"For washing linen suits," said an expert laundress, "uso only tho best whlto Bonp uud novcr rub tbc soap on tho cloth unless tuero is a lot of bard dirt to be taken out. In tho majority of cases tho suits Boak for an hour or bo m eoany water, putung tuotn in when tho water is qullio hot By tho time It is cool enough to permit wash ing freely tho soiled parts are suffl clently soft to admit of cleaning with out very much scrubbing. Rinse lu several waters, always until tho last water is perfectly cienr, then pass the garment through tho stiffening water, after which It Is pressed us dry as posslblo in tho cotton sheet. "Somo stiffening Is necessary to give the linen tho nppcarjinco of freshness from tho tailor. On tho other hand, states' in the American iNorcn the greatest care should bo taken' not west to participate in the North western Products Exposition to With the holding of meetings of state exhibits commissions in Seattle, Portland, and Lowiston, Moscow and Sand Point. Idaho fSis' week, arrangements have V wg f been comDleted for all seven to have too much stiffening.. That ruins the appearance of, what would otherwise bo a perfectly washed suit. You -want Just enough to give tho linen body and yet not take away from its suppleness "In washing colored linens, excepting tans and browns, color nil tho waters and try always to avoid putting soap on colored linen, and also do not uso water hotter than blood heat, allowing tbe linen to soak only a few minutes" ipace. be held in Minneapolis, Nov, 12 to 23, Minnesota as a state will have the larcrest exibit, Governor Eberhart having named the com mission months ago and the com mission at once buying extra MADRAS, OREGON A.

YOU WILL LOSE Taxes on burned timber land. $8.00 per thousand feet in wages circulated. The sale of groceries, hardware, and supplies used in the cutting and manufacture of the timber, You own good opinion of your public spirit, if you fail to put out or report timber fires the same as you would report a fire in your neighbors dwelling. before washing It out and putting it in n second water of tho same tempera' ture and colored. Tnroo waters are generally enough for a colored linen suit. Where the suit is not much soil ed two will bo enough. The stiffening water must bo colored Just as was that in which the -washing and rinsing was done. "After wringing in the cotton sheet care must be taken in hanging both coats and skirts for the drying process. Fresh air for colored linen and snn for the white that Is the ideal drying process. House drying never gives the satisfaction that a good laundress wants for her work. Steam drying should be a last resort. It injures tbe texture of the goods and leaves the colors less brilliant. "The figures on which suits get their final shaping are the kind used by good dressmakers and tailors. I have all sizes and covered so that the suits get as nearly as possible tbe shape of their owners. I keep the figures or rayed in fresh petticoats and shirt waists, and when the freshly washed suits are on them I'm not ashamed for any one to walk into my shaping rooms. Each suit is taken from the figure and placed in its box for ship ment. Great care is taken to see that every part of it is perfectly dry.1 HOW TO MAKE CANNA BEDS. i i SUMMER MILLINERY AT COST LOOK AT MY STOCK AND SEE WHAT BARGAINS I HAVE TO OFFER ISA E. B. CROSBY I es) I 1 I. O. O. F. Lodge Meets every Wednesday night. Strangers are wel come. Perry Henderson, N.G. Lewis H. Irving, Secretary Oo Not Plant For Many Varieties or , Colors. As cannas are subtropical plants they thrive only Jn warm weather and should be planted only when the season is well advanced. May 20 to June 15 is best for the territory between latitudes 40 and 45. The plants are deep rooted. therefore the bed Bhould be dug deep. It also is Important to provide plenty of plant food. Three Inches of well rotted manure spaded into the soil is not too much. Do not elevate the cen ter of the bed, but leave level so water will not ran off. If the bed is to contain several va rieties of cannas much care should be given to the selection of the varieties, If the bed is to be viewed from all sides put the taller varieties in the cen ter and use the shorter kinds for tho border rows. Your florist can give ad. vice about the varieties best suited for the purpose. Do not plunt too many varieties. Un less it is an exceptionally large bed two or three will be' better than more. For small beds a dozen to eighteen plants arc enough. It Is good taste to use some other plant for a border. If tall growing cannas are used the fountain grass is unsurpassed, and for dwarf kinds such plants as coleus, dwarf sal vias and dusty miller are serviceable. Balfour-Guthrie & Co. FOR ' SACKS, TWINE and ROLLED BARLEY P. W. Ashley, Agt. Phone Your Orders How to Walk Correctly. To attain correct, carriage one must walk erectly, and to achieve this there is nothing better than trying to walk with a book or similar article on the head. This is sure to keep one from devel oping the swaying of the body more to tbe one side than tbe other. Stays that force the opposite of this rule should be discarded and destroyed, for they are not fit to wear. If they -work against the erectness of tho car riage they are really fl menace to tho health. Throw out your chest. Better to have people say that you are rio straight you appear to be failing over back ward than to be round shouldered In appearance, If not in fact. 7 EC B Shamrock TOMMY McCORMACK, Prop. Fine Wines, Liquors and Cigars FURNISHED ROtiMS New and Up-to-Date Quarters How to Make 8aeh Curtains. A most attractive sash curtain may be made of linen, but It must bo of rather a sheer quality. Japanese grass cloth or Bohemian linen is best to use. If the uyelet embroidery Is combined with either fillet or cluny insertion tbe effor-t will be very handsome. The sides and bottom may have a very narrow edging of the lace or they may be French hemmed and the bot tom trimmed with a tassel edging. How to Keep WateV Cold.

North Dakota and South Dako ta will have state exhibits made bv their commissioners, both of whom are experienced men with large number of assistants. The counties of Northern Ida ho will combine to put on the state exhibit from that state this year; Orecron will make its bow to the public this year with a large and complete exhibit collected by the Portland Commercial Club and the Oregon Develop ment League. It will be the first time the staje as a whole has collected a display for any land products exposition and the pent up energy of a. number of years is being expended on the exposition his year. Governor Hay, of .Washing ton, named a commission a month "ago. This commission met in Seattle last Thursday and pilt men in the field to collect and install the exhibit. Alaska's exhibit will be se cured and installed by Faclon Joslin, of Fairbanks, assisted by Seattle interests who made the exhibit possible last year. From the Mississippi River to the Pacific Ocean there are com munities which consider them selves the "bread basket of the world," and each believes its farmers around about can pro duce the world's best wheat. All tsver this terrtory men are out selectng five bushel samples to enter in the $5,000 prize con test to be held in Minneapolis in connection with the Products Exposition. Here are some of the communi ties which are actively collect ing samples of wheat to win this prize: Kitzville, walla Walla, Dayton and Davenport, Wash.; Great Falls, Bozeman, Lewiston, Glendive and Kalispel in Mon tana; Grand Forks, Bismark, Fargo and Devil's Lake in North Dakota; Ontario, Burns and Prineville in Oregon. South Dakota and Minnesota are also after the prize. A member of the Minneapolis Chamber of Commerce has writ ten Will A. Campbell, manager of the Exposition, offering $1,000 tor the best five bushels of wheat at the show in November, no difference what the variety or where it is produced. He asked that his name be withheld but offered to send a certified check if the management would consi der it the first bid for tho prize wheat. It is not decided as yet what will be done witn the best wheat.
