ACROBAT MAY
WIN FEAT TURE
cARMAN's HORSE FANcIED TO
ANNEX HANDICAP
Fair Card Is offered for This After
noon, Selling Races Taking Up
Five Numbers-1ard
to Dope
BY IRVING b. CLEMENT

For an off day, fair card is offered
for this afternoon. with the handicap,
the fourth event on the program, the
feature event. The other five races are
mace UP of maidens and selling platers
and the fields are so evenly balanced
that they should be well contested affairs,
with close finishes in order.
Acrobat, although he is carrying more
weight than he really cares for, should
be the one to catch in the handicap, and
there may be new mile record hung up.
Orilene can do better than her last race
and should furnish the contention all the
way. Col. Jack should hold Marster and
Sir Edward safe for the short end of the
purse, and has chance to beat out
Orilene for place honors.
The first race is a tough proposition,
as the field is so large and the rapid
breakers with a position near the rail
will have an advantage. Mary Glenn is
a quick breaker, has lot of early speed
and may lead her field all the way. Sun
Mark is the one that figures to win, but
is an uncertain proposition at the barrier
and in a large field may not get through
in time to win, but should be second.
Grandita ran good race the other day
and should be third Line of Life, Pep
per and Salt and Larry Chiswell are out
siders that have a good chance to be in
the money, and even win.
May Sutton is overdue and if she is
ever going to win a race today looks like
the day. as she has speed and the five
furiong route suits her. She will be no
cinch by any means, as Inspector Bird
should improve over the last out ard
may beat her
Godfather has been running some fair
races at Santa Anita and should get some
part of the money Charlie Doherty has
a good chance to split the top three.
Third Hard to Pick
The third race is an open affair and
six horses figure so close as to make 1t
very hard to separate them. Belmence
is a fast breaken and has enough early
speed to get clear of her field in the first
part of the race, and should be returned
the winner. Canique, on his Oakland
form, is in my opinion the runner up, but
will have to do his best as Alma Boy is
fit and ready and may beat him for>piace.
Paul Clifford Halle Sherman and Med
ding Daisy figure and should be close
up when they go under the wire.
The fifth, maiden race for the 2-year-
olds, is between 'Barbette, Round and
Round and Velma c., and it would not be
surprising to see them finish as named.
F. E. Shaw, Fustian and Chippewa
should furnish all the contention for the
sixth race. F. E. Shaw has been knock
ing at the door in all of his races and
should earn brackets here. Fustian can
do better than his last out, and today
may be his day. Chippewa runs better
on a heavy track but is ready and fit
and should at least be third May beat
her rating and win. Outside of the spa
ghetti horse. Giovanni Ba.erio, the others
have no chance.

GoRGALETTE MAKES OWN
PACE TO WIN LAST RACE

Under Schilling's excellent handling
Gorgalette, favorite for the closing num-
ber, led ali the way in The mile and an
eighth journey and was an easy winner
over Joyner, Christine and five other
platers. Foncasta looked to have a
chance part of the way, but failed when
the pinch came.
Schilling broke in front with Gorgalette
and kept her there, leading his field by
from two to three lengths all the way
around. Christine A was in attendance
on the pace until the final length, wherc
Joyner, which had been placed third,
came along and passed the tired Chris
tine. getting second money by two
lengths.

Polk County observer. (Monmouth, Polk County, Or.) 1888-1927, 1907-08-20

General reports are to the effect that
there will be very fine hop crop
harvested in western Oregon. There
is plenty Of labor to pick the crop, on
the theory that 10000 bales were
picked last year and there was talk OF
a shortage Of labor then. There will
be as many hops this year in Oregon
If the crop is harvested. One thing
that will cut the crop down is the
difficulty renters are having in bor-
rowing picking money, as banks have
shut down on all such cases. except
the land owner will join in the notes
and give an option to sell the crop as
soon as it is in the bale. Unless land
owners come to the relief of the
renters, many rented hop yards will
go without picking. Salem Journal.

He says that the company he repre-
sents, while they formerly carried on
large operations in California, will
hereafter confine their trade more
nearly exclusively to the Oregon mar
kets, since the hops Of the former state
are so poor in quality and picked in
such a slovenly manner that there is
practically no comparison between
them and the product Of our own state.
He adds that the hops raised around
Dallas and Independence are second
to none raised in any portion of the
Pacific Coast in size and quality. Mr..
Spicer will take E. M. Young's place
as representative of the company IN
this district for the remainder OF the
season, while Mr.. Young devotes his
to private business affairs.
