eastern Oregon.. The average rain
fall at Lakevlew has been 26 Inches

ernment reports, and a reclamation
project, covering 60,000 acreg In the
Goose lake valley, Is an additional at

ers. "Lack of title to the lands has
kept railroads from giving transpor

those lands and the sale of 11,992
farms will give the Inhabitants and

company so that buyers may have s
looted for them the kind of a farm
they want.
"Five of these clubs are now being
organized In this county. The lands
will be opened some time In Septem
ber, 1909, by which time two railroads
will have been built, and It Is e'tslmated
that fully EOOO people will be urea-ent."
CLEVER GIRLS SAVE DAY.
When Cosluincr Fall, They Invent
Needed Footwear.
Lewlston, Idaho, May 21. Twenty
young women, the flower of the Lew
lston high school, played their parts
In the classic Greek drama "Alcestic"
this evening sans sandals, their pret
ty pink feet being protected form the
stage carpet by thin-soled, home-made
footwear In Imitation of the Grecian
sandals common in the day of Apollo.
Spokane cost urn era failed to supply
the sandals, so the girls Imporvlsed
footwear out of paper soles, bound
with dainty ribbons.
Rather than spoil the play some of
the girls declared they would appear
sandalless and stocklngless, but their
ingenuity saved them this discom
fiture and few people knew that the
Grecian goddesses hid their dainty
toes In Imporvlsed sandals, as their
flowing gowns completely covered
their feet.

The Best Alarm Clock.
If you have use for an alarm
clock to wake you up these
spring mornings, then you
should get a good one. A poor
alarm clock Is much worse than
no clock at all. You cannot de
pend upon a cheap clock picked
up probably In a place where
the knowledge of clocks Is un
known. When you buy a clock
from us you know that If any
thing goes wrong we are ready
to make good with the proper
repairs.
AU alarm clocks guaranteed
nnd cost from $1.00 to $2.50.
