The civil war struck the note of ojr nation's greatest peril. Disunion meant abandonment of the principles upon which the country was founded, meant constant strife and eventual disintegration. At the country's rati ojr i dear eyed you uh tuen marched out, ready to sacrifice life and limb. 11 need be, for the unity of the nation. Their courage saved it for future gen erations. It wast wise for our fathers to set a day for commemoration of the ser vices of these citizen soldiers. Most of them now lie beneath grassy '(Minds In the cemeteries throughout foe land, but when Decoration Day mi'.-i we pay tribute to their self sacrifice. Those who lost their lives In the ivll war had the vision of a united country. If tney could have seen. her growth in power and resources and splendor, they would have said, "It was worth the price." We have ourselves Just passed through such another crisis. We hive seen the young men of our days ai-io rising at the call of their country. "Their eyes beheld the vision and tbe dream," but it waa the vision of a free world, delivered from the wick- el ness of arbitrary power. When we lay flowers upon the graves of the older heroes, we shall i i ve in mind' the thousands of white rosses which mark American graves oa the fields of France. And with oar gratitude to them will come the hope that the world will be so mult better through their sacrifice that in i no to come it may truly be said, "It was worth the price." o President W. P. Davidson of the Oregon A Western Colonization Co., arrived In town last night in company with ii. F. Johnson, the local repre sentative of the company. They re port some late sales of grazing land to residents of the eastern part of this county to the amount of some thing over 6000 acres. The sales during yesterday and the day before are: C. R. Peterson 177"i Vale Trading Co., 640 Mrs. Mallnda Hunter, 1040 C. J. Hunter 660 J. L. Cary, 640 Frank C. Klater UlSO Mr. Johnson stated to the reporter that they had many other deals pund- lug mid expect to close some ten or more while In town today. This activity In grazing laud sale shows the disposition of the stock men to own their own pastures and be more Independent. The recent designation of the enlarged homo. stead has a tendency to main, the stock man realize that his outsld I range is going to bo a tiling of the past in the near future If this land proves capable of carrying a suffi cient number of stock to Justify the man acquiring It. The man who has his own range, secured at a uoin-i inal price, is going to be the success ful stockman of the future. Some of the oldest men In the business are taking advantago of the opportunity to get grazing land while It may be hud within reason. The rules governing the permit to graze stock on the forest reserve Is another argument favorable to the purchase of private land for grazing purposes as it appears there is a tendency to bold each man down to a certain number regardless of the capital or ability to rare for a greater flock or herd. This has caused many to take kindly to the purchase for grazlug purposes. o Father of Burns Visits Town Founded In 1883 Miss Columbia la happy now thati Swat the fly.

These have frequently to be mixed or "compounded." In this compounding great care must be used. Sometimes a few grains too much of a drug would prove fatal to the patient. Or substituting one drug for another would be equally dangerous. The one great aim of this store is Accuracy in Prescriptions Every ingredient must be of known purity and strength.
