Wheat Damaged.
The warm days and cold, frosty
nights, have damaged the wheat some
In this vicinity, and farmers are get
ting rendy to reseed as soon as the
weather will permit. The fruit here
Is all right, but should the weather
continue as It has, there is danger of
It being more or less damaged.
Paper Railroad.
Milton has a new railroad built on
paper from here to Wallula. The en
terprise was born last week and will
be full grown (?). It is only 22 miles
from here to Wallula and a level
grado all the way and It would be an
easy matter to build a road. Further
developments await our plan for a
write-up.
School Trouble Settled.
The trouble over the location of an
other school house in district No. 10.
has been settled and a new house will

a part of the district will see it, but

know, but since the "bachelors' ban
quet" and one can see. To cut a long
story short, there are more "old bach-
oiors got girls and more "old maids
gov neaux now than Milton ever
thought of, and as a result there will
bo more weddings In Milton this
spring that ever was dreamed of In
our town and the preaches will have
lots of "eagles" in their pockets, see?

WANT A RAILROA-.
Milton Citizens Appoint- a Committee
to Run a Preliminary Line.
Milton, Feb. 23. Milton is out for
another railroad, and its citizens and
the farmers adjacent have held two
meetings and appointed a committee
to run a preliminary survey and set
grade stakes.
At the last meeting, hold Thursday,
a committee composed of "Lucky"
Shaw, William Goodman and William
Nichols was named to carry out In-
strnctions.
The line as projected will traverse
30 miles from a point two nnd one
half miles above Milton to the Colum
bia River, to connect with tno North
ern Pacific railroad.
The interests behind the project
will make the preliminary survey,
and then if it shall fall to Induce the
Northern Pacific to construct . the
road, the farmers and citizens will en
deavor to build It themselves.
The Irrigation Association formed
at Milton about a month ago met in
that town Thursday and appointed a
committee to carry out a survey be
tween Milton and William Goodman's
ranch on Pine Creek. It is proposed
to construct a barrel flume, and the
area to be irrigated comprises lfi.OOO
acres.
MORROW COUNTY WELL IN
THE OIL FIELDS.
Columbia River Development Com
pany Discovers Strong Artesian
Flow May Prove to be a Solution
of Irrigation In the Adjacent Dis
trict. Ros Beardsley, of the Columbia
River Development Co., was In the
city this week for the purpose of leas'
ing more lands in the Castle Rock
oil district on the Columbia river,
says the Heppner Gazette.
Mr Rpjirdslev stntps Hint tlio mm
pany is very much encouraged over
tile oil prospects. An oil expert from
Ohio, who recentlv inspected the clis
ti let has mnde a very encouraging re
port.
The Columbia River Development
Company, composed of Heppner and
Arlington people, was organized last
spring, and has been boring with a
churn drill.
Two wells have been bored, the
first one at Alder creek where a hole
was put down 100 feet. The drill
was moved to the mouth of Dead Can
yon.
When the drill reached a depth of
114 feet at Dead Canyon, there was
such a flow of water that drill opera
tions wore stopped. Tho water still
continues to flow and In spouting out
or the groud makes a noise that can
be heard for quite a distance.
Drill operations will lie commenced
again In a few days.
Whether oil is found or not, the
discovery of artesian water In this
portion of the country along the Co
lumbia, known as the sand country,
Is of no little importance. The appli
cation of water would transform this
now barren waste Into a rich and pro
ductive district that -would support
thousands of people.
Already tho discovery of water has
created quite an interest in this dis-
inci. oeverai surveying parties are
now on tho ground and the land Is
being taken up.
Abovo Coyote and Long Island op
erations will be commenced In drill
ing for water.
Arlington and Dalles parties will
soon commence drilling about five
miles south of Castle Rock.
The artesian water found bIiowh a
temperature of 09 degrees.
As the altitude is only from 200 to
300 feet abovo the sea level in a good
portion of the sand country, it Is
thought there will be plenty of water
on both sides of the river wherever
wells are drilled deep enough to bo
on a level with the river.

Wasting
Away.
Lack of fat in the food is the
beginning of a wasting con
dition. So many people that
we meet are thin and keep
getting thinner. Perhaps
there are some in your own
family. Look for the cause
and it is more than likely you
will find that such people do
not eat the fatty portions of
their food. They either will
not or cannot cat fat, and yet
it is the absence of this ele
ment in their ordinary food
that causes a wasting con
dition. For such people we offer
Scott's Emulsion as contain
ing in the most palatable
and easily digested form the
element of fat they need. It
supplies, and more than sup
plies, the lack of fat in ordinary
food. A small quantity (a
teaspoonful for a child and a
tablespoonful for an adult
three times a day) will enable
the body to get the strength
and proper fat supply that it
needs.
Scott's Emulsion is cod
liver oil so prepared that all
of it is utilized by the system.
Raw cod liver oil is not only
repulsive to the taste but only
a part of it is taken into the
system the weakened organs
being unable to digest it all.
The emulsion passes almost
immediately through thestom
ach and into the blood. The
stomach is scarcely aware of
its presence there. It shows
itself first in the nourishment
it affords and the new strength
that it gives. The weight
gradually increases and the
flesh becomes firmer. It is
the return to health ; the stop
ping of the wasting condition.
Scott's Emulsion has supplied
the elements of fat that the
body needed.
It is not a question of how
much you eat or can eat or
even of appetite. It is rather
what becomes of the food.
Does it contain the proper
nourishment and the right
proportion of fat? If the food
does you no good it does you
harm, for digestion is work,
and when the body is in a
wasting condition the stom
ach must work to some pur
pose. Scott's Emulsion saves
a great deal of this work, and
what is more makes it effec
tual. We piace on every package
of Scott's Emulsion our trade
mark label of a man with a
big fish on his back. It is
our personal guarantee that
the emulsion is right in every
respect. If this label is miss
ing you are not getting the
genuine Scott's Emulsion,
which means that you are not
getting the full value of the
oil or the kind of a prepara
tion you need.
We'll send you a sample free upon
request.
