Messrs. Kearns and Williams, with
their wives drove to Salem and spent
a week looking over tin logan berry
situation. They visited a number o:
big berry growers and it was the opin-
ion of all of them that the logan berry
industry had come to stay. While the
price paid this y?ar is very low this
is only temporary because of the ble
price paid last year the people who
hold the product want to get their
money back; consequently but few

want to pay the high prices for the

YACHATS FARM BUREAU
PICNIC BIG SUCCESS
ln attendance at the big Farm Bureau
Picnic held at Yai liats July 29th and
"0l"' Tllere was eoniothlng doing
every nilute and differing from slmi-
llar occasions, there waa more doing
than advertised.
j Aside from the many native attrac
tions of tho Yachats, Frlday'B enter-
Dy an excellent program or music,
speaking and dialogue. Following the
program was a sport program and ln
the evening a big bonfire on the
beach.
Saturday's program consisted of a
speclul clam, crab and salmon .bake.
an afternoon sport program and big
bonfire on the beach at which all the
new and best atories of the age were
. told-
I TIlB NewPrt band added wonder-
fully t0 t,le occa3ion-
People In attendance were Insistent
that the event be made an annual
one, promising to bring their neigh.
bors with them next year.
The remarkable thing about the
pcnc wag that the success of the
BffBr cannot be credited to any one
or few individuals as the whole south
end of the county jumped rfeht In and
helped the Yachats Farm Bureau peo-
pie make a succcbs of it. For the
dinner, pies and cakes came by parcel
post from all over the terri.ory. True
it is however, special credit is due
Messrs. Mitchell, Kocher and Mrs.
Harrison of the committee on ar
rangements and Mrs. Hoffman of the
program committee, and Mrs. Hcluoehl
who remained night and day with tho
stand, and Mr. Hays who run his
truck at high tide or low but It would
be impossible to enumerate all those
deserving credit for the big success
of tho event was due to the fact that
everybody thero Just Jumped In and
did all they could to make every
body else have a good time.
That the people appreciate nn event
put on not with a view of money mak
ing but -for the good time of all was
certainly well Illustrated by the ac
tion of many of lio visitors who came
to tlie committee asking to he per
mitted to muke donations to help do

represented Mr. Lewis, and Attorney
Ilauipson, of Portland, defended the

The second jury trial was that of
1). S. Conrad vs. Warren Ashworth.

two ugo. Mr. Conrad was represented
by B. F. Jones, and Mr. Ashworth by
Hawkins, McCluskey and Clarke. The
