I I BETTER PAPER FOR ! llESS , . . , . . , - m V Rightly or wrongly we unconsciously judge people by appearances, and that is one reason why you should use good paper for correspondence. Good taste in the matter of stationery is indica tive of refinement, and you cannot choose amiss when you buy here. It's not necessary either to pay the high prices commonly asked. We have a nice line of box papers at 10 to 60c per box.. A gocd qu'Uty by the pound an economical way to buy 25 cents. Ruled or plain linen papers 15 cents per quire. We have a very attractive line of tablet papers from 5 cents up to 35 cents, the latter a tablet of fine correspondence paper with envelopes to match. Always glad to show these things. GIRL V !

Gentlemen: There has been In hiHti iously circulated by way of news paper advertisements, and otherwise, over the name of F. P.

BOND IACTKS MADE (LEAR (Continued from page 1.) bonds and certificates and methods he had employed during 'the recent money panic. The explanation was lengthy, but was listened to with great attention. "It was the deliberate Intention of the administration to make the offer of bonds more attractive than certifl catea: the purpose being to avoid the withdrawal of funds from the banks and to Increase the bank circulation,' reads the explanation. He showed that bonds were dls trlbuted through 40 states and cer tificates through 18. It was made public for the first time that the bonds were oversubscribed 44 times. East Oregonlan. Congressman Ellis yesterday called ipon the agricultural department to discuss the advisability of beginning he Irrigation experiments early this spring and secured from that depart ment a promise that such would be lone. The 40-acre tract was set aside for in experimental farm some time ago, but It has not been known whether the agricultural department wo :ld the state would be asked to bear the expense and furnish the experts for this purpose. The visit of .Mr. Ellis to the secretary of agriculture yes terday has settled the question und now Umatilla is assured of govern ment experiments in Irrigation farm ing this season. The tract set aside for this purpose Is near the reservoir of the Umatilla project, and Is favorably situated for extensive experiments. It can be easily Irrigated and the soil of that section of the county and it Is believed that the experiments con ducted there will serve as a safe cri terion for farmers on the government project. The beginning of the government experiments is awaited with much In terest by the settlers of that section of the county, as It Is expected that much valuable Information concern ing Irrigation and Irrigated crops be brought out during the season. iii. in in ii m W'SllHOTgRinBBBnsM v-Ji-iH J"nar 1 v ! l. i m W V-'.
