MINT CROWING LUCRATIVE. Production of 17,000 to 20,000 Pounds of Oil In Eatimated. BROOKS, Ore., Jijly 0. Krom 17, 000 to 20,01,0 pounds of peppermint oil fiom plants grown in Central Ore gon this year is the estimate by Adolplfr Zeifle, dean of Oregon Ag ricultural college school of pharmacy, who is spending purt of hU vacation in the intere.-fts of the Oregon Pepper mnt Growers' Co-operative associa tion. Since July I, Dean Ziefle. has been working near Brooks, Cobure, Newberjj and other points instructing the farmers relative to approved meih-' ods of planting and cultivating pep permint plants. He expects to super vise all harvesting "d distillation of all peppermint plants grown in Cen tral Oregon this year. "The average price of oil last year was $5.25 a pound," said "Dean Ziefle. "Should this price be offered this year, peppermint will be the most valuable crop farmers could raise. From all indications the yield of pep permint, oil will be grea'Jer this year than last because of the fact that the season has been almost ideal for pep permint culture." , Experiments are being conducted in the school of pharmacy on pressure distilla tion, as well as the effect f certain weeds on the quality of oil of peppermint. The Mint Growers' association is planning to refine its raw oil, and in order that the refin ing process may be under supervision of the faculty of the school of phar macy, the plant may be located in Cor vallis, said Iean Ziefle. . .

Miss Arnistrnug's posilioa In the La Grando schols Is the only va cancy at (he present lime. Her suc cessor has not been decided on by the board of education. "I feel like Tanlac has chipped twenty years off my ago, for I've gained thirteen pounds in weight by taking It and feel so well I beJU:e I could go out on the farm and do aa god a day's work as I over could," said William H. Connell, well known retired farmer. 393 Kast Ninth .St(. Portland, Oregon. "Yes, sir, I feel like a young man again and I am here to say Tanlac will be my" standby from now on. For practically a year before I com menced taking It I had been feel ing all out of sorts, not exactly sick but had no appetite, didn't relish anything I ato and . realty went to my meals more from habit than bo cause I wnated to eat. I seemed to have no life or energy, fell weak and worn out all the tfmo ami my sloop Boomed to do mo no good, fur I went to bed tired and got up in! the morning feeling sluggish and no good. I was all run dowa and badly in need of something to build me up. "I want to say right now I hero's nothing to compare with Tanlac when It comes to giving a fellow an appetite and building him up. Why, before I knew It I was outing like a hoist and now I feel just as well as I ovor did la my life. I am just brimful or new'llfu and energy and for a man of sixty-live that certain ly speaks welt for the medir-lno that causes it.
