This information is for those who do
not happen to have in their home IN.
rary useful books such as Hostettcr, =
almanac or Ayers American Almanac
for 1917 Friday the sun win rise in
Oregon at i;2l and set at 7:33 and tbe
almanac says il will rain, which ism I n
lad guess, considering mat the almanac
was printed about six months ago. And
while the sun is rising in Oregon at
4;2i, down in central California it tar.
ries a little longer and does not appear
until 4:43. But it hasn' 7 as far to travel
down south, hence il sets at 7:lO. Ii
seems Oregon has about 40 more min.
utes of daylight tomorrow than the land
of oranges and the lemon tree.

During the past potato season, since
last October, Mangis Bros. have pad
out more than $4,000 to farmers in
this vicinity. On account of the unus-
ually high prices, this is about $4,000
mere than would have been paid in a
normal year The firm has shipped 140
carloads, about equally divided between
shipments to the east and those to the
south, including Texas. The southern
farmer can raise early potatoes but
these will net keep through the winter.
Hence the south is obliged to buy pota-
toes raised in northern states. The Ore
gon potato is even better than the Cali
fornia product. The price of potatoes
for the past 10 years has averaged be-
tween 81 and $1.25 hundred. This
year the figure went as high as "a a
hundred.

New Stymie Rule
Is Found Wanting

Chicago, July 15.-The new rule of
the Western Golf Association abolish
ing stymies was tried and found want
ing at the Western amateur champion
shin at Midlothian, and the rule was
changed by the board of directors be-
fore the final rounds. in which Francis
Ouimet yesterday won the title from
Kenneth P. Edwards, OF Chicago.
The rule had required that the near
er ball be played first when both balls
we're on the green, thus avoiding sty,
mics. The plan worked we'll IN medal
nlay. as there was no lifting OF the
nearer ball, and an average OF NJ
teen minutes time was taken on an
eighteen-hole round without detrlmen'
to the players, as they were contestlng
the field instead of one man.
When the match play started, now
over. the contestants were loud IN their
clamor for a change in the rule, ana
President Charles F. Thompson, agree
ing with the players, had ne" one
drafted.
The new one still abolshes stymles'
whether due TO the faulty play OF the
owner of the stymed ball or to the
accidental position Of his opponent
hail bnt requires the ball further from
the hole to be played first unless a
stymie exists. In that case the nearer
hall is to be played first or litted' a'
tho ontion of its owner.
