heavy bearing. The loganberry OF
the Rogue valley leads that Of any
other section Of the state in quality.
The warm sunshine of the ripening
period gives a larger sugar content
than the product OF the districts Of
heavier rainfall and there is never
loss from storms during the picking
season. A thousand acres OF this
fruit should be planted In the Grants
Pass district as rapidly as IT can be
done. The Willamette valley has
been specializing on this fruit for the
past two or three years, and hundreds
of acres are now being planted there.
The returns that are realized from
this crop are shown in the following
from a recent issue OF Salem paper:
"T gathered an average OF twelve
Thousand two hundred pounds OF ripe
loganberries from each acre OF my
yard last summer
This Is the startling statement
made by A. NJ. LaFollette. the we'll
known fruitgrower Of Mission Bot
tom.
""These are the weights furnished
me by the cannery people, mind you,
to whom I sold the crop he contin-
ued, and from whom received my
pay at four cents per pound, footing
up to s4Ss gross per acre, or about
$3.50 net returns.
1T is clearly seen that when Judge
Logan OF Santa Cruz, California,
placed the almost invisible pollen of
red raspberry bloom on the blossom
OF species OF wild blackberry he
performed what may, in sense, be
regarded as a horticultural miracle.
1t was from the seed OF the fruit re-
sulting from this cross pollenization
that the loganberry sprang, and
which, in quality and yield, is meet
ing with great favor with consumer
as we'll as with the commercial grow
er.
"Mr. LaFollette says he was the
FIRST extensive grower of loganberries
in the Willamette valley, II not in
Oregon. He set out his tract fifteen
years ago.
The plants were set In heavy river
bottom loan, near his residence In
Mission Bottom. The soil Is sedi-
mentary, having been brought in by
the overflow of the river, which fire.
quently rises above the trellis.
Though growing big yields since
planting, the vines have never been
fortified, except the disking of the
old canes back into the ground after
they had been cut on.
1T Is a remarkable fact that the
loganberry finds most congenial
home in the Willamette valley. Take
the results In the LaFollette tract
as an illustration. Here ESQ vines
produced last year IS pounds of de-
lIcious fruit, or 500 commercial
crates.
"If the juice from the berries which
were taken from one acre of those
vines had been extracted II would I'll
IS4 barrels OF 40 gallons each ThiI
product, II sold at the low valuation
OF Ave cents per pint, would have re
turned total OF s544 per acre to tn
grower. II is anticipated by thos
best acquainted with the industry
that large part OF the loganberr
yield In the near future will find It
way into the market in the form o
Itha extracted mice"

The city council met yesterday
afternoon, Mayor Symmes presiding

City Clerk Harry Fitton was instruct

The First National Bank and Lew

ADDISON l.. TAYLOR
TAKES HIS OWN LIFE
RANCHER NEAR DENTON, WHILE
DERANGED, CUTS HIS
THROAT.

An inquest over the body of the late
H. Taylor, found lying in a field at
the Horseshoe Bar ranch. some six
teen miles northwest of Lewistown,
Wednesday, by Charles Siegler, was
completed Friday night and verdict
of suicide was returned ny the jurors,
C, H. Seeley, l. M. Hobensack, X. e..
Jackson, Henry Greiner, j. A. kleine
and Otto H. klemm. County Attor-
ney C. ]. Marshall conducted the in
uuiry and developed all the facts con-
nected with the sad affair, the testi-
mony showing that Taylor, while tenn
porarily insane, had cut his throat.
The body was first ordered shipped
to Canton, ILL.,, the decedent's former
home, for interment, instructions hay-
ing been received by wire by Coroner
George R. Creel from Taylor's father.
Later another telegram came request
ing that the interment be made here
and the funeral was held Sunday from
Creel's parlOrs, Rev. Z. l.. White Of
ficiating.
The decedent owned a ranch near
Denton and had resided there for
some three years. He was thirty
eight years of age and unmarried.
Two years ago his father came out
to visit him and spent some time in
Lewistown. Taylor was an industrl-
Gus man Of excellent character and
was getting along all right, but OF
late had shown some peculiar actions.
This was not marked enough to at
tract attention. Last Sunday he start
ed for Lewistown on horseback and
was seen about noon Of that day near
the Horseshoe Bar ranch. He evil
dently went into the field during the
afternoon and, dismounting, acted on
the impulse at self-destruction. Evi-
dently he first slashed his wrist with
small pocket knife and then cut
his throat. That the injuries were
not Immediately fatal was shown by
the fact that the knife was found
some distance from the point where
the body was lying, the grass being
trampled down in both places. Along
about dark peculiar moaning sound
was heard at the Huber ranch house,
some two hundred yards from the
place where the body was found, but
the tall grass prevented any one from
seeing the man, who was then lying
down in the grass. Wednesday, Bart
Noble, who had noticed a saddled
horse roaming about the field, went
over to investigate and Mr.. Siegler
found the body as stated.

day and Thursday to fair-sized audi
ences, but the attendance was so far
below what Manager Culver had ex-
pected that he concluded to cancel the
arrangement with the Allardt-Mooser-
Voolfolk circuit for these high-class
musical companies once week. It
was finally decided, however to bring
in the best of this syndicate's travel
ing companies this week, presenting
"The Time, the Place and the Girl"
This is company of about twenty
people, headed by Thomas Whiffin and
Jessie Houston, the noted musical
comedy stars who created the parts
of Johnny Hicks" and Margaret
Simpson" in the original New York
production. They gave the production
it's record Of 400 nights in Chicago and
plenty of Lewistown people have seen
Mr.. Whiffin and Miss Houston in this
piece of musical nonsense. It is true
that these companies are presented
at the larger cities right on their
route at lower price of admission,
but there the show is rushed, two per-
formances are given and the houses
are very much larger. To bring the
"Time, the Place and the Girl" COM
pany here from Bozeman means an
expenditure of 5000 or more for rail-
way fares and excess baggage alone.
However, the fame of this tuneful
comedy, as we'll as the reputation of
Whiffin and Miss Houston, will doubt
less be enough to insure big houses
Wednesday and Thursday nights.
The Bijou.
1t is a right nifty little show that
the Bijou has on, with Miss Hazel
Ashmore in her exceptionally clever
monologue and readings. Her act
made great hit last evening. Then
there are Kimball Bros, the 'jolly
messenger boys" who combine mirth,
melody and motion. There will be a
partial change this evening, with a
new feature film.
Thursday evening Edward HIN and
Marie Girard will be the chief vaude-
vile attractions, and Hazel Ashmore's
act has proved so popular with the
patrons of the house that she will be
held over to finish the week.
Crowded houses last night, in the
face of extraordinary counter attrac-
tiOns, indicate that the bill now being
offered is one Of exceptional merit.
