Who Make$ the Be$t
Extract of Vanilla?
Two things are ebeolutely necessary in
the preparation nt Extract ot Vanilla The
flrsi and most Important one Is to have the
rery best Vanilla Bean to start with Not
Tonka at (1.00 a pound, Tahiti at S3.50
Bourbon at 16.00, but the genuine Mexican at
about 112.00 per pound. Then an Extract
cannot be made in a day or a week, but
should take 30 to 60 days in the preparation
and after that should be allowed' to stand
and ripen three or four months.
50 Per Cent- Less
Heretofore we have been giving a two
ounce bottle for 25 cents the same price you
pay your grocer for the dark heavy Tonka
Extract, But today we have turned over a
new leaf and are now putting up a plain 8
ounce bottle of the Bame quality we have
always sold without increasing the price.
We believe every housekeeper within reach
of our store will use our Extracts altogether
when tbey have once tried it, and by making
it better as well as cheaper we hope they
will all try it
What we want to do is to prove the
superiority of our Extracts and then throw
in 60 par cent extra for good measure. At
another time we will have something to say
about our Lemon Extracts, our pure spices
and our kitchen supplies.

LOCAL COMMENT.
The mill employes mean business in
the matter of a co-operative meat mar
ket, and the matter will no doubt be
carried to a auccessfal issue. At least,
the business will be given a thorough
trial. Wag j earners cannot be blamed
for organizing for self protection against
the combines. Wages have not been
advanced, while the the commodities
are steadily advancing.
It is now an assured fact that Cane
mah will soon have another line of rail
road to connect it with the outside
world. One transcontinental line aloce
did not satisfy the residents of Cane
mah. Oregon Oity is slowly becoming an im
portant shipping point. The establish
ment of commission houses, and produce-purchasing
agen ies are already
having their effect A fact evidence d
by the recent shipments of car-loads of
potatoes and onions. The business is
growing too.
Jint senator porter has introduced a
bill to tax the inheritances and legacies
left widows and others. Why don't be
get his bill through to tax the earnings
of corporations?
Potatoes is the crop tint is adding to
the golden harvest in Clackamas county
this year. In fact, it is celieved that
the potato product is bringing in more
monev than any article raised here. The
crop is sure, and a profitable price is al
ways assured sooner or later, it pays
to plant a field of potatoes one year after
another, in addition to the other crops.
Hops and potatoes were the money pro
ducers during the past year.
The Dewey Washer,
The Dewey washer does away entirely
with the washboard and can be easily
operated while sitting down. In three
minutes the machine will wasti a tuo
full of clothes. I guarantee the Dewey
washer will do all I claim. Orders by
mail will receive prompt attenton. Ad
dress me at Oregon City.

Why any one should ever have de
sired to own or to visit an aquarium
is a mystery. The view of flsh, exeppt
when nicely grilled or when suspended
at the end of a fishing line, Is one of
the most uninteresting of sights. The
other animals v1ien In confinement dis
play traits which are more or less In
teresting. The lion has a sense of hu
mor and displays It In the most pleas
ing way when he devours the Hon
tamer who has entered too often Into
bis cage. The hear In his thirst for
buns seems so much like the human
boy that the spectator of hla nutics
frequently feels an Irresistible desire
to hit lilni with a stick. s
But the flali has not a single Inter
esting trait. He will swim around the
tank In which he Is confined with a
persistence which Is maddening to the
nervous spectator. He never engages
In a genuine fight, but contents himself
with an occasional surreptitious bite
of nn enemy's tall, which gives no true
satisfaction to the beholder. If he
happens to be a large snake thinly dis
guised as an eel or nn octopus or some
other alarmingly ugly fish, he will
sometimes swim directly at the glass
through which the visitor Is looking at
him and thereby give the latter a mo
mentary sensation of horror, but the
average fish cares nothing for the pub
lic and treats bis visitors with calm
contempt. An aquarium without fish,
like a seashore resort without the sea,
la unobjectionable, but an aquarium
with real water and real flsh Is the
dreariest object In nature. W. L. Air

J, A. McGLASHAN, Manager
Stores Oregon City and Portland
Fields Gets Practically a New
Franchise.
The Oregon Oity and Southern Kail
way Company was practically granted a
new franchise. Under the new amend
ments granted by the board of commis
sioners the order rescinding the fran
chise is practically set aside. The Kail
way Company, under the new conditions
will lay a track along the retaining wall
of the river basin, instead of in the mid
dle of the road, as formerly, and to be
at no place more than 18 inches from
the outer edge of the wall, exceptat such
places as will leave 10 feet or more clear
wagon road. The entire county road
bed, including that part occupied by the
rails, is to be planked with four-inch
lumber, and the company is to construct
and maintuin a good, strong handrail oa
the side of the road next to the river,
and to make all necessary repairs with
out cost to the county. Cars are to be
run at a speed not exceeding five miles
an hour.
By the new terms the road shall b
completed by April 3, mil ess delayed by
legal proceedings.
The Railway Company further agree
to pay a superintendent 'i per day U
look after the county's interest in the
const! uction of the new road between
Oregon City and Canemah. In fact, the
Railway Company has already paid inte
the court the sum ot $51) to be applied on
the salary of such superintendent. The
county hoard of commissioners will ap
point such superintendent. It is under
stood that considerable of the opposition
to the road has been withdrawn.
