THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 14, 1919 TH E H E RM ISTON HERALD, HERMISTON. OREGON. PAGE SIX Notice of Appreciation. PRO O F o f In such times as la st week you will always find th a t CONSUMER COOPERATIVES are able to PROVE their worth in a dram atic way. They fight to protect the custom ers' welfare w hile others are tem pted to profiteer. COOPERATION PAYS in dollars & cents. L ast week some retailers were asking as high as $8.10 per hund red for Sugar, and your co-op. sold it for $6.50. Some were asking 83c for 10 pounds of sugar while your co-op. store was sell ing 10 pounds for 69c. Do not be deceived. The consumers' most effective protection is in th e cooperative movement.

The tides of bloom have gone.” It was a w onderful show and would have been a credit 'to a much larger city. The first re action of those who came in seemed to be one of astonishm ent th a t H er miston could produce a show of such proportions. G reat credit is due to Mrs. Doyle and her com m ittee for th e ir work. ❖ •> •> We read th a t sw eet alyssum will produce continuous bloom th ro u g h o ut the summ er if one side is cut back one week, th e o th er side the next week, th e top the next, and so on. ❖ ❖ ❖ A speaker is to be a t th e V ert Memorial hall in Pendleton Monday evening, September 25, to tell how to grow espalier trees and on rose culture. We are unable to get the exact date of the F reew ater Garden club’s flower show, but those in te r ested may w atch the papers from our sister cities of Pendleton and W alla W alla. ❖ ❖ ❖ The Echo G arden club flower show was nicely staged and the flowers beautiful and well w orth the trip to see the fine displays and d rin k a cup o’ tea w ith our neighbors. ❖ ❖ ❖ P erhaps it would be as well to en courage the group in th e garden club who are stro n g for the study of flow er arrangem ent. We are strongly converted to th is idea when we read the follow ing clipping. “ H itle r’s close friend. K annenberg, can throw you a full-course d in n er on h alf an h o u r’s notice, w hile his wife delights the h eart of H itler through h er expert arran g em en t of flow ers.” ❖ ❖ ❖ Next m eeting of the G arden club will be held on September 18. The program says th a t there w ill be a talk on “ Dahlias, V arieties and Cul tu re ” by J. H. Reid; “The Autum n Care of B iennials,” by Mrs. B. J. N a tion and instructions on w hat to do in the garden in September, given by Mrs. H. K. Dean. ❖ ❖ <• Send for catalogues now, for fall planting, and get your name in for th e b etter class of spring publica tions. as they are full of colored Il lu stra tio n s th a t are a big help in choosing seeds. ❖ ❖ This is supposed to be th e ideal tim e to make new and renovate old lawns. A good dose of com mercial fertilizer will benefit your grass plot and the m an u factu rers advocate th is tim e for its application. ♦ ♦ ♦ The flower show com mittee w ants to th a n k B. A.
