frequent desire
to pass it or pain
in the back is
also convincing pAof that the kidneys
and bladder are out of order.
What To Do.
There is comfort in the knowledge so
often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer's
Swamp-Root, the jtreat kidney remedy,
fulfills everv wish in curiug rheumatism,
pain in the back, kidneys, liver, bladder
and every part of the urinary passage.
It corrects inability to hold water
and scalding pain in passing it. or bad
effects following use of liquor, wine or
beer, aud overcomes that unpleasant ne­
cessity of being compelled to go often
during the day. and to get up many
times during the night. The mild and
the extraordinary effect of Swamp-Root
is soon realized. It stands the highest
$or its wonderful cures of tbe most dis­
tressing cases. If you need a medicine
vou should have the best. Sold by drug­
gists in fifty-cent and one-dollar sizes.
You may have a sample bottle and a
book that tells all
about it, both sent free
by mail. Address Dr.
Kilmer & Co.. Bing­

writing mention this paper and Cco't
make any mistake, but rem tuber the

UMATILLA COUNTY PROS
PECTS WERE NEVER BETTER
Past Winter Has Been Wet and the
Ground i* Filled With Moisture —
No Wind or Dry Weather to Un­
cover the Root* of the Gram —
Sugar Beet People are Optimistic
and Hopeful and think Umatilla
County the Beet B«>t of the West.
Not in the memory of the oldest
settler has there been su<h a good
outlook for a rousing crop of wheat
in Umatilla county, as at present
Tbe ram* of the past winter and
tbe light fall of snow have run into
tbe ground, and to rise in moisture
at the root* of the browing crops
Tbe ground has been frozen but lit*
tie and none of the water that has
fallen, has run off tbe ground There
has been but little dry weather or
heavy wind, to uncover the roots of
tbe grain acd the wheat is in excel­
lent condition and is now growing in
tbe warm days that are interspersed
among the welcome rains.
Old settlers say that it has been
one of the wettest winters in the
history of the county and that a good
crop always follow* a wet, cloudy
winter.
The dryest kind of spring weather
can not now damage the crop to any
great extent a* tbe ground is so full
of moisture.
Some of the footbill
farms have been almost too wet. but
the soil in this county is such that
wet weather doe* not damage a crop
as in heavier soil. As soon as the
rain stops falling, the top of the
ground is dry. as the water, runs into
the ground an<l is held in the soil,
and rise* gradually to the surface as
the warm weather progresses and the
vegetation attracts it upwar«!
In the foothill districts, spring
plowing is in full blast, and 1 at Echo
and other warm portions of the
county, gardens have been planted
and the spring work is well under
way.
It is thought by the sugar beet
people who art­ now experimenting
in the Echo district that tbe early
spring here, will give the beet crops
such an early start, that they will be
strong enough to resist the dry sea­
son. which will not come until tbe
beet plants are well grown and deep­
ly rooted The critical period in the
life of the beet will come in this
county, just when the freshets come
from the high mountains and when
there will be a surplus of water in
al) the streams, and from every
feature of the surroundings, this is
to be an ideal sugar beet district.
RETURN FROM CALIFORNIA.
W. M. Scott and Family Enjoyed a
Pleasant Winter Among the Orange
Groves.
W M Scott, the well known farmer
of Helix, accompanied by Mrs Scott
and their son. Ira. returned this
morning from an extended visit in
Southern California.
Tl*f>y left Pendleton in November
and have been at every point of in
terest In the state of California, in
eluding Los Angeles and San Diego
and return home in the best ol
health, and report having had a most
enjoyable winter in the sunny clime
and orange groves of Southern Cali­
fornia.
There is no spot equal to Umatilla
county, however, in Mr. Scott’s judg
ment, and he is a stronger Oregonian
than ever, if possible.
FISH SCREENS.
Laggard Reluctance to Obey the Law
by Irrigation Ditch Owner*.
There has been some discussion
among the Irrlgatlonist* and the fish
wardens of late concerning the
guarding of the head-gates of the
main ditch’-a
It ha* been noticed
that fi*h come '.n from the riven, »nd
after getting *o far down the dftehe*
that they are stranded, die
The
matter was referred to Fish Warden
Van Dusen of Astoria, and he has
require«! that screens be put at the
head of all of the main ditches
The imgators are not
much in
favor of the scheme, as they claim
that a screen fine enough to save the
fish will soon clog up the drift and
refuse. *0 that the flow ot the water
will be hindered
The game people
have also recognized this, and A. W
Nye of this city has had a letter
from Mr. Van Dusen in which it is
stated that it will be sufficient if
the ditch owner* put screens small
enough to stop the larger fish. Thi*
would not hinder tbe flow, and would
at the same time save the majority
of the fish, and orders to that effect
will be issued by Deputy Warden
Nye in a short time
