The electric lights over part cf
the city, on the went side of Main

Saturday and Sunday night and
the general use of lamps and can
dle recalled memories of the lonf
ago, fhowins that though the rail
road has not yet come l'rineville

would be hard today to omit the
use of electricity, telephones or
water mains.

Many telephone poles on the
road to Powell Buttes and Bend
have rotted off at the bottom and
fallen, carrying the wire down
with them. The wire must be of
unusually strong texture, as it has
n no case been broken and in
nearly each instance -continues -to
support the weight of the fallen
poles. But sleet and a cold snap
next winter will surely lix it and
cut off wire communication.
Jim Wilson and Bruce Ileisler
of Paulina, Ben Gotter of Red
mond, and John Alden Seabury of
Prineville, recently explored the
itlle known cavern which has its
entrance in the middle of the flat
some six miles southwest of Pau
lina, back of the Roberta ranch.
The entrance is email, but the cave
slops downward at an angle of 40
degree i for nearly 200 feet, with
traces of water at the bottom. In
all there are five interior shafts,
but in no place can a man stand
upright, though the roof ia 60 or
70 feet across. The feeling inside
is that the roof is about to crush
out one's life. The cave is occu
pied by a colony of porcupines in
the winter and has been christened
Porcupine cave. ,

Which
CREAM
SEPARATOR
is Cheapest?
Several catalogues houses arc I
nfTrini inst as frrwvlM rrenm qptu P
... 1 j r, r
ar.ltors or sale at a lower price
than the U. S. Cream Separator
sells for. But before the unfortu
nate purchaser of one of these"
"mail order" separators gets
through paving the repair bills he
finds that first cost isn't the only
dilference. The " cheap " separat
ors soon get out of nx because
they are built of cheap material.
and loosely put together. The cost of repairs alone-in the first year or
two would pay the difference in price between one of them and a U. S.
Hut more important still they do not skim clean, they waste cream at
every.skimming. ,
U. S. CREAM SEPARATORS
have stood the test of time. Many of them have been in use for io years
or more, and have cost their owners next to nothing for repairs. They
are easy running, skim cleaner than any others, have a simple, easy-to-wash
bowl ; enclosed, safety gearing and a convenient, low milk tank.
See a U. S. Separator for yourself that's the best way. They are sold by
The Horton "Spinner" wash
ing machine. One of the
latest and best machines on
the market. Price is no
higher than for old style
machines.
