SOMETHING NEW!
jPLNTiFPiixrEiNTiisrE:
Preserves Fruit, Cider, Milk, Butter, Egs,
Tomatoes, Catsup, Pickles, Etc.
What is it: It is a simple, harmless preparation, free from taste,
smell and color, that has the properties ot stopping and preventing fer
mentation in all vegetable and animal foods.
What it (Iops: It Is especially useful for preserving fruits of all
kinds without cooking, retaining their natural fresh appearance and
taste.
Its Use does away with lbor, and makes what has been a hot,
disagreeable task, a delight and a pleasure. It substitutes for the Sum
mer heat of the kitchen the cool shade of a lawn or piazza.
Its Results are never doubtful when used according to directions,
and Plum Puddings, Teach and Berry Pies can be had in Winter as well
as in Summer.
Its Use is profitable and economical, for it saves one-half of the
sugar, saves the jars broken by heat, saves the fruit cooked away, and
saves the time and labor lost by the old methods.
For CMer it unsurpassed. It stops fermentation at any point
desired, and produces a sparkling beverage like Champagne,
The cpjestion is sometimes asked, "Is it injurious?" To allay all
doubts on that score, we would say that we have consulted many of our
most eminent Chemists and Physicians, and all unite in pronouncing the
use of ANTIFKRMEXTIXE as a
harmless preparation.

most fortunate for Lincoln county
people that the county was divided.
If Benton county v ill pay over to
Lincoln its fvoo nu-.- over of 1892

Lincoln county p;o'.M ty, to say
nothing of the delinquent tax that
has been collected, and its rotten

has robbed our county of, Lincoln
county warrants wuld be paid up
on presentation and there would lie
money enough .left '.a pay for tran
scribing the refolds and to pay the
expenses of the county for the bal
ance of the current vear, and that
is a whole lot more than Benton
county will be able to do for some
time, unless it levies more than a
ten mill tax for county purposes.

Visitors to World's Eair are
disposed to speak enthusiastically
of the exhibition made bv the
young and rising state of Oregon,
notwithstanding the small sum of
money her managers had at their
dispensation. If Missouri had used
her appropriation as judiciously,
what a showing we could have
made,' is a common remark. But
we of this corner are not jealous of
the glorious region from which our
county seat drew its name on ac
count of the old-time intimacies be
tween our pioneers and emigrants
and visitors to and from the Mis
souri river and Willamette country
In '39 and the early '40s our point
was a great place for the pioneers
to rest and get their teams shod
oxen mostly. How many, whose
decendants are prominent people of
Oregon Slate, rested here for a
brief space till 'grass was ready,'
preparatory to their long, weary
tramp across the plains, over the
mountains and plateaus to that then
mystic land, 'where rolls the Ore
gon ami hears no sound save Its
own dashings!' "

The Orgonian says. A (or
mai reiiuest was veoeutlv made
K.. i nu. i x .'- i,....
dieton, lor tne no'.wuouiers com
mittee, on Receiver K. V. Iladley,
of the Oregon Pacific, asking him
to take the necessary steps to ex
amine into and have determined by
the court, the status of the
various receivers' certificates, issu
ed by T, Kgenton Hogg, the for
mer receiver, and the legal rights
of the holders thereof. The re
quest further states that a large
number of these certificates were
issued for illegal purposes, and the
holders thereof claim to be entitled
to share ahead of the bondholders
in the proceeds of the sale of the
road. A belief is expresses that a
large number of these certificates
will be declared by the court to be
illegal on the presentation ol the
facts, and the request is made, that,
as receiver, Mr. Iladley may take
the proper steps to protect the
property in his charge from such
illegal claims. Receiver Iladley
presented this communication to
the court, at the same time asking
to be instructed in the premises.
After reviewing the matter at con
siderable length, the court made an
order in substance as follows:
"That the lion. Joseph Simon be
appointed referee in the matter to
determine fust, the validity of
the issue of all outstanding certifi
cates issued by ex-Receiver Hogg,
the validity of the purpose of the
issue and the use to which the cer
tificates were put if used directly
or the proceeds thereof, if the same
were sold; second, the effect of the
orders in connection therewith,
made by Judge M. L. Pipes, and
the sufficiency of the examinations
of the former referee (J. Y Whab
ley), and of his report thereon;
third, to asertain the relative rank
and right to share in any fund cre
ated by sales of the property or
otherwise as between all creditors,"
The referee was empowered to
subpoena witness and compel the
production of nil necessary papers
and to hold session iu such parts of
the United Stales ns shall be most
convenient to the full investigation
of the matters referred,
The Coos Bay Creamery turns
out 400 pounds of fine butter daily.
-N. W. Pae. Farmer. This but
ter sells in the Portland market for
not less than thirty cents per pound.
This makes an income to the cream-
cry and its pations of nearly $120
per day. The Coos Bay country is
no better dairy country than the
Yaquiua Bay country, If we had
a creamery on this Bay distributing
$120 per day or $36,000 per year to
the people there would ben marked
difference in the amount of circa
lating medium in our vicinity.
One of the grentest farces which
is daily being enacted by our state
is the niaititninauce of a weather

'Squire Luckey, of Little Elk,
was in liddyville Saturday to attend
the Alliance ami bring to market
the product of his hen raocli. He
hat not got his long-winded hounds
yet, owing to the hard times for
money and the high price of that
kind ol stock, If any of the bach
elors of Lincoln county feel like
contributing towards purchasing
the outfit it would be thankfully
received, Pish or clams will be
taken; cannot expect uny money
unless congress does something bc
sides draw salaries,
