RHEUM ATISM
Rheumatism is one of the oldest of human ailments, and yet tho
Causes which produce H vas a question long in doubt. It was thought
at one time to be a disease of the bones entirely: its origin was also at
tributed to some specific affection of the nerves, and various other
theories which proved to be wrong, were put forward m an errort to
find a cure for the trouble. Under these conditions the treatment of
Rheumatism was very unsatisfactory and only of a temporary nature.
When it was determined beyond doubt that Rheumatism is a blood
disease, brought about by an excess of unc acid in the circulation, then
Its cure became a matter of purifying the blood and thus destroying
its source. . Because it is the beet of all blood purifiers S. S. S. has
been the most successful of all treatments for Rheumatism.
When this uric acid gets into the circulation it causes a partial
fermentation of the blood, which changes it from a thick, rich stream.

terday. broiiKht the second annual fat
slock uliotv of the Pai-lrtc Nivthwest
Livestock AoNoclation to a triumphal
close.
More encouragement waa given to
growers and breeders of beef, mutton
ami pork stork through the exhibitions
and sales conducted here In the last
three days, than ever ha been ex
tended them in this portion of the
country before. The most substantial
encouragement. of course. came
tliroiiKh tho cash prize distributions,
the fancy prices palrl for stock offered
for sale and the assurance acquired
of the stead; and constant demand for
dependable animals through the Port
land market.
Added and most pleasing; encourage
ment has been given by the steady at
tendance .of Portland people at each
day's exhibitions and of the growing
Interest and appreciation that the
people of this city are displaying In
what stock men term a neglected In
dustry. It is estimated that fully
10.000 Portland persons Journeyed to
the stockyards in the three duys that
the exposition waa in progress. An
other 1000 came from neighboring
cities and towns. Including the 2.1S
enthusiastic rltixens who came all the
way from the Inland Empire on a spe
rial train to participate In the competi
tion and in the sight seeing.
Prise nulls Sell Well.
Most of the Inland Kmplre visitors
left on their special train via the
O.-W. R. & X. lines yesterday morn
ing, hut many of them remained for
the final events of the afternoon. The
hustling representatives of Eastern
Uregon and Central Idaho were missed
at the salea ring yesterday, but
a sufficient number of their party re
mained to enliven the situation and
to provide some excitement In the
sales. The friendly rivalry of Idaho
bidding agalnwt Oregon for some of the
best bulls in the lot created much, en
tertainmcnt.
Fxly prise bulls and cows from the
herds of W. O. Miner, of lleppner
Frank Prown. of Carlton and Duncan
Dunn, of Wapato. Wash., went under
the hammer at fancy prices. They
will be scattered to all parts of the
three states, where they will be used
for breeding and developing the stocks
of other farmers. "Wapnlo. the bull
tlttit was sold for a record price of
$ilO. was one of the few of the lot that
went outcldo of the stale. Mlsa Jtllien,

