I have taught my soul the won-
drous power of silence
When life's forces wage their
forces all around;
'Mid the turmoil, the oppression
and anguish
Of the struggle, I have gained
a peace profound.
I have learned to grope my way
with trust unerring
Whene'er the lights ahead of
me are dim;
And to look with lifted eyes to
the horizon
To discern the glow beyond
Us darkened rim.

DOLLARS IX WHEAT' KERNELS.
If but two grains of corn could have
been added to each ear grown In the
state of Missouri, last year, the sum
of $160,000 would have been placed
in the pockets of Missouri corn grow
ers, according to the estimates of
Dean H. J. Waters of the Missouri
Agricultural college. ,
Dean Waters has made this com
putation and Issued this statement to
prove that scientific farming pays.
Better farming methods will Increase
the production of crops, every time,
and increased' production, be It ever so
small, means an enormous total in
crease In wealth.
Take the same proposition In Uma
tilla county. Suppose that more cul
tivation, deeper plowing, less sum
mer fallowing will actually Increase
the production of wheat two bushels
per acre. With 200,000 acres of land
In wheat, the total Increase In the
county would be 400,000 bushels,
vhlch at 60 cents would mean J240,
000 additional for the growers of the
county.
Does any sane farmer doubt for an
Instant that the production of wheat
can be 'increased by better methods?
When the Missouri experts calculate
upon the basis of corn kernels an!
find that such an enormous increase
can be enjoyed by Improved methods,
is It not reasonable to believe that the
same practical methods will also In
crease wheat production?
It Is to Increase the number of ker
nels to the acre, to make the yield
heavier and better and to preserve tho
soil forces that farming demonstration
trains are run. and If the farmers will
heed the lectures and follow the ad
vice of the experts, it will doubtless
be money in their pockets, no matter
how many may sneer at "book farm
ing." NO CAl'SE FOR ALARM.
Why
anybody should be seriously
alarmed over the prospects of prohi
bition Is beyond comprehension,
Umatilla county is one of the richest
in the state. Outside of Multnomah,
this is perhaps the very richest coun
ty in the state In material resources.
And the county has not yet begun to
develop.
The wheat and alfalfa crops this
year promise to exceed those of any
former year. The fruit and berry
crop is enormous and the market ex
cellent. More cattle will be fed and
marketed from the county this year
than ever before because more new
land is coming In, Portland markets
are better and It pays better to feed.
New people are settling in the Irri
gated sections every day. The trade
of the merchants is certain to Increase
as the country settlement increases.
Soon electric lines will criss-cross the
county and why such a little matter
as prohibition, even if it were liable
to come, should alarm anybody, is be
yond comprehension.
The rich and beautiful county of
Umatilla Is Immune from a small
scare of that kind. Her resources
)efy it. Her independence laughs at
it. She turns with conscious pride to
the wealth of her undeveloped lands,
her vast ranges, her Idle streams and
forgets the petty annoyances which
are born of this fear.
PKMI.KTO.VS FLTTRE.
In every Irrigated belt in the world
it is estimated that the chief city of
each distinct irrigated section should
contain one person in population for
tvery acre of Irrigated land tributary
to the city.
Tli. s is not a fanciful dream of a
ti ':er, but It is a bona fide eti
nuio which is founded upon funda
mental economic conditions and can
depended upon.
Let us take a peep into the future,
then, and try to imagine the Pendle
ton of five or 10 years hence.
Beginning at the borders of the city
on the west and extending to the
Morrow county line are over 50,000
acres of land which will be brought
under irrigation within the next few
years. The reclamation of this
amount is now practically assured,
much of the amount being now under
irrigation.
The outlook Is too optimistic. Let
us cut the estlmute in two and give
Pendleton one person for every two
acres of Irrigated land tributary. Let
us say that Pendleton is entitled to
25,000 people under the estimates of
cold-blooded statisticians. Let us give
the doubter every advantage and take
the "little end of the stick." That
outlook is superb.
And every foot of this 60,000 acres
is Cirectly tributary to Pendleton. Four
daily passenger trains now bring that
section Into close communication with
this city which is the county seat and
cinef trading center. Twice, aye, four
Utiles that many electric trains dally
will bind that rich sectional still
closer to Pendleton within an Incred
ibly short time.
Settlement Is Increasing, crops are
increasing, shipments of farm, or
chard and range products are multi
plying in that tributary territory and
there Is no reason why the traffic
will not double every year, after once
results begin to pour In from the Ir
rigated belt.
And all of this settlement and
traffic, while directly helping the
small towns, will also help and build
up Pendleton.
Let us look at the bright side and
build for the bright future. The pos
sibilities here are unsurpassed any
where in the northwest.
VOTE "NO" ON NUMBER 321.
A vicious little amendment to the
constitution Is proposed under No.
320 and 321 on the official ballot this
yar. This amendment seems Inno
ctnt enough and is couched in espe
cially patriotic langdage, but under
its velvet may be felt the sharpened
claw of selfish interests.
Thl amendment propo;s to nive
cities, the alleged power to regulate
theaters, clubs, saloons, pool rooms
and other places especially named and
which now are regulated by the crim
inal law of the state. If the amend
ment passes it will place gambling
the liquor question and Sunday clos
ing absolutely beyond the power of
sheriffs and district attorneys and will
make cities independent of counties
and state.
It Is the ruse of selfish Interests to
get control of saloons, bawdy houses,
theaters, pool and gambling rooms
and be Immune from punishment un
der state law. It is a nice dodge to
overthrow the local option law and
the criminal code of the state and
voters who favor morality and well
regulated towns are urged to vote
"NO" on number 321.
Pead the amendment carefully and
see for yourself what It Is.
Strange that the rich Irrigated
land In the western part of the county
lb being bought up largely by out
siders, by strangers, while hundreds
of thousands of dollars of home capi
tal lies Idle in the banks waiting for
an Investment. Every foot of the $100
per acre land will be worth from $500
to $1000 per acre within five years.
It Is the history of Vineland, Kenne
wick, Hood. River, Wenatchee and
every other rich section of the north
west. The pioneers pass up those
opportunities and allow strangers to
come in and grow Independently rich
from them.
A Grave Tragedy.
A peculiar Incident occurred at a
grave In Anaconda, Mont, a few days
ago. The remains of George Qulgley
were being Interred when two persons
stood at the open grave, a man and
a woman. Both gave evidence of
grief, but neither apeared in the least
cognizant of the presence of the other.
The man was Lester Qulgley of Battle
Creek. Mich., a son of the deceased,
and the woman was Mrs. Emma Rog
ers, who claimed to be a daughter.
The son refuses to recognize her
claim.
A. O. U. W. Picnic.
The members of the Antlent Order
of United Workmen will hold a picnic
at Waltsburg, Wash., June 6 and .
The Fourteenth cavalry band from
Fort Walla Walla will be present and
render music during the picnic.
Never Without Peruna
There Are a Multitude of
the United States
Who Have Been Restored
By the Use of Pe-ru-na,
There are a multitude of people in the United
States who have been restored to health by the use
of Pernna. There is no tiae trying to deny this fact.
As a rule, doctors dislike to admit it. There Is now
and then a courageous doctor who does admit It, how
ever. In such caos Peruna is prescribed by the
doctor himself. Kvon (hough the doctor suffers
pecuniary loss by such a transaction his pationt Is
benefited, which ought to be the doctor's cliiof
concern.
We do not claim that doctors generally prescribe
Peruna. But we do claim whenever Peruna is in
telligently prescribed it rarely disappoints either
the doctor or patient.

