ACTION 13 A SURPRISE;
LACK OF INTEREST CAUSE
Members of Disorganized Body
Are Urged to Join and Co
operate with Corvallis.
Conlimn'd from WVflncMlay, April 2.
Like a tliumk'rbolt out of llie clear
sky, the hoard of directors of the
Albany Kruil (Growers Association,
during a short mei-tin held imniedi-att-ly
after the association tnci'tiiitf,
ui.finiinously decided to disband the
organization. The meeting of the as
social ion convened yesterday after
noon at 2:30 o'clock at the Commer
cial dub and was fairly attended.
The sudden action on the part of
the hoard of directors came as a sur
prise, as no such measure had been
contemplated at previous ineeliiiKS.
The directors in sustaining their ac
tion held that there was much lack of
interest in the organization among lo
cal growers and that growers through
out the section had failed to respond
with the proper support and interest
in tin; association, and ttial under
present conditions and such eircum
slauces it was ill advised to attempt
to perfect a permanent organization
at the present time.
The resolution to that effect adopt
ed by the directors, urged the mem
bers of the local association to join
the Benton county association and
strongly urged them to' co-operate
with that organization. However, a
provision was made in the reso-1
lution, that when there is a real call
for such an association for this county
the matter will ho again taken up
with a view of re-organization. This
action will positively not result, how
ever, unless the local growers come
forward with their help and show
more interest in the undertaking than
has heretofore been shown.
The disband men I of the associa
tion effects all of the plans set forth
at previous meetings. A proposition
of particular note, as proposed
at the last big meeting, for the es
tablishment of a produce agency in
(his city for the dispensation of all
the products of this section, which
agency would act as the middle man
between the farmer and the mer
chants, will not he carried out as
before staled. However, it was given
out that local producers would sus
tain the rcMdution adopn-d at a pre
vious meeting, to the effect that they
would sell their produce in the city
as long as ihe market holds out, hut
as soon as there is a notable decrease
in the demand, the left over products
will be shipped l v the Corvallis cannery.

MUCH ATHLETIC ACTIVITY
AT AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE
Spring Football Practice Starts
April 14; Old Players
Have Left.
That Albany will get the big U.
of O.-O. A. C. football again this
year, is assured beyond a doubt by
the news that contracts to this effect
have already been signed by the col
lege and athletic authorities of the
two colleges.
The following from the Corvallis
Gazette-Times confirms this fact and
may be of interest to local sportsmen:
"Contracts are being signed for a
football game at Albany between the
U. of O. and O. A. C. November 8.
Kunds have been appropriated also
by the athletic council at the college
for the purchase of necessities for
spring practice, which will begin in a
fortnight. The games at Corvallis
are to be umpired next fall by George
Var.iell, sporting editor of the Spo
kanc Chronicle.
"l;oot ball will not be in the back
ground much longer, for on April 14
spring practice will begin on the lo
cal campus. The old men arc already
showing a great deal of interest in
the work, which will begin with the
most primary parts of foot hall.
"Capt. Shaw plans to have tackling
practice, punting practice, signal
work, etc., in fact everything 1ut
scrimmage. A new tackling dummy
has been ordered and will be avail
able for the spring work.
"The athletic board has appointed
Everett May as manager of spring
foot ball and he has already started
on his new job, having .completely
sysleniized the storage room, lie is
gathering up Ihe old equipment, hav
ing shoes re-clealed. jerseys and socks
washed and darned, etc., and upon
their return the room will be fumi
gated for a new start.
"This talk of foot ball naturally
causes thought to be directed at the
prospects for next year and at first
sight it is evident that there will be
many big holes to' fill. Sitton, Rey
nolds, and Kellog will be lost by
graduation. Moore has quit school,
Kveudou has completed his four yeari
of service, and Chrisman may not be
available.
"It is also reported that there is
soni edouht about lilackwell's return.
From all this it may seem that a lot
of new niaterial must he secured if
O. A. C. is to be in the running for
the conference championship."
I'eler Smith, of Gervais. arrived this
noon on a business trip in the dairy
larm of Henry Stewart.

TWO COMMITTEES TO GO j
BEFORE COUNTY COURT
The Proposed New Road Will
Eliminate Big Kill Highway
Now in Use.
According to a letter from H. Y.
Kirkpatrick, president of the Lebanon
Cnnimrrfi:il club to C M. Stewart of
the local club, that city will send aj
delegation ol lo people to tins city
tomorrow, to go before the county
court, in the interest of the proposed
new Cascadia road.
The Lcbauonites will arrive on the
noon train and will be met by a com
mittee of the Commercial club and es
corted down town. Sometime in the
afternoon the Lebanon people in com
pany with the Commercial club com
mittee will go before the court for
the purpose staled above. As yet the
exact time has not been definitely
decided upon. j
The new road was proposed in a j
petition which came up hetore the
county court at the last session. Af
ter considering the petition the court
ordered that the proposed route of
the road be surveyed, which was done
ami viewers were appointed, and have
filed their report.
The proposed new road is to be six
miles in length, starting at Shays hill,
several miles southeast of Lebanon,
and following the Sautiam river. It
is claimed that if it is constructed
thus, the new road will entirely elim
inate the big hill road now in use.
Kstimates as to the cost of the road
range from $14,00(1 to $50,000.

SHAVE WITHOUT
Don't dread shaving. Shave with
outwincing. The first requisite is not
the condition of razor or lather, as
many may believe, but is the imme
diate application ot something after
you shave that will relieve the skin
of irritation and tenderness. We know
of nothing that will do this as well
as Rexall Shaving Lotion.
Rexall Shaving Lotion is a -.lelint-ful
antiseptic preparation lor use ot
ter shaving. 1 1 helps t. sooth and
comfort the tender skin. You will get
whole lot nunc comfort out of every
shave if you use Rexall Shaving Lo
tion after every shave. You can shave
with greater comfort with a fairly
good razor if your skin is in perfect
condition for the shave, and is en
tirely free from tenderness and irri
tation, than you can with the best
and sharpest razor if your skin is not
in perfect condition.
We are confident that Rexall Shav
ing Lotion will delight and please
you. and we promise that it it does
not we will gladly refund your mon
ey. Price 35 and 50 cents. Sold in
