' All stores, wholesale and retail, han dling distilled liquors for beverage pur poses must immediately take an inven tory of their stock to determine the amount of revenue to be paid under the tax known as "floor tax." In carrying out this work. Collector "Wardell has divided the city into districts, and his deputies are assisting in the inventory of stocks of liquors and cigars.. . There is said to be about SO percent more distilled spirits in San Francisco at present than ever before. One firm is said to have more than 500Q barrels on which it will he obliged .to pay an additional tak- of $2.20 a gallon, of about $500,000 on the lot. A large portion of this stock of liquor was saved from the fire .in .1909. It is said that fully rralf of -the wholes sale liquor houses in San Francisco will be forced out of business because of the tax of $2.20 added to the normal tax of $1.10. Many houses stocked heavily with liquors when the food control bill was before Congress, some borrowing heavily and investing all available funds to "beat" the provisions of the bill. Now these firms find themselves charged a heavy tax, on these large stocks and many are without ready money to meet the unexpected demand. Chaplain Bill Discussed. WASHINGTON. Oct. 4.

Healthy blood contains small amounts of antitoxins that' neutralize the poi sons of invading germs or destroy the germs themselves. That Is why so many people exposed to disease do not contract it. Those whose blood is weak and therefore lacking in defensive power are most liable to Infection. Everybody may. observe that healthy, red-blooded people are less liable to attacks -of cold and the grip than are pale, bloodless people. To build up the blood there Is one remedy that has been a household word for a generation. Dr. "Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People. They tone up the entire system, make the. blood rich and red, strengthen the nerves, increase the appetite, put color in the cheeks and lips and drive away that unnatural tired feeling. Plenty of sunlight, good wholesome food and fresh air will do the rest. Two.books, "Building- Up the Blood" and "What to Eat and How to Eat."

BIG CROPS ARE ASSURED Section to Be Irrigated Contains : About. 2 2,00 0 Acres and Cost Is. Estimated at 11 an Acre. BY ADDISON BENNETT. PRINEVILLE, Or., Oct. 4. (Special.) The people of Prlneville are rejoicing today for the reason that the two banks of the city had turned over to them this forenoon the proceeds of the $900,000 bonds issue of the Ochoco irrigation project. Of course It has been known for some months that this money would be ."forthcoming when needed, for the bonds'" .'were underwritten by reliable bond dealers; but there are always doubting Thomases who have to see the cash before they will believe it can be produced. t This Ochoco project is by no means .hew to me, for I have been over it more than j once and have written about it for' The Oregonian at least twice. But it was then "up in the air," so to speak. It was then a "proposed" project, one in which the Prlneville people believed and In which they were putting their money for preliminary work, and the money was yet to be raised to complete the work. Less than two years ago I was told here by some of the doubters that the engineer in charge, R. V.r. Rea, would never get anywhere; that the project would "die a-bornin"." But his work has stood the acid test and he will emerge from his task as a doer of big things, as an engineer to be relied upon, as one whose works will stand as a monument to his ability. ' All Entitled to Praise. The officers and directors of the proj ect are entitled, however, to the high est praise for the success of the work. It was their prescience that secured Mr. Rea. It was their standing in the community that secured the money for the preliminary work. They had great obstacles to encounter. They had dif ficulties to overcome that would have swamped men of less pertinacity, of less nerve. But they never let up in their work. After once putting their hands to the plow of progress, they never looked back, but turned a fair, full furrow straight and plain. There was no graft, no petty bickerings they pulled together one for all and all for one and always for Prineville. Here is a list of their names and their offices: T. H. La Follette, president; R. L. Schu. secretary; R. L. Jordan, treasurer; Jay II. Upton, attorney; R. W. Rea, engineer. The board of direc tors is as follows: T. H. La Follette. John Grimes, E. T. Slayton, F. Fred Hoelscher and Carey W. Foster. The project receives its name from the Ochoco River, which flows down from the mountains from the east and discharges into Crooked River a couple of miles to the west. A dam is to be built across the Ochoco Valley at the east end of the project, which extends to the west some 12 miles and embraces 22,000 acres of irrigable land. So the cost is to be about $41 an acre. The lands .are. all in private ownership and some 7000 or 8000 acres have been irri gated with an unreliable supply for periods varying from two or three to 20 years. No Kxperlmental Troject. The elevation of the lands is about 2700 feet, but such is the contour of the valley that this area is not subject to destructive late Spring or early Fall frosts. And the owners of these lands know Just what crops they can raise and know how to handle the land and the water. K is by no means an ex perimental project. The crops will be principally alfalfa, wheat and oats. Fifty bushels of whe?t will be a fair average per acre, two cuttings of alfalfa, yielding four tons to the acre. will be a fair yield of that legume. So it seems safe to say that, it the land is equally divided between wheat and alfalfa, there will be a half million bushels of wheat and over 40,000 tons of alfalfa each and every year from this project. That does not take into account the pasturage nor the Intensive farming such as the production of po tatoes, kale, rutabagas, carrots and such like products. Jefferson Myers made a close study of the project for some of the bond buyers and . his estimate was that $2,500,000 was a fair estimate for the ultimate annual yield of these lands. I might go more deeply into this ub- ject, but as this is Prineville's day of rejoicing, I will state that before Jan uary 1, next, Prineville will have the railroad locomotives tooting in the streets, for the grading of the 19 mUa between here and the O.-w. R. & N. and the North Bank roads, near Redmond, Is all done, the ties are accounted for and the roads jointly will furnish the steel and provide the rolling stock. And the Interstate air opens here tomorrow. The city is overflowing with guests and good cheer, the sun of pros perity shines brightly and clearly over all, and I'rinevllle, dear old Prineville, always one of the best towns in interior Oregon, is today just on the eve of tak ing her place among the most progres sive cities in the West. And the people of Prineville have worked out their own salvation. The Government wouldn't irrigate their lands, eo. they are doing it themselves, and at a far less cost. The great rail road systems would not build a railroad to their town, so they are doing it themselves, thus showing that the Prlneville people have faith in them selves, in -their town. In their lands, in their locality and in their country. And to show their patriotism they will next year nearly double their output of cereals and livestock. Gas Kills Mother, Children May Die.
