FIT UP SALES IIBLOCKEDBYCOLO SNAP, IS OiCAMI Indications that the December frosts will have no harmful effects upon the fruit farm sales Is apparent from the fact that real estate trans fers in orchard holdings are being consumated daily, as is shown by un interrupted business in the Marion county recorder's office. One of the largest real estate trans fers in Polk county took place De cember 28 when J. M. Card, promi nent hop grower of Dallas, purchased a 60 acre ranch from A. 8. Campbell. This farm is located near Dallas and is regarded as one of the finest or chard holdings in the state. Six acres of prunes on this place netted Camp bell more than $8000 last year and the new owner expects to realize an excess of that amount from this years crop. The trees were not damaged in the least by the recent low tempera tures, i Additional reports are being recelv ed from extensive growers and fruit experts near Salem relative to the in roads made upon next season's crop by the extreme weather conditions of mid-December. Luther J. Chapln. former county agriculturist, and now employed by the Salem Kings Pro ducts company, has carefully .Invest! gated several orchards near and finds that the damage has been very slight, especially in the , higher districts.

Wo. 48 East 84th street The new union was r I resented by Professors J. D. F rem ao D. S. Stair. Professor - Franklin - it. uiaaing. head of the department of sociollgy at Columbia, had objected to he union because of its attitude against strikes. holding that, if the profeaaor did u. intend to use this weapon, there wa no use of affiliating with the A. . L. "On the other hand," he declared if affiliation with the A. F. oi i seems to be a necessity, why not go fttl the way and remain free to strike? Professor Stair replied that ti sttlke was found inexpedient for (w. ers, and as such was definitely exclud ed. ' The strike, however, is only one oi the methods used by organized laboi. We place our reliance, instead, on ttw lorce of numbers and organization to educate nubile opinion," he said. Professor Stair declared the leaders of the federation tned to discourage the use of strikes by unions made up wholly or in part of municipal employ 's and added that more specific princl. oles would be adopted by the union when complete organization has been affected.

Our stores now cover 25 states and our organization known as a nation-wide institution. - :. The Penney system of directFactory to Consumer outletvia Penney stores has proven the ideal solution of the high cost of living. Arejrou profiting by it? Incorporated M With the replacement of . Deputy Warden John C. Talley at the peni tentiary by James W. Lewis, a well known Salem man, action toward pacing the prison administration on the same efficient basis as was the state hospital while under the super vision of Dr. R. E. L. Steiner, is seen by many. The appointment of Lewis, who is regarded as an expert on pris on affairs, to the post of deputy war den is considered to be a step away from the "gruff methods attributed to the state penitentiary, and toward a more "humane" nanaiing oi aiuura. When Dr. Steiner was. named suc cessor to Warden Stevens at the pen itentiary early last summer it was for the purpose of applying the same sys tematin methods he had used at the state hospital, and for the building of an efficient personnel, which It was felt, would be to the prison's advant age. The great nenem r. Bieinem advocacy of a "square deal" would be to such prisoners in whom could be awakened a new hope in life, and a willingness to assume the, responsibil ities of American citizenship, .was readily recognized. And it is the furtherance of this policy as was ex ercised with his patients, that the Lewis appointment was made by Dr. Steiner. ' Lewis is a man of quiet demeanor, but firm ; and it is such characters who are clean, square and kind, but with a quiet firmness that commands pbedlence and brings a cheerful re sponse to the - discipline necessary at all times, which. Dr. Steiner believes, will spell success for the Institution.
