that his trial and sentence" was unfair.
The court ordered a rehearing.
Editor Harden was sentenced to im

charges made against him, which wore
similar to those against the count, but
a later hearing of the charges against
the prince developed such convincing
evidence of his guilt that his arrest on

The decision is a crushing condemna

Enterprise, Or.. May. J3.- The sheriff
of 7? allow county has a kind heart. He
knows that while the fare at the state
penitentiary at Salem la clean and
wholesome, it Is not quite up to the
mark usually reached by the good
housewives of eastern Orea-on. And
when A. W. Kinney, a young stockman,
was sentenced to three years in prison
for rioting, the sheriff was very sad.
and by way of consolation promised his
prisoner that he should have one elab
orate "square" before he made his jour
ney to the capital city or tne state.
Kinney's brother was selected to act
as host at the little banquet, and the
two men joyously left the kind-hearted
officer behind them, promising that they
would return In due time the host to
bid farewell to his brother, the prisoner
to prepare himself for hia new suit of
stripes.
The sheriff of Wallowa county ailll
has a kind heart, but a sad one. An
hour after the little feast was supposed
to -have taken place the officer grew a
little nervous. As the minutes passed
he grew more nervous. At last he did
some investigating and was chagrined
to discover that his erstwhile prisoner
bad taken leg bail and waa already far
away in the hills, and still going as fast
as a good horse could carry him.

' paint is a matter for careful consideration.
Before you-figure it oiit, ailow-price-per.

tpwe Brothers Paint will last five years or '

will be doing weU to stand the weather for
three years. These are the good dainter's fig- -ures.
Now the cost of Xowe Brothers Taintf ' .'

, Thus you see with Lowe Brothers "High
Standard" Paint it would require 30 gallons
and of the cheap paint it would require 45 gal-j
Ions, or 15 gallons more for the 10,000 square
feet. To get at the actual cost, let us say that
Lowe Brothers Paint costs 40 cents per gallon
more than the cheap paint. , That sounds like
a big difference, doesn't it? But even at 40
cents less per gallon, the cheap paint or the
"strictly; pure hand-mixture," would cost, at
current prices .$8.25 more for the whole house
than Lowe Brothers oaint. But that isn't all.

It Is said the packing: houses at pres
ent In the Pacific northwest aro import
Ins; a larre majority of their hoars from
the middle west, and that these hogs
can be witn great profit proaucea in
Oreson. The packing house at Walla
Walla, for example, secures only 15 per
cent of Its hogs from- the eastern Wash
ington region, ana snips most or its
raw materials from the esst. Ths big
packer are building the Pacific coast's
sreatest Dacklr.s center at Portland.
and will require a vast number of hogs,
cattle and sheep. The region east of
ths cascades must turn to the livestock
business lf these packing houses are to
be supplied with sufficient livestock to
keep them going.
The declaration by so eminent a traf
fic authority as R. B. Miller that east
ern Oregon can be made a part of the
American corn oeit win occasion con
siderable surprise among old-fashioned
farmers. Mr. "Miller Is In deadly ear
nest in his statement, and means to
demonstrate its practicaomty aurmg
the next few years. The O. R. A N. Co.
ts already planning a campaign for next
ran. it win improve its program ror
demonstration trains, carrying lectur
ers and equipment for showing the
farmers the most successful methods
of diversified farming.
Tim for Questions.
In the recent demonstrations the train
was permitted to stop only one hour at
each . point. Next fall the trains will
make two-hour stops st each point,- and
allow time tor questions and discussions
by the assembled farmers. -.The hearty
cooperation of professors from the Ore
gon Agricultural college has been as
sured and the company will not spare1
money nor effort to accomplish a com
plete reversal, of present day farm
methods in the inland empire. It is be
lieved that Oregon csnnot only be made
to maintain Its preeminence .as, a wheat
producing empire, but . It can ' make a
great success of diversified farming.-
Wheat farming on a large sca.le' in
eastern Oregon, while very successful.
has had Its serious drawbacks. The
aparsely populated that the problem of
securing harvest hands has been a hard
one1. The new era is expected to usher
In a chang? that will Improve these
conditions. When It Is demonstrated
that every acre of a SOO-acre farm can
be used every year, and Its productive
capacity more than doubled, the farmer
wUl find that he has all'- he can do
to farm one half of that acreage. The
lands will rise fa Value, and he will
tell off lands for smaller farms, and
Increase' the number of farmers In the
country. The result Will be a vastly
greater aggregate crop product. There
will be more help In harvest time, be
cause the farmers will "exchange help,"
find harvost time will see them going
about as Is done In the middle west
farming repions, helping each Other
with teams and men te garner the crops.
On the trip made by the O. R. A N.
demonstration train 18 stops were made,
and -it In estimated that the lecturers
were hesrd by more than t.000 aotua;
farmers, not counting women snd chil
dren. At msny places 'the schools wars
dismissed and the children were brought
by their teachers to hear ths lectures.
At Weston the normal school attended
In a body. At every point crowds of
farmers were swatting the arrival of
the train. They gave Earnest attention
to the lectures, and showed every evi
dence of being deeply Interested in ths
doctrines advocated. There was no
disposition shown to.' discredit the Im
portance of the movement, but on the
contrary the attitude of the' farmers . la
one of cooperation la any plan hat will''
Improve their farms, populate and bet
ter their state.
