THE FLAVOR OF
''SPEAR HEAD"
IS UNIQUE
A Chew That Has Been Famous for
a Third Of a Century
HAS THE RICH RED BURLEY TASTE

Chewing is the only way to get the
rich taste of the tobacco leaf. And
the only form of tobacco in which you
get the leaf as Nature made it is the
plug form.
A chew of Spear Head plug tobacco
has a wonderful flavor such as you
never did and never will taste in any
other tobacco.
That Spear Head favor is unique,
mellow, fruity, everlastingly delicious
and satisfying.
Spear Head has been famous for a
third of century as the richest, tasti-
est of chews.
It's made OF sun-ripened, red Bur-
ley. And it's produced by the most
modern methods, which develop the
luscious favor of the leaf to the SUI
preme degree.
1t is safeguarded at every step in its
making. The factory is clean and SAN
itary-the processes are pure-food pro-
cesses.
When the choice red Burley has been
pressed into mellow. sweet Spear Head
plugs you have chew that simply can't
be equalled.
Spear Head is the high quality
chew OF the world.
Try Spear Head-you'll never
again be satisfied with any other
chew. In l0c cuts, wrapped in wax
paper.

BUYERS ARE AFTER
/ OREGON GREEN PRUNES
Failure Of Idaho Crop Creates
: Unusual Demand for East
eln Shipment

F. V. Martin, of Boise, Idaho, north.
west representative of the Earl Fruit
company, is seeking to buy large quaint.
ties of green prunes in this territory for
shipment east. He is offering $3.50 a
car of 1000 boxes, cash f. o. b. Salem
or other shipping points. This is, how
ever, only the advance price, and if the
prunes sell higher in the market the
growers will receive their share of the
profit. This offer guarantees the
grower good profit, and Mr.. Martin is
anxious to secure several hundred car
loads.
While quite large part of the dried
prune crop has already been sold at a
good figure, the price for the product
has slumped, owing to the extremely
large crop in the states of Oregon and
Washington, and the sale of a large
quantity in the green stage would have
the effect of reducing the apparent sur
plus and make the price firmer for the
yet unsold portion of the dried output.
The demand for the green product is
due largely to the fact that the big
Idaho crop is total failure due to an
unusual cold spell during the spring.
Idaho prunes were shipped east in the
green stage and buyers are now looking
around to secure supply to take their
place.
Mr.. Martin is now in Oregon and
Washington comforting with growers
and dealers with view to securing
consignments on the terms mentioned
above,

Death of Mrs. John I. Jones.
Clara E. Jones (nee Green) wife of
John /. Jones, died suddenly at her
home, of heart failure, Sunday, after
noon, August 6. 1916. Her passing was
shock both to the community and
her family, for although in the winter
and early spring she had been confined
to the house with grip and pneumonia
and had convalesced slowly, she had
improved greatly with the coming of
warm weather and was able to care
for her household. She had just re-
her husband and sons, when the end
came.
Mrs. Jones was native of Iowa,
born in 1861, being past So years Of
age. She came to Oregon with her
family ten years ago and located on
a homestead at Powell Butte, and had
been a resident of Gervais for little
over year. She is survived by her
husband and sons, Ralph and Raymond,
and by brother in Los Angeles, Calf,
and another in iowa.
The services were held at the family
home Tuesday afternoon and interment
was in the Masonic cemetery.
Mrs. Jones was devoted wife and
mother.
