Two tickets, how ever, were ruu iu opeu couvea tion with the result that it i. said now that the Benton County dele- gates will go to whichever devtl- vrc ftio. mrici- strenoth as bt t veen Mr. Hermann and Mr. Harri.-. ! This statement is triads because ! from the comments made bv t.Lai newspapers at a distance it ma v. appear to the r.rnds or roni? t'rt the county is caint Mr. II?:-, mann. lint the contrary is the case. It is believed by the irienus of Mr. Hermann that if it were put lo a ifcM vote uy Lac Mi Eentos County oeiweeu Mr. Her-, minn and Mr. Harris as to who should be the candidate for Con gress that Mr. Hermann would get more votes than any other man, not but what they regard Mr. Harris a very nice and able gentleman, and equally so is Mr Hermann, besides Mr. Hermann's long and favorable experience in serving the state in Congress car lies a weight with it that causes many of the people in Benton Ceinty to decide in favor of Mr. Hermann. The move which started Mr. Hermann's first nomination Le vari in Benton County, became at that time the Portland O. egoni an was indicating that Yaqui ia r Kav wai: m no more liuuoi nutc ji 1 tn nA uiauumuu uWC,, - & uuWu,vu..v.,.u,; SUCft Changes lor congress-nan 1a t fnllu nuprs iadnw tl-.r.'0110 one Ior laying tor a number or actions of our Congressman. The ; result was that the Oregonian has fought Mr. Hermann from st- t j to finish from the first day his name was mentioned for the first nomination. Nee-theless, 2 1 of j the large appropriations for Ya- quina Bay were obtained wane Mr. Hermann was in Congress, and largely through his able and genial influence.

Yesterday's Herald under the heading "It Provoked Laugh ter." comments as follows: The Wiedmauns presented another of their plays at the opera house last evening: before a well pleased audience. "Charlie's Aunt," the comedy played, was a laughter provoking production and was thoroughly appreciated by all. The specialties between acts were good and helped to amuse the crowd while the curtains were down.

The man who allows his bees to build their own foundation is merely wasting the time of the bees. Sometimes it seems like spending a great deal of money that might be saved to buy foundation, but it is really economical to do so. Honey comb is made of practically pure wax. and this is, in fac. the fat of the bees. Itisunlerthe les of the abdomen and may be seea there ,f .tte ia put under a glass of very ordinary magnifying power. This wax is pulled f ram its place by the claws of the bees and worked into comb, and this operation takes time that is lost when the colony might be storing nectar if t.ht f nimilnt.ifin Hjia hpn fnrn 1 cTiH improve- 0 man has been able to make founda After the - tion that is as soft and pliable as the comb the bees make, but a pretty fair imitation is made that answers all prac tical purposes. JYln?n honey comb is first made it is, as every one knows, sweet and perfectly palatable, but as soon as brood begins to be grown in it, eaoh embryo .veaves a t thin cocoon, that is never removed, and 1 the cell becomes smaller and the comb 1 darker with each succeeding brood hatched in it. This makes the bees grow smaller and smaller, and such comb should be cut out and melted down for sale before it gets too dark to find ' a place to keep them. I Where sections are used the comb is, ; of course, removed often ?nd sold, and ! here is where the most profitable use of ' foundation comes in. Journal of Agri culture. WITH THE BUSY BEES. In hiving a swarm make sure that the queen is inside the hive. A worker grub can be transformed in to a queen when it is five or six days old. In breeding- queens-artificially it is important to get good cells for brood of the right age. An absolute -requisite of successful beekeeping is a prompt attention to all of its varied duties. If a colony has a young queen and is strong in numbers it will curry out the eggs and moths as fast as natcnea. Bees when building comb begin at the top and hang in heavy cluateira to the comb until they complete it. Never allow a swarm of bees to r main out loiur after settling. Hive them a soon as possible and lessen the risk of loss. In each family of bees there are three distinct kinds, which differ in form, color, structure, size, habits and func tion. The activity of queens is governed largely by the activity of the workers. While the workers are storing honey she will lay sparingly. She is stimulat ed to lay when, all is life and activity in the hive. St. Louis Republic Additional Locals. Three hundred and fifty-five stu dents have enrolled so Jar this term.

We claim to sell In struments of the same quality $50 to $75 cheaper than any other c gents within 500 miles. This may seem line a bold statement, but we are prepared to back it up with incontrovertible evidence, if given a chance. ARGUMENT. AH largo dealers, like the Portland firms, have enormous expenses that we do not have in the way of immense rent, electric light, clerk hire, freight, drayage and numerous other bills. .Especially is this true of - their agents who cart their pianos around from town to town, creating bills which you have to share if you buy of them. Large firms save about 10 on a.piano bv buying in large carload lots Do you think that makes up for the above expenses? We are in a position to sell cheaper than any large firms aud the way eur customer? are-i creasing gives evidence that people are finding it out. Beware of spec ial sales, piano clubs and the like. No firm can bell goods at wholesale prices to the retail trade and no firm does. We always make a profit ou our pianos and never give anyone a special price, or sell 'to you for less than your neighbor, as we have but one price the year around. There is not another dealer iu the Pacific Northwest, to our knowl edge, which has strictly one price on each piauo irom wnicn iney ever never deviate. At least have a talk with - M. A. GOODNOUGH bef tre purchasing and see what he has to ofier. Our $250 pUn is a thoroughly good instru ment, of beautiful tone, action, finish and workmanship and one which would cost else where $300 so $325. We have several new styles coming.
