PROVISIONS
More provisions ana men were ta
ken to the front today where H.e pipe
line is being dug for the Beaver
Creek water project This brings the
total men employed at this time to
more than 100 as the big consignment
of men . expected from northwest
points did not come. One group of
30 was started this way, but 13 "es
caped" after reaching almost to this
point, having had a free ride out from
Portland. These were white men.
The balance of that batch are now at
work.
The work is coming along as rop
ldly as the limited number ot men
available to bring it. It now becomes
evident that the shortage of both
white men and Orlentlals Is acute.

The demand for young fruit trees
In the Northwest bus been bo great
the pant few years as to moke It
almost impossible for the nursiea
to keep up with the demand. Thou- i
sands upon thousands of trees are
planted each year the acreage become !
greater. The fruit industry In .de- j
veloplng rapidly and the demand both :
foreign and local Is more than keep
ing abreast with, the Increased out
put. There seems, apparently, to be
no limit to the consumption of choice
apples, which represents the great
volumn of fruit grown. Few locali

"Throw out the Life Line" .
The kidneys need help.
They're overworked can't get the
poison filtered out of the blood.
They're getting worse every minute.
Will you help them?
Doan's Kidney Pills have brought
thousands of kidney sufferers back
from the verge of 'despair.
Will cure any form of kidney trou
ble. Mr3. J. T. Galloway, C St., Elgin,
Ore., says: "In view of the benefit I
derived from Doan's Kidney Pills, I
can only speak of them as being a
reliable remedy for the kidneys. I
used them principally for a severe
pain acrops my back, which had an-
j noyed me for some time. The re
I suits that followed the use of the first
! box were so satisfactory that I con
' tlnued taking the remedy until my
j hack was free from pain. I cheerfully
j recommend Doan's Kidney Pills."
