from Hartford County, who are the

At a secret conference at Bridgeport
one evening this week, held ostensibly
tor the purpose of perfecting the trans

New York. New Jersey and all New

It is still asserted that only four of the

"TWENTY THOUSAND DEMOCRATS
OF OLD CONNECTICUT."
No old sore can heal until the cause -which produces it has been removed.
External applications of salves, washes, lotions, etc., may reduce the inflam
mation and assist in keeping the plaice clean, but cannot cure the trouble
because they do not reach, its source. Old sores exist because the blood is
infected with impurities and poisons which are constantly being; discharged
into the place. The nerves, tissues and fibres of the flesh are kept in a state
of irritation and disease by being daily fed with the germ-laden matter
through the circulation, making it impossible for the core to heal. S, S. S.
cures chronic sores by its purifying action on the blood. It goes down into
the circulation, and removes the poison-producing germs, impurities and
morbid matters which are responsible for the failure of the place to heal.
S. S. S. makes the blood pure, fresh and healthy; then as new, rich blood is
carried to the spot the healing process begins, all discharge ceases, the
inflammation leaves, new tissue begins to form, the place fills in with firm,
healthy flesh, and soon the sore is permanently cured. S. S. S. is purely
vegetable, the safest and best blood purifier for young or old. Bxk on

RECORD CHERRY CROP
ORCHARDS AT THE DALLES ARE
LOADED WITH FIXE FRUIT.
Some Trees Will Yield From 500 to
700 Pounds Each Tom Richard
son Grows Enthusiastic.
THE DALLES, Or., June 27. (Spe
cial.) It is now demonstrated that
the 1908 cherry crop exceeds all rec
ords in this vicinity. In all weli-cul-tlvated
orchards the trees are loaded
with fruit, the limbs hanging like
weeping willows under their burden.
At a distance of 600 yards the cherries
predominate over the leaves and upon
many trees there are growing between
BOO and 700 pounds of fruit, the larger
amount having been marketed from
several trees.
Since labor Is plentiful, the crop will
be easily handled and all saved. The
canneries are paying 4 cents a pound
delivered, which, with the excellent
market prices "ruling, will net the
orchardists more than was realized
last year.
Today Manager Tom Richardson, of
the Portland Chamber of Copimerce,
accompanied by his family, visited
The Dalles cherry orchards as guests
of Secretary J. M. Patterson, of the
Business Men's Association. Mr.
Richardson was enthusiastic over the
beautiful sights there presented and
expressed his pleasure at the unprece
dented yield of the bearing orchards
and great amount of new acreage.
Among the places visited was the
orchard of Dr. G. E. Sanders, who is
now picking the third ton of Cherries
this week and has only begun upon
his crop. "It is a marvelous crop,"
said Mr. Richardson, "and I only wish
100 of our leading business men and
property holders could come here and
attend your Cherry Fair, June 30 and
July 1 and 2, and I believe many will
take advantage of the round-trip rate
of $3.50," made by the O. R. & N., or
take a little - vacation and make the
trip by boat, for the Columbia never
looked more like one of the world's
greatest rivers than it does now. The
samples displayed at the Business
Men's Association, while extraordinary,
do not exaggerate the general crop, for
upon thousands of trees the cherries
are as thick as they can stick."
