Zumstein and his reindeer, however, did not stop in Salem, but went directly to his ranch near Redmond, where he al ready had three of the animals. The reindeer were flown by plane south to Seattle where they arrived about 4 p.m. Sat urday and finished the journey by truck. They are all young, the oldest of the adults are only two years and Zumstein has several fawns in the group. Zumstein plans to make com mercial use of the reindeer, especially at the Christmas sea son, with appearances at shop ping places and in parades, mainly In California, Oregon and Washington. Mrs. Zumstein met her hus band in Seattle. On the Redmond ranch the Arctic animals are feeding contentedly on Imported moss. The moss is a staple diet for the reindeer ana about a ton of it was brought , out on the plane, but Zumstein said they would soon become accustom ed to Oregon livestock feeds. The reindeer were purchas ed at Nome for about $200 a head after they were corraled near Golovin, 120 miles south east of Nome. The animals will be acclim ated in a high fenced enclosure on the Redmond ranch. Haunted House Ghost Very Real Baraboo, Wis., M5) Four .

Bean Growers Get Relief Bean growers were in a much happier frame of mind today following excellent wea ther conditions over the week end which saw hundreds of pickers in the yards. For the most part the extra help resulted in the harvest ing of the beans that had ac cumulated on the vines be cause of rainy weather. In some instances would be pickers were unable to contact yards where help was needed and they returned to their homes in a frame of mind that was none too happy. It is possible that extra help will be needed later in the week, but at this time the em ployment office stated that the "regulars" were taking care of the stiuation in a fairly satisfactory manner. Many of the growers expressed- appreciation for the response of the extra workers who were able to salvage beans that otherwise would have gone to waste.
