Ed Kiddle, of Island City, Union connty, miller and livestock buyer. says that profits of wheat growers are melting away fast. i just bought a carload of sacks today." said he. "Paid $6000 and its just so much money thrown away, so far as the actual worth of the wheat is concerned." The labor problem, Mr. Kiddle said, is very serious in his part of the state. Con, an harvest hands, he explained, 'cannot be touched for less than $2.60 a day, with board thrown in, and it's got to be pretty good board, too." And the hands don't work any harder than when they received $1.60; in fact to some growers it seems that the more they pay the less work the men do. "I wish we had up in our county," he remarked, "some of the tellows who idle in Portland parks and streets, with hands in their pockets." The spectacle of Portland's park-ful's tention at once of farmers, who are forced by business to leave their fields and come to the city. Several members of the Leg islature, on beholding the sight, have re marked that they wished they could put a law through to compel the idle hands to help put in the crops, which their mouths will need tor food in the winter, instead of talking of socialism and the oppression of the poor man by capitalism in the sum mer shade. They do more to keep themselves poor, remarked a lawmaker the other day, "than do all the rich men in Portland put together, who profit from the pro ducts of other's labor." Mr. Kiddle said that the beet sugar crop of his county is progressing well. Boys and girls made handsome money last June weeding out the best rows, many of them from $1.60 to $2.25 a day. Ow ing to the vigor of the weeds the beets were choked out in some places and had to be plowed up. As an example of high profit in hog raising, Mr. Kiddle cited that of a farmer named Woodruff near Island City, who last month sold eight hogs, 1 0 months old, from one litter, for a net profit of $128.16 on an investment of $20 for the sow, which will soon produce another litter. The eight weighed an average of S84 pounds each and sold for an average of $24.02. To grow them cost an esti mated $8 each, so that on each of the eight Woodruff made a net profit if $16.02. He fed them on millfeed and the skim milk product of his separator. If this farmer had had to pay out of his hog profits high wages and sack prices, Mr. Kiddle said, his profits would have beengreatly reduced. -Portland Oregonian. CIRCUS BOY MLSSiM James E. Donigan an acrobat with the circus here yesterday, notified this office last evening that a . little lad fourteen years of age. . Haroid Spencer by name, had been kidnapped from the Forepaugh and Sells Bros, circus m Baraboo, Wis. and that the circus management would be pleased to get any information con earning him. It is thought that if he was not kidnapped he ran away from the cir cue and is following the company. The local police are lying low for anyone who will answer the discription. The boy is an australian. Only 82 years old 1 am onlv 82 vears old and don't expect even when I get to be real old to teal that way as long as I can get hlec tric Bitters." says Mrs. E. H. Brunson, of Dublin, Ga. Surely there's nothing else keeps the old as young and makes the weak as strong as this grand tonic medicine. Dyspepsia, torpid liver, in flamed kidneys or chronic constipation are unknown after taking Electric Bitters a reasonable tune. Guaranteed by New lin Drug Co.
