Eioked the fruit from one hundred

drying the fruit, which he expects to
dispose of at good prices. Mr. West
probably has the largeat cherry orchard
in (he county, as wail as a Urge prune
orchard, and the benefit he derivea
each year proves that fruit-raising is
lucrative business in this section.
It is fortunate that Columbia county
baa no more murder trials in the cir
cuit court than it has beeo called upon
to prosecute in the past, and it Is also
matter for consolation that terms of
court are held no oftener than they
are. The May term of circuit court
cost about $1600, witness fees being
$733 25 and jurors' fees being $090 60,
besidos the bailiffs' fees. Of this amount
the Upton murder trial cost about $650.

When the new grasses are introduced
and more silos are used there will be
no section of Oregon, or the northwest
coast tor that matter, that can com
pare with Columbia county in dairy
products. Fine grasses make richer
butter fata. This county baa already
a reputation for good butter and cheese,
but the old timers will be surprised in
a few years as the results obtained by
dentine methods.
Parsons troubled with diarroea will
be interested in the experience of Mr.
W. M. Bush, clerk of Hotel Dorrance,
Frovidenoe, B. L He says: "For
several years I have been almost a
constant sufferer from diarrhoea, the
frequent attacks almost prostrating
me and rendering me unfit for my
duties at this hold. About two years
ago a traveling salesman kindly gave
me a small bottle of Chamberlain's
Colic Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy.
Much to my surprise and delight its
Affpnta were Jm mediate. Whenever 1
felt symptons of the disease I would
fnrtifv mvaelf asaiost the attack with
a few doses of this valuable remedy.
The result has been very satisfactory
and almost oomplete relief from the
affliction." For sale by Dr. E. noes.

The large lumber raft recently taken
from the Columbia river to San Fran
cisco can be said to have arrived (here
in safety, although about a half mil'
lion feet of lumber was lost on account
of encountering severe seas and exces
sive gales. Other raft of the same
charaoter are now building in Port
land, and another attempt-will be
made to land them safoly in San Fran
cisco, which can probably be accom
plished with better success later in the
summer when butter weather usually
prevails. The success of this under
taking means much for the lumber
business of this part of the coast, a
transportation, then becomes only a
minor consideration In the matter,
when heretofore it has been the major
factor and one of the moat prominent
obstacles to that important industry.

The run of salmon was reported
much Improved this week at Astoria,
and all the boats delivered fair catches
al-tbe canneries. The traps and seines,
also, at the mouth of the river are said
to be doing well. The river is falling
rapidly, and the seinors who were
obliged to suspend work daring the
freshet have commenced seining. A
great many of them have done little
np to the present owing to the fact
that they are fishing on low grounds.
However, the best ot the season Is
from now till Augnst 10, and those
seiners yet look forward to a more than
average season.
Rev. J. S. McCombs.of Oregon City,

A much larger pack of salmon is ex
pected this year then last, although
the coldstorage enterprise Inaugurated
at Astoria this season has drawn a
good many flan from the caaneries, 80
carloads of frosen salmon having been
shipped to Eastern points so Tar, by
the Trescott Coldstorage A Packing
Company, of Astoria. Last year the
salmon pack amounted to 425,000
oases. This year there have been some
225,000 cases packed already, and the
season will not close until August 10,
nearly a month yet.
Our baby has been continually
troubled with colio and cholera in
fantum since his birth, and all that we
could do for him did not seem to give
more than temporary relief, until we
tried Chamberlain'a Colio, Cholera and
Diarrhoea Remedy. Since giving that
remedy he has not been troubled. We
want to give you this testimonial as
an evidence of our gratitude, not that
you need it to advertise your meritor
