Maasen Farm- Editor. The Statesman Youngberries, once so popular in the Willamette valley, are losing favor among growers, George Waldo, United States department of agriculture plant breeder. Cor va His, told some 100 caneberry growers Friday at Salem Chamber of Commerce. Climatic conditions are very favorable to the growth of cane berries in the valley, Waldo said. If given half a chance they will 2 Warehouse Projects Ready At Salem Sites Permits to build two ware houses in Salem at a total cost of $23,218 were issued Friday by the city engineers office. Ivan Stewart owner of Ivan Stewart and Company, 308 S, High st., received authorization to build a $14,000 warehouse at his present business site. Con struct ion will get under way in the early spring after part of the present building is torn down. Wrecking operations are expect ed to start as soon as weather permits, Stewart said Friday. The warehouse will be of cement con struction. The secretary of state's office of Oregon was granted permis sion to erect a combination ware house and garage at 1210 Ferry st., beside the state beating plant, at a cost of $9,218. The project was approved by the board of control at its Thursday meeting. Fred Patzer, Salem contractor, is in charge of construction which will start as soon as materials are here. The building will be of cement construction and will be used to house state cars and materials used by the secretary of states office. Chris Mad sen, Salem house wrecker, was granted a permit to start wrecking operations on the Claudius Thayer residence at 255 N. Capitol to make way for the new state office building. The old mansion was occupied recent ly by the late Secretary of State Robert S. FarrelL Jr. Other permits issued Friday went to Oscar Bjornson to alter a house and garage at 1807 Broad way st, $500; and to Mrs. Bessie C. Smith to reroof a residence at 245 E. Lincoln st., $298. Recorder Lanke Says Try for Job As Clerk Unlikely ' The suggested candidacy of Marion County Recorder Herman Lanke for the position of County clerk is highly improbable, Lanke said Friday. He is not required to stand for election in his own office this year. The statement was prompted by talk of the possibility that the legislature might merge the clerk's and recorder's offices as they are in some counties. Lanke deplored such a move i "11 right 25 years ago, but not now." Because of increased duties, the offices should be separated in all western Oregon counties, Lanke added. At present only three Ore gon counties, Marion. Linn and Umatilla, have separate recorder and clerk positions.

He ob- served that the thornless logan and evergreen seem to be quite successful but the thornless boy sen and youngberry were not giving constantly good results. Don Rasmussen, assistant Mar ion county agent introduced Wal do and the other speakers includ ing Dr. E. K. Vaughn, plant pa thologist who discussed caneberry diseases; Dr. R. C Stephenson, soil scientist who talked on soil management; C. L. RawUngs, ex tension horticulturist whose sub ject was plant growth, and Robert W. Every, plant entomologist who discussed berry pests. Willamette valley soils are short in nitrogen because the heavy rains wash fertilizers out of the soil. Dr. Stephenson said as he suggested cover crops, additional humus added to the soil and com mercial fertilizers as soil correc tive measures. Dr. Vaughn spoke of the serious condition of foli age rust In recent years and re commended spraying with lime sulphur hist before buds opened, cautioning against using too strong a solution as this would burn the buds. Rawlins urged growers to pro duce large plants with good, heal thy foliage as a means of produc ing larger berries of a better qual ity. McMinnville's Guard Company Inspected .

County Plans to Remove Bridge Near Clear Lake Decision to eliminate a bridge on county road 604, northwest of Clear Lake, which was washed out in the winter's high water, was reached Friday following in spection of the site by Marion County Engineer Hedda Swart Road Foreman Frank Woe Ike and Bridge Foreman Ted Kuenzi. Swart said the little-used road would be constructed to follow the land contour, rather than replac ing the bridge, since water would cover it only during floods. SP Challenges Silverton Flax Firm Complaint Claim that the Southern Paci fic company was acting within the law and that it "could not lawfully refuse to accept" ship ments of flax fibre and tow from the Oregon state flax Industry was made by the company Fri day in an answer filed in Marion county circuit court to a suit brought by Charles H. and T. T. Leonard of the Silverton Flax company. The Leonards sued to bar the state from the flax industry, in which convict labor is used, and to bar the products from inter state commerce. The company's answer admits giving interstate transportation, to shipments tendered to it by the state flax industry, but denies that it uses funds of the state or convict labor and that it has vio lated the law or damaged the plaintiffs irreparably. It denies collusion between It and any of the other defendants, which in clude the state board of control and Union Pacific railroad. The answer alleges that it in vestigated representations by the plaintiffs and has determined on the basis of an opinion by the U. S. attorney general that It "could not lawfully refuse to ac cept said shipments." It further allege that this court has. no Jurisdiction. Portland Judge Files Candidacy Martin W.

As property owners, we are entitled to know before we vote t! Tuesday 'a election that if the $3,500,000 bond issue being aLed for hy the School Board carriei, our property taxei will bt increased by approxi mately 23. That Is one of the Important truth's all of ui must keep In mind when we go to the polls. Also remember that onlj property owners ar eligible to vote on this important issue. , We are not questioning the School Board's right; to funds that ard needed for the operation of the school program; as citizens and parents, we want our schools maintained at the highest possible level of effici ency and under proper housing conditions. But we do not want to should der property . owners with the unnecessary burden the full $3,500,000 bond issue would create by increased taxation, impairment of our credit standing and the probable loss of additional business enterprises we now hope to attract into this area. An itemized report of the School Board's requirements for the pres ent time discloses that -the $3,500,000 bond iftsue you are being asked to authorize by your vote, is $2,000,000 more than is presently necessary. The plain truth Is that such over-financing fs contrary to the princi ples of sound business management. The operation of our school pro gram is an important business and we want to see it properly financed. That can be done if you vote against the proposal at Tuesday's election and vote for a more reasonable amount later. CITIZENS' coiviMrrrEE Henry R. Crawford, Chairman The) Skrtssuiun.
