Is whatwe want. We don't
call on you one week for it and
tell you the next we cannot do it for
you. We want it now, and all the time.
We do not think: it necessary at this time to say
anything about the class of work we turn out
The fact that we have been in the LAUN
DRY business for twelve years in La
Grande we think sufficient evi
dence that our work is sat- '

Washington, Feb. 17. Secretary
Taft will have a busy week of cam
paigning beginning today In New
England, where he will contest with
Hughes for popular favor. . He will
speak before the Taft club of Con
cord, N. H., tomorrow, and on Wed
nesday will go to New Haven to ad
dress the Young Men's Republican
club and to attend a meeting, of the
Tale corporation. The Taft club of
Conecltcut, which how has over 1000
members, will ,be his official escort
Frank Butterworth, a former Yale
football player, is president of the
club, and Taft is officially supported
by Yale men in his campaign for the
presidency. '
It was the original Intention of the
club to give a dinner In honor of Sec-
retary Taft In the Yale, dining hall,
but permission to do this has been
flAnioA h Rwntftrv Rtnkes of the
Yale corporation, who thinks that no
Yale building should be used for po
litical purposes.
The strenuous week of Secretary
Taft will end Saturday night at Buf
falo, where he will deliver an address
on the political Issues of the campaign
at the annual dinner of the Elllcott
club. '
While Secretary Taft Is campaign
ing In the east, his principal opponent
for the republican presidential nomln
atlon will not be Idle. Governor
Hughes will Invade Cannon territory
on Saturday, when he will be the
principal speaker at the annual ban
quet of the Union League club of Chi
cago. The Invitation Is of a year's
standing, and It Is likely that the
governor will take advantage of the
occasion to give further expression to
hla political views.
Several district conventions for the
selection of delegates to the republi
can national convention will be held
during the week. The convention of
the Fourth Ohio district will be held
In Sidney tomorrow, that of the lltn
Ohio In Warren on Wednesday, and
the 7th Missouri In Sedalla tomorrow,
and the 9th Missouri In St Charles
tomorrow. All of these delegations
will presumably favor Secretary Taft
The democrats of Oklahoma and
Kansas will hold state conventions the
latter part of this week, when dele
gates to the Denver convention will be
chosen. Bryan is a decided favorite
In both of these states and no other
presidential possibility will be
sldered.

FARMS IN
MOUNTAINS
An interesting .experiment In fruit
raising and grass growing in the Blue
mountains In Umatilla county is now
being conducted by W. O. Warman,
the only permanent settler In Fly val
ley, t" miles southeast of Pendleton,
says the East Oregon lan.
Mr. Warman set out an orchard of
different varieties of fruit trees last
fall, wrapping them well to prevent
the rabbits from peeling them during
the winter, and Is now In correspond
ence with the agrostologlcal bureau
of the department of agriculture as
to the best kinds of grass to aow In
that altitude.
He will make every effort to grow
an orchard and also an extensive
meadow on his Fly valley farm and
his experiments will be watched with
much Interest by Umatilla county
people. The altitude of Fly valley
is about 4000 feet and Mr. Warman
la the only permanent resident there.
A "number of tracts of land are
owned In the valley by stockmen but
no other attempt-to farm or cultivate
the land of that secluded mountain
valley have been made,
it Is thought that If the experi
ments by Mr. Warman prove to be
successful that thousands of acres of
excellent mouataln similar - to that
found In Fly valley all over the Blue
mountains, will be cultivated In the
next few years. In the vicinity of
Meacham and Kamela at an altitude
