WII1.KE I'AKMEKS DON'T FA KM This morning five carloads of Ne braska hogs passed through L'matilK County on the way to the packing hou-es at Portland. Think of fat hogs being shipped 2000 miles to mar ket through the best hog raising dis- j trict In the United States! Think of a country free from chol era, free from all the diseases to i which animals are subject, buying Its i bacon and lard of a country where .. ... , - , tl.ere is a constant struggle with de- v i st -it 'in- stork illseises' vist.it.ng stock uiea.s. It Is a most unreasonable situation, j If Nebraska farmers can raise hogs I and ship them 2000 miles to Portland j a a profit, cannot Umatilla county i farmers ship them 2.10 miles at a still greiitr profit? Is it not really worthy serious consideration from the practi cal farmers of this rich section? The Kansas City Star says of a spectacle In keeping with this just mentioned. "It may sound a tiifle strange," says a Star reporter who has been giving his attention recently to a study of farm life, "but I saw farmers buy- Ing their butter and eggs, and in one ; " ult of more than a century's expe lnstance a farmer buying chickens ' -ence with a representative form of for his Sunday dinner." pveinment. and now that 'the ma- It is doubtful whether that Is In th J-'flty. or the plurality as the easy line of progress, though the reason j o.v has spoken the results will be j Gra(,p (. p.nstwick.

La.t spring when the matter of vr.tins nut the saloons wa? before the people "f Umatilla county, numerous i-ubt.irr.ial but misguided citizens de dared that If Jtueh a "catastrophe" should be visited upon the county, that all business would suspend, so- 'ety would be demoralized and the towns of the county Id vanish from the map. So much for the prophecy. .Vow for the faets. On September 7. li'il, two months after prohibition was voted on thfl (oijhty, the public schools of pendic le ri opened with an Increase of about i per rent in atterubmr e over last voir 'vh'-n there were about 30 sa loons in Pendleton. Iurlm; the months of July and .'.vjru'-t every merchant In Pendleton did a larK'-r cash business than In the preceding July and Aurust when there were about 30 saloons in th city. On Thursday, September 10, the city rif Pendleton granted a street car franchise to a company of capitalists, something that had not been pre xented to the city In a tangible condi tion while Its 30 saloons flourished. That Pendleton Is a better town mill has better prospects today than she ever hid, Is a fact borne out by a thousand testimonials that are be yond dispute and unanswerable. That biiieer things are within reaeh of Pendleton today than ever before Is also Indisputable and absolutely certain. In two years from now, It Is confi dently expected that the entire state of Oregon, Portland to the contrary iii'twithstaudiiiir. will be as dry as the Arizona desert, from a liquor stand point, and Washington will not ! marly so juicy as at pivs-nt. either. Th'nss are 'doing over the line and soon the boast that Walla Walla is irettinir I'niatllla county money In ex change for booze will be an empty taunt. Hasten the day. good people. THEY LIKE Till: LAW. Although complicated with first sicond and third choice- clauses, features unknown In the Oregon pri mary law, the primary law of the state of Washington has given first- IC.iss satisfaction in its first trial. I The politicians were opposed to the Washington primary law and fought bitterly, but the people passed It. ' The same condition prevailed in Ore I g'n. The same condition will prevail I...,. .... .i , "iit'nin nut f air ii iiieMMiuiiii iioii- Pcians. wherever there are men en-i gaged In the game of politics for; money. Hut what has been true In Oregon I and true In Washington, will be true i I if every state which adopts the prl- j i niary law the people will be satis- i ! ficd, because it restores n. .Hem their s. vereign rights as citizens. The Spokesman-Review says of the law i and its first trial in the state of Wash- i n .t in in;, iii . In view of the large number of can didates for many nominations to be filled by Tuesday's primary election land the variety and character of t ie I if sues presented, it w as Inevitable that ! there should be some dis: thre i!houM be some dls.tlfsictl..n a' the results of the vote. . ... .... ... , Only one candidate could be nonil- ''" u " eai.n pany wr t.un to be filled, and every contest which Evolves victory for the winner must involve defeat and disappointment for the men who lose. But It is significant of the wide spread satisfaction with the general workings of the law that there has been little bitterness in the contests which this first experiment with Its workings Involved. The principle of majority or plu rality rule Is deeply Implanted in the minds of the American people as a '"""""""'ns or me re.-pecue pariu. , Under the old convention system almost every nominating convention j iiivolvi'd contests for nominations Mr. Hryan proposes, If elected, to make John V. Kern a member of his cabinet, says Success Magazine. His original idea Is that the vice-president nominated In a great national convention should be something more J than an ornamental office boy to the t'nited States senate. If the Xebras kan were running the household h? would make Mary Ann stop playing the piano and help with the dishes. To Mr. Hryan's pVoposltion the only Injection made thus far Is that It is unconstitutional. Just what the mak ers of that venerable document had In mind when they created this office, history does not state; they do say that there were great Jokers In those days. We only know that every Ameri can boy to'lay looks rorwara to me time when he shall grow up and be eligible to decline the nomination to the vice-presidency, and that th! American people have become pro ficient athletes through long practice l:i running away from this honor. Since we are such sticklers for con stitutionality, why not at least bring that Instrument down to date? Of what use Is a worn-out constitution of the model of 1789? We propose an amendment provid ing that the vice-presidential nominee be possessed of a fortune of not less than a half million dollars (forfeit able In caxe of escape); that he live la a doubtful MiUe; that he be nom inated tilelly so as not to wake the delegates; and 'that his salary lie paid by the comic weeklies.

