J. W. I1AILEY SAYS
OREGON NEEDS COW
Dulry Imci-chM of tlio Stwte Are Sadly
NcKlected Price of Dulry CVrns

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."

The Cause of Many
Sudden Deaths.
There is a disease prevailing in this
country most dangerous because sodecep-
tive. 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. When
writing mention reading this generous
offer in this paper. Don't make any
mistake, bnt remember the name, Swamp
Root, Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, and the
address, Binghamton, N. Y., on every
bottle.

The old couple were eating their first
meal with their boo after bli return
from college.
"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

"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

"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.

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.

Mentone, cut In a hundred pieces!
Ah!" murmured the count regretfully.
Then Just go back and fetch me the

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."
