Last Tuesday ev ening E. if, Swanson and wife drove into Dallas to attend a meeting. It was the first day of the fair. When they were ready to start home later in the evening, Mrs. Swanson noticed some queer object in the back of the car and called her husband's atten tion to it. Upon investigation by Mr. Swanson it was discovered to be one of their flock of fine Plymouth Rock hens, "Biddy" having evidently found a resting place on the back of the ear before their start into town, coming in, as it were, to see the coun ty fair. , Thomas Bowman with two doe yearlings swept the boards at the fair with first and second prizes and the doe grand championship FRANCE'S PRUNES FAIL INSTEAD OF 25,000 TONS, 1916 CROP IS 1,100.

Two cables that filtered through the French censor to the Call and Post of San Francisco give the 191(i French prune crop as 1,100 and 4,000 tons respectively. The normal crop is 'between 20,000 and 27,500 tons. A few days ago the San Francisco pa per published a story that the French crop was a failure and the southern city's dealers immediately became in terested. In answer to a query the confirmation of the story was receiv ed in the following cable: "We have investigated and agree with youi The crop is a total loss." The first cable received was from Paris, the second from Bordeaux. A. C. Peterson, manager of the lo cal branch of the J: K. Armsby Pack ing company, said today ubat the knowledge that the French crop was short had been known for some time but he doubted whether the entire crop was a loss, despite tne t an s story. The French prune is the petite prune, raised extensively in Califor nia but very little in Oregon. If any one is helped California growers will lie. But with the small foreign de mand, the difficulty of exchange and the war it is not likely tthat the French crop loss will react very fa- orably in the United States. "It is not a question of what France would normally need but what she will take. A loss of 24.000 tons might mean but a very small proportion of that amount ordered here. However, it may help the Oregon nmiKet. To Dedicate W. O. W. HalL f.rinnville camD. number 128 will dedicate its new hall Saturday in.. Oetnher 14. Head Consul 1 I.

As Regard Arrest. "After t?ie boroe is stolen: lock the bam" is a trite saying that i characteristic of humanity. Satuc-a- Jen. of the Falls City New asks 'When" in regard to arrests of law violators. The item rounws. n A 10.12- an ordinance to regulate the speed of automobile ticularly North Main, it was unlaw ful to exceed ten miles an (hour. That the public peace and safety demanded its immediate passage was attested by the emergency clause. Last spring, after an accident, another and more drastic one was passed for the public peace and safety. Has there ever been any effort made to safeguard tlhe public? The Oregon Farmer's Duty. An Oregon Farmer contributor thus States the purposes that should con trol the farmers of Oregon: To grow as good fruit as can be grown anywhere on earth, and bet ter than most sections' can grow. To have roads so good that we clan haul as much at one load as we now haul in two loads, and do it with more comfort. To encourage the preservation of the forests so that these forests will hold the snows that furnish water for irrigation, and thus prevent floods in the lower valleys by the sudden melt ing of the snows and rushing of the waters toward the seas. To be broad enough to see the good in all countries with no less love for our own. To be just enough to acknowledge the rights of others, even when they conflict with our own. To become so well organized that we can obtain our rights, if others fail to grant them. To grow a class of men and women that will be as noted for their ex cellence of character as our fruit is noted for its beauty. To make our homes places of health, happiness and love. We know this can not be done in a day, a month, or a year; but if we hold the ideal steadily in mind we will be surprised at the rapidity of approach toward it. TOWN TOPICS Dr. R C.
