Letter received by Mr.. Parsons from
Mr.. S. V. Beckwith, manager of the
Rogue River Fruit & Produce Assoeia-
tion, dated February 2Sth. 1916. is in
part as follows:
Answering yours of February 25th
IN which you quote an extract from the
Portland Oregonisn of the 23rd. ], of
course, have no idea where the alleged
information originated to the effect
that you looked favorably upon our
withdrawal from the Northwestern
Fruit Exchange. As to the o her part
of the quotation, il is true that we
have received overtures from both Da-
wilson in New York and from Sieg in
Hood River looking toward an atfilia-
tion with them for the purpose of mar
keting our Newtowns. To these COM
munications have replied that we are
considering and have had offered to Us
several methods for marketing this
coming season. but that it is too early
for US to make any definite plan and
that We would be very glad, without
committing ourselves in any way to
HOOG River, to receive and consider
any suggestion or proposition that they
cared to submit.
In conclusion. wish to say that in
view of all the circumstances | think il
only fair to all concerned that copy of
this letter be sent to MIR. J. II. Rob-
Fbins, president of the Fruit Growers
Agency of Spokane, another copy to
Mr.. c. E. Bassett, senior in charge of
the Government Organization Commit

This leads to the consideration as to
whether railroad credit is as good as

to supply the necessary new facilities

not be coerced. but must be attracted" "
Among the conditions affecting rail-

mentioned the following;
First, Railroad revenues are not
controlled by investors, but are fixed
and limited by governmental authority
and not by one but by several govern.

Second, Railroads cannot control

Fourth The outstanding obligations

VI Fifth. The investor must accept a

Sixth, Other competitive lines Of in

Smiling Away Appendicitis.

Specialists Mt Johns Hopkins uni
versity have joined the Keep on Smil-
ing" cult. Worry, and you will get
a pain in the side," they say. Appen-
dicitis is the medical term for one kind
of pain in the side. These thoughtful
and inquiring doctors, indeed, have
reached the conclusion that mental de-
preston is one of the most frequent
causes of appendicitis, since worry and
faulty mastication usually blend, and
boiling ones food leads directly to dis
order in the appendix. So they rec
ommend smiling and similar light
minded diversions.
The public in general welcomes such
admonitions. For the public does not
particularly enjoy going to hospital
TO permit surgeon to explore and re-
adjust It's interior appurtenances or
fixtures. Almost everyone would prefer
smiling away appendicitis to being
tinkered with and Whitfield by busy
surgeon.
One suspects that there is great
deal of good sense in the Johns Hop
kins doctors free and wholesome adj
vice, which ought to be well digested

The world would scarcely believe

Someone has somewhere said that

Some Mysteries of Turkish
Censorship Are Explained

In all letters from America the
Turkish censor seemed to take the
most personal interest, writes Arthur
Ruhl I'm Golfers. At the end of one
letter of mine from New York he
wrote In pencil: "Please not so long.
Censor"
One DAY had the pleasure Of meet
ing him, or at least that part of him
which handled English correspond
ence-an oxford Turk who could
speak English as well as anybody.
Fancy" said he, ga woman takes
donkey ride over In Anatolia some
where, and writes her husband sixteen
pages about It. Well, now, no one
could read that" So his young men
read the first page and the last, and
the rest they simply lifted out and
into the waste basket
This explained it-those curious let
tiers people had been getting with a
start and a finish and the rest all gone.
Imagine yourself. for instance, separat-
tinent covered with war from those
you care about most and then getting
n letter: IL feel Ii my duty to
tell you the real truth -
then a gap and the conclusion: IF
you act at once. there may still be
time. Yours sincerely. :" Ii
wasn't that the censor objected to
the middle of the letter, but there
wasn't time TO wade through all, and
he merely sent what he could read.

W.. N~x ~seQ
Hosiery Hints.

Frequently when the feet seem
cramped, the blame is placed on the
defective shoe size; but 1t will be
found that in many instances the trou-
bic lies In the wearing Of too small q
stocking.
The marking of sizes varies quite q
little on both stockings and shoes. A
safe rule to follow is to patronize one
shop when the latter has been found
reliable and the size called for is Meth
er too large nor too small, but is COM
Portable in every particular.
1t IS n mistake to wear footwear
that is too large, although the criti-
cism is usually against the adoption
Of small sizes. So much Of the good
appearance and the comfort and happi-
mes of women depends on the nice care
of the feet. that too much attention
cannot be bestowed on the pedal ex-
tremities.
