Jf we are going to have a county
' fair worth the name, something should
be done to bring; It about. Fairs are
Hot like the crops In Drande Ronde
valley grow without attention. We
have had enough of that kind. If we
are going to have a fair, let Us have
one that will be a credit to ous coun
ty.

W have a nest egg for our celebra
tion next year. Ovr $100 left after
paying all tho ex pernios of one of the
most successful ceolbratlons ever- held
In Union county. Afteb all, money Is
not the only requisite In having a good
time. A lot of loyal people Is a mighty
fine asset In Fourth of July celebra
tions, as well as In other undertak
ings. f- ' : ; .
It seems odd to witness the chronic
ling of the different mllltla companies
leaving for their annual, encampment
t American lake, and La Oruude not
being represented. For more than 20
' years La Granda maintained a mllltla
company ""until the post year. 'This
should not be. We have the boys, the
boys need the training and our coun
try needs trained boys. Plops should
be taken for reorganisation.

solvent and preserrative chemically

which is a better solvent and preserva

esiding in most of onr indigenous or

intrinsic medicinal properties, of great
talus. . ,r
Sa woman who is suffering from
Inflammation, from the pains and
drains incident to womanhood can
afford to be without Dr. Pierce's Fa

cine which has the largest number of
cures to its credit and a deserved popu

United 8tatPt. Dr. Pierce tells you
