being the first woman to volunteer
her services as seal sale agent before
the sale has begun. Columbia and
Clatsop counties were visited during
the past week by Mr.. Osborn and or
ganized assistance was arranged Mrs.
Dunbar visited The Dalles last week
and spoke before the Sorosis Club and
that club volunteered to take over the
agency for the seal sale for the entire
county Of Wasco.
The budget Of the Oregon Tubercu-
losis Association for use in 1921 is
$4,000 and through the sale of the
Christmas seals at a cent a piece, this
sum will be sought. This means q
sale Of five seals per capita IL the
work Of the Association is to be con.
tinued along its established lines. II
sum less than this is raised it will
mean the sacrificing OF some part OF
the vital educational, demonstration
and experimental work.
Four and q half million seals have
been received by the Oregon Associa-
tion. The 1920 Seal features a tiny
green elf, who carries aloft the STAN
dard of the Anti-Tuberculosis Asso-
citation, the red double barred cross,
while riding atop the pack of gifts
carried by Santa Claus. The scheme
of the stamp is to typify the greatest
gift of all, good health" and the at,
taching of stamps to all letters and
Christmas packages during the month
of December will insure the carrying
of the gift of good health to hundreds
OF Oregon victims of this dread dis
ease, as 95 per cent Of the entire pro-
ceeds from the sale will be kept in
this state to combat the disease.

TAFT

(lO late lot last week.
Yes, 1t rains here on Siletz Bay.
, There is no place In the U. S. that
will grow more and larger vegetation
than here. The rootabagas will grow
one every two feet square OF ground
and many of them will weigh 30 lbs.
apiece and as nice and tender as any
tuinip, because they grow SO fast
Beets will grow three and q half feet
long and six inches In diameter
( Carrots, feet long and six inches in
diameter and four to the foot in rows
eighteen inches apart. A quarter OF
an acre of potatoes were planted on
ground that never had any lime on
1t and no fertilizer on 1t for eighteen
years yet it yielded 81 sacks of po.
.tatoes many of which measured thir'
teen inches long, with a weight OF
three and a half pounds-solid all the
way through. Cabbages grow to an
enormous size. Corn grows and
yields here quite equal to the best
corn belt in any country, and ripens
so it will grow the next year. But it
does not dry out in the shock. Hay,
oats and vetch have no equal in any
country we think. To illustrate, one
acre was sown last spring where no
fertilizer had been used end no inOcu-
lation for vetch. The vetch kept up
with the oats until it was seven feet
tall then the vetch was so heavy it
weighed the oats down. Then the
vetch turned up and grew two feet
more hiding the oats completely,
blooming and setting on pods which
were well filled. In 1898 there was a
patch of pumpkins planted by the
Morris Bros. on their claim on Siletz
River (now the Anderson or Paine
farm), one among those pumpkins
measured feet IL inches around the
largest way. The two brothers stood
side by side on that pumpkin and had
their photograph taken. A good beam
of light could be seen between them.
Each man weighed 160 pounds. Could
we growl because 1t rains. In sum-
mer our gardens and meadows are
green when the Willamette Valley is
all dry. We have plenty Of beautiful
sunshine here.
The Willamina, Grand Ronde Rail-
road, with the heavy belt Of timber
which was headed for, we hear, has
changed hands, to the Spaulding Lum-
ber Co. Two lines Of three miles each
will be extended from Bently, G. r., in
to the timber to get logs which the
contract has been let for twenty mil
lion cars of logs that are to be loaded
as soon as possible after the road is
finished.
What is the matter with Paul Chat;
he wants to sell his nice land and
house.

SHALL WE HAVE SPECIAL
TRAIN TO CORVALLIS
SATURDAY, NOV. 20?

