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

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.
