The cold weather of the winter; Just past killed a great number Of the vines. r'Tho advice I am giving to the peo ple of Oregon now. Is to quit raising nops. Raise oats, and fruit. The prices on these staples Is away up. There is always a market. As for hops why there isn't a profit of a cent a nound In them any more. If we quit raising hops for awhile the market will gradually resumed again. "The only place In the United States where better hops are raised than In Oregon is In New York. Hops produced there are richer In flavor. Ours are Jareer. but have more water In them.

March 20. After an ex tended session at the White House, (secretary or state Knox announced to-nlg-ht that Ambassador Thomas O'Brien would remain at his post In Toklo and that Minister John O. A. Leishman, who Is now at Constantinople, would be ap pointed ambassador to Rome to suc ceed Lloyd C. Orlscom. No changes will be mado among the tha ambassadors for several months, and probably not until autumn. It Is expected that even Ambassador Orls com will remain at his post until that time. It' Is both his desire and the de sire of tho department that he com plete the work incidental to the Ameri can relief to -the earthquake sufferers. Minister Leishman therefore will re main at his present post for some time and his successor will not be chosen until later. Secretary Knox also announced that Charles H. Sherrlll, a lawyer of New York city, would be appointed to the post of minister to Argentine, which Is now vacant. Spencer Eddy was the last American minister to that post and he was to have been succeeded by the present assistant secretary of state, Huntington Wilson, when he was ap pointed to his present position. Henry Q. Ade will be minister to Spain, according to Mr. Knox. Further changes of ministers will be made from time to time as the various governments signify that the appointees proposed are acceptable to them. There Is a disposition, howeveY, on the part of Secretary Knox and the president to go slowly, so It will probably be several months befora J.he designations are all made. There was some surprise when Secre tary Knox failed to announce the ap pointment of Richard Kerens of St. Louts as ambassador to Austria to suc ceed Charles S. Francis. It had been assumed that the Austrian government has been sounded as to the acceptabil ity of Mr. Kerens and that he would be designated at once. (Soeetal ItlsMtca to Tba Jouraan Astoria, Or..

Tha legislature at Its recent ses sion passed a law providing for a sec ond judge In the Fifth district, as the work has grown to such an extent that it no longer could be properly handled by tha Incumbent, Judge McBrlde.

Herbert Anderson, promoter of the smelter at Ponderay, Idaho, misrepre sented the facts concerning the bonds of the Idaho Smelting and Refining comnanv. now in the hands of a re ceiver for debts aeereKatlnK J400.000, and that he Issued an unauthorized order for the delivery of S285.0OO worth of bonds of Oeorge S. Brooke, president or the Fldelitv National banK of Spo kane, are among the allegations made by w. D. and T. L. Greenough. wealthy Spokane mine-owners, who are suing Anderson. They claim that when they became interested in tne smelter tney Knew nothing of Brooke's claim for 180,000 and that all the bonds not issued to credl tora. we re available to ralaa f und a for the ODeration of the plant. They declare that though Anderson asserted all the creditors were wining to take bonds for their claims only about $69, 000 out of $275,000 indebtedness was naid with bonds. The Greenoughs hold $87,000 in bonds; the other $240,000 are held by Brooke on an assignment from the First bank of Ponderay, which advanced the money to the smelter. The stockholders are bewildered at the Increase of indebt edness and the strange issuance of the 2,000,000 shares of treasury stock owned by the company. If the properties of the Idaho Smelting and Refining com pany are sold for debts none of the stockholders will ever get a penny.

Red Corpuscles, C, Wall of Veins. D, Epithelial Layers, E, Contracted Pigment Cells, They are the white corpuscles, the "Littla Soldier of tht) Blood." Modern science has demonstrated that these white . corpuscles are the disease-fighten of the blood. See the picture in the circle, and tbe ex- ' planation of how they fight for you. They de stroy the millions of germs, which pass into our bodies with every breath we take. When the , blood is poor and thin and deficient in its proper supply of white corpuscles, the invading germs warming in, and finding the defending force too weak to oppose thm, take possession of the body and begin their work of destruction. This is the beginning. of an attack of an in fectious disease such as the grip, pneumonia, and - fevers, and even of the winter eough or eoM. The germs of such diseases sweep across the surface of the delicate mucous membranes of the throa, tbe nostrils, the air passage of the ' lungs. Nothing can stop their attack or de feat their ravages, but pure, disease-fighting , blood, the blood that Hood's Sarsaparilla makes, It is also owing to tbe thin, impure condition of the blood that scrofulous troubles, eVierc a, boils and pimple, develop, and rheumatism, ca tarrh and other disease gain a bold. - When such troubles are once establishes!, noth ing but ft medicine that will absolutely and irre sistibly east them out ran permaxiettly eura. As blood-purif yicg tocie axl bealtb- boilder, Hood' Sarsaparilla is pure and sure. It is pleasant to take, bright, clear and bracing to the last drop, with no depressing after-effects. It has cured thousands of people and is prob ably taken in more homes today as a reliable family medicine than any other preparation. It is essentially a blood-maker, a digestive, an appe tizer, an invigorator that nourishes both brain and body and enriches the blood. If you are ill, weak, run-down, have "that tired feeling," if your appetite is poor and your digestion bad, Hood 'a Sarsaparilla is just the medicine for you. If your disease is' of long standing or of constitutional nature, like scrofula or eerema, or catarrh, if it is caused by acidity f the blood like rheumatism or neuralgia, or pleurisy, Ilood'a Sarsaparilla possesses just the qualities necessary to cur yon, and you will find them in this medicine as in no other.

Huge red placards have been posted throughout the country warning the people of the possibility of war. Five army corps will be mobilized and placed on a full war footing for service in Servia and Bosnia. Six Danube monitor are ready to sail for Semlin, on the opposite side of the river from iJeierraae. xney are com manded by Captain Gustave Nanta. The ruard boats, which are manned by about 7& per cent of Croatlans and Italians, have been fitted 'up with new bensine engines. The seventh army corps has also been placed on a war footing and the men called up for active service. At Arad, Nary Varad, Kassa, Eger, Noves, Sacentes and Miskolss the schools have been closed. In Cettlnje, the capital of Montenegro, all males over 1 years old are armed and ready for action. Italian and Russian of ficers have arrived to Instruct the Montenegrins in the use of the new quick firing guns. One of the most prominent statesmen of Hungary today said: "England encouraged In the Balkans hopes which It knew never could be fulfilled. The speeches of Sir Edward Grey and Premier Asquith following the annexation of Bosnia and Herze govina were Incautious and unwarrant able. Grey was particularly aggressive as to the Austrian policy. "The British politicians aro nadly mistaken If they imagine their voices are of paramount influence in European affairs. If England had a military sys tem similar to Germany s tne situation would be different.
