TF.XXKKSKE GKOCF.R RF.UKYF.S IX ADVERTISING An advertising feat of particular Interest to newspaper publishers and advertisers not only remarkable for its size but for Its clean contents ex pressive of the sentiment that "There Is something better than making a living making a l'.fe" was "put over" by Mr. Bowers, a local grocer of Memphis, Tenn., advertising his 35 stores, called "Temples of Economy," and appearing in the May 9th issue of the Memphis Press. The advertisement covered six and one-half pages, which Is go;ng some, In one issue. Mr. Bowers is well known to many publishers of great metropolitan newspapers. His recent fight against the fixed-mlnlmum-pnce-plan of manufacturers of food products was the subject of many editorials in great newspapers. He carried this fight direct to congress and only dropped it when the supreme court last month handed down an opinion upon the point it issue which estab lished the right of a retailer to sell goods at his own price. The bill which Mr. Bowers had Introduced at Washington made him known to hundreds of newspapermen, congress men and to men of large affairs who were vitally Interested In the point fought for as no other man has ever fought. But to the publication and advertising world In particular his latest advertising feat Is Interesting. Fraud Perpetrated by Men I'ulng Agricultural College as Reference. Corvallis, Ore. Frauds are being perpetrated in several parts of the Btate by men who give as their ref erences the names of professors at the state agricultural college, with out authority. One claims preposter ous things in the way of curing apple trees of anthracknose and protecting them from the codling moth by apply ing chemicals to the roots. Another Is offering a premium with subscrip tions to a paper, which turns out to be a fake. Dean A. B. Curdley of the agricul tural school, has received a letter from a farmer near Tuolitin, asking is he game his endorsement to such men. The letter says: "A man named Saunder claims to have a treatment whereby he renders trees immune from diseases by the application of some chemicals to the roots, especially apple trees. He claims that they will be cured of an thracknose, and that the codling moth will not bother such trees for six years, and that no spraying is requir ed on treated trees, other than a light spray of concentrated lye once ever two or three years, to keep moss off the trees. Mr. Saunder gave me the name of Prof. Cordley as reference, so I aJc the college to give me its opinion. I regard this fellow as a fraud, pure and simple, and in or der to protect my neighbors from his operations I have written to the col lege." "I know nothing whatever of him," Dean Cordley replied, "and if I should give my testimony in the case, it would be to the effect that any man who claims to be able to render trees immune from the attacks of the cod ling moth, anthracknose and other fungus diseases by an application of certain chemicals to the roots of trees, Is a fraud." Another letter from Lebanon states that a young man claiming to be connected with the college is tak ing subscriptions for a paper and of fering a premium, which turned out later to be a fraud. Dean Cordley has Issued a statement that there is no such person connected with the in stitution, and that he Is evidently radlng upm the popularity and rep utation of the college to make smooth the way for his fraud.

Strong program for Friday and .Saturday. 1. "A Priestess of Carthage." Gau mnnt. A wonderful production laid in the days when Carthage was at war with Rome.

Bridget feels that she has endured Mrs. G.'s abuse long enough and decided to take French leave. On her way to the front door she espies Mrs. Graham's fur coat. She takes It, leaving her own old raglan in Its place. Mrs. G. summons the police sergeant, who starts his men on the track of the guilty per son. The following morning airs. Graham meets Bridget. Threatened with arrest, Bridget returns the coat to Mrs. G., and on her way home she (Mrs. G.) is captured by the po lice.

Herman Mat te, of Centerville, who was with Al blne Mattsen when the latter was drowned in the Big Klickitat river a week ago, was last night arrested on a complain of the Prosecuting At torney charging the sale of Intoxicants to minors. The sheriff made the ar rest. The report of the arrest fol lowed the finding of the drowned man's gun badly battered and the stock broken, by searchers for the body, and rumors are rife that Matte knows more than he has told of the death of his friend. The officers re fuse to commit themselves, but the general belief here Is that Matte's ar rest on the liquor charge is a blind. At the time of Mattsen's death quite n party of Centerville people, members of tho Finnish colony, had gone on a fishing and camping trip. Mattsen and hi wife, accompanied by Matte, left the camp near the Rusk Soda Springs one morning and the woman and Mntto returned a short time later reporting that Matt sen had fallen into the river anil drowned, though they did not see him fall In.

"Poisoned baits are desirable for destroying grasshoppers, cut worms and a few other Insects," says H. F. Wilson, entomologist at the Oregon Agricultural College, In a new bulletin on Insecticides for the garden, which will soon be off the press. "Such baits are most effective if used in early Bprlng," he says. "Poi soned slices of tomato or some similar vegetable treated with a strong so lution of arsente of lead or Paris green are used to poison sow-bugs and wire-worms. "To make a bran arsenic mash mix thoroughly a pound of white arsenic, half a pound of brown sugar and six pounds of bran, and add enough wa ter to make a wet mash. A spoonful should bo placed at the base of each tree or v.ne. For cut worms a still better bait may be prepared by mix ing thoroughly a pound of Paris green. 15 pounds of middlings, and 15 pounds of bran, dry. and sowing it broadcast upon the vegetation, about the borders of cultivated fields or gardens. It may also be sown with a seed drill along t"e rows of plants to be protected. So used it has been found especially valuable for destroy ing cut worms In onion fields." The Pastime. The house of quality. Good pro gram for Friday's change: 'Helping Him Out." Lubln. We have here another of the sparkling comedies for which the well-liked Lu bln company has established a repu tation. The story of the elopment is one of the best comedies presented In a long time.

Pathe American Co. Is an In dian story in a new and acceptable form associated with the life of a preacher and his family. Scenes at Solombo, Ceylon. Eclipse. If the people of Oklahoma City should happen to get Into trouble over their state capital removal they can do no better than retain Colonel Roosevelt as chief eonnaal. '!
