(lEli DP-WORK All business except very urgent mutters, have been ordered suspended by the land office commissioner until all entries have been transcribed into the new system of accounting that has. been adopted by the land offices. The new system has been in vogue several months, but so congested hua been the condition of the land office here that the transcriptions were be ing made slowly. Since the new. or der went Into effect the work has pro gressed more rapidly. ( During the past week there have been no applications or final proofs made In the local office, a fact that has been favorable to concerted effort on back work. The special accountants who are ex porting the books of Receiver Roberta are still burled In their work. It Is too early to guess at the time when the Investigation will be finished. Enterprise Creamery. The Enterprise creamery completely refitted with new machinery, will start operations In about two weeks. The deal between Mr. Blckford and his partners, the Tulleys, Is completed, and the latter will continue to operate the Wallowa plant, while Mr. Blckford will put in a new plant here. Ha has al ready ordered a new churn, cream vat and other machinery, and when all Is Installed he will have one of tlio finest, up-to-date creamery plnnts In eastern Oregon. The business will be known as the Enterprise Creamery. Mr. Blck ford also retains the agency for the Do Laval separator. The same push and energy that made the Wallowa Valley Cream company a big success, will no doubt continue In the upbuilding of the Enterprise creamery. News Record. I BLUE MOUNTAIN HOUSE T. J.

Fortunately we had a bot tle, of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy In the house and gave It to her accord' Ing to the printed directions.
