U. S. Pleadings in
Lumber Suit Lose; .
To Amend Action
Motion of attorneys for the Grand
Ronde Lumber company to dismiss the
civil action filed against it by the
government to recover a large tract of
timber land waa upheld In: the federal
court ' this morning by Judge R. &
Bean. The court, however, granted As
sistant United States Attorney John
Veatch the right to file an amended
complaint. The -original complaint is
held to be defective because the first
Grand Ronde Lumber company was dis
solved February 9, 1914, and the com
plaint does not show the connection be
tween that company and the one now in
existence. Veatch said he had this mat
ter up with the department at Wash
ington before he Tiled the complaint
and was advised not to include the com
plete Identification. Judge Bean has
held differently from the attorney gen
eral's office, so Veatch wllL file an
amended complaint.

Statutory Offense Charged
George Galanis, a -section hand, has
been held to the grand jury on the
charge of having como&jtted a statutory
offense against a 15-yatfa-old girl.
By Tlrnuui H. Cohen
That, extravagance of the buying
public has. greatly subsided and that
consumers are no longer willing to
pay unnatural prices for foodstuffs
la the statement of several members
of the wholesale grocery trade.
In this they see a reaction toward nor
mal times. Prices on many commodities
of foodstuftsare dropping but here and
there so rae advances have been noted.
The latter are principally in those com
modities that come from a distance and
are affected by the higher transportation
charges.
Fred H. Cooper, head of the sales
forces of Wadhams Co., wholesale
grocers, says that there is no doubt that
the period of declining values and price
adjustments, that consumers have longed
lor and expected for many montns, nas
now definitely begun.
Cooper has for yesrs been a student
of foodstuff values, therefore" hi analy
sis Is viewed wtth favor.
"For the, first time since the beginning
of the world war," says Cooper, "the
declines in staple groceries have more
-than counterbalanced advance a most
healthful sign, so fsr as the consumer
Is concerned. While many Eastern
manufactured products were affected by
the increase In freight rates, heavy re
ductions in such commodities or neces
sities as sugar, coffee, cooking oils and
fats, flour . and cereals, rice, beanB,
canned tomatoes. mUk and nuU will ma

Why the flavor 1 .
doesn't vary
It is rcriHirkabte that twenty-four kitch
ens can cooperate so closely that the
quality of Tillamook Cheese does not
vary. The cheese in every rat is test
ed before it leaves the kitchens and
unless the highest standard is reached,
Tillamook is not placed on the rind.
Tillamook is so good in flavor because
of its creamy richness. It is high in
food value and will reduce -he cost of
Irving materially, if substituted for
meat and eggs on your menus. Five
quarts t& full cream milk are used in
making a pound of Tillamook Cheese.
Delicious souffles, egg omelettes, pota
toes, macardni an4 cheese and other
every day dishes will be improved by
the use of Tillamook Cheese and
melted Tillamook Cheese on toast
oh, bow good!
The best grocers everywhere
sell Tillamook Cheese by the
slice or in 6 and 14 pound sizes.
