BARNES ITEMS (By Our Regular Correspondent) The Crook County Journal Makes Clubbing Arrangement With The Oregon Farmer Offers Unusual Opportunity to Its Readers AMONG our "large circle of readers there are a great many who are in terested directly or indirectly in fruit growing, dairying and other branches of farming. All of these naturally wish to keep in close touch w ith ag ricultural activities throughout the state; and to know about any fight which is being waged for the measures Oregon farmers want and against all sorts of schemes that are detrimental to the people and agricultural Interests of this state. We have, therefore, made a special clubbing arrangement with THE OREGON FAR MER whereby any farmer or fruitgrower, who is one of oar regular subscribers and w ho is not now a subscriber to THE OREGON FARMER, will be entitled to receive THE OREGON FARMER in combination with this paper at the same rate as for this paper alone, This offer applies to all those who renew or extend their subscriptions as well as to all new subscribers. If you are interested dl- rectly or indirectly in Oregon agriculture, do not' miss this unusual opportunity, but send your order in now. THE OREGON FARMER is the one farm paper which is devoting itself exclusively to the fanning activities and interests of Oregon. It has a big organization gath ering the news of importance to farmers, dairymen, fruitgrowers, stockraisers and poultrymen; and it has the backbone to at tack wrongful methods and combinations and bad legislation, and support honest leaders and beneficial measures. We are confident that oar readers will congratulate us on our being able to make this splendid and at tractive dubbing offer.

WHY YOU ARE NERVOUS The nervous system is the alarm system of the human body. In perfect health we hardly realize that ' we have a network of nerveB, but when health is ebbing, when strength is declin ing, the same nervous system gives the alarm in headaches, tiredness, dreamful sleep, irritability and unless corrected, leads straight to a breakdown. To correct nervousness, Scott's Emul sion is exactly what you should take; its rich nutriment gets into the blood and rich blood feeds the tiny nerve-cells while the whole system responds to its refresh ing tonic force. It is free from alcohol. Scott & Bawne, Bloomfield, N. J. Mrs. Shoiite's mother and niece, of Portlund, arrived at Fife a few days ago.
