Fred C. Baker, secretary, and other directors of the association, have been working to bring this about for several weeks, and they have been quite successful. Walter L. Toose, Jr., chairman of the Republican State Central Com mittee, in answer to a letter from Mr. Baker, has pledged the Repub lican party to the early completion of the Roosevelt Highway, which was backed up by the republican conference in Portland on Tuesday. Mr. Tooze’s letter is 1» part as follows: "The Republican convention to- morrow will adopt a platform con- taining an "endorsement of the Roosevelt Highway, and if the Re- publican party is continued in pow er the road program, including the completion of the Roosevelt High- way, will be carried out. This will be a solemn pledge of the Republi- can party.’’ Mr. Baker, secretary of the Roosevelt Memorial Coast Highway Association, is perfectly satisfied with the promises made by Mr. Tooze and the Republican party for the early completion of the coast highway, It was through the ac- tivities of the Roosevelt association tha the coast highway was made part of the state highway was made large amount of road work and money expended on the coast high- way. There is a gentlemen’s agree ment between the association and the present State Highway Commis sion that the coast highway will be completed as soon as possible. This is, of course, contingent upon present administration bffhg turned to power, but should it defeated there is no telling when the highway would be completed. Other issues have been injected into the coming political campaign, but they all fade into insignifi cance compared to the completion of the Roosevelt Highway, as far as the coast counties are concerned, according to Mr. Baker. The plank in the Republican plat form is as follows: “We recognize that Oregon has an immense undeveloped territory in the coast counties that will be of inestimable value to the state when it is developed. We believe one of the most efficient ways to develop this territory, and thus grektly in crease the wealth of the state. Id be th« balldin* of roads to make it accessible, and we therefore favor the completion of the Roose velt Highway at the earliest possible date consistent with the state road finances. Israel P. Putman of Hebo, • di- rect descendant of the Israel Put- man of Revolutionary War fame, was in the city this week. Mr. Put man was a member of a West Vir ginia light artillery battery during the Civil War and recalls many in teresting incidents of that conflict. SEPTEMBER 29. 1922. PRICE $2.00 A.

Carl Haberlach reports having idvanced the price of cheese two r eni t Monday, triplets now being quoted at 28c Tillamook, I., ug- hoin.- and Young Americas. 2 8c. CTiecet production is holding up well, 2,208 boxes of cheese having been produced during the third wee a of September, as against 2.008 cases the same week last year. A year ago the cheese mark et was 4c loxver than it is today, That means that the third week’s cheese of September will be worth about $44.000.00 against about $34,000.00 last year, Production so far is about 6,000 boxes behind last year. Wisconsin market is now 22c I and it is thought will probably advance i further. Dairy markets in i other lines, condensed milk and butter are also advancing. Checks will be out about the 15th of October. Butter fat prices will generally rule lower than for July, as the extremely dry weather and lack of grass seemed to leave a large proportion ot fat in the milk, but not a correspondingly amount of solids, It seems that the full grass milk contains more solids than milk produced where large amounts of feed are fed.