Provided enough people want to go
to Corvallis and return Saturday,
Nov. 20, we can get an extra or special
train for the occasion. The fare will
probably be about equal to the regular
fare. If the special out and back Sat
urday cannot be arranged 1t is pos
sible that an extra out Saturday and
return on the regular Sunday could
be arranged. In order to arrange for
the train we must know how many
people want to go. Stops could be
made at all stations to pick up pas
sengers II you want to go advise
]. E. ,Cooter, Toledo, Oregon, how
many tickets you will want and FROM
what station you will go.

TAFT

Taft and vicinity has been host to
Governor Ben Olcott, Herbert Mum,
State Highway Engineer and DR.. r.
E. Lee Steiner, Superintendent Of the
State Hospital for an extended and en-
joyable visit to everyone concerned.
The Governors party was inspecting
the proposed new road from Neskowin
in Tillamook County to Salmon River
and on to the Lincoln County seat via
Siletz River. They were highly
pleased with the Salmon River and ST.
letz River valleys and were surprised
to find such wonderful country await
ing development. The party was SO
well pleased with a fishing trip on
Lower Drift Creek that they stayed
over another day to fish and hunt.
Governor Olcott stated that he would
try and come back later this season
for a duck hunt on the Siletz. The
party also enjoyed the Halloween
dance at the Taft Hall and stepped out
like regular fellows, dancing every
thing that came along, waltzes, steps,
Paul Jones and good old fashioned
quadrille in which all three partici-
pated and seemed to enjoy immensely.
Everyone enjoyed the sociability Of
the Governor and his party. and we
hope we may have the pleasure Of
having them in our midst again. They
were favorable to the coast highway
and next season should bring active
construction work by the state, forest
department and Tillamook and Lincoln
counties.
Mr. and Mrs. d. Ellis Of Garibaldi.
and Mr.. and Mrs. ]. Syndow of Bar.
view OF Tillamook County were quests
OF b. Z. Robson for the past week
end and they also enjoyed some fine
fishing for trout and jack salmon.
Carl S. Davis, of Newport, called at
Taft Saturday and Sunday. Carl visits
us quite often.
H. w. Pepin, contractor, and his
crew are getting well along with the
Port dock at Taft and If this fine
weather keeps on will soon be finish
ing the Job. This dock has been
locked foreward 10 for several wears
and VIII fill a long needed necessity
We sincerely hope that the Newport
Fort Commission will provide the
needed protection for the dock and
tramway approach.

LOCAL DEMOCRATS WIN

The National Democratic Committee
will do well to get few pointers from
Lincoln County Democrats before the
J next campaign, as while the Nationa
Committee fell down hard in the elec
tion of Tuesday, the local Democratic
Committee pulled off their biggest vic
tory, by landing three important coun
ty offices, viz; County Judge, Sheriff
and Assessor.
On the National ticket Harding beat
Cox in this county by a majority oi
about 700. Stanfeld beat Chamber
lain by about 125 majority. On the
County ticket, John Fogarty, Dem
beat Howell, Rep, by a little over a
hundred votes, and Ed Stocker's
Dem. lead over Schwartz, Rep, for
the Assessorship, will be slightly less
Simpson, Dem, beat Gwynn, Rep, for
the Sheriffship by about 400.
Ord Castle, County Surveyor, is the
only Republican who overcame his
opposition, and the indications are
that he will have a majority of better
than 200 over his opponent. 2. M. Der.
rick, Dem.
The result OF the election came as
surprise to many, altho for some
time past 1t was plain to be seen that
many Republican voters in the county
had swallowed the clever bait put out
by the Democratic candidates, and
too late will they realize that it was
only political bunk.
The returns are all in except from
Five Rivers precinct, and thus far
every precinct In the county went
democratic except Tidewater precinct.
God bless Tidewater precinct and may
it grow and prosper and wax fat, and
perhaps someday it may be the county
seat.
1t might be we'll to say In passing
that the Republican candidates, who
had no opposition, were safely elected.
While the ballot boxes from all pre-
cincts except one have been brought
to Toledo, the returns from five or
six precincts are not available as moth
