Hardy Loses
Hotel Suit

By decree rendered in circuit
court last Monday, Stephen Smeed,
owner of the Hotel Smeed at Eugene,
won his case against N. D. Hardy,
former lessee of the building, and
former Ashland hotel man. He sued
Mr.. Hardy some time ago for a disso-
luton of the contract made between
the two.
The findings OF fact handed down
by the judge show that on September
30, 1914, Hardy was indebted to
Smeed in the sum of $4,000. Hardy
delivered to Smeed a promissory note
and executed a chattel mortgage on
the furniture of the hotel. March 6,
1915, the defendant, for the purpose
of paying the Indebtedness, agreed
that the plaintiff should be the abso-
lutte owner Of the property and the
mortgage was cancelled. On Septem-
ber 5, 1915, he entered into an agree
ment whereby Hardy was to assist
Smeed in the operation of the hotel,
Smeed to furnish the hotel and equip
ment and Hardy to furnish the serv-
ices and management, Hardy to re-
ceive one-third of the profits and
Smeed two-thirds, in addition Hardy
and his wife getting their board and
lodging. Prior to December 81, 1915,
the plaintiff gave notice to Hardy
that he desired to terminate the con-
tract, but the latter refused to relin-
quish. Afterwards a receiver was ap-
pointed.

Gold Hill MunitiOn
Plant Big Hoax

Portland Journal: The other day
a tip came into the office that the
Beaver Portland Cement plant at Gold
Hill was going to make 81, 100000 in
about UNITY months manufacturing
munitions of war.
The story is said by officers of the
company in the Northwestern Bank
building to be one of the most fan
tastic and grotesque jokes they have
ever heard.
The president is now in the east
trying to hurry up some machinery
that has been held back by stress of
war orders at the factory. In the
other work about the plant
is going on, so that everything is
nearly ready for starting cement-mak-
ing operations as soon as machinery
comes.

FRUIT and FARM

ceive attention is to be sure that the
field is clean. Never plant on ground
where diseased potatoes have been
harvested within the last few years.
A few diseases may live in the
ground for many years and are ready
to infect potatoes whenever planted.
Plant on different ground each year
and follow each crop with a grain
rotation for several years, which will
starve out the disease germs.
Other articles will follow discuss
ing summer spraying for diseases and
insects. Gail the attention of this
office to any troubles you are havl
ing. Always be on the lookout for
the potato eelworm, potato tuber
moth and the potato beetle and re-
port their presence if found.
On January 20 the State Board of
Horticulture passed a quarantine
measure against California potatoes
because of the potato tuber moth
found in that state. Any potatoes
into this state from Califor-
MIA must go to Portland for inspec-
ton, and if any tuber moth is found
the whole shipment is returned. This
method is an excellent precautionary
measure. c. c. CATE,

Big New Coast
Auto Factory

Oakland, Cal, March 4.-The first
important step toward making this
vicinity big automobile manufacture
ing center was taken yesterday when
ground was broken for the establish
ment of the factory of the Chevrolet
Motor Car Company in Elmhurst.
With parade of several hundred au-
tomobiles, some of them carrying the
mayor and city officials of Oakland
and representatives of the Oakland
Chamber of Commerce and other civic
organizations, the ground-breaking
celebration was one of the big events
in the commercial history of the
transbay city.
Work on the factory which is to
turn out $4,000 Chevrolet cars annu-
ally will be rushed. 1t is the plan of
Norman DeVaux, president of the
Chevrolet Motor Company of Califor-
mia, to start the production of ma
chimes as soon as possible, the first
cars being scheduled for delivery June
1. The plant will employ about 600
men. 1t covers nine acres and will
represent an investment of $1,000
900.
This will be the largest automobile
plant west of Chicago, and one of the
largest and best equipped automobile
factories in the United States.

hours sublime and by its soft and gracious it
soothes the soul and rests the nerves. and fills my
bosom, once again. with peace on earth, good will
to men, But best like it when I've fed this face Of
mine with jam and bread When have dined on Irish
stew and beans and boiled potatoes, too. and pie
and eggs and cheese and trpe, It's then best enjoy
my pipe. When from the table withdraw, grip
my briar with my jaw, and fill it with Tuxedo mild

perfect bliss; no pleasure can compare with this.
And in the curling smoke see world that seemeth
good to me. A world that's debonair and gay, its
woes and worries done away. The plans that seemed
foredoomed to fail the work that seemed Of no avail
now wear the rosy glow Of hope, and endorse all
sunshine dope. Tis thus in my Tuxedo hour; the
world that seemed so dark and dour is blooming like
rose Of spring. and I'm in mood to laugh and sing

Before Planting the Potatoes, Treat
Them.

Before Planting the Potatoes, Treat
Them.
Small yields of potatoes are due to
unfavorable soil conditions, poor,
soil, poor selection, diseases and in
sects. Chief among these troubles,
diseases is an important factor in re-
ducing the crop. Oftentimes one-half
of the crop may be lost entirely and
the remainder so disfigured that they
bring a very low price on the mar
ket.
The key to the whole situation is
proper selection and treatment Of
seed potatoes and planting on clean
ground. The diseases fall into two
general classes, namely, superficial
and internal. The superficial forms
should be readily detected, but this
is not always so with the internal
forms. If in doubt bring sample to
this office for examination.
Clean Seed Potatoes.
Consider no seed for planting un'
less it is entirely clean and smooth.
Insist upon this when purchasing the
seed. If it is impossible to get dis
ease-free seed, make . very careful
selection, discarding any that may
be diseased. Cut up some Of the po
tatoes to be sure that there are no
brown specks or other unnatural pc
culiarities in the flesh. This seed
you have selected is seemingly clean
but there may be untold numbers OF
disease germs adhering to the surface
of every potato, and to insure their
destruction the potatoes must be
treated.
Method of Treatment.
Formaldehyde, one pint to 80 gal
Ions of water is the general disin- !
fectant used in Oregon. The pota-
toes are soaked whole in this sou-
tion for two hours. Any containers /
such as sacks, boxes or baskets into
which the potatoes are to be trans
fered after treatment should be care
fully sprinkled with the dsinfectant
so as to prevent reinfection. Now
that the seed is as clean as we can
make it, the next precGution to re-

Fighting Is on.

FL Paso, Tex, Nov. 11.-Fighting
between Villa bandits and de facto
government troops, under command of
General Trevino, is reported to be rag
ing near the smelter on the outskirts
of Chihuahua City. The Villistas at
tackled this section of the capital late
yesterday afternoon and General Tre-
vino has drawn all his outposts into
the city. This information was re-
ceived here last night by military
headquarters.
Ten days have elapsed since the
Villistas occupied Parral and no word
has been heard from that mining city
and no news has been received as to
the fate of foreigners known to have
been in the city. American mining
officials here, employers of the men,
cannot understand why they have re,
ceived no news from their employees
and fear that they have been mur'
dered by the bandits.

during it can yet foresee. William

special note referring to President
Wilson, says:
The recources of the European

its personalities so inspiring that it
