A Good Hdea! INVEST WISELY INSURE A SAVING SOLVE THE FUEL PROBLEM NOW! While delivery can be made direct from Mill and Factory. GREEN PINE SLABS $375 TIMBER PlMCOi,PANY MtO'OBO AT TO 55 CENTS PINT Continuing the intensive cam paign underway to eliminate from business the bootlegger, the state liquor store here will soon offer for sale "good whiskey at 85 cents a pint," it was announced today. The shipment Is expected in about two weeks, and will be made up of "reliable liquor." which drinkers can be assured carries no poison under the government stamp. While It will probably be not much more than six months of age, It promises to be gooa whiskey. The state commission is doing everything possible, Earl Foy, manager of the local store, pointed out today, to reduce the price on liquors in order to run V'l bootlegger clear out of the field. i Is Impossible, how ever, to lowei . price on certain old brands. The Pacific coast now has prac tically all the old bonded liquor in existence. The aupply haa Been ex hausted In the east, and for thia rea son the state pays highly for It and must not sell the liquor at a loss. Liquor is now being shipped from Canada In kega for bottling In Oregon to bring down the cost. The state will not aell the liquor below cost, because whenever the commission loses a cent, so does the taxpayer. Indications that the public Is set tllne down to more moderate drink ing are found In the Increased sale of wine, noted at the local store. The lighter drink la now aelllng at the same rate as whiskey, which has not been characteristic of the American thirst In the past. A steady Increase In sales has been experienced at the state atore here each week and witn me increase come no change In the dlgnlfiea ntmosDhere of the store. No one under the Influence of liquor can obtain liquor at the store and no trouble has resulted from enforcement of this ruling here, of ficials stated today. Ill public seems to understand that the liquor store is operated In the same manner aa any other merchandise establishment and has made no effort to destroy the atmosphere of quiet, which has pre vailed there aince opening at the loca tion on South Bartlett. Members of the game division, Oregon state police, said today that the salmon at savage ttapias awn. had been taken out of the hole on the south side, and were back in the river. Approximately one thousand fish, both young and old were taken from the hole, the officer in charge said. Wm.
