O ra«r n No. 36 , 1917 All entire carloaaying honor to the men selected from the District o f Columbia for service in America’s National army raised for the battle for democracy. Washington, long used to glittering processions, opened its eyes and cheered itself hoarse at the spectacle. For two hours, while in other cities throughout the Nation other thousands moved over the first part o f the long road that may lead to French battle­ fields, Pennsylvania avenue heard the tramp o f marching men, the jingle of spurs and the rumble o f artillery. About 28,000 men, women and children passed a reviewing stand be­ fore the White House, where the Pres­ ident and his guests watched the parade. More than half o f the long line was in uniform. There were reg­ ulars from infantry, cavalry and artil­ lery regiments stationed near by, mar­ ines from the officers’ training camp at Fort Myer and hundreds o f Army and Navy officers attached to the de­ partments here. President Wilson himself, eyes to the front, stepping out like a freshly trained recruit, marched at the head of the long line, surrounded by a commit­ tee o f citizens which arranged the par­ ade. Behind him, in unbroken ranks, came most o f the members o f the sen­ ate and house, in such a tribute as they probably never have given on any occasion in the long years since this country became a nation. When he reached the White House the President left the ranks and took his place in the stand by Mrs. Wilson. It was the second time he had gone a-foot over Pennsylvania avenue. The first time when he led the preparedness parade before the United States went to war. At the head o f the senators marched Senators Nelson and Warren, o f the Union army, and Martin and Bank- head, who fought on the side o f the gray in the Civil War, and with them Senators Chamberlain, chairman o f the military committee, and Lodge, rank­ ing Republican of the naval commit­ tee. The house turned out hundreds o f its membership, headed by Speaker (Mark and "U ncle J o e " Cannon. Sen­ ators La Follette and Gronna were conspicuously absent. F. J. Canfield delivered 85 head of hogs to George Zimmerman at Carlton Monday, for which he received a total of $2035, the average weight being 179 pounds. All were Mr. Canfield’s own, and were raised on clover ami rape and finished with grain. W. R. Osborn, o f Amity, completed arrangements to install a five-ton-per- day canning plant at Toledo to handle the evergreen blackberry crop for this season. He has leased the Port of To­ ledo’s warehouse for six months, and next year will build a cannery and process both fruits and vegetables. Coos Bsy will entertain United States officials who are directing contracts for aeroplane stock. There are six mills in the county putting out spruce lum­ ber for airplanes and foreign govern­ ment inspectors have visited there fre­ quently to inspect the output. How­ ever, the coming of United States offi­ cials will be the first advent o f these men. Prominent ranchers from the Upper Deschutes section conferred Tuesday with District Attorney Dearmond and Sheriff Roberts at Bend, as to the best means o f ending stock rustling, which is reported on the increase in their section. The results o f the meeting were not made public, it being desired to give no warning to the cattle thieves. Two men were killed and two others sent to a hospital as the result o f a motor truck plunging from the Pacific Highway grade on top o f the Siskiyous near Ashland late Sunday night. The dead are Jack Robinson, of Portland, and MrDonald, whose given name and address were not ascertained. The men in the hospital are Greek laborers. All were employed in a grading camp on the highway, o f which Robinson was foreman. Practically all the hay in the west end o f Umatilla county is sold, accord­ ing to reports. Much o f it went at $16.50 a ton in the stack, regardless, in many instances, o f quality. With these inducements few farmers are holding. A large part of the hay is being held at Stanfield and will be fed there. Because o f the high price of hay many cattlemen, are selling heav­ ily and the possibility o f a beef short­ age this winter looms large. Dr. L. F.
