Observation-Disclosures !,

The big fire in Portland Thursday
morning had no effect on the local grain
market although 10000 tons Of wheat,
5000 tons of barley and 1000 tons Of
oats were destroyed. The demand from
California for wheat continues strong
and prices are firm, though unchanged.
The eastern apple market shows
stronger since the big storm, and better
prices are anticipated. Hops are moving
freely and are pretty well cleaned up
in this state and in fact on the coast,
Many contracts are reported as being
made at around the Is cent mark, Eggs
are steady at from is to 10 cents and
will probably not be below that for
some time. The potato market drags
Idaho supplying the demand and keep
ing prices down. IT is estimated there
are 100 carloads yet for shipment in
Oregon. Tho first shipment Of new
potatoes from California reached Port.

 DETROIT, Mich, June 2S.-P. l.. D. Perry, general manager of the Ford Motor Company in England. and H. P White, continental manager with head quarters at Paris, arrived recently on visit to the parent plant at Detroit. The European officials primary ob- ject was to hold a conference with Henry Ford and other executives in connection with Ford business on the other side of the Atlantic.
 Asked regarding the motor industry in England, Mir. Perry said it could hardly be in a more flourishing con- dition. England has been enjoying an unprecedented trade boom for the last three years. Work has been very plentiful and many people have been making money. This, perhaps. has benefited our business more than any other one thing. for the Ford plant is increasing it's output more rapidly than any other Although established la comparatively short time, we are turning out more cars than the five next largest plants put together, and are increasing our capacity as fast as possible We seem to have entered the British field at the psychological mo- ment'

 Small acreage under intensive farm ing in garden produce is vastly more profitable than large acreage de- voted to field crops. acres can be made to produce a greater profit than so acres.
 Intensive farming will increase the population by encouraging the sale Of land in small tracts, where under pres ent conditions of field crops large acreage is necessary to return prof. it.
 Intensive farming brings vastly greater returns for the water used in irrigation.

5000 ROADS SLOGAN OF APACHE CITIZENS
Northeastern County May Expend $235, 1000 for Betterment of It's
 Hiqhways


 That the citizens of Apache county are in the forefront when it comes to sentiment in favor of good roads is seen in the fact that they are plan ming an additional bond issue of s125,000 for this purpose to be raised by the county alone Petitions for the submission of the question to people of the county already have been filed and the proposal will pro- bably be adopted by large majority. Information to this effect was re- gently received by State Engineer Lamar Cobb in letter from one of the prominent citizens of St. Johns.
 In addition to the proposed bond issue of s125,00, the county has al ready set aside s30,OOO for the con- struction of good roads. In case the state bond issue of $5.OO000O is adopted Apache county will have an additional fund of sS0000, making with the proposed county bond issue at least $235,000 for the northeastern county.
 The letter to Engineer Cobb also stated that the state bond issue has met with unanimous approval in Apache county. and that a number of petitions have been circulated there In fact one of the very first of the many good roads petitions filed at the office of the secretary of state came from Holbrook.

 An order was made to have An dersOn sent to England for trial This was impossible at the time, as the only way it could be done was by talk ing him through the United States, when he would no doubt have been seized. The case was still pending when hostilities between the North and South occurred, and nothing further was done by the United States government, and Anderson was finally released.

CAMPBELL SELLS TWO
 1915 MODEL AUTOS
Haynes Local Man Is Awake-New
 Car Attractinu Attention


 Car Attracting Attention George Campbell, the hustling agent for Haynes automobile. has recently received a consignment of the new 1915 models which have the electric gear shift. The Haynes is the first standard car to adopt this form of gear shift and with the other improvements of the new model, the attractiveness and utility of the car has been vastly increased.
 Using such talking nc 'nts as these, Agent Campbell got busy last week and sold two of the new machines Mrs Peter Kraber bought one of them and Mrs. NJ. E. Seargeant took the other one.
 For a weeks business this strikes MT Campbell as pretty good, and he expects to keep up the iick for the bal ance of the fall, and make selling rec ord for the agency for 1915 models

AN INTERESTING PROGRAM
Athletic Exhibition Is Given in the
Gymnasium-ExceIle Musicale
In Enjoyed.

About 1.200 people accepted the in
vitation yesterday to spend their New
Years day At the y. NJ. c. \. From
dinner time until late at night the
visitors came and went, inspecting the
building and watching the games and
exercises in the physical department,
and enjoying the sociability. which
was notably prevalent throughout the
whole affair.
VI. \. Clevett. the physical director,
was the busiest man of all. He spent
the entire afternoon and evening in
the gymnasium, directing the gymna-
SUM classes in their exhibition work.
and working as hare as any member
of the classes through il all. The
work done by the gymnasium men
was remarkable. especially in view Of
the fact that the classes have been
organized and at work for only a
month. From the funny little ''preps,"
who are boys under u. clear on to the
dignified business men and competent
seniors, each class conducted itself
with ability. and put on stunts that
were most entertaining to the crowd
that packed the gallery.
The maze running of some of the
boys classes was a feature that called
forth much applause, as did the must
cal caIisthenics. In all the classes the
marching was done with a precision
and finish that spoke well for the
training given. The volley ball game
between the bankers and business
mems classes was won by the former
after a hot contest, the score being
20 to 81. The senior class was seen
TO advantage in symnastic and march
ing. with relay race by way of whirl-
wind finish.
Fine Work in Swimming Pool.
The swimming pool was the scene
of much fine work. each class spend
ing :. short time in water sports after
leaving the gymnasium, and doing
variety of interesting things.
The value of the spectators galleries
in gymnasium and swimming pool of
the new building was thoroughly dem
onstrated. Even with the generous
provision made in these parts. the &C
were taxed by yester-
days crowd. and it would have been
wellnigh impossible TO care for the
people without such space.
Besides the gymnasium exhibition
work. G. +. Apple entertained a large
but quiet crowd in the game room with
checker games. and music was given
