The Orange of London, believ
ing that it will augur to the good
of all concerned, will hold a three
days’ picnic on the grounds of the
Calapooya Springs company com
mencing Thursday.
'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.”

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
