Itities, are required to pay 81 per
pound for them. Some dissatis-
fled customers, however, have com
planned tina; they were unable to
get more than one half OF one
per cen. into the finished pro-
duct. 1t is possible that this me-
tation from the complaint de-

novices whose working knowledge
OF intoxicating beverages was linn
tied to their activities at the time
when they could place their

shiny rail and call out en- order

The fact that Oregon druggists
sell fewer hops than do druggists
OF other states is explained by the
fact that many local home brew
ers are able b. procure the neces-
sary ingredients directly from the
field AMI that others raise hops
in their backwards instead Of ros-
es and garlic.
Local hep growers, ever In

Paddy, Lost For Ten
Years, Is Found At
State Institution

Daddy. there's Walter" A girl
clutched at her fathers elbow at
the state hospital recently in the
course Of a visit through the wards
and indicated one OF the inmates
clad in blue denim.
And It was Walter. Ten years
ago Walter Patty disappeared
from his home in Colorado, leav-
ing a prosperous ranch and a
wife and child. But he recognized
his father In law and sister In law
who happened to visit the state
institution a few days ago, while
they were camping with other
members OF the family at the To-
cal auto park.
Hello. father" said the inmate.
For a moment he was rational.
And then he drifted off in a tale
OF how he had learned TO talk
with the birds and insects-17
different languages in all. "The
next time you see me may be a
graft" he concluded.
BY a curious chain OF circum-
stances the 10 year old mystery
of the mans disappearance was
solved. Years ago Walter Patty
came to Durango. Colo. where he
met with success as a raneher and
married the daughter cf A. @.

chance the unfortunate Walter
was encountered at the hospital.
Patty is 40 years old. He was
committed from Benton county

far It has been impossible to
