Basler, auditor, and police Judge, 702 BUT When sugar beets have been train ed; to grow as large as that tuber in the window at the Grants Pass Hard ware store, several more factories will have to be constructed right here to care for the product of , the, soil. The root In' question weighs. 184 pounds,, with several pieces broken from it, having tipped the scales at over 200 pounds when first taken from the soil on the Rlggs ranch near Glendale. It does not happen to be a sugar beet, however, but lo cally Is known as the "old man of the Ground" grows a trailing vine and of a wild plant of the morning glory family, of which the sweet potato is also a member. The "old man of the Ground," It Is the tuberous root while Immense tubers have been found before, the one from the Rlggs ranch has the record beaten for size. If It was a sugar beet of Us size and' of the quality that Is grown In the Rogue valley, It would produco about 40 pounds of the sweetness.

The boys were Trevls Reynolds and Manning Bowdon, and the complaint lodged against them wua signed by J. E. Peterson, who alleged that they had entered a house that was under his care aud had extracted therefrom the faucets aud other brass fittings from the toilet. In the first com plaint entered by Mr. l'etersou he had Included the' name of Loron Ruth, but this proved a case of mistaken Identity, Bowden having been the second boy, Instead 'of Ruth, Impll cated with Reynolds. When the boys appeared before the Judge, Ruth was vindicated by the statements ot oth ers, and the complaint against him was dismissed. Reynolds and Bow don admitted the pilfering, and the Judgment of the court Included the repair ot the damage done the prop erty. The boys are also to attend church at least once each Sunday for a year, and must be In their places at Sunday school every Sunday. They must also be at home every night by nine o'clock. Failure to meet any ot the conditions Imposed, or the filing of another complaint against the boys, will automatically bring about a sen tsnc to the state reform school at Salem. tj :l Four ot the sextette ot boys who were charged by Mrs. E. E. Taylor with having entered her home and taken therefrom certain randies and other eatables were sentenced this morning to six months In the reform school at Salem. The four were Elmer Richardson, Francis Blevtns, Lem Patterson and Ted Overstreet. They were placed under parole to T. Y. Dean, bailiff of the circuit court, how ever, and pending their good be havior will be allowed to remain at home. The other two boys named in !the complaint, Archie Wycoff and Ter rlll Sorenson, were discharged by the court . Wheel Baremeters. j What Is known as the wheel barom eter is an lngenlua variation of Torrl celll's Idea. This barometer was In vented by Robert Hooks, probably the greatest "philosophical mechanic'' of bis day. It is Intended to Indicate the weather without observing the mer cury Itself. There Is the osusl tube, but It Is bent at tbe bottom into a snort leg. In this leg' a little glass float resta upon the surface of tbe mercury. A cord attached to tbe float passes over the pulley. The pulley Is furnished with a pointer that moves around tha dial, tbe moving agency be ing the rising or falling mercury, which lifts or lowers-the float.
