Coroner Rainier GRASSES WASTED Sow is the time to send in the best specimens procurable of lirasees aud Forage Hants. I want as Urge a collec tion of these as possible (or Columbia County's exhibit at the State lair. I know the season has been unfavorable, but it has been better in Colninbia County than In many other sections of the State with which we may have to compete. There is nothing advertites a county better than it's grasses, and we certainly giow them to perfection in Columbia County. Some have been tent iu, but I want a large quantity, and I want them from every part of the county. It is not much trouble lor auy farmer to bring or send in a few speci mens, and it will help greatly in making creditable showing. Now is the time, and I sincerely hope, before another week fjoes by to have received a large number of good samples of alsike, red top, timothy, alfalfa, vetch, wild pea, orchard grass, and in fact of all the dif ferent varieties of grasses and forage plants grown in Columbia County. Send them or bring them direct to me, properly lablled. Act now, while you have it in your mind. Send to E. H. FLAGO St. Helen?, Ore.

(Washington Star) Luther Burbaok, at a dinner in Santa Rosa, replied modestly with an anec dote to a eulogy of his new creation, the spineless cactus. "Really, you know," said the plant wizard, "the spineless cactus is noth ing like so marvelous as the straw-tjerry box that the fashionable fruiterer of ti e East uses. That is a creation indeed ! lie tmiled. "A fashionable fruiterer," hi: mil' "told hia new boy one Juue morning to go to the back of his shop and Oil a box with two-dollar strawberries for Mrs. Van Guide. "The boy a moment later called fruui the rear: " 'Hey, there ain't enough Iwnies here to fill this box." "The fruiterer buried back himself. He looked at the box, tLen he aneeied at the boy. " Why, you young greenhorn he said, 'you've gut it upside down !' " The Burning Question. - (Success Magazine) A Baltimore teacher was trying to ex plain the ueaniogof the word "recuper ate."
