Save Meat-
Smoke it the mewl-
' em way. . .
The old method of smoking meat was expensive ,
because the process caused material shrinkage.
Meat is too valuable nowadays to waste, so we
i, ... ' use
' LIQUID SMOKE
This preparation is extracted from the smoke of
hickory wood. It is concentrated smoke which
can easily be applied with a brush. Meat smoked
by this method does not shrink, so there's a sav
ing in weight. It is easy and economical to use
and gives a decidedly improved flavor to the
meat. Buy a bottle now and have it on hand
when hog-killing weather comes.

will not be heavy, however, as this

WALLA WALLA MAN'S
EVENTFUL JOURNEY
a tot1.! distance of sixty-five miles
by squaw-pack, sled and automobile,
is the interesting story told in the
issue of the Elgin Recorder of January
2llrd. The tale, exactly as it appear
ed in the Kecord, is as follows:
"Only one who has traveled the
crumbling and dizzy trails paralleling
Minam river can realise the nlmosc
hopelessness of one who falls iil twen
ty miles from the mouth of that
stream, but that the position is not al
together hopeless was related to a Re
corder representative in La Grandtr
Sunday evening by Herman Trippeer,
former well-known young man of Cove
but now the leading veterinary sur
geon of Walla Walla. Trippeer, who
is associated in the cattle business
with Guy Dutton of this city, left
point to get medical aid. His condi
tion was such that Trippeer and Fore
man decided that to leave him there
invited death. "They went down to the
forks of the Minam to where the log
ging camp of the Minam Lumber com
pany is located and held a consulta
tion with Superintendent P. S. Robin
son and employes and it was decided
to make an attempt to take the sick
man down tho river to the little vil
lage of Minam. Cold weather had
prevailed several days and it was de
cided to transport Hale over the ice in
a hand sled which was packed in for
use at the logging camp. The next
morning, January lllth, Trippeer and
Foreman succeeded in getting Hale
down to th camp, a distance of three
miles, using a squaw, pack. At that
Walla Walla January 1 for the Dut-i point he was placed on the hand sled
TAKEN ILL IN MINAM COUNTRY
ItKOI (HIT DOWN RIVER 20
MILES ON SLEI).
How a sick man was hauled on a
sled twenty miles over the frozen sur
face of the upper Minam river to the
town of Minam, and from thero taken . to say nothing of riding a horse twen
m n nin.or car to Hot Lake, covenr trjty or twenty-five miles to the nearest
ton ranch to enjoy an outing of a few
days and to aid Ranger Foreman of
Cove in building a bridge across the
Minam river at that location. Ac
companying Trippeer was L. C. Hale,
a young man of Walla Walla, who had
recently recovered from an illness
contracted while attending W. S, C.
at Pullman. The two arrived at their
destination on January (ith, going in
by way of Cqve. A day or two later,
Hale suffered an attack of rheuma
tism and -within a short time was ut
terly helpless, being unable to sit up,
and three men of the camp volunteer
ed to make the trip to Mtnam, a dis-
countered where carrying the latter
had to be resorted to. They enjoyed
a good rest and a lunch at Stock
mart's cabin. Refreshed, they resumed
the trip and pulled in at Minam at
5 o'clock that evening, tired but happy
in the knowledge that they had per
formed in good time the task they
volunteered to do.
"Awaiting Hale at Minam was El
mer Fulk with an automobile, having
been directed over the telephone that
runs to Cove from the Minam ranger
station to proceed there and meet
the party. In exactly two hours af
ter leaving Minam, Fulk reached the
Hot Lake sanatorium, where Hale is
now on the rapid road to recovery. .
"In a perilous condition on the up
