CREAM SEPARATORS
"STOP!" and think before, you juy a sep
arator. Thero are many things to be con
sidered in the purchase of a cream separator.
You want the lightest running machine on the
market. You want the machine that is the
easiest to wash and keep clean, you also want
the machine that will produce all the butter fat
And above all you want a durable machine so
that you wont be continually paying for repairs.
Now the famous Empire Separator is the ma
chine you want as it has all these advantages
over every other machine on the market.
Any company can make claims but let us
show you the Separator that makes good

Colonel Bryan will deliver a Fourth of
July speech in London.
La Grande will certainly be well rep
reisr.tcd at Ein uu Pioneer day. it
looks now as though wc will be there
several hundred strong.
With a big saw mill, an increased O.'R.
& N. payroll; with bumper crops of all
kinds, fruit, hay and grain, La Grande
ought to move some this year.
The Fourth of July celebration will be
the sort which will please the old folk as
well as the children. The management
promises ample drinking water and
seats.
The boy who saves his money becomes
the banker, the merchant, the professional
man. The boy who never saves a cent
makes the man who earns his bread by
the sweat of his brow, who never owns
a home or enjoys the luxuries of life.
Frank L. Merrick, who so successfully
managed the press bureau of the Lewis
& Clark Exposition, has taken charge of
the publicity of the Alasna- Yukon Pacific
Exposition, which will be held at Seattle
from June 6 to September 30, 1909.
Since 1898 there have been completed
for the French navy, thirteen armored
cruisers, which may be divided into five
types: Three units of 7,700 tons, three
of 9,500 tons, five of 10,000 t. ns, one
of 11,500 tons, and one of 12,500 tons.
In addition to these, there are under con
struction three additional cruisers of 12
500 tons, and three of 13,600 tons.
James L. Branson, the inventor of the
knitting machine which bears his name,
was found dead in the stable attached
to his residence at Doylestown, Pa.,
some weeks ago, having been killed in
some manner by a horse. His knitting
machine was invented during the civil
war, and it is said to have yielded him a
profit of $60,000 in three months.
The farmer, if he only knew it, is a
little nearer the Kingdom of Heaven than
anyone on earth. He is certain of three
square meals a day and is the only man
who can fence himself in and live in spite
of the rest of mankind. A few cattle
and sheep and fowls provide him with
iooq and clothing, while his fields yield
him flour and a source of revenue. So
generous are those provisions and so com
mon, that hardly one farmer in ten makes
any account of them, although the ordin
al y business man thinks he has done well
when he reaches the end of the year and
finds that he has a little more than made
ends meet.
It has been said by good men and true
that the president revolves in an iron
gasket, that he is powerless to act with
out the consent of Congress, that he is
bound by them, hand and foot. Mr.
Roosevelt seems to have disqualified the
