Therb eeema fo be' some probability
that quarrymen and stone-dresers will
gradually be crowded out of their occu
pation by the use of artificial stone. In
the manufacture of this stone, sand is
heated and mixed with ab.ut 12 per cent
of rement. The mixture is then placed
in steel moulds,whit;h are in turn placed
inside a large steel cylinder, which is se
curely closed . Boiling water U then
turned in under pressure sufficient to
force it through the sand and cement
in the moulds. This slacks the ement,
but as the steel moulds do not allow any
expansion, the mixture becomes as hard
as stone, and Is dried under a heavy
pressure. The result is a very hard
stoue, much cheaper than the natural
material.
Thb move of the National Live Stock
Association tj secure the passage of a
bill through congress providing for gov
ernment inspection of woole-is should
meet with success. There should be a
government inspector of all tex'ilesnd
a law requiring manufacturers" to brand
their goods just what they are. If they
are woolen, cotton, silk or shoddy, let
them be branded in plain figures bo that
the purchaser may know ju-t what he
is buying. Woolens are perhaps more
adulterated t .ian any other class of fab
rics, therefore most rigid regulations
governing their inspection are desirable.
It would be protection not only to the
consumer but also to the producer, as it
would to some extent prevent his pure
products coming in competition with im
itations. The Dalles Times-Mountaineer.

Oregon, has not half the exhibit that our
state has, and part of what it was bor
rowed from our commissio.iers. Oregon
is quite well advertised, but not as much
as it should, still we, as delegates to tne

made from choice California figs and
prunes and sound, well ripened grain so
blended that all the nutriiive propetties
of fruit and grain are retained.
The beverage made from Figprune is
a distinct revelation to cereal coffee
drinkers because of its delicate tiavor
and aroma.
Mr. A. S. Rix, president of the com
pany, iu a reoi-nt interview stated
that the success already attained by
his company was due, lirat, to the fact
that Figprune was the best cereal cofl'ee
ever produced ; second, that the adver
tising mediums used bad been selected
lor their actual merit only the best pa
pers beina used.
it is pleasing to note that this paper
is one of the mediums selected by the
