WANT FRUIT CANNERY
Polk County Fruit Growers Would
Encourage Establishment of
Such Industry.
A meeting of the Polk County Horti
cultural Society was held in the
Courthouse last Saturday afternoon
at 2:15 o'clock. President H. S. Butz
presided. A goodly number of fruit
growers was present and much busi
ness of importance was transacted.
The most important action of the
society was the adoption of the
following resolution, offered by Wil
liam Grant, of Dallas :
Resolved, That the Polk County
Horticultural Society believes in a
strict enforcement of the law against
the sale of infected fruit, and would
encourage our Inspector to discharge
his duty without fear or favor, and
pledge him our support In all
legitimate attempts to enforce the law.
Whereas, Polk County is noted for
the abundance of small fruits and
vegetables, and that the present out
put can be so easily increased with
proper encouragement to meet the re
quirements of large canning interests,
Therefore Be It Resolved : 1st, That
the Polk County Horticultural Society
extend to capital looking for invest
ment along that line, an invitation to
come among us, and investigate this
field with an eye to business.
Second, That this society will offer
all proper encouragement to the end
that, in the near future, canning may
be engaged in, in Polk County, by the
proper parties with sufficient capital
to insure success.
Delegates to the State Horticultural
Society meeting, to be held in Port
land on January 8-10, were elected as
follows: Peter Kurre, of Inde
pendence; D. L. Keyt, of Perrydale;
O. H. Cobb, T. J. Hayter, John
Parker, James Boydston and R. L.
Chapman, of Dallas.
The following were elected to mem
bership in the county society : G. W.
Bowles, C. Risser, T. J. Hayter, J. M.
Walter, G. B. Nunn, John Parker,
N. F. Gregg, B. I. Ferguson and N. M.
Grant.
The officers for the ensuing year
are: H. S. Butz, president; B. I.
Ferguson, first vice-president; D. L.
Keyt, second vice-president; Peter
Kurre, third vice-president; R. L.
Chapman, secretary and treasurer.
The meeting adjourned to meet at
the call of the President.
R. L. CHAPMAN,
Secretary.
VOTE FOR PEOPLE'S CHOICE
Dr. Smith, of Umatilla, Says State
ment No. 1 Democrats Will
Vote for Bourne.
"I shall certainly vote for Jonathan
Bourne for United States Senator
when the Legislature takes a vote at
the session next month," said Dr.
C. J. Smith, Democratic State Senator
from Umatilla county, when In Salem
recently. "I signed statement No. 1
and do not see how any member of
the Legislature who signed that state
ment could think of voting for any
one but the man who received the
largest vote at the J une election.
"I understand that Senator Hedges,
of Clackamas, and Senator Mullt, of
Jackson, also signed statement No. 1,
and will vote for Mr. Bourne. They
are Democrats like myself. I do not
see that party lines are to be con
sidered where a member has pledged
himself to vote for the people s choice."
Senator Smith was In Salem to
attend a meeting of the State Board of
Health. Since his party is In the
minority, having only six Senators
out or 80, he is taking only a
spectator's Interest in the vigorous
fight that has been made over the
presidency of the Senate. When
reference was made to the suggestion
that the minority forces on the Re
publican side might join the Demo
crats and choose a president of the
Senate he laughed heartily.
"Why. in the last session," he ex
claimed, "there was no one who drew
party lines on us Democrats as
strongly as Senator Hodson and his
immediate friends. The Haines peo
ple always treated U3 as well as we
could expect I am not saying what
we Democratic Senators will or will
not do, but you can draw your own
conclusioBs." Oregonian.

PAPER CHANGES HANDS
Q. A. Qriswold and H. E. Starr Pur
chase Plant and Subscription
List ol Falls City Logger.
Falls City's weekly newspaper, The
Logger, was sold by Averill & Cham
berlain to G. A. Griswold and H. E.
Starr, Saturday. The new publishers
took possession of the property at
once. The name of the paper was
changed to the Falls City News, and
the first issue under the new manage
ment was printed Wednesday.
The new proprietors both being
actively engaged in other lines of
business have placed the management
of the paper in competent hands, and
will proceed immediately to overhaul
and enlarge the plant New material
will be added to the office, and a neat
and newsy paper Is promised to the
people of Falls City.
The enterprising citizens and busi
ness men of Falls City have long felt
the need of an up-to-date newspaper
in their rapidly growing town and
have pledged the new publishers their
loyal and enthusiastic support. The
appearance of tho News' advertising
columns this week proves conclusively
that the paper is appreciated, and that
a live newspaper will bo liberally
patronized by the business men of
Polk county's wide-awake lumber
town.
Tuberculosis in Cattle.
M. A. Cu Dallas, Oregon, wants to
know the symptoms of tuberculosis in,
cattle. The symptoms of cattle tuber
culosis are varied. Two animals with
tuberculosis may not show the same
symptoms. Some cases become thin
and rough inlappearance and have a
chronic cough or chronio diarrhoea,
a good appetite, but show that they
are in a debilitated condition, while
others may show no symptoms at all
but appear to be in fine condition but
have tuberculosis. The only reliable
way to tell whether a cow has tuber
culosis is to test her with a tuberculin,
which Is very accurate. The cow
which you describe has marked symp
toms of tuberculosis. We advise you
to have her tested with tuberculin.

Sue On a Hop Contract.
D. C. Baling, of Ballston, ' Polk
County, has boen made the defendant
In a suit filed by James and II. H.
Pincus, of Tacoma, to recover $2800
alleged to have been advanced on a
hop contract that was not fulfilled by
Saling. Teal & Minor, counsol for
the complainants, allege in their bill
that their clients entered into a con
tract with Saling for his entire crop
of hops, which was estimated to bo
about 40,000 pounds, at 15 cents per
pound, tho hops to be delivered in
good condition, free from mould and
olean. On this contract $800 was ad
vanced when it was made and later
the sum of $2800 was paid over by the
Pincus brothers, but when tho hops
were delivered, it is alleged, they were
found to be in bad condition. For that
reason the plaintiffs seek to have the
last named amount refunded. The
suit is filed In the United States
Circuit Court Oregonian.
MAKE HOME PLEASANT
Boys and Girls Will Not Go to City
If Farm Life Is Made
Attractive.
Allow your boys and girls to sub
scribe for good magazines and to buy
a new book occasionally. Have muslo
of some kind, and consider It a duty
you owe your children to give them
an education. It they have a talent
for music, give them muslo lessons;
if for drawing, give them lessons In
drawing; or if any of them show a
talent for any of the arts, cultivate
that talent to the best of your ability.
If you would have the farm home a
happy rendezvous, have it well
lighted ; oil is much cheaper than to
have your children wander off, you
know not where, for they will go
where It is bright and attractive.
Allow them to Invite their friends to
their home and assist In the entertain
ing. Do not call your children up in
the morning at four o'clock to feed
the horses or milk the cows; It does
not make the morning very attractive
for them, and in time they will dis
like the farm. Give them time to
live, and take time yourself to see a
pretty sunset, a bright flower by the
wayside, or listen to the happy notes
of the birds.
Unless the farm can be made a
happy meeting place, do not be sur
prised If the boys and girls turn their
faces toward the city, disgusted with
life on the farm. If they hear only
the song of work, work, work, from
sunrise until sunset it becomes
monotonos, and they boo that each
day brings them no nearer the goal
than the day before, bo they lose
interest and grow dissatisfied with
their daily duties and cares.
A holiday now and then, a pleasant,
cheerful greeting each morning, work
seasoned with a little sport all along
the way is cheaper than having your
children go to the city.
