"No Mother to Guide Her" Com
ing. Lillian Mortimer's great play,
"No Mother to Guide Her," will
be the attraction at the Opera
House next Wednesday, March
i?th. It is the largest and most
complete melodrama before the
public, contains liberal portions
ot good comedy and diarratic
thrills, and is constructed of the
material that appeals to theater
goers who admire sfmple virtues.
The villain can always be relied
upon to merit the honest hatred
of his audience, and the couaic
gentleman has iion-bound con
tracts to furnish a laugh every
thirty seconds. It is described as
being pure, clean and moral, ev
erything produced on . the stage
that is pictured n the billboards.
The company is unusually strong
and is headed by the charming
actress, Miss Jeanette Carew.
One of the pleasing features is
the large number of specialties
that are given. This is a play
that will please the ladies as well
as the gallery gods. Reserved
seat, sale opens Monday, prices
35c, 50c, 75c.
ABOUT FRUIT CANNERIES
Growth of Canning Industry in
Valley Discussed. Figures
Tell Story.
The growth of the fruit can
ning industry in Oregon has been
remarkable in the past year, and
the outlook is for a continued
growth in this direction.
In 1906 'there were four fruit
canneries in the Willamette Val
ley. In io7 there were seven.
In 1906 the combined capacity of
these canneries was 65,000 cases.
In 1907 it was 70,000 cases. -Io
the present year there are under
construction or fully planned
three more, making a total of
ten, and two ot last year's can
neries will double their capaci
ties. It is expected that this
year the output will be very large
with a capacity well above 150,
000 cases.
Canneries are now in operation
during the season at Ashland,
Grants Pass, Eugene, Salem and
Yoncalla, and the new canneries
are for Medford, Monmouth and
Newberg. Preparations are being
made for canneries at Woodburn.
Dallas, CorvaUis and Monoe,and
it is probable that others wiil be
erected at, Roseburg and West
Scio.
The Southern Pacific has fos
tered the cnuing business large
ly and to its efforts in part is due
the great development of the state
in this direction. It is stated by
officials of the road that hitherto
Oregon ha never shipped more
than 100 carloads ot Oregon can
ned fruits iii any one season. But
with fair crp conditions this sea
son it is expected that shipments
will amouni to 250 cars. One
official sayslhe thinks in five years
the state will be shipping 1,000
cars of canned fruits east. Ex.

Independence is to have a can
nery. At a rousing metting held
there a few days ago the commit
tee appointed to solicit stock re
ported it had raised $4200 of the
$5000 necessary to siablish a
cannery. Chairman Messner was
instructed to appoint committees
to see about securing a site. An
other meeting will be held next
Saturday, at which time a build
ing spot will be decided on, and
plans for the incorporation of the
company completed. As many
have subscribed small amounts,
intending to . subscribe more
should the plans develop, no
trouble is expected in quickly
raising the remaining $Soo.
