OUTLOOK FOR FRUIT CROP BETTER NOW Salem Prune Crop and Cherry ' Crop Promises Good Yield Says Paahis As a cheering aftermath of the iis patch from Idaho that the prune crop in that slate has suffered $1,000,000 damages from the recent story Manager Robert C. Paulus, of the Salem Fruit Union, states that the prune crop in this district has not been injured in the least by the storm and that the prunes look bettor than they did two weeks ago and that all indications point -t0 a larger crop than at that time. Mr. Panlua made a trip over (he prune growing section of this county to day and brings back the report that the prunes have. weathered the storm in good ohape and that if warm weather follows the recent cold snap that the Willamette valley will have a fair yield, not an enormous yield but a'fair yield. The prune orchards are reported as "spotted" and that some parts of the orchards have prunes thickly Bet on while other parte of tho same orchard have scarcely any green fruit set on. The damage to the Idaho fruit erop will not be directly felt in this section in dried fruit prices as Idaho fs a green fruit shipping district. If however, the Idaho growers cannot supply the de mand for green prunes from Mississippi river points and farther east, they will buy green fruit from Oregon and the Willamette valley. The Salem Fruit Union expects to ship out some green fruit to help ihake up the shortage of Idaho fruit. Mr. Paulus, returned yesterday from a trip t0 The Dalles and Hood River where he looked over the cherry crop in that district. He says the orchards aro "spotted" in this district also and that some orchards will return the heav iest yield in the history of the section, while the orchard just across the fence will produce but very little fruit. The cherry crop about The Dalles is well sold and the Hood River cherry crop is sold out. The Yakima section is report ed to be short on cherries this year, Mr. Paulus reportB that the Salem cherry crop will be about the same as ill 1913 and will probably be better than in 1914 and 1915. THE PIONEERS OP CHAMFOEG. (Medf'ord Mail Tribune) Pioneers of Oregon Saturdnp cele brated at. Champoeg the anniversary of the birth of the first commonwealth on tho Pacific coast, known as the "Oregon Territory." At Champoeg, orr the banks of the Willamette, fifty two men organized May (i, 1H43, the first provisional government for the territory now comprising the states of Oregon, Washington and Idaho. At that time there were fewer than one hundred native Americans in the whole country west of the Rockies. Possession was still in dispute between Great Hrittain and the United States, and remained so until 184(5. These early settlers manifested the racial in stinct for government of And by the people, which is still a feature of Ore gon. To the efforts of these pioneers the northwest was preserved to tiie Union. All of Oregon owes a great debt to the pioneers not only to those of the ('hampoeg gathering, but also to those why, ,-eaine later. The pioneers who settled .southern Oregon were a hardy enterprising, forceful body of men and women, and to their efforts i due tho subsequent development that their sacrifices and struggles made possible. Few of the succeeding waves of im migr.ition have added as fine a citi zenship as shown by the first arrivals, and few hava done more for the up building of the state and nation. All honor to the pioneers, whose numbers grow pathetically fewer with each en suing ynr. BACK TO THE FARM GOES THE NEW FOURTH READER Sacramento, Cal., May 11.

The voice is that of Hazel Dawn, the celebrated Famous Players star, who actually went behind the rib bon counter o one of tho far-famed de partment stores of New York to obtain the proper atmosphere and settings for her next Paramount picture, "The Saleslady," whic h is ihe attraction at the Ye Liberty for Friday nud Satur day. Hazel Dawn has done many inter esting and captivating impersonations on the screen but nothing which ap proaches! in sympathetic interest Helen Shirley, the country la-ss whom poverty forces into New York it search of a living. .Shy and unsophisticated, Helen falls an easy victim of the notorious band which preys upon young girls ami she is easily induced to go to a boarding house which is in reality the headquarters of the gang. Failing to find employment, , she declares to give violin lessons and while practicing, slie hears the agon- j i.cd cough of u girl in the next room. , Investigating, she discovers that t lie j girl is in the last stages of tuberculosis, and that only instant removal to the , mountains will save her. Moved by compassion, Helen impulsively sells the, beautiful dug which is her only source of ainuwemciit and contrives to set the1 girl on the path to recovery. Practically penniless an the result of ; her kindness, Helen is e jected from her : room but young Hiiico Kciwin, a weal-J tliy New Yorker, who has been attract-' e.l by her beauty, learns of her pligh; and induces one ot the other girls in the house to "loan" Helen some money.

When she re pulses him, he contrives to have her discharged, but when she tells her story to the matron, she is taken to the man uger and reinstated. The floorwalker, finding that Helen and young Uruce are going together, in forms the lioy's father that he is inter ested in a shop girl. In the row which follows between father anil son. Brucfl leaves his homi and then marries Helen. Soon after, he is injured and Helen de cides to try her luck on the stage. Sho is a tremendous success and scores a great hit, captivating, among others, the elder Kenvin, who docs not sus pect that she is his diuigliter-in-law. The old gentlemun meets Helen -she, of course, is aware of nis identity ami tho girl adroitly wins his heart before revealing her identity.
