he says he hit at the wrong
time this year, prices being
much higher now than when
he sold.
Mr. and Mrs. Ed Turner of

At the meeting of the
Sams Valley Grange, Jan. 25,
a resolution was endorsed
asking that facilities at Camp
White Domiciliary be made
a complete 400 bed general
medical and surgical hospi
tal, also it was voted to peti
tion the county court as to
the naming of the old road
i through Sams Valley, and
I asking that the name of Per-
ry rd b given to the road

j Lester James farm to a meet
ing with the north Beagle rd.
Signs were posted last, fall
I at each end of this road giv
ing it the name of Rabbitville
rd., but after vigorous protests
from farmers along the route,
the signs were taken down.
Years ago a man started a
store at the south end of this
road, and on account of the
heavy jack rabbit population,
called it the Rabbitville store,
which probably accounts for
the recent naming. The store
is a thing of the past, the rab-
j bits have long since vanished, I
so uie undignified name is no
more appropriate, so say the
dwellers there. i
The'J. L. Pullman family,;
who, have lived in the Ray j
Baker house since last Aug

near future and are now look-!
ing for a four bedroom house j
to buy or rent, preferably ut I
in the rural area, but not 1
too distant from Medford,
where Pullman works. They
are vacating, so that the Ray
Baker family, the owners, can
move in. ,

Recent cattle sales at the
Bill Bray auction yards have
caused a lot of optimism
among cattle men and farm
ers attending the sales. At a
recent visit there we saw sev
eral price-squeezed farmers
smoking cigars, some of whom
heretofore had been satisfied
with cigarettes and some who
were forced to forgo them.

doesn't indulge in such things,
