PREGON CITY ENTERPRISE.: FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 7, 1906.
A CORRESPONDENT
BECOMES FACETIOUS
And
at Same Time Gives Farmers
Needed Advice on Burn
ing Slashings.
Logan, Ore., Sept. 4. It never rains
in Oregon, no never.
Everybody and his dog has gone to
the hop yards. -
If the hop season don't bring rain,
guess some one will have to start a
camp meeting. That will, surfe.
Miss Mary Swales and her mother
leave next Sunday on an extended
visit with relatives in Kansas and Ne
braska.
Miss Elsie Falert is expected home
the first of the week.
Mr. J. C. Sprague, of Corvallis, is
in Logan this week.
Mr. Myron Babler is : home on a
visit.
Slashing fires are getting to be quite
numerous, and it's a wonder that
there has not been more damage
done, as well, as all vegetation is so
dry. :
H. E. ICross burned his , slashing
Saturday,; but so far no damage is re
ported. Last week a slashing on the Breith-
aupt place was burned, which might
have caused serious damage, as char
red leaves and cinders fell on the op
posite side, of the river, setting fire
in many places, and prompt action
was all that saved what might have
been a serious fire for the people of
Arthur's Prairie. The old adage, "self
preservation is the first law of nature"
should be, "self-interest," as it seems
most conspicuous in many people's
nature. No real christian citizen will
set fires at such a time as this, even
If he knows his own property will be
safe, he must also think of the dam
age that may result to others.
Gerber brothers finished threshing
on Arthur Prairie Saturday, and in a
few days will be through for 1906.
Mrs. M. H. Riebhoff has a sister
from Washington visiting her this
week.
Mrs. F. S. Hutchins spent her birth
day very pleasantly at the home of
her parents, Mr. and Vlrs. Byers.
Mr. Geo. Herren, a commission man
from Portland, was here recently buy
ing up "spuds" to fill an Alaska order.
Mrs. M. Frakes, who has been quite
ill with rheumatism, is reported some
better.
Grandma Higgins is reported to be
improving in health.
Louis H. Kirchem is sick with the
mountain fever at Gladstone hospital,
but expects to be out soon.
Miss Margarette Riebhoff is on the
Bick list this week.
Tellefson Bros, are around with
their new steam hay baler, doing
things up in quick order.
Grain is good here. Mr. Wilson
claims his oats averaged 92 bushels
per acre, and wheat 50 bushels. W.
P. Kirchem had barley that averaged
55 bushels per acre. On an average
oats went about 50 bushels to the acre
in this locality.
The stork has made his appearance
in Logan again, this time at the home
of Mr. Gus Fischer, and its a boy, too.
Gus has lost faith about a charm in
third numbers.
Grange was not quite a failure Sat
urday, but very near it Many were
afraid to go on account of fire; others
were too busy.
We hope the young ladies who re
ceived a serious shock to their nerves
on Friday last, have completely recov
ered; also hope they found a way to
capture that poor tiny mouse that
caused such a rush for standing room
on top of the dining room table, kitch
en stove, etc. Six girls ,all afraid of a
baby mouse. Bravo!
If It's A Reputation
you are after, White's Cream Vermi
fuge has a world wide reputation as
the best of all worm destroyers, and
for its tonic influence on weak and
unthrifty children. It improves their
digestion and assimilation of their
food, strengthens their nervous sys
tem and restores them to health and
vigor natural to a child. If you want
a healthy, happy child get a bottle of
White' Cream Vermifuge. Sold by
Huntley Bros. Drug Co.
Don't use harsh physics. The re
action weakens the bowels, leads to
chronic constipation. Get Doan's Reg-
ulets. They operate easily, tone the
stomach, cure constipation.
Liquor License.
Notice is hereby given that we will
apply at the next regular meeting of
the Oregon City council for a renewal
of our saloon license at our present
place of business, Main and Eighth
streets.

what is necessary. It soothes the
throat because it reduces the
irritation ; cures the cold because
it drives out the inflammation;
builds up the weakened tissues
