B. E. WRIGHT. Advertising Is a Boomerang Unless Backed by a Good Repu tation, Responsibility and a Desire to Give the Best Possi ble Return for the Money Invested. Fakers in every line of. business advertise, and it requires some intelligence to select the wheat from the chaff. Some advertisers are very strong in prom ises and very weak in performance. During the past 12 years, my dental practice, which includes some of the best families in Portland, has increased year by year, until today I am doing the largest dental business in the Northwest. There is a reason. I make no promises that I can't fulfill. Every piece of work turned out from this office is seldom equalled and cannot be excelled elsewhere. Skill, gentle ness and modern methods are what I guarantee you. Can you ask for more? GOOD SET OF TEETH ON RUBBER PLATE . $5.00 BEST SET OF TEETH ON RUBBER PLATE . $8.00 .

Dr. James Wlthycombe, Director of Oregon Experiment Station, Will Bo In Charge Dairying to Be Made Feature. More elaborate than any Bimllar train ever run over a railroad In the Pacific Northwest will be the farming demon stration train to fca operated through the Willamette Valley by the Southern Pacific Company In October. Just an nounced by R. B. Miller, general freight igent for the Harrlman lines In this territory. The train will be run under the direction of the Oregon Agricul tural College, and Dr. James Withy combe, director of the Oregon Experi ment Station, will be In charge. He will have a number of assistants, and lectures and demonstrations will be given that are calculated to Improve farming conditions and methods. A striking feature of the train will be a number of dairy cows that will be carried in special freight cars and housed In patent stalls. These animals will be high-class dairy cows and they will be milked at various stations by a compressed air milking machine that will be demonstrated to the farmers. The milk will be run through separa tors carried on the train and the vari ous processes of dairying will be Ihown. Modern Dairying Methods. The cows will show the farmers the best types of dairy cattle and their proper care will be 'Impressed upon the farmers by object lessons. The most modern and successful dairying meth ods will also be taught by what is believed to' be the most forceful way. that of actual demonstration. There will be a number of cars given over to exhibits of various kinds that will be highly interesting to the farm ers. Modern agricultural Implements of every sort will occupy one car. An exhibit of grains and grasses will be carried. Materials for horticultural In struction, showing the best methods of budding, grafting, pruning,' spraying and packing fruit, will be carried, and a special series of object lessons will be given to show the farmers how to fack fruit commercially. Demonstrators with the train will show the farmers how to make milk tests for butter fat and how to carry on Innumerable modern scientific processes. The train will be run as a special and will stop at- the principal places In the Willamette Valley. The complete itinerary has not yet been made up: A numbr of passenger cars will be included in the train to carry Dr. Wlthycombe and .his staff of assist ants as well as railroad officials who will accompany the train. Demonstrate v Scientific Methods. "The demonstration train has been undertaken for the purpose of educat ing and assisting the farmers, so far as It Is possible to do so, in better and more scientific methods of farming." said Mr. Miller. "The railroad com pany also hopes to stimulate the pro duction of dairy, horticultural, livestock and other diversified farm products, of which the Willamette Valley does not now produce in sufficient quantities to supply the home demand. "This is evidenced by the fact that butter, eggs and poultry are shipped here from the Kast in carloads. Fresh cream is being shipped by express in considerable quantities from California to Portland and from Utah to Washing ton points, which could Just as well be supplied from this state. Live hogs are brought here from Nebraska in train loads. Many carloads of cured meats, lard, etc., are brought here from the East every year. "These commodities should not only be produced here in quantities' suffi cient to meet the home demands, but there should be a large surplus for shipment to other states. By stimulat ing the production, the railroad com- , pany feels it will aid in increasing the population and add to the wealth and prosperity of the country." TRACK XAID TO "HILLSBORO Oregon Electric Branch Will Soon Be Placed In Operation. Track to Hillsboro. a distance of 22 miles from the' main line at Garden Home, was completed last night by the Oregon Electric Railway Company. The Hillsboro line is the first feeder to the main line, and as soon as the overhead wires are fixed in place, trolley cars will be running into the Washington County city and later on to Forest Grove, where the branch will terminate. Work Is go ing forward on tracklaying between Hillsboro and Forest Grove. Mail and telegraph service that is the equal of that afforded anywhere will be given the people living along the Oregon Electric Railway's lines within the next few- weeks. Application has been made to the Government to carry the mall to towns along the line, and this will, no doubt, be granted. The Postal Telegraph Company will operate over the railway's telegraph lines and all stations on the road will be Postal offices. At present there is no- telegraph service for com mercial business and the mail is brought to the various towns by rural delivery. - The time on the main line between Portland and Salem will be cut down within the next 30 days to one hour and 35 minutes. The present schedule allows two hours and 15 minutes for the 60 mlle trip. The track is being put In first-class shape and ballasting. Is well along. More speed can be made as soon as this wqrk is accomplished. New equipment lately purchased in the East will commence to arrive September 1. Recent purchases of rolling stock amount to 25 boxcars, 25 flatcars, six passenger-cars ard two express-cars. Freight service will be started about the middle of September. Freightyards at the foot of Porter street, in South Portland, are being graded ready to lay tracks and the new station at Salem has been completed. The company is putting up a model sta tion at Tigardville. ins first Visit to Portland W. T. Robson, Canadian Pacific Ad vertising Agent, Admires City. E. J. Coyle. assistant general passenger agent for the Canadian Pacific Railway, with headquarters at Vancouver, B. C, visited Portland yesterday, accompanied by W. T. Robson, advertising agent for the company at Montreal. Mr. Robson had not visited Portland before and was much impressed by the beauty and com mercial prominence of this city. He went over the city thoroughly to familiarize himself with the outlook here, so that he may describe it intelligently In future ad vertising. "I find that business generally Is much improved." said Mr. Coyle, in speaking of conditions throughout the territory. "The pendulum is swinging the other way after the depression of the past year, and the prospects are excellent. In trav eling through the territory, I find a bet ter feeling and more confidence expressed everywhere." GOVERNOR T0BE SPEAKER Will Deliver Principal Address at Labor Day Demonstration.

