PRODUCE PRICES AT
REDLANDS ADVANCE

REDLANDS, Feb. 1.-The produce
market here is taking rapid strides,
with oranges bringing a fine price, ap-
pies at the top notch and spuds go
ing up every day. For those who are
raising these products the outlook is
bright, but for those who are depend
ent on the market it is not SO encour-
aging The apple growers at Oak Glen
report the apple crop bringing $1.S5 to
$500 a box. Those who have stored
their crops are of the opinion that they
will get even better prices if they hold
the apples.
With the spuds it seems. two years
ago a japanese got a corner on the
potato market and cleared up a con-
siderable sum, and the man has again
succeeded in getting a corner and the
prices are soaring, which probably will
net the Japanese about 100000.

ITO BE Continued
The Open Trout Season

Fishermen should bear in mind that it
is now contrary to law to fish in waters
inhabited by trout except during the
open season for trout fishing. Under the
old law it was possible to fish for suckers
in trout streams during the close season
as there was no penalty unless it should
be shown that trout were caught. The
privilege was so much abused however,
and so many trout were taken illegally
that the law was changed and there is
now penalty for fishing or attempting
to fish in trout waters at any tine except
when trout fishing is permitted.
1t is now also against the law to catch
or have in ones possession over six
pounds of brook trout in Que day. The
old law allowed the taking If ten pounds.
Including "havIng in possession is de-
signed to make the law more easily en-
forced, as under the old law, fishermen
ii they had over the ten pound limit
would claim that part were caught the
day before.
The other changes in the trout fishing
laws are not important. The penalty for
fishing for hire or for selling trout is
made little more severe and the word
ing is changed so as to be more easily
enforced. Fish wardens are given some
additional powers, being now allowed to
get out warrants on their own complaint
and to serve warrents for fish and game
law violations.
The trout open season remains the
same as before, from May - to August 10.
The open season for lakes and ponds is
now the same as for streams, instead of a
month longer as before.

Haines slowly as he held the girls

Unknown to both, the door leading
from the hall had opened to admit
Senator Langdon into the lower end
Of the room Surprised at the sight

each other he made a sudden gesture

saying. II can settle with this Mr..

finally spoke.

A RESCUE IN THE NICK OF TIM

to his desk in the committee

that Senator Langdon would not re-

The secretary regretfuIly, sorrowful-

of the chronic idealist that was, sud

he saw Hope Georgia Langdon stand

entrance.

"IIl tell father Mr.. any such thing"

no attention. Randolph caught her
arm.

Hope Georgia struggled and pulled

seems right to me, Randolph" she eX-
| claimed. II reckon I've grown up to-
night, and I tell you'll tell all of
you"-she whirled and faced them
there's something wrong here, and
father is going to see Mr.. Haines to-
night. and they are going to settle it."
Norton alone was equal to the situa-
tion, temporarily at least.
IN be fair with you, Hope" he said
reassuringly, and she stopped in her
fight to the hall door. IN take Caro-
lima and Randolph in to see the sena-
tor, and Wen tell him Mr. Haines is
here. Perhaps we had better tell the
senator" Norton suggested, reckoning
to Carolina and her brother. Let Mr..
Haines wait here, and we will make
the situation clear to the senator"
You'd better make it very clear"
exclaimed the younger girl, for I'm
going to stay here with Mr.. Haines I'M
til he has seen father"
The guilty trio, fearful of this new
and uneXplainable activity of Hope
Georgia slowly departed in search of
Senator Langdon to make a last des-
perate attempt to prevent him from
meeting this pestilential secretary that
was-and might be again.
When the door closed after them
Hope came down to the table where
Bud Haines was standing.
Wont you sit down, Mr. Haines"
she said. "Tll-I1l try TO entertain
you until father comes" she said weak
ly. realizing that again she was alone
with the man she loved.

"Goodby, Mr. Haines. Come to-

Bud Haines stood looking after her
thoughtfully.
"What stunning girl she is! I've
seemed to overlook her, with the rush
of events-and Carolina" he murmur-
ed softly. We never were such very
great friends, yet she believes in me.
What beauty she is!'
A messenger boy broke in ON his
musings with a letter for Senator

"Guess I'm secretary enough yet to
answer this" he thought, tearing it
open.

read it. Here's the chance to get to
