GRADING JOB ON
COAST HIGHWAY
COSTS $100,000
Portland, tPt The tat high
way commission, at a special meet
ing here Thureday, uathorlxed one
mile of grading on the Oregon
coast highway In Douglas county
at a cost of $100,000. The unit will
be north of Gardiner and will be
financed on a co-operative basis.
The commission received assur
ances that Douglas county will
contribute 2O.O0O, the road district
at Gardiner will contribute $5,000
and as these offerings are on a 25
er cent basis it will mean the cost
of the unit will be $100,000. Con
struction at that point Is extremely
heavy, commissioners said, as most
of the road will have to be blasted
out of solid rock.
Bids for this project will be ad
vertised at the March meeting and
work probably will start in early
summer.
Indian paintings on a cliff near
the John Day highway, east of
Dayvllle, will be preserved. These
owned by the Eastern Oregon Land
paintings are a part of property
company. The land company Thurs
day deeded to the state, through
the commission, one and one half
acres, an area sufficient to pre
serve the markings of the aborig
ines. The paintings are several
"miles from the picture gorge which
la at the head of the Oorge lead
ing to the world famous fossil beds
of the John Day country.
To eliminate two bad curves on
the cratCT lake highway near
prospect, the commission ordered
a project of one half mile grading,
bids to be opened at the March
meeting.
Rejection of the low bid of the
Willamette Construction company
on the Nlmrod-Belknap section of
the McKenzle highway was decid
ed the big bond was declared for
feited and the work will be re
advertlsed at the March meeting.

UMPQUA VALLEY
PRUNE GROWERS
TO CUT ACREAGE
Roseburg, Ore., ifly Umpqua val
ley prune growers are advised to
plant no more orchards and to
eliminate such existing orchards as
produce leas than one ton of dried
fruit per acre in a report adopted
by the Douglas County Horticul
tural society at the annual outlook
conference held at Sutherlln. .
The society each year appoints
committees to investigate general
conditions affecting each variety of
fruit, taking Into consideration the
national agricultural outlook re
port and all available marketing
Information.
More than three-fourths of the
world's production of 'dried prunes
is in the three Pacific coast states,
the report states. The 1929 esti
mated world production was only
292,000.000 pounds or 55 per cent
of the three year average from 1926
to 1929 or under 50 per cent of the
1927 output of 598,000,000 pounds.
The Pacific Noruiwest, it is esti
mated, produced 72,000,000 pounds
of which 60.000.000 pounds were
grown in Oregon and 20,000.000
pounds of this state's crop came
from the Umpqua valley. In Cali
fornia the report states a moderate
business Increase is expected until
1931 when acreage and production
in all coast states will likely be
come about stationary. European
crops, it is estimated are decreasing
and will continue to decrease for
several years.
Foreign markets are becoming in
creasingly Important for Pacific
coast dried fruits and 50 per cent
of the output for several years has
oeen exported.
The Umpqua valley It is stated
has about 11,000 acres, in prunes
producing on an average approxi
mately 2,000 pounds per acre.
somewhat higher than the average
ior tne state or Oregon.
Since the cost of production de
pends very largely upon the yield
per acre, the recommendation is
made in the report that unless an
orchard will produce one ton or
more of dried fruits per acre, it
should either be brought up to that
point or eliminated. .
Prune growers are also urged
through soil management, pruning
and fertilization to make every ef-
iort to increase the size of the
fruit, in order to obtain the higher
prices offered by buyers for the
larger sizes.
Development of a greater mar
ket for canmVl green fruit is also
urged and encouragement is being
given local canneries in an effort
to build up a larger market for the
canned products.
In keeping the recommendations
of the federal farm board the
county horticultural society urges
that the production be kept within
the bounds of consumption de
mands and that, therefore, there be
no further expansir, rf the prune
business in any variety.
The recommendatiijii also Is made
that more efficient and modern
merchandising methods should be
adopted and that federal grades
should be established and that an
advertising funds should be cre
ated, possibly by the levy of a quar
ter cent per pound on all fruit sold
to the paekers. '

Discovery Opens Up Catarrh
Stuffed Nostrils In 3 Minutes

End Loathsome Catarrh With Opex and Get Rid of
Disgusting Mucus Forever
30 Days Free
Catarrh, one of the most loath

wicked, vicious, persistent pests
that multiply rapidly and by dig
ging into and devouring the tender
membrane cause soreness, swell
ing, inflammation and mucous dis
charges. A few years ago. Catarrh was con
sidered incurable, because no one
was clever enough to get a formula
that would spread over the mem
branes of the nasal tract a purify
ing substance in which catarrh
germs could not exist.
But Opex changed all that and
now all you have to do to get rid of
catarrh is to spray on Opex and
send the germs to eternity.
Just note the picture showing
how Opex puts catarrh out of busi
ness. See the steam-like emoke go
ing in one nostril and out the other.
when you use Opex you see the
healing, purifying vapor as fine as
smoke coming thru the nostrils
and it will come thru no matter
how stuffed up they are.
That's the way to end catarrh
and to lessen those annoying, ring-
