Do you wish to know the quickest way
to cure a cold ? We will tell you. To
cure a cold quickly, it mast be treated be
fore the cold lias become settled in the sy
stem. The first sym toms are a dry, loud
cough ana snceziug. lhe cough is soon
followed by watery expectorations and the
sneezing by a profuse watery discharge
from the nose. Iu severe cases there is a
thin white cuatin" ou the tongue. What
to do ? It is only necessary to tafce Chamb'
erlaiu's Cough Remedy in double doses every
hour. That will greatly lessen the severity
of the cold and in m my cases will effect

An adjourned meeting of the city council
was held last Monday evening, Mayor Bur
nett in the chair, and all the members of
the council present.
It was evident from the fall attendance,
and the interested look on the faces of the
councilmen, that business of much import
was to come np before the meeting, and
the city fathers were ready to proceed.
The committee appointed to confer -with
the water company, consisting of R. M. Da
yieson, R. E. Gibson and J. O. Wilson, sub
mitted their report, which ia substantially
s follows : Tho water company offer to
sell their plant to the city for the consider
ation $28,000, reserving all wood on band,
and new pipe ordered and in transit. The
offer was signed by Q. R. Farra, president
of the water company. .

very conclusively that the curl leaf of the
peach is caused by alternate frost aud

ing his own experience here and in Eng
land. William Allem of Odirego, read an
interesting paper on "Sugar Beets," con
cluding his remarks by saying, that while
beets from Newberg showed a large -percen
tage of siicar when analyzed, it was not
practicable at present for Newberg farmers
to adopt them as one of their crops. At
the same time he urged them to experiment
with them, "using them as root feed for their
stock, until the amount of good beets raised
in Oregon would warrant the establishment
of a sugar factory.' Under the head of
"Dangerous Guests," Prof. Washburn dis
cussed injurious insects, emphasizing the
fact that ma'ny orchardiats are unwittingly
entertaining gncsts in the orchards who
will, if not "asked to go," sometimes cause
them loss. - Hia remarks were illustrated
