The boys arrived on the scene about 9 A. M. and worked until 5 P. M. Much shrubbery was planted. Many very choice gladiola bulbs and a van 'R of flower seeds and plants, all donated by tho ladies, were distributed about in every nook'an^ corner. Even Oregon grape and young fir trees found jdaee* o f honor. At one o’clock a most boun tiful dinner was served by tho ladles, who also had turned ont strong to do their “ bit" and. needless to say. everyone’s ap petite was in good order. It was inded-a most enjoyable a f fair from all standpoints. Everyone seems to enjoy tho soefahiHty and good fellowship ss well as the work, and tho Ladies’ auxiliary to the Huher Commercial Club take this op portunity rtf expressing their appréciai ion o f the ready re sponse from the club members. Now watch the paper, boys, as there is another such day coming ere .long to put the finishing touches on It all. Thank you! BANKS CAR FIGURES IN HILLSBORO ACCIDENT An automobile driven by Mr. Bruce Hahn o f Banks figured in a collision last Friday just as the Banks machine was leav- ng Hillsboro. Hahn was bringing some of the contestants in the type writing contest to Beaveron and had .several typewriters in his machine. Some o f these type- wriiers were rather severely damaged and required the ser vices of mechanics before tho contest. This proved qutto a handicap to some o f the con- tertants from Banks who wero obliged to use strange machines in the contest last Friday. The fender o f Hahn’s ma chine was tom loo$e and tho other auto suffered a bent front axle but they were both ablo to proceed on their way under their own power. OUTLOOK PROMISING FOR PRUNE PRICES Offers for the 1925 Oregon prune crop should open ut a vc, > fuir price, says G. 3. H ted, '■lar’-uiing specialist’ for the O. A. C. extension service. For the first time in several years no surplus will be carried over. Both the Oregon and California crops should' be cleaned * up shortly and since a large part of the 1924 crop has been sold for export, jobbers and retail ers should enter the 1925 buy ing season with praclicully no .runes on hand. Better economic conditions in Europe and prospects for continuous employment o f la bor in the United States aro other factors that augur well for the prune grower, Mr. Hurd believes. Oregon and Washington have a near monopoly o f Italian prunes, but this variety has to rompete with the petite pruno produced in California. Tho Italian has an advantage over tho petite In size with almost a monopoly on 20’ s, 30’ s, and SB’s. The state agricultural economic Conference and later Willamette valley conferences urged Oregon growers to put forth 1 sitCi'ial offhr! to produce v mi say anything about Mr. that was really funny. A tall Baldwin’s hair? lawyer named Short was read Mother— 8rl Little Jane— 'Cause he ain’ t ing a 6,000 word document he got any hair to talk about I called a brief."
