ALSIKE CLOVER
INCREASES IN
KLAMATH BASIN
Apparently growera have fur
ther Increaaed their acreage of
alslke clover for aeed this year.
During the paat three years, thia
crop haa proved very popular
and acreage has doubled each
year. Thla pace, however, can
not be continued and while a
decided Increase la noted in
1840 over 1839, perhaps the per
centage will be around 38 to 40
per cent, or a total acreage In
crease for the entire district of
between 2000 and 2300 acres.
Popularity of this crop is rapid
ly making alaike clover one of
the leading farm crops of the
Klamath basin and has boosted
the state of Oregon to the front
rank aa number one alaike
clover-producing state of the
union. Practically all districts
throughout the Klamath basin
show a substantial increase in
thla crop, ranging from IS to
30 per cent. 1
Alslke clover Is particularly
adapted to rotation farming,
practiced in the Klamath basin,
which aide materially in increas
ing its popularity.

An Injunction was issued in
circuit court Friday restraining
the city from enforcing ordinance
2178, which regulates the hold
ing of auction aales insofar aa it
pertains to H. J. Winters, local
jeweler.
He alleged the ordinance is
discriminatory, unfair and un
just. Stating that he will hold

ant says that under the ordinance
he would be forced-to pay $1223
in fees. J. H. Carnahan is his
attorney. .

the city officials from arresting
or molesting the plaintiff in- the

Of Collapse of

Editor's Note: Edward W.

By EDWARD W. BEATTIE, Jr.

LONDON, June 21 (UP)
France capitulated Monday be
cause constant German pound
ing had turned the rear areas
Into chaos.
Nobody knew where the Ger
man advance screen would turn
up. Fifth column talk behind
the lines added to the confu
sion. Thousands of soldiers threw
away their rifles and started
home by any possible means.
This statement is based large
ly on my own visual experi
ence and partly on that of
other competent observers who,
during the past three days,
convinced themselves that the
only remnant of coolhcadedness
between the sea and Paris was
to be found in the small aector
held by the BEF.
Question of Daya
Whatever reasons led the
French government to capitu
late, It became apparent behind
the allied northwestern front
late last week that the end of
French resistance waa only a
question of days.
Ncaring the front we began
passing groups of French sol
diers still carrying their rifles,
ranging from new issues to
long, old-timers. There were
cavalcades of French army
trucks, some obviously origin
ally artillery haulers, passing
toward the rear, filled half with
soldiers and half with refugees.
Nobody showed much interest
in us.
No Order
At first we thought the troops
were from nearby reserve bil
lets but soon we began to rea
lize there was no order what
ever in their movements.
Undoubtedly many French
divisions - stuck to the finish.
But these men, after six weeks
of taking it on the chin, were
going home.
On Saturday I saw a French
column three batteries of
horse-drawn 75' moving
southward along back roads
under orders.
Typical of French disorganiza
tion was the fact that just after
we had a disagreeable five min
utes with a German patrol we
met a French truck column
loaded with food, moving In
the direction from which we
had just come." The com
mander had turned the column
around because, although the

Refugees
Each tree-lined, dusty French
road was dotted to the horizon
with refugees. There must
have been millions walking,
wheeling baby carriages, riding
bicycles, farm carts or jammed
with their belongings into the
most weird collection of "Jal
lopies" I ever saw anywhere.
On Saturday we ourselves ran
Into a typical fifth column
rumor designed to confuse and
disorganize the frontal area and
which might have been respons
ible for some of the southward
movement of troops we saw.
A French non-commissioned
officer lounging beside the road
told us he heard there was a
48-hour armistice during which
the front was to be static while
negotiations were being con
ducted. This was a half-truth, as
later events proved, but there
certainly was no armistice
when we ran Into German
skirmishes a few minutes later.
One of six attractive candi
dates from points throughout
the Klamath basin will have the
thrill of her young lifetime on
Saturday night, just about 11
o'clock, when a white buckskin
outfit will be slipped over her
shoulders, and a white Stetson
hat placed on her curls to let
admirers know she is queen of
Klamath Buckaroo days.
At the queen's ball in the
armory, where aeveral thous

the ruler of the four-day show,
dancing will start promptly at
