Phone 4311 COURT FIXES LIMIT OF TRUCK LOADS The county court Thursday adopted a schedule for apple harvest loads of mo tor trucks. Loads of trucks will be limited as follows : Ford trucks, 75 boxes of apples; 2 ton trucks, six inch tires, 125 boxes ; 2-ton trucks, eight inch tires. 150 boxes ; 2J-ton, 150 box es ; 3-ton, 180 boxes, which is placed as the maximum for trucks of any capac itv. The speed has been limited to 12 miles, whether the trucks carry loads or not. When the rainy season begins tne loads will be further limited, and dur ing periods when the roads are consid ered too soft trucks will be prohibited the use of highways- Valley highways in numerous instances last year, it is said, were ruined by indiscriminate use of them when they were soft from rains. While the court expresses a de sire to cooperate in transporting the big apple crop, the members declare that they do not believe growers will approve of careless motor truck haul ing over wet roads, when the highways may Le preserved by waiting a few days for them to dry out. Orchardists and motor truck operators have been warned that the county roadmaster and ofliicers have been instructed to enforce the trullic rules rigidly. BOOTH HILL WORK BEGINS THIS WEEK Joplin & Eldon, awarded the con tract for grading rive miles of the val ley trunk of the Loop Highway over Hooth Hill, will begin work of grub bing this week, it is stated. The bid (if the contractors was $54,54l.60, while the estimated cost of the work was placed at $78,000. Incidental ex pense of constructing irrigation cross ings, however, will probably bring the cost of the rive mile unit to $G0,000. Countv officials expressed the hope that the State Highway Commission will immediately let contracts on other units of the 20.0 mile trunk road while construction costs are low and bonds are selling well. GOULD SEES NO APPLES IN EAST Virginia is without apples this year, according to E. E. Gould, who has re turned from a visit with his son, Hal Gould, a resident of that state. Mr. Gould visited points in Ontario, Can ada, and various middle western sec tions. "Naturally I was interested in ap ples," he says, "and observed closely mII the orchards that 1 saw. From the time I left home until 1 returned to Hood Kiver I saw no apple trees that bore any fruit this season. 1 see no reason why Northwestern box apples should not be in keen demand this fall. Birch Vists Here Slum Hirrh. chief of the sales depart ment of T. J. I'oppart. leading fruit sales concern of Great Britain, arrived here last week for a week's visit with I., -.1 umile uhinriers ai.d irroWertS. Mr. Birch says that he is not making any purchases but that he looks for a heavy export of Oregon Iewtowns, tne la vorite of all apples with his country men. Mr. Birch savs he never saw t . , r tirmmprtM fur a irood crop of a pies than prevail in the Hood Kiver vallev. The onlv thing that prevents the export del being one of the most profitable in the history of the grow ers, according to Mr. Birch, is the dis hanire ratos. The British fruit man will visit Underwood and White Salmon apple districts.

The Kej That I Hlocks the Boor to Leaf Living The men of eight-five and ninety years of age are not the rotund, well fed, but thin, spare men, who live on a slender diet. Be as careful as he will, i however, a man past middle age will ! occasionally eat too much or of some : article of food not Buited to his IJOnfti i tution, causing indigestion or constipa ' tion and will need a doge of Chamher j Iain's Tablets to move his bowels and invigorate his stomach. When this is ' done, there is no reason why the aver J age man should not live to a ripe old age.
