SPRAY MATERIAL.

We have made arrangements to
handle the Meridian Lime & Sulphur
this coming season, and we believe
you will make no mistake in placing
your orders with US. You know the
good success you had with the Meridi
an brand two years ago, and their
whole endeavor is to keep it on the
same high plane as in the past.
GRASELLI ARSENATE OF LEAD
This brand of Lead was introduced
in the Payette Valley eight years
ago, and it has more than stood the
test every season, and while our
competitors have introduced new
brands each year, we have stuck to
the old reliable "Grasseai." The re-
suits for its users for the past eight
years have continued to give US in
creased business in Arsenate of Lead
sales.

We have purchased the Payette
Evaporator and Intend following the
same policy in the future as the past
season; and that is to pay cash to
the Grower for his Gull Apples.
We have bought about 765 ton Of
Gull Apples this season and at $500
a ton means $4,000 to the Growers of
this vicinity; and our weekly Pay
Roll of $4,000 for twelve weeks has
put about s5ooO.oo more in circulation
among our Payette people.
Next season we expect to be in a
position to dry both Prunes and APP
Piles for our patrons and on a basis
which will be satisfactory to the
growers. No CONFERENCE.-The Loss.

SPECIAL MEETINGS

Some of our friends have asked
US why we do not call our Growers
together during the season. This we
have deemed unnecessary as our
Growers are satisfied and we had no
apologies to make. Our methods of
distribution are we'll known; and we
are so busy saving wood during the
shipping season, and getting returns
to our Growers that we do not have
the time for Specials.

EXPRESS SHIPMENTS.


Our 1918 business in what we call
the Express Commission will total
more than s22, 10000.
This includes Berries of all kinds,
Cherries, Early Apples, Peaches,
Sweet Corn, Cucumbers, Tomatoes,
Celery, WatermeIons, and Canta-
Ioupes. We beg your pardon for US
ing the word Cantaloupes, and to us
as well as to you it is the meanest
word in the Dictionary, and if you
will forgive US for our 1918 record
on Catalogues we will promise you
that we will never handle another
crate of CantaIoupes for you.
Apart from this one article we
think the returns on Express Com
mission business has been fairly sat
isfactory to the Growers.

hess. Mr.. Frohbach and Mr.. Dels-

Each of the Senior, Junior, upper
Sophomore and upper Freshman

officers. The upper Sophomore off
cials are; Kenneth Lilly, president;
Richard Ware, vice-president; Flor

Merton Lowry, class musician. The
Senior meeting was in form of a
class rally, preparations having been
started for a most successful year.
While other things have been hap
pening the football squad has been
daily plugging along in their efforts
to put out championship team.
Within the past week the squad has
increased daily, now totaling A.
There are great many of the men
showing up good form, although it
is early in the training season and
Ashland has prospects of putting out
one of the best and fastest teams the
school has ever known. The team
will probably not be as heavy as
usual, but with such men as Gravy"
Plymate, Bob Spencer. Neal Shinn,
Kenneth Lilly and numerous others
co depend upon, Ashland should have
good chances to clean up the valley.
Under the able coaching of Profess
sor Klum the bunch has been stead
| lily at work and great many OF the
new men have shown up well for SO
early in the season. Many OF the
Freshies have also shown their will
lingness to work and have turned
] out very well.

Ashland Doctors
Have Hard Ride

Doctors Jarvis and Endelman and
Mrs. Jarvis are camping at Dead
wood in the Dead Indian country.
They went up last week with the in
tention of spending two weeks in
the woods. Saturday they were
reached over the phone by an urgent
request for the doctors to come down
and perform an important surgical
operation.
They had two saddle horses in
camp, but as Mrs. Jarvis vas to
come with them it was necessary to
make the trip by wagon. A vehicle
was borrowed from a rancher, but
when it came to harness, there was
not full set to be had on account
of haying operations.
With confidence bora of coping
with emergency cases, they set to
work with a few scraps of old har-
ness and some wire and rope and a
makeshift was manufactured which
filled the bill and held the horses to
the wagon.
The start to town was made at
seven in the evening. After night
fall it was necessary to light the
trail-one of the doctors walking
ahead with lantern while the other
drove. DR.. Endelman preferred this
task and walked fifteen miles down
the difficult road, until the lower
levels precluded the probability OF
mistaking a precipice foi a smooth
strip of road.
At two o'clock Sunday morning the
three weary travellers reached Ash
land and at eleven the operation was
performed for which the trip was
made. In the afternoon they re-
turned to their camp to complete
their outing and will probably return
home Wednesday evening or Thurs
day morning.

