EXPECTS IX) SAVE MONEY AND COMFORT, amy how Grow Plan to Cover Ground so Trnlii Suction Will Not Raise Dirt Expense of $10,000 Will Re Saved Section Men Will Be In Mtruoted to Cultivate Instead of De stroy. Walla Walla, Wash, May 14. To save $-10,000 in wages and at the same time control to some extent the dust which troubles travelers, Is the plan of General Superintendent Buckley of the O. R. & N., who this year proposes to allow weeds to grow along the tracks wherever it Is poslble. Instead of keeping the track clear of weeds by cutting them with shovels, the sec- tion men are instructed to allow them to grow, keeping them trimmed close to the rails that they may not come In contact with the wheels of cars and cause trouble. It Is estimated that the company spends $40,000 each year in cutting weeds, and, Incidentally,' keeping the soli worked so that winds catch the dust, and during hot weather enough of It Is carried along the rapidly-moving trains to almost strangle the pas sengers. Wherever weeds have been allowed to grow dust has never troubl ed, and this fact has caused Mr. Buck ley to try the experiment of allowing weeds and grass to cover the ties, especially the soil at the ends of the ties outside the rails. . The company Is now figuring on sowing a short, thick grass on the line to form a mass of roots to prevent the dust from raising. It is said .that some heavy, short grass can be grown for this purpose with splendid results, and even where the track has to be worked a great deal the grass wll soon t.ike root again raid cover the surface so that dust will not raise by the suc tion of passing trains. Roadbed treatment with oil gives splendid satisfaction after the oil set tles, but the dust picked up by trains before the oil disappears In the soil has a tendency to stain clothing as If touched with fresh grease, and con siderable complaint always follows the use of oil on this acount. THE BEES AND THE PROVES. An Economic Fnble on tlic Social Conditions of Today. New York City, May 15. (To the Editor of the East Oregonlan.) And (drones) owned all the fields and flowers and had fine wire screens It came to pass that the male bees placed over them with large easily read signs prominently displayed warning the busy bees to keep off the fields and flowers. Others read "No trespassing allowed under penalty of the law," still others read. "This Is private property, beware of the dog." etc. In addition the drones hired giant hornets with long sharp stingers and fed them well to see that the laws were enforced. As a result the busy bees were Idle, discontented and hun gry and unhappy. So they held meet ings and swarmed Into the public squares and passed resolutions and ap pointed committees to call on the drones and demand that the screens bo removed and that they be alowed to gather honey from the fields and flowers. Put the drones preached to them and told them that the reason they were poor and hungry was because they were too fond of the Juice of the poppy-corn flower, and that they had too many baby DQCTfJR ADVISED K F After Other Treatment Failed Eczema in Raw Spot on Baby Boy's Face Lasted for Months Cried with Pain when Washed. ECZEMA WAS CURED AND HAS NEVER REAPPEARED "Our bab; ecwma on h y boy Broke out witn is face when ono month old. One place on the slue of his face the alza of a nickel was raw like beer teak for three months, and he would cry out when I bathed the parts that were sore and broken out. I gave him three months' treatment from a good doctor, but at the end of that time the child was no better. Then my doctor reconvjiended Cuticura. After using cake of Cuticura Soap, a third of a box of Cuticura Ointment, and half a bottle of Cuticura Resolvent he was well end his face was as smooth as any baby's. He h now two years and a half old and no eczema has reappeared. I am still using the Cuticura Soap; I think It la the finest toilet soap I ever used.

I'aniou.H lYoix'ify of Suinptor District Slay lie. Itejiivenntoxl. It Is rumored In Sumpter today that the Columbia mine, one of the old stand-by producers of the Sumpter district, is to have new ownership, says the Raker City Herald. While there Is nothing definite giv en out It is understood that New York parties have had mining engineers and experts on the property at different times within the past few months making reports on conditions of the mine, grade of the ores, and possible Improvements. Charles Lelbensteln. according to the rumor, Is the man who is making the deal and If this be true there Is some reason to believe that there may be a foundation for the rumor, as Mr. Lelbensteln has In the past some very handsome transactions in Idaho min ing country. Should the Columbia change hands It will probably add a new Impetus to bees which caused ov-' mining In eastern Oregon. Not that Dr. C. F. Lathrop, an osteopath physician of Seattle has brought suit for $75,000 against about a score of other physicians In the building In which he has offices. It is alleged that they petitioned the owners of the building to have the osteopath re moved from the building and in the oetltion they alluded to him as a quack. , er population nnd congestion and that they peeded a higher tariff to keep out foreign pauper honey which caus ed over-production so that the drones and the hornets couldn't possibly eai It nil and therefore .they must be pa tient and cheerful until the drones could get rid of It and then they would take the covers off the fields and flo-wers nnd give them a chance to go to work again. In the meantime they should be ap tlmlstlc nnd cheerful and happy and love ono another nnd be honest and respect the rights and sacredness of private property, especially In the fields and flowers which was tho very foundation of society and that they should never forget that there had always been poor bees as long ago ns the great mine has not been a wonder ful payer In the past, for It has, but a deal on a- Inrge property always ex cites more or less Interest from min ing people and causes Investigation In to surrounding mines nnd country that probably otherwise would not be made.
