D D Cady&Pegg OE I Supervisor Dessinger is very i biyy this week, making repairs to some of Beaverton s streets. At the crossing at the mill, and on Broadway, in the vicinity of the mill, some very much needed repaireare being made, Then the road north of the mill, will be rocked and rolled for a con siderable distance. 'This road needs rock clear through to the Canyon road,, but it is npt ex- 'pected that the supervisor will ' have funds sufficient to rock its full length, but he will go as far I as he can. ' ' I By all means, Beaverton should have held a town fair this fall, r but it is now rather late to pie innrp for if. hpfnrn that rainv Ron. son. Not only have the grain, hay, vegetable and truck crops been unusually , good, but the fruit especially the apple crop, is fine. We will probably never have a better opportunity to make as good or a more elabor ate exhibit. . , While out .driving: Monday af ternoon, the team ran away with Fred Darough and Miss Hazel Pegg on the Portland road a short distance east of town, tip ped the buggy over. Miss Pegg jumped and escaped with a few minor, bruises while Darough was uninjured. ' The buggy was considerably damaged. , It is expected that by next week work will be commenced on Beaverton's high school build ing. It means an expenditure of about $19,000, a large portion of which will be paid out for labor, which, with the marketing of a very large crop, materially help business conditions in our town, Mrs. Georgo Gibler and two daughters of Jefferson City, Mo., spent several da"ysIast week visiting G..Wv Baker arid family at the farm, south of town. Mrs. Gibler is a niece of Mr. Baker. The Giblers were enroute home from a visit to the San Francisco exposition. ' . The truck gardeners in the Be averton section would appreciate a little rain, now that the grain harvest has been gariered, and no damage from that source is in the way, "Late vegetation would be greatly benefitted by a little moisture. ' Jack Hooper, wife and daugh ter visited relatives and friends in Vancouver last Monday. So mtny people have gone to the hopyards that it has been deemed advisable by the board of directors not to open the Beaver ton public school until September 20. This gives the pupils, who want to earn a little pin money in the hopfields an opportunity to start in at the opening of school. ' and thus be given their proper places in the classes without any; loss of place in the class forma tions. It is to be regretted that Beav avrton road district did not vote a tax last fall, as the supervisor is now handicapped in his repair work. He' Has) not eVen funds' sufficient fcwpair all the chuck holes in the roads of the distrust': ; Certainly Beaverton will not re peal her vote of last fall, when meeting is called again soon. We have heard little lately re garding the proposed sewer sys tem for Beaverton. There is yet! time to complete it before the first of the year, in case the work is commenced soon.,, The city council has not discussed the mat ter lately, and it is not known whether it ha given up the work for this year or not. The council will meet again Monday evening. The onion crop on the beaver dam in this section is about nor mal. Some fields that were not" cultivated properly smothered somewhat with weeds molded to some extent, but in most fields the crop is normal, or a little above the usual average. : Miss Ella Sifler, who has been visiting her sister, Mrs. Otto Bertsch, on Route three, the past three months, left Sunday even iag for her home in Anaconda, Mont.
