WON FAME AS ADMINISTRATOR
Sir William Macaregor Will Long Be Remembered for Ills Good Work
 In West Africa.

Sir William Macgregor was not the least of the bits of good luck which this empire owes to the Scottish strain of it. In the far-sundered areas of West Africa and the Western Pacific he achieved distinction which will not pass.
 The world knew more of him as Pa cific high commissioner than as gov ernor of Lagos, but to many Europeans in West Africa, and to those folk of long memories, the African races, he will always be Macgregor of Lagos, the pioneer sanitarian who began proc esses which have made Lagos a place livable for the European and more livable than ever before to Its teem- tng African population.
 The pedant may say that "circum- spice" scarcely applies where the bene- factor has only cleansed air and roads and purified water sources; neverthe- less, to no man could it be attached more f1tly than to Macgregor for his work in that steady hive of activity. The natives had a real affection for him, for they knew he believed in them, and Africans, like most other sons of Adam, esteem that even above good drains and pure water. He had very clear appreciation of the ter rible danger of German rule in the tropics just because of it's thorough ness.
 There are endless stories of him on the coast. One is of an official who, after tour in the bush, told the gov ernor of an exceptional juju he had seen-"exactly like a human being, sir, only, of course, of wood"
 'Nane sac exceptional" Macgregor remarked, and followed it up with a chuckling soliloquy, i've seen some in the ser-r-vfce. ."-Mancheste Guardian.

Beautiful American Bird.

In his distinguishing black on the forehead and yellow on the throat, the Maryland yellow-throat is one of the most beautifully marked of any mem Der of his tribe and gives an appear ance of Spanish grandeur, says the American Forestry association of Washington. There is no mistaking the sound of this bird, and it is rem dered in a variety of ways which make it sound like any one of the fol lowing: "Which-is-it?" or "What-a- pity, what-a-pity; or "Which-way- sir? which-way-sirT or I-beseech you, I-beseech you;" or "Witchery, witchery, witchery." The bird is par ticuuarly fond of thickets by the side of running water.

According to a report from Rose.

for the exclusive European trade
was in that city last week to contract
for the apple crops in that vicinity
It is stated that this is the first Eu-

that section before on a buying tour,
keeping their operations we'll in the
Hood River district, but the large
demands of fruit this year is caus-
ing buyers to enlarge their fields.
The apple prospects were never
better, according to the statement
made. 1t is estimated that so cars
will be shipped from the Garden Val
ley community and a like number
from Sutherlin, providing the fruit
and orchards are properly cared for
Garden Valley furnished 26 cars of
apples for the eastern markets last
year and County Fruit Inspector
Pearcy stated that at least $50 cars
will be shipped from the entire
county during 1919.

White said.
"The date for sending the men
away from here will be fixed by the
immigration bureau at Washington

Increased Use Of AIsiISe Clover.

Increased Use OF AlsiISe Clover.
The demand for alsike clover seed
this spring has been much greater
than formerly, because seed of this
clover is cheaper and has greater
covering capacity. Present indica-
tions are that the area seeded in
1919 will be so large as to reduce
the possible carry over Of alsike
seed to a minimum. This will mean
that the 1920 crop of clover must be
grown almost entirely from seed har-
vested this year.
More Gardens This Year.
The fact that the war is over does
not mean that folks are going to
stop making gardens. The interest
that thousands of patriotic gardeners
had last year seems to be growing
Instead of tagging, and their enthusl-
asm has attracted others to the gar
dening habit. A report from the
Iowa State club leader shows that
the enrolment in city garden clubs
in that state indicates a marked in
crease over last year. Up to the last
OF March the enrolment in Des
Moines showed 1000 more members
than were registered a year ago. OF
1O7 Iowa cities reporting, 81 had
already enrolled paid garden club
supervisors for the summer, more
than twice as many as had paid sup

Mr.. FAMILY MAN:
Why Spend So Much
Money on Shoes?

Here is what Tracy Munson of
Joplin, Missouri, says of Ne5lin
Soles: Judging from my own ex-
perience, they wear four times longer
than other soles and have the addi-
tional advantage OF being waterproof
and slip-proof."
Why continue to wear eXtravagant
old-fashioned soles when you can get
these money-saving, long wearing soles
on new shoes in any style you like
for any member of the family? Good
shoe stores everywhere carry them.
And don't throw away your old
shoes. Have them re-bottomed with
Neolin Soles and enjoy the comfort
of a re-soled shoe which is not stiff
or clumsy. Neolin Soles are a dis
covery Of Science, and are made by

Akron, Ohio, who also make Wingfoot
Heels guaranteed to outwear all

HOLYOKE HAS LOST HONOR
Town Officially Declared Not 70 Have
Been the Birthplace Of Junius
Spencer Morgan.

Hdyoke, Mass, which has long
claimed the honor Of being the birth
place of Junius Spencer Morgan. grand
father Of the present J. P. Morgan, has
been shorn Of this fame by the town
Of West Springfield. This decision has
been rendered by the Connecticut VAL
ley Historical society.
The explanation lies In the fact that
the present city of Holyoke was for
merly a part Of the town Of West
Springfield and that. contrary to Holy
oke's contention, and the assumption
of the Morgan family, the site Of the
ancestral home of Junius Spencer Nor
gan is still included within the boun-
daries Of West Springfield, though by
q narrow margin.
The present J. P. Morgan received an
opportunity to perpetuate family his
tory in West Springfield through the in
strumentality of any public gift which
appealed to his fancy. Though Mr..
Morgan was unresponsive, the contest
between Holyoke and West Springfield
for birthplace honors progressed mer-
rily and was settled only recently.
