OREGON, TUEflDAY, JULY
VALE RAISES SEED ALFALFA f
AND GETS GOOD RESULTS!
VALK, (Jr., July 13. Owing to the
backward iichh of the Spring, the al
falfa crop will be comparatively light
this year in Malheur county. How
ever, the M-ed crop bids fair to ba
pxwdingly good. This is a new
feat urc that has been introduced into
the f anning within the last two yeara,
and one that is gaining ground every
year. Heretofore the alfalfa hay
crop ha been the major crop in tliij
part of Oregon, but it haw been found
that the soil is betcr adapted to the
raining of the need, and that it is
more profitable to cut only one
early crop and then allow the alfalfa
to seed.
The farmers in this section realize
from $50 to $100 an acre from the
seed, and it is not uncommon for the
yield to bring $120 an acre. This is
exclusive of the first hay crop.
WOULD PAY $500 FOR
RIDE IN AEROPLANE
WASHINGTON', July 133-Secre
tury William B. Ilnyward of the re
publican committee is willing to pay
$.100 fora ride in a Wright brothers'
aeroplane. Ho so declared himself
to a (.'roup of Nebrnskans in the lob
by of the Hotel Willard.
'I had the first automobile in the
state of Nebraska," said Ilayward,
"and I played in the first pnme of
golf in that state outside of Omaha,
but I never was so crazy about nnv-
thing as I am about the Wright fly
in? machine. . I would be willing ti
give .4.100 for the glory of being their
first regular fare."
Prepaid Raiiroao Orders.
"Something which is of consider
known is the system of prepaid or
ible interest to the public generally
and which is perhaps not generally
ders now in effect between stations
of the Southern Pacific company
and all points, in the United States.
By means of this system tickets may
be purchased nt Medford from any
place in the United States and mail,
ed or telegraphed direct to the party
wishinc to come here. Sleeper ac
commodations and small amounts of
cash in connection with these tickets
may also be forwarded at the same
tune." "

Attest: BEN.T. M. COLLINS,
Recorder,

On. w. En.ugfa.
The British academy once had print-
rl a few copies of an important work
for presentation to some foreigners
ivho, from their prominence in the sol
intlflc world, were best entitled to be
honored with the sift. Professor Airy,
tho astronomer royal, was requested
to make a selection of the names. A
few days after lie had sent In his list
he was Informed ly tlie secretary of
tbo admiralty that "my lords" were
struck by the number of unknown
names included mid that they wished j
to make an Inquiry on the subject.
Airy asked the secretary for some
specifications as to the names referred
to.
"Well, as au example," said the sec
retary, "here is the name of Profegsor
XI. F. Gauss of Gottlngen. Who Is be?"
"Gauss is one of the greatest mathe
maticians of the age and stands among
the two or three most eminent masters
in physical astronomy now living.
Who else do you wish to know about?"
"No one else. That will do," replied
the secretary.
What Man Owe to Bird.
"It should be realized." said a nat
uralist, "that without birds to bold in
check the insects vegetable life soon
would cense and lift) for man would
become imimssible upon the earth.
Birds are nature's check to the amaz
ing power of Insects to increase. If
insect life were allowed free course it
would soon overpower plant life, and
therefore animal life. Including that of
man. would be impossible. This is an
astounding conclusion, but It Is the
conclusion of science. If tbe birds
were gone very soon the leaves would
disappear from the trees, and tbe limbs
would be festooned with the webs of
caterpillars or with masses of their
nests. These would move from tree to
tree, increasing by the million as they
advanced. In the course of a few
seasons there would be no trees. In
the fields other species of insects would
destroy tbe grass and the grain and
all vegetable life, and tbe ground
would be as if a sea of devouring
mouths had passed over it." .
Laziness.
"Laziness is responsible for too
much of the misery we see abont us,'
said a clergyman. "It is all very well
to blame alcohol for this misery, to
blame oppression and injustice, but
to what heights might we not all have
climbed but for our laziness? We are
too much like the supernumerary In
the drama." he went on, "who had to
enter from tbe right and say, 'My lord.
the carriage waits."
" 'Look here, super. saM the stage
manager one night 'I want you to
come on from the left instead of tbe
right after this, and I want you to
transpose your speech. Make it run
hereafter, "The carriage waits, my
lord' ' ( .
"The super pressed his hand to hii
brow.
" 'More study, more , study r he
groaned.
The Dragon Tree.
The dragon tree of Tenerife Is per
haps the strangest vegetable in the
world. It is thought to be a kind of
giant asparagus, whose dead branches
serve as a support for the crowns.
New roots as tbey come into being
encircle and conceal the original stem,
which is far away inside, and the
roots which become detached from the
stem may be seen banging withered In
the upper tree. The trunk is generally
hollow, and in tbe case of an old tree
which was destroyed in 18G7 there
was a spacious chamber which had
served the natives as a temple tor gen
erations. The tree was forty-eight
feet around and ulncty-flve feet high
and Is supposed to have been origi
nally watered with dragon's blood,
which is the name now given to the
sap. This is a regular article of commerce.

SPOKANE ARMY LASSIES
MUST NOT ENTER SALOONS
SPOKANE, Wash., July 13. No
more money will be collected in tha
saloons by the Salvation Army las
sies in Spokane. Adjutant Dean
states that many of the supporters
of the army and many of the active
members have been compluining
against this work for some time,
holding that the omney should se
cured in some other way.
The fact that women of the army
are the ones who will sell the paper
is responsible for this action. The
officers and supoprtera of the army
ure not in favor of having women
enter these places to sell the publi
cation. Help for Those Who Have Stomach
Trouble.
After doctoring for about 12 years
for a bad stomach trouble, and spend
ing near $500 for medicine and doc
tors' fees, I purchased my wife one
box' of Chamberlain's Stonach and
Liver Tablets, which did her so much
good that she continued to nse them
and they have done her more good
than all of the medicine I bought be
