Newspaper Page TextFRIDAY, .rf.U 5, 1911 WEEKLY ROGUE RIVER COURIER run: kivkn Scrawberrles Fooled Her John Taylor, living on M street, in the southeast part of town, has ripe Btrawberrles In his patch. The ber ries, which are of the Gold Dollar tarlety, were ripening on the Tines all last week. One lady who saw the berries remarked ' to Mrs. Taylor, "That must have been a difficult Job to tie all those berries on, those vines." On examining the vines, how ever, she found that though strange, it was nevertheless true tbat the ber ries were growing and not tied to the vines. C FX K l IK ATE SlATTSlXfH BIRTHDAY OF JOHN PATRICK COUNTY TREASURERS REPORT For SI n Made of Hard, Stiff Wire, of Honest Quality t40 - Woven-Wire Fences must be heavy, as they have to turn animals by the sheer strength of the wire. Why? A fence with barb3 is protected from excessive pressure because the animal fears the barbs. Remove the barbs and the greatest strength of the animal is thrown upon the fence. Hence its wires must be larger and stronger. Therefore, to have a longlife woven-wire fence you must have a heavy fence. Among the valuable features that distinguish American Fence is the Hinged-Joint (patented). We back this feature with all our experience as the largest makers of fence in the world. Under side stress and strainthe resilient Hinged Joint yields to pressure and quickly returns to its old form without bending or breaking the stay wires, the strain being taken up by the heavy horizontal bars. The real test of a fence is the service you get out of it. Test, judge and compare American Fence under any and all conditions, and you will find that the steel, the structure and galvanizing are equal in durability, strength and efficiency to the hardest usage. If you want the best all-round farm fence on the market, get our No. 1846 AMERICAN, which has 13 lateral wires, Is 46 Inches high, has a No. 9 top wire and weighs 10 pounds to the rod. We sell this particular fence for only forty-eight cents per rod, which is about the same price you would pay for the common, smooth wire In rolls ($4.80 per 100 pounds). We also have the BEST and CHEAPEST RABBIT FENCE. . On the market. Come In and let us show you the fence and talk the mat ter over with you Rogue River Hardware Co. (The Big Red Front.) More than 60 persons gathered at the Newman Methodist Episcopal chuch Tuesday evening to help cele brate the sixty-sixth birthday anni versary of John Patrick. The ar rangements for the party were In the hands of the Ladies' Aid of the church and they are deserving of much credit for the thorough success and enjoyment of the evening. Old fashioned games, such as the older people present had played in their childhood, were entered into with zest and enthusiasm unequaled in any of the younger circles of the so cial world. The old and always ex citing game of "hunt the thimble" was played with a musical accom paniment, keeping the "children" In a high state of excitement through cut the play. No children under 20 years or age were in attendance. Mr. Patrick was presented with a handsome rocker, the gift of the la dies of theachurch, while the gen tlemen presented him with a gener ous silver offering. The presenta tion speech was made by Mr. Her rick, of the Grants Pass Banking ft Trust company, and he told In an In teresting manner the pleasure It af forded the people of the church to have this opportunity of expressing their gratitude and appreciation of the faithful services of Mr. Patrick for so many years. Mr. Patrick re sponded, expressing gratitude to the friends who had celebrated his an nlversary In; a manner which would always be remembered as one of the most enjoyable events of his later years. Refreshments of Ice cream and cake were served, after which another surprise was in store for the gueBt of honor, when he was pres ented with huge birthday cake, con talnlng his name and age. This was presented by A. B. Cornell on be half of the company and was ac companled by a short speech by that gentleman, after which a shower of post cards was tendered by the guests. One of the extremely enjoy able features of the evening's enter tainment was the reading by Mrs. 1,11a Harper, delivered In her usual charming manner. The large crowd in attendance will long remember this event as one of the pleasantest of their experience, where love and good comradeship reigned supreme, and were the ruling spirits of the evening.

Two boys, Gei.rge Thrasher and T. J. Snderson. are the principals In the trouble. It is contended by the Thrasher lad that he and Anderson found the claim while prospecting as partners; that they had been at the work together for sometime previous to the rich dis covery; that now the Anderson boy and Anderson's father claim the en tire property and that he (Thrasher) la being deprived of his share in the property. The matter got into the courts, a receiver was appointed, the Andersons refused, it is alleged, to turn the property and bullion over to the receiver, contempt proceed ings resulted and were heard yester day before Judge Calkins, and taken under advisement by the court. However, the Andersons yesterday agreed to turn the property over to the receiver and further agreed that all bullion and amalgam be deposit ed with the First National tbank, pending a trial of the case to deter mine ownership. George W. French Is a principal in the case as guardian for the Thrasher boy, the plaintiff. WASH THAT ITCH AWAY DEATH SlAKES SIX CHILDREN MOTHERLESS J C. F. COOK, President and Manager F. H.