farm near Vreka. Cal.
Mnl of ytoeka lraraTed.
O. M. Plummer of the Portland
t'nlon stockyards Company, bought
many hogs and ruttle for distribution
among farmers nar Portland. The
rompany engages in this practice for
the purpose of Improving the strain
of stock among farmers whose, herds
may be run down.
It la In the opportunity for standard
izing the type of killing stock that
these fai stock shows hava thalr great
value. Growers are ablo to attend the
exhibitions and see what kind of stock
takes the priies and what kind bring
the best prlcea on the market. They
are able thua to profit from this ex
perience. "These stockyards and these shows
are a godsend to the country, said
A. J. Splawn. Mayor of North Yakima,
and on of thn best known stock men
In the Northwest. "They have en
abled the farmers of this territory for
the first time to get decent prlcea for
thelrstock. It gives them courage to
go home and start raising good ma
terial. It doesn't pay now to raise
common or Inferior grades."
An example of how the hog-raising
Industry Is developing In the North
went Is provided In the experience of
Lee Teutxch. of Pendleton, who had a
Poland China sow and seven suckling
pigs on exhibition. Teutsch had been
In the mercantile business In Pendle
ton for 25 years until about two years
aaro, when he started farming. Last
year ho attended the fat stock show
and became interested In hogs. Through
V. O. Lively, of the stockyards, he se
cured a number of brood sows from
the carload lots that were shipped out
hero from Nebraska for distribution
purposes.
Kahlblt Plaaned a Year A Bead.
Last night ha wired his partner as
follows:
"Prepare to have a carload of hogs
and baby rows for exhibition at the
Portland show next year." Teutsch
says that many farmers In Umatilla
County are going Into the hog-ratsing
business.
"If these shows are good for noth
ing else, they serve to educate the
farmers in the kind of stock that 1.1
best fur them to raise," said William
the dovolopment of this Industry, the
people of Portland should become
aroused to the importance, of the live
stock situation." says C. M. McAIIIm
tcr. buyer for the local stockyards.
"Many Portland merchants don't even
know where the stockyards are lo
cated." he said. "They don't know what
the livestock Industry means to them.
Those shows have done moro to en
courage the Industry In the Northwest
than any amount of advertising could
have done. But the shows are only
an outgrowth of the stockyards, which
really are the foundation for the pres
ent promising condition of the stock
growing business. The yards establish
a market, graduate the type of stock
that Is sold and Insure good prices."
Among the Idaho delegates who re
mained for yesterday's sales was Pro
fessor W. L. Carlyle, dean of the agri
cultural college of the University of
Idaho, and director of the experiment
station at Moscow.
Carlyle is an enthusiast on the sub
ject of livestock and an earnest advo
cate of diversified farming.
Farmers Advised to Feed Grain.
"A man who raises grain and sells
It is only half a farmer," he said yes
terday. "To engage In farming in the
right kind of way It Is necessary to
raise grain and feed It. Market it aa
stock ready for human consumption.
Grain is only the raw material. It
must be fed to gain ita highest value.
By Intelligent methods of feeding a
farmer can double the price of his
grain and make a profit on his stock
besides. That requires skill and Intel
ligence, but through the help of our
schools we are producing farmers that
are equipped with both."
J. Lv Hmlth, of Spokane, one of the
leading stockgrowera in that section,
waa an Interested visitor yesterday.
He says that the livestock situation
In the territory tributary to Portland,
which includes the entire Northwest,
never was In better condition. The
type of stock constantly Is improving,
he declares, adding that tha Portland
fat stock shows have done much to
bring about this Improvement.
O. M. Patterson, president of the
Los Angeles Cattle Company, who has
been In attendance all week, said last
nl;.-ht that he never has seen such ex
cellent stock. He bought a lot of Ab
erdeen Angus cattle for shipment to
one of his California ranches.
f allforalans Buy Stark.
The fact that California Is drawing
upon the Portland market for breed
ing stock Is highly encouraging to lo
1 stockmen.
William Hon, of San Francisco, beef
buyer for the Western Meat Company
of that city, also bought some sheep
and cattle. He said he never had seen
better stock anywhere.
A number of Seattle and Tacoma
packers attended the show, but did not
venture to buy anything. The prlcea
paid were a little too steep for them.
It Is said.
In summing up the week'a events.
including the competitive prize exhi
bitions, the sales and the attendance.
D. O. Lively, vice-president of tho
Portland Union Stockyards Company
and general manager of the show, said
that the excellent results surpasses
his most sanguine expectations.
It was almost phenomenal.' fie
said. "It demonstrated beyond possi
bility of contradiction the ability of
the Pacific NorthweBt to breed, feed
and fit meat animals in competition
with like efforts In any other part of
the United 8tates.
College Students Benefited.
If the show did nothing else, the
contests between the Za young men
representing the colleges of Idaho,
Washington and Oregon was worth all
tha time and the money that it cosL It
educated them In the type of animal
that Is best fitted for the market and
also afforded an opportunity for the
farmers present to learn these things

The question. 'What makes a good.
marketable animal? is answered by
actual demonstration at these shows.
It Is for the farmer and the prospective
farmer to come and get the benefits of
the demonstration."
Officials of the livestock association
which conducted the show now are ar
ranging sales accommodations for 300
ner cent more animals than were
shown this year in anticipation of next
year'a show. and ror entertaining
probably 50.000 spectators instead of
0.000 this year.

The pains of Rheumatism may often be temporarily relieved by
the application of hot cloths, liniments, plasters, etc., but as such treat
ment does" not reach the blood, no one should expect permanent
benefit from it.

the WQod of the uric acid. S. S. S. does this more quickly and cer
tainly, than any other medicine. S. S. S. eliminates this uric acid

DAIRYMEN' PLAX EXPOSITION
Meeting to lie Held Tills Morning to
Discuss Details.
Preliminary plans for a dairy stock
and dairy products exposition in Port
land will be made at a meeting to be
held in the offices of the Portland
Union Stockyards Company at 11
o'clock this morning.
This movement is the outgrowth of
action taken at the recent meeting of
the Oregon Dairymen's Association,
held In Portland. It Is the aim to de
velop the dairy industry In the North
west. Co-operation is promised from
British Columbia, California and
Northern Nevada, as well as from Ore
gon, Washington and Idaho.

