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?

Southern Pacific Will Operate
Demonstration Train in
Willamette Valley.
UNDER DIRECTION 0. A. C.
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.

Portland and Salem will be cut down
within the next 30 days to one hour and
35 minutes. The present schedule allows

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."

Rain Drrves Deer From Mountains.
ALBAXT, Or.. Aug. 29. (Special.)
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

among; the members of the various
churches. 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. '

As", fan . as . .Portland . Methodist
churches are concerned. It Is believed
that very few,' ff 'any,' changes will be
made. Dr. Benjamin. Young, who was
transferred from Salt Lake City. Utah,
last year, will probably be returned to

Dr. T. B. Ford, who is serving his
fourth year at Sunnyslde church, will
probably be returned. It is also be
lieved that Rev. M. C. Wire, pastor of
Patton church, will remain. Rev. F. S.
Young has had a very successful year
at St. John, and will probably go back
there for another year. Rev. C. T. Mc
pherson Is In the midst of building a
new church at Epworth, . corner of
Twenty-sixth and Savler streets, 'and
In all probability will be sent back
there to finish up that project.
At Sellwood church. Rev. L. O. Poor,
who Is filling a portion of an unex
pired term, will receive another year's
pastorate there, it is expected. 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. Selleck. pas
tor of the First Methodist Episcopal
Church, is making all preparations for
the annual conference session. I( Is
expected that it will be one of the most
pleasant ever held in' Oretton. Salem
is a historic spot in Methodism, it be
ing the seat of Willamette University,
the denominational school. The first
church Is centrally located and Is spa
clous, affording a fine place for the
meetings.
