Id- to Whilo Harney county. soil and climate may not bo adopted par ticularly to fruit raising as a whole, thero aro portions that will possibly equal the most wide ly advertised portions in that ro spect. Such fruit ns is jrrown is fine. However, it doesn't need to boast of its fruit producing qualities when it will equal any country for ccrinls, vcKotableu, such as onions, potatoes, sugar beets, colerv. asnaracus. etc. It is also ndaptcd to cranberry cul ture and has manv advantages in tills respect that is not nt pre sent taken into account. Its iso lation and the discouragement incident to lack of market has kept it in tho back ground thus far. Another injurious feature in the lack of knowledge of tho bier tinners of tho stato as to oui resources. Tho Portland papors are densely ignorant of what tho Harney country is and its groat resources. Says the now Stanflcld Stand ard: "Tho people of Orogon have a grouch nt tho idle land speculator. There are too many of him and too spread out.' The man who invests his wealth in upbuilding a community, in irri gating arid tracts, in upbuilding his home, is welcome and more. But the speculator who obstrncts developmeut, levies weighty tri bute on the incoming hosts of capitalists and laborers, sweats others but never himself, and dodges his just tribute to tho welfare of society at every turn such a man is regarded by a constantly increasing host as a good element to discourage by any practical means." An article in the current issue of the Westerner, written by ono Edgar L. Hampton, under the head "Harney Valley llampnnt," is disgustingly amusing. The writer states ho has the Infor mation second hand from Mr. Dum. the writer expresses a desire to see this section before tho advent of a railroad and we hope he may have the opportun ity for then ho possibly can write something for tho Westerner that will be something near the truth. This cannot be said of the article he has already writ ten. Local farmers should got their soil in readiness for tho moisture that comes during the winter. The past two exceedingly dry sea sons have taught us a lesson in dry farming methods. We may not have a repetition of them, but it is best to be on the safe side. The good yields of grain this year has proven that with proper soil culture we may ex pect a profitable crop every sea son, therefore take advantago of this fine weather to place the ground in shape to hold the moisture. The Burns Commercial Club is now preparing for an active ad vertising campaign during the winter months to induce capital and settlement in tho great Har ney country. This work should have the support of all good citi zens who desire the development of this country. Conditions will change quite rapidly in the spring and we shall see a great influx of people. Let us induce the better class to come. The tendency to the improve ment of stock of nil kinds by local growers is commendable and should be encouraged. Every year brings better stock strains into local herds and it will im prove more rapidly from this time forth. Tho county fair is n Btimulqus in this respect and a factor little considered by tho average person. It has proven beneficial to those who haye participated, Tho recent sale of tho Alvord ranch to now people at a big figure evidently means tho cut ting up of tho big ranch into small holdings and disposing of it. It is too much money to put into an isolated property and al lowed to remain for an indefinite time awaiting development, This is, perhaps, tho forerunner of other such deals that will mean tho rapid settlement of this territory. No other section of tho United States has tho quantity or quality of vacant land that wo have for tho prospective settlor. All that niwasnrv to nut an industrious family on every 1G0 aero tract of land in tho Harney country is to lot tho puoplo know wlint have. wo DAVIS-DALTON. A vorv nrotty wedding' was solemnised at tho homo of Mr. and Mrs. J. M. Dnlton last Wednesday evening whon their daughter, Merle, becanio tho bride of Alma Davis. The corc monv was performed by Rev. A. J. Irwin of tho First Presbyteri an church in tho presence or a gathering of relatives and friends. Mrs. A. J. Irwin play ed tho wedding march. Allen Jones acted as best man and Miss Delta Dillard was brido's maid. Followincr tho ceremony and con gratulations of those present a nico wedding supper was served in the dining room. Mr. and Mrs. Davis aro among tho most popular young people in llarnoy County where both lmvo lived since childhood. The bride is tho eldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. M. Dnlton and has been a teacher in our public schools. She is a very sweet girl of sunny disposition that has won her the esteem of Her wtuo acquaintance. Alma Davis is a son of Jasper Davis of Harney and is highly respected through out Harney County as u man of honor. He is engaged in farm ing and will take his bride to tho farm near Hnmoy. where they will make thoii home.

Ananias Mr. Parkins and wife left for their homo in Grnnt County, Tuesday, after mnking annual proof on Mrs. Parkins' desert claim. Thomas Dawson who was threatened with pneumonia last week, is much improved. R. D. Stahl arrived homo the first of the week from John Day with a largo load of fruit and vegetables. W. It. Dawson was at homo during the sickness of his father. He returned to the Island Ranch Sunday, where ho is operating the largo ditching machine for the P. L. S. Company. Mr. Hibbard and son went through the valley last week witli lumber. Wo did not loam their destination. Several of our families who have children of school age are moving to town instead of send ing them to their homo school. This is wrong as wo have a good school building centrally locatnl and our school is in charge of u compotont teacher, Miss Ncwi Hodder. Evoryono should help encourage this school after the citizens have worked so faith fully and built tho school house cu of their own pockets, Not only this but it may handicap some of them when they make final proof on their homesteads. Robt. Sottlemyre has" purchas ed some of tho fall wheat which J. M. Dalton i'b introducing in tho country, "Gold Coin." Whonevor thero is anvthimr to holjfari'tho improvement of the county you will nlways find Bob in tho lead. Collin Dawson and ChcB. Hib bard will furnish the music for tho big dance of Nov, 5. A LOST nix Years ago elk wero numerous on tho upper South Forkbutnono have been seen thero for several years, consequently thero was much excitement at Canyon City tho other evening when Sice Par risli reported by phono that a lono "Elk" had become lost from his "herd" and after roaming ubout without food or wutor four or five dnyH showed up nt Pnr rish'a ranch and reported ho lmd "found himself." Some of the local sports wero for organizing n hunting party at once, but Sico told them it was tho closo season for elk and tho trip was abandoned. After joshing nwhllo Sico said Fred Eppinger catro in that afternoon having b n lost from his companions fi . four or five days, looking pretty ragged and hungry.

Stomach troubles would more quickly disappear if the idea of treating the cause, rather than the effect, would come into prac tice. A tiny, inside, hidden nerve, snys Dr. Shoop, governs and gives strongth to the stom nch. A branch also goes to tho Heart, and one to tho Kidneys. When these "inside nerves" fail, then the organs must falter. Dr. Shoop's Restorative is directed spceilicallv to these failing nervi. within W hours niter starting tho restorative, treat ment pntients say thoy realize a gain sold t y Uecu Bros.
