citizenship. It is a program of

teach the youth of today con

est and impartial administration,
responsive to the yill of the
people.
More than 1800 boys to date

Mt. Angel George Schmidt
chairman of the Red Cross drive
made his report at the Business
Men s club meeting and lunch
eon, stating a little more than
the quota for this district was
received. But because some out
lying districts were so far short
of expectations, the Mt. Angel
town bore the largest share of
funds collected.
James Anderson made a re
port on the Flax Festival com
mittee meet. The club at pres
ent believes it will put the fes
tival on themselves instead of
hiring a promoter. Too, they are
planning on giving a large prize
with the sale. of buttons, prob
ably an automobile.
Louis Schwab, chairman on
sports, revealed that a town
team was chosen at the Sunday
afternoon practice game. Prac
ticing will continue all week and
the opening game will take place
next Sunday. The ball club is
considering the purchase of some
bleachers for the ball park, and
E. B. Stolle made a motion that
the Business Men's club advance
$300 to match a similar dona
tion from the city for these
bleachers. Some business firms
have donated the use of their
trucks to haul the bleachers.
Louis Schwab said the new
fire truck is expected here next
Monday, and suggested that
should the truck arrive a joint
celebration of the arrival of the
new truck and the opening of
the ball season be held on Sun
day. O. L. Withers, chairman on
the cancer drive, asked all
business houses to place milk
bottles in their buildings to re
ceive donations. No definite
quota is set for Mt. Angel, but
believes that a $300 sum would
be a suitable amount for here.
A house to house canvas was
suggested if for no other reason
than to remind citizens of the
present cancer drive. Walter
Smith introduced Mrs. Simon
who is opening a new dress shop
in the building formerly occu
pied by the Francis Schmidt Red
and White store. Mrs. Simon
said she expected to have her
opening day on Saturday April
19. .

Ronde agency was in the mop
ping up stage but stated that
another fire had broken out
r.ear Nashville.
The Nashville fire started
Monday and was roughly esti
mated to have reached 100 acres
Tuesday. Because of the fact
that contact had not yet been
made by radio with fire fighters
a more exact estimale of the
size of the fire could not be
made.
Principle loss in the 300-acre
fire was to green tree reproduc
tion which was swept up in the
blaze that raced through dried
fern. The fire was on Crooked
Creek about five miles north of
the Grand Ronde agency.

Polk Continuing
Airplane Dusting
Dallas Plans for airplane
dusting hairy vetch and Aus
trian peas have been started by
the Polk county dusting coop
erative, states W. C. Leth, Polk
county agent.
Farmers who dusted last year
received a return on the aver
age of about $23.50 per acre as a
result of dusting. This fully jus
tifies a comprehensive dusting
program for the hairy vetch and
Austrian pea acreage of the
county, further states Leth.
Airplane dusting such as is
planned by the Polk County
Dusting Cooperative is done on
an area basis, and control there
fore should be more effective
than when individual farmers
within the same area dust at
different intervals.
The Polk County Dusting Co
operative is an enterprise en
tirely developed by Polk county
farmers as a result of a recom
mendation at the Farm Pro
gram Conference held over a
year ago.
All directors of the associa
tion from last year were re
elected this year, and officers
are as follows: Virgil Heider,
president,; Harold Elkins, vice
president; W. C. Leth, secretary
treasurer. Other directors are
Charles Bowman, Robert Farm
er, and Clarence Primus.
