Will Increase Contracts
to Get Two Unit Plant

At the meeting held Saturday after
noon at the headquarters of the Salem
Fruit Union between the growers of
this vicinity and representatives of the
Wittenberg King Co. sufficient acre
age was contracted for to assure a one
unit plant. But with additional acre
age, the company will erect a two unit
plant and to secure this acreage nee
essary, Robert Paulus and others will
drive into the country to give those
who desire an opportunity to sign con
tracts.
The prices offered in the contract
by the Wittenberg King company are
on the average much higher than have
been received by the farmers for their
products during the last few years.
About 65 per cent Of the amount nee
essary for the two unit plant was con
tracted for Saturday and to secure the
tonnage necessary. Mr. Paulus will put
in his time this week As the business
increases from year to year, it is the
plans of the Wittenberg King company
to build additional units.

OF COMING PITCHERS
In First Game Held the PhiIEes
To One Run and
Six Hits
BY H. @. Hamilton.

Omitted Press Staff Correspondent
New York, April 24.-wilbert Rob
inson added another name to his long
string of pitching successes and Leon
cadore added a steady job to his peace
of mind today.
CadOre, starting in his first game un-
der big league fire, held the Phillies to
one run and six hits
One game doesn t make big league
pitcher. Two games doesn't do it but
if the shility to do one stunt of this
kind lies in a pitchers arm, there
must be something permanent there.
Cadore, pitted against veteran, smash
ing team like the Phillies, went along
in an easy, well planned fashion, held
up his head in the pinches and became
member of the troop of young
pitchers rapidly displaeing the old
names in the big leagues.

Clark is Bitter.


Washington, April "a. - Speaker
Champ Clark is bitterly opposed to a
conscription army system as against
the volunteer method.
He told a delegation from the Nation
al Security League today that he would
never vote for conscription. The dele
cation presented Clark with petition
bearing one million names of persons
who think the volunteer system wrong.
The members asked Clark "as head of
the popular branch of the national leg
islature," to vote for straight con.
scription system.
"I'd never vote for such a plan, - de-
clared Clark with heat. "Such bill
never will pass. The war department
is trying to bulldoze the country into
approving conscription. The best arm

GRAZING FEES ANNOUNCED
FROM DENVER

An increase of % per cent in the
grazing fees on all national forests.
instead of 33 1-3 per cent as was
originally contemplated, will be made
for the season of 1917, according to
the plan announced by Secretary
Houston, today, thru the local Forest
headquarters. Subsequent increases
will be based on study of the local
condition on the individual forests,
and will vary in accordance with the
facts thus obtained.
"The timber, grazing, water pow
er and other resources of the nation
al forests which are used for com
mercial purposes should be charged
for at rate which represents their
fair value" said Secretary Houston.
"If charge only sufficient to cover
the cost of administration were made
all of the profit from the CONNER
cial use of the national forests would
go to comparatively few individ-
uals instead of to all the people to
whom they belong and who are en-
titled to share their benefits. The
charge for grazing should be based
upon the real value of the forage ON
the national forest ranges, as deter
mined by careful survey of all the
facts and not by competitive bids, as
required in timber sales"
whether or not the fees charged
at present represent fair value OF
the forage is the question to be de
cided. The facts before me clearly
indicate that the present charge does
not represent the full value of graz
ing privileges on the national for
ests."
Modification Of the original plan
was decided upon the Secretary said,
because of the possibility of vari-
alton in the real value of grazing on
| different forests or in different To-
calities, and because in a few in-
stances the full proposed increase
might not be justified. A specific
study, he stated, will be made of the
existing conditions upon each of the
national forests. Upon the basis OF
the facts thus obtained, additional
increases will be made when the
real value OF the forage upon any
forest is found to be more than the
amount charged. No additional in.
crease will be made before March
1918.

GERMANY WILL NOT
MODIFY CAMP PAIGN
While Hoping No Overt Act Will Cause Declaration
of War, Presidents Associates feel That
Such Action is Only Matter of Time

WASHINGTON, D. c., Feb. -
The United States is now within the
danger zone" of the German and
American relations. In view Of Sec
retary Zimmerman's utterances Off
oials believe that Germany will go
thu with its submarine campaign.
The general situation is described
as being the same as Saturday.
While hoping no overt act will ne
cessitate more vigorous action, the
Presidents associates feel it is mere
y a matter of time before some over
Jealous commander will make a fat
al move. Each incident less q day
however brings better chances Of es-
Gaping an armed clash.
The Eavestone attack looks most
serious but no decision has been
reached. No American ships are
sailing now. The diplomatic break
served the same purpose as an offic-
ial warning against voyages.

THE IRON STRUGGLE

A British firm of munition makers
has underbid American manufacturers
by 5000 per shell on a submitted CON
tract to supply the United States
navy with munitions. Not only was
the price much lower, but the time
in which it was agreed to complete
the order was much shorter.
This surprising response from a
nation at war has been interpreted
variously. Some have regarded it as
an indication that Great Britain an
ticipated an early peace. 1t is open
to that construction. On the other
hand, it may have been merely a
shrewd way of advertising the indus
trial efficiency that has been attain
ed in England. This purpose, at
least it serves; and it cannot fail to
make a strong impression on neutrals
and on Britain's enemies.
We will be dull, indeed, IL we miss
the Significance of the incident in
the light it throws upon the after
the-war possibilities. Peace will
bring the iron struggle of trade, and
the word "iron" is used with double
meaning. 1t denotes both the keen
ness of the conflict aud the material
that will enter largely into the work
of repairing the shattered structure
of Europe and developing the mar
kets of the world for the output oil

so handled large number of cars
IRON the San Luis valley, for all Of
which they paid spot cash. AIR. Casey
at this time is conferring with the

the potatoes ne can get this fall, and
the chances are that large acreage
will be planted. The conditions of
this proposition are that the best
varieties be grown and that they be
graded in best marketable manner.
Mr. Caseys firm will contract he
says to pay the market price on the
day the potatoes are loaded on cars,
in cash on day loaded, less ten per
cent for handling. AT this time he is
buying all the good spuds here that
ne can get and paying We under

chance for the farmers organiza-
tons to connect up with a cash buy
er for a crop that with proper care
IS always a winner here. Ten acres
of potatoes on a farm each year viii
enable the grower to buy a new
farm every ten years, says Mr..
