AFRICA LIKES Milium NORTHWESTERN FRUIT GROW ERS' PRODUCTS FIND SALE. "Skookum" Label Brings an Answer of "Bully" From New Yorkers. : r e ' ; ' REGULAR APPLE SALES ON. . , : . $ Home grown apples which have been of the best grade all this S S season, are now in the markets in box quantities and the selling of green or ripe apples by the pound is almost over. Winter supplies $ of thin fruit are being laid in and 3 a brisk sale is reported from both wholesalers and retail merchants. Portland," Or., Oct. 14. So well pleased have South African buyers be come over their purchases of apples in the Pacific Northwest this season that it is likely that practically all the for eign apples hereafter bought for that market will come from this section. The Northwestern Fruit Exchange of this city secured some rather lib eral business this season from Johan nesburg parties. 'This was their first experience, with the fruit from this section and they are mighty glad that they made the experiment. All told the South African parties purchased 25 cars of apples in the Pacific North west. , ' ,. .' .:.' . ', '"; . : ; Prior to coming here they had pur chased about 76 cars at Nova Scotia as in former years they had' purchased all their requirements there. Hear ing even in Nova Scotia of the won derful fruit of the Pacific Northwest, the Johannesburg parties took the first tram lor Portland ana soon made their initial purchases. The last shipment of Pacific Northwest apples to South Africa' will be made via Montreal, Oc tober 28th. : The fact that the new fruit crop of their home sections comes into the markets about the turn of the year precludes further purchases, for this season here. The first carload of Jonathan apples marketed under the "Skookum" label of the Pacific Northwest, has reached New York and a wire to this city says that the stock was in "bully'.' condi tion. Such expressions from the New York trade for anything except the leading varieties of "-' apples really means something. It indicates that after all the quality of Pacific North west fruit is breaking a few records. Market quotations today are: BUTTER AND EGGS. Fresh ranch eggs 40c. ' ' Butter Fancy creamery, 49 cents.

Sends an Itemized Statement -j the Valuations of Oregon Agriculture. Oregon Agricultural Collem. Cnr. vallis, Or., Oct. 14.-(Snecian The sum of $200 for every man, woman and child in Oregon would be their share of the value of the state's airri. cultural products for the present year, if distributed equally among them. The valuation or iarm products is almost $140,000,000, according to the esti mates of Dr. James Withycombe, di rector of the experiment station, and the population is slightly under 100.- 000. If the number of farmers in the state is 60,000, perhaps an over esti mate, the average share of the farm er is about $2,800. The exact valuation placed unon farm crops by Dr. Withycombe is $74, 099,166, and the value of other agri cultural products is estimated at $65, 405,600. The grand total is $139,605, 326. This is almost S14.000.000 Great er than the valuation last year, and indicates great prosperity.' The aver age Oregon farmer seems to be get ting beyond the reach of hard times.

BIG EATERS SET KIDNEf TROUBLE Take Salts at First Sign of Bladder i. Irritation or Backache. ,'; , The American men and women must guard constantly, against kidney trou ble, because we eat too much and all our food is rich. Our blood is' filled with uric acid which the kidneys strive to filter put, they weaken from over work, become sluggish; the elimina tive tissues clog and the result is kid ney trouble, bladder weakness and a general decline in nealth. When your kidneys feel like lumps of lead; your back hurts or the urine is cloudy, full of sediment or you are obliged to . seek relief two or three times during the. night; if you suffer with sick headache or dizzy, nervous spells, v acid stomach, or. you' have rhumatism when the weather is' bad, get from your pharmacist about four, ounces of Jad Salts; take a tablespoon- ful in a glass of water before break fast for a few days and your kidneys will then act fine. . This famous salts is' made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and has been used for generations to flush and stimulate clogged kidneys; to neutralize the acids in the' urine so it no longer is a source of irritation, thus ending bladder disorders.' Jad Salts is inexpensive; cannot in jure, makes a delightful effervescent litbin-urnfcir hevitracra. and belonirs in 1 every home, because nobody can make a mistake by having a good kidney flushing any time. ripe Overflow to Roundup Park. (Pendleton East Oregoniun.) To pipe the overflow from the new reservoirs to Round-up Park for the filling of the artificial lakes was the Dronosition un before the city water commission for. discussion last even ing, and the commissioners view the nroDosed dan favorably providing the Round-up board showed a willingness to Dav a Dortion of the cost. When the eravitv water system is i completed there will be a big overflow j of pure water from the reservoirs on i the south hill and it has been the pur pose of the commission to pipe this in j a straight line to the river. However when the Round-up directors com menced excavating for artificial lakes at the park they conceived the i'ha of utilizing the overflow for furnish ing the lakes with an everchanging supply of fresh water. The matter was nronosed to the commission last inight and it was the sense of that body that the city would be willing to pay for the laying of the pipe toward the park along a distance equal to the distance between the reservoirs and the river. A line will be run from the reser voirs to the nark and an estimate made of the cost of a terra cotta pipe. Roughly speaking it is believed that, if the Round-up board accepts the commissioners' terms, it will cost in the neighborhood of $6000. quiring the City Recorder te prepare a spwial assessment roll in accordant, with the assessment levied haseinra&il to collect such assessment the jam. being in Improvement Diatrice- No. 84 b said City of - La Grande, Oregon, is now in my hands for collection and the same may be paid tome at any time within ten (10) days from the 7th day of Oct, 1913, without penalty, ' interest ' eost; and each ' property owner is hereby notified that on appli cation to the undersigned within (10) days from the 7th day of Oct, 1013, which is the first date of the publica tion of this notice, they will be allow ed to - pay. such assessment ; in 'ten (10) annual installments, the first installment thereof being due and pay able on or before the 10th day of Sept, 1914.
