XMAS TURKEYS
l MAY Be CHEAPER

Dealers In produce are of the
0pinion that the Christmas turkey
will not cost quite so much as the
one bought for the Thanksgiving
celebration.
This is due to the fact that the
great markets Of Portland ana san
Francisco carried heavy over
load of turkeys which will be held
in cold storage for the holiday
markets.
Dealers in Salem say that local
ly, the market was fairly well
sold. but that market conditions
here are controlled entirely by
the Portland market.
Hence the feeling that the tur-
key market is in for a decline.

Members OF the Court Street
Christian church are planning on
the erection of a $4,000 church
within a year or so. At the last
meeting OF the forward movement
held Sunday evening, $4,000 was

brought before all members, suf-
ficient funds will be subscribed to
justify making plans for the new
church.
At present the membership of
the church is about 400. Last
Sunday the attendance at Sunday

schools ASKED
TO HELP BOOST
BIG CORN SHOW

In order that the coming Mar
iion-Polk county corn show may
receive attention through the
schools, Paul Carpenter, Polk
county agent, who is assisting in
putting on the display, has written
a letter to school teachers.
The letter in part is as follows:
THE object of this event is to
promote the growth OF better corn
in the two counties and to In
crease the acreage. One Of the
outstanding needs OF our soil is the
production of more crops that
must be cultivated during the
summer season. Corn fills this
need, making profitable returns In
addition.
''Will you be so kind as to call
the attention of the older pupils in
the school patrons to this display.
A very attractive offering is made
for community display and 1t is
probable that your people will be
interested in competing.
"Your cooperation In putting
forward this show will not only be
met by the appreciation of the
committee in charge, but you will
be rendering real service to your
district"
In giving few pointers in the
selection of corn for display, s1r.
Carpenter offers the following
suggestions:
Corn must be ripe to be a sue
cessful crop. The ear takes on its
growth during the last few days
of the growing season. william
ette valley corn should be hard
by September 15.
The shape Of an ear Of corn
should be like pitchford handle.
AS to size, it is not always the
largest ear that is best. Ears Of
about eight to ten ounces are what
we should aim for.
The cob should be small every |
time. The profitable corn is from
ears that have small eobs and
deep kernals.
Rows should be straight, as tnat
means more grain to the ear.
There should be no open channels
between rows.
AS to kernels, the deeper the bet
ter, and straight on the sides.
With Dent varieties, there should
be well defined dent in every
kernel.
The butt and tip should be fill
ed, with tip rounded and covered
with kernels. Grain should be ,
crowded right to the shank of the
butt.
The color should be uniform.
Color is a good indication Of the
purity OF the variety.

show will be held in the Salem

REPUBLICANS CONDEMN BIG Ex.
PENDlTURE TO WIN
ELECTIONS.
SENATE VOTES 46 TO41
NINE REPUBLICANS JOIN SOLID
DEMOCRATIC OPPOSITION TO
MICHIGAN MAN.
western Newspaper Union Ss.. s.rios.l

Washington. Jan. 12.-Truman ii.
Newberry of Michigan finally won his
long fight for seat in the United
States Senate. The. right to the seat
was determined by the Senate itself,
which, by vote of 40 to Al on a reso-
luton sponsored by Republican lead
ers, asserted that Mr.. Newberry was
entitled to his seat. All who voted for
him were Republicans, while nine Re
publicans and thirty-two Democrats
voted against him. Three senators
were paired for and three against the
resolution, and three senator's did not
vote.
Added to the resolution declaring
Mr.. Newberry entitled to his seat and
denying the claim OF Henry Ford, the
defeated Democratic contestant in the
1918 election, that because of cam
paign expenditures Mr.. Newberry was
not entitled 10 sit in the Senate, was
statement OF public policy by which
the Senate severely condemned and
dlsapproved" the use of excessive
sums in behalf of any candidate.
The vote was taken after day Of
combat unlike any In recent months
and after the Democrats and the nine
Republicans had made strenuous eff
forts to upset the program of the New
berry supporters. Three resolutions,
each declaring the seat vacant, were
voted down by exactly the same line
M which established Mr.. Newberry's
title TO his seat. The custer resolu-
tions were those OF Senators Walsh of
Montana and Owen of Oklahoma,
Democrats, and Norris of Nebraska,
Republican.
The Senate's final vote came upon
the following resolution, amended by
Senator Spencer, Republican, Missouri,
to declare Mr.. Newberry entitled" to
his seat and substituting the Wills
amendment for the original clause
which declared the charges against Mr..
Newberry were not sustained:
81. That the contest of Henry Ford
against Truman H. Newberry be, and
1t is hereby, dismissed.
"2. That Truman r. Newberry In
hereby declared to he n duly elected
senator from the state of Michigan for
the term of six years commencing on
the fourth day of March, 1919, and is
entitled to hold his seat in the Senate
of the United States.
- That whether the amount ex-
pended In this (Mlchigan) primary
was S105,O00 as was fully reported or
openly acknowledged, or whether there
were some few thousand dollars in ex-
cess, the amount expended was In
either case too large, much larger
than ought to have been expended.
The expenditure of such excessive
sums In behalf of candidate either
with or without his knowledge and
consent being contrary to sound pub
lie policy. harmful to the honor and
dignity of the Senate and dangerous
to the perpetuity of a free govern
ment, such excessive expenditures are
hereby severely condemned and dIsap-
proved"

WONDERS IN GRAIN OF SAND
Remarkable Combinations When Seen
Beneath the Powerful Glass OF
Even Ordinary Microscope.

A handful Of sand, trickling through
the fingers in hard, dry grains, appear rs
to the naked eye merely as collec-
ton Of tiny stones. Many Of the grains
are little stones ground by the action
of the tides from the faces Of the great
cliffs against which the waves dash;
but others are very different affairs.
II you spread a pinch Of sand on
piece Of white paper, and look at 1t
through a magnifylng glass, you will
have q surprise. Many Of the grains
are shells consisting Of turns and spi-
rails az perfect as those Of the whelk
or the periwinkle. but so tiny that
without the aid Of glass the eye
cannot see them.
They are made by q class Of minute
creatures that swarm In the waters,
and as the animals die their shells
are washed up by the tide to form
sand. In course Of time they become
welded into masses of stone, and as
the centuries pass by they form great
rocks. Many Of our mightiest noun
tain ranges are made of nothing but
the shells of these tiny creatures
