A furnltur-3 and house-furnishing establishment that Is taking Its right ful place as one of the leading insUm tntiuiia of Eastern Oregon Is the F. D. ilulsten concern. Mr. Hatstett- has been In La Grande for several years, lie started as all start, In a modest way, but his energy and constant ap plication to business has bullded a business that is a credit to large capi tal and a direct monument to his per sonal ability. Where the Haisten store used to buy goods In small quantities, shipped by local freight, now It buys in carload lots. This fall has marked an enoch in Its career. The store on Fir streoi has been remodeled so that every Inch of floor spnie can bo utilized and the building la filled to overflowing with standard goods. One of the strong features of Mr. Halsten's business system Is his dis position to help along the man who has only a few dollars and at the same time create good healthy business for his store. Any person who is hon est and honorable can go to Fred Haisten for a housekeeping outfit and get It If he only possessses a very few dollars. He sells the goods on easy payments and according to records he has been one of the most lenient men in the country to dealVlth. "I like to help the other fellow," said Mr. Haisten to an Observer reporter several da.vs ago, "not that I can af ford to help him at my own expense, but I have arranged my business so that I can give time which after all is worth some times a great deal more than money. Any person who Is on the square can come here and do bus iness with a small payment down. He can get everything from a rocking chair to a cook stove and a bed for the baby. I am never quite so happy as wh'3n I go to the home of some man whom I have assisted to get a house keeping outfit. Of course there is the business 'end to It, but there Is also a sweet satisfaction in living when j you can render assstance to your fel7 lowman." i What Roosevelt Did as President N DRINK HABIT RELIABLE HOME THE.lT.MEYr.

Currey Real Estate Agency. I have the 520-acre farm of E. W. Oliver for sale as a whole or can sell a separate 80 acre tract, two 120-acre tracts and 200 acres, which include the improvements. The price is $100 per acre, one-third cash, the balance on five and ten years. This farm is all high grade sandridge land, in the midst of the choice fruit section of the valley, commercial orchards on all sides of it. The improvements consist of a large barn that cost $1800, which cannot be duplicated today for the money; seven-room house; deep well, 465 feet inexaustible supply, 5000 gallon tank. One half mile from Valaria school house, B. F. D., one mile to Conley station where two large warehouses are lo cated; seven miles from La Grande; splendid roads at all times of the year.
