hook. If the responsible fann
ers of any locality miike up their minds
that they really want to start a cream
ery the wise thing to do Is to ask the
state dairy department to send a repre
sentative Into their midst, with whom
they may confer. In aadltlon to get
ting disinterested advice from him It
would je well to pay the oar fare and
hotel bills of some thoroughly prac
ticable and reliable man who Is man
aging a creamery under conditions that
would likely prevail In the new place.
If this plan Is followed out not only
will creameries not be started where
they ought not to be started, but If It
is decided after thorough Investigation
that the circumstances Justify starting
one the plant when completed will cost
less than half what It would If built
under the advice and direction of a
promoter.
If a sow has acquired the habit of
eating her little pigs the best thing to
do Is to fatten her and send her to

vent sows from eating their pigs Is to
give them hnlf a pound of tankage
with n lrnn nnd shorts slop a week or
more before farrowing time. In fact

USE OF "TURKISH" WORDS.
Ottomans Themselves Don't Know the
Meaning of Them.
"Sublime porte" I one of those Eu
ropean expressions for Turkish Insti
tutions which nre never used by the
Turks themselves. The Ottoman gov
ernment's otliclal title for Itself Is Hu-kyumet-l
seuiye. the glorious govern
ment. Turks do not speak of "the sultan,"
but of the "indlshnh." a Persian term
meaning the father of monarch.
Turkey Is a geographical expression
used outside the land It denotes, but
unknown to those who dwell in It.
The Turks talk of Itonmella Amidol.
The foreign residents may sjieak of
Anatolia. Albania or the tobunnn.
They will tell you they live at Smyr
na, Snlonlkl or Beirut or elsewhere,
but the word Turkey never crosses
their Hps. In the realm Itself there Is
no collective name for the territory of
the sultan.
Albania, Hnlgarla and Roumnnla, al
though contiguous to one n not her,
spenk three totally different languages.
The Ilulgnrlan tongue Is thnt of an

that of ancient Rome more closely than
modern Italian does. Albanian bns no
