(By United Press)
Loudon, June 29. Koxer Casement

argued that Roger was a loyal patri
otic Irishman recruiting a regiment
mong German prisoner because Ul
ster threatened a civil war in Ireland.
The lord chief justice interposed: "The
jury will be instructed that any act
tending to weaken the country' power
of resistance was aiding and comfort-
ng the king's enemies." The ruling
plainly depressed Casement. Reading
later instructed the jury that if one of
the ix alleged acts were proved, the

LENTY OF BERRIES,
FOR LOGANBERRY JUICE
Producers Around Corvtallis
Will Send Down Berries
Daily.
That the new Albany loganberry
juice plant will have all the loganber
ries needed i no- longer a question
The possibility is for mare than can he
handled. Mr. Brown, of the company,
met thi week with some grower
around Corvalli to make arrange
mcnts for getting their berries here in
good shape. The Garette-Tinies says:
Mr. Brown explained the crate
scheme that he .has worked out and
stated that the crates could he laid
down in Corvalli for about 15 cents.
Each crate hold twelve boxes that
weigh a pound each when filled with
berries. .
"It is proposed now to get a truck
and take the Benton comity supply
over every day. There will be some
central point itvCorvallis where they
will be collected arid a truck will be
lespatched when filled with berries.
"This year- the company is paying
$50 a ton, but next year they will pay
$60. The reason for the low price is
that they made that kind of of an
agreement with the Linn county grow
ers, that is. if they went to the expense
of putting in the plant that the grower
sell the berries tin year for a low
price to help the thing along. Sixty
dollars will make a gross income of
about $240 an acre. -
A ton of berries will make about 185
gallons of juice."
The first loganberries will arrive at
the. plant at the foot of Broadalhin
street Friday and ' the operation of
