cording to the tales of the shooters.

Lime Board Passes
Up Sam Moore
Corvallis, Or., Oct. 6. 'September 25
Sam Moore of this city made applica
tion to the state lime board for the
superlntendency of the lime plant. He
says he made the application because
his many friends complained that the
lime board had not dona anything visi
ble toward getting cheap lime in the
five months since their appointment,
and they urged htm to make the ap
plication. At the meeting of fhe board at Sa
lem the twenty-sixth, the application
was not considered, was. not even pre
sented to th. board, and this week Mr.
Moore asked that it be returned to
him. "X did not much expect that the
application would he favorably consid
ered," said Mr. Moore,, "but I did ex
pect j-that it would be disposed of In
some manner, that it would at least
be recognized. Perhaps X would not be
able to accomplish any more than has
been done, but I would at least" like
to . try- With the government calling
on us to double our grain yield, 'with
the legislature having passed a law for
a state lime plant and with any
amount of lime deposits in Western
Oregon, It would seem that something
definite could be done along this line.
We certainly cannot double our grain
yield without' lime for the land."

High School Pupils '
To . Harvest Apples
Hood River, Or., OcU 6, Hood River '
high school has fceen dismissed for
ttso weeks in order to permit the stu
dents to assist in the picking and
packing of the Hood River valley -apple
crop. While there are many
pickers from the outside in the valley,
it is evident that tbey will not be able
to g&tbcr the k.pple crop in time to .
prevent them from becoming overripe
on the trees.
Spltzenbergs, comprising over V 50
per cent of the apple tonnage,' are
slow in coloring, and the growers pre
dict that unless they, are promptly
gathered when sufficiently colored that
the loss from drop will be very heavy.
The bean' crop of the valley will
amount to over 60 tons, according to
Kelly brothers, who have operated a
threshing machine in the valley this
season to thresh the beans. It is ea
tlmated that Hood River growers will
have approximately 40 carloads of ,
potatoes to sell this year. The yield
'has been heavy in all sections of the
valley. Several carloads - have - been
raised on the town lots this season
that have heretofore grown up into
weeds. ,.

A NEW shoe-leather makes its appearance this
year. It is called Siberian Kid Calf really
comes from Siberia and is the hide of the
small calves of that country. With all the strength
of calf it combines the softness and. pliability of
kid. It polishes beautifully and does not easily
scuff.
- As it has been increasingly difficult to obtain
Russian skins since the outbreak of the vvar, this ,
superior leather in American shoes represents a
great triumph for the big Walk-Over organization.
Practically all the shoe-leather that has been
brought from Russia since hostilities began has gone
into Walk-Over shoes. Ask to be shown a Siberian
Kid Calf Shoe. :
