THIS PAPER REPRESENTED FOR FOREIGN ADVERTISING BY THE GENERAL OFFICES NEWYORK AND CHICAGO BRANCHES IN ALL THE PRINCIPAL CITIES UNANIMOUS When Prineville voted a railroad bond issue of $100,000 in March, the press of the country which is always alert for something a little different from the ordinary, and wishing to encourage any com munity that can set an example, sat up as an individual and gasped. Pnneville, one ot the oldest com munities in the state, where every thing but progress had been sup posed to exist, had done a thing that had never been done before in the history of the land, cast a prac tically unanimous vote, to bond itself for $100,000. 1 The repetition of that result in a second election, held almost six months after the first, is causing even more comment than the first election, because, th same town, Prineville if you please, had proven to the world that it yet knows what it is about. It is the greatest di claration to capital that could be made, that the country is good and that the town is willing to make an invest ment that will prov this. H.J.

We wish to repeat that that fact still remains, and that Prineville is the county seat of Crook county. Also, we wish to know if Portland can show a better example of civic pride than the above. DIVERSIFIED RESOURCES. Any individual who has a diver sity of resources, who in the com mon expression, does not have all of his eggs in one basket, is much more prosperous as a rule, than the individual who has but one source of income, and what is true of an individual is, taken collectively, rlrue of a community. This is a fact because a com-.-munity is composed of individuals. To illustrate, a stock country Tike the Prineville country, which by the way is one of the largest and best territories in the West, has for its income the sale of sheep, wool, cattle, horses and other products. In this respect we are much more fortunate than some of the other parts of the state. The wheat growing sec tions have a wave of prosperity every fall, if crops have been good that year, and if not there is a like wave of depression. The lumber towns boom when , there is a good market for the'r product and whnn cars are obtain able; are anyything but properous when the opposite prevails. The fruit country is a bonanza Subscribed and sworn to before me this 21st day of Sept., 1916. Li. jj. BtmitLL, Notary Public. My commission expires March 20, 1917.

R Amtomo Value: )T .me LDER BUT STRONGER To be healthy at seventy, prepare at forty, is sound advice, because in the strength of middle life we too often forget that neglected colds, or careless treat ment of slight aches and pains, simply undermine strength and bring chronic weakness for later years.
