Prineville, Oregon HE 0C0C0 IRRIGATION PROJ ECT Is one of the few irrigated districts in the Northwest that is free from effects of booms. The values are extremely low consid ering the facts that there' will be an abun dance of water, the quality and depth of the soil and the ease with which good, soft, cold well water can be had any place on the district at from 50 to 100 feet. Lands can still be purchased here for as low as 40 per acre, without the water right. The past season has demonstrated to all those on the project the productive quality of the land and the' ease with which it can be cleared, prepared and watered. If you are interested write us NOW. OLD BELIEFS STILL SURVIVE Queer Marriage Customs and Sup.mtl tlens Extant In Many Parts of the Old World. It Is an old belief tlint marring should take place when the iihmhi la waxing and not waning. If It in lo he a lucky match, and In ninny north country district a strict Inquiry Is made as to the atnte of the moon he fore the wedding day Is Axed, accord ing to a writer In I-omlon Answers. In the north, too, no wise bride will ask an odd number of guest to her wed ding ft-BMt. for an old superstition Iihh It i hut If this be done one of the guests will dip before the year Is out. In the hlghlundn It Is tttken ne a terribly unlucky sign If a dog should run between the bridal pair on their wedding dny; while In Derbyshire prospective brides still tell the bees of their wedding and decorate the hive for ilie occasion. In parts of England Hiid cVotlnnd there exists an ancient custom for which rensou la hard to find, hy which part of the wed ding cake Is broken over the head of the bride and the guests scrsmhle for pieces. None of these man-Inge manners, however, compare with the Chinese custom which causes bacon and sugar to be hung on the aednn clinlr of a Chinese bride, In order to keep the de mons from molesting her on her wed ding Journey. The Chinese brlde-to-he, too, has to stnncl In a round, shallow basket while she dresses for the wed ding. In order to tnuke her of a good temper and amluble disposition. .1 Ml ten arm ar m u m a w sbbkv m ( f i u v a m v "Red Crown" strsight-tlistilleJ, all refinery oaioline gives steady, depeiMl able power.

MARTIN, Hpeclal Agt Redmond, Oregon TAKE NO JOY IN PRODUCTION Workers In Quarrlsa From Which Fa mous Carrara Marble Is Taken Lead Dull Lives. Carrara marble la associated with the silent besuty of great cathedral and monuments. There Is none of that dignity about the place of Its ' origin. The little Italian town of Car- J rare, huddled beside the mountain j quarries for which It exists. Is a ! place of confusion and clamor, of men and beasts laboring to supply the world with a commodity. The Pyrenees mountains have been supplying this marble for centuries. The quarry workmen have for years tolled, 'as their ancestors before them tolled, to keep up the steady nut doer of Carrsra mHrhle fur the hand of j sculptor and architect, and even to make possible that ornament beloved of our grandmothers, the mnrlile-top-ped table. For Carrara's laborers, sawing and hammering Incessantly, there comes none of the artist's Joy of working with s perfect medium. In their trend nilll of hard labor the slabs of glisten ing stone long ago became as dull and nnlnsplrlng as so much Iron or coal. Blocks of perfect marble are dragged about recklessly and laden on wagons behind long string of weary oxen. Carrara exists for the last day of j the week. Then, clutching Its earn-) lngs so hardly won. It hastens to the , town's gathering places mul fur a few! Intoxicating hours throws off the grip t of the quarries.

Member Federal Reserve System FIRST NATIONAL BANK Daniel Webster. The ponderous strength of his pow-i ers strikes us not more forcibly thnn the broad Individuality of the man. j Were we unacquainted with the his-, tory of his life, we could almost Infer It from his works. Kverythlng In his production Indicates the character of a person who tins struggled fiercely! against ohstacles, who has developed j his faculties by strenuous luhor, who; has been a keen and active observer j of man and nature, and who hasiwenj disciplined in the affairs of the world.' There Is a manly simplicity and clear-1 news In his mind, and a nigged energy ; In his feelings, which preserve him from sll the affectations of literature and society. . . . We never consider hlrn as a mere debater, a mere scholar, i or a mere statesman ; but as a strong, ; sturdy man. The school and the col-; lege could not fashion him Into any foreign shape, because they worked 'on material too hard to yield easily to conventional Whipple. molds. Kdwln P.!

Oblivion. But the Iniquity of oblivion blindly scnttereth her poppy, und deals with the memory of men without, distinction to merit of perpetuity. Who can but pity the founder of the pyramids? JHerostratus lives that burned the temple of Diana, he Is almost lost that built It; time hafh spared the epitaph of Adrian's horse, confounded that of himself. In vain we compute our felicities by the advantage of our good na 'is, since bad have equal du rations; and Tliersites Is like to live as long .as 'Agamemnon, without the savor of the everlasting register.
