POLK COUNTY ROADWAY

Only One Supervisor Absent lom
Iieetures Given By Agricultural
College Expert.
The two days' school in highway
construction for the benefit of the
road supervisors of Polk county held
in the Court house Monday and
Tuesday was a big success. Every
supervisor in the county was present
with the exception of one who was
sick and unable to leave home. Er
nest F. Ayres, the Agricultural col
lege roadway expert from Corvallis,
delivered interesting and valuable
lectures which were eagerly listened
to, His remarks were illustrated by
means of diagrams on a blackboard
in a graphic manner. The school was
organized by County Judge Coad and
the commissioners for the purpose
of improving the methods of work
ing the roads in this county and it
is expected that good results will
fojlow. " ... ...... v - -. ,
Professor Ayres, accompanied by
Commissioners Petre and Riddell,

afternoon, where practical demon

DALLAS WINS EASY CONTEST
WITH SILVEKTOX.
locals Pile I'p Store of 44 to 13 in
Contest at Armory; Visitors Beat
en From the Start.
With the score of 44 to 13 against
them, bedraggled and spattered with
great gobs of woe, the "Pride 'of the
Waldo Hills" hiked back to their
bailiwick, who's other name is Sil
verton, last Sunday morning after a
short session with Dallas' unbeatable
basket ball quintette in this city Sat
urday night. There be those, Hora
tio, who nursed the fond belief that
Silverton was coming over this way
to do things to Dallas and they opin
ed that for once at least, the bloody
scalps of the local aggregation would
dangle at the belts of the Silverton
crowd. But, alas and also, alack.
Gadzooks, likewise forsooth. By my
halidom, tho' they be lusty varlets
they made not so much as an im
pression on the Dallasites. The en
tire bunch, from Ned (otherwise
Peebo) Shaw, down to the scrappy
lad who dispenses goobers at five
cents per, everybody took a fall out
of the Waldo Hills combination and
they never had a look in. The lo
cals simply walked all over them and
did it without exertion.
The game called out a good crowd
but, before the game had gone two
minutes. It was seen that the visitors
were out of their class. They are
a lively bunch but they couldn't con
nect with the locals and faced de
feat from the start. At the end of
the first half the score stood 26 to
7 against 'em and the second half
only added to the agony.
Who's the next?
HIGH" LOSES TO NEWBEUU
Local Basket Ball Team I Beaten By
Score of 19 to 9.
The Dallas High school team went
to Newberg last Friday night for a
game with the high school players
of that place, which resulted in a
victory for the Quakers by a score
of 19 to 9.
The schedule for the Southern Or
egon trip of the local team of High
school tossers has been finally ar
ranged, after much difficulty and cor
respondence, and after the journey
had been practically abandoned, ow
ing to the fact that the Eugene team
backed out at the last moment on
the plea that the terms were too high
to make expenses. When the man
ager of the Dallas team asked them
to make an offer they refused, which
gives the boys here the impression
that the Eugene team ' Is afraid to
play them.
The team will leave here Wednes
day morning, and games will be
played according to the following
schedule:
Hoseburg, Wednesday, February
21.

ARTI8ANSMNITIATI0N
Six New Members Received Into
Fellowship of Local Assembly Last
Monday Night.
Dallas Assembly No. 46, United Ar
tisans, held a very successful initia
tion last Monday night at the regular
meeting in the Woodman Hall, the
attendance being unusually large. The
following new members were in
ducted into the order with the usual
impressive ceremonies: J. C, Uglow,
Mr. and Mrs. L. D. Brown, Miss Pearl
Owings, Mrs. William Schoel and Miss
Sadie Lynn.
Following the initiation, an elabo
rate banquet was spread, and the
remainder of the evening was enjoy
ably spent with music, dancing and
games.
Out of Town A'l.silors.
Among the visitors from out of
town assemblies were: Mrs. Burch,
master artisan Rickreall assembly,
and Mr, Burch; Cleve Burch, form
erly of Dallas but now of Hillsboro;
and Mr. and Mrs. H. C. Seymour, of
Rickreall assembly.
The Dallas assembly has Introduc
ed a new idea in regard to the du
ties of its committee appointed to
look after the sick. This committee
consists of Mrs. B. E. Nevel, J. E.
Miller and Mrs. E. N. Hall, and it
will look after not only the sick or
distressed members of the assembly
but all others that may be brought
to their attention.
TO ADVERTISE FOR BIDS
Council Getting Heady To Carry Out
"Tians For Macadamizing Twenty
Blocks of City Streets.
The regular semi-monthly meeting
of the city council was held Alonday
evening. The question of preparing
for the contemplated street improve
ments to be made this summer was
brought up and the city auditor was
ordered to advertise for bids for the
construction of the macadamizing
decided upon, which includes about
2 0 blocks.
Another matter that engaged the
attention of the city fathers for a
while was the protection asked for by
the local merchants against hawkers,
auctioneers, peddlers, etc., and an or
dinance will be drafted and passed
for the purpose of raising the licenses
on all included in that class of tran
sient dealers.
Complaint was made that the fill
on North Main street, between Acad
emy street and the LaCreole Bridge,
was too narrow, and it was referred
to the street committee for considera
tion and action.
POLK COUNTY HOP ROOTS
ARE BEST FOR PLANTING
Horst Brothers Send Ijirgo Consign
ment By Express to Sacramento
Valley Ranch.
A fact in relation to hop growing
that Is not generally known was re
called last Saturday morning when
a truck drove up at the depot with a
load of hop roots consigned by ex
press to E. C. Horst, Sacramento,
California, from the big hop fields of
Hoist Brothers, near Independence.
The superiority of the Polk county
grown roots over that of the state to
the south is known among the large
growers and the roots were shipped
from here because they will produce
a better plant that can be raised from
the California plants.
The lot was composed of 31 sacks,
or enough to plant about 30 acres.
On arrival at their destination, they
will be planted out In nursery rows
where they will be allowed to stay
for about six weeks. At that time
they will be taken up and will be
set out in the field where they are
to stand. Many of them had already
thrown out vigorous young shoots
and will yield a fair crop of baby"
hops this Reason.
