Loss NOT AS EXTENSIVE
AS REPORTED SAYS JONES

A careful investigation of the logan.

the fact that the tardy growers are
the ones who will derive the greatest
returns from their yards this season
They who failed to train the vines be
fore the snow and freeze. asserts
Seymour Jones. found them uninjured
when the snow departed, and as a re
suit they win bear heavy. MIR. Jones
does not encourage the negligence, OF
course, which proved to be his gain
this year. but he claims his crop o,
berries were not injured while others
in the vicinity Of Salem who took
special pains to train the vines after
last years harvest will be heavy losers
as a result.
When he Is not busy with politics
Representative Jones gives earnest
consideration to this favorite vocation
the growing of fruits which he adopted
after retiring from the practice of law,
and he seems to be authority. He
stated that the prunes grown in the
hills will bear heavily this year. and
II there are any great losses they will
be found In the bottom lands But he
predicts greater crop this fall than
most people anticipate.

While there has been considerable
speculation regarding the probable
losses to growers In the valley caused
by the freze, Mr.. Lewis is under the
impression that the yields in many
cases will be almost up to the stand
ard, and the Oregon Growers Co oper-
ative association Is looking forward to
an abundant harvest. The association.
which was organized less than year
ago. is developing with remarkable
rapidity and 1t represents today ap-
proximately $4,000 acres of fruit lands
In western Oregon. 1t is largely rep
resented in the Umpqua valley where
the outlook is very promising. Every
day finds more acreage signed up. The
acreage In Marion, Polk and Yamhill
counties is enormous and comprises
lands owned by most of the larger
growers In these counties the prune
crop in particular gives promise Of
abundant success.
The association recently purchased
the packing plant at McMinnville.

stockholders expect to build more this

RECOGNITION SERVICE

The Recognition Service held for
Rev. James Arthur Lytle in the Con-
gregational Church Tuesday evening
was an unusually delightful affair
and was largely attended by friends
regardless of creed. The fine musi-
cal program arranged by the organist,
Mrs Lytle, was interspersed with
brief addresses by brother ministers
of Bradford and elsewhere. Rev. o
j Anderson gave cordial welcome
from Grace Church assuring Mr.
Lytle that that church would heart
ily cooperate in all work for the
common good. DR.. T P Frost in
most witty talk spoke for the people
of the town, those not connected
with either church. While such have
hearty respect for the church they
can hardly be expected, what with
automobiling and other amusements,
to attend church, nor can they oe
expected to give very literally for
it's support after the necessary ex-
pense of gasoline, oil and other alb
solutely essentials. However they
will be glad to allow the pastor To

time comes, and officiate on like

Rev. Donald Fraser of Wells River
welcomed him into the brotherhood
of pastors, hoping that his pastorate
might approach in lengh that Of
DR.. Mexican. Rev. Clinton w Carvell
of Fairlee gave the welcome to Graf
ton-Orange Co. Conference and prom
ised him the friendship of the pas
tors up and down the line on both
sides of the river. Rev. C C Mer-
rill of Burlington Field secretary,
spoke for the State reminding him
there are big problems ahead and
wishing him success in his efforts to
help solve them. Mr. Lytle, with the
grace and ease which characterize
him, responded to each speaker
voicing his wish and hope that the
relations thus established might con-
tinue and emphasizing his determin-
alton to do his part in fulfilling the
high purposes of the Church of Jesus
Christ.
After the benediction the company
adjourned to the parlors which had
been tastefully decorated and after
a social time a dainty luncheon was
served by young matrons and maids.
Mr. Lytle's pastorate has opened
most auspiciously and both he and
Mrs Lytle are rapidly winning friends |
in the church and community.

SECOND NUMBER OF THE ENTER.
TAINMENT COURSE.

On Tuesday evening of next week,
December ID, the second number of
the Entertainment Course will be
given at the Opera Hall. The attrac-
tion will be the Adams Company,
headed by Crawford Adams, the vio-
linist. Mr. Adams has already
appeared in Bradford several times
and each time wins new admirers by
his wonderful playing. He is called
the Wizard of the Violin" He is
more than a violinist. He is the
personification of personality. He
offers solos of standard music, some
popular numbers, limitations with
the violin. the talking violin and
finally his famous request numbers in
which he asks the audience to name
anything which they care to hear
played. He has a marvellous musical
repertoire. In seven years of re-
quests, Adams has not failed to play
the number suggested.
With him are Ethel Hinton, reader,
and Nan Synott, soloist and accom-
panist.
Miss Hinton is called the "Girl of
Many Dialects" There is no enter
tainer of today who can begin to
her in her humorous char
acter songs, dialect stories and i'm
personations. Her numbers are
unique and different.
Miss Synott is a real artist. She
has been with Mr. Adams several
years. Her splendid accompanimerts
and solos are big factor in the /
success of this program.
This is the big entertainment Of /
the year-worth many times the 4
