PLANT TOMATOES
N EDEN VALLEY,
VISIT TULIP BED
By Mrs. Mary O. Carey. Phone 341-J-t.
EDEN PRECINCT, May 10. Sheets
brothers, who are renting the George
Anderson ranch west of Talent are
planting about an acre of tomatoes for
the Talent cannery. They have some
of the best garden land in the valley,
and an abundance of water to give the
plants the proper culture. Fifteen dol
lars a ton is good money for tomatoes.
The boys' father has given the boys a
chance to do a little gardening for
themselves, if they will cultivate the
crop.
Report says that the Phoenix Broth
erhood held ono of the most pleasant
meetings of the season last Saturday
night. There was music and a good
supper and several interesting talks.
There were at least one hundred
persons visited the tulip gardens at
the home of Mrs. Donna Graffis, last
Sunday. Mrs. Graffis was entertain
ing about fourteen persons at dinner,
and yet she managed to meet most of
her visitors and say a word about her
garden. She alBO had her picture taken
in her garden working attire, hoe and
rake in hand. She delved among the
bulbs as if at work while the camera
clicked. We feel sure it caught her
genial smile, if not it failed to rightly
portray Mrs. Graffis.
Mrs. Jim Evans, mother of A. E.
Evans, Central Point merchant, has
been in the valley visiting her chil
dren and left for her home at Dorris
last Saturday, accompanied by Mr 3.
Froman, a daughter of Mrs. Evans,

Max Bowman, Bon of our genial matt
carrier, was home from Algoma, Ore.,
the fitst of last week and remained

Rev. and Mrs. O. T. Morgan, who
own a nice little farm on Coleman
Creek were down to the plant farm
Tuesday after tomato plants. They
informed me that their three sons are
all gone from the old homeland and
that they are left on the farm alone.
This is the way of life.
Mrs. F. E. Furry of Phoenix left last
week for Benltla, Calif., for a visit
with her son Mllo Furry. Milo is
superintendent of the mixing of spray
in a big spray plant near Benlcla. '
We were shocked to learn of the
sudden death of Miss Anpa Lane, at
the home of her Bister, Mrs. Wilcox
of Griffin creek. Miss Lane lived at
the home of Mr. and Mrs. James Allen
for two years during Mrs. Allen's ill
ness, and was very kind and faithful
to them. She was s woman who never
spoke ill of anyone, only kind words
were hers. She had been a sufferer
for several years with diauetts.
Rev. and Mrs. Reed of Talent went
to Vancouver, the first of this week,
where they will visit with Mrs. Reed's
brother, and will likely go on to Seat
tle before returning to their pastoral
work at Talent.
A man by the name of Collins who
has a stock 01 furniture in the Ame3
building, bought out the Pellett store
this week and will put In a general
line of merchandise, both drygood?
and groceries. This Is a welcome en
terprise for the 'little town of Talent,
as Mr. Collins says he will be able to
give good values for the people's
money.
Mr. and Mrs. Ditsworth who are far
mers on a small scale, owning a nice
little home on the highway south of

nesday morning.
Mrs. Alice Richardson and her
granddaughter left Talent for Dorris,
Calif., Saturday morning. Mrs. Rich
ardson will remain at Dorris a, short
time, then will go on to her daughter's

summer. ' ;, it-
Ilov. Angell of Phoenix will not only
preach to the people in Phoenix once
on Sundays, after tho first of June,
but will carry the" word to the good
people of Butte Falls, W believe his
work will be greatly appreciated in
tho Itllle mountain city.
J. E. Fish ha an ncre of certified
white oats on his place which is the
best piece of grain in the valley. Mr.
Fish says it PBy to buy certified seed.
And if his field is a sample, it surely
does. This grain will be threshed for
seed and if all the grain can bo se
cured it will yield an enormous crop.
Mr. SplUer, the Talent grocer, was
In Medford Tuesday to bring out a
