Peach Spray Dope Is Expected Soon Peach growers who have tried to buy paradichlorobenzene and found their dealer's supply ex hausted should try again in about ten days. This material has been very short, but a shipment Is expected soon at Portland. This delay is unfor tunate as it will arrive right during peach harvest. Every effort should be made to apply the treatment as soon as the material is available because its efficiency is greatly reduced as the soli temperature is low ered. C. B.

U.R Union Pacific railroad directors Los Angeles, Aug. 24. (U.R) Office of Price Administration suits against the California Fruit Growers' Exchange and the Mu tual Orange Distributors asking $2,576,202 in treble damages for asserted violation of price ceil ings were dismissed today by Federal Judge Paul J. McCor mick. The suits were dismissed after OPA regional authorities in San Francisco had ruled that broker age charges, on which the as serted overcharges were based, were legal. The original complaints were filed last January and named as defendants the California Fruit Growers' Exchange, 25 dis trict exchange corporations and 25 unincorporated associations In California and Arizona. The amounts asked represent ed treble damages for alleged sale of citrus fruit throughout the country for which a broker age fee had been charged. The brokerage fee amounted to one and one-half per cent mark up over the packers' ceiling price, the OPA asserted. 4H Stat Exhibit Planned In October Oregon will hold a state ex hibit on October 9 to 13, this year, for 4H club members in home economics, crops and mis cellaneous projects.

FRENCH CELEBRATE San Francisco, Aug. 24. (U.R) Paul Vcrdier, leader of San Francisco's French colony and president of the City of Paris department store, ordered cham pagne for his 600 employes and closed the store an hour early yesterday to celebrate the lib eration of Paris. The Indus river is 1700 miles long. The boys in the yards and on the loading , platforms are talking about these bright, orange -painted freight cars with the famous goat trademark. They have seen the first of Great Northern's new plywood, steel and lumber freight cars equipment which is lighter, faster, but with-, out sacrifice of sturdiness and safety. By early winter Great Northern will have 1,000 of these modern freight cars in operation, augmenting its dependable service between the Great Lakes and the Pacific Northwest. R. S. ROPER, Trav. Fit. Agent 530 American Bank Bldg. Portland 5, Oregon ' " :.--a :-: .--i . 4r'-l I 8T : V" -Jr. iS'fjtJ ! ''''V-' .t. The following excerpts are from logger-talk. "Sometimes the things news paper and radio commentators say hit my funny bone. For in stance that Russia's victory over the Germans is also our victory because we helped furnish the material to win it. Why we could just as well say the Jap victory at Pearl Harbor was also ours because we helped furnish the material." Well, that's one way of looking at it. From another: "Women sure get a dirty deal from us men. We let them work on our jobs when we get In a pinch, like now, but we give them to under stand that no matter how much they would like to keep on, no matter how efficient they prove themselves to be, still they've got to hand those jobs back to us the minute we tell them to." Then another repeated the Item in a late paper which told of a European woman's protest at having American women in troduced as "The charming wife of Mr. So-and-so." With a fair- 1 ness which was strange coming j from a man, he said, "I'd slap the guy down who introduced me as 'the handsome husband of my wife. Maybe women feel the same way. It ain't any par ticular honor to be the wife of some of us guys and most of our women have some other talent than just being a wife. It was all right for King Solomon to intro duce his concubines as his charming property, though from what I hear ho wouldn't even go that far, but our wives don't have exactly that standing. "My goodnessl 1 give you my word, this a direct quotation from a feller. These are not words I've put In his mouth on paper. But after all, we didn't give our selves the right to vote; our men gave it to us; chaps like the one from whom I've Just quoted. , Said another less progressive, "Oh, women don't want to work. It's job enough for them to stay home and have kids." To this inelegant statement, the other replied, "What's the matter with combining Jobs and kldsl That is, if a woman wants to. Now In Russia (and how often I hear references to this country from working men now that to do so no longer endan gers their job) in Russia if a woman wants both a Job and a kid, she works as long as she can, lays off when she has to, then goes back, takes the kid with her, nuts it in the nursery maintained right in the factory ana wnen sne luxes nme on to nurse It, her pay goes on Just the same. "If a woman wants to work before the baby comes, it don't hurt her. My dad used to work his brood mares right up to foal ing time; said it kept 'em lim ber." .
