The initial announcement in which we told of the special cut price sale on the Oregon Buckskin Suits created a veritable sensation. We expected great attendance well we were not disappointed a bit. Our sales force was taxed to the utmost in our endeavor to wait on all that came. Every visitor to the store expressed the greatest astonishment at the wonderful value of these suits. We were told very often that the suits wre even better than the advertisement would lead one to expect. That is the "Woolen Mill Stores" way however we never overstate, and quite frequently understate in order to have things sound reasonable. If you have not yet visited the store and seen the Oi", Buckskiu face to face, come here by all means tomorrow. OREGON BUCKSKIN DETAILS The cloth is an Oregon product made exclusively for our chain of Woolen Milll Stores by the Thos. Kay Woolen Mills of Salem, Ore., an 1 the Brownsville Woolen Mills of Brownsville, Ore. The cloth in these suits is fully guaran eed by both the Mills and ourselves as to color and wear. The suits have been made up under tin personal supervision of Mr. Bowman, and are as perfect lr made in every detail of workmanship and lining as suits costing treble the amount at the best mer chant tailors. They are cut along the latest lines of style. The variety of coloring and patterns are broad enough to suit any taste. !Li !l '. -Ml?. Particularly handsome are the' 'dust proof grays" and the browns. The price has always been $13.00 and $18.00, but during the special cut price sale $12.50 gets on.- of these Buckskin suits. .. . ;,W ll-f:vi.& ii tV.i& i!

HINTS ON PLANTING THEM. Qlvo Each Tree Enough Room S That When Fully Grown Us In dividual Beauty Will Not Be Lost. Care of Young Stock. Street trees and their condition are largely an Index, for they liavc much to do with the character and growth of n city or town. While they add much to the comfort and pleasure of the Inhabitants, the evident determina tion to be comfortable bespeaks the character of the people. Not only do street trees concern the present, but assures one of still better results In the futuie. If ono but takes the trouble to look the matter up It will be found that u majority of the larger cities ea&t of the Mississippi started as well planted, well cared for Ullage:!. Often tlilh marvelous growth may be traced back to where some enthusiastic individual or small band of workers determined that their village should be made beau tiful and attractive to home seekers. Many can. if they would, fctart this work with n swing and gall that coulu uot fall to succeed, thereby adding to the pioperty values of both tolf and jielghbois. "Why stand ye IJly by : Do not overplant streets. Allow each tree sufllcleut room so that v hen fully crown its individual beauty will uot be Tost Trees so planted always make the more satisfactory growth. Their root systems start forth equally dis tributed In all directions. If placed too close to each other when of largo slw the space between trees Is soon ex hausted of plant food and completely tilled with roots; then the feeders make a frantic rush at right angles to the row. seeking plant food wherever most easily obtained. Iu country districts this often results in these starving trees sending their roots into orchaids comparatively near the surfaco nud nearly destroying the nearest row of fruit trees. A most thorough preparation of a deep soli bed for tho young trees will start a rooting system down deep In the natural reservoir of plant food, and the feeders will not then push up near the surfaco to forago because of short rations at home. Hoots reaching into and interfering with orchard or garden may in tho case of old trees bo cut by digging a trench parallel with tho row and cutting them off. If tho tops are also properly pruned, tho tree will not need such an extensive root system to bupport it. If tho street tree is glcn an occasional feed and cultivation, ns is always tho case with orchard tiees. it might be Induced to board at home for all time. Tho need of ample room, if we are to secure the best tree de velopment. Is strikingly shown In tho case of tho common blue gum. a forest von wiion irrown in commercial plan- l tatlons or shelter belts It sends up a tall, straight shaft witu scaicoiy u branch of any note. When btandlng alone It develops a handsome, umbra geous form and often makes an Ideal shade tree. Ono of the most serious drawbacks t streot tree planting tethe inability to "obtain capable men to dbhT work. In spito of tho fact that men on every hand may bo found who claim to be trained gardeners, very few are at all competent to plant trees or caro for them after planting. Even tho best gardeners are seldom trained in those lines which havo to deal with street trees, and a well trained orchardlst Is to be preferred for tho planting, while special training la required for intelli gent pruning. If more good men wero available, our larger cities and towns might be encouraged to appoint treo wardens or city foresters. As It is, tho authorities feel somewhat helpless, and the matter drifts along, tho property owner planting and the wind or wlro stringer pruning until no respectablo trees are left. Some day tho city or town awakes to find It has no street trees worthy tba name, and n move ment Is niado to begin all over again, reclaiming such trees ns arc still of value, rooting out and replacing old marred stumps, and only by a general upheaval Is It possible to place the mu nicipality on the road toward tho city beautiful goal. Young street trees growing vigor ously need attention in a variety of ways. Abnormal and useless growths must be cut off, aud so must tho top at a proper height, the latter to Induce branching Into a low heading treo rather than continuing upwnul Into u spindly and Insufficient exclamation point on the landscape view. All young tiees, as a uile, need staking and tying, and no halfway mcasu:o3 should be adopted In this work. Have tho htnkes strong enough to leslst the heaviest windstorm and the cord equally effect he. Tho latter should bo lirge and soft that It may not cut Into the tender bark as woll as making a closely knit knot that will not como untied or slip. Frequent and copious Inigatlons must lie ghen dining the first summer following planting, moie especially if unusually largo holes have not been dug, so ns to Induce a free, farreaching root system. It 13 well t5 remember the"old admonition, "As the twig is bent the tree's Inclined." A few minutes' pruning when young will remove tho necessity of unsightly "hacking" In tho future. Keep the Lawn Clipped. Nothing adds a touch of refinement to the homo place so well ns a neatly clipped lawn. Of course It takes work, but what doesn't that brings any satis faction? THE CLOVER. SOUK sins of the Illy and daliiy and rose And the pannles and pinks that the summer time throws In the green, grassy lap of the mad der that lays Bllnkln" up at the skies through the sun shiny days. But what Is the lUy and all of the rest Of the flowers to a man with a heart in his breaflt That was dipped brlmmln' full of the honoy and dw Of the sweet clover blossoms his b.ibr hood knewT I never set eye on a clover field now Er foot round a stable er climb In the mow But my childhood comes bach Just ni clear and as plain As the smoll of the clover I'm snlffln' again, And I wander away In a barefooted dre an Where I tangle my toes In the blossoms that gleam With the dew of the dawn of the morning of love Ere it wept o'er the groves that I'm weeping above. And so I love clover It seems like a part Of the sacredoHt sorrows and joys of my heart. And wherever It blossoms, oh, there let mo bow And thank tho good God as I'm thanking him now. And I pray to him still for the strength when I die To go out In the clover and tell It good- And lovingly nestle my face in Its bloom While my bouI slips away on a breath of perfume.