Rains in the mountains the past few days have caused deer to begin trailing down to lower levels and good hunting Is be ginning in the Cascade Mountains in this part of the state. Ever since the season opened the deer have been far back in the mountains, generally in inaccessible places, but now they are coming down into better hunting grounds- CONFER AT SALEM Oregon Methodists to Meet on September 25.

This is largely because of the exceptionally large number of transfers announced last year by Bish op David H. Moore, who presided. He was at the time resident bishop for Oregon, with episcopal residence at Portland, and he caused many sur prises. Among; his important assign ments was the exchange of pulpits be tween Rev. Clarence True Wilson, then at Grace Church, and Rev. W. H. Heppe, then occupying the pulpit of Centenary Church. This change was made without any consultation what ever with either minister or. the offi cial members of either church, and is said to have been also without the knowledge of any of the district su perintendents. Some other changes of a startling nature were features of the memorable session, which was held In Grace Church, Portland. Bishop Edwin H. Hughes, one of eight new bishops "elected -at the re cent general conference at Baltimore, will preside at Salem at this session of the annual conference. He is resident bishop of California, with headquarters at San Francisco, and his chief task Is assisting In the rehabilitation of the Methodist Episcopal Churches which were wrecked in the earthquake and fire. This le perhaps the most gigan tic piece of work ever undertaken by Methodists. Many of the largest and most costly houses of worship were de stroyed, and hundreds of thousands of dollars will be necessary to rebuild. Being a new member of the "episco pacy, Bishop Hughes Is being watched with great interest in his first annual conference sessions. His work is said to be highly satisfactory thus far. He has been very conservative In his con duct of affairs, and it is therefore felt that he will not care to make a very great number of pastoral changes. ' List of Portland Pastorates.

At Central Church, Lower Albina, plans are on foot to build a new edifice, and that Rev. J. T. Abbett will be returned there seems assured. At Kelly Memo rial there Is also a building project on, and it is believed that Rev. S. J. Kes ter will be sent back to finish up. Rev. E. H. Bryant will probably be returned to Laurelwood, and Rev. Harold Oberg to Montavilla. It is probable that Rev. Lewis F. Smith will be returned to Trinity, and Rev W. R. Jeffrey, Jr., to University Park. No change is expect ed at Mount Tabor church, where Rev. J. W. McDougall Is In charge. At Salem, Rev. W. H.
