Now, therefore, I, Rutherford B.

During the past week quite a change has occurred in the proprietorship of the Plummer fruit dryers in this valley. A company has been formed consisting of Waliis Nash and Mr. Ree l man, of the English colony at Corvallis, and Nathau Whealdou, of Benton county, and they have bought the manufacturing right of the drier in this county from Jones & Sill, and have also purchased the Benton and Lane county rights. Next season they will put out canvassers and introduce -a great many driers throughout the three counties, and our people will then be able to save their fruit crops Mr. Sill has been employed by the company and will engage in the canvass next spring. Heretofore there has been a difficulty in finding a ready market for the dried fruit, but this will now be. remedied. The new company has rented the old Alden fruit drver in this city, and will buy all the fruit offered for sale and store it at that place, after which it will be shipped direct to England. We are glad to see monied men like Mr. Nash taking hold of this enterprise, as its success is thus as sured, and its success guarantees to our far mers remunerative prices for their fruits, which, heretofore, has rarely been market ed.

It is nature's remedy for assimilating the food. Unlike Castor Oil, it is pleasant to take, and unlike Morphine Syrups, it is harmless. Castoria regulates the Bow els, destroys Worms, Cores Sour Curd and Wind Colic. and allays Feverishness. What gives health to the Child, promotes rest for the Mother.
