The drive for funds to insure the opening and operation of the Albany cannery this season has been resumed by committees made up of Albany men who are trying to put the coccunity over the top for the quota of $50,00C stock in the Oregon-Washington Canning and Preserving company. The committee met with the Al bany chamber of comiirce at a noon luncheon recently to discuss the matter. Canvassing among Albany business men was in pro gress during the day. In discussing the situation W'ii) L. Finch, who is here as fiscal agent of the canning company, said that about 100 people of this community hold stock in the Puyallup and Sumner Fruit Grow ers Canning company and they are to be given eight per cent stock in the new company in ex change tor the seven per cent stock of the old company. Mr. Finch states that the Al to iy cannery represents an in vestment of $125,000 and that the property will be forced to lie idle this year if growers of the com munity anil Albany men do not subscribe for enough stock to fi nance the operating expense of the cannery here this year..

There is also a small surplus of labor in this city, ac cording to Police Judge Earl Race who conducts a free employment bureau at his offices in the city hall. "I expected a few requests for pickers by this time," Judge Race said this morning, "but so far there hasn't been an application filed with me." Belief that berry picking acti vities will absdrb the 'small sur plus of labor in the city, was ex pressed by Judge Race. The few men whom he has been unable to furnish with work of some kind have been chiefly transients. The strawberry crop h? to be good, growers believe, and the goosberry yield will be fair. In consequence it is believed that scores or men and women will be given employment as pickers.

One would be placed between Umatilla and Boardman, another on the Oregon Trail between Union and Umatilla counties, a third to the north on the Oregon-Washington line and a fourth on the high way between Pilot and Heppner on the Oregon-Washington highway. . ..

Only good goods, fairly priced, can stand the spotlight of publicity. A merchant or manufacturer would not dare to adver tise merchandise that is poor in quality, poor in make or that will not give reasonable wear. The penalty of such tactics is too heavy. No goods and no business concern can thrive under the weight of public condemnation. A merchant places the whole reputation of his business at stake every time he advertises. Naturally enough, he is careful of what he says and when his statement is placed in the newspaper where everyone in town may read so that any untruth in it will be known to all of his employees and most of his friends then you may be sure he is doubly careful. When you buy advertised goods you get a bargain because they must be as advertised. So it pays you to read advertisements. Advertising protects you. Read the advertisements in this paper and get the best of the bargain.
