This is the first atrocity of any importance since Belgium was invaded. ' A Chicago husband this morning complained about the coffee, and his wife shot him while under its influence. Our fellow townsman, Geo. T. Col lins, wants berries to be raised in the valley. Such anarchistic tendencies should be set down upon at once. Berry raising would conflict with un divided attention to piscatorial pur suits. The upstart would displace fish , ing poles with hoe handles. , That unfailing sign of spring ped dlers of narcotics for languid auto Jitals, have arrived. . Christopher Mills. 74.

PHONE THE CORONER (Eugene Register) The La Comas club will enter tain their husbands and sweet hearts Tuesday night in the W. O. V. hall on Main street, near the bridge.

It will get the, morning sun, and be protected trom the west winds, and is located at the intersection of three limbs. The twig style of architecture will be used, and the interior will be lined with the pin feathers of English sparrows, wuicn are scarce owing 10 ine duck ward spring delaying shedding. Last year the Robins lost three sons. Two were slain by a murderous bluejay, and one fell off the back porch before he could fly. . The ball team representing the al leged munlc center of the northwest, has been licked tw ice in a row. The putficld can't hit a little bit. but all have rich baritone voices. j,The Genoa Conference opens Mon day. It will, stabilize world finances, which are pretty well garagized. The present administration was' invited to attend and refused. It cares nothing for humanity, and selfishly puts the rights of America before the dreams of Europe. BESIDES DOING THE HOUSEWORK (Albany Democrat) Mr. and Mrs. B. A. Holteen went ' to Tennessee one day last week after some baby chicks. Mrs. " Hornbuckle had batched for them. ; They brought back 2C8. The vernal flock of drummers swooped down on the valley this week.

AVith improvement of the connecting highway, find vitli the coming of irrigation, there should be a well-orgaiiiaod local association, to supply and develop this market on a sound imd business-like basis. The controversy following Mr. Collins" suggestion is not n serious one. Whatever the exact capacity of the Klamath market, everyone agrees that the market exists, that Medford is the logical center of supply for fresh fruit and berries, and that now is the time to get to work on the proposition. ' ' ' - 1 Uut Klamath docs not represent the only opportunity in this direl'. tion. A new aud shorter highway connecting the Kogue Kivcr val-i ley with Crescent City and the coast will be completed in the near future. This will open up n rich territory, with only delayed and in direct communication vitli California. Medford should lie the pro ducing and distributing center for fresh vegetables and fruit, and with a truck line to tbe coast, tins' field would be a profitable and steadily. growiug one. ' , ; :' . The Rogue Kiyer valley can produce the best fruits, berries and vegetables in the world. It has the soil, the climate and the rTcreage. With water, a very large tonnage can be put out. Developing territory near at band, to the east and west, and then j tbe development of a large and properly financed cannery, to take the excess tonuage, and the serious land and water problem in Jack son county will be wived. It must bo done. For the more one studies the question, the more apparent it becomes that this is the. "only way. .

"Most of the liquor is consumed on the Atlautic seaboard." So that's what makes the West wild. , A man seldom makes a fool of himself.

They say that base and evil men are selling bootleg brandy; in musty joint and squalid den they keep the poison handy. And customers go there and swill the stuff from frowsy flagons, then to the boncyard on the hill they go in creaking wagons. If they escape the bier and shroud, it may be they'll be; blinded, and crippled, busted up and bowed, and sick and" broken winded. For booze is made of deadly things, of poNvdered toads and henna, of warthog tusks and serpent stings, and chophouse pies and senna. ; So I shall seek no alley dump for tlrinlcs made' by a vandal, lut journey to the cistern pump and blithely ply, the handle. v. iiiinerv. oiouses Sweaters and iosierv.
