Ship timber is specially selected and

there are requirements for a great

the new vessel, since white cedar in
the correct form is becoming hard to
secure. When the keel is finished and
the vessel gets to the point where a
full force can work the yard will be
employing about 40 men on the job.
The company has a very favorable
chance it is said, of scouring a second
ship to build for .the Charles Nelson
company, and before the summer
breaks Kruse & Banks will probably
have the yard running at full capacity.
Unprecedented solicitude for food

press, the following, from the Rose

item: "As a result lof the unusual
cold weather that has prevailed in
Oregon during the past few weeks,
many people took upon themselves
the burden of providing wheat for the

children who in some Instances' placed
sacks of wheat where it could be found

Albany Herald: A car loaded with
4 tons of flour was shipped from the

York yesterday. A. W. Bowersox,
manager of the mill, says that this is
the first time in 17 years that ne has
been in the business in this city that
such a shipment has been made to
New York. He says big shipments
have een made to various other parts
of the world,1 however.

A tragic incident of this 1861 storm

the commencement of the snowfall 16

It is an unusual thing for a drug
gist to sell medicine under a guar
antee to refund the money if it does
not cure. . Yet this is the way La
Grande Pharmacy, the popular drug
gists, are selling Mi-o-na, the standard
dyspepsia remedy. .
Never before have they had so
large a number of customers tell
them that a medicine haB been suc
cessful as with Mi-o-na. People who
a few months ago looked like walk
ing skeletons have put on flesh and
today are ruddy and vigorous with
perfect; digestion and good health.
There i no longer any need for
aiiyueo sutfering or making their
irsf-TMi suffer on account of dyspepsia.
Mi-o-isa can always be relied upon.
The percentage of cures is so great
that there is little risk to them in
guaranteeing to return the money if
the medicine does not relieve. And
they stand ready to do so without

Polk county Observer: A. move

argued that this sort of a creamery,
under proper management, will pay
the farmers from 25 to 30 per cent
