WHEN YGU ARE NERVOUS
yoii have the first symptom of a run-down
system, and nervous people too often con
ceal their aches and pains and suffer in
silence; while, if neglected, this condition
often foreruns more serious trouble.
H those so afflicted would stop taking
medicine containing alcohol or drugs
which menace the foundations of health,
and Just take the pure, strengthening
nourishment in Scott's Emulsion, it would

organs, refresh their bodies and build up
the whole nervous system. It is rich,

Prineville's
Celebration
Continued from first page.
was the Prineville battery for the
4th of July game, and although but
seven hits were gotten off Mark's
delivery by the visitors the locals
lost 6 to 1, a muffed fly ball causing
two of these. His support was
good but the team was unable to
bat in enough runs off of Galvin to
overcome the lead. The visitors al
so played a fast snappy game in the
field in this game, cutting off
several prospective runs by spec
tacular work.
The third and last game on Sun
day afternoon was won by the
Prineville boys by the scores of 11
to 3. Baker from Moro. pitched
for the locals and was very wild but
the locals put the game on ice in
the early innings by falling on the
offerings of Van Hoomison, the star
pitcher of the Knights of Columbus,
and by clever work on the bases.
Baker's support was faultless and
ne was pulled out of holes on
several occasions by fast fielding.
Large crowds attended all three
games and the receipts were large.
On the 4th, besides the grandstand
and bleachers being filled to ca
pacity, a solid bank of autos ex
tended from the right hand bleach
ers around and back of right and
center fields.
The fast Grass Valley team comes
for two games on next Saturday
and Sunday and the fans can be as
sured that they will be treated to
two fast games as Grass Valley has
a good team.

To Carve or Not to
Carve is the Question
County division representative
from both ltend and Madras were
in Prineville Sunday to talk over
county division matters generally
A meeting was called at the Com
mercial Club rooms but only a few
persons attended.
The people of Prineville do not
seem to realize that they will be
called upon to decide a most vital
question at the November election
It will then be right up to the
voters to determine whether or not
we are to have county division
Whether or not we are to have
now or at some future time? Just
where are the new county lines to
be run? Does Prineville want
voice in determining their location
or are we satisfied to take what
doled out to us?
The Bend people came over to
arrange for an amicable adjust
ment and seemed disposed to grant
any reasonable demand. The
Madras people have already estab
lished their lines.
A short time ago Prineville was a
unit against division. It was urged
that people would be taxed to death
to support county government in a
sparsely settled country. The
whole question was not taken
seriously and is not right now by
nine-tenths of the people in this
section. All the same it must be
decided at the ballot box this fall.
sixty-five per cent of the votes in
the proposed new county and
thirty-five in the old settles it
In order to arouse public interest
the Crook County Journal solicits
communications on the subject.
uon t maxe tnem too long but go
right after the division question
rough Bhod. To carve or not to
carve is the question. Don t use
the knife and then regret it. .Let
us hear from you.
Arrested for Not
Putting Out Campfire
A Bulgarian laborer, giving his
nam.e as Wollodymer Myrosbraum
was bound over to the September
grand jury last Tuesday by Justice
of Peace Bowman on a charge of
negligently allowing a campfire to
spread to the forest at the head of
Ochoco creek. Myrosbraum stated
that he was traveling afoot from
Idaho to the Willamette valley.
He was discovered asleep by
James H. Scott, employed by Far
quar McRae, near the cemetery, on
upper Ochoco, where he had built a
fire near a log. Scott ordered the
stranger to put out the fire which
he promised to do. Scott returned
sdon and discovered that the fire
had followed the log to a pine
thicket and had spread to the forest
and that the stranger was gone
By use of the telephone it was
learned that the Bulgarian was
traveling toward Prineville. For
est Supervisor Ross was notified
who with Deputy Sheriff Van Allen
placed Myrosbraum under arrest
near Howard. The fire had covered
about an acre of forest before the
ranch hands of Farquar McRae and
the forest rangers from the Ochoco
station got it under control.
At this time of the year every
precaution must be taken to pre
vent forest fires. Tne law has been
quite severe since 1911, and it is
now a crime to build a camp fire
without raking away all inflammable
matter. Fires must only be built
on the naked soil and must be abso
lutely extinguished before leaving
them or liability of arrest ensues
