SHALL SALEM REMAIN THE LOGANBERRY CENTER?
' It was truthfully said,, a little while ago, that BO per cent of all
the loganberries in the worid were grown within sight of the eapitol
dome in Salem.
- Perhaps this proportion of the
cannot be maintained for so small
for the present, that the yards be kept as close together as possible,
and as close to Salem as possible; and they are bound to be eon
fined to the "Willamette valley, f
This valley has what amounts to a franchise on loganberry
growing. .
The loganberry grows to greater perfection here than elsewhere.
It needs the soil and the climate that are peculiar to the Wil
lamette valley, to attain the perfection that is required for the
berry of commerce; and for the making sof the loganberry juice
that has attained a high place in the markets of this country.
' The new yards ought to be as close together as possible, in
order to accommodate the pickers; in order to secure the necessary
men women and children to harvest the crop. ? f
- ' And they Oiould be as close: to Salem as jossible in order to be
near the factories and to save the costs of long distance transporta
tion"' . '
It is entirely reasonable to expect KXK) more of the farmers of
the country around Salem to plant from one to three or four or more
acres each of loganberries, this spring.
It will be good for them; for the industry; for Salem, and for
the whole country. It will help to further stabilize the industry and
point the way to one of the biggest things in this or any country.
More and more aces of loganberries, and more and more logan
berries to the acre. That is the slogan -
The loganberry industry should help to secure for Salem a glass
factory. The bottles used in that industry would go a long way to
wards keeping such a factory busy. And the raw materials may be
had here, or near here.
Plant
it now.

you destroy It entirely To do this.
Just get about four cunces of plain
common liquid Arvon from any drug

ply it at night when retiring; use
enough to moisten the tcalp and rub
it in gently with the finger tips.
By morning, most If not all, cf
your dandruff will be gone, and
three or four more; applications will
completely dissolve ' and entirely de
stroy every single sign and trace of
it, no matter how much dandruff you
may have.
You will find all Itching and dig
ging of the scalp will stop instantly,
and your hair will be fluffy, lustrour,
glossy, silky and soft, cud look and

First and Second Units
May Be Bailt This Year
The state fair board Is now
strongly inclined not only to build
the first unit of thenew coliseum at
the fajr grounds this year, but the
seconlf unit as well. This would
tost from $20,000 to $25,000 addi
tional and would still leave the seat
ing and much of the Inside finish
ing of the building uncompleted.:
The boards' building committee
yesterday arrived at an agreement
with the contracting firm of Sie
wert Kngstrom and Architect ti. I.
Thompson whereby construction will
proceed on the first unit. The eon
tract price for this unit is $16,820.

duction charge brought by Smith.
When Smith was brought out of Cal
ifornia by the warden no complain
ing witness was , left against -Keller,
ho itis probable that he will arrlv
in Salem tonight.
Warden Murphy says the fact of
Kellers' affair with Smith have been
garbled and that no fist fight took
place between the two when Keller
arrested the convict upon his leaving
San Quentln prison. The prlfconer'i
mother was there at the time, anl
after Keller had explained the Ore
gon side of the case it was agreed
that Smith return to Salem without
fighting the case. He was taken
to Ssn Francisco by Keller and plac
ed in the county Jail. Over In Oak
land, Smith has two children .and
asked Captain Keller to go with him
to visit them, which the captain did
willingly. Upon the return to San
Francisco they found Smith's attor
ney from San Refel who Immediately
Instituted habeas corpus proceeding
and took tho prisoner away from
KeHer. Keller retaliated by swear
ing out a warrant charging Smith
with being a fugitive from Justice
and wired to Salem for requisition

were recognized by the court, the
