On the second day after the news
OF the passing OF the dividend Chesa-
peake and Ohio did not reach the low
price of last week. Apparently the short
position in the market for the stock

from persons who wish to get a stock
that pays something.

THE sTUDEBAKER IS POPULAR.
California Sales Last Year Are Al
most Unbelievable.

Mr.. C. j. Shreve, local representa-
tive of the Studebaker cars, says:
"The number of Studebaker auto
mobile sold in California last year
would be almost unbelievable by one
unacquainted with the car were the
figures not given out officially by the
state itself. Thirteen thousand three
hundred thirty-six Studebakers were
sold and delivered, number of thou
sands in excess of any other machine
listed to sell at over $3.50.
GAS the 1915 sales are already
above what they were for the same
period of time in 1914, they increased
over 400 per cent last year, there is
no doubt in the world that this year
will set the record far above last.
Studebaker dealers are already dis
counting the sale of 10000 machines
by speculating on how many will be
sold in excess of that number. The
Studebaker is one of the most popu-
lar cars in Oregon today and is IA
vorite with the people,"

MANY UNCERTAIN FACTORS.
Course of This Years Hop Market
Cannot Be Forecasted.

Whether new-crop hops will sell at
record prices this year or whether
they will not bring what it costs to
grow them are questions hopmen
would like to answer but cannot.
There are so many uncertain con-
ditions confronting the trade that it
would be hazardous to make a guess
as to the probable course of prices.
Circumstances may arise that will
send the market to either extreme. 1t
is not beyond the range of possibility
in these war times for events to oc-
eur between now and next winter
that will put prices on higher plane
than known in recent years. 1t must
be acknowledged, however, that all
the signs at present point to dimin-
ished rather than an enlarged use of
rev Pacific hops. In the domestic
trade consumption is likely to be re-
duced without any corresponding de-
cline in output. Dry territory is
steadily growing and the effect of
prohibition laws'is already seen in the
efforts of brewers in some of the
states to dispose of their reserve sup
ply of hops. In the meantime Ameri-
can growers are preparing to harvest
big crop, and if weather conditions
are right the yield may be a bumper
one.

PLAY AT SPRING VALLEY.
Parent Teachers Association There
Gives Two Splendid Plays.

The plays staged at Spring Valley
under the auspices of the Parent
Teacher association were a marked
success. The Messrs. Larkins, in
their comic Irish roles, were the hit OF
the evening. Mr.. Guy Simkins, as
Jason the farmer, and his friend, Josh
Arrowroot (Lloyd Simkins) were
hard to beat. Eugene Kirkwood, a
tramp, flirting with an orphan girl
whom Arlie Simkins as Malcolm Gray
the william, and Mrs. Fenton as Mrs.
Glimmer, painted grass widow from
the city, are trying to abduct, was
very comical. Mrs. Kirkwood played
the role of waif and orphan with sue
cess. Miss Rebecca Linstroom, as the
farmers old maid sister, Becky, was
the best acted part in the play. Miss
Mabel Smith, as the secretly married
wife of Malcolm Gray, did excellent
work in all three acts.
Those from Lone Star were Mr..
Claude Larken and Mrs. Fenton,
Lloyd Larkin, Ersel Martin, Kathryn
Brigham. Those from Spring Valley
were Guy and Lloyd Simkins, Mr.. and
Mrs. Eugene Kirkwood, Miss Rebecca
Linstrom.
Miss Mabel Smith, Miss Georgia
Simkins, Hazel Ray and Belle Fosnot
were the girls and maid in the play,
"a Case of Suspension" Miss Brig
ham playing the role of matron OF the
select girls seminary. Elmer Ray, in
the role of professor, and Lloyd Lar
kin, as the hired man, were successes.
Messrs. Jack Simkins, Ersel Martin
and Delmar Versteg were the college
boys who were invited to the girls
spread. Mrs. Ray and Mrs. Fosnot
gave some much appreciated help to
the play, ga Case of Suspension y
and by their help made it success.
The money received for the ban
dana baskets was $2O. 1t VIII be
used to buy play apparatus for Spring
valleys school, after the expenses OF
the play has been deducted.
Miss Viva Ray sang at the opening
of the program, "Why Did You Make
Me Love You?"
Mr.. and Mrs. John Fosnot played
between the plays and Mr.. Bush and
Mrs. Simkins played between the
acts of "The Old Dairy Homestead.
Mrs. Fenton and Mr.. Claude Larkin
sang ats a Long Way to Upper
ary' as a duet.

FIRST HALF ENDS WEDNESDAY.
Taxpayers Subject to Interest Penal
ty After That Day.

Next Wednesday will be the last
day on which first half payment taxes
will be received without interest. Af-
ter March 81 all taxes, the first half
of which has not been paid, will be
subject to interest at the rate of l per
cent per month until August 81, when
they become delinquent and subject
to a 10 per cent penalty and II per
cent interest per snnum. First half
payments made by March 81 entitle
taxpayers to defer second half pay
ments until September 30. After that
date the second half becomes delin-
quent and subject to the 10 per cent
penalty and II per cent interest.
Persons making first half payments
by March 81 should not proffer second
half payments until after May %, as
the old tax law will not be superseded
until that date and interest must be
collected under its terms until May
%. Taxpayers can make payments
only in half or full amounts. Many
taxpayers who have offered checks for
over half payments have been COM
PEELED to write new checks because the
law provides only for half or full pay
ments.
County Treasurer Holman is now
experiencing a rush, and this will
probably gain momentum until the
closing hour on the last day Of the
many hold back their pay
ments as long as possible.

Takes One Back to
Older, Days of 40

Word to the Times Republican from
Nathaniel C. Tarleton, 215 North Sec
ond avenue, who. with his son Benja-
min, left here July on an auto trip
to the coast, tells some Of the interest
ing things Mr.. Tarleton is encountering
on his journey, and gives good idea
OF conditions in the yariouS states thru
which the tourist passes.
Soon after leaving Iowa Mr.. Tarleton
met with muddy roads in Nebraska, and
was stranded for a day or so at Odessa.
Many tourists loaded their cars at
kearney and shipped them on to Ogal-
lala. Mr.. Tarleton writes from near
Carson City, New. where he says the
crops of hay and grain are in fine con-
dition. Prices there remind one of the
days of 40, says Mr.. Tarleton, as a
shave is 25 cents and a hair cut SO
cents. When he lost the radiator cap
to his Ford car Mr.. Tarleton had to pay
81 for new one. altho he remarks that
had he been in Iowa he could easily
have used a corn cob" In Utah a
farmer charged the tourists 10 cents for
seven gallons of water. and had chain
and paddock on his gate leading to the
we'll, but he had 800 acres of wheat
ready to harvest, and his brother was
running two double headers to a
threshing machine.
Good mountain roads abound in Utah
and Nevada. says Mr. Tarleton, but
the plains and desert roads are bad,
and a great many cars are stranded
because of broken aNles and springs.
Mr.. Tarleton and his son carry a
camp outfit and sleep and cook out
states that altho there are some fine
fruit farms near Salt Lake City, the
writer much prefers corn. cattle and
hogs" Fruits are not much cheaper in
the land where they are raised in
abundance especially oranges.
