Cobb Believes
Lava Bear Of
Extinct Race

| Bend, Or, Sept. 14.-That the
lava bear. provincially known as
the sand lapper" inhabiting the
lava flow in the Fort Rock coun-
try, may prove to be the sun bear,
believed for the last 100 yeaLs TO
be extinct, was the theory advanc-
by Irwin S. Cobb today on his re-
turn to Bend after a weeks trip
to the south, in the course Of
which the humorist has hunted
bear and deer and fished in all the
lakes along the way. Incidentally,
Mr.. Cobb lost 20 pounds of his
former weight.
Mr.. Cobb said today that he be-
lieved a diminutive species OF grizz
ly found in the Seven Devils coun-
try in Idaho and the dwarf bear
Of the Fort Rock lava flows are
Identical and are the last surviv-
ors of the sun bear, a species for
merly found over a large territory
in the lava flows OF California
and Oregon. He is eager to get
specimens of the tiny grizzly and
hopes that the attention of the
Smithsonian Institute may be suf-
ficiently aroused to start more
scientific investigation of the sub
ject than he has been able to
make.

1T was deemed by the associa-

the month of September and the

have their statesmen out selling the

We're cut by the independent PACK
ers as soon as they were named
and the association was forced to
meet this decline. Prices have since
been cut some more and are now
one cent under the associations
opening prices and one and a
fourth cents on 40-50s. Owing to
the several declines, buyers tare
not in a buying mood. When the
buyers, however, begin to buy, the
association expects to get dts share
of the business. 1t has already got
ten some busines, and owing to the
fact that it has probably the best
selling organization of any dried
fruit packers in the northwest it
will be able to take care Of its
members as well as the independ
ent growers are being taken care
of. If the present crop was under
such control that it could be sold
now and then as the trade needs
the fruit from time to time dur
ing the next eight or nine months
a very much better control OF the
market could be had and condi-
tions would remain firm to the
better satisfaction of not only the
growers but also the trade"
