not only signed a petition but have
voluntarily offered to work for the

say that all objections to the creation
OF the new county is removed and
that they are unreservedly for it. Pc.
titjons have been sent to all the dis

from them are to the effect that little,
If any real opposition, is being mani
tested after little inquiry or investi-
cation is made as to the estimated

In order that the club may be in

In Show Windows.

The apple growers of Yamhill, Mar
ion, Polk, Linn, Lane and Benton
counties have prepared an exhibit of
the product of their orchards. Some
of their best are on exhibition today
In the show windows Of Olds, Worth
man & King. 1t is due to the tireless
efforts of Milliard o. Lownsdale that
the display was gotten together.
Representative George f. Rodgers,
of Marion county Il much interested
In the apple display.
"We combat the idea,' said Mr.
Rodgers, "that Hood River is the on.
ly district In the state that can grow
a perfect apple. We insist that in
several Of the valley counties apples
as good or better than the Hood Riv-
er variety can be grown. For color,
quality and keeping our apples can
be beaten"
The Willamette valley has grown
apples for the past half century In
haphazard sort of way, making no
effort at scientific culture, spraying,
etc., with the natural result of the
Goblin moth and San Jose scale.
But we are going to get rid OF
these old orchards that are menace
to the fruit industry of our section, "
said Mr.. Rodgers. "And in a few
years Willamette valley apples will be
as famous the world over as are the
Hood River apples now. journal.

Skeletons of Giants.

What archaeologists declare will
solve the mystery surrounding the
ancient mound builders was discover
ed recently In one of series of hills
along the Illinois river in that state.
The "find" shows traces of hand,craft
OF past ages and the bones of those
who wrought it. Several skeletons
we're exhumed more than eight feet
long, also pieces Of remarkable pot
terry, beads and curious implements.
Under the bones OF the ancient dead
we're found vases, the largest of which
are capable OF holding more than two
gallons, while under skull was un-
earthed bowl, in the center of
which is a well fashioned figure of a
king, seated upon a crude throne. 1t
is believed by scientists that these
bones may be those Of great leader
of the race that once ruled this por-
tion of the country.

traoted to the scene of the excasttiun
by the news of the wonderful discov-
cries. The soil of the mound has
never been disturbed and to this fact
is attributed the marvellous preserve
