This will mean tha potatoes in Portland will sell for about five cents apiece, as the average potato weighs about half a pound. In Pendleton the highest retail price is from X 1-2 cents to 7 cents a pound. The reason for the shortage, say mer chants, is that Oregon had its shortest crop of potatoes this season and this, being followed ty the freezing of much stock dining the extreme cold weather, cut the available supply to le.ss than a quarter cf the normal.

A Continous Parade of New Apparel IS CONSTANTLY PASSING "iN REVIEW. The garment section on the balcony is indeed a show place for an ever growing throng of thrifty women interested in this style display, which continually shows the most c ever garments fresh from the New York markets. Absolutely new merchandise for your consideration is always the rule at Penney stores. Many a woman has been disappointed when after partly making a selection and then going home to think it over, came back only to find someone else had been struck with the exceptional value in style and fabric, at the low cash prices at which we sell and had decided immediately to buy. It's this very condition that keeps our displays "ahead of the ba nd" at all times. Quality and low prices makes for rapid turn overs and quick sales enable us to buy and sell at the very lowest prices. SPECIAL EASTER SHOWINGS Of clever new models in the latest approved fabric creations as color ful and refreshing as spring itself go to make up the groups of new suits, dresses, skirts and blouses se lected to make Pendleton's Easter parade equal that of cities many ti mes the size of ours.
