DAY
The encouragement received from
the different business men of the city
us well as citizens o f the community
has convinced the celebration com
mittee that they are warranted in go
ing even further thpn was at first
anticipated in arranging entertain
ment for the visitors here on July
Fourth.
Financial support is necessary to
stage a big celebration and the indi
cations are now that the funds need
ed will be forthcoming. This fact
has caused the committee to spend
mere for the fireworks for the day
and night than was at first expected
to be spent fo r the entire celebra
tion.
The fireworks have all ready been
ordered, and will consist) o f a display
lasting from an hour and a half to
two hours. It will be one o f the fin
es'. displays ever seen in this part of
the country.
The Estacada band is planning a
number o f trips during the time be
tween now and the Fourth for the
purpose o f advertising the show and
large posters will be out within the
ne::t two or three days, which will be
conspicuously placed throughout the
eastern part o f the county and on the
highways out from town.
The parade, judging from the num
ber who have pledged floats, will be
an interesting event. A fine program
o f sports is being arranged for the
entertainment o f those who enjoy
them, and a big double-header base
ball game will entertain the fans dur
ing the afternoon.
The street dance at night will be
ar. enjoyable event for everyone
wi.ether they dance or not. Good
music throughout the day will also
be a feature.

County Agent J. J. Inskeep recint-

here to handle orders coming from
Estacada for lime.
In field tests made on the George
and Harry Kohl farms at Logan, and
the Edward Shearer farm at Spring-
water, lime has been shown to be the
esential factor for the production of
alfalfa. The same is probably true
o f clover and detailed information
cun be secured from the county
agent’s office.
Ground limestone from the state
lime plant costs $5.95 per ton f. o. b.
Oregon City and $6.45 per ton f. o.
b. Estacada. An additional charge of
$2 per ton is made for bags which is
promptly refunded when the bags are
returned.

opponents. The game Sunday is lia
ble to be a close contest, some o f the
local fellows having expressed the
opinion that theer was not a better
team in the league than the Wash
ougal nine.
There will be several home games
now before the Estacada club goes
on the road again. On June 24 two
games are scheduled to be played on
the local field, and on July Fourth,
there will also be a double header if
present plans work out.
The Armory o f Portland has gone
to camp and will be away for two
weeks. The manager o f their club in
formed Estacada several weeks ago
that they would be unable to fill their
date here on the 24th, so a game with
an independent team was scheduled.
At a meeting of the league officials
Monday night it was agreed to substi
tute a team for the Armory for two
games, and this accounts for the dou
ble bill on the 24th.
On account o f rain last Sunday the
Barracks game was postponed and
the Barracks offered to come to Es
tacada on the Fourth. A game has
been scheduled for that date with
Boring, so two games will probably
be played during the celebration.
There will be at least three new
men in Estacada’s lineup next Sun
day. Reed, a new receiver, will come
out from Portland. Al. Weinel, late
of O. A. C., who played the third
sack for the frosh the past season,
will be in the lineup, and Art Free
man, an infielder from Twin Falls of
the Utah-Idaho league, arrived in Es
tacada Wednesday and will probably
play second base Sunday, Tony Bron
son going to shortstop.
Bill Fischer, who was with the club
every game played this year except
one, and who went to Hoquiam in
the Timber league last week, writes
that he may return here next week.

Mrs. Vida Stubbs and son Edward
