WILL EXPERIMENT WITH
ASP ABACUS IN KLAMATH
KLAMATH FALLS, Or., Pee. 23.
It is the opinion uf persons familiar
with the production cf asparagus that
itcan lie grown on an extensive scale in
the Klamath country, and Charles H.
Pierce of Ashland, Or., has proposed to
the people of this section that they ex
periment with the product the coming
summer if they meet with success he
and others will at once establish a can
nery. Several of tho land owners in the vi
oinity of this city will experiment with
asparagus next spring, and if the par
ties are as successful on a large scale
rb some of the truck farmers have been,
Pierce and his associates will be called
upon to erect the cannery at the close
of the Reason.
WATER TAX MAT BEAT
CRATER LAKE ROAD TAX
KLAMATH FALLS, Or., Dec. 23.
The petitions asking the county court
to make a special levy to raise $f50 000
for the construction of the Crater fake
road are being largely signed in all
parts of the county, but it is evident
that the strongest support the propo
sition has comes from Klamath Falls
and Merrill, -and the farmers residing
iu the vicinity of these places. In the
eastern part of the county, especially at
Bonanza, there is considerable opposi
tion, but still several of the heaviest
taxpayers of that locality have signed
the petition. . , .. ,
More of the fanners would sign it,
but they are not positive that they can
stand an additional tax if they are com
pelled to pay the high government wa
ter tax.
LUMBER PRESIDENT PREDICTS
CHEAPER LUMBER NEXT TEAR
CHICAGO, Dee. 23. Edward Hain
lately elected president of the Virginia
and Rainy Lumber company, the larg
at combine in the wrM of its kind,
predicts cheaper lumber asd a nw era
in its production as a result of the new
organization.
"It is our intentiftn to cheapen the
cost of manufacture and. of course, to
cheapen the cost to consumers propor
tionately." snys Trains. "We will not
do this, however, at the expense of the
country by reckless or wasteful lumber
ing methods.
"We will work in harmony with the
forest departments nf the Vnit"d
States and Canada, ond we hop to
make money out of the things that
they will ask up to do. TYr instance,
we will utilize all the tin -h t on the
ground we cut over. We w ll not sim
ply pick out the- choice trees, leaving
dead wood and brush to feed forest
fires. We will clear the land bo that
instead of being a worthless Wilderness
after it is cut over, it will bo valuable
for farming purposes.
"We are also hoping that a further
reduction may be made in the cost of
lumber to American consumers by the
taking off of the tariff. The greater
part of our land is in Canada and this
would enable ub to bring the Canadian
lumber into the United States, a thing
that the tnriff practically prohibits
now. '

Doan's Kidney Pills Hart Done Great
Service for People Wao Work
in MedfonL
Most Medford people work every day
in some strained, unnatural position
bending constantly over a desk riding
on joltink wagons or cars doing labor
ious housework; lifting, reaching or pull
ing, or trying the back in a hundred
and one other ways. All these strains
ten to wear, weaken and injure the kid
neqs until they fall behind in their
work of filtering the poisons from the
blood. Doan's Kidney Pills cure sick
kidneys, put ew strength in bad backs.
Medford ourcs prove it.
Thomas J. Williams, Oakdale street,
Medford, Or., says: "I suffered for a
lone I"16 1"5,p fci&B4y and bladder
trout!?. The pains through my back
were so severe at times that I could
hardly endure them. My kidneys were
disordered and I had to arise many
times during the night to pass the se
cretions. I was subject to hgeadaches
and waa very dizzy, especially when I
stooped. I did not got relief and be
came discouraged. Doan's Kidney Pills
finally came to my attention, and I
procured a box at Haskins' drug store.
They soon banished the trouble and I
have not had a return since. I cannot
speak too highly in praise of Doan's
Kidney Pills." 41
