FEHRUAHY 3, IMI ♦ OREGON WEATHER ♦ ♦ ♦ Tonight and Sunday, fair. ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦ ♦ GETTING THE BRINK HABIT The prune is no longer a lowly fruit. In the vernacular of the day. it has become a "peach," the lollapa- luxa of the tribe of Pomona, and for seven days—-count 'em—it is going to occupy the place of honor in the great state of Oregon. The gover nor says so in his proclamation. The prune growers say so and Oregon in dustry says so. Not that it is expect ed that enough prune« are going to be devoured in the seven days to re duce the supply to a point where it will balance with demand on a bet ter price ratio, but that it will be in troduced to many a citizen who does not now know it in its new station, and that the prune habit may become fixed and permanent. The prune campaign to be engi neered throughout the state will have a double purpose. While attractive prices are to be made for sale and shipment, it is hoped that the many and various ways in which this del ectable fruit may be prepared will give it a permanent place in every home and upon every menu. The prune is about the only object left that can get stewed without also vio lating the laws of the commonwealth and while a few years ago it never appeared except when it was stewed, now we find it served in about as many ways as there are cooks to serve. So to be in style, you must eat a prune three different ways three times a day for seven days Then you are supposed to have the habit. LIVING IN GRANTS PASS A traveling salesman who was in Grants Pass Friday said that there was no other town in the state of Oregon where goods were sold at the low values that were general 1 here He rather complained that this was so, and said that it gave him a case of the industrial blues after the hys- teria of high prices he found else where during the war period. While there was a general lowering of prices all along the line, he said that in Grants Pass prices had'not only been lower all the time, but that the merchants were among the first to reduce to a normal basis. Every visitor to Grants Pass, and every Grants Pass citizen who ha“ gone elsewhere for a time, k nows that it is true that local business houses did hold prices down when they were being boosted to the sky- on every pretext and on no pretext at all about everywhere else.

THE LEGISLATIVE Ml LI. A total of 573 bills have been in troduced In the state legislature. 354 in the senate and 319 in the house. Thirty-eight have passed both houses ready for the governor’s approval or veto. The governor has signed 18 bills, nine of each house, and has vetoed none. Eighteen bills have been tabled in the senate, an unpre cedented number. Rarely has the number tabled at any time exceeded three or four during a session. Some will never leave the table. Friday the house unanimously passed the Belknap bill prohibiting alien and disloyal persons teaching public schools, universities or stale colleges: it passed the bill banning punch boards, and killed the Dennis resolution requiring the highway commission to make all roads 16 feet wide. i The senate killed Eberhard's bin making every county a judicial dis- trict, which would have Increased the number of circuit judges in the state to 24. It also killed the Ellis bill for marking boundaries of un fenced lands. The senate passed the Norblad bill for organization of logged off lands improvement districts, and bills in creasing salaries of certain Multno mah county officials and affecting salaries of certain state officers. Whether the Roosevelt highway bill passes the house depends upon deals between the coast and eastern Oregon representatives. This Monster Was Battler. The curators of the Launceston and Taacantan museums have presented to the Royal Society of Tasmania the pre liminary account of a nearly complete skeleton of a gigantic extinct monster, recently discovered in the pleistocene bed« of Tasmania. The animal was as large as the I largest existing rhinoceros. The new discovery shows clearly that it was a rhinoceros-like animal, with a skull built for aggressive warfare, and at least one powerful horn on the snout. Evidence of the gigantic battles tn which this animal engaged Is to be found tn the complete smashing and partial mending of the collar-bone, and In the crushing and subsequent repair of the bone» of the nose and snout. » the Churches Church of the Brethren Preaching service at 11 o'clock.
