Home Independent Telephone Company War 'w Would Ilrlng Serious- Hun ' dlcup. Chicago, Jan. 17. A ludicrous lol of cab, dray and farm horses would be the only mounts for national guarn and regular cavalrymen lu case of war, Jud&Lug from the scarcity of horses for the Chicago mounted po lice. Investigation has shown, that the motley steeds hired for the annual I. N. CS. encampments and maneuvers are the best that could be expected for real service, and consequently cav alrymen are alarmed. They attribute the scarcity of light horses to the heavy Importation of draft stallions which has occurred during tho last 50 years. During Hie civil war the offi cers experienced little or no difficul ty in mounting their men but In these days of progress the prosperous farm er no loncer keeps a line team of carriage horses; he buys an automo bile and conllnes his stable to heavy draft horses which can be used to a greater advantage on the farm. The mounted police of C'liieago and .Vow- York ride some of the finest animals ' in iiif coumry our so nnni are uictie to secure tfi-af they employ men to hunt the country over to find the few horses they require and pay as high as f too for a single animal. There are now said to be four blooded draft stal lions to every blooded stallion of lighter build and In some western states the ratio Is as high as eight to one. There are now appruxtmately 27.0IH) horses in the regular army; an outbreak of hostilities would require twice that number and every four to six months would require a complete new issue of mounts. "At the present rate of breeding draft and light hors es we would have to mount our men on heavy horses," said a cavalryman, "but nn army cannot be mounted on drafters It it is to uHe its cavalry and Held artillery to nn advantage. All modern countries have found it neces sary to encourage the breeding of l'ght horses and America has at last followed Its example by establishing breeding stations where a farmer can breed his marc freo of charge and be assured a good price for the colt. The only obligation tho farmer incurs Is to allow the government nn option of $150 when It is three years old. The supply of light horses would gradual ly Increase under this plan and If war should break out there would be LF APPEALED TO ALDERMAN WANTS CHILI) HO TO ENTER) CONTESTS. Would Like to Have Oregon Outdo the Oilier Slates In This Respect. years old who raised corn 14 feet high. Let us show people that we are the most alive children la the world by 75,000 out of our 125,000 children ex hibiting at the county fairs, and 35,- 000 at the state fair. Last year 14, 000 children In Iowa had exhibits at fairs. Let us beat them two to one. FREE IF IT FAILS. To the Teachers of Oregon: Know ing that you are willing to co-operate tn educational work I ask you to co operate this year by encouraging all your pupils in the growing of. crops, domestic science and poultry ralslug. Children like to do things and will re spond to your encouragement. Your county will hold a fair at which your pupils will be asked to exhibit what they raise or make. The best of these exhibits will be brought to the state fair where liberal prizes will be awarded. Ask your pupils how many of them would like to have a Shetland pony, a thoroughbred Jersey calf worth $100, a pure bred pig that would take the I prize at any stocii show, a pure bred sheep with wool so thick that they j would have to feel around to find its eyes, or a goat with- flossy hair that reaches to the ground; or secure a line Scotch Collie puppy tiiat knows j as much as some people, or win tv( money prize that will buy just what they want. All these prizes and many more are to be given at the state fair next fall. Ask if they know how to grow po tatoes, pumpkins, squashes, corn, pop corn, et cetera. Ask liow many of them like watermelons or musk mel ons. The reason so many boys and girls In Oregon do not grow water melons Is because they aro afraid tho other boys will steal them. If they all grow water melons there will be no one to steal. Ask them It they know how to feed, chickens. If they buy three settings of eggs from one neighbor, nnd three hens from another, and In March put the two together they will probably raise some prlzo winners for the fair. The children of Oregon can double the egg production in threo years. Ask them if thoy know that tho si7.o of the pumpkin does not depend upon the size of the boy or the girl who plants the seed.

We are so positive that our remedy will permanently relieve constlpntlon, no matter how chronic it may be. that we olTer to furnish tho medicine at our expense should It full to produce satis factory results. It Is worse than useless to- attempt to cure constipation with- cathartic drugs. Laxative or cathartics do much harm. They cause a reaction. Irritate, and weaken tho bowels and tend to make constipation more chronic, lle sldes, their use becomes a habit that is dangerous. Constipation is caused by a- weakness of the nerves and muscles of the large intestine or descending colon. To ex pect permanent relief you must there fore tone up and strengthen those or gans nnd restore them to healthier ac tivity. We want you to try Rexall Orderlies on our recommendation. They are ex ceedingly pleasant to take, being eat en like candy, and are ideal for chil dren, delicate persons, and old folks. as well as for the robust. They net directly on the nerves and muscles of the bowels. They apparently have a neutral notion ou other associate or gans or glands. They do not purge, cause excessive looseness, nor create any Inconvenience whatever. They may be taken at any time, day or night. They will positively relieve chronic or habitual constipation, if not of surgical variety, and the myriads of associate or dependent chronic ailments, if taken with regularity for a reasonable length of time. 12 tablets. 10 cents; 3(S tablets. 2."i cents: SO tablets. 50 cents.
