ASPARAGUS BIDES HIGH
The settlement secured on this
year's shipments of asparagus by the
Umatilla Project Growers' Associa
tion from the Three Rivers Growers
association which did the marketing
Job wag very satisfactory, according
to remarks made by local growers.
The price was »1.45 per 12 pound
box to the association. Aftes de
ductions for handling, brokerage and
boxes were made growers still had
an average price of »1.17 per box,
or nine and three-fourths cents per
pound for the crop.
Not so bad! The men who have
gone to the expense of putting li
beds and caring for them are feeling
pretty good over this year’s opera
tlons. They are also looking into
the future with the expectation of
doing better. Practically all of the
local beds are young and can not
be cut closely. Another year will
show a much larger yield than was
secured this season, and even If the
price should be lower, tl«e added
volume Is almose sure to bring gross
receipts from the spring shoots to a
it new blood among merchants in-
llcatee growth and progress the
vorld will do well to keep an eye

A fter Death
Carcasses of diseased fowls should
never be thrown where chickens or
hogs can get them, as there is much
greater danger of severe Infection
from eating tuberculous or otherwise
diseased organs of a dead fowl than
from other sources.

OHN MF.RCERKAITS stage coach lumbered its creaking
way from New York to Philadelphia in a day and a half,
in 1771, and was considered so fast that it was called "The
Flying Machine.” When »ream came into use, there were the
"Comet,” the "Thunderbolt” and similar names, suggesting
the attainment ol the axe-old need—speedy messengers.
Man’s effort to overcome the limitations ol time and dis
tance finally put electricity to work, and it became hit swiftest
message bearer.
Halt a century ago Bell invented the telephone. It is more
than a messenger, for it has been developed to carry man’s
spoken words for great distances with the swiftness of light.
Through its wizardry space is conquered with the speed of
thought itself.
