took it two days to get two and
onehalf miles. Pretty swift
traveling for mail matter.

Miss Ruby Shearer came up
from Portland the first of the
week for a visit with friends.
Tuesday she accompanied J. B.
V. Butler and family on a pleas
ure trip to Newport where they
will take on some of the color
imparted by the sun and the sad
sea waves. J. B. V. will not
need any color as he got a nice
lot in eastern Oregon recently,
but perhaps he thinks to mix it
with the ocean foam and sort of
soften the high lights.
Zook, the paper hanger will do
your painting.
A trip over the premises of J.
M. McDonald, the Rhode Island
Red man, shows what can be
done on a small piece of ground
such as we have around Mon
mouth. Besides having some of
the finest Reds in the country he
has a couple of fine strawberry
beds, one of which is just coming
into bloom for the second crop.
He has field corn that is over
eight feet in height and still
growing. Kale, potatoes and a
young prune orchard fill out the
remainder of his three and one-
half acres.
