BRINGS IN FLOWERS
This office acknowledges receipt
on Saturday of a beautiful bouquet
of flowers from the gardens of Mr.
and Mrs. E. E. Rugg on Rhea creek.
Included were many excellent speci
mens of zinnias, asters, marigolds,
and a seed dahlia. The seed from
which the dahlia grew were planted
this spring, said Mr. Rugg. It created
considerable interest as few of the
people who viewed it knew that it
was possible to grow dahlias from
seed. Speaking of flowers, Mr. Rugg
said they had grown beautiful glad
iolas at their place, but found that
the chief difference between grow
ing "glads" here and at Grants Pass
and other places where the flower
has been made famous, is that the
bulbs do not reproduce as well. He
believed this might be attributable
to a shorter growing season.

any accomplices, and denied that
entry was forced into the sheds in
which the trucks were stored. Sher
iff C J. D- Bauman appeared as

thing just told me to do it"
Bert Johnson Named
To Waterways Post
Bert Johnson, county judge, this
week acepted appointment to the
post of regional vice-president, In
land Empire Waterways association,
to succeed the late S. E. Notson.
In his letter of acceptance to H
G. West, executive secretary, John
son stated the coincidence of his
views with those of the association
in the river development program.
He stated belief in development of
the Columbia river for transporta
tion as a single unit between Bon
neville and as far inland on the Co
lumbia and Snake rivers as may be
practicable to go, supported con
struction of a dam at Umatilla rap
ids as the next logical step in the
development, and urged a definite
appropriation by congress each year
looking to eventual fruition of the
entire river program.
The fourth annual meeting of the
association is slated to be held at
I Walla Walla, October 19 and 20, and
Mr. Johnson urged attendance of all
interested persons in this county.
Everyone in Morrow county should
he interested, he asserted, as largest
hope for lower transportation costs
for our people lies in the develop
ment of the river. Not only should
our people take a passive interest,
but they should take an active inter
est, supporting the program finan
cially when called upon to do so
The work of the association cannot
be carried on without funds, and
through the association lies the main
hope for bringing about the development.