Nasal Catarrh and
Mr. James P. Bracken, 610 Tenth Ave., New York City, N. Y.,
has occupied the office of Water Inspector of New York City
for the past fifteen years. He carries on an extensive plumbing
business at 610 10th Ave. He is Post Deputy of Grand Knights
of Reigna Celia Council Knights of Columbus, N. Y. He writes
as follows :
"For nearly a dozen years catarrh has bothered me in one form
or another. I was troubled with nasal catarrh that had affected
my stomach, which troubled me most in the morning. My
appetite was poor, and I did not seem to relish my food. Indi
gestion bothered me at times, also. I was advised to take Peruna,
and I took it as prescribed for a month when my cure was
almost complete. Today there is not
system, and I can say without hesitation that Peruna cured me."
Kidney Disease.
Mr. Samuel A. Paxton, 1118 Troost Ave., Kansas City, Mo.,
member I.O. O. F. and National Annuity Association, writes :
I am a well man today, thanks to your splendid medicine, Pernna.
I was troubled with catarrh and kidney diseaee of long standing
when ! first began using Pernna. I soon found I wu getting better,
and continued taking it for four months. It cleaned out the system,
leaving me well and strong and feeling better than I have in years."
Warning to Mothers.
A writer In the National Dally
says: I give you a valuable article
in which one mother warns others not
to cover electric light bulbs with
colored stockings or anything else, but
to make a shield for one side of the
light with asbestos or something
which cannot catch fire. She makes
mention of the fact her baby was
blinded for life by a bursting electric
light bulb, so kindly send out warn
ing which should be appreciated.

Colds and Stomach Trouble.
Mr. C. G. Convers, Pres. Cold Storage Ice and
Coal Co., Hot Springs, Ark., writes:
"I had been troubled with a very serlops case
of catarrh for a number of years. Having tried
many prescriptions by good physicians, I found
myself no better.
"On the advice of a friend who had used Pernna
with good results I purchased a bottle. The
results were so good that I continued using it,
Have, perhaps, in the last three years used a
dozen bottles, which have kept me from the try
ing troubles of catarrh. I am never without a
bottle of Peruna in my house.
"One always gets relief from colds and Indiges
have Peruna."
Internal Catarrh.
Mr. Michael Rooney, 20 Fifth St., Watervllet, N.
Y., writes:
"If I had known of Pernna years ago I should have
been saved much suffering. Under carelessness and
exposure in my younger years my system got into a
very bad condition before I was aware of It,
"My doctor thought that I had catarrh of the
bladder and duly prescribed for me, but nothing did
me any good.
"My friends advised me to try Pernna, for which I
am very thankful, as it has cured me in two months,
and I am in perfect health. "
Catarrh of the Head and Stomach.
Mr. Frank Rlchtur, of Kat 2nd St., Winona,
Minn., writes: "I take pleasure In recommending
Peruna for catarrh of the stomach.' Peruna eured mo,
and I know it will cure any one else who suffers from
this disease. My catarrh was principally located in
my head and stomach. I tried many remedies with
out success. I read of Peruna in the papers, and five
bottles cured me."
