SOUTH BOTTOM

Capital Journal Special Serviee.)
South Bottom, Ore, Jan. 2l.-Fears
have been entertained by loganberry
growers that the low temperature dur
ing the late storm has resulted in kill
ing the vines. The record of the logan
berry is that the vine will endure zero
temperature if matured before entering
winter. As the dry season last fall
thoroughly hardened off the vine it is
not likely that any considerable injury
has been done except possible slight
freezing back of the ends. 1t is safe
to say that nearly one third of the
vines of the total loganberry acreage
are still on the ground. These have
been well protected by the snow and
are safe.
The social circle in tnis community
meets each Saturday night and its
members indulge in games of cards,
conversation and refreshments. These
evenings afford a pleasing variety TO
the long quiet winter months. The
next meeting will be with Mr.. and Mrs.
Frank Lyniff.
Quite number of our people have
passed through a siege of the grip. Mrs.
C. W. Chatfield, who mas been indis-
POSED for some time is now recovering

Mr.. and Mrs. Taylor, parents of
Mrs II. Jerman, have been passing a
few days at the home Of Jerman
Bros Mr.. Taylor had charge of the
exhibits in the Oregon building at the
Panama-P Pleific exposition. Mr.. Tay-
lor is enthusiastic over the advertising
results achieved by Oregon at the ex-
position through its magnificent dis
plays of fruits, vegetables, cereals and
other agricultural and manufactured
products. He believes that the favor
with which the Oregon prune, cherry,
walnut and loganberry were received
by visitors indicates that those prod
ucts alone have won for this state an
enyiable and most favorable reputation
Gmong those looking forward to a
home on the Pacific coast.

The evil feature of the law, however lies in the fact
that the registration officers obliged keep regular
