(Paid Advertisement) The present law, to save the delin quent property from the title grab hers and scheming land attorneys, who are always "taking a chanty" on delinquent titles, further provides that when the mall notices fail to perform their function, then and only then, may the notice be given by publication. The Jackson law amendment leaves out the publication entirely, and thus the delinquent who falls to get his notice Is entirely at the mercy of the title grabber. Which Is the better law? Which serves the Interest of the taxpayer best?- Which is the more equltabla statute from the taxpayers' view point? The answer Is apparent to every thinking voter. Vote ."NO" on the Jackson delinquent tax bill. t NOTICE TO IWTKOXS.

AVHICII LAW SERVES PEOPLE REST? Let the present delinquent tax pub llcatlon law of Oregon alone. Whenever the voters of the state tamper with an existing statute of merit, the Inevitable result Is a boomerang. Whenever, likewise, the freak legislation fiends succeed in placing a wild etherlal plan on the statute books, the voters of Oregon hear the burden until such time as the law can be cut off the books. Such Is the hlBtory of freak legislation. Get this point clear. The present delinquent tax publication law was devised for one purpose only to pro tect the unfortunate delinquent tax payer from that peculiar brand of social parasite known as the title grabber. It is considered a model law by adjoining states and Its prac tical application has convinced all that It Is a statute of merit. When peaking of statutes, merit can only be measured by services rendered to the citizens of the state. C, S. Jackson, editor of the Port land Journal, Is attempting to sub stitute a pet scheme of his own to replace the present law. Glance at the differences between the present law and the Jackson camouflage measure: The present law provides that n mall notice be sent to all delinquents within a certain time following the delinquency date. The Jackson law does likewise. f (' V." try s ganlzatlons of doubtful purpose and loyalty. s He has conducted his office pa triotically, fairly and economically always has he placed patriotism and efficiency in the public service above party politics.

Learn the cause then cure It. Possibly it's weak kidneys. That's why Doan's Kidney Pills are so effective. They're especially for weak or disordered kidneys. Here's an Ashland case'. Mrs. S. C. McDonald. 685 B St., says: "I can recommend Doan's Kid ney Pills Just as highly today as I did three years ago when I gave my first statement. I have taken Doan's on several occasions for lameness across my kidneys and it has requir ed only a few doses to relieve me of the misery.

COAL PRODUCTION REDUCED BY SPANISH INFLUENZA A big reduction in coal produc tion ha3 resulted from the Spanish Influenza epidemic In the East, where the output In some mines has been redured from 15 to 50 per cent. Some of the smaller mines are com pletely Idle, while the larger ones are only half manned. Relief for the sufferers has been undertaken by the United States fuel administra tion in the way of surgeons and hos pitals.

Office Phone 213 Residence 101 FACTS ABOUT WOOL THE NEED for CONSERVATION Is apparent to all, In the present acknowledged SHORTAGE of WOOL, and the growing anxiety as to the question of FUTURE SUPPLY. This problem Is ever increasing in Importance because, of the tremendous demands already made, and in Immediate prospect for the QUARTERMAS TERS department in providing adequate clothing and equipment for an army whose present estimated maximum will be five million men. The requirements for such an enormous military establish ment can be shown in brief, by the TEXTILE WORLD In Issue of recent date, In the following interesting data. It has been estimated that 70 lbs. of scoured wool per year will be required for each man In active service, which, on the basis of present army estimates, will call for 350 million pounds. It will readily be seen from the standpoint of military ne cessity alone, that an unprecedented demand for this commodity has been created. In addition, the needs of the civilian population, even tho reduced to a minimum, contributes another enormous total to those of the military estimates. The extent to which restriction Is being placed on civilian consumption of wool is aptly illustrated by a recent order from the war Industries board prohibiting the manu facture of hard knitting yarns of wool until further notice. Wltn this unprecedented demand on the world's supply of wool, we find the following far from reassuring facts: The United States produces annually about 110 million pounds of scoured wool or about one-third of the wool required for an army of five million men, which appears to be the present esti mated -ultimate size of the army. The other sources of supply such as Australia, New Zealand, South Africa and Argentine are cut off on account of the enormous demands of the war department for the transportation facilities to France. So it Is up to the people who stay at home to have their old clothing re claimed by having them cleaned and pressed or dyed. Master service Is our motto. Why FISHER'S BLEND Flour? The Government has advanced the price of Oregon and Washington Wheats. To meet this advance Manufacturers of Oregon and Washington Wheat flours have increased their pri ces, until there Is little if any difference between the price of Oregon and Washington Wheat Flours and that of FISHER'S BLEND. The superior qualify of FISHER'S BLEND as com pared with other flours is absolutely the same now as before. Just as in pre war times FISHER'S BLEND is , made of the choicest Eastern Hard wheat and choic est Washington Bluesfem. If it was economy in pre-war times to pay more for FISHEiVS BLEND than for other flours, certainty it is qreaiet economy now to buy it at practically ' the same price for which oth er flours sell. FISHER'S BLEND is the ideal flour to use with Wheat Substitutes. These substitutes lack a balanced gluten. They require mixture . with a strong wheat flour. FISHER'S BLEND is a strong wheat flour FISHER'S SUBSTITUTES, including Fish er"s Corn Flour, Fisher's Milo Maize Flour, Fisher's Barley Flour and Fisher'B Corn Meal' work perfectly with FISHER'S BLEND Flour because the same painstaking care is used in the manufacture of the one as in the manufac tuse of the other. FISHER'S BLEND FLOUR and Fisher's WHEAT SUBSTITUTES ares manufactured in "America's Finest Flouring Mills" FISHER FLOURING MILLS COMPANY' SEATTLE, U. S.
