ARTICLE JiO. S.
The Transformation which has
struck the Sandrldge country chang
ing hundreds of acres of wheat land
Into orchards cannot be appreciated
unless one sees It. Where the self
binder formerly operated In the fall
during the wheat harvest now the an-
ple pickers and packers combine their
efforts In harvesting a crop of fruit
that means hundreds of dollars to one
dollar produced by wheat
And that transformation Is onlj
started. One might truthfully say
that fruit growing on the Sandrldge
has only fairly begun.
The Wilson orchard, which has been
mentioned before, Is only one of sever
al successful efforts In changing from
wheat to fruit.
Another extraordinary orchard pro
ject Is that of the La Grande Invest
ment company near Allcel wherein C.
C. Pennlngtotis, wheat ranch was pur
chased by William B. Sargent and J.
K. Wright, who form the ownership of
the La Grande Investment company,
and by them, planted to fruit. For
years this was one of the best wheat
ranches In the Grande Ronde. It
made C. C. Pennington wealthy from
wheat production. He sold It at an
exceptionally high price for wheat
land. But what Is it worth today?
Really, it Is hard to estimate Its
value. When that large tract gets In
to full bearing the owners can set
their price on it and the value will be
there. Some of the tract has been cut
up into small-acreage which has been
purchased by Investors under contract
that the La Grande Investment com
pany will care for the orchards for a
certain period. . In many instances
the Investor did not see the land when
he bought It, but many If not all hav
been on the land since and it takes
but one visit to assure the owner of
smaller acreage that he has an In
vestment which time will make very
profitable.
This Is true of several other tracts
that have been cut up and put on the
market. There Is not a single In
stance of dissatisfaction In the Imbler
Allcel district.
(Now there Is but one reason for
this an Ideal fruit country produc
ing Ideal .fruit.
This being true, let us get at the
main reasons for this success.
Sub-irrigation is vital to fruit, and
the Sandrldge has it. x
Elevation Is necessary to raise the
apple that will keep the Sandrldge
has that.
Climatic conditions that Include
some rigorous weather are essential
for the life of the apple tree and to
keep it healthy. This the Sandrldge
has.
Plenty of sun to color the apple is

Reasons why you should vote for
Geo. L. Cleaver
For Congressman from this District
lie believes that true Democracy means that the
individual is the government and that the moraliza
tion of the individual is the most important reform
possible. : .
He believes that little progress can be expected
morally, ; mentally, physically or politically when
the government backs up the -consumption of 25 gal
lons of intoxicating liquor by each individual an
nually. ; . '
He believes also that the beverage liquor traffic is
the biggest moral, financial and political question
iKbefore the American citizen today and that it can
be settled only by administration. He has been a
Republican Prohibit'onist all his life, but he is op
posed to the protection tariff and believes that every
other honest man is.
ne circulated the Roosevelt primary petitions in
Eastern Oregon because of hs great faith in the hon
esty and ability of Mr. Roosevelt and in hope that
the Prohibition clause would get into the Republi
can platform this year..
Don't vote for Mr. Cleaver because he is a Metho
dist; or because he is a farmer, or because he is a
banker, but vote for him because he. will hit the bev
erage l'quor traffic" and the protective tariff in the
neck at each and every. opportunity.

PENINSULAR
Steel Mailable Ranges
V are the World's leaders in houses of our land
Over 100 of these fine ranges sold in this city during the past fifteen
months is the strongest argument of its superiority it
is possible to make. It is the ONLY RANGE MADE
carrying a 25 year wearing guarantee. No j Range
makes cooking such a pleasure as does a Peninsular.
S Oris REASONS WHY
FIZLT It requires no blacking, has polished
top, just keep it wiped off with a cloth.
SECOND It will heat and bake as quick as gas.
AYith a little kindling and a few chunks of coal you will v
have a red hot stove before you can get dressed in the
morning. . . '
. THIRD It is absolutely airtight, controlled by 'a
duplex draft, causing it to consume all'gas as it gener
ates, thereby saving one-third the fuel.
I OUR OLD RANGE OR STOVE TAKEN IN PART
PAYMENT.
You will notice that it has a large, square oven, and an extra wide but shallow fire
box. The range rests on a cast iron base making it extra strong and durable. One
of the greates't features is the height of th e working space, it being 33 1-2 inches
from the floor. This enables you to prepare your meals in a comfortable way,
and obviates the necessity of bending over a low base range. Study the cut care
fully and you will find more desirable and needed features than in any other range
at a like price. , 1
