Also, your laud never gets old, at least if rightly handled. The fertilizer from the cow« and hens will go a long way towards keeping tho hind up. Show me a man, woman or child who takes good care of tin' live stock and I will show you a good citizen. The farm home is getting better every day.

All I ask id' the people is to help the things that help you. Always ask for Cottage drove made bread, butter, lard, bacon and other articles made in Cottage drove; Oregon products next. Kvery Oregon made piece of goods sold makes more market for your produce and more pay days for Oregon people. If you need feed or poultry supplies, come and sis* me or phone i»7. Also phone I’owell & Burkholder if you have anything that you wish deli vert'd by our ear. J. F. SPRAY.
