Mow To Be Happy
A bin full of flour and a shed full of
first-class dry chain wood is enough to
make ANY man happy. Now the way to
fill th3 bin is to phone V. E. BEAN
to first fill the shed, which be done for
just half the cost of other fuel. This
would leave you plenty for the flour, and
some to help buy beefsteak and clothes
as well.

To the city of La Grande, where
there are many miniature oil proper
ty Investors, the opertletter from the
Columbia Oil & Gas Developing com
pany to its stockholders, la interesting
reading. It. follows:
' Spokane,' Wash., Oct. 15, 1908. '
To the Stockholders: ...
The development of our .- vast oil
and gas holdings in the Malheur oil
fields, is progressing very nicely.
The standard drill is now complete
in every respect, and will be running
before this letter reaches you. This
rig is one of the best in this field. It
has acapaclty of S700 . feet, and is
equipped with every necessary for
rapid drilling. This rig has been In
stalled on the southwest quarter of
section 4, township 20, range 4 .south.
Property of the company. We have
been assured by a number of Toll ex
perts that at this location we will
strlkje an abundance of oil, of a very
high quality.
, The company ha drilled eight pros
pect wells on its property, finding In
each small quantities of oil and gas,
live oil sand, lignite, gypsum and other
positive indications. In fact, every
formation and indication that oil ex
perts base their reports upon, have
been found here. The oil indications
have been so pronounced that all ex
perts who have visited .this field are
confident this field will be pne of the
largest producing fields in the United
States.
CONSOLIDATE OREGON TOWN'S.
Plan to Make Freewater ami Milton a
Suburb of Walla Walla.
, "For a combination of Freewater
and Milton, and call the product South
Walla Walla." That Is the suggestion
made yesterday by R. C. McLeod, edi
tor of the Up-to-the-Tlmes magazine.
"It Is an apparent fact," he says, "that
so long as the two towns remain, an
old, and to all appearances a Tasting
spirit of rivalry is sure to exist.
"The exhibits from both Freewater
and Milton this year are equal, if not
superior to anything ever seen in this
state, or even the northwest. The
Freewater display of fruit Is certainly
a thing of which the people' of the
little Oregon burg should be proud,
and a credit to the Walla Walla valley.
That there Is a spirit of jealousy and
rivalry between the two towns, which
are so colsely related by physical and
municipal lines, Is to be regretted.
."But, because Freewater won first
prize on Its fruit exhibit at the fair
should be no reason why Milton can
not collect a display Its equal, for the
products, soil and climatic conditions
are Identically the same In both. Un
der a common name it Is likely any
feeling of animosity which now exists
would rapidly disappear.
"Beside the probability of healing
old municipal wounds, both towns
would be materially benefited by be
ing so closely allied to Walla Walla,
the Garden City of the entire north
west. Similar enterprises in other
cities huvo proven to be of great help
In buililln? up the additions and also
la Increasing the prominence of the
parent city, it tends to increase real
estate values to a marked degree and
brings addt-d homeneekers as a result.
"That either Milton or Freewater is
nn ideal place for a home can hardly
be doubted when all conditions are
taken Into consideration. Both the
towns have every advantage and con
venience as a metropolis, and yet re
tain the seclusion and quietude so
much desired by the averago home
builder. With an hourly street car
service at the present, time, and Im
provements promised as the popula
tion warrants the same, the 'South
Walla Walla' suburb would be one of
the most desirable locations.
"As. a residence district South Wal
la Walla could not be surpassed and
It Is likely it would In time become
the dwelling place for the bon ton
residents of the city."
The plan suggested by Mr. McLeod,
ays the Walla Walla Union, has been
discussed to a limited extent In the
past, but has never attained the pro
pitious circumstances for amalgama
tion which bow seem to prevail. It Is
likely the matter will be taken up at
greater length by citizens of the towns
represented.'
