These men are SOO in number, and are in six whaling steamers. They have been there two years. Imprisoned in the Ice, unable to get through the passage owing to the severity of the seasons.

Howard Evans, county fruit Inspec tor, has Just received the following letter from Prof. Cordley. entomolo gist of the state agricultural college at Corvallls, regarding a strawberry pest which Is now threatening the strawberry Industry of Oregon. The letter Is explanatory and Is as follows: Corvallls. Ore., May 15. 1906. Mr Howard Evans, Fruit Inspector, Free water. Ore. Dear Sir: The large grub which accompanied your letter of the 10th Inst. Is the larva of the strawberry root borer, Sesia rutlands. This Is our most serious strawberry pest. It annually destroys thousands upon thousands of plants In the western portion of the state. This Is the first record I have of Its appearance In the extreme eastern portion of the state. 1 ' There Is no satisfactory remedy for It other than to dig up and burn all Infected plants with the Idea of pre venting the moths from Issuing. The moths from these grubs will Issue In May, June and July and deposit eggs upon other plants, hence any destruc tion of old plants should be done at once. In badly Infested plantations practically nothing can be done but to plow up the entire patch, and In fact the most practical way to control this, as well as the other pest which you send. Is to practice frequent rotation of crops. The smaller grubs are apparently The Cause of Many Sudden Deaths. There is a disease prevailing in this country most dangerous because so decep- I tive. Many sudden I deaths are caused ! by it heart dis- ; ease, pneumonia, heart iailure or r- aooolexv are often Ltbe result of kid ney disease. If kidney trouble is olln.,ltn....H ' the kidney-poison' ed blood will at tack the vital organs, causing catarrh of the bladder, or the kidneys themselves break down snd waste away cell by cell. Bladder troubles almost always result from a derangement of the kidneys and a cure is obtained quickest by a proper treatment of the kidneys. If yon are feel ing badly you can make no mistake by taking Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, the great kidney, liver and bladder remedy. It corrects inability to hold urine and scalding pair in passing it. and over comes that unpleasant necessity of beinc compelled to go often through the day, and to get up many times during the night. The mild and the extraordinary effect of Swamp-Root is soon realized It stands the highest for its wonderful cures of the most distressing cases. Swamp-Root is pleasant to take and is sola Dy au aruggists in tiltr-cent and one-dollar size bottles. You may have a sample bottle of this wonderful new dis covery ana a doojc tnat tells all ahout it, both sent tree by mail. Address, Dr. Kil mer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y. Wben writing mention reading this generous offer in this paper. Don't make any mistake, but remember the name, Swamp Root, Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, and the address, Binghamton, N. Y., on every ootue. ill ii r"i those of the strawberry root worm, Otlorhynchua ovatus. It la a Europe an species which was Introduced Into the United States many years ago, but which has attracted very little atten tion as a pest of economic Import ance. Some two or three years ago It appeared In this state In the vicinity of Mt. Tabor, where It has continued to spread and does serious Injury to strawberry plantations No methods of checking its ravages are known other than rotation of crops. Very truly yours, A. B. CORDLEY. WALLOWA COUNTY'S NEW TOWN. Is at the Junction of the Wallowa and the Mlnam. City Engineer L. A. Plckler arrived home Saturday evening from Wal lowa bridge, where he was engaged a week In surveying a new townslte, says the La Grande Chronicle. M. W. Lasley accompanied Mr. Plckler as assistant. The site Includes about all the level ground on the west side of Wallowa river between the bridge and the Junction of the Mlnam. Altogether there are 64 lots, and the main streets run north and south, practically par allel with the river. The lots are 50 feet In width, but vary some In length. This tract belongs to Attorney Edwin Snow of Boise. Just across the river the railroad company will establish a depot, and It Is expected that this place will as sume some Importance a a shipping point, as it will be the nearest rail way station for farming districts on each side of the Wallowa river. An extensive lumber output will also con tribute to the railroad traffic. It Is believed In some quarters that in case the grade is not completed to Joseph before the winter season, this will probably be the terminal of the branch until next year. DEATH OP EXPLORER PIKE. Noted Explorer Killed on Strawberry Mountain, D. H. Dimmick of Granite, was ac quainted with Lieutenant Pike, and gives this account of his death, the circumstances of which he Is quite familiar with, says the Granite Gem. 'Lieutenant Pike was stationed with the government troops at Camp Logan, in the summer of 1866. Camp Logan Is on Strawberry mountain. near the head of Strawberry creek, south of Prairie City. The day of his death he had been out with a scouting party after In dians, and it was upon his return to Camp Logan that the fatal shot was fired, and it was from his own re volver. He was dismounting from his horse when his revolver was acci dentally discharged causing his death. The body was burled at Camp Logan, where it remained until taken up to be moved to walla walla. "This occurred In the summer of 1866. There are a number of other circumstances that could be men tioned to prove this, If necessary." It Is possible to obtain relief from chronic Indigestion and dyspepsia by the use of KODOL FOR DYSPEPSIA Some of the most hopeless cases of long standing have yielded to It. It enables you to digest the food you eat and exercises a corrective influence, building up the efficiency of the di gestive organs. The stomach Is the boiler wherein the steam Is made that keeps up your vitality, health and strength. Kodol digests what you eat Makes the stomach sweet puts the boiler in condition to do the work nature demands of It gives you relief from digestive disorders, and puts you In shape to do your best and feel your best Sold by Tallman & Co. WYOMING WOOL PRICES. . Sales Start Off at Prices Ranging From 21 to 22. The following from Wyoming shows how wool sales are starting off In that rtate this spring: Representatives of Boston and Philadelphia wool houses met at Cheyenne last week with the wool growers In the first attempt to make deals for the southern Wyoming wool clip. Bids ranged from 21 to 22 Many bids were accepted. The bids are considered as probably fixing the market price of Wyoming wool for this season. Rawlins, Wyo., May 19. No wool sales have been made here except by the Jack Creek company at 22. He Had 40,000 Stolen Stamps. Harry Stewart, ex-convlct and pos sessor of many aliases, companion of "Iowa Blackle," was convicted In the United States district court at St. Lolus Monday on a charge of "bring ing stolen government property lnte the eastern district of Missouri." Stewart was arrested with a bundle of 40,000 postage stamps in his pos session following the robbery of the Shelbyville, Mo., postofflce in Decem ber. The authorities say Stewart and "Iowa Blackle" committed the rob bery. Fined for Not Tying; Teams. Judge Doust fined a man Wednes day for leaving his team united on the streets. Tha Judge says that he will fine any one who Is brought before him on a complaint of this kind. "The runaways, which are so frequent In this city. Is due to the carelessness of the drlcers," said the judge, "and the only way to remedy the situation Is to bring 'em Into court and assess a fine against those guilty of the prac tlce." Taklma Republic. Hot Summer Predicted. Hot weather Is coming, and coming soon enough, say some of the old- time Indians who have lived In this country for generations. This summer will be one of the wannest ever known If the predictions of some of the Indians prove true. It Is said that whenever the Taklma valley experiences a cold snap in the middle of May the heat of July and August Is almost Unbearable. Tak lma Republic. n A. C.
