Bollinger, who has charge of the First Congregational church of this city for several years, and from here called to the Highland church, he is meeting with great success, and the following is taken from the Satur day's Portland Journal: "Rev. E. S. Bollinger, pastor of the Highland Congregational church, was called to Oregon 20 years ago by the missionary authorities of the Evangel ical association, and served the Salem church until the division of that de nomination. As a result of that di vision he became superintendent of the Oregon State Institute for the Blind, serving In that capacity four years, from 1891 to 1895. During this time he became identified with Congregational Ism and served the Congregational church at' Astoria three and one half years. Mr. Bollinger was caned to the First Congregational church of Oregon City in the beginning of 1899 and en joyed a very happy and sucessful pas torate there, of nearly eight years. In October, 1906, he came to High land church. This church Is locat ed In the most rapidly growing section of the city. It was founded not quite five years ago and has enjoyed a con tinued growth. It now has a mem bership of 130, a Sunday school of 3E0, a commodious church edifice and a beautiful parsonage Prescot Btreet, a few blocks east of the church. No man is, happier in his work than Mr. Bollinger and he hopes to realize great expectations in Highland. The church has assumed self-support and is making a favorable showing in all the benevolences of the demonstrat ion. Before coming to Oregon Mr. Bol linger served Grace church, Baltimore. He married, January 19, 1887, Miss Lil lle F. Delninger. The family consists of three children Charles F. of Oregon City; Helen E., a student at Pacific University, and Alice M., aged eight."

Henry Hornshuh was visiting his relatives here Sunday. George Kirbyson and son, Harry, came home Sunday to stay until after the Fourth. While playrhg ball Sunday Ben Fisher was severely hurt in a head-on collision. He was down and out for awhile, but no doubt he will be all right for the next game. The presiding elder for the Portland district preached in the Evangelical church Sunday afternoon. Considerable dissatisfaction Is felt towards the committee who had charge, of the ball game last Saturday, in the treatment of the snuoel team. The agreement was to let them get a pitcher and catcher wnere they could. Instead they got five outsiders, four from Canby and one from Oregon City, paying J5 per head, while tne Shubel team spent considerable money and helped bring out a crowd, and got what the little boy shot at.

The Farm Journal is quite full of news notes for the farm, It says of the garden and orchard in June issue. Muzzle the horse and pad the out side portions of-whiffletrees and har row when cultivating the orchard; thus avoid all bruised and "barked" trees. File the hoes and keep them sharp. Stir the soil frequently; and always remember that a hard crust will form after a rain if you don't loosen up the soil promptly. Sow cucumbers now for the pick ling. When the vines begin to bear, pick all the fruit every ray or so. Let none go to seed (ripen) if you want the vines to continue bearing. Frequent and shallow cultivation should be the rule In the new straw berry bed; and also In the raspbery, blackbai-ry, currant and gooBtebfcrry patches, If the last four are not mulched. No grain or grass crops in the young orchard, please. Cultivation is best. Stir the soil every two weeks until August. 'Tis a good plan to throw two or three forkfulls of manure ar ound each tree, after a rain. SPIRITUALIST CAMPMEETING. Many Prominent Speakers Are En gaged for the Coming session.

FdElYS IMMEICI m Cures all Kidney and Bladder Diseases Guaranteed HOWELL & JONES, Reliable Druggists. To prevent a scabby crop of pota toes, soak the seed for two hours In a solution of one-half pint of formalin (formaldehyde) in fifteen gallons of water. Then plant the seed in soil which has not recently grown a crop of scabby tubers. Watch for the little slugs dark ish, slimy fellows that are likely to be on pear or cherry leaves now Fine dry dust, if thrown In the trees, will kill every slug it covers. Or almost any of the regulation orchard sprays will exterminate this pest. Pumpkins planted among the com hills are no special hindrance to the crop if the ground is very rich. They are sometimes a great benefit In a dry season; the leaves and vines cover the ground and keep it from drying up after cultivation ceases, Cabbage and tomato plants can be safeguarded against cutworms, by In serting a circular paper fence in the soil around each stem. Any stiff pa per will do. Have each fence about one and one-half Inches above ground, and the same distance away from the plant. A gentleman who made the ex periment the past season recommends moth balls as an effective means of keeping the striped beetle off the cucumber, squash and melon vines. The remedy is not only Inexpensive but easily applied, only one ball being required for each hill. The Bordeaux mixture is the proper remedy to use for all fungous troubles viz., mildew and rust of beans; pota to andomato rot and leaf blight; me lon and cucumber diseases; asparagus rust; celery leaf blight and rust, etc. The half-strength mixture (2 pounds copper sulphate, two pounds quicklime fifty gallons of water) is strong eno ugh to use In the vegetable garden, except for potatoes. When the chicks have grown to that age when danger from the ills that they are subject to are past and their owner is counting upon them almost as though they had reached maturity, the hawk may appear. Not always circling high overhead, but sneaking like a huge cuckoo through the trees, he will suddenly pounce upon a chicken, even close to the house. The hawk, like the crow, is is afraid of a small bright tin can on a pole, for the same reason, probaly that it looks like a gun barrel. Watchfulness and vlllence are nec cesary to save chicks where hawks are concerned. At about this time In a chicken's life there may also danger from foxes. There are more foxes in many local!- We sell the best White Lead and guaranteed pure Linseed Oil at Portland prices. We have a $400 stock of Brushes to select from at prices from 5c up.

Very early in the morning, as the dark ness retreats and day dawns, sly Rey nard may also now be seen retreating in its shadow to the woods. Care, therefpre, should be taken to see that young chickens are safely shut in each night. A good spring trap is of service here, as it is also where wea sels are concerned; but there Is al ways more or less danger pf catch ing some pet animal in it. In combating the chick's enemies, therefore, care, watchfulness and jud gement should be observed and a good gun should be kept handy where It will back up all three. Proper care and vlgllence are nec essary to protect chicks from their natural enirales. Crows when they have young in the nest are constantly on the lookout for a chance to sleze a fat young chick, and they are likely to take the largest in the brood Bright tin cans on poles , and wire or string stretched near the coops will tend to kep them away, but the best method is to have a covered run for each coop or brooder. Chicks to do the best cannot be confined In these runs all the time, and so on range vigilance should be used as regards the crows. Let a crow once secure a chick from near a coop or brooder, and that crow will return again in the effort to get more, and so if proper care is not taken chicks will disappear rapidly.
