WALLPAPER
Perkins Pharmacy.
The people of Polk county are
showing the people of Marion
county somethings in the way of
improved roads that are worth
noticing. The road between
Dallas and Monmouth and Inde
pendence has been oiled all the
way, and the road from Indepen
dence to West Salem is oiled as
far as the Brunk farm, where it
meets the Salem-Iiickreall road.
Perhaps there are others. It is
planned to continue the oiling of
the Independence-West Salem
road clear to the latter place; to
the West end of the bridge across
the Willamette at Salem. This
will make the roads thus treated
much smoother for travel, and it
will make them dustless, a con
sideration of great comfort to
the traveling public, and espe
cially so to the farmers and oth
ers living along or near them.
For the residents along or near
the roads, it will make all the
difference between comfort and
cleanliness and rank discomfort
and dirt and diseare germs. A
hard surfaced highway would be
better and cheaper, in the long
run, than an oiled road; but an
oiled road is far and away ahead
of a streak of dust misnamed a
road. Statesman.
Three Cars of Juice
Mr. Pugh of Falls City, manu
facturer of loganberry juice, is
buying all the berries' available
in this neighborhood at three
cents per pound. He has just
received an order from San Fran
cisco parties for three carloads of
loganberry juice, and will hurry
shipments. Last year Mr. Pugh
sold one carload to the same
parties. They found a ready
market for the beverage, and
came back this season with a
much larger order, with a pros-
pect of following it with others, j
i Additional machinery was recent-'
j ly put in at the Pugh plant. ,
I Among those who sold their;
i crop to the Falls City man are i
j Mr. Weaver, who has two acres
I planted to loganberries on the
Nute Harris place, and Mr. Sie-
fert, who has something less
j than an acre. Other smaller yards
I are also sending their berries to
Mr. Pugh. Dallas Observer.
