Following its original precepts to assist in every movement tending to ward the betterment of Lincoln Coun ty, the Chamber of Commerce has Joined hands with the other commer cial hnrllea nf the. cniintv. the Granee. the Farm Bureau, the dairymen and sheep and goat rarmers particularly, in putting on a big two-day Lincoln County Improvement Conference sche duled at Toledo February 18th and 19th. Never did Lincoln County face a more stalled condition than at pres ent," stated County Agent Cooter, in discussing the need for the conference. "The goat and sheep farmers have last year's clip on thoir hands and the prospects for market improve ment is slight. The dairyman is fast approaching a condition where his re turns will not meet the cost of production. Hogs and beef cattle can not be grown at a profit under pres ent conditions.

NOTICE TO ADVERTISERS ..To Insure Insertion In current week's Issue, all changes for adver tisements should be handed In not later than Wednesday evening. I CORRECTION OF MISSTATEMENT In our writeup last week of tha road meeting held at Newport w stated that State Highway Commis sioner Booth of Eugene had made a proposition to County Commissioner Jay Dunn whereby the Highway Com mission offered to do certain road work In tills county provifed Lincoln County would vote a bond Issue ot $360,000 and turn it over to the high way commission. . , In talking with Mr. Dunn since we learn that we were mistaken In this statement as It was Mr. Dunn who made the proposition to Mr. Booth, in stead of the other way round, and that Mr. Booth expressed himself as being favorable to same, provided that was what the people of this county wanted, and of course It would have to be agreeable to the other state high way commissioners. At the meeting held at Portland last week nothing definite was accomplished toward tha undertaking as the state highway commission desired to wait and see whether the legislature took any ac tion with regard to the Roosevelt Hlghwoy. NO MORE BUTTER SUB STITUTE FOR TOLEDO Another Instance nf mutual. Interact spirit being developed between busi- N nesBman ana rarmer was domonsratPd recently when the farmers, thru ths Olalla Farm Bureau rnmmnnltv nr?nnl. zation, asked the merchants of Toledo to discontinue the sale of butter sub stitutes. Only two houses were sell ing the substitute and they will here after offer real Lincoln County butter in place of the imitation. PROCLAMATION To the People of the State of' Oregon:' The prune Industry is one of tha greatest horticultural Industries within the Stato of Oregon. Nearly forty thousund acres of our flnu-Ht agricul tural lands are planted with prune trees. Last year, despite adverse wenther couditious, thirty million pounds of prunes were harvested in tho state. Of this number but eight million have been sold. The twenty two million pounds unsold represent an enormous asset to the Stats of Ore gon if they can be moved and placed in the hands of the consumers. The fact that they are lying idle Jeopardises tills enormous industry. The people of the State of Oregon should give widest co. operation to the prune growers to meet the grave situation. I hereby designate the week from February 14th to February 19th, In clusive, as Prune .Week within this state. I call upon the good spirit of our people to Join in a movement to assist this great Industry, not only for the good of the industry itself, but for the good of the people of 'the state as a whole. I urge that every home in Oregon take advantage of the oppor tunity which is presented by the prune growers to become well stocked with this nourshlng and healthy fruit. I ask cooperation from hatols, grocers, restaurants, or from any other source which may give assistance, and I also bespeak the hearty cooperation of tho press, which is always freely given in the furtherance ot every proper and beneficial movement. This Is a serious situation, involving the welfare of thousands of our best citizens. Prompt and hearty response from the people of Oregon in the purchase of one ot our greatest home products will re lieve the situation and bring about a quick betterment of conditions. I am certain ithe appeal of the prune growers will not be In vain. , Very sincerely yours, Ben W. Olcott, Governor. DURHAM tobacco makes 50 flood cigarettes for 10c
