therefore excluded as being dangerous
to health. These poisonous beans are
varieties of lime beans of various col.
ors, and in shape may not be unlike
the common navy bean. On careful in

from the common bean by the fact
that, unlike the common bean, they

There are also other less noticeable

PRUNE GROWERS
WILL DECIDE PRICE
Asked to Meet at Portland For
This Purpose by Federal
Boari

Prune growers in the state of Ore.
gon will soon be called upon to meet
and name price that will be satisfac-
tory for the 1918 crop. F. W. Steus-
loss, county food administrator, today
received the following letter from the
federal food administration:
"Please call at once a meeting Of all
the prune growers in your county to Sc
lect delegates to a meeting of prune
growers in connection with this of.
flee, for the purpose of naming prices
for the 1913 crop. This meeting will
be held at Portland July 2. We are de-
pending upon you to get this informa,
tion to your growers as no notice will
be sent from this office. "
As soon as Robert Paurus, manager
of the Salem Fruit Union, returns from
Roseburg, a meeting will be called OF
growers in the county to select dele
gates for the July 2 convention.
A few weeks ago California prune
grower met and agreed on an S1h cent
basis,with premium ON 80 IS and 40 Is
1t is pretty we'll understood that the
federal food administration regards
this as pretty generous figure.
The official bulletin, published at
Washington, D. c., in its issue of
June IS says: "The food administra-
ton issues the following: Maximum
reasonable prices to growers for the
1918 prune and raisin crops, recon-
mended by growers in California, have
been accepted by the food administers
tion. Prune growers are to receive not
more than S1a cents per pound basis
net. This price is larger than was ex-
pected to be, but conferences of grow
ers, both association and Independent,
held by the California food admins
traitor, demonstrated that the general
labor situation, increased costs and
probable prune shortage justifies the
price recommended.
"Later conferences will determine
the margin to be allowed various hand
les Of the crops, after which retail
prices can be computed. This will re-
suit in stabilized prices for the con-
sumers. Future selling and speculation
which has caused nigh prices in the
past, will thus be eliminated.

SUBSCRIPTIONS TOTAL
$4,000 IN SALEM
Thirty Captains In Charge d
Work Make Their Reports
at Noon Today

Subscriptions amounting to 1888
were reported today noon by the SO
captains in charge of the War Savings
stamps campaign to Hal D. Patton, gen.
eral in charge.
1t is impossible at this time to get
complete report as the captains are
still hard at work. In making their
canvass OF the city, they report finding
many entIrc families away from home,
working in the berry fields and pick,
ing cherries. The absence of so many
families has naturally had much to do
with the amount SC, far pledged.
However, record has been made of
every family out of town and arrange
ments are planned by which they will
be solicited upon their return.
The postoffice, banks and stores re-
port a big business in War Savings
Stamps and in many eases, people are
buying mere than they pledged, the in
crease averaging about 20 per cent of
the original pledge.
While the amount is still long way
from Salem IS quota of $250,000, neither
the captain nor Mr. Patton are inclined
to feel at all discouraged. The work
ers will continue to look over their ter.
ritory and the campaign viii be on un-
til Salem has set itself right ON Wvr
Savings Stamps pledges.
"There is no doubt that Salem will
finally go over the top'' said Mr.. Pat
ton today. "The top is there and we
are going over if it requires the work
of every man on every team until
