it is no trouble to grow almond
trees in this vicinity, provided,
of course, that you select the
right soil and are particular as to

Man Who Feared Banks Loses
Hoarded Gold.
Secreting a pot containing be
tween $1600 and $1800 in an out
house on his residence property
and having it stolen was the re
cent experience of John Maxwell,
who lives a mile south of Irving,
where the road turns west to
ward Fern Ridge.
Roy Withers, a youth residing
near there is being examined by
District Attorney Brvson in Eu
gene this afternoon, having been
summoned to appear before that
official to tell what he knows of
the theft, it being suspected that
he is implicated in it.
It is learned that young With
ers told a number of people in
that vicinity that he took the
money but that he has replaced
some of it. It is also said that
two other persons got a portion
of the money and have left the
community.
Maxwell, who is a pioneer res
ident of the county, is said to
fear the safety of the banks and
has secreted large sums of mon
ev about his residence for several
years past,