This Is the way the story goes: A prominent farmer In the vicin ity of Krupp, expecting a chicken cmip to arrive, sent one of his hands, a newcomer, to feach It. On arriving in town the man saw the depot: loaded it on his wagon and started for the ranch. On his way back he met a man In uniform with the word "agent" on his cap. "Hold on," cried the official "What have ypu got on that wagon?" "My boss' chicken coon," was the reply. i. nir-Ken coop be blowed, ex claimed the official. "That's the Sreat Northern depot."

So writes H. I). Jones hi the Technical World Magazine for July. To pique the curiosity of the reader, let It be first explained. In all seriousness, that If a farm cultivated in this way s leased It should be un derstood that when the tenant moves he is at liberty to take the soil with him. The soil used In this method of farming must be of unusual richness. The story begins with the efforts or two women to gain a livelihood from Mother Nature. They leased fiv acres of land in llerkshlre, England, litter they found that five acres was too much land, and that they could find full work for themselves and for students who flocked to them to learn how it was done, with profit for all. on a piece of ground less than half the size of that first taken. The teachers of the women were a French gardener and his family, w h i, ' with an acre of land In France, sold $2500 worth of produce In a year. The scene at the farm Is thus describ ed by one who visited It and made the photographs that go with the ar tlcle. In a bare plowed field stands a square palisade of zinc plates enclos ing about three-quarters of an acre. Pehlnd it the French gardener ami the women who lease the land have wrought what looks like a sheer mir. acle to anyone unacquainted with the system. The ground Is covered with Invert ed bell glasses of the kind known In Europe as clot hers, t'uder each hell at the time this writer visited the farm were five lettuces. Lettuces were growing around the hells and NO. 9238 The American National Bank Formerly The Pendleton Savings Bank Capital, Surplus and Profits $250,000.00 Savings Bank Facilities With National Bank Securities. 4 per cent.

Pe-ru-na Tablets. Some people prefer to take tablets, rather than to take medicine in a fluid form. Such people can obtain Peruna tablets, which represent the medicinal Ingredients of Peruna. Each tablet Is equivalent to one average dose ot Pe runa, other vegetables sown broadcast were coming up everywhere. In each of rt number of frames four feet square were 30 lettuces, a mass of carrots and cauliflower. The entire secret of the growth of these products before the regular sea son Is In the cropping and the soil. Every Inch of the soil bears nt least three crops a year, each of them an ticipating the season and therefore producing fancy prices. This remarkable method of making every Inch of land count Is described ia detail by the writer and the article is Illustrated with Very Interesting photographs. ItFFOKM IS XKCKSSAKY.
