which went at 10 cents at the high

not quite as good as the S7.75 cowa . nt

Fruitland News Items
(Capital Journal Special Service)
Fruitland, Dee. 21. Miss Josio
Bowers, a former resident now living
in the state of Washington, writes
they had a heavy snow a few days ago
tho the weather was not cold. This is
in the Okanogan' country in which
section she has taken uu a pieco of
open country and the land
is quite productive. A sister and fami
ly, Mrs. Niua jiaymond, also live there.
The Capital Journal speaking of thi
nign price of corn meal, states a 10
pound sack costs 65 cents. Yon really
got but 9 pounds of meal. They count
one pound tor tne sack which you can
not eat, and it does not weigh a pound
hardly half. So ono can see plainly
the corn meal graft. Nino pounds of
meal at 63 cents is a little more than
7 cents a pound and a good grade of
wheat flour can be bought in Salem for
5 cents. Making corn a substitute on
"wheatless days" creates a demand
for the meal which is a pretext for
putting up the price on the substitute!
O yes, the corn meal manipulators
piny the bunco game on the dear peo
ple, and wose yet flim flam us behind
the guise of patriotism which makes
them all tho more contemptible. Why
don't Hoover rout these pirates? Some
dealers ask 70 cents for this fake 10
pound sack.
David Mills has secured employment
at the feeble minded school farm.
Yes the days are approaching rapid
ly their shortest. We are now far to tho
north, about as far north on the earth's
annual circuit as we can get. Oiie of
the Hebrew prophets, Tsa. 40:22, speaks
of "the circle of the earth" which im
plies that the earth is circular in form
Of that it moves in a circle has a cir
cular orbit. Thus it appears that thi
Copernicun system of astronomy was
known centuries before the birth of
Copernicus.
