Hodder came up from his Dog mountain home the first of the week, bringing a fine specimen of grain which' was grown on an alkali spot on his place. The heads were well filled and an acre like It would make better thnn 36 bushels. , Mr. Hodder was late getting his grain In, sowed It broadcast, was poorly cov ered and yet he will have a mosl sat isfactory yield. Burns Times-Herald. Fuel Situation at La Grande. The scarcity of coal. Inadequate shipping facilities ond various other reasons will be responsible for coal selling at 110 to $11 in this city the coming winter, according to a local coal dealer. According to prices demanded for coal laid down in La Grande, the dealer will be forced to retail the guel at about $10.75. These prices pertain to the coal that has been promised La Grande dealers, but has not arriv ed. Continued promises on the part of the producers and the railroads lead the dealers to believe that It will ultimately arrive here, but at such a cost that to realize any margin of profit at all the retail dealer will sell at the prices named, or even higher. La Grande Is face to face with as high-priced fuel as any city and per haps before the winter is over the consumers will be more than glad to get It at prices which are now Indi cated. The price continues to crawl up ward, and at no slow rate. Cost of coal at the mines, accord ing to a letter received from the pro ducers by one dealer In this city, will be about $5.50. Adding to this the cost of transportation, it can readily be seen that a slight increase In prices will shoot the retail prices to a point scarcely attalnablo by the average workman. La Grande Observer. Indian With Blue Eyes. Ont of the mysteries of Mexico If presented by the Maya Indian, who Inhabit the Sierra Madre mountains In the lower part of Sonora. Tbey have fair skins, blue eyes and light hair, and students of ethnology have always been puzzled to account for them. There Is a tradition, however, that these Indians are the descendants of the crew and passengers of a Swedish vessol wrecked on the Mexican coast centuries before Columbus discovered the new world, but Oils tradition is founded on nothing more substantial than a folklore tale current among them that their ancestors came over the big salt water hundreds of noons ago. An Anolent Prayer. Old John Ward, who was pilloried by Pops In the "nunclad" and who actually stood In the. pillory In the year 1727, when he was said to have been worth 200,000, was nevertheless a pious man. He had large estates In London and Essex and did not omit to pray for their welfare In the follow ing manner: "O Lord, I beseech thee to preserve the two counties of Middle sex and Essex from fire and earth quake, and as I have a mortgage In Hertfordshire I beg of thee likewise to have an eye of compassion on that county, and, for the rest of the coun ties, deal with them as thou pleaseth." The Vulgar One. CornbUI Magazine tells of an Eng lishwoman of high station who bewail ed to a friend the loss by death of somewhat 111 bred but extremely wealthy neighbor who had been very liberal In his help to ber country chari ties. "Mr. X. Is dead," said she. "He was so good and kind and helpful to me In all sorts of ways. He was so vulgar, poor, dear fellow, we could not know him In London, bat we shall meet In heaven." Odd Coincidence. Not many years since a pastor In New York state read In bis pulpit this portion of a hymn: Well, the delightful day will come When my dear Lord shall take me home. And I shall see his face Just then be was stricken with paral ysis and died In a few moments. Thir ty-three years before In the same pul pit another paBtor was reading the very same stanza when he, too, wai stricken and died. Scrap Book.

Smythe, of Pendleton, who was here looking after the sale of 2000 sheep to the Union Meat Co., of Portland, stated the Oregon Wool growers' association will meet on Tuesday. November 12 In The Dalles. The session will probably last for two o three days and will be of great In terest and importance to all men who are Interested in woolgrowing. Among the prominent people to attend will be Glfford Plnchot, of the forestry bureau of the government, and A. F. Potter, chief of the grazing depart ment, along with many of the local foresters. The delegation In congress from Oregon is expected and most of them have stated positively that they will attend. Mr. Smythe said, generally speak ing, the sheep Interests of the north west are In excellent condition, but the more limited range and other things which are showing up to mili tate against the Industry are subjects of greatest moment. These will be discussed at the wooJgrowers' meet ing, as will also the questtlon of en forcing the scab law and marketing of wool. He expressed a desire that sheepmen of this section of the coun try get together and organize by elect ing a delegation to represent them at the The Dalles meeting In November. Baker City Herald.

Mr. Johnson was a good, straightforward citizen, a man who took tho world as It came with out complaint. His remains were enred for by his friends. linker City Hernld, Are you ready, Mr. Pendleton Merchant? Do the people of Pendleton and the surrounding country know you are well stocked and fully prepared to receive their patronage ? Have you planned your fall publicity campaign, so that the people may be brought into closer touch and more fully acquainted with the lines of merchandise you carry! If not DO IT NOW. PUBLICITY is the life of BUSINESS. The advertising of a store is, therefore, the very life of the establishment Too much thought and care cannot be bestowed upon it. 'Tis a poor contractor that builds a house with out any plans the same may be said of 'the merchant whose wares are not made known to the public by some plan or system. Tho man who does not advertise simply because his grandfather did not, ought to wear knee breeches and a queue. The man who does not advertise because it costa money, should stop pay ing rent for the same reason. The man who does not advertise because ho tried it and failed, should throw away his cigar because the light went out The man who does not advertise because he doesn't know how himself, ought to stop eating because he can't cook. Tnke time by the forelock, prepare your advertising now, before the busy season begins. If you wish to reach the people in a DEPENDABLE way, place an advertisement iu the East Oregoniau, "Tho Paper That Goes Home." Should yqu care to investigate the cost or ask about certain space, just ring up Main 1 and the AD MAN will count it a personal pleasure to call and pivo you any information. All the news all the time In the East Oregonlan.
