'I'he widow of General I.ogan says: “ The changing styles are not to be charged up to woman’s love of beauty, but to her willing ness to be led docile and sheep-like by commercialists who prey upon her. Women are the befooled vic tims of commerce.” These are the days when the city should be pressing its street and other improvement work; when private citizens who contem plate making improvements this year should, if they can see their way clear, begin at once; when ground should be broken for the large addition to the west side public school building. Why wait until the sultry August days or the rainy fall season? There are too many men idle here now, who need work, and the effect of this is in the air and helps to swell the cry of hard times. The work of production is not slackened in the least: the mines are doing their part superbly; the fields and or chards are promising fairly well; trade should be better than before, for more supplies are needed; if this can be supplemented with the usual improvements, the town will be filled with gladness a month hence, and people will be repeat ing: “There is no other place for a greater city within the upper Willamette valley.” CO O L Do not suffer by the heat when you can buy .a parasol «at Va off the regular price.

Tickets Given On The Piano Contest Visit to Row River Valley. The Leader family spent Sunday the guests of Dr. and Mrs. R. Mc- Cargar on theii pretty farm home near Dorena, six miles east of Cot tage Grove. Their farm nestles cosily at the base of old Cerro Gordo mountain and all crops there promise an abundant yield. Dr. McCargar is a retired dentist of Red Bluff, California, and while he has spent but little more than one year on his ( )regon farm he and his sons are making good pro gress. They have a good sized flock of goats, three milk cows, quite a number of Poland China pigs, three horses and 1IX) laying Plymouth Rock liens. < »lie of the greatest attractions about the place is two Concord or Isabel grape vines, the stocks of which are as large as a mature apple tree, while they have a spread over ail arbor fully 50x100 feet and these vines annually produces from SOU to 201 Ml pounds of grapes. These Dr. and Mrs. McCarger manufacture principally into sweet grape juice, a sample of which we found a most delicious and refreshing drink. There are numerous springs on this farm and with plenty of fruits and berries, it seems little more could be desired. After a splendid dinner, at the close of a most interesting and pleasant day, the drive home in the cool evening along the banks of Row river by the fertile farms of Hamilton and Robert Veatch, Felix Currin, Mrs. Ida Stocks, and John Sprav, con cluded a most enjoyable trip. In order to give his family better edu cational advantages, Hr. McCar gar offers to sell his farm and ac cept as part payment thereon, de sirable residence property in Cot tage Grove.