The New Quartet
PleaSeS the Elk

Ashland Lodge No. 944, B. P. o.
E., resumed its regular weekly meet
ings for the fall and winter season
last Saturday night. Initiation was
feature of the meeting-with mu-
sic by the new Elks quartet. Dur
Ing the past year the Elks have had
a splendid quartet but it was disor-
ganized by the removal of Ed Wal
colt to Marshfield and the prospec-
tive absence from the city of Roy
Hale, who will sojourn in California
for some time-leaving in the near
future.
The new quartet consists of
Messrs. A. L. Strickland, M. e.
Briggs, ID. d. Norris and Henry End
ers. The quartet has lost nothing of
its old vigor by reorganization and
bids fair to excel anything Ashland
has ever produced in the way of a
male quartet. Mr.. Strickland has
taken the second bass and Mr.. Norris
supplants him as baritone. Messrs.
Briggs and Enders are first and sec
ond tenor, respectively The abili-
ties of Messrs. Strickland and Briggs
are we'll know from past perform
ances. Messrs. Norris and Enders
both have fine voices, we'll con-
trolled. The gentlemen all read we'll
and under the tutelage of Prof. Mac
Murray are expecting to make great
progress this winter.

Wrecks His Auto
To Save People

Word reached Ashland Sunday
evening that a serious accident had
befallen Alex Livingston and party
near Crater Lake. Details were hard
to secure-though a telegram from
klamath Falls Monday assured Ash
land friends that injuries were not
evening, when the party reached
Ashland by train, that the details
were. known.
The party consisted of Mr.. and
Mrs. Livingston, his brother-in-law,
Mr.. Bachand, and Mrs. Walter Fru-
Ian in the Livingston Overland and
Joe Poor and wife and Ed Bush and
wife in Mr.. Poor's big new Schaat
car. The party left Hartman Lodge
and were about twelve miles from
klamath Falls when they struck a
steep downgrade. The Livingston
car was in the lead bowling along
on intermediate gear.
AS he struck the grade Alex at
tempted to change speeds but his
clutch failed to work The brakes
were set but had little effect In a
few seconds the car was plunging
along at twenty-five miles an hour
and gaining momentum rapidly. A
sharp switchback curve loomed up
where the road rounds the head of a
canyon a thousand feet deep.
Being Southern Pacific en-
gineer, Alex knows something of
speeds and curves and realized he
could never make it without plung-
ing over the precipice. Get ready
I'm going to ditch it," he shouted
over his shoulder and steered
straight ahead for the side of the
mountain.
Alex was the only one who stayed
in the car, the steering wheel crash
ing against his brawny chest with an
impact that would have killed the
average man. Mrs. Livingston and
Mrs. Frulan were hurled clear of the
machine into the road. Mr. Bachand
plunged straight ahead and was only
saved from crashing into the rocks
by landing among the branches of
some low trees.
The ladies were badly bruised and
terribly shocked but Mrs. Frulan
was able to go back down the road
and flag the Poor car before it
crashed into them. Immediately fol-
lowing the crash-while Mr.. Bach
and was still clambering out of the
treetops-an auto appeared at the
curve, coming upgrade. Had Mr..
Livingston not ditched his car the
two must have crashed head-on at
the curve with frightful loss Of
life.
Yhe Poor car arrived on the scene
in time to render assistance and help
take an inventory of the damages.
Mrs. Livingston was found to be suf-
fering from a badly bruised thigh
and Mr.. Livingston from the blow
on his chest. The others were hurt
less painfully. The car was a wreck
one wheel gone, the radiator
smashed, the engine out of commits
sion and things jammed up general
ly. 1t was left at the roadside. Mr..
Poor took the entire party into his
car and ran the twelve miles into
Klamath Falls on low gear.
Mr. Livingston was unconscious
when they reached the city. Broth
er Elks rallied to the rescue and did
all they could for the party. Others
went out with truck and took the
auto apart and brought it to town.
Tuesday morning the four injured
people left by train for Ashland

for Redding and, as it happened, the
two men were getting on the same
train as he got off-having apparent
ly become alarmed and abandoned
the car at Redding.
Mr.. Mulby had the men arrested
and held at Redding and started
back with the car to Portland. When
he got as far as Ashland he received
a message to leave the car here and
go back to Redding and attend to
getting the men back to the scene
of their crime.
