Pra4her, of The Prather Car Jen3, at Yoder, 1 2 miles north of Silverton, is the melon king of his secjion, if not of the whole Salem district, lie has been rais ing melons nearly all, his life, lie raised melons in Iowa, . and he raised them in South Dakota. It was at Fort Pierre in that state that he had his melon farm. lie grew there 54 melons on a square rod, and a real estate firm used a picture of Mr. Prather and j his 54 melons-to widely advertise the productiveness of the land there. Mr. Prather has a 20 acre tract at Yoder, and he bas about, six, acres in melons this year, 't jie rest of the land being in toma toes, potatoes and other vege tables. A Pretty Sight The, melons in the Prather Gar dens make a pretty sight at this time. Mn Prather specializes bh the .New Improved Hearts of Gold cantaloupes, though he has sev eral other varieties, some of them as. experiments; The. New im proved Hearts of Gold cantaloupe is all that its name implies,: in coloring, and more in flavor.: In watermelons, he gives prominence to the Kleckley Sweet, the Honey Giant and -the Radio, the last named a, new variety. The Klon dike, is also a promising new .va riety which he is trying. He raises also the Honey Giant and the Giant of. All Giants watermel ons. He has produced at Yoder samples of the last named weigh ing 50 pounds, and he has taken first prizes at the Molalla, Canby and Oregon state fairs. , ; Mr. Prather has been raising melons at his present "place for seven years. Yoder is in the west ern Molalla valley, and Mr. Prath er thinks this is the prettiest val ley, with the best iand in all Ore gon, or anywhere else. Both Mr. and Mrs. Prather were born . in Pennsylvania. They are assisted in their gardening work by their son, Kern. . Sells at Farm Mr. Prather sells all his melons at his farm to people who come from Portland. Silverton, Salem and other cities to get the best melons money will buy.

' "Mr." Prather will have melons all the month' of September; "a"nd no doubt the" people who know about them will come and buy them and take them away. Some days, people come almost in droves. Mr. Yoder has been in the business so long that he knows a ripe melon by its appear ance, and. in the case of water melons, by its feel. He never makes a mistake. He does not raise his own seed. He says seed from the same land tends to produce white hearts in watermelons.. So he gets all hi seed- new each year; from other melon sections of the country. He says no country can grow better melons than those produced at Yoder. s, VOUfHS' BLACK NAME CALLED WET ATTACK ( Cotiinud from pag 1.) false picturing of youth. No meaner political slander has ever been invented than this business of rubbing smut-on the boys and girls By the liquor interests and their friends. ' The American public has been treated to several" graphic demon strations of the untruth of the wet slander. Ten thousand young people marched in protest again, this accusation in Atlanta, Georg ia; a college" executive, : carried away by the excitement of the occasion, testified before the Sen ate Judiciary Committee. that stu dents were drinking to excess and when he returned to his friends the stulents made him publicly disown every word he had saij; a poll of Anlerican colleges shows a big majority of young men and women seriously in favor of pro hibition, and oily an Inconsequen tial percentage in favor of a re turn to beer and wine. Charges that the every day lives of hiRh school boys and girls have de generated into drunken orgies have been investigated and found 1 t . r ; ,7 Copyright 1926SN.

We know more about boys and girls than the wet politicians whose ap petite has taken the place of judg ment, conscience, or allegiance to the Constitution. - We declare unequivocally th.it the young people of this country, our own boys and girls, are clean, fine up.s4anding. loyal patriots, of whom we are all proud. Many, of the women of this organization are mothers, and resent these vicious slurs and calumnies on youth, and will make every effort to oppose and expose thone who have made these false statements. We have organized a Patriotic Roll for young people of high, school and college years and upon this roll areinscribed the names of half a million of the.se young peo ple who have sworn allegiance to the Constitution. This roll, growing rapidly, will, soon number a miillion. and is typical of our youth and it.s splendid sfand for right. Poor parental authority, not prohibition, has given rise to the cabaret fringe of gilded youth. j Hut the proper solution is to make liquor inaccessible,' not to modify the laws so that drinkvill be more easily obtained. - The National W. C. T. I ha. spread this appeal broadcast. It will go to every city and village; to every church and to every school. We will endeavor to pre sent the facts to every mother in America. We have communicated with the leading national women's organizations and we intend to support only those candidates who do not try to climb 'into office by blackening the reputation of fu ture America. We ask the voters of "this coun try to repudiate the wet argu ments, to support the Constitution of the United, States, and to carry as a united slogan "Stand by Our Youth.'

' ' The studies brought;, to light that college boys 'and girls are seriously -in favor of prohibition and that the prosperity and gen eral moral tone of the United States has made possible a college enrollment of 725,000. whereas just before national prohibition there was only a third of that number. The Intercollegiate Prohibition Association made a representative test of the sentiment of college students and, in a national survey covering 102 schools in 32 states, received replies from 162,000 stu dents favoring prohibition and from 1998 opposed to prohibition. The replies showed: There is less drinking among the college students than ever. Present conditions surrounding students in college communities are more conductive to sobriety than were conditions prior to pro hibition. Kvery charge that school boys and girls are demoralized by pro hibition has been investigated and proved wrong. There is no more competent ex pert on youth than Alonzo Stagg, the nationally famous director of athletics at hicago University. The W. . T. U. is familiar twith what he had to say about these wet slanders on youth, -but a para graph reiterated perhaps will not be out of place: "The statement that prohibition has produced these conditions is an absurdity and pure bunk," said Mr. Stagg. "The trouble with prohibition is not prohibition it self, but that itpas not been given a fair chance. Before there should be any consideration of a change in the VolsteadAct there should be an henest an conscientious ef fort made to enforce the law." Cross Meat Market.