ern, but the Milwaukee now will be in
position to compete actively for tho
business. It is not likely that the Mil
waukee will be made the favored llar
rlman connection at Omaha unless a
serious break In the Harriman relations
with the Northwestern takes place.
The Harriman-Milwaukee passenger
service, which was announced a few-
weeks ago, will not become effective
until, about June 1. as it is necessary
to build A part of the equipment to be
used in the trains operating between
Portland and Chicago and between Cal
ifornia points and Chicago. The Mil
waukee Is required to furnish one-third
of the Bleeping cars used on all trains
employed In this service. Its own cars
are slightly larger than the cars used
on the Harriman lines. It was neces
sary to place an order for the construc
tion of a series of special cars of the
Milwaukee standard, but conforming
In size to the regular Pullmans used
by the Harriman lines.
It is probable that when the new pas
senger service goes Into effect the
schedule of O.-W. R. & N. trains No. 5
and No. 6, which are to be routed over
the Milwaukee east of Omaha,, will be
changed and that their running time
between Portland and Chicago will be
greatly reduced, giving Portland two
1 2-hour trains to and from Chicago in
stead of one. Trains Nos. 17 and 18,
now make the run West and Kast re
spectively in 72 hours. They will con
tinue to move over the Northwestern
tracks east of Omaha. Trains Nos. 5
and 6 require more time, but it has
been the desire of Harriman officials to
change the schedule on these trains to
make them equal In speed to the two
other and faster trains.
When Gerrit Fort, passenger tratiic
manager of the Union Pacific and Ore
gon Short Line, was in Portland a. year
ago, he said that he hoped to give Port
land a second fast train to and from
Chicago within the year. It is under
stood that the new arrangement with
the Milwaukee will enable him to do
that.

ing to announcement made here yes

The significance of this arrangement
is magnified when viewed through the
Milwaukee-L'nion Paciflc-O.-W. R. & N.
passenger service through Omaha, as
it is taken to spell the early divorce of
the Harrlman-Chicago & Northwestern
combination that has existed for years.
The recent Northwestern-Northern Pa
cine agreement for service between SL
Paul and Chicago is said to be respon
sible for the desire of the Harriman in
terests to withdraw from Its affiliations
with the Northwestern.
"It simply means that we are going
to pursue a more aggressive policy in
the Portland Held." said E. K. Garrison,
district freight agent for the Milwau
kee in this city yesterday. "We are go
ing after the business here Jn every
way possible, and this Is only one of
the ways in which we hope to get In.
The Milwaukee officials look upon
Portland as one of the most promising
points In their territory and are mak
ing every effort to build up their trade
here.
It Is understood that the Harriman
lines will continue to interchange
freight at Omaha with the Northwest-
Why You Should
Baihe Internally
Under our present mode of living.
Nature, unassisted, cannot dispose of all
the waste. This waste sends its poi
sons into the system, through the blood
circulation, and brings on countless ills.
That's the reason a Physician's first
step In illness is to give a laxative.
Physicians generally, in order to stop
this accumulation of waste, are. now ad
vising the use of the J. B. L. Cascade,
Nature's cure for Constipation, which
rids the lower intestine of all waste and
keeps It healthy without drugging.
It is now being shown by AVoodard,

"Ninety-Three"
rhe Story of a Famous Name
and How It Originated.
The foremost dermatologist in France,
Dr. Sabourand, of Paris, and Professor
I'nna, Hamburg, tJermany, discovered
that a microbe caused baldness. To
prove their theory. Dr. Sabourand in
fected a guinea pig with 6ome of these
microbes and in a comparatively short
time the nnlmal was denuded of every
hair that was on Its body.
Some eminent hi.stologists and chem
ists wero employed by the L'nited Drug
Co., Boston, Mass., to find the means
of destroying these microbes and a.
remedy that would create a new growth
of hair where the hair roots had not
been entirely destroyed.
After months of study, experiment
ing and research work, they discov
ered what they claimed would do what
was demanded. To unquestionably provo
their theory, 100 leading druggists, lo
cated in as many different cities, were
requested to each furnish tho name of a
responsible person suffering from fall
ing hair and baldness. Each of tlieso
100 persons was furnished three bottles
of the preparation with a request to
give it a thorough trial and report re
sults. Five of these people failed to report.
Two declared that they had been bald
for years; that their hair follicles had
long been closed, and their scalps wero
smooth and glossy.
Ninety-three of the 100 sent in en
thusiastic reports, stated that they were
delighted with the hair-restoring quali
ties of the preparation, and expressed
sincere thanks for the wonderful bene
fits brought about by its use. In com
memoration of this, the new prepara
tion was named Rexall "93" Hair Tonic.
We sell tills remedy with the distinct
understanding that it Is free of cost to
the user in every case where it does not
completely remove dandruff, stimulate
