This plan was attempted in La Grande shortly after the railroad was built. The first company had an elevator on the main line a little northwest of where the A. B. C. laundry now stands. It was built by the Pacific Coast Elevator company; was a hundred feet high and had a capacity of 100,000 bushels of grain. It was designed among otner wings to clean barley for shipment to St. Louis breweries, the Grande Konae barley being at that time considered the best kind available in the entire country . for brewing purposes. A Becond large grain elevator was also built by Hamilton & Rourke, a grain buying firm of Pendleton. Neither structure was used for the exclusive purpose of handling grain from the producers to the cars. .. The construc tion ot tne Dranch line to cigin aiso had its effect in eliminating La Grande as the principal grain shipping point of the valley. Both elevators were eventually destroyed by fire, and since that-date the grain warenouse has taken the place of the old-fash ioned grain elevator. News of Twenty-Four Years Ago. "The citv assessors have already passed the f 600,000 mark and are but little more than two-thirds through with their job. Parties from the Cove renort that their section has but little more than half the amount of snow there is on this side of the valley. , The return leap -year party will be given in Steward's opera house next Wednesday night. Invitations for the affair have already been sent out. IWhen it comes down to the pastime of coupling cars and being otherwise useful in tne railroad yards m. j. Bucklev and G. A. Mulcady are a whole .lot better than green hands a fact which the two gentlemen dem onstrated during the few days in which the switchmen took a lay-off. At the annual election of the La Grande Athletic club the following of ficers were elected: F. L. Meyers, president; Dr. N. Molitor, vice presi dent; William Miller, secretary; A. B. Huelat, treasurer; R. L. Lincoln, J. W. Knowles, F. T. Abbott and M. J. Buckley, directors. , .: Fireman Pond, who was killed in the recent wreck, took the. place on the run of Fireman Thompson who was kept in the yards as a hostler. It is a singular fact that Mr. Thomp son has twice escaped disasters to the engine he belonged. Engineer Law and Fireman Miller, on engine eoa, were killed in the wreck near La Grande. This was Engineer Quack- enbush's and Firemari Thompson's en gine but for some reason they did not go out on that run. "COLD-PACK" CANNING. Most Satisfactory Method of Packing Fruits and Vegetables. . The live different methods of can ning foodstuffs most commonly used may be classified as follows: (1) The open kettle, or hot-pack method: (2) the intermittent, or frac tional-sterilization method; (3) the cold-water method; (4) the cold-pack single period method; and (5) the vacuum-seal method. The most popular method and the one recommended by specialists in chare-e of club work in the depart ment is known as the "cold-pack." This simply means that the products are racked cold in their fresh and natural state in the glass jars or con tainers. To the fruits, hot syrup is applied; to the vegetables and greens, hot water and a little salt for season ing is added. Then the sterilization is done in the jars or containers, af ter they are partially or entirely sealed, making it practically impos sible for bacteria or spores to enter after the product has once been care fully sterilized or cooked. In follow ing this method vegetables should first ha blanched in boiling water or live steam, then quickly dipped into j cold water, the skins removed, and tho products cut into suitable sized pieces. The products are then packed in containers and sterilized. Leaflets N. R. 23, 24, 28, 33, 34 and 37 of the department contain detailed instruc tions and recipes. By this "cold-pack" or coio-nu method of canning, many food pro ducts can be successfully sterilized in a single period with but one handling of the product in and out of the pro cessing vessel. The recipes referred to apply equally well to home-made outfits as to tne several types or com mercial sterilizers. Practically every type of fruit jar manufactured can be successfully handled in connection with this method. About Well Known People 4 4 - .j. b St Paul, Minn.

After reading of so many people in our town who have been cured by Doan's Kidney Pills, the Question na turally arises: "Is this : medicine equally successful in our neighboring towns?" The generous statement of this Union resident leaves no room for doubt on this point. J. M. Johnson, proprietor of bar ber shop, Main street, Union, Ore., says: "I think cons bant standing weakened "by kidneys, causing pain and soreness in my back. One day a customer who heard me complaining, told me Doan's Kidney Pills were good and I got a box. I used them but a short time before I was con vinced that the man who recommend ed them to me knew what he was talking about" (Statement given No vember 8th, 19U7.J Over five years later, Mr. JohiiBon said: "I use Doan's Kidney Pills oc- eassionallv and find them just the thing for irregular kidney action and kidney ailments."

You insure because you want to relieve yourself of a heavy and un certain liability. The risk and uncertainty is assumed by a financial company that operates on such a large scale that the laws of average the individual uncertainty become a definite quantity. WHAT INSURANCE IS SAFEST? " Insurance in an old-lino corporation is by far the safest and best, and in the long run tho cheapest. WHY? 1st, because they have large securities and capital guaranteed by the government; 2nd, they write such an extensive amount of insurance that the law of averages removes the danger of a few large losses upsetting the company, a menace always hovering over small companies; 3rd, an old-line com pany completely assumes your risk, while if you insure in a mutual company or society you still carry a ipercentage of your own risk and assume the same percentage of all the risks insured by the company and automatically you become liable as a member of a concern over whose operations you have practically no control. DOES IT PAY? In exchange for a certain payment the stock company entirely as sumes your liability of loss for a definite amount. If you suffer a loss, of course it pays to have insurance. Still you do not want a loss even if you are insured. But you protect yourself as far as possible against loss from an uncertain though probable cause, by paying a small and certain amount. By so doing you relieve your resources from sudden strains, and free your capital for active business or living uses. LET US WRITE YOUR INSURANCE. Whether it is FIRE, PLATE GLASS, AUTO, LIFE, ACCIDENT, AND HEALTH, BONDS or any other form, of INSURANCE the above applies. Ws have strong companies, we write on equitable rates, we give prompt attention, ana oner reliable ana experienced services. GEORGE HUNTINGTON CURREY, Manager Insurance Department. Geo. H.
