as serviceable as red fir or long.
lleaf pine, its structural value
compares favorably with that Of
loblolly or Virginia pine, and
that it therefore deserves to be
marketed on its merits. The
effect of publishing reliable in
formation in regard to the
mechanical properties of this
timber by the Forest Service will
be to encourage its Legitimate use
and to remove existing prejudices
against it.
During the Lewis and Clark
Centennial Exposition at Port
land, Ore, a testing station was
operated in connection with the
forest exhibit of the Government,
and tests of structural timbers of
large sizes were made daily. At
the close of the exposition the
machine was reinstalled at Eu-
gene, Ore, where the University
of Oregon has equipped test
ing plant especially to cooperate
with the Forest Service in this
work, and special Investigations
to determine the effect of knots
on the strength of red fir are be-
ing carried on. At Seattle,
Wash, the State University has
also completed testing labor
atory which will be operated by
the Forest Service in cooperation
with the university. Here in
vestigations of western hemlock
will be conducted along the lines
followed with red fir at the Uni
versity of Oregon.
About year ago the Forest
Service issued a circular, "Pro-
gress Report on the Strength of
Struct ural Timber" which gave
the par ,ial results of the tests of
Pacific Coast timbers and which
has been exhausted by the re-
quests made for it-an indica-
ton of the practical interest of
the studies. A revised edition is
now in preparation.

The Portland Market.

In the livestock market, cattle
are considered easy, sheep firm,
and hogs strong. The supply of
fat cattle is ample for the time,
on account of stockmen being
anxious to dispose of their fat
steers before the fodder gives out.
Considerable hay has been fed
out in the stock raising districts
this season, where the supply. was
supposed to be ample, but feed
ers will have to be more saving
of theit fodder, in view of con-
siderable cold weather ahead.
Arrivals of fat beeves are fully
up to the demand from day to
day.
Sheep are scarce and are ex-
pected to continue so until after
sheerlng in the Spring, when a
good many wethers will be
thrown upon the market.
Fat hogs command top prices,
and drovers are securing the
Northwest in quest of porkers for
the Portland market. This
scarcity is expected TO become
more pronounced unless live hogs
are brought out from the East by
the car load.
Fresh ranch eggs have drop
ped to the 25c mark, and are ex-
pecting to remain there for a
while, as Eastern and cold stor-
age products have disappeared.
Fresh eggs receipts are heavier
each succeeding day as result
of mild weather, and dealers look
for a further decline as the sea-
son advances, until the bottom
has been reached in March or
April.
Live chickens are plentiful,
and the top price secured for
fancy hens is I2Hc per pound.
Large numbers of roosters are
among today's receipts, and these
are of dull sale at 9 and 10 cents.
Unless a better demand appears
toward the end of the week, even
these low prices will fail to clean
up stocks. Commission men who
handle chickens are beginning to
feel anxious over the situation.
Dried prunes have advanced as
a result of scarcity of all dried
fruits. AS high as 7ca pound is
predicted for the larger sizes be-
fore the new fruit crop appears.
As soon as prune prices advance,
their consumption seems to in
crease contrary to the rule in
other commodities.

two from Oregon Agriculture
College and one from the Uni

He has picked Moores of Eu-
gene, for one of his ends, and
Dow Walker, of Corvallis. for
center. Williams, from OAC, is
named for one of the halves, and
Roosevelt is considered the best
material for guard.
Following is the personnel of

FINDS FIANCEE,
WHO SAYS, q Do
win Marks Search for His
Betrothed Rewarded at
the Altar.

Love laughs at conspiring sisters as
well as at locksmiths.
Miss Anna McNaughton, who was in
duced by her relatives to desert her
.affianced husband on the eve of their
wedding, is now the happy bride of
Edwin. Marks, the determined lover,
who would not. let family opposition
come between him and his love.
After Anna was taken to the Me-
Naughton farm on the Silver Lake road
in Ramsey county, Marks was distracted
over the loss. He was certain that Anna
had been abducted and was forcibly re-
strained. He could find no trace of her
and appealed to the authorities of three
counties to help him. Word was finally
given out by the McNaughtons that
Anna had gone to her parents in Can
ada, but Marks, ever yigilant, kept his
eyes on the farmhouse on the Silver
Lake road, and was finally rewarded by
meeting Anna face to face. Marks
already had the license, and arrange
ments were soon made to go to Mime
apolis and have the long delayed cere-
mcny performed.
Where Mr.. and Mrs. Marks may be
now no one knows, but it is certain that
their honeymoon is none the less sweet
because Of the difficulties that were
overcome.

Fittings for Two Rooms Will Save Old
Couple. ='.

Furniture for two rooms is all that is
needed to place an old and infirm
couple, residing in Northeast Mime
Fapois, in 8 position where they will be
independent of charity, except in case
of sickness. .e--
The case was brought to the atten-
tion of the Associated Charities early
last month and a visitor was at once
sent to Investigate. He found the old
man confined to the house by injuries
received in a fall from a wagon last
summer, yet his only request was for
work. It was impossible to find work
suited to him, and the association gave
money. The. aged couple would accept
only enough to keep them from starva-
ton.
There are two vacant, unfurnished
rooms in the house and the landlord has
offered them to the old folks, rent free.
These rooms are suitable for dodgers
and the income from them will support
the old couple. who dread charity The
Associated Charities will call for and
deliver any bedroom furniture which
may be offered.
