"water wagon" to visit every lumber
camp in the state and tell the men the
facts concerning the illegality and
harmfuIncss of the liquor traffic.
Today the party is making a rapid
tour Of the towns Of the valley in this
vicinity. They speak at Independence,
Corvallis, Albany, Turner, jefferson,

II was heavy enough to dampen things
a little, but not enough TO be any help
TO the dried up hop rIelds. Today mas
been dark and heavy clouds show prom
ise of a good shower inside of the next

would be welcomed by the hop men as
it would wash all of the dust from the

Washington, April 27.-Congress-

establish system through which ma

agricultural lands in aid of agricul-

The bill is very thorough and de-

For long time there has been a
strong demand for a law of this char
