I1AILEY SAYS OREGON NEEDS COW Dulry Imci-chM of tlio Stwte Are Sadly NcKlected Price of Dulry CVrns Has Advanced Five Per Cent line tlee of Killing Calves When Horn Han Been Suicidal to Dairies. "Dairy cattle were never so scarce as at the present time, not only In Oregon and the northwest, but all ov er the United States as well. I know of no more profitable opportunity than Is offered by the present short age to the farmers of this valley than to engage In the exclusive business o raiding cows for dairy purposes." Such Is the opinion of State Food and Dairy Commissioner Bailey, who says the dairying Interests have suf fered a serious check In development by reason of the short sighted poli cies In - vogue among farmers and stock raisers, says the Oregon Dally Journal. Mr. Bailey further says: "Thousands of cattle have been shipped out of this state In the past few years to points all over the north west. Farmers have not been raising calves, but devoting all their energies to the production of milk and butter the Increased price of which products made hundreds enter the business, Having no time to devote to the rals Ing of calves, these have either been killed as soon as born or kept for a short time and sold as veal. The ever Increasing population duo to the In flux of homescekers and the estab llshment of many condensed milk factories has also had a tendency to prevent the raising of came. "The result In that the price of dairy cows has gone up In the past two years fully 5 per cent Animals that last year could have been bought for $50 now bring 175, and the de mand can not be supplied. The qual Ity Is deteriorating, too. Only the oth er day I was down to the stockyards and saw a carload of as scrawny cat tie as were ever brought to a Port land, being shipped as far north as Mlnsoula, Montana. Herd Not Kct Up. "All over the United States the sit uatlon to the same. Prices have gone up almost double In some sections In the last year or two. The cause Is to be traced directly to the neglect of keeping up the herds. In their haste to take advantage of teh high prices offered on all sides for butter, cheese and milk, farmers have had no time to raise calves. "I would say to every farmer In Oregon and the northwest that If each one devotes his time to raising cows for the dairy ft will be years before the supply will be' equal to the de mand. Never before" has there been such a lucrative return offered for as small an Investment." Valued Same aa Gold. B. G.

At any sudden deaths are caused by it heart dis ease, pneumonia, heart failure of apoplexy are often the result of kid ney disease. If iduey trouble is allowed toad vance the kidney-poisoned blood will at tack the vital organs, causing catarrh o' the bladder, or the kidneys themselve break down and waste away cell by cell. Bladder troubles almost always result from a derangement of the kidneys and a cure is obtained quickest by a proer treatment of the kidneys. If you are feel ing badly you can make no mistake by taking Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, tLj great Tcidncy, liver and bladder retnedy. It corrects inability to hold urine and scalding pain in passing it, and over comes that unpleasant necessity of being 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 wonderlm cures of the most distressing case9. Swamp-Root is pleasant to take and is sold by all druggists in fifty-cent and one-dollar size bottles. You may have a sample bottle of this wonderful new dis covery and a book that tells all about it, both sent free by mail. Address, Dr. Kil mer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y.

"Tell us, John," said the father, "what have you learned at college?" "Ob, lots of things," said the son as he recited bis course of studies. "Then," be concluded. "I also studied logic.'' "Logic," said the old man. "What is tnatr "It's the art of reasoning," said the son.. "The art of reasoning?" said the'fa tier. "What Is that, my boy?" "Well," replied the son, "let mo give you a demonstration. How many chickens are on that dish, father?" "Two," said the old man. "Well," said John, "I can prove there are three." Then he stuck bis fork In one and said, That Is one. Isn't itr "Yes," said the father. "And this Is twor sticking bis fork In the second. "Yes," replied the father again. "Well, don't one and two make three 7" replied John triumphantly. "Well, I declare," said the father, "you have learned things at college. Well, mother." continued the old man to bis wife, "I will give you one of the chickens to eat, and I'll take the other, and John- can have the third. How Is that, John?" Judge. MEXICAN CARRIERS. The Cargadors Can Carry Enormous Leads on Their 8houlders. JuBt as one finds the rickshaw every where in India, so one finds the carga dor In Mexico. lie Is a beast of bur den. ' In general be Is a comparatively small man, with broad shoulders and stout arms and legs. To look at him one would not think be would be able to carry heavy burdens. But the weight be can carry Is surprising. You have a trunk you can scarcely move, for Instance. You send for a cargador. Do gets It upon bis back, blgb up on the shoulders, and be marches off with It as easily as though It were a play thing. A life dedicated to carrying heavy burdens has made this work asy for him. A slightly built Mexican will carry over COO pounds on bis shoulders for short distances. Until recent years almost everything In the City of Mexico and everywhere else throughout the republic was car ried upon the backs of cargadors. If you wanted to move your household furniture you hired a certain number of cargadors. For bouse moving they generally work In pairs, each pair bar ing a hand truck, which they pick np and carry when it Is loaded, for It has no wheels. In the City of Mexico there are still hundreds of these band trucks, though one may now find plenty of carts, wagons and heavy moving trucks. Mexican Herald. '-I.... v,- Si WHY IS IT? The Only Piece He Cared About. "There was a French count," said a lecturer in the midst of a little sermon on selfishness, "who was traveling from rarla to Monte Carlo. On bis Journey he stopped at Mentone, where he sent for bis ralet, who bad preced ed blm and was to have met blm ,at that point. 'Alas, monsieur.' exclaim- ,ed the count's courier, poor Francois!

Then Just go back and fetch me the piece that contains my trunk keys.'" The Old Way and the New. The young lady from Boston was ex plaining. 'Take an egg." she said, "and make a perforation In the base and a corresponding one In tho apex. Then you apply the Hps to the aperture and by forcibly Inhaling the breath the shell Is entirely discharged of Its con tents."

Remarkable Admissions Made By the Foremost Prohibition Journal in This Country. The National Prohibitionists of Chicago and New York, In their Issue of Junuary 9, 1908,' quoting the official statistics, showing tfio revenues from beer and spirits during 1906 to have been $199,035,913, and in 1907, $215,904,720, In an editorial makes the following comment: "It seems to us that these figures teach, as clearly as any thing can be taught, that the kind of prohibition which we have had up to the present time Is not a cure for the drink evil and does not even approach a cure. We are frequently told that many millions, a third, perhaps a half of the popula tion of the United States, live under prohibition. The state ment la true only In a very mod ified sense, and the showing of the article In question empha sizes Its lack of exactness. "In strict fact, no part of the United States today has real prohibition. The sale of liquor Is forljldden In certain sections; the manufacturer of liquor Is also forbidden within limited areas. The forbidding U made good so far as the manufacture Is concerned, In the greater part of the so-called Prohibition ter ritory, and we begin to have considerable sections of the country where comparatively little liquor Is sold, but the re sults of drink selling In the wider sphere of Its Influence still reach the whole country, and, to a very large extent, through Interstate commerce and other means, drink-selling goes on through the whole country." 1 111
