One of the- smaller items of harvest was 200 tons of cu cumbers, gathered from 20 acres of irrigated land. . The ranch U the largest truck garden lh the state, reclaimed by dikes along the Columbia river and extending to the' north of the Sandy boulevard approach to the Columbia river highway.

December 24, Christmas eve, and a most attractive program is being worked out by representatives of all or ganizations. HARD SURFACE PROVIDED Once more the county budget is graced by an item appropriating $8,000 for the hard surfacing of Fairview avenue, which would connect the Sandy boule vard and the Base Line road and " greatly facilitate travel , between GresT ham, Rockwood, Powell Valley and othef' points to the Fairview railroad station, an Increasingly important shipping point for many producers of eastern Multno mah county. Twice before, however, the budget has provided for this road, and . it fell down to gravel, which is not what is wanted anil in the long run costs more than cement or asphaltum. The petition for an election of the Fairview school district to vote on the question of Joining in the Union high school district at Gresham, has been filed but notices, are not yet posted. It is ex pected that the election will be set for Friday evening, December 31. If there Is to be any world exposition In Oregon in 1925 Fairview wants' to be in on it. Its people assert they have the finest 'View of the Columbia river in the county and are so situated that it would make an ideal spot" for the location of the exposition Itself.
