Oregon Fruit in Demand
Robt. C. Paulus, sales mana­
ger for the Oregon Growers Co­
operative Association, writing
from New York City where he
has been for some time in the
interests of the association,
states tnat on account of the
quantity of fruit to be handled
by the association this year, the
best and most desirable buyers
in the country are eagerly seek­
ing business with the Oregon
Growers. This is welcome news
to the association members, but
will be a littledisquietingtotho.se
who for one reason or another,
are holding aloof from the organ­
ization. Mr. Paulus is most en­
thusiastic over the prospect for
the coming year.
White Wing Squad Wanted
Several very pointed remarks
lave been passed lately about
he untidy condition of the paved
lection of Broadway, I he mat­
ter is respectfully put to the
nayor and council, and we sug­
gest a good sweeping and flushi­
ng would make a wonderful
mprovement. A general clean
ip day might also be appointed
n the near future, as in other
;owns, and if the refuse is piled
ip conveniently, the city might
lo the hauling away.
LENT
Yesterday was Ash Wednesday
the first day of the ecclesiastical
penitential season of Lent which
lasts until Easter Day. It will
be observed by the faithful of
the Roman, Episoopal and Luth­
eran communions. Lent affords
a great spiritual opportunity and
is a means to an end, and its val­
ue can only be estimated by
those who use it as such.
COMMUNITY CLUB
It will be stock breeders’ night
at the next meeting of the Com­
munity Club, on February 27th.
E. E. Favell the editor of the
Western Farmer, will speak on

ty Agricultural Agent Scott is
